Hello and welcome to The One Show. On the 50th anniversary of the

:00:24.:00:29.

first Bond film, I'm joined by odd- job himself, Mr Matt Allwright.

:00:29.:00:37.

from Swansea With Love, Miss Funny- penny Jones. And we have a studio

:00:37.:00:46.

of James Bonds, shaken not stirred. It's all to give a 007 welcome to

:00:46.:00:56.
:00:56.:00:56.

the longest serving Bond, Mr Roger Moore. I'm better with this!

:00:56.:01:01.

nice to have you back. The it's lovely to be back. Big Bond news

:01:01.:01:05.

today because a del's Skyfall has gone straight in there at number

:01:05.:01:09.

one. The first singer ever to have a number one with a Bond theme.

:01:09.:01:14.

What do you make of it? I just heard it for the first time, which

:01:14.:01:18.

is interesting because I'm going to an auction at Christie's after

:01:18.:01:24.

words. A lot that I'm auctioning is the manuscript of a del's in her

:01:24.:01:32.

own hand. That will be worth a fortune. I sincerely hope so! The

:01:32.:01:37.

money goes to UNICEF, which is important. We are going to be

:01:37.:01:42.

hearing that tune later. It is a big piano number. With as, pianist

:01:42.:01:46.

Peter Mitchell will be playing some of the best-loved Bond themes at

:01:46.:01:55.

the end of the show. Time now for an exclusive, with more than a bit

:01:55.:01:59.

of a Bond twist. Cavers in Somerset have spent the past four years

:01:59.:02:03.

gaining access to a huge underground cavern they've called

:02:03.:02:07.

the Frozen Deep, perhaps occupied by a secret army commanded by a man

:02:07.:02:14.

bent on world domination in a rotating chair with a white cat!

:02:14.:02:18.

No. Yesterday we were the first camera crew to be allowed into the

:02:18.:02:22.

caves. This is the story of how Miranda journeys into the deep and

:02:22.:02:25.

actually reveals whether the diggers have found the biggest

:02:25.:02:30.

underground cavern in Britain. What could be more relaxing than a jaunt

:02:30.:02:33.

in the countryside in the Mendip Hills in Somerset? This is not

:02:33.:02:39.

quite what I had in mind! Today, a few hundred metres from that famous

:02:39.:02:44.

Cheddar gorge case, I'm joining a group whose remarkable subterranean

:02:44.:02:49.

discovery could turn British cave- in on its head. You've got about

:02:49.:02:52.

250 years' worth of caving experience between you today. I can

:02:52.:02:59.

add about a day to that! Martin is part of Mendip cave rescue. Deep

:02:59.:03:03.

underground, he and the team found a vast open chamber which could

:03:03.:03:08.

prove to be Britain's biggest cava. This was found in the early 50s and

:03:08.:03:13.

was just a drafting whole, a crack. Cavers then make it bigger and its

:03:13.:03:17.

lead to what's beyond now. What is the main chamber called? The Frozen

:03:17.:03:22.

Deep. When we're talking about big, how does this cave compared to the

:03:22.:03:26.

rest of the caves in the UK? biggest chamber known in Britain is

:03:26.:03:30.

Gaping Gill in Yorkshire. We don't know yet if it is bigger than that.

:03:30.:03:38.

We hope to find out today. Have you seen the size of that?! My

:03:38.:03:47.

goodness! Blimey! I hope it's not like this all the way. I'm OK at

:03:47.:03:53.

the moment. This is a nice bit, says Gavin. There's a lot of

:03:53.:03:58.

spiders appear. Caving isn't just intensely physical, it is

:03:58.:04:01.

incredibly psychological as well. As I'm going to find out. It's what

:04:01.:04:05.

you call a tight squeeze. They are so many twists and turns and

:04:05.:04:09.

squeezes. Every time I get to where I think the chamber is, there's

:04:09.:04:13.

just more tunnel. This is because we are climbing? This is because

:04:13.:04:17.

we're going down a drop. I will tighten it up for you. What is

:04:17.:04:23.

interesting here is you remember this was dug in the 50s, they

:04:23.:04:29.

stacked these boulders appeared using block and tackle. Some bodies

:04:29.:04:33.

stacked all these boulders one on top of each other. They were

:04:33.:04:38.

digging down at the same time and stacking the boulders or the way up.

