0:00:15 > 0:00:17APPLAUSE
0:00:17 > 0:00:19Hello and welcome to The One Show, with Matt Baker.
0:00:19 > 0:00:20And Alex Jones.
0:00:20 > 0:00:23With awards season in full swing, tonight, we are excited to be
0:00:23 > 0:00:25launching our own awards.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Recognising and celebrating all of those staff who go
0:00:27 > 0:00:30the extra mile in the NHS.
0:00:30 > 0:00:38We'll have all the details on how you can take part in a moment.
0:00:41 > 0:00:46After the uncertainty of travel plans last week, we wanted a guest
0:00:46 > 0:00:51would come no matter what and we had a good chat.Yes, and we think we
0:00:51 > 0:00:56nailed it!
0:00:56 > 0:01:03Put it down! You chose the wrong family!
0:01:03 > 0:01:10She is here, thank goodness!
0:01:10 > 0:01:12She is here, thank goodness! Please welcome the new Lara Croft in Tomb
0:01:12 > 0:01:19Raider, Alicia Vikander!
0:01:19 > 0:01:21Raider, Alicia Vikander!We alluded to the awards season, did you watch
0:01:21 > 0:01:29them?When I grew up, I had a tradition of setting my alarm clock
0:01:29 > 0:01:34and I would go out in the middle of the night. But I have been any tour
0:01:34 > 0:01:39now promoting our film so I had one night when I slept, I have been so
0:01:39 > 0:01:42jet-lagged. But I woke up in the morning and I did like most people.
0:01:42 > 0:01:48You had a look online! You could not go because you had a hot date at The
0:01:48 > 0:01:53One Show tonight. That is the wake the cocky Proms balls eye! You are
0:01:53 > 0:01:59in the Academy, you would win up of Best Supporting Actress. You have
0:01:59 > 0:02:07seen the films. What was your Best Film?I was also a very big fan of
0:02:07 > 0:02:13The Shape of Water because the direction was so brilliant. But
0:02:13 > 0:02:18Dunkirk was fantastic.I agree, and would you agree with Best Actor,
0:02:18 > 0:02:24Gary Oldman?Yes, very happy to see that award.His performance as
0:02:24 > 0:02:29Churchill who was away!Might as well do the best actors!Yes, it was
0:02:29 > 0:02:33very difficult because I thought that social rolling in one of my
0:02:33 > 0:02:40favourite films of the year Ladybird was fantastic.And best lighting?!
0:02:40 > 0:02:45We would do them more by the rest of the show!
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Last week, during the extreme weather, we once again saw just how
0:02:48 > 0:02:51far NHS staff are prepared to go to give patients the care they need,
0:02:51 > 0:02:54working extra hours and, in many cases, walking to work
0:02:54 > 0:02:55through the snow and ice.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Now, in the year the NHS turns 70, we're giving you the chance
0:02:58 > 0:02:59to say 'thank you'.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02We know that in local hospitals, surgeries and in every corner
0:03:02 > 0:03:06of the NHS, there are people who go beyond the call of duty -
0:03:06 > 0:03:08not only saving lives, but transforming them
0:03:08 > 0:03:09with their care and compassion.
0:03:09 > 0:03:11So tonight, on your behalf, we are launching The One Show
0:03:11 > 0:03:16NHS Patients' Awards.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Angela is going to be explaining how you can take part in a moment.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22First, she's been to Chester, to find out what a difference
0:03:22 > 0:03:30a 'thank you' can make.
0:03:32 > 0:03:38Every 24 hours, more than 1 million people are seen by some part of the
0:03:38 > 0:03:42NHS. From routine checkups, to critical surgery, it is a system
0:03:42 > 0:03:46that we all rely on. But it is the 1.5 million NHS staff
0:03:46 > 0:03:49and hundreds of thousands of volunteers who day after day provide
0:03:49 > 0:03:55the vital backbone to the organisation. And often leave us
0:03:55 > 0:03:58with a lasting impression. That is why we want to give you the
0:03:58 > 0:04:04opportunity to say thank you. I would like to thank Marie O'Brien
0:04:04 > 0:04:10who was my midwife throughout my pregnancy with ribbon.
