Welcome to The One Show with Angela Scanlon. | :00:17. | :00:18. | |
We have an all-singin', all-dancin', all-dunkin' | :00:19. | :00:28. | |
Two of the world-famous Harlem Globetrotters have been | :00:29. | :00:37. | |
The deliberate forecast is 100% chance of Globetrotters. Let's see | :00:38. | :00:53. | |
that again! Look at that! APPLAUSE | :00:54. | :00:56. | |
That's 'Flight Time' Lang and 'Slick Willie' Shaw. | :00:57. | :01:00. | |
And they are here! APPLAUSE | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
But two players don't make a team, so lining up for the Globetrotters | :01:06. | :01:09. | |
today, alongside Slick Willie and Flight Time, it's | :01:10. | :01:11. | |
APPLAUSE Here she comes! | :01:12. | :01:30. | |
We've also got Sir Tony 'Cunning Plan' Robinson! | :01:31. | :01:38. | |
And, making his One Show debut, it's comedian Rob 'Tooth Fairy' Beckett! | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
APPLAUSE Lovely! Thank you, boys. We will be | :01:42. | :01:49. | |
talking to you very shortly and might even have a little game | :01:50. | :01:52. | |
outside, if you don't mind. There you are! Your Globetrotter names. | :01:53. | :02:01. | |
Goodness me. What a team! It is a very strange basketball crew, us | :02:02. | :02:06. | |
three, I would say... I think you are helping on the height, because | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
we would be struggling without Miranda. I bet you were always | :02:15. | :02:16. | |
picked as the first woman on a netball team? But I didn't play | :02:17. | :02:27. | |
netball. I was a county player actually... Don't sound so | :02:28. | :02:31. | |
surprised! I'm not particularly competitive, I just love sport. | :02:32. | :02:35. | |
Tennis as well. But I'd love to try this. And you will! This is a bigger | :02:36. | :02:46. | |
ball than I'm used to! Rob, you're quite sporty. Yes, but basketball's | :02:47. | :02:52. | |
never been my game. I play football. I'm not built for it. There is a | :02:53. | :02:56. | |
very small member of the Harlem Globetrotters. Five foot two. Five | :02:57. | :03:08. | |
foot to? Yes, sorry, did I ruin that. Newsround the big surprise! | :03:09. | :03:14. | |
Tony, are you looking forward to meeting these guys? Yes, I want to | :03:15. | :03:19. | |
defend against the tall guy. Bring him down! You will eat your words. I | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
actually want to see that! Before our first film we'd | :03:24. | :03:31. | |
like to reassure you that contrary to what you might have read | :03:32. | :03:33. | |
in the papers about MI5 spying on you through your TVs, | :03:34. | :03:36. | |
nobody will be snooping But if you think something fishy | :03:37. | :03:38. | |
is going on, do e-mail Anyway, The One Show may look neat | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
and tidy, but backstage That is where Dave keeps his props, | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
the spare sofa and his plastic animal collection - | :03:54. | :03:57. | |
because you never know when it Yes, getting rid of clutter | :03:58. | :03:59. | |
and building waste can be a real pain, but that's no | :04:00. | :04:06. | |
excuse for fly-tipping, which is on the rise | :04:07. | :04:07. | |
across the country. Dom has been to find | :04:08. | :04:09. | |
out whether the latest enforcement action | :04:10. | :04:11. | |
will make a difference. Strolling across rolling fields, | :04:12. | :04:24. | |
fresh green grass on the fit, then you come across... A stinking cold | :04:25. | :04:33. | |
setee! It seems more and more of our green and pleasant land is being | :04:34. | :04:37. | |
covered by people's junk, left by fly-tippers. Clearing up this | :04:38. | :04:42. | |
illegally dumped waste is costing a fortune. Last year councils fought | :04:43. | :04:47. | |
out a staggering ?15 million to tackle the mess. Some of that money | :04:48. | :04:56. | |
was spent here. This 1's picturesque corner of Kent is regularly being | :04:57. | :05:01. | |
blighted by tippers who dumped tonnes of commercial and household | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
waste here every week. This has all come out of the house... This local | :05:06. | :05:10. | |
resident, Steve, is worried about the health risks caused by the mess. | :05:11. | :05:15. | |
You also have to think about the vermin attracted, the next thing. | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
The years to say that Kent was a Garden of England. Yes, embarrassed | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
this is on our doorstep, and very angry that a once thriving area has | :05:25. | :05:32. | |
become like this. I don't see the council rushing down here today to | :05:33. | :05:35. | |
clean up some of this mess. To clear this last time was, and told, in the | :05:36. | :05:44. | |
region of 7- ?8 million. You could spend thousands. It'll come back. | :05:45. | :05:50. | |
Fly-tippers often operate late at night, but not here. Earlier this | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
year one local resident managed to capture this fitted on their mobile | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
phone in broad daylight, as a gang of fly-tippers illegally dumped on | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
this very spot. What do you think can be done with this? In my | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
personal opinion fly-tipping is far too kind a phrase. What would you | :06:11. | :06:16. | |
say? Environmental vandals. This has now got to an epidemic. The | :06:17. | :06:21. | |
fly-tipping here is showing no signs of stopping and it is a problem not | :06:22. | :06:27. | |
unique to this area. Sites like this are becoming increasingly | :06:28. | :06:34. | |
problematic across the UK. Like here, in Staffordshire, where this | :06:35. | :06:46. | |
lorry-load of rubbish was dumped last month. There has been a 4% rise | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
from the previous year it in fly-tipping, with the majority | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
involving household waste. What is being done to put a lid on | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
fly-tipping? The local chairman of the local government Association | :07:04. | :07:07. | |
hopes that new rules brought in last year will help. We got a ?400 on the | :07:08. | :07:13. | |