:04:38.:04:42.

Martin tells me that the main thing a caber looks for is the feeling of

:04:42.:04:46.

a draft, indicating another chamber beyond and the right direction to

:04:46.:04:52.

dig. It's so tight! This but I'm crawling through was literally a

:04:52.:04:57.

only excavated a month ago. I'm one of the first people to have crawled

:04:57.:05:00.

through it. There are literally only about 12 people who've been

:05:00.:05:06.

through this little tunnel, and now me! We finally arrive. The Frozen

:05:06.:05:12.

Deep is incredible. Wow! It's so huge. My light doesn't even reach

:05:12.:05:16.

the back wall. It's brilliant. What I'd really like to do is give you

:05:16.:05:20.

an idea of what it looks like all lit up. That's what we'd like to

:05:20.:05:26.

see. Even with modern torch as it is just black in the distance.

:05:26.:05:36.
:05:36.:05:36.

put the lights on, please. It looks just magical. It is amazing. It is

:05:36.:05:40.

fascinating seeing it with the light on. We didn't expect to find

:05:40.:05:44.

so many formations. And the size of them, the pillars, which are about

:05:44.:05:49.

five metres, the stalactites coming out of the ceiling. And then these

:05:49.:05:55.

20 metre below stones. Astonishing. That was formed naturally. Over

:05:55.:05:59.

thousands and thousands of years. When it comes to caving, size is

:05:59.:06:04.

everything. You all want to have the biggest cave. Who owns the

:06:04.:06:08.

record at the moment? Gaping Gill in Yorkshire. But you are hoping to

:06:08.:06:11.

have some measurements which make this possibly the biggest. We are,

:06:11.:06:17.

but we don't know the results. I have the results. Slightly

:06:17.:06:27.

ridiculously to bring an iPad down here. Gaping Gill has an area of

:06:27.:06:35.

2729 square metres. The Frozen Deep is... 2981 square metres.

:06:35.:06:40.

Yorkshire cavers are going to be annoyed. They will be really cross.

:06:40.:06:47.

Congratulations. All you've got to do now is carry all this kicked out.

:06:47.:06:52.

Frozen Deep, it does sounds like the title of a Bond film. He does.

:06:52.:07:00.

We used to go caving on live Volette died in Jamaica. -- live or

:07:00.:07:05.

let dive. We have lights up in this enormous bit which was part of

:07:06.:07:14.

whether villain was. I was standing at the back in the dark. I came

:07:14.:07:21.

forward very slowly from the dark behind the third assistant, who was

:07:21.:07:27.

called A blade. He was about 6 ft 5 and had long, thin legs in little

:07:27.:07:35.

shorts. I came up behind him and went... He went up! Most people

:07:35.:07:44.

fall down. Or jump. He just collapsed. Unfortunately, we don't

:07:44.:07:54.
:07:54.:08:00.

have a clip of that particular A, Mr Bond, there you are. You are

:08:00.:08:10.

unexpected but most welcome. Two That was the second film I ever saw

:08:10.:08:15.

in my life. After bedknobs and broomsticks. That was the real

:08:15.:08:22.

cave? Half-and-half. That it was in the studio with the water, but most

:08:22.:08:30.

of the other stuff we shot in the real cave. That was quite a nasty

:08:30.:08:34.

bit of water. I think that was where I was taken up and I escaped

:08:34.:08:43.

with Jane Seymour. Then we went in with the sharks. Just an ordinary...

:08:43.:08:47.

Just another day! You will be able to regale everybody with your tales

:08:47.:08:51.

of Bond because you are on tour, starting in Melbourne on Sunday.

:08:51.:08:55.

