Hello and welcome to the One Show with Matt Baker.

:00:18.:00:19.

You think we can talk fast. We have found the fastest talker you will

:00:20.:00:33.

ever hear, possibly. It's the auctioneer and comedian from Storage

:00:34.:00:39.

Hunters, it is of course Sean Kelly. APPLAUSE

:00:40.:00:42.

There he is. People are buying things without actually seeing the

:00:43.:00:46.

goods. In true Storage Hunters style, Sean, can you sell us some

:00:47.:00:49.

guest, my friend. Winner of not one, not two,

:00:50.:00:54.

but six Olympic Gold medals. He comes as a pair with a star

:00:55.:01:03.

of League of Gentleman, Please welcome Sir Chris Hoy and

:01:04.:01:38.

Mark Gatiss. Hello. . ?45,000. That's not bad. Have you bid for

:01:39.:01:41.

anything at an auction either of you? Yes. I bought two paintings.

:01:42.:01:48.

This leg and arm are still missing. Proper paintings? Yes. That's the

:01:49.:01:54.

thing with auctions if you lose you get your money back. If you are

:01:55.:01:58.

bidding on something. What about yourself? Charity auctions. I've

:01:59.:02:02.

never won anything. You bump the price up. You have to go higher. I'm

:02:03.:02:09.

a Scot, I'm stingy, this's the trouble. In films when you accident

:02:10.:02:15.

Ali sneeze and you pay money. Very exciting, genuinely exciting. I love

:02:16.:02:26.

auctions. We bought accordions. There's a programme in that. We have

:02:27.:02:33.

five novice I cyclists. They learnt in two hours yesterday. Am we will

:02:34.:02:37.

have all of the results a little bit later on. They are in the studio

:02:38.:02:41.

with us tonight. It's quite something that, isn't it? It is. Do

:02:42.:02:46.

you remember learning to ride a bike yourself? My brother's Rayleigh

:02:47.:02:56.

Jeep. You got that injury. The gravel in the arms. All the time.

:02:57.:03:01.

When you spin the pedals around and it hits you in your shins. Yes. I

:03:02.:03:07.

remember getting my flares caught in the wheel and having to go to school

:03:08.:03:12.

with the imprint of the chain. So embarrassing. Were you good at

:03:13.:03:17.

riding? Is I was about six when I learnt. I wasn't that young. I was

:03:18.:03:21.

at a friends house. His younger brother was four, he could ride a

:03:22.:03:24.

bike iech thought, I'm not having this. You made up for it. You have.

:03:25.:03:31.

We have 60-year-olds who had a go yesterday. Never riden a bike

:03:32.:03:35.

before. Never tried. See what happens later on.

:03:36.:03:47.

Sean is known for opening up and discovering the contents

:03:48.:03:49.

of storage units, so we've decided to do the same live

:03:50.:03:52.

This is the unit in Wales. It's Alex's. She hasn't looked inside

:03:53.:03:59.

this storage unit, have you, for the best part of a decade. How have you

:04:00.:04:04.

not looked in that thing? The day before I came to London I put

:04:05.:04:06.

everything from the house where I lived in there. That was it. Was

:04:07.:04:13.

that the same day your ex went missing? I'm nervous I don't know

:04:14.:04:19.

where I agreed. No idea what's in there. We have a camera live and

:04:20.:04:26.

opening it up shortly. Well, I don't want to be the only

:04:27.:04:31.

one doing this tonight. We want to open the garage

:04:32.:04:34.

doors of Britain. And who has got the weirdest

:04:35.:04:38.

items hidden inside? Send us a photo to the usual address

:04:39.:04:42.

and we'll get Sean's opinions later. Tomorrow, many of us will be heading

:04:43.:04:46.

to the polls marking an 'X' on a bit of paper and then dropping it

:04:47.:04:49.

into a box. Then it's a waiting game

:04:50.:04:52.

for the first result to be declared. In the North East, there's a fierce

:04:53.:04:55.

local rivalry to be the first We sent Iwan, our fastest reporter

:04:56.:04:58.

on two feet, to find out more. At the last general election in 2015

:04:59.:05:11.

the fist declaration of results was 48 minutes after the polls closed.

:05:12.:05:18.

The total number of votes for each candidate for the Houghton and

:05:19.:05:22.

Sunderland South constituency is as follows: In fact, Houghton and

:05:23.:05:27.

Sunderland South have been the first to deliver their results for the

:05:28.:05:32.

past six general elections. Now their neighbours here in Newcastle

:05:33.:05:35.

Central feel ready to give them a run for their money. I'm going to

:05:36.:05:38.

meet the people behind-the-scenes to discover just what it takes to win

:05:39.:05:47.

the race for the fastest count. This scout hut is transforming into one

:05:48.:05:52.

of 128 polling station across the country. At 10.00pm tomorrow night,

:05:53.:05:58.

when the polls close, the race will begin. Here it's the responsibility

:05:59.:06:04.

of Presiding Officer Joanne Riley. No pressure. Do you fancy doing a

:06:05.:06:12.

dummy run? We can do. Pretend it's Thursday night, 10.00pm. The box is

:06:13.:06:15.

ready. Shall we see how fast it will take you. No speeding. Don't want to

:06:16.:06:20.

do that. Let's go. Do you want a hand with it, are you OK? No, I'm

:06:21.:06:24.

fine. I won't be here Thursday. Joanne

:06:25.:06:28.

works as a medical secretary for the NHS. 10 seconds already. Come

:06:29.:06:31.

election night, she will make the four mile journey to the counting

:06:32.:06:35.

station with herbal lot box, and it could contain up to 1,000 very

:06:36.:06:42.

important votes. Do you know the quickest route? Yes. It should take

:06:43.:06:46.

five to ten minutes maximum to get there. Only if the traffic lights

:06:47.:06:50.

are on her side. You are just over three minutes at the moment. Oh,

:06:51.:06:55.

right. That's 20 seconds already at this light. We are now on ten

:06:56.:07:00.

minutes. We have another red light. The green Gods are not on our side.