0:04:10 > 0:04:15I really like Becky, Nikki and Fay, who are nurses here, because they
0:04:15 > 0:04:19have looked after me well and made sure I was not in too much pain.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I was completely broken, they put me back together again.
0:04:22 > 0:04:27The nurses and doctors are very nice because they give me toast.
0:04:27 > 0:04:32She came and did not say a word, she put her arms around me and is knew
0:04:32 > 0:04:36she totally understood the place I was in.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39So what does a thank you mean to the staff here?
0:04:39 > 0:04:44Thank you really helps. We have a thank you board and the cards get
0:04:44 > 0:04:47displayed. Seeing what people have written helps you to remember no
0:04:47 > 0:04:51matter what the target is all these other processes, they are human
0:04:51 > 0:04:55beings and we are just another human trying to help them.
0:04:55 > 0:05:00You spend a lot of time with the people in this ward?Some weeks, you
0:05:00 > 0:05:04can be here three long days a week, 12 hour shifts. I go home to my
0:05:04 > 0:05:08little boy, I do not see my children as much as the patients, they are
0:05:08 > 0:05:12like family and we become really close.When somebody says McCrickard
0:05:12 > 0:05:17to, what does that mean?Everything, it makes everything worthwhile. --
0:05:17 > 0:05:22somebody says thank you. Time is pressured in the NHS and we never
0:05:22 > 0:05:26feel we give enough time so when they thank us for giving our time,
0:05:26 > 0:05:28that means an awful lot to me personally.
0:05:28 > 0:05:32I think that is what professionals in health care live for, it gives
0:05:32 > 0:05:36them the feeling that they doing the right thing. It gives them
0:05:36 > 0:05:40encouragement. So when we put in different circumstances, I think
0:05:40 > 0:05:45those memories are very important. Thank you for helping me through a
0:05:45 > 0:05:49safe delivery, thank you for your help and care over the past 11
0:05:49 > 0:05:54years! Amy Chaumont! Thank you for the help bringing my baby into this
0:05:54 > 0:05:59world.Times are tough in the NHS and it is hard work, but when you
0:05:59 > 0:06:04get this, you think of this is what we are doing it for!
0:06:04 > 0:06:11I am always -- I have always wanted to stop a train! You are one of the
0:06:11 > 0:06:15unsung heroes in the NHS because you go about doing stuff that is not
0:06:15 > 0:06:21being a nurse or a doctor, do you think people appreciate what you do?
0:06:21 > 0:06:27Certainly, yes. Do the children to you?You get comments. Like the fat
0:06:27 > 0:06:39controller!Do they mean that to you?Yes!Thank you.We came into
0:06:39 > 0:06:44the hospital about 2.5 weeks ago it, very poorly. We will hopefully going
0:06:44 > 0:06:51home today but things went, they took a turn for the worse, and we
0:06:51 > 0:06:55have combat abuse winner.Again who doing marvellous job. Do we say
0:06:55 > 0:07:00thank you often enough to the staff at the NHS?No, I don't think we do
0:07:00 > 0:07:05and we should do. There is no words, perfect, wonderful.One person very
0:07:05 > 0:07:10keen to say thank you today is Maggie, her partner Bill spent seven
0:07:10 > 0:07:14months as an inpatient here but there was one day in particular that
0:07:14 > 0:07:18was very memorable.Bill suddenly asked me to marry him after 20 odd
0:07:18 > 0:07:22years of being together. After he had been seriously ill and we still
0:07:22 > 0:07:28did not know which way things would go. The ward Sister manager Julie
0:07:28 > 0:07:33arranged everything in a matter of days. We had a room decorated.
0:07:33 > 0:07:40Wedding cake, food supplied.How special was that day for you?Very
0:07:40 > 0:07:43special. Bill is now being treated at another hospital but Maggie wants
0:07:43 > 0:07:48to say thank you to Julie in person for going that extra mile for both
0:07:48 > 0:07:54of them. Hello, Maggie. All right?There is
0:07:54 > 0:07:58not enough words to describe how much I would like to thank you.
