:00:22. > :00:28.Hello. Friends. Welcome to a One Show cocktail with the James Bond
:00:28. > :00:33.twist. It will leave you shaken, but hopefully not stirred. Alex
:00:33. > :00:38.Jones was there. It is amazing what you can do in a pair of leggings
:00:38. > :00:43.and a best. There's a real life James Bond in the building.
:00:43. > :00:46.else is here with a license to thrill? For Your Eyes Only w the
:00:46. > :00:52.latest from Strictly, it's Alesha Dixon.
:00:52. > :00:59.Pretty good! Also, the man with the golden fork
:00:59. > :01:03.- it's Jay Rayner. And nobody does it better - we will
:01:03. > :01:13.talk live to David Walliams about today's leg of his epic Sports
:01:13. > :01:19.
:01:19. > :01:26.Relief swim. Now, just before 007o guest? It's Roger Moore. Lovely to
:01:26. > :01:31.see you. Now, all week, we've been keeping tabs on David Walliams.
:01:31. > :01:34.He's doing a swim down the Thames. You two are good friends. We are
:01:34. > :01:44.not swimming friends, but good friends. If you don't believe us,
:01:44. > :01:44.
:01:44. > :01:49.have a look at this! I was having a fancy moment - I'm
:01:49. > :01:55.the real life James Bond, swimming in the Thames!
:01:55. > :02:00.I often think about the pre-title sequences of all the films. It's a
:02:00. > :02:07.sad thing to do, but it passes the time. Roger, I love you as a
:02:07. > :02:11.gentleman, I love you as a Saint and as Brett Sinclair in The
:02:11. > :02:15.Persuaders. We will talk about Brett Sinclair later on. How did
:02:15. > :02:25.you become friends, such good friends, you and David Walliams?
:02:25. > :02:30.was actually a Bond fan. I was a big fan of Little Britain. I think
:02:31. > :02:40.they are hysterical, they are very funny shows. I did an interview at
:02:41. > :02:42.
:02:42. > :02:47.the BFI, a question and answer, and he was a question yeah -- person
:02:47. > :02:53.asking questions. It has been a tough week for David. He has
:02:53. > :02:59.endured ice-cold temperatures and had a nasty stomach bug. They call
:02:59. > :03:05.it Thames belly. Angela Rippon is giving him moral support. How is
:03:05. > :03:09.David doing, Angela? I tell you, Alex, it has not just been a tough
:03:09. > :03:13.few days, it's been traumatic. It is fair to say that even a couple
:03:13. > :03:19.of days ago his support team were anxious they may have to abort the
:03:19. > :03:23.mission, he was so ill. He had diarrhoea. He was vomiting. He was
:03:23. > :03:27.suffering from hypothermia. He was so ill that was zapping his
:03:27. > :03:32.strength. It was hard for him to make the 17 miles he wanted to
:03:32. > :03:37.average. David is no quiter. He is now on antibiotics. As these shots
:03:37. > :03:42.of him show he has really now hit his stride. The current in the
:03:42. > :03:48.Thames is helping him along. He has picked up a lot of speed today. I
:03:48. > :03:54.am near the bridge at Marlow. There are nearly 2,000 people here, all
:03:54. > :04:00.desperate to catch a glimpse of him. They are being entertained by the
:04:00. > :04:04.aqua aerobics team over there. He would have done 86 of the miles.
:04:04. > :04:10.More than half of the journey. I don't know when he'll arrive or
:04:10. > :04:16.when. As soon as I know, you'll be the first to know. It is very
:04:16. > :04:20.exciting. They are called aquabatics.
:04:20. > :04:30.If you live there, get down and cheer David on!
:04:30. > :04:31.
:04:31. > :04:35.Take a look at a clip which has made a lot of people smile of late.
:04:35. > :04:45.Well, it could become much harder for dogs to stick their heads out
:04:45. > :04:46.
:04:46. > :04:53.of the Carwyn dough if owners are It is only 30 years since you could
:04:53. > :04:58.drive without wearing a seat belt. Just over 20 years ago back-seat
:04:58. > :05:02.passengers, including children, did not have to belt up either. It
:05:02. > :05:06.seems crazy to imagine we didn't think it was a good idea to wear a
:05:06. > :05:14.seat belt. Now people want us to strap our pets in too. Don't they?
:05:14. > :05:18.Yes, they do! And this, say campaigners, is why.