spot fine, no messing about. What we are seeing is a huge rise, | :07:14. | :07:16. | |
particularly in the commercial type of fly-tipping, where people will | :07:17. | :07:20. | |
say, I will clear your house, clear your garden, for a bit of cash in | :07:21. | :07:25. | |
hand, then we find it dumped in our countryside. And the authorities now | :07:26. | :07:32. | |
have another more potent weapon in their mission to wipe out | :07:33. | :07:37. | |
fly-tipping. This CCTV footage shows the owner of a van repeatedly | :07:38. | :07:41. | |
dumping waste in the north of England. In the past the fly-tipper | :07:42. | :07:47. | |
might have got off with a fine or court, but the local council help | :07:48. | :07:51. | |
the police seize his van and crush it. Local authorities now have the | :07:52. | :07:57. | |
powers to do the same two vehicles they suspect are being used in waste | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
crime. Taking people to court was costing the council taxpayer more | :08:03. | :08:05. | |
than we were seeing in fines and actually we believed it was not a | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
real deterrent. We were seeing the same faces, same vehicles, back out | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
there the very same day, so the ability to take away the cause of | :08:14. | :08:17. | |
their trade and stop this scourge we have seen across the country, that's | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
it. What is your message to fly-tippers out there right now? It | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
is over, the end of the road. We will use the full extent of our | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
powers. We will fine you come across your vehicles, so no longer will you | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
be able to blight our environment and our communities with this | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
rubbish. So there you have it. If you are a fly-tipper, beware, | :08:41. | :08:46. | |
because if you don't stop dumping your junk, then it could be your | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
wheels, not your waist, that ends up on the heap. | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
It was freezing out there! So cold that they! You were prepped and | :08:58. | :09:07. | |
ready for action. I'm | :09:08. | :09:13. | |
sure a lot of people were delighted to see that | :09:14. | :09:17. | |
van being crushed - is that something that is | :09:18. | :09:19. | |
going to happen a lot? Yes, Croydon Council have crushed 11 | :09:20. | :09:35. | |
of these last weekend. Often it is dark and late at night, but what | :09:36. | :09:38. | |
they are doing now is finding that the vehicle is guilty. They can find | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
the registration plate and link it to their bank, so if you are guilty | :09:44. | :09:47. | |
you will get crushed. Be careful, because you can see, I wasn't there, | :09:48. | :09:52. | |
but they will get your car. And fly-tipping is right at the top of | :09:53. | :09:55. | |
the list. What other ways are they using to try to catch people? There | :09:56. | :09:59. | |
were huge amount of complaints about it. Buckinghamshire at the moment, | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
for example, are convicting on average one person a week, and | :10:04. | :10:09. | |
Croydon, south London again, they have a great idea. If you are | :10:10. | :10:16. | |
convicted of a environmental crime they have a hall of shame online, so | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
we have a picture of a guy in a tipper truck dumping his rubbish. It | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
is disgusting. Doesn't want to get his shoes dirty! He could have got | :10:24. | :10:31. | |
his foot caught, look at that. That guy got a year in prison for that. | :10:32. | :10:37. | |
We have a picture of a guy in South Derbyshire who, if you look, it is a | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
tumble dryer, effectively tumbling out of his hands... In of shorts as | :10:43. | :10:47. | |
well! Doesn't care! That costing ?1200 so they are clamping down. | :10:48. | :10:55. | |
LAUGHTER Some of the excuses these people | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
gave to justify their actions are quite laughable. We have some of | :11:00. | :11:04. | |
them here actually, from actual fly-tippers. Tony, if you could read | :11:05. | :11:12. | |
that one, that's yours, and Rob, that's yours. These are actual | :11:13. | :11:16. | |
excuses from one people have been caught fly-tipping. Will you start, | :11:17. | :11:17. | |
Miranda? I would love to! "I thought the green waste | :11:18. | :11:43. | |
in the back of the van After I realised it wasn't | :11:44. | :11:46. | |
on fire I couldn't put it back in the van as I had | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
to collect my son from school." "I dropped my phone | :11:51. | :11:53. | |
and there was so much rubbish in the car that I | :11:54. | :11:57. | |
could hardly find it. I cleared the rubbish out | :11:58. | :11:59. | |
so I could find the phone." How can I follow that? I have | :12:00. | :12:07. | |
visions of Baldric in court. LAUGHTER | :12:08. | :12:09. | |
"It was my van, but I had lent it to this other | :12:10. | :12:12. | |
man who is now not answering my calls. | :12:13. | :12:14. | |
Thank you all very much indeed. Miranda, before we came near we were | :12:15. | :12:25. | |
speaking about this... News. -- before we came on a. | :12:26. | :12:28. | |
Miranda, you're joining the cast of Annie. | :12:29. | :12:31. | |
But we've been looking through your back catalogue, | :12:32. | :12:35. | |
APPLAUSE I like that. | :12:36. | :13:00. | |
And were you a big Annie fan? Yes, a huge fine. Every night after school | :13:01. | :13:10. | |
I would put on the elderly, because I am very old, and I would play | :13:11. | :13:15. | |
every part to an imaginary audience of about 200,000 -- I would put on | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
the LP, because I am very old. I never thought it was something I | :13:22. | :13:28. | |
would do. How did it happen? Look at that! It is actually happening! | :13:29. | :13:34. | |