0:07:58 > 0:08:06Bless you! Give her a hug!Julie has had me cry on her shoulder more than
0:08:06 > 0:08:13once!I know. For the staff here, The One Show NHS Patients' Awards
0:08:13 > 0:08:18could really make a difference.It is an acknowledgement of the hard
0:08:18 > 0:08:23work the NHS does and it is a real boost to morale. It is a wonderful
0:08:23 > 0:08:28idea.Thank you for everyone who took care of her of the NHS. Are you
0:08:28 > 0:08:38trying to say thank you? Any opportunity to say thank you!
0:08:38 > 0:08:41People are e-mailing him already and I'm sure that will be here with
0:08:41 > 0:08:44details of how to nominate. I am here to find out some incredible
0:08:44 > 0:08:51stories. Lincolnshire was incredibly snowy and you three or went above
0:08:51 > 0:08:56and beyond.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59and beyond. Amy, you could see the snow and you could not get your car
0:08:59 > 0:09:03round?What happened next was a lot of my team had already made it into
0:09:03 > 0:09:08work, I work with adult inpatients. I thought, I need to put my wellies
0:09:08 > 0:09:12on and take a work -- a walk into work and make sure patients get
0:09:12 > 0:09:17cared for and have the teamwork approach. How far away do you live?
0:09:17 > 0:09:23About eight miles.You walked that? We're looking at the footage, how
0:09:23 > 0:09:30long did it take?About three hours on my first day.To walk into work.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Amy, that is incredible. When you got there, there was a team to help
0:09:33 > 0:09:37you and carry on with the care, but what happens then, you did not go
0:09:37 > 0:09:43straight home?No, myself and most of my team stayed all night. We did
0:09:43 > 0:09:47kind of a 24-hour shift. We walked home the next day.Another eight
0:09:47 > 0:09:52miles. It is absolutely remarkable, it is.
0:09:52 > 0:10:00Applause.
0:10:00 > 0:10:04Applause.Helen and Zoe? One of our young people needed to go to a
0:10:04 > 0:10:10funeral quite a distance away. We took that person, we took that young
0:10:10 > 0:10:14person.This was an important part of their treatment?Yes, they really
0:10:14 > 0:10:19wanted to attend and we wanted to make that possible, even though it
0:10:19 > 0:10:24was a bit scary, well vary scary. The journey should have been a
0:10:24 > 0:10:28couple of hours. To get there was about three hours, just over, and a
0:10:28 > 0:10:33return, about five hours.Very scary. Zoe, I can imagine the
0:10:33 > 0:10:39family, they were just unfounded you were there?It was not enough banks
0:10:39 > 0:10:43from the family. Every opportunity they could. Not only was it Helen
0:10:43 > 0:10:47and I's job, it was a team collaboration. We, myself, I sat
0:10:47 > 0:10:52with the patient all the way through and my job was to make sure they
0:10:52 > 0:10:57were calm and safe, make sure Helen was OK, I was constantly calling
0:10:57 > 0:11:00back to the base to make sure everyone was happy with the
0:11:00 > 0:11:05conditions. If at any point it was dangerous, we would have turned
0:11:05 > 0:11:10round. Clinical and nonclinical, everybody has been supporting each
0:11:10 > 0:11:15other, the wards. It is not just the ward you are on and you do your
0:11:15 > 0:11:18shift, everything has gone out of the window, everybody comes together
0:11:18 > 0:11:24and works together as an amazing team. I am proud to be part of
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Lancashire partnership foundation trust.Thank you to everybody for
0:11:27 > 0:11:31what you did last week. But this goes way beyond last week. It is
0:11:31 > 0:11:35time to find out now how you can nominate these wonderful people for
0:11:35 > 0:11:40our NHS Patients' Awards. It is a coincidence we are launching
0:11:40 > 0:11:47those awards. But it is high time these angels are recognised.She has
0:11:47 > 0:11:53personal experience. I had a situation a couple of years ago when
0:11:53 > 0:11:58a very close family member of mine had to go to hospital in London and
0:11:58 > 0:12:04we stayed there for a couple of days. I met some absolute angels. On
0:12:04 > 0:12:07those days. I am so happy to hear you now have this award and thank
0:12:07 > 0:12:13you so much over there! And your father is a Doctor? Yes, so I know,
