Hello and welcome to the One Show, with Alex Jones. And Matt Baker.

:00:23.:00:29.

Tonight's guest is an Irish stand- up, who is sitting on the funny

:00:29.:00:33.

side of the periodic table. With comedy that is out of this world,

:00:33.:00:38.

it is Dara O'Briain. How are you? Very well. Labouring under a bit of

:00:38.:00:45.

a cold, as you do (coughs) that was genuinely. On tour, every night you

:00:45.:00:48.

reaggravate, there is nothing the audience want to hear more than

:00:48.:00:55.

that. Your throat, stuffed. Acenacia. I can't do a science show

:00:55.:01:00.

and be in favour of that, that doesn't work! I need to see

:01:00.:01:05.

evidence for that. The weird thing is, it is a joke, I went into a

:01:05.:01:08.

chemist and said do you have anything, really proper stuff, and

:01:08.:01:14.

the woman walked out, and went, I know just the thing, the

:01:14.:01:16.

pharmaceutical woman, and said these are very good, because not

:01:16.:01:22.

only have you suck them, but there is honey, and I stood there, and

:01:22.:01:29.

said, I'm sorry pet, are you explaining Lockets to me. I'm a 40-

:01:29.:01:33.

year-old man, they have been on the market for some time now. We have

:01:33.:01:38.

mastered that. Other cough sweets of course? Of course, of course.

:01:38.:01:44.

You are looking good to us. Lots of people say you look uncannily like

:01:44.:01:48.

this character, from Despicable Me? I hear that a lot, I love it. In

:01:48.:01:54.

the list of things that I look like, the Megabus man, a giant sausage,

:01:54.:01:57.

that is one of the things. I say it every night, it gets a huge round

:01:58.:02:04.

of applause every night. People say, "oh you do", I say don't clap, that

:02:04.:02:09.

clap the jokes I write. Don't clap the fact that I accidentally look

:02:09.:02:16.

like an animated villain. You have a neck. And chins. Over 40,000

:02:16.:02:23.

people on Twitter say. Every time it is on the tele, people say it.

:02:23.:02:26.

Tomorrow morning, six very brave tiejers will be setting off from

:02:26.:02:32.

Llandudno at -- teenager, will be setting off from Llandudno as the

:02:32.:02:35.

teenage Rickshaw Challenge gets under way. I am heading off to

:02:35.:02:38.

North Wales after the show. They are on board the rickshaw now,

:02:38.:02:42.

Ciaran is there, and Darren has a microphone. How are things up there,

:02:42.:02:49.

you have less than 12 hours to go, what is the feeling within Team

:02:49.:02:52.

Rickshaw? Everyone has different feelings at this minute. I'm a

:02:52.:02:55.

little bit apprehensive, but I'm really looking forward to it. It

:02:55.:03:01.

should be good. We are all raring to go. Have you had your last meal,

:03:01.:03:06.

and if so, what did you have? sandwiches on the train, some cake

:03:06.:03:13.

when I got here, I'm looking forward to my meal tonight, loads

:03:13.:03:17.

of carbohydrate. Cake, very athletic. We will hear more from

:03:17.:03:20.

Team Rickshaw later on. We will be talking to Dara about his new

:03:21.:03:24.

science series as well. In the moon time, to get us into the thinking

:03:24.:03:28.

mode, Dara has a challenge for you at home. I do, you wanted something

:03:28.:03:34.

that was very simple, straight forward, a puzzle, four oranges, it

:03:34.:03:38.

is very easy to. Do you get four oranges or any kind of apples,

:03:38.:03:43.

other fruit available. You put them out, a simple puzzlek how can you

:03:43.:03:48.

arrange them so they are all equi- distant, each orange is the same

:03:48.:03:51.

distance from every other orange. Any way you want, how do you move

:03:51.:03:56.

them, is it that, that, that. See what you can do.

:03:56.:04:03.

Take a photo of your efforts and Take a photo of your efforts and

:04:03.:04:05.

Dara will see who got it right. This summer, sporting fever swept

:04:05.:04:10.

the nation, as the best of Olympic athletes swept to victory.

:04:10.:04:14.