:07:01.:07:04.

In fact we hit seven red traffic lights on our journey to the

:07:05.:07:09.

counting station. You have not beaten your ten minute predicted

:07:10.:07:12.

time. 12.39. Saying that. We did have a lot of red lights. We did. I

:07:13.:07:17.

think come Thursday at 10.00pm in the evening you will go sub-10. 9.25

:07:18.:07:23.

is my prediction. I will go under nine. All of Newcastle Central's

:07:24.:07:30.

ballot boxes need to get here to the Northumbria University Sports Centre

:07:31.:07:34.

Arena. As the car arrives at the back door, it's actions stations. A

:07:35.:07:38.

marshal whips the box off my lap and hands it over to a highly trained

:07:39.:07:43.

relay team. They're quick. Wait for me! Jack, Brogan, Emily and Alex are

:07:44.:07:53.

four of 30 students who have been especially selected to run the

:07:54.:07:59.

ballot boxes. All members of the university's sports teams, the guys

:08:00.:08:03.

are in peak physical condition. Anybody tired yet? Not even

:08:04.:08:08.

slightly. That's fighting talk. Do you feel pressure? Yes. We like to

:08:09.:08:13.

take it seriously. We are competitive with ever other place

:08:14.:08:17.

doing that. We are sporty people and competitive. We will be out there

:08:18.:08:20.

trying to get the best time. The students deliver the ballot boxes to

:08:21.:08:24.

the vote counters, eagerly posed to tackle another essential part of the

:08:25.:08:30.

process. Michael Stephenson works in a casino. He is used to handling

:08:31.:08:35.

half million poker games, on be election night he will swap

:08:36.:08:40.

uncoulding cash for verifying votes. A lot of my money is counting money.

:08:41.:08:46.

You must have supersonic thumbs. You must be good with your hands if you

:08:47.:08:54.

work in a casino. Yes. If everyone in Newcastle Central votes, they

:08:55.:08:59.

could have their hands full. 50,000, 55,000. That's a lot. That is a lot,

:09:00.:09:05.

yeah. For now, as Michael's team practice, the vote that really

:09:06.:09:08.

counts is what biscuit will be selected to keep them all going on

:09:09.:09:13.

the night? Guys, who has won it? It's an absolute landslide for the

:09:14.:09:19.

bourbon cream. Absolute landslide. I knew it. Tomorrow night Pat Ritchie

:09:20.:09:25.

will announce Newcastle Central's results. Does she think they will

:09:26.:09:30.

can cross the line before their neighbours in Sunderland? Could you

:09:31.:09:35.

be the fist result in We were first to declare in the national

:09:36.:09:38.

referendum. The team were proud of that. I think for the team it would

:09:39.:09:42.

be great to be a very early announcement. So, will all the

:09:43.:09:46.

painstaking planning and detailed preparation pay off? We will find

:09:47.:09:53.

out tomorrow night! Joe is with us now. Houghton and Sunderland South

:09:54.:09:58.

have got the result in first for the last six elections. How are they so

:09:59.:10:02.

fast, Joe? The fist thing they would say it's not a race, it's a serious

:10:03.:10:08.

democratic process. You saw in Iwan's film traffic lights featured.

:10:09.:10:12.

There is a rumour the council alter the traffic lights to get the ballot

:10:13.:10:16.

boxes back quickly. That's hard to believe. The council deny that. They

:10:17.:10:22.

say they are focused on it being accurate and I fishent. We didn't

:10:23.:10:27.

see how they go about counting votes, the process they go through?

:10:28.:10:31.

When the polling stationses close, the ballot boxes are sealed, they

:10:32.:10:35.

are driven to counting locations. Emptied, checked the boxes are

:10:36.:10:38.

properly empty. They separate the votes by candidate, as you expect.

:10:39.:10:42.

With the pile of votes for each candidate they separate them into

:10:43.:10:46.

bundles. Predetermined numbers. One person counts them out. Another

:10:47.:10:49.

person will go through and count them again. Then a supervisor will

:10:50.:10:54.

flick through and make sure there is no obvious errors. They can count up

:10:55.:10:59.

all the candidates votes. For some it's an event or a day to go to the

:11:00.:11:02.

polling station. For others, it's quite different. We have this map.

:11:03.:11:07.

We have some places of some very quirky polling station, Joe.

:11:08.:11:10.

Remarkable ones. We start in the south coast. We have a windmill in

:11:11.:11:16.

Hove. A grade II listed windmill dating back to the 18 20s.

:11:17.:11:23.

Remarkable place. Beautiful. Another one is in Sheffiel the oldest

:11:24.:11:31.

football ground, dating back to 18 60. Is that is in Sheffield. We have

:11:32.:11:40.

a kitchen. Liz and Peter in Driffield in East Yorkshire. Very

:11:41.:11:44.

remote location. They volunteered their kitchen to be the polling

:11:45.:11:48.

station. They get 30 to 35 voters coming in. I believe Liz goes with

:11:49.:11:54.

the official and drives the box in. It's remote it won't be one of the

:11:55.:11:57.

first to declare. It will take a while to get that ballot box to the

:11:58.:12:03.

counting location. We have a laundrette in Oxford. Nice and warm,

:12:04.:12:12.

do a wash. Do they close it while the voting is going on? No word. We

:12:13.:12:17.

might have to go to the spin doctors! Wandsworth Council have a

:12:18.:12:20.

bus on stand by. An emergency bus. If one of their polling stations

:12:21.:12:26.

closes, a flood or power failure, they can get the bus there in 30

:12:27.:12:31.

minutes to take over and be the polling station. Thank you. Chris

:12:32.:12:35.

you are trying to recruit people, not for political reasons, but for

:12:36.:12:41.

cycling. Closing city centres and putting en masse bike rides Yes. The

:12:42.:12:46.