About September, October ten, I rang a friend in musical theatre and said | :13:35. | :13:38. | |
I would really like to do something different. I said I wanted to | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
challenge myself. I ask if there was any chance I could ever do musical | :13:43. | :13:45. | |
theatre, cause I would love to sing and dance, finally, and this person | :13:46. | :13:52. | |
said, well, I think Annie might be coming to the West End so I will put | :13:53. | :13:55. | |
your name forward. I thought this might be a part I couldn't because | :13:56. | :13:59. | |
it is such a big grotesque comedy character that it doesn't matter | :14:00. | :14:02. | |
that have not had vast musical theatre experience before, and they | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
offered me the role! Goodness me. Thinking to that LP, all those | :14:07. | :14:12. | |
songs, every night, you are just living the dream, aren't you? Yes, | :14:13. | :14:18. | |
it is weird. The dream hits you in the face, but the reality... It is | :14:19. | :14:22. | |
quite different, quite hard-core. And Tony, you were in mono film as a | :14:23. | :14:28. | |
young lad. What are your memories of being on stage as a youngster? You | :14:29. | :14:32. | |
didn't really think of it as being in front of the audience. Just with | :14:33. | :14:40. | |
ten or 11 other blokes, messing about, and if anything went wrong | :14:41. | :14:45. | |
you were told to smile, and be happy. It doesn't matter if you walk | :14:46. | :14:50. | |
into the fireplace, dropped a prop, wet yourself, sneeze, just keep | :14:51. | :14:52. | |
smiling so the audience think everything is great! | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
LAUGHTER Did you ever fancier, Rob? At the | :14:57. | :15:02. | |
West End? I have never really been that much, to be fair. The | :15:03. | :15:06. | |
Theatreland, is that what they call it? When I went they did about ten | :15:07. | :15:15. | |
minutes in French and I thought, I never signed up for this! What show | :15:16. | :15:29. | |
did you see? Warhorse! I thought you said Worrels... Yes, I was with you, | :15:30. | :15:36. | |
I was there. It all starts on the 23rd of May? Yes, and it opens | :15:37. | :15:42. | |
around the 6th of June, I think. And you also have a book coming out. | :15:43. | :15:48. | |
Yes, I am having the time of my life at the moment. Musical theatre, and | :15:49. | :15:55. | |
I have written this book. On your table... We have put it on the big | :15:56. | :16:00. | |
screen, don't worry. I wrote it for Comic Relief, 365 ideas, one for | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
every day of the year, the other silly moment to make your day more | :16:06. | :16:10. | |
fun and jolly and caring, promoting kindness, and all the proceeds, my | :16:11. | :16:15. | |
proceeds, go to Comic Relief, so I am a passionate about it. Can you | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
give us an example of one of these fun tasks? Yes, I have been doing it | :16:21. | :16:22. | |
recently. I thought I had better road test it. | :16:23. | :16:38. | |
We opened it and one of them was do a blindfold purchase in any shop. Me | :16:39. | :16:45. | |
and a friend went in, he closed his eyes and he had to buy the first | :16:46. | :16:50. | |
thing he put his hand on. Whatever it was, he had to buy it and then | :16:51. | :16:58. | |
give it to someone in the street. He bought some Coffey granules. Which | :16:59. | :17:02. | |
was weird to go and hand out in the street. But it led to a funny | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
conversation with the guy. He was saying, are you giving me these | :17:09. | :17:15. | |
coffee granules? I said yes. Then he shouted back and said, it's been | :17:16. | :17:21. | |
great, but I don't drink coffee. There is one for every day. You need | :17:22. | :17:27. | |
a friend to take you and do that one. Because going in blind folded | :17:28. | :17:30. | |
and trying to pay would be a nightmare. That is out tomorrow. | :17:31. | :17:44. | |
Right, who wants to see a crazy shot from a Harlem Globetrotter? | :17:45. | :17:54. | |
Another trick shot. Wow! If that landed on the street, would that be | :17:55. | :18:14. | |
fly-tipping? Beautiful. Another trick shot from | :18:15. | :18:22. | |
the Globetrotters in a bit. I wonder if it has anything to do | :18:23. | :18:24. | |
with that fork-lift truck that went Some of you might remember back | :18:25. | :18:27. | |
in 2015 when The one Show reunited Watching that at home | :18:28. | :18:31. | |
was somebody anxious to find out As soon as we got his email | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
Angellica was on the case. 18-year-old Brian is a father of | :18:38. | :18:50. | |
three with three grandchildren. HeLa saw his own father when he was ten | :18:51. | :18:59. | |
years old outside his home in Essex. This is number 50. It has changed | :19:00. | :19:05. | |
absolutely unbelievably. He hasn't been back here since he and his mum | :19:06. | :19:10. | |
moved out of the house in 1946, leaving his dad behind. The truck | :19:11. | :19:16. | |
reversed up here. The furniture just came out to the door and onto the | :19:17. | :19:22. | |
back of the truck. I was told to jump in the truck, and after it | :19:23. | :19:29. | |
went. His father, Walter married Ellen Dyson in 1933. Their only son | :19:30. | :19:37. | |
Brian was born in 1936. But that marriage broke down when Brian was | :19:38. | :19:41. | |
ten years old and he was taken away to start a new life with his mother | :19:42. | :19:47. | |
and grandparents in Southall. His father, Walter was never spoken of | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
again. For 70 years, Brian has been haunted by the question of what | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
happened to his dad. After seeing a successful family reunion on the one | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
Show comity contacted us to see if we could help. What do you remember | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
about your father? Very little. He was tall, slim. I think what | :20:09. | :20:14. | |
happened, in my mind, I think a lot of it has been blanked out as a | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
defence mechanism. It must have been hard as a young boy to have your | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