It's called An Evening with Roger Moore. What can the audience

:08:55.:09:03.

expect? If they come? They will, it sold out. We are trying to get them

:09:03.:09:06.

in Southampton and Bournemouth and Basingstoke at the moment. What I

:09:06.:09:14.

will do is talk about my life up to Bond. And then Bond. And my life

:09:14.:09:19.

since Bond. Which has been terrible! Looking at some of the

:09:19.:09:24.

pictures, I don't know how you survived. It has been hell. We will

:09:24.:09:30.

talk a bit about the book as well later on. Sean Connery was the

:09:30.:09:35.

first man to play Bond on the screen 50 years ago. But he very

:09:35.:09:42.

nearly wasn't. Who stole my guitar? Larry Lamb meets the man who was a

:09:42.:09:52.
:09:52.:09:58.

whisker away from playing the Sean Connery and James Bond. You

:09:58.:10:02.

can hardly say one without thinking the other. But it wasn't always the

:10:02.:10:06.

case. Things could have looked very different if the producers had

:10:06.:10:13.

chosen somebody else. And in 1961, they very nearly did. Originally

:10:14.:10:20.

the producers had somebody else in line to play the very first Bond.

:10:20.:10:25.

50 years on, few remember him at The One Show has tracked him down.

:10:25.:10:35.
:10:35.:10:36.

His name is Anthony. Peter Anthony. When the Bond producers Cubby

:10:36.:10:40.

Broccoli and Larry swordsman first wanted to bring Flemming's book to

:10:40.:10:43.

the big screen, they had a hard task ahead of them because Fleming

:10:43.:10:50.

left a lot to the imagination as to what Bond actually looked like.

:10:50.:10:54.

don't have many clues in the books as to Bond's physical appearance,

:10:54.:10:58.

other than that he's quite tall and has dark hair. Beyond that there's

:10:58.:11:03.

not much to go one. Producers were very keen to modernise Flemming's

:11:03.:11:09.

character from a 1950s era into something that was more into the

:11:09.:11:12.

social and cultural changes of the 1960s. They wanted somebody who

:11:12.:11:16.

physically fit the bill, who looked as if he could hand hymns --

:11:16.:11:20.

Campbell himself in the action sequences. The producers were

:11:20.:11:26.

originally reluctant to cast a known actor. So on 20th July 1961,

:11:26.:11:31.

they deployed their secret weapon. After an unsuccessful series of

:11:32.:11:35.

auditions, a national newspaper in collaboration with the studio run a

:11:35.:11:39.

competition to find the first on- screen James Bond. Thousands of

:11:39.:11:45.

people applied at one stood out above the rest. Peter Anthony. A

:11:45.:11:49.

young model from London. And he didn't even know he'd been entered

:11:49.:11:56.

into the contest! A friend of mine sent a photograph in and the nuns

:11:56.:12:00.

to the. The next thing I know I get this letter saying had been

:12:00.:12:06.

selected to have a screen test. Broccoli described him as a Gregory

:12:06.:12:10.

Peck, and said he had an instantly arresting appearance. For him,

:12:11.:12:15.

Peter Anthony was the face of James Bond. So he had the perfect look

:12:15.:12:20.

but there was one thing missing. wasn't a dedicated actor. In fact,

:12:20.:12:25.

I wasn't an actor at all. I've never been in the studio in my life.

:12:25.:12:28.

I was fairly used to working in front of the camera but not a movie

:12:28.:12:35.

camera. What happened next was I was invited round to Harry's office.

:12:35.:12:40.

Do you remember what he said? Basically, well, you haven't got

:12:41.:12:45.

the part. Really? We don't think you've got enough experience for

:12:45.:12:50.

this role, which was obvious to me anyway. I'm happy that I did miss

:12:50.:12:53.

it in some respects. I feel I've been so lucky in my life.

:12:53.:13:00.

regrets? No regrets at all. In the end the part went to a young, up-

:13:00.:13:04.

and-coming actor named Sean Connery. To date there have been more than

:13:04.:13:09.

20 Bond bills and six official incarnations of the secret agent on

:13:09.:13:16.

the big screen. Today the story of Peter Anthony, the first faint --

:13:16.:13:20.

the first phase of James Bond, has all but faded from memory. But in

:13:20.:13:23.

these celebrity obsessed times it's nice to meet someone who came very

:13:23.:13:28.

close to fame but harbours no regrets. So, 50 years on, here is

:13:28.:13:35.

our one show salute to what could have been. But a Martini, shaken

:13:35.:13:45.
:13:45.:13:52.