City Ride scheme. The first one is in Birmingham this weekend, on

:12:47.:12:49.

Sunday. It's basically they are closing down the roads. A mass

:12:50.:12:52.

participation thing. Not a race. Anybody can do it. It's free. You

:12:53.:12:59.

registered online at let'sride.co.uk. It's encouraging

:13:00.:13:04.

people to ride their bikes in a motorised traffic-free environment.

:13:05.:13:07.

You see the city centres in a different way. It's great fun.

:13:08.:13:11.

That's the thing that puts me off riding a bike in London. I'm Petula

:13:12.:13:15.

arified of the traffic. To have the opportunity to cycle through without

:13:16.:13:19.

any cars or buses or whatever on the Rhodes, that is a dream really,

:13:20.:13:23.

isn't it? It is. Can give people the confidence to ride in traffic. Once

:13:24.:13:26.

you get back on your bike you get the incentive. We are trying to

:13:27.:13:31.

inspire two million extra people to ride their bikes by 2020. This is a

:13:32.:13:35.

way to kick-start this procedure. Does it cost anything to join? Free

:13:36.:13:39.

to register. You turn up, anyone can do it. Do one lap, 20 lapse. Ride

:13:40.:13:44.

around all day. Would you turn it into a race? I'm competitive. Even I

:13:45.:13:49.

could have fun on that day. It's great, if you get good weather it

:13:50.:13:52.

make it is get better. Other activities go on too. You don't have

:13:53.:13:56.

to cycle, you can stop and enjoy other things too. It should be

:13:57.:13:59.

great. Is that something you would be interested in doing? I ride a

:14:00.:14:04.

bike a bit for exercise. It's terrifying to ride through London.

:14:05.:14:08.

It really puts me off. Huge admiration when you see people

:14:09.:14:11.

riding through traffic. It terrifies me. If it's traffic-free I would be

:14:12.:14:16.

very much up for that. Do you get scared riding in traffic, Chris? I

:14:17.:14:20.

think the more experienced you are, the more you focus on what you have

:14:21.:14:24.

control over and you ride defensively and you think ahead and

:14:25.:14:27.

you look ahead. It's intimidating for new cyclists. That is why we're

:14:28.:14:31.

trying to do these activities to make it an easy entry into making

:14:32.:14:35.

cycling a regular part of your routine. Families, parents with

:14:36.:14:40.

young children to ride through the city centre. If you listen to bus

:14:41.:14:45.

drivers or cab drivers it's like they are in Death Race 2,000. Their

:14:46.:14:50.

attitude to skiebg lists is horrible. Cycling has grown quickly

:14:51.:14:56.

in the last ten years. Denmark, Germany it has been part of their

:14:57.:15:01.

life for generations. It will improve. It's getting better. A move

:15:02.:15:06.

in the right direction. There are horror stories. As long as we

:15:07.:15:09.

pressurise the people to make decisions to improve the roads for

:15:10.:15:12.

cyclists for everybody. If you don't ride a bike it will help you, it

:15:13.:15:17.

will take people off the roads, reduce the traffic, congestion. They

:15:18.:15:21.

are happening all over the UK? Birmingham this weekend, 14 between

:15:22.:15:25.

now and the end of September. Main cities around the UK. Edinburgh is

:15:26.:15:28.

having it on the 3rd September. We are Epping hoping for tens of

:15:29.:15:31.

thousands of people to turn out. It will be great fun. Anybody who

:15:32.:15:38.

fancies it, come down, register online at let'sride.co.uk. Are you

:15:39.:15:43.

sure? I think so. While you have been recruiting cyclists for the

:15:44.:15:46.

City Rides we thought we would train up a few. We did.

:15:47.:15:56.

Tonight we have Sandra, Amanda, Sandra again, Darcy and Maggie.

:15:57.:15:59.

A big range of ages, as you see, but with one thing in common -

:16:00.:16:02.

Or rather, as of yesterday, none of them could.

:16:03.:16:06.

So we set up our very own One Show cycling school last night,

:16:07.:16:09.

under the expert instruction from some of the guys

:16:10.:16:11.

So, who managed to lose their stabilizers?

:16:12.:16:17.

Let's find out. We will start with Sandras. You both share the age, I

:16:18.:16:26.

hope you don't mind me saying, of 60, so the next question is how have

:16:27.:16:30.

you managed to get to the age of 60 without riding a bike? I was brought

:16:31.:16:35.

up on a very busy main road on my parents wouldn't let me have a bike

:16:36.:16:38.

because they didn't think it was safe for me to cycle in the traffic,

:16:39.:16:41.

which is probably fair enough and by the time you get to be a it is not

:16:42.:16:52.

cool to say you can't ride and it is too late to learn them, the longer

:16:53.:16:55.

you leave it, the harder it is. Shall we have a look at you trying.

:16:56.:16:58.