0:12:13 > 0:12:16I had been in hospital since I was very young and I see what people put
0:12:16 > 0:12:22in.Listening to this, those three wonderful women, it they all made
0:12:22 > 0:12:26the headlines and so many others like them this weekend. At what we
0:12:26 > 0:12:32forget very often, what they represent is the ethos, the attitude
0:12:32 > 0:12:37that everybody working in the NHS has, to not just a job but their
0:12:37 > 0:12:41vocation. And as members of the public, it was lovely to see on the
0:12:41 > 0:12:46notice boards in the hospital, and they must be replicated all over the
0:12:46 > 0:12:50country, those cards saying thank you. But this is our opportunity on
0:12:50 > 0:12:56the The One Show with these awards with the entire nation to say to NHS
0:12:56 > 0:12:59staff, thank you, because you do that kind of thing and you have that
0:12:59 > 0:13:04attitude. Right the way through the year, three and 65 days a week.So
0:13:04 > 0:13:09we have five categories, talk us through each one.The five
0:13:09 > 0:13:13categories, the important thing about each of them, this is an
0:13:13 > 0:13:17opportunity for people to say thank you for something very special. It
0:13:17 > 0:13:22may be a triple heart bypass, the paediatric ward that saved your
0:13:22 > 0:13:25baby, and orderly, a nurse, a volunteer who sat with somebody at
0:13:25 > 0:13:31their bedside at a very important emotional time in somebody's life.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34These are the things we want to hear about, the stories which really,
0:13:34 > 0:13:39really touched people and made a difference in your life. As a
0:13:39 > 0:13:45patient. Because someone in the NHS did something way beyond the normal
0:13:45 > 0:13:48and did something absolutely exceptional. Our five categories, we
0:13:48 > 0:13:54start with children and young people's are award. Anybody under 18
0:13:54 > 0:13:59from a newborn to a toddler, a teenager and usually the paediatric
0:13:59 > 0:14:03word -- Ward is where they do wonderful work and a lot of people,
0:14:03 > 0:14:08we will be inundated with fabulous things. And young people themselves
0:14:08 > 0:14:11who want to say thank you. Well, they can, but say it through their
0:14:11 > 0:14:16parents. I will tell you about the voting later. Healthcare Award is
0:14:16 > 0:14:19the broadest award and this is a category in which patients and
0:14:19 > 0:14:28families can award doctors, consultants, a anaesthetist, a GP,
0:14:28 > 0:14:33anybody working in the area and chests who does something above and
0:14:33 > 0:14:37beyond which touches you and makes a difference to your life. The Nursing
0:14:37 > 0:14:42Award, what it says, nurses, district nurses, midwives, all of
0:14:42 > 0:14:44them have done something absolutely outstanding to really make a
0:14:44 > 0:14:47difference to your life and impressed upon you just really what
0:14:47 > 0:14:51it means to be in the care of the NHS where people are prepared to do
0:14:51 > 0:14:57something different.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03It is not just patients and families that can nominate people for this,
0:15:03 > 0:15:08but also colleagues within the NHS. The NHS is full of people who have
0:15:08 > 0:15:12given a lifetime of service. They may be medical or non-medical, but
0:15:12 > 0:15:15they have gone the extra mile. They have been there through thick and
0:15:15 > 0:15:20thin. They may have retired, but a lifetime achievement award is for
0:15:20 > 0:15:23people who think that these are special individuals who get
0:15:23 > 0:15:28something to the NHS and to the patients. Our final award is the
0:15:28 > 0:15:37unsung
0:15:44 > 0:15:47hero award. You saw my friend Geoffrey on the Thomas the Tank
0:15:47 > 0:15:49Engine train. He is indicative of thousands of people who work in the
0:15:49 > 0:15:52NHS. They are the porters, the cooks, the orderlies, the cleaners,
0:15:52 > 0:15:54people on reception, the volunteers. They all support the medical staff
0:15:54 > 0:15:57as well as the patients. It is an opportunity for the public to say
0:15:57 > 0:15:59thank you to them.How do people nominate? This is important, because
0:15:59 > 0:16:02it is the story and impact it has had on a person and their family.