What do you think, do you think Peter Anthony would have made a

:13:52.:13:59.

good Bond? He has aged better than I have! I remember that competition.

:13:59.:14:03.

I'd never heard of this story but I remember there was a competition

:14:03.:14:13.
:14:13.:14:13.

going on in the Daily Express. They said that, after I started Bond,

:14:13.:14:18.

they said that Ian Fleming had me in mind. But Ian Fleming was dead

:14:18.:14:28.
:14:28.:14:44.

The outfits are fantastically stylish - did you get to keep them?

:14:44.:14:48.

Some of them. But I cannot wear them. The ones that I managed to

:14:48.:14:55.

keep, I cannot wear them, because my waistline has changed somewhat.

:14:55.:15:04.

But there was one particularly beautiful suit. It was done last

:15:04.:15:08.

day of this particular sequence, and I was looking forward to taking

:15:08.:15:16.

this suit home. And Cubby Broccoli was up a ladder, and he said, is

:15:16.:15:22.

that it, boys? Everybody said, yes, Mr broccoli. And he hit me with a

:15:22.:15:28.

whole bucket of paste. This beautiful suit. Because he knew you

:15:28.:15:37.

wanted it so much. There was a double suit. Daniel Craig, he did

:15:37.:15:41.

not take home those famous blue swimming trunks, because they have

:15:41.:15:49.

been auctioned today. He has got a lovely physique, you have to say.

:15:49.:15:52.

But at think you're the most handsome Bond there has been. Were

:15:52.:15:57.

the producers particular about how you looked? Well, they said there

:15:57.:16:05.

was a little overweight, my hair was too long. So, every day I would

:16:05.:16:13.

staff and run for half a mile, fast! And then they would cut your

:16:13.:16:18.

hair. Finally I said to them, why did you not get a bald-headed man,

:16:18.:16:27.

who was nice and skinny, and saved me all of this grief? I look as

:16:27.:16:35.

though I have had my hair cut now, don't I? It disappears. You look

:16:35.:16:41.

good, you can carry it off, Roger. I had double pneumonia earlier this

:16:41.:16:45.

year, I had a tremendous amount of antibiotics, and since then, my

:16:45.:16:52.

hair has been falling out. Every day. And yet you still got more

:16:52.:17:02.

than me. Have I? Yes, it is going at the back. Anyway, moving on...

:17:02.:17:06.

You have been quite close to a few Bond girls, but you were a bit

:17:06.:17:16.
:17:16.:17:41.

harsh with some of them. Let's just I did nothing! You will never guess

:17:41.:17:49.

what - Caroline Munro, who played that Bond girl, in The Spy Who

:17:49.:17:54.

Loved Me, is with us now. Even though Roger actually killed you,

:17:54.:18:00.

what did you make of working with him? Well, what can I say, he is

:18:00.:18:05.

always my Bond, nobody does it better. What can I say? His sense

:18:05.:18:14.

of humour, obviously, it goes without saying. But what a waste! I

:18:14.:18:20.

mean, a waste to kill you. I know. I think it was Barbara, I think she

:18:20.:18:30.
:18:30.:18:33.

pushed the bottom. Yes, I never had much time for her. What I would

:18:33.:18:40.

like to know was, off-screen, off camera, did Sir Roger ever raised

:18:40.:18:50.
:18:50.:18:51.

his eyebrows at you in that way? certainly did. He does it so

:18:51.:19:01.

beautifully. I wish I could do it. Will you do the eyebrows to camera

:19:01.:19:08.

four? There Wiggo. It is the best. We think that nobody does the

:19:08.:19:18.
:19:18.:19:22.

eyebrows better, so we put it to the public test. How do I do this?

:19:22.:19:32.
:19:32.:19:54.

I think he looks really good, just like 007. Without the Aston Martin.

:19:54.:19:58.