You look quite confident there. How did it feel when you were up and

:16:59.:17:04.

running? It felt fabulous. A little stumble, did that knock your

:17:05.:17:09.

confidence? No, it was a time of fun interspersed by total panic and

:17:10.:17:13.

horror but it was really good and it hasn't put me off and I am really

:17:14.:17:18.

excited. I am going to do some more lessons. I live near Stratford so my

:17:19.:17:22.

next step is to be with Sir Chris at the velodrome. Tremendous. Sandro,

:17:23.:17:30.

we know, I do especially, that you have a very inspirational cyclist in

:17:31.:17:35.

your family. I will let you as a proud mum explain. My son Alex did

:17:36.:17:42.

the Rickshaw Challenge in 2014. He learned that year and to go on and

:17:43.:17:46.

do that makes me feel like I want to do something myself. How was the

:17:47.:17:50.

experience the you, considering the reasons you weren't doing it before?

:17:51.:17:55.

It was nerve-racking. I was very, very nervous but it felt wonderful

:17:56.:18:03.

once I moved on. There you go. There is that feeling of freedom. What has

:18:04.:18:08.

been holding you back? Is it fear? Yes, I am a bit of a coward and a

:18:09.:18:12.

bit of a wimp and don't like anything dangerous. What would you

:18:13.:18:15.

say to anyone watching this, looking at you as a real inspiration? You

:18:16.:18:20.

can do it, you have just got to get out there and do it and I want to do

:18:21.:18:24.

more lessons and I want to be out on the road at some stage. Good for

:18:25.:18:29.

you. Amanda, you did lose the stabilisers but we will find out in

:18:30.:18:32.

a minute, you didn't even start with any. How will you feeling in the

:18:33.:18:37.

morning in comparison to the afternoon? I was really nervous

:18:38.:18:41.

yesterday morning but I surprised myself, I got on the bike and did it

:18:42.:18:46.

and it was great. Do you want to see your effort? Go on, then. There you

:18:47.:18:52.

are, looking very good. David Howell practising inside or did it feel

:18:53.:18:57.

strange in a sports hall? -- did it feel better practising inside.

:18:58.:19:01.

Because it was quite enclosed, it was a safe environment. The only

:19:02.:19:05.

problem was then, I nearly went into a flag. Those things happen and you

:19:06.:19:09.

are here to tell the story. Are you going to get a bike? Definitely,

:19:10.:19:13.

going to continue with some of my lessons and get some confidence and

:19:14.:19:17.

take it from there. Let's have a word with your instructor. Michael,

:19:18.:19:21.

what is the key to this? In some cases, we are talking less than an

:19:22.:19:26.

hour. Yes, in less than an hour in some cases. The key is balanced so

:19:27.:19:31.

we aim to use not any stabilisers so that the riders can find their point

:19:32.:19:36.

of balance and we often start of by taking their pedals off, so we could

:19:37.:19:42.

have saved Chris's shins years ago. We take them off and get them to

:19:43.:19:46.

start striding, walking with the bike and then they settle themselves

:19:47.:19:52.

onto the bike and let the bike basically... We take their feet off

:19:53.:19:55.

the ground and let the bike run and when they have found the balance

:19:56.:19:58.

point, we put the pedals back on and they are off. And Philippa, it

:19:59.:20:02.

doesn't really matter what age, if you are talking about balance bikes,

:20:03.:20:07.

a soonish you can walk, you can have one. That's right, as soon as your

:20:08.:20:13.

feet touch the ground, you are off and if you are a child, you stick

:20:14.:20:16.

the pedals back on, or your parents do, and off you go. It is when you

:20:17.:20:22.

get bigger, overthinking it and learning to ride a bike as an adult

:20:23.:20:26.

is life transformational because you just don't believe you're going to

:20:27.:20:29.

do it. I am going to have a word with two of the youngest members,

:20:30.:20:33.

Darcy and Maggie. Let's give you all the huge round of applause. You

:20:34.:20:40.

absolutely smashed it. Darcy, what was the hardest bit for you? The

corners. Let's have a look at you, it doesn't look like you are having

:20:47.:20:49.

any problems with these corners at all. Your dad is a big member of

:20:50.:20:56.

Cycle Confident. Did we see the corner? Let's have a look at the

:20:57.:20:59.

corner, this is the best bit. There you go, all the way around, look at

:21:00.:21:07.

that. Absolutely superb. And, Maggie, we know you did very well

:21:08.:21:10.

indeed. Let's have a little fist pump, well done. I think you all

:21:11.:21:18.

deserve medals from a six time Olympic gold medallist, so, Chris,

:21:19.:21:23.

come on in. Here we go! There we are, we've got Darcy, Maggie, all of

:21:24.:21:28.

the Sandros and Amanda and we have to say a very big thank you to

:21:29.:21:34.

everybody and certainly the cycle instructors from Cycle Confident,

:21:35.:21:36.

getting people cycling in less than an hour.

:21:37.:21:38.

Absolutely brilliant. It's amazing what can happen

:21:39.:21:41.

when you try something new. Here's Matt Allwright on how one

:21:42.:21:44.

novice sportsman conquered the world of male synchronised swimming,

:21:45.:21:46.

and his story is now being made Midlife crisis is are dangerous

:21:47.:21:56.

times for a man. Before you know it, in your 40s, you are doing things

:21:57.:22:01.

you always wanted to but never dared to. Going to Glastonbury, joining a

:22:02.:22:07.

band, buying a sports car, a motorbike or synchronised swimming.

:22:08.:22:10.