0:16:02 > 0:16:08Very much so. It is very easy, just go to The one website and click on
0:16:08 > 0:16:14The One Show NHS patients award logo and up will come all the terms and
0:16:14 > 0:16:16conditions, which I am not going to go through because there are so
0:16:16 > 0:16:20many. But right at the bottom, there is a box you take and that will
0:16:20 > 0:16:24bring up the page on which you can make your nomination. Just tell us
0:16:24 > 0:16:29the name of the person, and why you want that person nominated. You
0:16:29 > 0:16:36don't need to go into intricate medical details. We want to know the
0:16:36 > 0:16:41story, the emotion, the moment that said to you, that person is special
0:16:41 > 0:16:46and I want to nominate them because they might be the winner. It will be
0:16:46 > 0:16:49easy for some people still say, I want to nominate the entire cancer
0:16:49 > 0:16:54ward. We want the individual. If you can't run under an individual's
0:16:54 > 0:16:59name, go back to the hospital and ask -- if you can't remember an
0:16:59 > 0:17:06individual. Just ask, who was that nurse or doctor or orderly? If you
0:17:06 > 0:17:09are under 18 and you want to nominate someone, you must do it
0:17:09 > 0:17:13with your parent. The other thing is that if you want to nominate on
0:17:13 > 0:17:19behalf of a patient, it is important that you get that patient's
0:17:19 > 0:17:27permission to make that nomination. All the details are online. We are
0:17:27 > 0:17:32going to be inundated. We will have a big awards ceremony night.The
0:17:32 > 0:17:37important thing is the closing date, midnight on April the 5th. So we
0:17:37 > 0:17:41want all those nominations in.I will make my nomination.Come and
0:17:41 > 0:17:44give an award out!
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Now, from action scenes in the snow to action on the big screen,
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Tomb Raider has been rebooted for a new generation -
0:17:49 > 0:17:57so let's see Lara Croft, doing what she does best.
0:18:15 > 0:18:24Do you really want to do this, little girl? Let's just go home.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27That looks incredible. We saw it this afternoon, Alicia, and we were
0:18:27 > 0:18:33shattered just watching you in action. You never stop moving.She
0:18:33 > 0:18:39needed some help patching up!When you see yourself doing stuff like
0:18:39 > 0:18:43that, does it take your breath away that that is you?Well, it reminds
0:18:43 > 0:18:47me that I trained a lot to be able to do the physical stuff that Lara
0:18:47 > 0:18:56does in this film. Maybe I ought to go back to the gym.But this is a
0:18:56 > 0:19:02role that you have wanted to play since you were a little isn't to be
0:19:02 > 0:19:04honest, that was like another universe.I used to play a lot of
0:19:04 > 0:19:10games. And I loved adventure movies like Indiana Jones and the mummy
0:19:10 > 0:19:16films growing up. So when I had the call asking me if I want to be part
0:19:16 > 0:19:21of a film like this, and when they said it was a rebooted version on
0:19:21 > 0:19:31that felt like it was something new. But it is so full on and I am sure
0:19:31 > 0:19:37there are not many more roles that are more forlorn than this.Well, I
0:19:37 > 0:19:42hope we are moving into times where we will be surprised firstly at
0:19:42 > 0:19:47female characters in these films, which is definitely a big change.
0:19:47 > 0:19:52You did a lot of your own stunts as well.That was one of my favourite
0:19:52 > 0:19:56things about being part of a film like this. I have always been
0:19:56 > 0:20:01curious about the detailed work out how you put together these stunts
0:20:01 > 0:20:09and action. I used to dance before I started to act, so due to that, the
0:20:09 > 0:20:13physical aspect really intrigued me. We were watching you and I thought,
0:20:13 > 0:20:20I have never seen arms like that on a girl before.