We all have our own memories of the games, some wanted a more permanent

:04:14.:04:19.

reminder, the fact that people could buy a piece of the Olympic

:04:19.:04:25.

legacy, hasn't quit worked out for everyone. The Olympics and

:04:25.:04:31.

Paralympics, events that made Britain proud. It is no surprise

:04:31.:04:37.

many of us, including me, wanted a souvenir to remember it by. I

:04:37.:04:45.

reported back in July on a company called ReMains of the Day. Selling

:04:45.:04:48.

off momentos from the Olympic village. The place was filling up

:04:48.:04:53.

with bits and pieces, big and small, from one of the largest events

:04:53.:05:01.

London had ever hosted. Many from the parts of the apartments the

:05:01.:05:06.

athletes stayed in. I came away with a loo brush, I was lucky, we

:05:06.:05:11.

have been in touch with many who are still waiting. For Kirsty and

:05:11.:05:18.

her family, the Olympics was a once in a lifetime event. It was

:05:18.:05:22.

fantastic, we started off with the Olympic Torch coming through our

:05:22.:05:26.

town. The kids were able to see that. We saw the open-water

:05:27.:05:32.

swimming. What attracted you to Remains of the Games? We would have

:05:32.:05:35.

something physical in the house that had been part of the Olympics,

:05:35.:05:41.

things we could keep forever. did you order? Three bean bags, two

:05:41.:05:50.

cushions, a mirror and a folding chair. I was so excited, because my

:05:50.:05:57.

stuff could be Usain Bolt sitting on it. How much did you spend?

:05:57.:06:02.

If they don't turn up, I will be so disappointed. The website said the

:06:02.:06:05.

items will be ready from mid- September, we are now into November,

:06:05.:06:08.

and Kirsty as family are still waiting. In fact, we have heard

:06:08.:06:11.

from lots of other frustrated customers who haven't received

:06:11.:06:16.

their goods either. Some have written to us, others have taken to

:06:16.:06:21.

social networking sites to voice their concerns.

:06:21.:06:27.

So, time to tackle the man behind the mess, Paul Levin from Remains

:06:27.:06:31.

of the Games. On the website it said some people will get their

:06:31.:06:33.

goods in September, it is now November. Why have they been

:06:33.:06:39.

waiting so long? We underestimated the complexity and the way of goods

:06:39.:06:43.

coming out from the venues. Goods coming out from venues in the

:06:43.:06:47.

village, are much, much slower than anybody projected and certainly

:06:47.:06:51.

what we were told. The goods that did come out, a lot of them were

:06:51.:06:56.

damaged. The thing that has really upset people is not being able to

:06:56.:07:00.

get in touch with you, either by phone or e-mail? Loads of things we

:07:00.:07:03.

would have liked to have done a lot better. We are sorry for that, we

:07:03.:07:08.

want customers to be happy, and we haven't achieved that. What

:07:08.:07:11.

guarantee can you now give to customers who are still waiting to

:07:11.:07:15.

receive their goods? We have over 80% of the stock in the collection

:07:15.:07:19.

centres. That means e-mails are going out. Inviting people to come

:07:19.:07:23.

and collect. Frankly, we want all the goods out of here. We now know

:07:23.:07:26.

that we are going to be able to give the sort of service that right

:07:27.:07:34.

at the start we wanted to give. With Paul promising that things are

:07:34.:07:37.

about to change, I can't resist speeding the process up for one

:07:37.:07:43.

family, at least. So, it's back to Kirsty's house

:07:43.:07:51.

with the boot full of bean bags! Hello, I have got something for you.

:07:51.:08:01.

Oh wow. Oh my God. Two cushions, keep passing it back.

:08:01.:08:05.

So the last time you saw this stuff was when you ordered it on the

:08:06.:08:10.

website some time ago. What is it like to actually see T I'm so

:08:10.:08:16.

pleased, thank you so much. Yeah! So for one family, at least, this

:08:16.:08:21.

story has a happy ending. Since then, the company has told us

:08:21.:08:25.

that many customers have received their goods, if you haven't, you

:08:25.:08:29.

should wait for an e-mail before you try to collect them. They have

:08:29.:08:32.

promised refunds where orders have been lost or damage. Would you have

:08:32.:08:38.

fancied that? I went to lots of things. Something like a javelin,

:08:38.:08:43.

or, like a giant pole vault mat. Yeah! That massive thing.

