Hello and welcome o the one Show. With Alex Jones And Matt Baker. One | :00:24. | :00:27. | |
year after snake hips backfliped his way across the dance floor, you | :00:27. | :00:32. | |
will meet the 14 celebrities about to don their sequins to impress the | :00:32. | :00:35. | |
Strictly judges. Although you mange you know who they are, nobody is | :00:35. | :00:45. | |
:00:45. | :00:50. | ||
official until confirmed by this Lovely to see you, Len. How are | :00:50. | :01:00. | |
you? God to see you. Alex. yourself down. Wonderful. Nice to | :01:00. | :01:04. | |
see you. Great. I thought the entrance was brilliant. A bit more | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
extension in the arms though! going to do the backflip. When were | :01:09. | :01:15. | |
you told the names then, Len? three hours ago. Can I tell you | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
something, I'm so excited, I could pickle my walnuts, honestly. I | :01:21. | :01:27. | |
think the line-up is fabulous! It is Absolutely Fabulous. It is good | :01:27. | :01:35. | |
and we know who it is. To try and keep the Strictly dancers a secret, | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
the production team give them appropriate codenames. Like last | :01:41. | :01:47. | |
year I was cake, Baker - bake a cake. We'll meet the first four | :01:47. | :01:57. | |
:01:57. | :02:01. | ||
contestants, but firstly, here is As the celebrities prepare to be | :02:01. | :02:05. | |
judged by Len on live TV, David Cameron is preparing the way for | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
judges in our legal system to be on television too. The Prime Minister | :02:08. | :02:12. | |
wants cameras in the courtroom, but where would that believe a very | :02:12. | :02:20. | |
special breed of artist who call the courts their home? We've all | :02:21. | :02:24. | |
seen the vibrant sketches of defendants in the dock, judges | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
passing sentences and even celebrities protesting their | :02:27. | :02:32. | |
innocence. But, what few people realise is that creating these | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
images requires not only artistic talent, but incredible powers of | :02:37. | :02:41. | |
recall. Courtroom artists spend most of | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
their working lives in court waiting for the perfect moment of | :02:44. | :02:48. | |
emotion, excitement or drama to portray. But they're not allowed to | :02:48. | :02:54. | |
draw in court, so have to memorise every detail. With the aid of a few | :02:54. | :02:57. | |
scribbled notes, create an accurate likeness of their subjects in time | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
for the tough deadlines of the news bulletins. | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
Julia is one of only a handful of courtroom artists working in the UK | :03:04. | :03:09. | |
and has captured moments of history. From cases involving Premier League | :03:09. | :03:18. | |
footballers to the trial of General Pinochet. How long do you have to | :03:18. | :03:22. | |
create a piece of work? One of the most challenging ones was 10.30 in | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
the morning, I had to have a drawing to be filmed for the 1 | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
o'clock news and into the dock filed 13 alleged hijackers. They | :03:31. | :03:35. | |
were varying heights, some had a moustache, long hair, short hair. | :03:35. | :03:38. | |
It's showing the differences that makes the drawing more interesting | :03:38. | :03:41. | |
to show people what it was like in the courtroom, people who aren't | :03:41. | :03:45. | |
able to get in there. You can use your imagination and visualise | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
yourself sitting somewhere else in the court. I might even put myself | :03:50. | :03:54. | |
alongside the judge and see the court from his vantage point. | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
you ever been in a courtroom where you have had to capture the image | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
of a famous person? Many, many times, yes. George Michael, | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
Geoffrey Archer at his libel trial and then the purgery trial. John | :04:07. | :04:12. | |