A slightly less macho Fixborough midlife crisis but one that was

:22:11.:22:13.

perfect for Dylan Williams. And as luck would have it, he filmed his

:22:14.:22:19.

own unusual journey of self-discovery for a documentary. I

:22:20.:22:22.

had moved to Sweden from Wales and was a little bit lost. I had kind of

:22:23.:22:26.

moved over there because I had a baby and got married and suddenly, I

:22:27.:22:31.

didn't have a job and I didn't have any friends. When I guy who I knew

:22:32.:22:37.

came, a bunch -- he said a bunch of us are going to start a team and

:22:38.:22:40.

would you like to be in it and I said yes before he even told me what

:22:41.:22:45.

the team was and he said it was male synchronised screaming and I

:22:46.:22:47.

thought, fantastic, I am in for that. -- synchronised swimming.

:22:48.:22:52.

Dylan and his friends thought they were the only men doing synchronised

:22:53.:22:55.

swimming but he soon discovered they were wrong. They also learned there

:22:56.:22:58.

was a world championship taking place in Milan.

:22:59.:23:10.

They had just three months to get their act together but nobody in

:23:11.:23:15.

Dylan's Swedish team thought they stood a chance of winning.

:23:16.:23:29.

Getting to know and had been an achievement in itself. Now they just

:23:30.:23:35.

hoped they wouldn't come last -- getting to Milan. The team have

:23:36.:23:42.

parts in a new movie based on their story, but they are not playing

:23:43.:23:47.

themselves. A version of Dylan is played by the multitalented Rob

:23:48.:23:50.

Brydon, who has had to learn a new set of skills.

:23:51.:23:53.

You have been training very hard, I understand. What is the first thing

:23:54.:23:59.

I should learn? The eggbeater. It is very hard to do. So there is the

:24:00.:24:03.

fire and there is the lower part of the egg, the Sinn -- there is the

:24:04.:24:11.

five. The foot then comes out. They crossover each other but come out at

:24:12.:24:15.

the same time and if you do it properly, your body will come out of

:24:16.:24:18.

the water to about there, you can move from side to side but, I mean,

:24:19.:24:26.

it has beaten me. I am in the film as a Japanese

:24:27.:24:35.

supporter, obviously. SPEAKS JAPANESE. All of these guys have

:24:36.:24:43.

their back story, whether it is forgotten dreams, one is a widow

:24:44.:24:48.

facing life on her own markedly -- his own and as the film developed,

:24:49.:24:52.

you develop their back stories and the workings of the characters and

:24:53.:24:57.

that was the quality of the script. In Milan, Dylan's team gave a

:24:58.:25:02.

quality performance. So good, in fact, that they won the competition

:25:03.:25:03.

and became world champions. Are we seeing here writ large on the

:25:04.:25:20.

silver screen your midlife crisis? I didn't know what I could do in life

:25:21.:25:25.

and I was feeling a little bit lost. I think for me, this film is about

:25:26.:25:30.

community. I found a group of people who with I could escape and learn to

:25:31.:25:34.

find myself again and learn to play, finding my place in society. What a

:25:35.:25:41.

story. And I am looking forward to seeing Rob Brydon do the eggbeater.

:25:42.:25:43.

You have heard the technique. The film, Swimming With Men,

:25:44.:25:46.

is in production now. Mark, we saw Daniel Mays there,

:25:47.:25:55.

starring in the film, and you have been working with him recently. Yes,

:25:56.:26:00.

I have just been doing a drama called Against The Law, for the 50th

:26:01.:26:05.

anniversary of the decriminalisation of homosexuality in this country. It

:26:06.:26:11.

is a fantastic drama about the Peter while Brooke trial. And I am also

:26:12.:26:16.

directing and curating a series of monologues for the BBC around the

:26:17.:26:23.

same subject, it is the 1967 act. Time has flown. That is the thing,

:26:24.:26:27.

it is whether or not you are acting, directing, the mix. But you do.

:26:28.:26:31.

Still no synchronised swimming. No Olympic cycling.

:26:32.:26:36.

This is the ninth Doctor Who you've penned.

:26:37.:26:40.

We have it on good authority that it is the Ice Warriors versus the

:26:41.:26:48.

Victorians. I am baffled. Fill in the blanks, what is going on? Well,

:26:49.:26:54.

the Ice Warriors, one of my favourite monsters from the 1960s

:26:55.:26:59.

and 1970s. And there are Victorians on Mars, as the doctor discovers,

:27:00.:27:03.

they have got there, so it is kind of like Edgar Rice Burroughs kind of

:27:04.:27:13.

treat, and the ice Queen is there. Set the scene for us, is this... As

:27:14.:27:21.

far as writing this is concerned, the room you are writing income ie

:27:22.:27:29.

wearing a pair of slippers...? No, I was on Mars no, I have a room at the

:27:30.:27:32.

top of the House, no phone, no Internet and if the landline rings,

:27:33.:27:37.

it is always my dad and it is somehow always just too far to get

:27:38.:27:42.

to before it rings of. I have timed it appallingly. But it is a nice

:27:43.:27:47.

little room, a conducive place to conjure up these things. Do you

:27:48.:27:51.

write in the morning or the evening? I am a morning writer. I have tried

:27:52.:27:55.

all kinds of things but morning is definitely best, I fade as the day

:27:56.:27:59.

goes on. And there are no boundaries, the brief is so wide.

:28:00.:28:05.