:08:43.:08:47.

They were the expensive things? Were they, could you get them.

:08:47.:08:52.

Hangers were a bargain, 50p? I have hangers. I can't say I would want

:08:52.:08:58.

that. I want to open my cupboards and get the glow of the Olympics

:08:58.:09:01.

every time I'm grabbing a shirt. You had a great time over the

:09:01.:09:08.

summer? I thought it was fantastic. I was one of these, the people who

:09:08.:09:13.

were on the web page, refreshing, refresh, refreshing, to get T any

:09:13.:09:17.

time something came up you grab it quickly I got a few tickets.

:09:17.:09:21.

Anything to get to anything. I was mad into it. You are your legacy is

:09:21.:09:26.

the picture you took? I blagged from the BBC into Katie Taylor,

:09:26.:09:30.

she's the Irish Boxer, you have to guess who that is, by the way.

:09:30.:09:35.

one person has that hairstyle? is a notable beehive. That is, I

:09:35.:09:40.

love saying this to Irish people, that is Princess Anne, covering her

:09:40.:09:43.

ears from the roars of the Irish crowd at the Katie Taylor fight.

:09:43.:09:48.

The best thing about it is, I took the photograph, I thought this is,

:09:48.:09:53.

slightly guilty, I took the photograph, she looked at me and

:09:53.:09:59.

just went, I met her once before. And then she stayed for the fight,

:09:59.:10:02.

she walked past, and we had a moment where we went like. That

:10:02.:10:07.

neither of us knew what to say. Steve Redgrave said, I said Steve,

:10:07.:10:13.

give us the hug, you are the king of the hugs, give us a hug. I have

:10:13.:10:18.

no clue, we had a moment, I don't know if he knows who I am, but two

:10:18.:10:23.

huge men hugging. Dara, your new DVD is out, Craic Dealer. We have

:10:23.:10:26.

to point out the obvious, this isn't you wearing a hoodie standing

:10:26.:10:31.

on a street corner? No, it is a pun that has proved difficult to sum!

:10:31.:10:35.

It should be noted, it is not, the way of explaining this, this might

:10:35.:10:42.

be very Bond Live And Let Die, this isn't me funnelling money illegally

:10:42.:10:51.

in drug use by setting up a loss- leader DVD. Cfrplt raic is an old

:10:51.:10:58.

Irish word for fun, it is great, next time I can do "craic addict"!

:10:58.:11:02.

The thing is I have done it so much, the year of touring it, I was

:11:02.:11:07.

passing through an airport in Dublin, a customs officers went as

:11:07.:11:13.

I went past, "oh here he is, the craic dealer!". Here is you

:11:13.:11:17.

pondering the London riots. I want have done it when I was 16. I

:11:17.:11:21.

wouldn't have been phoning around organising riots at 16. When I was

:11:21.:11:25.

16 we had one phone in the house, and it was in sitting room with the

:11:25.:11:31.

television and the couch. There is no way you can organise that.

:11:31.:11:36.

(quietly) we are having a riot, leave me be, I'm on the phone. "we

:11:36.:11:43.

will smash the system, and destroy capitalism, it will be amazing. I'm

:11:43.:11:48.

allowed to make calls as well. See you in town in half an hour, very

:11:48.:11:54.

good. I need a lift into town!" Dara, were you just getting too

:11:54.:11:58.

comfortable then behind the desk, or in the book? People presume

:11:58.:12:01.

because they see you doing the tele stuff all the time, that is what

:12:01.:12:07.

you do all the time. This year, for example, we did 1, 12, Mock The

:12:07.:12:11.

Week, 130 nights on tour. The TV stuff you drop in and do it so

:12:11.:12:15.

often, and then back out five nights on the road. The Craic

:12:15.:12:20.

Dealer DVD, is out on Monday. Someone we know was absolutely

:12:20.:12:24.

delighted when he discovered we were running a film tonight about a

:12:24.:12:28.

big-hearted bear that has been entertaining crowds for years.

:12:28.:12:34.

Imagine his disappointment when he realised it wasn't all about him!

:12:34.:12:41.