Terry. Quite a few footballers, sportspeople. That puts added | :04:12. | :04:15. | |
pressure on you because everybody knows what they look like or at | :04:15. | :04:18. | |
least have an idea of what they think they look like but I use the | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
same approach with everybody, I want a good resemblance no matter | :04:21. | :04:29. | |
who it is, whether it be Joe Blogs or somebody very famous. The art of | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
courtroom sketches began with the 1925 Criminal Justice Bill which | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
banned any images from being made in court. After 18 years as a | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
barrister, there's not much Harry Potter QC doesn't know about | :04:42. | :04:45. | |
British law. Harry, how did it come about that cameras aren't allowed | :04:45. | :04:51. | |
in the courtroom? There were a succession of notorious cases from | :04:51. | :04:57. | |
1912 until 1925 which seemed to exemplify the worst fears that the | :04:57. | :05:02. | |
Government had of the excesses of the press, perhaps most dramatic | :05:02. | :05:06. | |
was the trial of Seddon, a particularly notorious murderer. | :05:06. | :05:12. | |
The judge put on the black cap and sentenced him to death. It was | :05:12. | :05:17. | |
precisely at that point that a photograph was taken in the court. | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
This caused quite a lot of disquiet because, of course, this was the | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
high point of the case and the drama. Criminal cases such as those | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
led to the Government inserting clause 41 into the Criminal Justice | :05:33. | :05:40. | |
Act which finally came into force in December 1925. This prohibited | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
the manufacturer of photographs and pictures, as well as the | :05:43. | :05:48. | |
publication of them. In other words, a complete ban. Isn't it time that | :05:48. | :05:53. | |
they allowed photographs and cameras in court now? There are | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
fears, perhaps exemplified by the experience of America. When OJ | :05:57. | :06:01. | |
Simpson for instance was on trial, there seemed to be a lot of history | :06:01. | :06:07. | |
that we wouldn't expect in our court. If that sort of mode of | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
conducting a trial came in as a result of bringing in cameras, the | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
very dignity of the proceedings would be undermined. | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
Introducing cameras to the courtroom would dramatically change | :06:19. | :06:22. | |
the public face of the British legal system. In the meantime, | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
artists like Julia are plying their trade with compassion, patience, | :06:28. | :06:36. | |
speed and considerable artistic talent. Totally surprised to hear | :06:36. | :06:40. | |
that those artists do it all from memory. Incredible. You spend a lot | :06:40. | :06:44. | |
of time in America where the trials are all televised. Do you think | :06:44. | :06:48. | |
it's a good idea? I have watched court TV and, to be honest, the | :06:48. | :06:54. | |
majority of it is so boring because it's all the preambling. I suppose | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
if it's a nitty-gritty and gets maybe down to the last day that can | :06:58. | :07:05. | |
be of interest, but to have it on, it's really boring. | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
Something that certainly isn't boring at all. All this week, we | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
have been following David Walliams as he swims down the Thames to | :07:12. | :07:17. | |
raise money for the Big Splash. struggled through day one so had | :07:17. | :07:21. | |
ground to make up as he started this morning. Day two of Walliams v | :07:21. | :07:26. | |
the thems and David's in Oxfordshire for another day's | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
swimming. The weather's not great, but it's going all right. | :07:32. | :07:35. | |
Despite battling torrential rain and harsh winds, he's delighted | :07:35. | :07:41. | |
with the support he's been receiving. So cold isn't it? Yes, I | :07:41. | :07:47. | |