0:20:20 > 0:20:25a girl before.It goes away so fast! What was the regime like? How did
0:20:25 > 0:20:30you get into a state to do those stunts?I actually looked to a lot
0:20:30 > 0:20:36of female athletes. I also met a lot of stunned women in the industry
0:20:36 > 0:20:42over the past few years. I was not able to do a poll up or live my own
0:20:42 > 0:20:48weight, and that is part of who Lara is, the fact that she climbs all
0:20:48 > 0:20:52these walls and jumps.It is like the Olympics. You should try the
0:20:52 > 0:20:56heptathlon!Plus a bit of film magic, but I did about four months
0:20:56 > 0:21:06of training in boxing, rock climbing, swimming, archery.We
0:21:06 > 0:21:09don't want to give too much away, but give us the rough story of this.
0:21:09 > 0:21:15It starts in the UK?It does. She is a very British character, as we
0:21:15 > 0:21:20know.
0:21:21 > 0:21:25know. I played the games as a child, but I wasn't aware of the rebooted
0:21:25 > 0:21:28games that this film is based on. At the beginning of the film, we need
0:21:28 > 0:21:33her not at her manner, but she has decided her dad has disappeared the
0:21:33 > 0:21:40seven years and she's trying to come to terms with what happened to him,
0:21:40 > 0:21:43but also not take the easy path and follow his steps. She wants to
0:21:43 > 0:21:49figure out her own footing in the world like young people do. And she
0:21:49 > 0:21:54wants to fight for her own destiny. That is when she's kicked off on
0:21:54 > 0:22:01this adventure.We loved it. The only thing I was disappointed in was
0:22:01 > 0:22:03that you were this brilliant men lead and then everybody else apart
0:22:03 > 0:22:09from two minor roles were men again. I did get to work with Kristin Scott
0:22:09 > 0:22:20Thomas.She is phenomenal.But I agree. It was like I was on this
0:22:20 > 0:22:26island without enough women. I was running around, looking for them.
0:22:26 > 0:22:32But it doesn't take away from how brilliant the film is. I can't wait
0:22:32 > 0:22:36until my daughter is old enough to watch. Tomb Raider is in cinemas
0:22:36 > 0:22:41from March the 15th. Now, Alicia's home country of Sweden is one of the
0:22:41 > 0:22:46best places to see the aurora borealis, but it is visible from the
0:22:46 > 0:22:50UK as well. The question is, how do those incredible colours light up
0:22:50 > 0:22:56the dark sky? I am sure you know. You know, I actually went hunting to
0:22:56 > 0:23:04see them myself. I went to the ice hotel. It has been on my bucket list
0:23:04 > 0:23:11for my own home country for years growing up. I tell everyone, it is
0:23:11 > 0:23:16one of the most extraordinary things I have done. In April, it will all
0:23:16 > 0:23:22downbeat in the river again.
0:23:23 > 0:23:27downbeat in the river again. I slept at minus eight degrees. It was
0:23:27 > 0:23:32fantastic, but no, I did not see the lights.Well, our science man Marty
0:23:32 > 0:23:39Jopson will be your new best friend. You may not know it, but we are
0:23:39 > 0:23:44constantly under siege from a gain deadly particles racing towards
0:23:44 > 0:23:50Earth at over 1 million mph. This onslaught comes hurtling towards us
0:23:50 > 0:24:00straight from our own star, the Sun. This all sounds pretty apocalyptic,
0:24:00 > 0:24:04but why can't we feel this solar wind and how do we survive such
0:24:04 > 0:24:10lethal force? Luckily for us, Earth has an invisible force field that
0:24:10 > 0:24:14deflects most of the dangerous particles. This shield is called the
0:24:14 > 0:24:21magneto sphere. It's the area around Earth controlled by the planet's
0:24:21 > 0:24:25magnetic field. And whilst it shelters us, it also creates one of
0:24:25 > 0:24:33the most impressive phenomenon Earth, the Northern Lights. I have
0:24:33 > 0:24:37come to the university of Leicester to witness how this collision in
0:24:37 > 0:24:45space results in such a spectacular natural wonder down here on Earth.