In August 1980, a full-scale air and sea search was mounted around

:12:41.:12:46.

the remote island in the Scottish Hebrides. The hunt attracted

:12:46.:12:51.

enormous media attention, and the story went global. But why all the

:12:51.:12:57.

fuss? Who or what had gone missing? The fugutive was a bear. An eight-

:12:57.:13:02.

foot tall, 06-stone grizzly called Hercules. Back in the 1970s, when

:13:02.:13:09.

you could still do such a thing, professional wrestler, Andy Robin,

:13:09.:13:14.

bought him from the local zoo for �50. He trained Hercules to play

:13:14.:13:18.

fight as part of his act. The bear became a member of the family,

:13:18.:13:23.

living and eating with Andy and his wife Maggie. Man and bear developed

:13:23.:13:29.

a unique bond of trust. One day, I swear to God, I fell in the river,

:13:29.:13:33.

he pounced on top of me. I thought, this is it, he's going to get me.

:13:33.:13:39.

He caught my hair and lifted me up, I swear to God, and looked at me as

:13:39.:13:44.

if to say, I'm not going to bite you. They travelled together in the

:13:44.:13:50.

world on this bus. The man and bear? They wrestled together. They

:13:50.:13:55.

loved to wrestle together. He had no chains on him, or barriers on

:13:55.:14:00.

the ring. He could jump out of the ring any day he wanted. Hercules

:14:00.:14:03.

graduated from the ring to TV appearances and commercials.

:14:03.:14:08.

Shooting an advert in the heb does, Andy allowed Hercules a break, for

:14:08.:14:15.

a favourite activity, a swim. Hercules promptly headed for the

:14:15.:14:18.

horizon. Talk about irresponsible parenting, really? He thinks he's

:14:18.:14:23.

in the pool he goes for a swim and taking off. Not knowing it is

:14:23.:14:27.

limitless. What did you do? Complete panic, because, unless you

:14:27.:14:31.

have been up there, you really don't realise the scope of the

:14:31.:14:41.
:14:41.:14:41.

place, the currents. Alan Shepherd remembers well the day he went

:14:41.:14:48.

missing. How on earth could a bear this size disappear? It was het iry

:14:48.:14:52.

moorland, he blended into that. The only way of seeing him was on the

:14:52.:14:58.

move. Were the farmers worried the sheep would be ravaged? If one

:14:58.:15:02.

sheep was found, it would have gone. The anxious parents were more

:15:02.:15:07.

worried that he would starve to death before eating livestock. He

:15:07.:15:11.

was something of a gas row gnome. He loved a good pot of sea in the

:15:11.:15:16.

morning, he liked his roast chicken, his prawns. He wouldn't eat raw

:15:16.:15:23.

meat. Of course not. Unless there was a roast lamb wandering about.

:15:23.:15:27.

Three weeks went by, with no sign of the bear. Andy and Maggie were

:15:27.:15:31.

frantic with worry. You went to bed at night, and I could hear him

:15:31.:15:35.

crying into his pillow. And I was doing the same. But you were trying

:15:35.:15:41.

not to bring it together to make it even worse. So it was just a

:15:41.:15:46.

horrible time. Then, when all hope seemed lost, a sighting, on the

:15:46.:15:56.
:15:56.:15:56.

island of north Uist. I saw the bear. From what distance? A mile or

:15:57.:16:01.

so. What was he doing? Walking across the moors. Tracked by

:16:01.:16:05.

helicopter, Hercules was shot with a tranquilliser dart, and reunited

:16:05.:16:10.

with Andy. But his time on the run, including the long swim to the next

:16:10.:16:14.

door island, had taken its toll. has lost 15 stone. Because he

:16:15.:16:20.

wasn't having the grub? He was very poorly, covered in ticks, I sat and

:16:20.:16:24.

picked all them off him. Every single person, I think, in the

:16:24.:16:30.

island brought milk. We had 1,000 pints of milk. 140 pints of milk

:16:30.:16:34.

appeared. He slurped away at it. That seemed to relife him. How was

:16:34.:16:38.

it for him when he got home? liked to be very close to you. He

:16:38.:16:43.

thought, I'm not having any more of that outdoor stuff. I'm staying

:16:43.:16:49.

close to home. Hercules recovered fully, and resumed his career. His

:16:49.:16:57.

escapist exploiplts making him more popular than ever. After --

:16:57.:17:02.