How on earth do you decide? That is the brilliant thing but at the same

:28:06.:28:08.

time, you have to think about how it is going to be achieved. One of the

:28:09.:28:12.

great things about Doctor Who always is the settings will tend to be a

:28:13.:28:16.

kind of isolated group of humans under threat, rather than an

:28:17.:28:21.

enormous... I have done the Ice Warriors on Mars but it is not the

:28:22.:28:26.

whole civilisation, it is an isolated Victorian expedition and a

:28:27.:28:29.

kind of tomb, so you have to think about how it is achieved. Are you

:28:30.:28:34.

given those pieces, if you like, like the Ice Warriors? Sometimes it

:28:35.:28:40.

is a shopping list. Steven Moffat is leaving, Peter Capaldi is sadly

:28:41.:28:43.

living and I just said, can I do the story I have always wanted to and he

:28:44.:28:51.

said, go on -- sadly leaving. I would like to see inside your head.

:28:52.:28:55.

It is like your storage unit! I have not! Here is one of the encounters

:28:56.:29:07.

from Saturday. What the devil is going on? Let me sort this out. Who

:29:08.:29:14.

the devil is this? The Empress of Mars. And you think you can go

:29:15.:29:18.

around slaughtering my men willy-nilly? Your men? What does the

:29:19.:29:29.

pink thing say? It will have loads of people talking, thanks bring

:29:30.:29:32.

enough. As far as Doctor Who is concerned, you were talking about

:29:33.:29:36.

the style the story and it is very educational, it is sort of real

:29:37.:29:41.

history... There were no Victorians on Mars. Wasn't that the original

:29:42.:29:45.

idea with Doctor Who, Tich kind of teacher? There is a semi-educational

:29:46.:29:53.

element to Doctor Who. The first one I did at Macca delete with

:29:54.:29:57.

Christopher Ecclestone, which had Simon Callow as Charles Dickens, I

:29:58.:30:01.

had lots of messages afters, Harry Enfield sent the one saying his kids

:30:02.:30:04.

had been googling the Charles Dickens for three hours. It is a

:30:05.:30:10.

lovely thing to think that that is what shows such as Doctor Who do so

:30:11.:30:15.

well, you can present complicated ideas and a very accessible format.

:30:16.:30:17.

We look forward to Saturday. If our next film was an episode

:30:18.:30:20.

of Doctor Who it'd probably be We know you are super excited about

:30:21.:30:27.

this one. I am. But, as Mike's been discovering,

:30:28.:30:32.

rather than keeping them out, people are going to great lengths

:30:33.:30:34.

to make sure they get Having hatched in the mid-Atlantic,

:30:35.:30:45.

European eels cross the ocean, for most, on a journey to freshwater

:30:46.:30:49.

rivers but once they arrive to our shores, their party is being

:30:50.:30:55.

blocked, causing many to perish. So to see what's going on, the One Show

:31:16.:31:21.

defences have been built to protect land and property they have a

:31:22.:31:26.

detrimental effect on this species. Thanks to the work of Andrew's

:31:27.:31:32.

group, these structures are being adapted to allow safe passage for

:31:33.:31:36.

the eels. There are lots of mod nigh cases. The Brits are really good at

:31:37.:31:40.

it. We have put in hundreds and hundreds of them. In particular,

:31:41.:31:44.

when you get these flat doors. You can have a cat flap model. A mini

:31:45.:31:50.

pet flap opens and closes then the eels can come through. This doesn't

:31:51.:31:56.

come cheap. The water companies are spending ?80 million in the next

:31:57.:32:00.

four years introducing all sorts of passage solutions. It strikes me

:32:01.:32:10.

that one species you are spending a lot of money to conserve them.

:32:11.:32:21.

Everyone eats eels, if you are a heron or an otter. They come across

other obstacles, but eel passes have been installed to help them on their

way. Richard is from the Environment Agency. It's simplistic in design.

:32:33.:32:40.

It's effective. It has a channel with bristle brushes which enables

:32:41.:32:43.

them to grip and wriggle up-and-over the structure. Eels prefer to move

:32:44.:32:48.

during the dark, on moonless nights and when river levels are high. Help

:32:49.:32:56.

is also coming from a more traditional method. Looking

:32:57.:33:05.

up-and-down the bank I can see quite a few eel fishermen out tonight and

:33:06.:33:09.

women. Why are you fishing an animal which is already registered as

:33:10.:33:13.

endangered? So many projects we do to help them along. Without the

:33:14.:33:18.

fishing you wouldn't get the data to improve they are endangered. The

:33:19.:33:22.

only way to count baby eels is for fishermen to do what they are doing.

:33:23.:33:29.

They are caught further down river before encountering flood defences

:33:30.:33:34.

or other obstacles? . We have five or six there. I have had worse. Full

:33:35.:33:39.

of admiration for you doing this for three or four hours. I've done one

:33:40.:33:43.

and it's quite tiring. It is exhausting. You do get more used to

:33:44.:33:49.

it as you go along. From Anna's catch some will go on to be farmed

:33:50.:33:54.

for human consumption. Over half are given to restocking projects like

:33:55.:34:01.

the one run by Andrew. Today he is releasing 15,000 eels into wetland

:34:02.:34:07.

habitat. How is it going so far the project? If you asked me the

:34:08.:34:12.

question in 2009 when the west country fishermen caught a million

:34:13.:34:17.

eels we were in despair. Here, and now, we are catching on average 15

:34:18.:34:20.

million a year. Things are improving. Technique for releasing

:34:21.:34:25.

them? Yes, slowly let the water in. Then just watch them go. Wonderful.

:34:26.:34:33.

Look at them swimming away. That is terrific. The the very best of luck.

:34:34.:34:41.

Beautiful. Job done. It's down to Andrew and his team and other

:34:42.:34:45.

agencies and the fishing communities working so effectively together that

:34:46.:34:48.

will hopefully give this fish a fighting chance so that the European

:34:49.:34:53.

eel remains a fixture in our rivers and wetlands for many years to come.

:34:54.:35:02.