wouldn't recommend it. It all seems a bit stupid now. Thanks for coming | :07:47. | :07:56. | |
out to support me. David hoped to do 21 miles today and make up lost | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
water and finish in Abingdon. The late sest that he should complete | :08:00. | :08:06. | |
it by 8 o'clock tonight. He's raised �145,000 so far. | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
That is two days down, only six to go. He needs your support. Go to | :08:10. | :08:16. | |
the website for details on how to donate and David, you can find out | :08:16. | :08:21. | |
where he'll be over the next week. The weather is awful. That's why | :08:21. | :08:26. | |
he's swollen because he's so cold. Time to reveal the first four | :08:26. | :08:31. | |
celebrities in zans, 2011. Do remember their codenames were Wasp, | :08:31. | :08:40. | |
Twist, Queen and Star. Let's see if you guessed right. A drumming Wasp | :08:40. | :08:47. | |
from McFly, say hello to Harry Judd. Oliver Twist's Nancy Dalol owe. | :08:47. | :08:52. | |
Giving us a twirl codenamed Queen, she ran the Vic, Anita Dobson and | :08:52. | :09:02. | |
:09:02. | :09:05. | ||
Russell Grant, the Star behind you. Could that be a sign. Listen, I'm | :09:06. | :09:12. | |
so excited about all this, I really am. I can't wait, I really am! | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
Older contestants have done well so what do you think it is about | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
dancing which means that all age groups can compete? I think the | :09:21. | :09:27. | |
older celebrities, I don't think they quite go... More mature shall | :09:27. | :09:34. | |
we say? More mature is nice. They take it for what it is, they don't | :09:34. | :09:38. | |
get the intensity, they get great intensity with their partners and | :09:38. | :09:42. | |
that's the thing, you know, you don't have to be fit and 23 with a | :09:42. | :09:50. | |
six pack to do well. As much as the judges will be the critics, you | :09:50. | :09:54. | |
know, the audience are there cheering them on. Four more names | :09:54. | :09:59. | |
will be revealed very soon. Work out who they are from these real | :09:59. | :10:09. | |
:10:09. | :10:11. | ||
codenames used by the Strictly While you have a think, let's check | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
back in with our photographer Jamie Crawford, who all week is going to | :10:14. | :10:22. | |
extraordinary lengths to take pictures of British wildlife. | :10:22. | :10:26. | |
This is Kings Mill Reservoir in Nottinghamshire, home to a huge | :10:26. | :10:36. | |
range of water foul. And for an area so full of wildlife, it's | :10:36. | :10:42. | |
surprisingly close to the centre of town. But, just off the beaten | :10:42. | :10:46. | |
track. Down through here is a little offshoot called the | :10:46. | :10:50. | |
Hermitage Reserve, which for my money, is even nicer. | :10:50. | :10:54. | |
Fed with water from the main reservoir, the Hermitage is an | :10:54. | :11:00. | |
Oasis of calm and is also home to a colony of herons, the subject of | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
today's photograph. John is a wildlife expert who's | :11:05. | :11:09. | |
been filming the herons since they arrived unexpectedly several years | :11:09. | :11:13. | |
ago. What is going on in the nests at the moment? It's springtime and | :11:13. | :11:17. | |
obviously what is going off is eggs, chicks, parents feeding young. | :11:17. | :11:21. | |
it's a hive of activity? problem is, these herons are | :11:21. | :11:25. | |
nesting at the top of some very tall trees, meaning taking a | :11:25. | :11:31. | |
picture from the ground is almost impossible. I need to get above the | :11:31. | :11:35. | |
nest so I can look down into them and that way, hopefully, get a | :11:35. | :11:41. | |
cracking action photograph. And a scissor lift does just the | :11:41. | :11:46. | |
job. This has been up here for three days sothe herons can get | :11:46. | :11:51. | |
used to it. The best time to photograph them is at the crack of | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
dawn. We're going up. These herons are preparing for eggs and chicks | :11:57. | :12:00. | |
and, although this noise isn't disturbing them, I don't want to | :12:00. | :12:06. | |
push it. George Osborne is giving me just one hour to get my shots | :12:06. | :12:13. | |