exploits making him more popular. He died from natural causes at the

:17:02.:17:08.

grand old age of 26. He lies here in their garden. You miss him

:17:08.:17:13.

still? He was a massive part of our lives, he made us laugh and brought

:17:13.:17:17.

us an enormous amount of pleasure. We will miss him still. It is jaw-

:17:17.:17:21.

dropping? That is like man in a suit. That entire report is a guy

:17:21.:17:26.

in a suit. He was in the studio in a television studio. I'm sorry to

:17:26.:17:30.

make it about us. Some show booked him as a guest. And there is

:17:30.:17:34.

somebody with you, a second half of the double act, it is bear! Can you

:17:34.:17:38.

imagine if we had one walking in from behind there, a big bear?

:17:39.:17:42.

would have an empty chair for him to fill. I would be throwing

:17:42.:17:49.

cameramen at him. That won insane. He loves a cup of tea. Pudsey is

:17:49.:17:53.

looking on in disbelief. Could never imagine a bear in the studio.

:17:53.:17:57.

You have a brand-new science show as well? Started last week, this

:17:57.:18:02.

Tuesday, five or six week of it, moving on to Christmas, Science

:18:02.:18:06.

Club, we take a topic and go at it from a fairly hefty way. We

:18:06.:18:11.

introduce it, it gets technical and we get into really good stuff.

:18:11.:18:15.

show experiments everyone can do at home? Obviously my impression of

:18:15.:18:19.

how you measure the speed of light would involve some massive

:18:19.:18:24.

telescope and planets and speed and lasers, how are we going to do it

:18:24.:18:28.

today? You could do it, or make cheese on toast. Lovely, that's

:18:28.:18:34.

perfect. You can see the hot spots where it is melted, left over the

:18:34.:18:38.

cold spots. Should we go for the centre. That should be half a

:18:38.:18:42.

wavelength, if you believe your theory.

:18:42.:18:46.

That should be correct. It is a very, very simple thing, anyone who

:18:46.:18:50.

sees it next Tuesday can do it. You can use cheese on toast or a large

:18:50.:18:53.

bar of chocolate, you measure the points and there is another number

:18:53.:18:57.

you need. We will see next Tuesday. We know you are a mass of knowledge,

:18:57.:19:01.

dar ra, we thought it would be quite interesting -- Dara, we

:19:01.:19:04.

thought it would be quite interesting to step into Dara

:19:04.:19:09.

O'Briain's brain! So, shall we spin the wheel? Surely

:19:09.:19:16.

there is more to my brain than that! There is other things I like.

:19:16.:19:21.

Last week we had Felix Baumgartner on the programme, can you, in your

:19:21.:19:26.

terms, explain why Felix doesn't get faster and faster and faster

:19:26.:19:30.

and faster? He got faster for a while and he slowed up. You reach a

:19:30.:19:34.

thing called terminal vessel loss tee, the speed of you going down is

:19:34.:19:37.

counter acted by the fact you are passing through the air, and you

:19:37.:19:40.

have friction from the air. The thicker the air, the closer to the

:19:40.:19:45.

ground, the slower you go. He hit a terminal velocity in thin air, and

:19:46.:19:49.

slowed down until the air got thicker, until he reached the 125

:19:49.:19:58.

miles an hour. Get in there again. As tron me. On Stargazing Live,

:19:58.:20:04.

your other pro-- astronomy. On Stargazing Live you look at other

:20:04.:20:07.

planets, is there life on other planets? Undoubtedly because there

:20:07.:20:11.

are so many planets and stars. You need somewhere a bit like us, a

:20:11.:20:15.

certain amount away from a heat source, with the right amount of

:20:15.:20:17.

chemicals, there is bound to be somewhere else. We will never get

:20:17.:20:21.

in contact with them. And Brian Cox went on a joke the other day about

:20:21.:20:25.

how the BBC stopped us due to health and safety. We didn't, we

:20:25.:20:28.

pointed a camera last January, we couldn't hearing anything. It will

:20:28.:20:32.

be next to impossible to hear from them. One of the programmes is

:20:32.:20:36.

about whether we can travel and hear from them in two weeks time.

:20:36.:20:41.