What a wonderful story. Hopefully that will help the eels watching who

:35:03.:35:07.

want to go on holiday. Whoop knows! Is The eels went to Morocco. Chris

:35:08.:35:14.

your latest adventure is cycling in the Southkm Pole you are always

:35:15.:35:22.

looking for adrenaline-filled adventures. Why this one? It's a

:35:23.:35:27.

freezing cold one. There's the bike you will do it on? That's it. We

:35:28.:35:31.

will will cycle from the coastline to the South Pole faster than

:35:32.:35:36.

anybody has ever gone on a human powered journey. What is the record

:35:37.:35:40.

at the moment? Just over ten days. The human powered record I think,

:35:41.:35:45.

done on skis, was about eight days or seven days. Trying to do quicker

:35:46.:35:50.

than that. It will mean about 12-hours of cycling and then jumping

:35:51.:35:55.

in a tent, get food, sleep and back up in the morning and do it again

:35:56.:35:59.

for a week. At what stage are you at with this then? Are you doing it on

:36:00.:36:03.

your own? Potentially we found a partner to ride with. They are

:36:04.:36:07.

somebody who is not a cyclist or a sports person. Pretty high-profile.

:36:08.:36:13.

It's me! It's one of our guests tonight who just learnt to cycle,

:36:14.:36:17.

actually. Not confirmed. Not confirmed. They are going through

:36:18.:36:22.

testing to see if they will be ready for it or if they have a baseline

:36:23.:36:26.

that will be able to get to that level of fitness. Male or female?

:36:27.:36:31.

Can't tell you that. You could have said Matt Baker. He would have been

:36:32.:36:34.

up for it? He hates the cold. Well... For any of you in the mood

:36:35.:36:40.

for something floral this weekend. Look no further.

:36:41.:36:44.

The people behind the Chelsea Flower Show have just opened the first

:36:45.:36:47.

new show at the historic Chatsworth House in a decade.

:36:48.:36:49.

We sent Angellica behind the scenes, and even the rain couldn't

:36:50.:36:52.

Chatsworth House is home to the Duke and Duchess of Devon shire. It has

:36:53.:37:07.

been passed down through the family since the 1500s. It's the home for

:37:08.:37:12.

the fist time to the Royal Horticultural Society's flower show.

:37:13.:37:17.

It's stuffed full of display gardens and flowers set around the River

:37:18.:37:21.

Derwent which runs through the grounds. It's a wet day, the

:37:22.:37:24.

exhibitors are braving the conditions and some are hoping to

:37:25.:37:29.

win medals. Tell us about this masterpiece, Jonathan, that you

:37:30.:37:32.

created? It's my floral bridge at Chatsworth. It's a flower explosion.

:37:33.:37:36.

It's a flower show. People want to see flowers. What would you say is

:37:37.:37:41.

the Mona Lisa of flowers? I should show you. Come on. It's atmospheric

:37:42.:37:47.

in this part here, isn't it? Moody and full of particular textures and

:37:48.:37:50.

colours. It invites you into it. What flower will you show me? For me

:37:51.:38:02.

it has to be this. English, perfect and smells great. They demolished a

:38:03.:38:08.

Victorian glasshouse which was the centrepiece here, just for the show

:38:09.:38:11.

they recreated this with this massive inflatable one. It feels

:38:12.:38:19.

like I've walked into the middle of a tropical rainforest. Slap back

:38:20.:38:24.

bang in the middle is a Glitterball. In keeping with the show's

:38:25.:38:28.

celebration of design revolutionaries, Tony Hay word's

:38:29.:38:33.

pick and mix installation has a surrealist theme? It's dark,

:38:34.:38:41.

carnival esq. It's dis-Topiary. How do you think it will be received? I

:38:42.:38:45.

hope it's sort of makes people stand back a little bit. Gardens are

:38:46.:38:51.

supposed to be places where you are calm and go to as a retreat. This is

:38:52.:38:54.

not. One exhibit that is different from the rest is the Climate Change

:38:55.:39:00.

garden. It shows a garden of today and how one might look in the

:39:01.:39:05.

future. The main thing is a lot more rain, but milder. We needed to think

:39:06.:39:10.

about how we store water and how things are planted around the garden

:39:11.:39:14.

to stop it getting hot. There are water butts under the bench. They

:39:15.:39:18.

over fill into this pond, down here into a rain garden. Some of the

:39:19.:39:26.

plants are used, poppies and different piecies of marigolds. We

:39:27.:39:29.

are controlling where the water is going. Preventing flooding. When the

:39:30.:39:34.

water comes at once after a storm it's going somewhere but benefitting

:39:35.:39:39.

the wider environment. 350 exhibits set in a space bigger than the

:39:40.:39:42.

Chelsea Flower Show there is plenty to see and do. RHS Chatsworth is on

:39:43.:39:45.

until Sunday. You can see more coverage of the

:39:46.:39:56.

Chatsworth House Show on Gardenaries World this Friday.

:39:57.:39:59.

Now, would you buy a storage unit full of random items,

:40:00.:40:02.

The contents could make or lose you thousands.

:40:03.:40:05.

Well, that's exactly what the people in Storage Hunters

:40:06.:40:08.

For those of you not familiar with the show, here's a taste.

:40:09.:40:14.

Are you ready to do this? Yes. Cut the lock. Let's do it. Come on, man.

:40:15.:40:24.

I'm liking it. I'm liking it a lot. Mine. Relax. Oh, I will. Have it.

:40:25.:40:39.

Once, twice. Fair warned. Natalie... Yeah. Yes. Look at that. Nice. It's

:40:40.:40:48.

a canyon. I'd be chuffed. I would be. Let's welcome, Sean Kelly. Hi.