What a lovely couple, but nobody is as good as you, Roger. To explain

:19:58.:20:06.

the science behind people's eyebrow raising antics is a consultant

:20:06.:20:14.

surgeon, Carrie Newlands. Well, the human face has around 14 pairs of

:20:14.:20:18.

muscles, the highest concentration of muscles in the whole of the

:20:18.:20:22.

human body. We use them to convey expression to other people, and it

:20:22.:20:26.

is one important way of interacting with people. When we raised two

:20:26.:20:31.

eyebrows, we are generally demonstrating surprise, and when we

:20:31.:20:36.

raised one, like Roger, we are sometimes conveying a question. It

:20:36.:20:40.

is thought to be genetic. People have a genetic ability, and they

:20:40.:20:44.

learn to do it as a child and they carry it on into adulthood. Have

:20:44.:20:53.

you seen anyone better at it than Roger? I think he is the best.

:20:53.:20:58.

sad thing about the eyebrow is that, I was under contract to MGM back in

:20:58.:21:07.

the 1950s, and they said, keep your face static, because you're 60 foot

:21:07.:21:11.

high on the screen, and if you raise your eyebrows, it will go up

:21:11.:21:18.

20 feet. So, all my MGM years, I sat with a face like this. And then

:21:18.:21:26.

finally, when I started the St, and nobody ever told me what to do, I

:21:26.:21:33.

maybe raised an eyebrow, and then I ended up saying, yes, as an actor,

:21:33.:21:38.

I had three expressions - left eyebrow, right eyebrow, and it

:21:38.:21:45.

stuck with me. Well, it has done you very well. When John Sergeant

:21:45.:21:49.

heard that Roger was coming into night, he could not resist doing

:21:49.:21:52.

his best impression of a secret agent. Unfortunately, in John's

:21:52.:21:58.

world, that involves wearing a tweed hat. In the world of

:21:58.:22:04.

espionage, spies, like those who work for the Secret Service, have

:22:04.:22:07.

always been worried about how their secrets are communicated. If you're

:22:07.:22:11.

going to be a spy, you have got to know about secret messages and

:22:11.:22:16.

invisible ink. From as early as Roman times, spies, like children

:22:16.:22:20.

across the world today, have used lemon juice to keep their secrets

:22:20.:22:26.

hidden, only to be revealed when heated. But in 1915, British

:22:26.:22:31.

officials intercepted a sheet of music posted by a suspected German

:22:31.:22:36.

spy, and this time, it was not heat that was required to reveal the

:22:36.:22:41.

message, it was a chemical. This was no longer child's play. It was

:22:41.:22:48.

the work of a top spy. He had a strange background - born in

:22:48.:22:51.

Austria, he became a British musical entertainer. After he was

:22:51.:22:58.

caught he was locked up for eight years in Dartmoor. I am at the

:22:58.:23:02.

Imperial War museum in London to meet Roderick, an expert on

:23:03.:23:07.

invisible ink. We have got a secret message here - how is it encoded on

:23:07.:23:13.

the paper? He has written his message behind a musical score. He

:23:13.:23:18.

has done it using an agent, invisible ink. This is then only

:23:18.:23:22.

revealed by applying another agent, to react with the ink, making it

:23:22.:23:27.

visible. This is quite typical of the secret world. The first thing

:23:27.:23:32.

he says it is, can you send me some money. So, he does not really care

:23:32.:23:35.

so much about the naval secrets which come later, it is, I want my

:23:35.:23:43.

money. That's typical, isn't it? Absolut key. This began what became

:23:43.:23:47.

the invisible ink equivalent of the arms race. No sooner had the other

:23:47.:23:51.

side discovered the recipe, then it would change again. German spies

:23:51.:23:58.

also took to hiding their ink in ingenious ways. Soap, antiseptic,

:23:58.:24:03.

toothpaste and even their own clothing were used. We have a pair

:24:03.:24:08.

of socks which belonged to a German spy, was instructions were to

:24:08.:24:13.

dampen the socks and squeeze them, to get the ink out, which he then

:24:13.:24:17.

what used to write his messages. 1918, the Germans were ready to

:24:17.:24:22.

forget their socks, and they invented the ultimate secret ink

:24:22.:24:26.

formula. In America, they thought it was so dangerous, they only

:24:26.:24:30.

released the details last year. I am meeting a chemist to find out

:24:30.:24:35.

why. The science, the chemistry, is complicated. We have got all sorts

:24:35.:24:42.

of things in here. The alcohol has to be at 90 degrees, so it is quite

:24:42.:24:47.