Yes there will be life somewhere. The last one, we know it is maths

:20:41.:20:44.

don't we! Earlier on you asked the audience to do this little

:20:44.:20:47.

Chancellor edge, we have lots of people sending -- challenge, we

:20:47.:20:57.
:20:57.:20:57.

have had lots of people sending in their ideas? That is classic not

:20:57.:21:04.

the right idea, that one is far away from that. An 11-year-old and

:21:04.:21:09.

nine-year-old? That is spot on. That is exactly what you do.

:21:09.:21:12.

That is another illustration on it, you have to move into another

:21:12.:21:19.

direction. Science Club is on Tuesdays, BBC Two, 9.00pm. Our

:21:19.:21:24.

Children in Need Rickshaw Challenge and the intrepid teenagers who make

:21:25.:21:29.

up Team Rickshaw. Their incredible 411-mile journey

:21:29.:21:31.

from London to Llandudno starts bright and early tomorrow. Pudsey

:21:31.:21:35.

and I will be on the train any moment. We are going in about ten,

:21:35.:21:38.

are you all set? I hope you have your thermals

:21:38.:21:43.

packed. I will join them on Saturday, on the A470. Each of them

:21:43.:21:45.

has been helped by Children in Need in the past. They are doing this

:21:45.:21:48.

because they want to raise money for other young children.

:21:48.:21:54.

So far we have heard from Lauren, Jack, Ciaran, James and Jamila,

:21:54.:21:57.

which leaves, last, but definitely not least, Darren.

:21:57.:22:00.

Get the phones at the ready, details of how to donate will be on

:22:00.:22:04.

the screen during the film. Hello, my name is Darren, this is

:22:04.:22:09.

my family. My sister, my brother Sid, my dad, my mam. Not to mention,

:22:09.:22:15.

the four guide dogs. I'm a massive Doctor Who fan, as

:22:16.:22:21.

you can see from the huge collection here, I even have my own

:22:21.:22:25.

sonic screwdriver. I was born with a degenerative eye

:22:25.:22:30.

condition which is hereditary. It is called gauk coma, it is passed

:22:30.:22:35.

down from -- glauk coma, it passed down from my dad's side, my mum has

:22:35.:22:42.

eye problems as well. My brother and sister both have glaucoma, you

:22:42.:22:47.

have the sight troubles of your own, and living with people with worse

:22:47.:22:51.

sights, so you have to be their eyes as well. It has isolated us as

:22:51.:22:58.

a family from other families that have sight. You find it hard to mix

:22:58.:23:07.

and mingle with sighted children. He can do the same things, but it

:23:07.:23:14.

may take him longer. Today I'm rock claiming.

:23:14.:23:18.

-- rock climbing. We set this up because of the lack of support for

:23:18.:23:21.

vision-impaired children in the north eefplts thanks to Children in

:23:21.:23:24.

Need we have been able to run -- north-east, that is to Children in

:23:24.:23:29.

Need we have been able to run many activities for visually impaired

:23:29.:23:33.

children, the sorts of things normally they wouldn't be able to

:23:33.:23:36.

access. Darren has grown up with us, he has been very involved in

:23:36.:23:40.

everything we do. Very active and coming to nearly everything. His

:23:40.:23:44.

self-confidence and self-esteem has really improved since he has been

:23:44.:23:49.

coming to these sorts of activities. How was that? Fine, I enjoyed it.

:23:49.:23:54.

When I went to Useful Vision, that was the turning point in my life,

:23:54.:24:00.

really. They offered support and other families that had visual

:24:00.:24:04.

impairments. I could talk to them, and kids my own age, who had visual

:24:04.:24:09.

impairments. It was like I'm not the only one, I'm not alone, there

:24:09.:24:12.

is other people going through this as well.

:24:12.:24:18.

It is going to be more difficult for me for the Rickshaw Challenge

:24:18.:24:23.

because of my sight impairment. On coming obstacles that may move,

:24:23.:24:27.

such as traffic, may be less visible to me. There will have to

:24:27.:24:31.

be someone who tells me that. I have been doing some training, I

:24:31.:24:36.

have been training in the gym in Newcastle College, 20 minutes a day,

:24:36.:24:39.

three days a week on the bike machine. Just doing plenty of

:24:39.:24:46.

walking, hopefully it will help towards within I do the challenge.