:40:49.:41:00.

It's a brilliant, brilliant concept for a television programme which

:41:01.:41:03.

you've sold to lots of countries. You are the creator though, aren't

:41:04.:41:08.

you of this? I came up with the idea for it. Filmed it. Two people get in

:41:09.:41:21.

a fight. I was like - this is Antiques Roadshow like WWF. I took

:41:22.:41:26.

it to a television company and sold it. Were you going to be an

:41:27.:41:32.

auctioneer from being a young lad I'm a stand-up comedian for 19

:41:33.:41:35.

years. As a comic you struggle a lot. My day job I worked as an

:41:36.:41:40.

auctioneer. It was the same skill set. On the stage every night doing

:41:41.:41:45.

comedy. As an auctioneer you are up there. I was looking for TV shows as

:41:46.:41:51.

a comedian. When I saw these two guys at it I was like - why am I not

:41:52.:41:56.

filming my day job. This is amazing. That is how we came up with the

:41:57.:41:59.

idea. What is the best thing you found in one of these lock-ups? The

:42:00.:42:04.

cameras weren't on. In California. The guy win as unit for $125, ?90.

:42:05.:42:10.

He goes, what do think of this painting? It looks pretty nice. I

:42:11.:42:15.

couldn't quite tell what it was. Long story short it goes to auction

:42:16.:42:23.

house. After taxes commissions this guy clears $450,000 and pays cash

:42:24.:42:27.

for his first house. He was 23 years old. Guess how much I got. I got 10%

:42:28.:42:37.

of the $125. ?12. You mentioned your stand-up. You are on tour around the

:42:38.:42:44.

UK until the 22nd July? I'm out doing shows, 50 at the Fringe. I'm

:42:45.:42:48.

doing 30 nights in a row around the UK with two of my friends from

:42:49.:42:53.

Storage Hunters. Green Mile and T Money. We have comedians we met 19

:42:54.:42:58.

years in clubs. I got them on the show with me and we will tour

:42:59.:43:01.

together. Will do you auctions within the show? We will do a proper

:43:02.:43:11.

stand-up comedy. I'm a comic. We ask the audience to bring stuff from

:43:12.:43:17.

home. We talk about the items. We auction it off and give 100% for Hep

:43:18.:43:22.

for Heroes. Isn't that awesome. We do it for our fans and close to our

:43:23.:43:26.

hearts. I served in the Middle East. It seems like the right thing to do.

:43:27.:43:33.

A lovely idea. Is it's time to open up Alex's storage unit. Oh, no. We

:43:34.:43:37.

have been waiting for this. It's been the best part of a decade this

:43:38.:43:41.

thing hasn't been opened for. It's somewhere in Wales. That is all we

:43:42.:43:47.

will say at the moment. I've no idea what's in here. I feel literally

:43:48.:43:52.

sick. We are on the door. I've been doing this for years. For you to

:43:53.:43:58.

open this up in front of Britain - I'm glad our researcher is there. Go

:43:59.:44:12.

on, Glen. I hope it's a canyon! Oh! What is that? That was... It's from

:44:13.:44:18.

when I used to wshg on children's telly. They made a cartoon of us. A

:44:19.:44:23.

cowboy hat. I went to that ranch in Arizona on

:44:24.:44:27.

that programme. That's from there. Take the box out. Take the box out.

:44:28.:44:37.

Oh, no. That is awful. That is lovely. A lovely photo. Oh no. It's

:44:38.:44:47.

a diary. Clutch bag. Cheap clutch bags. Look at that. Anything a bit

:44:48.:44:54.

more interesting in there? Videos. Oh, right. I've been looking for

:44:55.:45:00.

that suitcase for ages. Wellies. Handy bits and pieces in there. How

:45:01.:45:07.

much is this worth? A good solid ?25, ?30. A random sock. If you want

:45:08.:45:14.

to bring me down we could get you a lot of money. What's in the box.

:45:15.:45:23.

What is inside the suitcase. Lord Lucan! Tip it out. Tip out the box.

:45:24.:45:31.

Don't tip out the box. Oh, no! Watch it there. Careful. Here we are. Oh.

:45:32.:45:47.

I've been look looking for that. Cowboy boots. You gave me hassle for

:45:48.:45:55.

loving country music last night. Well done.

:45:56.:45:59.

APPLAUSE Is a sure that was the South of

:46:00.:46:12.

:46:19.:46:21.

:46:29.:46:37.

Doctor Who poster. That is Kylie Minogue's garage. A few bikes on

:46:38.:46:41.

that one, perfectly you, Chris. Is this your garage? You could make a

:46:42.:46:49.

lot of money on that one. Those are car boot items, people pay a lot for

:46:50.:46:52.

those, everything I see, car boot, car boot. How many bikes are in your

:46:53.:46:58.

garage, Chris? I haven't got that many but my mum and dad's is stacked

:46:59.:47:04.

from floor-to-ceiling with my old rubbish. Oh, yes! Look at that. This

:47:05.:47:11.

is Richard's garage in Surrey. It is a picture, look at the bottom left.

:47:12.:47:16.

It is a poster, someone is trying to fool us. You didn't fool the

:47:17.:47:23.

auctioneer. Well done. Here is the most unusual thing, what is that? It

:47:24.:47:34.

is a drum, isn't it? Disturbing. Maggie's husband has a collection of

:47:35.:47:40.

shaving cups. The amount of weird things I have seen, that is a good

:47:41.:47:44.

one. That's finished on a bar, last orders. That is all we have got time