father in your life one minutes, then not the next? I was effectively | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
abandoned, if you think of it. I think I was a lonely person, even | :20:30. | :20:34. | |
when I was married and having children, I was lonely. I think it | :20:35. | :20:40. | |
might have been a result of the background and experience. Brian has | :20:41. | :20:44. | |
heard a family room his father went on to remarry and may have other | :20:45. | :20:48. | |
children he would like to trace. Is this really important to you? Yes. I | :20:49. | :20:54. | |
don't know how much longer I have got to live. I would like to contact | :20:55. | :20:59. | |
what is the other half of my family, before I die. How do you trace | :21:00. | :21:04. | |
information about somebody who was last seen 70 years ago. Our expert | :21:05. | :21:12. | |
has been scouring records to build a picture of Brian's father did after | :21:13. | :21:17. | |
separating from his mother. These records are incredible they confirm | :21:18. | :21:23. | |
his father Walter was working at the shoe factory in East Tilbury in | :21:24. | :21:29. | |
1947. That means he stayed in the area after his marriage broke down | :21:30. | :21:35. | |
in 1946. These records don't tell us what happened to falter after 1947. | :21:36. | :21:40. | |
The next thing I had to do was search the death and probate | :21:41. | :21:47. | |
indexes. I found an entry for Walter which confirmed he died in 1965. He | :21:48. | :21:55. | |
hadn't left a will, but the index left another name, his widow. When | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
Victoria died in 2010, she did leave a will. It names two daughters, | :22:04. | :22:10. | |
Glenda and Alexander. Could they be Brian's half Sisters? When Cat wrote | :22:11. | :22:16. | |
to them, they confirmed Walter was their father. They are keen to meet | :22:17. | :22:20. | |
their big brother and they have a treasure trove of photographs of the | :22:21. | :22:26. | |
dad they adored. It is time for me to tell Brian the news. So, we have | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
managed to find out some information for you. Well. The first thing we | :22:32. | :22:39. | |
found out is your father sadly passed away in 1965. He was 61 years | :22:40. | :22:48. | |
of age. Really? Wow. Cat managed to get hold of a picture of your | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
father, would you like to see it? Yes, please. Does he look like me, | :22:57. | :23:04. | |
do you think? When I saw it, that is what I thought. It is the only | :23:05. | :23:08. | |
picture I have seen of my father. It is lovely. More good news for Brian. | :23:09. | :23:14. | |
Find out later when Brian meets his Sisters for the first time. | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
So much for Brian to take in. Rob, you are living with your in-laws, it | :23:22. | :23:34. | |
must be hard to take in. It is difficult to take in because my | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
mother-in-law is watching. It has been a blessing, I would prefer to | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
be at home! You are marrying into this new family, new material fur, | :23:48. | :23:52. | |
but do you avoid it like the plague? I talk about it a lot, they are | :23:53. | :23:59. | |
lovely. Living in the house, is always different. They are different | :24:00. | :24:03. | |
to my family, middle-class, so polite. How was your day? My house | :24:04. | :24:09. | |
is just screaming and shouting. I shared a room with my brother until | :24:10. | :24:15. | |
21. I would be in bed and he would come in early in the morning and | :24:16. | :24:21. | |
just play Fifa. That would be fine. I have made my father-in-law jump | :24:22. | :24:25. | |
out of his skin 100 times. I have been there a month. They said I was | :24:26. | :24:34. | |
too quiet, and now I have gone the other way. Let's have a little look | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
at you, talking about your wife. Very lucky to be married. I am an | :24:40. | :24:46. | |
odd looking fella. I am an acquired taste. I am like Marmite in an | :24:47. | :24:52. | |
oyster. I don't know who made me, he was taking the mix. Must have been | :24:53. | :24:59. | |
for 40 5pm on Friday. One more human while we are here, let's get another | :25:00. | :25:07. | |
one left over. Teeth for 11 people. There you were on Michael McIntire's | :25:08. | :25:13. | |
show. You have been on a successful tour. You lengthened the tour? It | :25:14. | :25:20. | |
finishes on the 9th of April. It has gone on since 2015. It never stops. | :25:21. | :25:26. | |
I have had a kid since I started the tour. I chose that image, it does | :25:27. | :25:32. | |
the job. When I don't do anything, I am the geezer with the teeth. You | :25:33. | :25:40. | |
were reading reviews and they always mentioned your smiles? Not a | :25:41. | :25:46. | |
reviews, people shouting it at me. Teeth! As if I didn't know. They go, | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
you are the bloke with all the teeth, like I have nicked them from | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
everyone else. I just had to respond. If I get in there first, | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
then they can't. We have a picture of you when you were young and you | :26:04. | :26:12. | |
were covering your teeth up. At that point, my nickname was Tombstone but | :26:13. | :26:16. | |
I have had these front teeth since I was six and they are too big for me | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
now. When am I going to grow into them, when are they going to fit? Oh | :26:23. | :26:30. | |
dear. You can see them, they are too much, aren't they. We love your | :26:31. | :26:37. | |
teeth. When I laugh, they try and escape out of my head. Has your | :26:38. | :26:43. | |
daughter got NEETs yet? She is teething and all I can say is sorry. | :26:44. | :26:50. | |
She can demolish a corn on the cob in seconds. They have done well for | :26:51. | :26:58. | |
you. You met Prince Charles? Yes, you know everybody does Prince | :26:59. | :27:02. | |
Charles voice and I thought I will do an exaggerated version. He is so, | :27:03. | :27:12. | |
so posh. Obviously, he is the future king. You know when they are so | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