:24:46.:24:51.

If it starts getting tough, me and his mum will be thinking about him.

:24:51.:24:56.

Keep on meddling and going, it is a very good cause. I'm a bit nervous

:24:56.:25:00.

about the bike ride, because of the sheer distance that has to be

:25:00.:25:04.

travelled. There will be loads of difficulties along the way, but I

:25:04.:25:08.

can hopefully combat them, like I have combatted everything in my

:25:08.:25:15.

life. Bring it on. (rings bell)

:25:15.:25:18.

A lovely family. There we are. Could you tell everybody how they

:25:18.:25:22.

can donate. I would be delighted, to show your support text the

:25:22.:25:32.
:25:32.:25:40.

details below. You can also donate any amount you

:25:40.:25:50.
:25:50.:25:53.

:25:53.:26:00.

is with Team Rickshaw in Llandudno. Hello. Hello, yes, welcome to

:26:00.:26:04.

Llandudno. We're all in high spirits here, as you can see the

:26:04.:26:08.

rickshaw is outside. It has had a full maintenance check, it is safe,

:26:08.:26:13.

a God polish and all set to go. We have come in-- a good polish and

:26:13.:26:17.

all set to go. Here are Team Rickshaw. You might recognise six

:26:17.:26:21.

of the face, say hello to Sam and Shannon, who are reserves, just in

:26:21.:26:24.

cautious you will be there, whipping them, getting them in

:26:24.:26:28.

shape. I want a quick word with Lauren, how are you feeling?

:26:28.:26:32.

Feeling really good about it, I'm feeling really excited. You are

:26:32.:26:35.

looking forward to raising lots of money for Children in Need? Yes,

:26:35.:26:40.

once I start a job I finish it. are my sort of girl. You guys do

:26:40.:26:43.

not know who is starting off tomorrow morning. I can tell you

:26:43.:26:48.

the person starting off is James. Yes. You didn't expect that, did

:26:48.:26:54.

you? Everyone was going I don't want to start. How are you feeling?

:26:54.:26:59.

Well, that's pretty cool. I think it will be, yeah, I better get

:26:59.:27:02.

going. I'm going to let that sink in. We

:27:02.:27:06.

have a nice meal coming up later, I need to tell you about the route.

:27:06.:27:13.

Tomorrow it starts off at 6.00pm. It goes through Snowdonia National

:27:13.:27:18.

Park, off to Ffestiniog, then Ganllwyd, then Dolgellau, and

:27:18.:27:23.

hopefully by early evening you will be there, I hope I did the

:27:23.:27:27.

pronunciations right. If you live along the route it is the A470,

:27:27.:27:31.

cheer the guys on. You want support, don't you. We know last year when

:27:31.:27:35.

Matt did the Rickshaw Challenge he was astounded, and it really

:27:35.:27:39.

boosted him the amount of people who came and supported him. The

:27:39.:27:48.

last thing we did before we tuck into real carbohydrates, no more

:27:48.:27:51.

cake. As you know Bradley Wiggins was supposed to much recorded a

:27:51.:27:54.

special message, but he had an accident. Why not give Bradley a

:27:54.:28:00.

message from us. Let's look down the camera, what do we want to say.

:28:00.:28:07.

Get well soon Bradley! Back to you guys. We have some food to eat! All

:28:07.:28:11.

of Team Rickshaw, good luck, of course. It is going to be a big one.

:28:11.:28:15.

It is so funny it dawns on you that it is actually happening, and there

:28:15.:28:20.

is no way back. It is great, I would love to see what message

:28:20.:28:22.

Bradley Wiggins would have sent today, a very different tone, I

:28:23.:28:26.

would say. After tomorrow's tough ride to Dolgellau, the route

:28:26.:28:32.

continues to Lampeter, Swansea, Cardiff, Reading on Thursday,

:28:32.:28:35.

Salisbury, and we will be broadcasting from all those towns

:28:35.:28:39.

live next week. You can track our progress via the

:28:39.:28:44.

Children in Need website. Please, please, just donate

:28:44.:28:49.

whatever you can. If you go to the website it will tell you exactly

:28:49.:28:53.

where the rickshaw is, you can rush out and see it.

:28:53.:28:56.