before he brings me down -- John is giving me just one hour. It's 12 | :12:13. | :12:23. | |
:12:23. | :12:26. | ||
I can see four nests. It's the most fantastic perspective. It's a | :12:26. | :12:30. | |
heron's eye view. They don't seem to mind that I'm here and they're | :12:30. | :12:39. | |
getting on with their morning routine. | :12:39. | :12:47. | |
Wow, wow. Some are busier than others.... For much of the year, | :12:47. | :12:52. | |
herons feed on their own, but I can see why they come back here to mate. | :12:52. | :12:56. | |
Right by the water, plenty of food. Fantastic spreading branches that | :12:56. | :13:03. | |
they can nest in. Full on. Once a female chooses her mate, the male | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
selects a nesting site and supplies her with everything she needs to | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
build it. It's literally bringing back sticks and giving them to her, | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
planting them where she wants them and making them a proper home. | :13:20. | :13:25. | |
Might be a bit greedy, but I'm really desperate to get one of | :13:25. | :13:33. | |
those fantastic taking off shots. But my hour is nearly up. Go on. | :13:33. | :13:39. | |
Take off! We're going now. Last chance to get | :13:39. | :13:49. | |
:13:49. | :13:52. | ||
There is no way that you can get a better view than this of a heron's | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
nest. Don't forget the camera. | :13:56. | :14:00. | |
I just had the most amazing time. Thank you so much. I can't | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
believe... Thank you. I can't believe that you get this kind of | :14:04. | :14:07. | |
wildlife action in the middle of town. They have chosen this spot | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
and it's because of that that they're so happy. We are not | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
disturbing them at all and that's marvellous. That one is the one to | :14:15. | :14:24. | |
finish up on, two nest-building herons. Really nice. | :14:24. | :14:31. | |
Speaking of photos, we have dug out this little beauty. Don't! 1973 Len, | :14:31. | :14:35. | |
you look fantastic. Look at the hair as well! I was trying to work | :14:35. | :14:40. | |
out what dance were you doing there? It was like the freestyle | :14:40. | :14:46. | |
and I was like a dirty old man and my partner was a stripper and she | :14:46. | :14:51. | |
had a dress on with all these handkerchiefs, chiffon and she | :14:51. | :14:55. | |
flicked them off and gradually we got together and there it was, yes. | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
Fantastic. Let's leave it there. you think if Strictly would have | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
been around in the '60s, would you have been one of the dancers? | :15:05. | :15:10. | |
if they'd have asked me. 100% if they'd have asked me, I would have | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
been there. Do you sometimes feel like getting over the desk? No, you | :15:14. | :15:18. | |
wouldn't want to see my dance, you would frighten the churn. Far | :15:18. | :15:22. | |
better I sit behind the desk. But if I would have been asked when | :15:22. | :15:26. | |
competing and dancing, I would have taken it like a shot. I guess you | :15:26. | :15:29. | |
would have felt protective over your celebrity because a few | :15:29. | :15:35. | |
professionals have a go at you guys. Would you have been the same? | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
definitely would. I would have been the 1960s Brendan Cole I think. Not | :15:39. | :15:43. | |
as aggressive as sometimes he is forwards his partners. You've got | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
to treat your partner with a bit of kindness and respect and bring them | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
along and you have to think you're a team and act like a team and | :15:52. | :15:58. | |
you're together in this. So if the judges were a little bit harsh on | :15:58. | :16:02. | |
my gorgeous partner, whoever that would have been, I would have been | :16:02. | :16:06. | |
at her defence. You are a genius with your turn of phrase but you | :16:06. | :16:13. | |
put a lot of that down to your grandad? My grandad was a proper | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