:05:19. > :05:24.This footage comes from a company in the US, which makes doggy seat
:05:24. > :05:28.belts. Here in the UK, campaigners are signed up 50,000 names for a
:05:28. > :05:37.petition calling for seat belts to be made compulsory for dogs. It is
:05:37. > :05:47.a sensible safety measure, or bureaucracy gone mad? Across the UK,
:05:47. > :05:55.this is BBC Radio 5 Live. How do you keep your dog under control.
:05:55. > :06:01.Hello Beverley. Do we need further legislation? We are lagging behind.
:06:01. > :06:05.The rest of the world has this legislation.

:06:15. > :06:20.out of a Carwyn dough is very cute and very, very -- of a car window
:06:20. > :06:24.is very cute and very, very British. I flip up the arm rest and that
:06:25. > :06:31.keeps them in place. I am sure it is the same for other dog owners
:06:31. > :06:38.too. TV chef Anthony has owned dogs most
:06:38. > :06:43.of his life. He regularly drives them around. He never buckles them
:06:43. > :06:46.up. Dogs aren't like humans. You cannot control them completely.
:06:46. > :06:53.They fret, they don't like being attached. You have to buy yourself
:06:53. > :06:58.a car which suits a dog. If you have a big dog like I have, you buy
:06:58. > :07:02.a hatch-back or a 4X4, which has a grill to keep it in itself place. A
:07:02. > :07:08.dog wants to move around. It wants to turn around. It is nosey. I
:07:08. > :07:17.wants to see what is going on. Harnessing a dog, to me, will give
:07:17. > :07:25.it unnecessary stress. Mine would not like it. Chris Palmer Smith is
:07:25. > :07:31.up against this opposition. Am I being irresponsible Yes. A Labrador
:07:31. > :07:39.in impact is like the impact of an elephant. What about the fun dogs
:07:39. > :07:45.have? You see them in a car, with their tongues hanging out.
:07:45. > :07:51.We wouldn't dream of doing that with our children. We are concerned
:07:51. > :07:56.of his safety. Two dogs, two harnesss. Give me your right foot.
:07:56. > :08:02.Come on, baby! I've got it. Up and over. The next one comes around the
:08:02. > :08:08.back and clips in. Is that it? Here we go - that's it! The brakes
:08:08. > :08:14.at 30 and they will be safe. Like a normal seat belt. They tense up.
:08:14. > :08:19.They don't look traumatised. They can lie down. They have plenty of
:08:19. > :08:26.movement. But they can't come through the front and sit on me
:08:26. > :08:29.knee. If the campaign gets 100,000 signatures that should get a debate
:08:29. > :08:35.in Parliament. I was approaching a round about,
:08:35. > :08:40.the next car was coming quickly. As I went around the roundabout it
:08:40. > :08:43.failed to stop. It actually hit the back end of the car on the
:08:43. > :08:49.passenger side, close to where she was. Unfortunately she was thrown
:08:49. > :08:56.across the car, into the other side of the car and impacted into the
:08:56. > :09:00.driver's side of the car. What kind of injuries did she sustain?
:09:00. > :09:04.injuries to her rib cage and leg. If you tried to scope her up she
:09:04. > :09:11.was in a lot of pain around her rib cage and that sort of area. So, it
:09:11. > :09:17.was very distressing, not just for herself, but for me also.
:09:18. > :09:21.Fortd natly Cally sur-- fortunately Cally survived. Jamie will not
:09:22. > :09:26.travel without strapping her in again. It is not a trip for me
:09:26. > :09:34.unless I have the kids in one ear and the dogs in the other. From now
:09:34. > :09:38.on, for me, it's clunk-clip every doggy trip.

:09:43. > :09:50.# Love my dog # Nothing like a Friday night snog
:09:50. > :09:56.with a dog, is there! Are there many dogs in Monaco? Yes. It is
:09:56. > :10:03.extraordinary. Everybody lives in an apartment and they have a dog.
:10:03. > :10:06.It is one thing I would not do. imagine toy dogs? There are some
:10:06. > :10:12.big, big dogs, then there are some women.
:10:12. > :10:18.We will get to the women later! Roger Moore!
:10:18. > :10:23.Roger Moore is here to talk about the persuader's 40th anniversary.
:10:23. > :10:27.The DVD set will come out soon. Can you tell people who The Persuaders
:10:27. > :10:35.were, how they got together and what was their mission?