posh, they just mumble in posh. We didn't understand each other. What | :27:19. | :27:28. | |
did you say to him? He said, do you live in South East London? And I | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
said yes, come around for a cup of tea if you want. | :27:35. | :27:36. | |
Well, we wanted to see if any of your wife's poshness | :27:37. | :27:39. | |
We will work out how posh you are. We are calling it Top of the Posh. | :27:40. | :27:58. | |
First Question, what do you call the last meal of the day? | :27:59. | :28:02. | |
Depends how many drinks I have had. I do say supper, I think. When do | :28:03. | :28:14. | |
you have supper? Supper, you have your dinner at seven o'clock, eight | :28:15. | :28:18. | |
o'clock, supper is like a ten o'clock biscuit. You are in your | :28:19. | :28:29. | |
pyjamas. I don't define my meals. Tony, what do you call it? When I | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
was a kid, it was my tea. Now it is my dinner. Certainly. What do you | :28:37. | :28:48. | |
call the smallest room in the house? The front room. The cupboard. Where | :28:49. | :29:00. | |
did you first go on holiday? Butlins. Down the shops. Devon. | :29:01. | :29:15. | |
Tenerife. Tenerife. I was nine. I couldn't believe how hot it was. I | :29:16. | :29:23. | |
was like, we are in another country. There was painting, Swanage and | :29:24. | :29:34. | |
Torquay on the south coast. Rob is on tour in the UK with Mouth Of The | :29:35. | :29:38. | |
South only 15 shows left. We interview a lot of experts | :29:39. | :29:41. | |
for this show but I don't think any of them have been put on the spot | :29:42. | :29:45. | |
by one of our presenters quite Yes, she put her reputation as one | :29:46. | :29:48. | |
of our finest forensic Let's see if it's | :29:49. | :29:52. | |
a decision she'll regret. When it comes to crime scene | :29:53. | :30:04. | |
investigations, cases can hinge on tiny microscopic details like hares, | :30:05. | :30:09. | |
saliva or blood. But what if the only evidence of a crime is mud? | :30:10. | :30:15. | |
Surprisingly, evidence from mud has been used to link dozens of | :30:16. | :30:19. | |
murderers to the scenes of their crimes. How precise can it be? I | :30:20. | :30:26. | |
have been for a welcome some in Scotland's 30,000 square miles and I | :30:27. | :30:30. | |
am setting forensic scientists challenge. Can they put me in a | :30:31. | :30:36. | |
specific place, using only the mud on my boots? The exact location is | :30:37. | :30:38. | |
hidden in this and below. I am going to Professor Lorna Dawson | :30:39. | :30:54. | |
and her team, the UK's top forensic scientists. The clues within the | :30:55. | :30:58. | |
soil can tell us where that person has stood. We are looking for | :30:59. | :31:04. | |
fragmentation, hairs and fibrous, to compare that with the crime scene. | :31:05. | :31:09. | |
How close can Lorna get to pinpointing where I have been | :31:10. | :31:13. | |
walking? Firstly, the physical inspection can reveal quite a lot. | :31:14. | :31:17. | |
Because there is a very small proportion of sand in the sample it | :31:18. | :31:21. | |
tells us it has not come from a beach environment, a riverbed type | :31:22. | :31:26. | |
environment, it does not have fibrous peat in it so we know you | :31:27. | :31:33. | |
have not likely what on a peat bog. Looking at the soil, Lorna's expert | :31:34. | :31:40. | |
eye rolls out parts of Scotland I definitely haven't been, but the | :31:41. | :31:43. | |
next step is to underline the geology of the area I was walking | :31:44. | :31:47. | |
in, and for that Professor Steve Hillier uses expert crystallography. | :31:48. | :31:54. | |
It to have a strong relationship to the rock type underneath, the | :31:55. | :31:57. | |
so-called parent material. Scotland sits on top of dozens of slightly | :31:58. | :32:04. | |
different rock types, clearly marked on geological maps. To clarify the | :32:05. | :32:09. | |
exact mineral make up of my mind, he can work out what kind of rock lies | :32:10. | :32:14. | |
underneath. Underneath we have the zeolite and a mineral called a | :32:15. | :32:17. | |
pyroxene, some I thought straightaway is this must come from | :32:18. | :32:21. | |
some sort of igneous rock. Knowing it sat on top of igneous or volcanic | :32:22. | :32:27. | |
rock means he can start to narrow down likely locations. It matches | :32:28. | :32:30. | |
closely with the kind of igneous rocks you find around Edinburgh and | :32:31. | :32:36. | |
Stirling. Also hidden in the soil is biological evidence for the small to | :32:37. | :32:40. | |
be seen by the naked eye. This specialist is using a powerful | :32:41. | :32:43. | |
microscope to look at the soil in minute detail. Some cereal pollen, | :32:44. | :32:49. | |
suggesting a medal or a field probably surrounded by an area where | :32:50. | :32:53. | |
cereals would be cultivated. What else? Spores produced by fungi that | :32:54. | :32:58. | |
grows on the don of animals. Finally Lorna cross-references my sample to | :32:59. | :33:05. | |
a database of thousands of soils across Scotland. She is now ready to | :33:06. | :33:09. | |
reveal her results, starting by eliminating wishy things I haven't | :33:10. | :33:20. | |
been. Lorna, tell me about your results. You didn't go there, you | :33:21. | :33:23. | |
did not go to people in the areas, you were not on an arable farm. We | :33:24. | :33:28. | |
are excluding all the areas in Scotland with conifers growing. We | :33:29. | :33:32. | |
then look at the carbon content of the soil. We add in all of those | :33:33. | :33:37. | |
different layers... It doesn't leave much, does it? We are going to be | :33:38. | :33:42. | |
scattered location of possible -- scattered collection of possible | :33:43. | :33:45. | |
locations having ruled out most of Scotland. Next she has defended what | :33:46. | :33:51. | |
matches the Rock profile from Steve's crystallography. One of the | :33:52. | :33:56. | |
key questions is the soil, the geology, the underlying bedrock. One | :33:57. | :34:05. | |
of the areas we thought most closely compared was one of these... In here | :34:06. | :34:09. | |
is the actual answer. I'm quite nervous! So here there's... Just as | :34:10. | :34:22. | |
you said, the Dell mini estate, you are bang on! | :34:23. | :34:34. | |
Dalmeny Estate. She pinpointed exactly where I was. | :34:35. | :34:42. | |