cockney barrow boy. He was always coming out with humorous little | :16:17. | :16:25. | |
quips, most of which I couldn't repeat. When he moved into judging, | :16:25. | :16:30. | |
not many people know this, but you know a lot to Erin the dancer, | :16:30. | :16:34. | |
don't you? The BBC virtually had their panel of judges and they | :16:34. | :16:37. | |
still weren't sure if they'd got the right one and they asked Erin, | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
can you think of anyone else from the ballroom world that we could | :16:41. | :16:45. | |
ask and she said this one and that one and we've tried that one, what | :16:45. | :16:49. | |
about old Len Goodman, have you given him a go and it was who's he | :16:49. | :16:54. | |
and anyway, I got the call and up I went and oh, I was so excited, I | :16:54. | :16:59. | |
was excited, you know, dressed up particularly gorgeously and in I | :16:59. | :17:03. | |
went to this little room and they kept putting on videos and saying | :17:03. | :17:06. | |
what do you think of that cha-cha- cha and I would say they're | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
filleted in the arms and this and that and whatever. When I came back | :17:12. | :17:15. | |
out I got on the train, I thought, I'm not going to get this job, two | :17:15. | :17:21. | |
days later I got the call, we'd love you to do it. You have been | :17:21. | :17:29. | |
there for nine series. Eh!? I love Erin. And you are judging in | :17:29. | :17:33. | |
America now? Yes. Is it different over there? The show the the same, | :17:33. | :17:39. | |
you've got the judges, the band, the Bruce person, the Tess person, | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
and basically, it's the same. They're a bit more razzamatazz over | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
there and there are hundreds of standing ovations, they're up and | :17:46. | :17:52. | |
down, clapping and screaming, but no, they're very similar over there. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
Can we expect any changes to Strictly this year? That is the | :17:56. | :18:06. | |
:18:06. | :18:08. | ||
other thing that's excited me. on then? Midway through, Wembley | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
Arena, 6,500 people to watch you dance. The finale, or the final, is | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
going to be in Blackpool, the home of dancing, which I think is great | :18:16. | :18:23. | |
for the final. A lovely feeling in that place. Yes. Plus a new hunky | :18:23. | :18:33. | |
:18:33. | :18:33. | ||
dancer. I've seen a picture. Pasha the Siberian Tiger. Look at him! He | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
has a six pack and everything, I'm telling you. Let's find out who he | :18:37. | :18:44. | |
could be dancing with. Time to reveal four more Strictly dancers, | :18:44. | :18:54. | |
:18:54. | :18:55. | ||
Lily, Sloane and Ivy. It's footballer Robbie Savage. Sloane's | :18:55. | :19:05. | |
the code, let's see the face. It's Waterloo Road's Chelsee Healey. Who | :19:05. | :19:10. | |
rose like a Lion? Rory Bremner, that's who. He does a good Brucie. | :19:10. | :19:20. | |
:19:20. | :19:21. | ||
Who is the Ivy over there? Aussie actress singer Holly Valance. | :19:21. | :19:24. | |
So Rory Bremner, if he does an impre-exceptional of you, will you | :19:24. | :19:29. | |
mark him down? I think I'm quite easy because I have this slight | :19:29. | :19:35. | |
impediment with Rs, prawn, prune, prat, anything like that. I'm sure | :19:35. | :19:43. | |
he'd get me off and Bruno, looking forward to him doing him. What | :19:43. | :19:48. | |
should the celebs be doing to prepare at this point then? Well, | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
they should be quaking in their boots a little bit I think. I think | :19:53. | :19:56. | |
they should be trying to build up their energy and get themselves fit | :19:56. | :20:00. | |
because, you know, it is a gruelling affair, you know, you're | :20:00. | :20:04. | |
going to be practising for three, four, five hours a day, so you've | :20:04. | :20:09. | |
got to be fit, focused and you've got to go into it with the attitude | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
that I'm going to enjoy the experience and I think that's the | :20:13. | :20:17. | |
key, go in and enjoy yourself. At four dancers will be revealed | :20:17. | :20:27. | |
:20:27. | :20:33. | ||