:10:35. > :10:42.Persuaders were Brett Sinclair, who was a laid-back English man. Tony
:10:42. > :10:47.Curtis, Danny Wild. They were two wealthy, independent men, who would
:10:47. > :10:55.go after the same thing in a different way. They were brought
:10:55. > :10:59.together by a judge. There were four just men, exaccept there were
:10:59. > :11:03.only two of them. They had a wonderful time.
:11:03. > :11:13.Let's see when you and your partner met for the first time, from the
:11:13. > :11:15.
:11:15. > :11:19.Hey! Yeah, you, would you mind your car, please? Thank you very much.
:11:19. > :11:29.Why don't you do that in your bedroom? Would you get out of the
:11:29. > :11:39.
:11:40. > :11:44.APPLAUSE No contest! You win. You win with
:11:44. > :11:51.the girls, the shirt and the car. That's a great shirt. I had a lot
:11:51. > :11:59.of hair then! Let me ask you about this - we had Joan Collins on the
:11:59. > :12:04.radio show. She said your dad -- her dad was your agent? He was the
:12:04. > :12:08.agent of my wife at that time. Was it true you were paid �1
:12:08. > :12:13.million? It was a huge amount for a television series? I wish it was
:12:13. > :12:20.true. I love all these amounts of money I earn. Is that not true?
:12:20. > :12:27.It's not true. It was �900,000. LAUGHTER
:12:27. > :12:33.What a gig though! Was Tony Curtis paid the same? He got a couple of
:12:33. > :12:37.bob more than me. He was a big star. Did he see it as a climbdown? He
:12:37. > :12:43.got the hump for a while about being a TV star? He was not happy
:12:43. > :12:47.at first. It was the first time he'd done a television series. That
:12:47. > :12:54.opening sequence, we finished up having a race. We end up in front
:12:54. > :12:58.of the hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo, while we were shooting this,
:12:58. > :13:05.buses of tourists around from -- arrived from Spain. At that time,
:13:05. > :13:13.in Spain I was very big. Were you big in Spain? Oh, big in Spain!
:13:13. > :13:20.They started coming towards Tony and I. Tony was going, "Oh, God
:13:21. > :13:24.damn fans." They pushed him to one side. Roger wins again, everyone!
:13:24. > :13:30.He realised then the power of television, because more people see
:13:30. > :13:40.you on television than at the cinema. You were very sharpy
:13:40. > :13:45.dressed, great locations. We were saying, What a job!" did your role
:13:45. > :13:54.as Brett Sinclair pave the way for 007? No Sean Connery paved the way.
:13:55. > :14:00.We heard you were offered the job of James Bond before him because of
:14:00. > :14:04.TV commitments I had not read any of the books. It was quite, sort of
:14:04. > :14:09.out of the blue. I knew they were looking for a James Bond. I
:14:09. > :14:13.remember that story running in the Daily Express, I think.
:14:13. > :14:20.More than that, I didn't know a thing. I was innocent!
:14:20. > :14:29.And still are, until proven guilty! OK, well some fantastic chat-up
:14:29. > :14:37.me! Are you prepared to give us one now?
:14:37. > :14:47.OK! My name is Brett Sinclair, most people call me Brett, but you can
:14:47. > :14:50.
:14:50. > :14:55.call me darling. Later, we will reunite Roger with
:14:55. > :14:59.the original car from The Persuaders. It is outside, complete
:14:59. > :15:03.with the original number plate. You can join in at home. We want to see
:15:03. > :15:09.you with the first car that you ever owned. Send them to the usual
:15:09. > :15:15.address and we will show some later. Time to tuck into Foodie Friday.
:15:15. > :15:20.What is on the menu? Wild sea food. Delicious, sustainable, and if you
:15:20. > :15:27.are prepared to work for it, completely free.
:15:27. > :15:30.Where there is water, there is life, even on a British beach holiday. So
:15:30. > :15:34.while my kids are telling me about the wonderful creatures they have
:15:34. > :15:40.found in the rock pools, I am thinking, lovely, I wonder if you
:15:40. > :15:43.can eat that? Well, it turns out that more often than expected, the
:15:43. > :15:47.answer is yes. Andy Davies has been foraging on the Welsh coast since
:15:47. > :15:54.he was a small boy, and it is something we can all do. There are
:15:54. > :15:59.lots of creatures you can find - crabs, lobsters, prawns. Can we go
:15:59. > :16:03.foraging anywhere? Generally you are free to forage. Most of it is
:16:03. > :16:08.owned by the Crown Estate. The need permission and unique to know what
:16:08. > :16:13.you're doing to go there. This is managed by the National Trust and
:16:13. > :16:18.is known for its range of high and low tides. Spring tides bring good
:16:18. > :16:23.catches, but also a danger. tide will raise in and we could get
:16:24. > :16:27.cut-off between two headlands, so you have to know the area. He is
:16:27. > :16:36.passing on the foraging habits to his children, but luckily for me he
:16:36. > :16:38.will also teach hungry holidaymakers. Work your way along.