STUDIO: I feel like we need to applaud science. | :34:43. | :34:48. | |
APPLAUSE Tony, the mud on your boots tells us | :34:49. | :34:55. | |
where you have been. Yes. From west to east, for your new series, | :34:56. | :35:06. | |
Coast-to-coast. Yes, I went our way across, not in one go, of course. | :35:07. | :35:12. | |
When you started you met an acquaintance? Yes, was the start of | :35:13. | :35:18. | |
an eight-week shoot, and the very first person I interviewed was by | :35:19. | :35:23. | |
coincidence Rowan Atkinson's physics teacher! You start the walk there in | :35:24. | :35:32. | |
Saint bees and you're supposed to put a pebble in your pocket then | :35:33. | :35:38. | |
walked all the way across, and the block their used to teach physics. | :35:39. | :35:41. | |
And that didn't even make it into the episode? -- the bloke there is | :35:42. | :35:52. | |
to teach. And one of the reasons I wanted to do the show was not just | :35:53. | :35:56. | |
the walking or the history, which I have done before, but it was really | :35:57. | :35:59. | |
engaging with the people living on that route. It is a tough life up | :36:00. | :36:04. | |
there, and for instance when fit and mouth disease Kemen people had to | :36:05. | :36:07. | |
develop new businesses, and I was fascinated by the resilience of | :36:08. | :36:12. | |
these people. Some of these people have started a new brewery and they | :36:13. | :36:18. | |
asked me to help. Let's have a look at you there. I did offer to help | :36:19. | :36:27. | |
out today but lugging 25 kilos of barley was not what I expected. | :36:28. | :36:33. | |
Please keep hold of the hand rail! I am not intending to let go! This | :36:34. | :36:38. | |
Bali was developed specifically for brewing by Cambridge University in | :36:39. | :36:47. | |
the 60s -- this pot-mac. Hello, Mark. You could have taken it from | :36:48. | :36:53. | |
the bottom of the steps, you know! STUDIO: Lovely! Strong as an ox! | :36:54. | :37:02. | |
Miranda at me if I feel fit and in shape, and my legs feel good, but | :37:03. | :37:06. | |
the top half of my body, so rubbish! I was really dying out there. Can I | :37:07. | :37:18. | |
get a lift? -- and they get a lift? I don't think they can afford one | :37:19. | :37:22. | |
yet. As a Londoner, what did you make of it all? Have you spent much | :37:23. | :37:28. | |
time they are? As a Londoner I have always perceived England as it went | :37:29. | :37:33. | |
down, the A1, the M1, so I know how it fits together, but from side to | :37:34. | :37:37. | |
side, I have never really had an impression of what is going on. I | :37:38. | :37:43. | |
didn't really know about the lakes, the staggeringly beautiful deals, | :37:44. | :37:49. | |
the North Moore, the sea, and just... I didn't know, so it was a | :37:50. | :37:55. | |
real eye-opener. And the wildlife encounters as well? Oh, yes. When | :37:56. | :38:03. | |
you are on the telly and say you're searching for an animal, you never | :38:04. | :38:09. | |
find the flipping thing, and I saw these, I really saw these red | :38:10. | :38:12. | |
squirrels! And it is so moving because they are such beautiful | :38:13. | :38:16. | |
animals, so delicate. That word we were using earlier, the | :38:17. | :38:27. | |
... And I was up so early, but they were so beautiful. Rob, we would you | :38:28. | :38:37. | |
go on in 200 mile route walk? I can't do the same one, I would get | :38:38. | :38:42. | |
Segway. I just go in cars from gigs. It is a shame, because you drive | :38:43. | :38:49. | |
around for shows, and you just see it driving past, but if you go off | :38:50. | :38:52. | |
the beaten track a little there is such an amazingly beautiful stuff to | :38:53. | :38:56. | |
see. What about you, Miranda? On your walking hit list? Yes, walking. | :38:57. | :39:05. | |
I love walking. The South Downs Way. It is beautiful. I like looking over | :39:06. | :39:13. | |
the coast. Yes, and, Tony, before coming on a, we were seeing your | :39:14. | :39:23. | |
Blackadder, it has all these reruns? Yes, the Yesterday Channel will show | :39:24. | :39:27. | |
all the old Blackadders, including my documentaries about all the | :39:28. | :39:33. | |
different periods, you know, and my Time Team Biggs as well. A week of | :39:34. | :39:45. | |
Baldric! It's a whole fortnight. Set the video! | :39:46. | :39:50. | |
LAUGHTER That's it. We have only just met, | :39:51. | :39:57. | |
but, you know, you can see Tony begin his 200 mile journey on | :39:58. | :40:02. | |
Channel five at eight o'clock, Friday the 17th. People have been | :40:03. | :40:06. | |
e-mailing in. We have had quite a lot of response. You know what we | :40:07. | :40:09. | |
said at the beginning about MI5 spying on your telly? A lot of | :40:10. | :40:16. | |
e-mails in saying there is weird stuff going in. Really? Wow. Time | :40:17. | :40:23. | |
for another Globetrotter trick shot... The forklift, here we go. | :40:24. | :40:44. | |
APPLAUSE That is incredible! I wanted to see | :40:45. | :40:55. | |
a video of the forklift truck driver walking up after! | :40:56. | :40:55. | |
LAUGHTER Let's return now to Angellica | :40:56. | :40:58. | |
and Brian as he finds out more Just a warning, you may | :40:59. | :41:02. | |
want a hanky ready. Brian last saw his father Walter | :41:03. | :41:10. | |
when he was ten following the end of his parents' marriage. For 17 years | :41:11. | :41:14. | |
he has been yearning to know who his dad was and what happened to him. | :41:15. | :41:20. | |
Losing contact so suddenly and at such a Young age made it difficult | :41:21. | :41:25. | |
for Brian to remember much about his father. Their expert Kat Whiteway | :41:26. | :41:34. | |
has found out his father remarried and had two daughters, his younger | :41:35. | :41:38. | |
half-sisters. Very close to my dad, yes. He was my friend, my father, he | :41:39. | :41:43. | |
was lovely. I missed him a great deal when he passed away. We have | :41:44. | :41:47. | |
shown Brian a photograph of his father for the first time, and now | :41:48. | :41:51. | |
it is time to tell him the rest of our news. You are right. He did go | :41:52. | :41:57. | |
on to remarry, your dad, and he had two daughters. Two daughters? This | :41:58. | :42:04. | |
is your dad with them on holiday, Glenda and Alexandra. And they are | :42:05. | :42:17. | |