soon, so here is the next set of Who could they be? Something | :20:33. | :20:36. | |
different. Electric cars haven't exactly got the best reputation, | :20:36. | :20:40. | |
not least with our friends upstairs from Top Gear. Lucy Siegle believes | :20:40. | :20:44. | |
she's found a car in Lancaster that could change all of that, but not | :20:44. | :20:48. | |
even is on board. Normally there'd be more chance of | :20:48. | :20:55. | |
catching me in the cycle lane than the pit lane. I've never been too | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
keen on the damage petrol heads do to our environment. All in all, I'm | :20:59. | :21:04. | |
probably the wrong person to ask to spend the day racing in a ral Lee | :21:04. | :21:11. | |
car, but it turns out this machine is different -- raleigh. This nifty | :21:11. | :21:16. | |
one litre motor is the world's greenest raleigh car using a fuel | :21:16. | :21:20. | |
efficient petrol and a tuned hybrid system. Not only is it | :21:20. | :21:23. | |
environmentally friendly, it's extremely powerful and in the world | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
of motor sport, it's also incredibly controversial. | :21:27. | :21:32. | |
Can you explain how this technology works? Is it petrol or electric? | :21:32. | :21:37. | |
The answer so that is it's both, it has a petrol engine, an electric | :21:37. | :21:41. | |
motor and a gear box. When the car is accelerating, the petrol engine | :21:41. | :21:46. | |
and electric motor work together to give it more per for mons. The key | :21:46. | :21:50. | |
to their success is not just maximising the petrol and battery | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
trifen motors, but also new technology that harnesses energy | :21:53. | :22:01. | |
normally lost when the car slows down -- driven motors. We are using | :22:01. | :22:05. | |
high performance batterys that can hold more Power than a standard | :22:05. | :22:10. | |
hybrid brat tri, then we have a system of controllers that allow us | :22:10. | :22:15. | |
to harness energy efficiently -- battery. We are increasing the | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
rates of the flow of energy between the front and back of the car where | :22:19. | :22:26. | |
the batteries are. O so proops it's surprising to find that many motor | :22:26. | :22:30. | |
racing enthusiasts are less than enthusiastic about hybrid | :22:30. | :22:37. | |
technology -- or perhaps it's surprising. You like to hear the | :22:37. | :22:42. | |
sound and smell of the petrol. just doesn't sound like a clean cut | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
idea. I like it to be that or that but not half-and-half. | :22:48. | :22:52. | |
expensive and I don't think they represent value for money. Despite | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
the fans' misgivings, when the car was first developed, race officials | :22:56. | :23:03. | |
were prepared to let it complete in the Formula 1000 Championships. | :23:03. | :23:07. | |
When we first started competing six years ago, it was almost a Jock, a | :23:07. | :23:12. | |
radical looking shaisship car and it was very slow, but very quickly, | :23:12. | :23:19. | |
we started untapping its potential -- spaceship car. We were becoming | :23:19. | :23:25. | |
competitive within five or six rallies. Soon there were calls to | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
ban the hybrid. The whole point of the Championship is that it's meant | :23:31. | :23:39. | |
to be competitive. If it stops being competitive, it renders it | :23:39. | :23:47. | |
irrelevant for the fans and competitors alike. The hybrid was | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
reclassified and it was asked to leave the competition. Do you think | :23:51. | :23:55. | |
you are being penalised for your success? Well, yes, it's hard to | :23:55. | :24:02. | |
take. This year was our big chance for glory. But we don't want to | :24:02. | :24:06. | |
upset the other competitors. In fairness to most of the other | :24:06. | :24:08. | |
competitors, they've come out very strongly in support of retaining us | :24:09. | :24:13. | |
in the Championship. More engineering innovation's come out | :24:13. | :24:16. | |
of the British Isles than anywhere else in the world and I applaud the | :24:16. | :24:20. | |
guys but the problem is, it's too damn good and making everyone else | :24:20. | :24:25. | |