0:24:45 > 0:24:51This is a planet Roller. It compresses 93 million miles into
0:24:51 > 0:24:58about 20 centimetres. The large ball on this site represents the sun and
0:24:58 > 0:25:02the smaller one is the Earth. In fact, there is a strong magnet that
0:25:02 > 0:25:08gives us the earth's magnetic field. We then put a large voltage between
0:25:08 > 0:25:15the two and that gives us a solar wind. If you get the Earth, you can
0:25:15 > 0:25:21see, at the Poles, there is a purplish glow. In my miniature solar
0:25:21 > 0:25:27system here, I have recreated the northern and southern lights, the
0:25:27 > 0:25:35Aurora. When the deadly solar winds reach other's magnetosphere, some of
0:25:35 > 0:25:40the charged particles get trapped and are propelled down the other's
0:25:40 > 0:25:44magnetic field lines straight towards the Poles. And when they
0:25:44 > 0:25:51reach Earth, they strike atoms and molecules in our atmosphere,
0:25:51 > 0:25:55releasing energy in the form of light. And all this takes place over
0:25:55 > 0:26:02100 miles above our heads. To see the Aurora simulated in the lab is
0:26:02 > 0:26:10fascinating, but nothing can beat the real thing. This cameraman lives
0:26:10 > 0:26:14in Caithness, right at the northern tip of Scotland, the best place in
0:26:14 > 0:26:18the UK to see the Northern Lights. And we have set him the mission to
0:26:18 > 0:26:26film the spectacle. By using a long exposure and a sensitive camera, he
0:26:26 > 0:26:31can capture them in all their majesty. The colour of the Aurora
0:26:31 > 0:26:35depends on which gas in the atmosphere is being hit by the
0:26:35 > 0:26:40energy funnelled down from space. Oxygen produces an array of yellows,
0:26:40 > 0:26:47greens and reds, whilst nitrogen gives off blues, purples and ribald
0:26:47 > 0:26:51edges. This awe-inspiring light show is a reminder that we are connected
0:26:51 > 0:26:58electrically to the sun. And the beauty has inspired artists, writers
0:26:58 > 0:27:02and poets. A few lines from the ballad of the Northern Lights by
0:27:02 > 0:27:09poet Robert William service gives us an idea of that drama and splendour.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13"And The skies of night were alive with light, with a throbbing,
0:27:13 > 0:27:21thrilling flame. Amber and Rose and violent, Opel and gold it came.
0:27:21 > 0:27:27Therein or, we crouched and sold with our wild, uplifted eyes, charge
0:27:27 > 0:27:36and retire, the hosts of fire in the battlefield of the skies".
0:27:38 > 0:27:42So now you have seen it from a TV studio, Alicia. That is almost it
0:27:42 > 0:27:48for tonight. A big thank you to Alicia. Tomb Raider is in cinemas
0:27:48 > 0:27:51from the 15th of March. Tomorrow, Cuba Gooding Jr will be here. Before
0:27:51 > 0:27:56we go, we have been talking about our One Show NHS Patients Awards and
0:27:56 > 0:28:00going the extra mile. Someone who not only went the extra mile but
0:28:00 > 0:28:02broke records doing it is Sir Roger Bannister, who passed away at the
0:28:02 > 0:28:06weekend. We will leave you with Sir Roger, narrating his own world
0:28:06 > 0:28:12first, with words from people he inspired along the way.As the gun
0:28:12 > 0:28:17fired, Chris went into the lead and I slipped in effortlessly behind
0:28:17 > 0:28:24him. My legs seemed to meet no resistance at all.Such a historical
0:28:24 > 0:28:31event. What an absolute gent and a legend.I was relaxing so much that
0:28:31 > 0:28:36my mind seemed almost detached from my body.He was one of the cleverest
0:28:36 > 0:28:47people I have ever met. And he was, in equal measure, modest as well.
0:28:48 > 0:28:52He created an iconic moment in history and inspired me as a medical
0:28:52 > 0:28:58student to pursue my dream of becoming an athlete.I felt that the
0:28:58 > 0:29:04moment of a had come.In four minutes, he changed the world of
0:29:04 > 0:29:11sport. Anything became possible.
0:29:14 > 0:29:18COMMENTATOR: And Bannister has done it, the mile in three minutes 59.4
0:29:18 > 0:29:23seconds.My effort was over and I collapsed almost unconscious with an
0:29:23 > 0:29:32arm on either side.