keen to meet you. Wow. How do you feel about it? I would love to meet | :42:18. | :42:21. | |
them. Brian has been an only child all of his life and having had time | :42:22. | :42:25. | |
to take on the news about his new sisters, he now has the opportunity | :42:26. | :42:31. | |
to meet them. Would you be happy to meet them today? Yes. You would? | :42:32. | :42:34. | |
Very much so. Hello, bruv, how are you doing? I'm | :42:35. | :43:02. | |
Alexandra. I'm sorry... I'm sorry. There couldn't be a better reaction. | :43:03. | :43:11. | |
Two sisters, two beautiful sisters. I have so much to ask you. For the | :43:12. | :43:20. | |
first time Walter's children are altogether. This is more emotional | :43:21. | :43:23. | |
than I have been all my life, and I really mean that. To help him learn | :43:24. | :43:33. | |
more about the dad he lost 70 years ago -- 17 years ago, they have | :43:34. | :43:36. | |
prepared an album of photographs. From his work as an engineer in the | :43:37. | :43:40. | |
50s and 60s, the cherished family holidays. My mother used to take me | :43:41. | :43:54. | |
to Butlins as well. We loved it. There are some surprises in store | :43:55. | :43:57. | |
for Brian about his father's extraordinary life. Bletchley? Was | :43:58. | :44:05. | |
he working there? He really was? So he was amongst the codebreakers? | :44:06. | :44:09. | |
That is amazing. How are you feeling? Very choked up. She has | :44:10. | :44:18. | |
done a fantastic job. Know they are together at last, Brian, Glenda and | :44:19. | :44:21. | |
Alex can start a new journey. I want to make sure we act like a family, | :44:22. | :44:23. | |
because that's what we are. The dad. Brian, and then extended family, is | :44:24. | :44:39. | |
now here on The One Show. Not just two half-sisters, but who else did | :44:40. | :44:44. | |
you go on to meet? This is Louise, my knees, new niece, who called me | :44:45. | :44:50. | |
uncle Brian for the first time this week. This is my partner knowledge, | :44:51. | :44:58. | |
and this is Alex. It must be incredibly difficult for you to put | :44:59. | :45:01. | |
into words what it means to have this new family that you never | :45:02. | :45:05. | |
really knew existed. It has still not really soaked in. It has been 70 | :45:06. | :45:12. | |
years since I have had a family of sisters or brothers and, you know, | :45:13. | :45:18. | |
to suddenly get two sisters, when you are 80 years old, it is quite a | :45:19. | :45:24. | |
big move. Alex, how are you keeping in contact? How far away the lift | :45:25. | :45:29. | |
from each other? About 50 miles, but social media is wonderful. Not just | :45:30. | :45:33. | |
telephones any more, it is messenger and Facebook. It is wonderful, | :45:34. | :45:39. | |
wonderful. Louise, what was your kind of impression, when you heard | :45:40. | :45:42. | |
you had this uncle you didn't know existed? Another uncle to buy any | :45:43. | :45:48. | |
Christmas presents! LAUGHTER | :45:49. | :45:52. | |
What is on the list? A big long list this year. It will make up for a lot | :45:53. | :45:56. | |
of years obviously. And just to see your partner here, watching that | :45:57. | :46:03. | |
film... Very emotional, and it has changed him. He is more confident | :46:04. | :46:08. | |
and he loves it, having a family. It took a long time to find them, but | :46:09. | :46:12. | |
we did. And do you feel settled with them yourself now? Oh, yes. The | :46:13. | :46:18. | |
underlying situation has not changed between ourselves but we have seen a | :46:19. | :46:22. | |
lot of each other already and we have more arrangements to meet | :46:23. | :46:29. | |
subsequently, you know. Oh, yes. He is not giving up. And that | :46:30. | :46:34. | |
photograph, very precious. Yes, the first time I had ever seen a picture | :46:35. | :46:37. | |
of my father and decided he was working at Bletchley Park in the | :46:38. | :46:42. | |
war, Hope Road can you be? For sure. Brian, thank you so much for letting | :46:43. | :46:48. | |
us share your story -- how proud can you be? It really is lovely. Thanks, | :46:49. | :46:51. | |
Matt. Thank you very much. Please do e-mail us if you, | :46:52. | :46:57. | |
like Brian, are hoping to find Aranda, we talked about your book | :46:58. | :47:17. | |
and you will be a judge on let's dance for comic relief. Really. I | :47:18. | :47:28. | |
had almost forgotten about that. The one Show team will be in there. What | :47:29. | :47:35. | |
are you looking for? Now I am a singer and dancer I can lord it over | :47:36. | :47:40. | |
them and say, now I am a West End star. You are taking part as well? I | :47:41. | :47:51. | |
will be presenting it. We will have fun together, we will hold hands. | :47:52. | :47:58. | |
That will be nice. It is the idea, just to go back to the old theatre, | :47:59. | :48:04. | |
but comedians out there, create a bit of chaos. It is all comics. | :48:05. | :48:11. | |
Can't wait. You are used to stand up, do you get nervous? I have the | :48:12. | :48:18. | |
bits of presenting before, but I will say whatever words are written | :48:19. | :48:21. | |
down and smile. He will have my sweaty hand in his come he will be | :48:22. | :48:31. | |
fine. You were with Richard when he came up with this concept? Yes, at | :48:32. | :48:36. | |
the very beginning, we were watching Band-Aid and it was a sunny day and | :48:37. | :48:40. | |
we watched it on a black-and-white television. We were so blown away by | :48:41. | :48:47. | |
Band-Aid and the fact they had managed to mobilise all of these | :48:48. | :48:50. | |
musicians to get behind developing world issues also Richard went very | :48:51. | :48:56. | |
quiet about halfway through the afternoon. We knew he had been | :48:57. | :49:00. | |
impressed and a few weeks after Bladder Acca -- Blackadder had | :49:01. | :49:08. | |
finished, he went out to Africa and spoke to the NGOs with this idea of | :49:09. | :49:14. | |
mobilising the comedy community. Out of that, Comic Relief was born. | :49:15. | :49:20. | |
Amazing charity it is. Rob, we have been getting e-mails to say we | :49:21. | :49:24. | |
shouldn't get any more jokes about your teeth. | :49:25. | :49:35. | |
Mike's in Norfolk, on the trail of a mysterious creature | :49:36. | :49:41. | |
Britain has a history of eccentric animal lovers playing host to the | :49:42. | :50:03. | |
exotic. Alexis has gone up to the Tiger and thinks it is great fun to | :50:04. | :50:06. | |