look daft. So I may have started the day as a reluctant rallyer, but | :24:26. | :24:31. | |
I'm starting to come round. It's not all about petrol or driving, | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
it's the technology too. Here the race to win could produce | :24:34. | :24:40. | |
engineering breakthroughs that might improve all our lives. We've | :24:40. | :24:45. | |
had over 100 miles to the gallon out of it. So you will save money | :24:45. | :24:50. | |
and have an effective car at the same time. Could we see this | :24:50. | :24:54. | |
technology under this bonnet being under the bonnet of a normal care | :24:54. | :25:01. | |
in a normal driveway? Absolutely. Thanks, Lucy. Let's reveal the next | :25:01. | :25:08. | |
four celebrities to be judged by Len. Glove, Fire, powder and Love. | :25:08. | :25:14. | |
The Gloves are off to reveal loick gold medal winning boxer Audley | :25:14. | :25:22. | |
Harrison. -- Olympic. Lulu, the coldest Fire to relight Len's Fire. | :25:22. | :25:30. | |
Who is next? These lips are never sealed. Edwina Currie. Curry powder. | :25:30. | :25:39. | |
Who is this laid back love? Day break's Dan Lobb. | :25:39. | :25:45. | |
A bit of thigh slapping there, not so much on Audley Harrison though. | :25:45. | :25:53. | |
Lulu, Edwina Currie. What's going on? Audley Harrison is 6'5", size | :25:53. | :25:58. | |
18 feet. Oh! I cannot wait for Saturday night when they get paired | :25:58. | :26:02. | |
up with who they're going to get. You know, after that, they've only | :26:02. | :26:11. | |
got three weeks and then the first live show. The pressure... | :26:11. | :26:16. | |
Fantastic. It's on. How frustrated do the professional dancers get | :26:16. | :26:21. | |
with you? Well, they sometimes get a little frustrated with me but | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
I've known all of them for many, many years, I've judged them as | :26:24. | :26:30. | |
children and professionals, so they know that I'm only speaking with | :26:30. | :26:35. | |
honesty and really, if I critique, it's really just to help. I don't | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
try and bash 'em down or anything like that. I'm the old fuddy duddy | :26:40. | :26:46. | |
ballroom person that tries to get a bit of the technique into the | :26:46. | :26:51. | |
dances. We've revealed 12 of this year's | :26:51. | :26:56. | |
Strictly contestants. Now it's time to meet the 13th, codenamed Dundee. | :26:56. | :27:01. | |
Hang on. That's up side down. Codenamed Dundee. Crocodile Dundee | :27:01. | :27:07. | |
from Down Under, it's Jason Donovan. So, here are all of this year's | :27:07. | :27:11. | |
Strictly celebrities. What a lovely bunch they are. But hang on, have | :27:11. | :27:18. | |
we missed one? Number 14. It's Bridges. I think we can all work | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
:27:29. | :27:30. | ||
that one out. APPLAUSE | :27:30. | :27:36. | |
I feel so nervous and so sick. I've only had two days of practise and | :27:36. | :27:41. | |
my arms are just aching, Len. I don't mean to complain... | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
Never too soon to panic, use know. I'm hoping you are going to get the | :27:46. | :27:54. | |
Siberian Tiger. Oh, hot, hot. the Welsh dragon as well. Who knows. | :27:54. | :28:00. | |
I'd be happy with Matt Baker as my partner. Wasn't he good? Just those | :28:00. | :28:03. | |
flip-flops. I was thinking James or Brendan even would be good. I think | :28:04. | :28:08. | |
somebody that can obviously lift her up. Do you know Len? I don't | :28:08. | :28:16. | |
know at all. What would be your gut instinct? Well, I... It's all to do | :28:16. | :28:22. | |
with height really and I think, you're nicely sized and shaped, you | :28:22. | :28:26. | |
know and everything is nicely proportioned. I'm almost tempted to | :28:26. | :28:30. | |
hang up my judging thing and get out there with you. That could be | :28:30. | :28:38. | |
you! One of the busiest celebrities with working and all that. Remember | :28:38. | :28:43. | |
that, Len, I've got a full-time job. You are going to be under pressure. | :28:43. | :28:48. | |
You can see how Alex and the other contestants find out who their | :28:48. | :28:51. | |
partners will be on the special launch show this Saturday and 6.10 | :28:51. | :28:56. | |
on BBC One. Who would you like it to be? It's | :28:56. | :29:01. |