play with. Whether it is a carriage pulled by | :50:07. | :50:12. | |
zebras or an ostrich. But no breed has proved as important as the | :50:13. | :50:17. | |
Chinese water dears. They were brought over in 1894 and by early | :50:18. | :50:22. | |
conservationists, the Duke of Bedford. A number were released | :50:23. | :50:26. | |
while others were introduced to the countryside with the results that | :50:27. | :50:32. | |
our population has existed in the wild since 1945. Dubbed the vampire | :50:33. | :50:37. | |
dear, the males have primitive tusks. They are loosely rooted in | :50:38. | :50:42. | |
their socket, meaning they can be moved forward in combat and with the | :50:43. | :50:46. | |
elongated necks, big ears, their appearance is very distinctive. This | :50:47. | :50:52. | |
unusual animal is listed as vulnerable. And in the UK, numbers | :50:53. | :50:59. | |
continue to rise. It is estimated we have 10% of the entire global | :51:00. | :51:03. | |
population. A figure that is thought to be critical to the conservation | :51:04. | :51:09. | |
of this species. Here in Norfolk, Tim has been monitoring the local | :51:10. | :51:14. | |
population for the last 18 years. They beautiful with those teddy bear | :51:15. | :51:20. | |
faces and the males with the big tusks, the canine teeth they use for | :51:21. | :51:25. | |
fighting, to protect their territory. They are very primitive | :51:26. | :51:29. | |
and special. Some people might confuse them with another small | :51:30. | :51:37. | |
introduced species, the muntjac. They are spreading uncontrollably | :51:38. | :51:43. | |
across the UK but it is not the same with this one? They are starting to | :51:44. | :51:51. | |
spread slowly, they are tough to see and they are shy. They tend to come | :51:52. | :51:56. | |
out into the open at dusk. We have found what we think is the best | :51:57. | :51:59. | |
possible place to try and spot the deer. We will put a couple of hiding | :52:00. | :52:06. | |
places in the other side of the ditch. It could be a long wait, in | :52:07. | :52:14. | |
this case, all night. Nature plays by its own rules and we get lucky | :52:15. | :52:18. | |
with an unexpected sighting. It seems animals have not read the | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
manual. It is mid-afternoon and there is a Chinese water deer in | :52:24. | :52:28. | |
broad daylight. I am downwind of it so it cannot smell me and only | :52:29. | :52:34. | |
moving when it has got its head down eating. Its head is up. I can | :52:35. | :52:40. | |
confirm it is a female, no tusks. They usually give birth in May or | :52:41. | :52:45. | |
early June. And she looks heavily pregnant. Although she soon | :52:46. | :52:51. | |
disappears into the long grass, it is encouraging to know they are out | :52:52. | :52:55. | |
there. But to get the closest views, I will have two head to my hide. My | :52:56. | :53:01. | |
patience was rewarded as we headed towards dusk. Just in front of us | :53:02. | :53:13. | |
now. Surprisingly large hind legs. Quite a long neck and a petite head | :53:14. | :53:19. | |
with those big ears and those black eyes and nose, they look like three | :53:20. | :53:25. | |
black buttons. She is coming closer. She has got some food in her mouth, | :53:26. | :53:32. | |
that is lovely. Looks like it is moulting, losing its winter coat. | :53:33. | :53:37. | |
Patches of further missing. She looks pregnant as well. That Bach is | :53:38. | :53:51. | |
so distinctive. Wow! -- bark. She is looking right at us. She is not | :53:52. | :53:56. | |
frightened, otherwise she would probably run. This animal prefers | :53:57. | :54:03. | |
its own company. After 15 hours, but was to be might only sighting of | :54:04. | :54:08. | |
this elusive deer. But what a sighting, my closest ever. I like | :54:09. | :54:15. | |
his fangs. We're joined now by the amazing | :54:16. | :54:16. | |
Slick Willie Shaw and Flight Time We've seen them at work already | :54:17. | :54:19. | |
and this is their greatest hit! That is real. What are the criteria, | :54:20. | :55:01. | |
how do we get selected? How did you get selected? We have scouts that go | :55:02. | :55:05. | |
around through the United States and the world. We have training camps | :55:06. | :55:10. | |
and then we have one big camp in Atlanta, Georgia during the course | :55:11. | :55:14. | |
of the year and that is when we select our new players. I am coming | :55:15. | :55:21. | |
along. I am sure we will have a spot for you. We come as a pair. Might | :55:22. | :55:31. | |
have to split you up. Going over 90 years, what can people expect? You | :55:32. | :55:37. | |
will see some some of the greatest athletes in the world, slam dunk, we | :55:38. | :55:44. | |
are known for our basketball wizardry. But some family, wholesome | :55:45. | :55:51. | |
fun. For all 84, he don't even have to be a basketball fan. You have | :55:52. | :55:56. | |
spun balls on many fingers, but one guy made an impression on you? Yes, | :55:57. | :56:02. | |
I had a chance to years ago to go to the Vatican and I spun the ball on | :56:03. | :56:10. | |
the Pope's finger. I can text him and any time you want him on the | :56:11. | :56:14. | |
show, I can hook you up. What on earth were you doing? It was the | :56:15. | :56:21. | |
most nerve-racking thing, I have ever done. I thought, I cannot hit | :56:22. | :56:24. | |
the Pope in the head because it will go viral. Have you got a favourite | :56:25. | :56:35. | |
trick? My fans call meet the spin doctor. He is still going. | :56:36. | :56:40. | |
The Globetrotters are on tour in the UK next month, | :56:41. | :56:43. | |
OK, you two have been in competition all day, | :56:44. | :56:51. | |
so let's settle this the old fashioned way. | :56:52. | :56:56. | |
There is a birthday boy amongst us. Would you like to choose the team | :56:57. | :57:00. | |

you're team captains, you get to choose your team-mates, | :57:04. | :57:05. | |
who do you like the look of? I like the look of you there. Can I- | :57:06. | :57:21. | |
five youth? Of course you can. We are just going to play until the end | :57:22. | :57:23. | |
of the programme. Miranda's in Annie from 23rd May | :57:24. | :57:27. | |

a masterclass. Double up. Is this a good spin? Look at that! Nice! | :57:55. | :58:00. | |
You can see Rob on tour until April the 9th and he and Miranda will be | :58:01. | :58:03. | |