:16:38. > :16:45.But after 20 minutes of thin pickings, I am worried we will stay
:16:45. > :16:50.hungry. What have you got? Lots of prawns, but they are too small.
:16:50. > :16:54.throws back with tiddlers, and females carrying eggs. Lobster and
:16:54. > :16:59.crabs must be a legal minimum size, and specimens that are big enough
:16:59. > :17:06.to catch a frequently hide in these very pools. But nature has decided
:17:06. > :17:12.there is something else on today's menu. That is a proper prawn. We
:17:12. > :17:22.can take him. That is a lovely size. The first catch of the day.
:17:22. > :17:27.
:17:27. > :17:31.Excellent! There we go. That is a good prawn. I did not expect this
:17:32. > :17:34.amount of seafood would be so easy to catch. Perhaps British
:17:34. > :17:41.holidaymakers have more to be thankful for them they thought.
:17:41. > :17:46.Shall we do some cooking? Good idea. Simply boiled in water, a dash of
:17:46. > :17:52.lemon, this is how seafood is best. This is not just a summer harvest.
:17:52. > :17:59.You can grab this food all year round. This is the great thing, the
:17:59. > :18:08.smell. The boys took minutes to collect these winkles. It is great.
:18:08. > :18:16.We do not have a sink. Look at the colour of the prawns. How is that?
:18:16. > :18:22.Pure taste of the sea. You nicked the biggest one, didn't you? I did.
:18:22. > :18:30.The aroma of cooked prawns and winkles soon attracts others. Is
:18:30. > :18:37.that good? Lovely, really nice. I am going to have another. Beautiful.
:18:37. > :18:41.Can I have some? There is something intensely satisfying about this. I
:18:41. > :18:51.helped to catch these, and now I'm eating them. Very fresh, very sweet.
:18:51. > :18:53.
:18:53. > :18:56.Delicious. Lovely part of the world. Although you did have to see me in
:18:57. > :19:01.shorts, and I will make sure it never happens again. You looked
:19:01. > :19:07.like Cliff Richard. You should bring out their calendar!
:19:07. > :19:11.realistic is it that people will go looking for muscles and shrimps?
:19:11. > :19:16.You are not going to feed a family of four on a regular basis but it
:19:16. > :19:26.is a lovely thing to do and we found a serious number of prawns.
:19:26. > :19:29.What seafood is in season? Right now, you can have oysters. Native
:19:29. > :19:36.Oysters, I can only have them when there is an art in the months. The
:19:36. > :19:40.summer months, you are not meant to touch them. The Pacific Oysters,
:19:40. > :19:48.the little crescent shaped ones are cheaper and available all year
:19:48. > :19:55.round. I think they're pretty good as well. Roger, how do you like
:19:55. > :20:05.your oysters? In the shell. I like a squeeze of lemon. I sometimes
:20:05. > :20:08.
:20:08. > :20:15.like a spot of Tabasco. Vinegar and onion? Yes. No salt and pepper. As
:20:15. > :20:21.long as it has been prepared. Chablis or champagne with it?
:20:21. > :20:31.preferred dry sherry. Nothing better than Cherie. Going back to
:20:31. > :20:32.
:20:32. > :20:36.frozen food... What about a lottery win? With seafood, fresh or frozen?
:20:36. > :20:40.Frozen is fine in certain regards. Langoustine, for example,
:20:40. > :20:45.marvellous things and they are fine frozen. We do not eat enough here
:20:45. > :20:49.and they go to France and Spain. Other things can get a bit spongy,
:20:49. > :20:53.certain prawns and shrimps. The most important thing is
:20:53. > :20:57.sustainability. Look for the blue tick to tell you they have been
:20:57. > :21:03.raised in a sustainable manner. And ideally, look for domestic. We do
:21:03. > :21:07.not need to fly in prawns from Thailand and Indonesia. Prince
:21:07. > :21:13.Charles is going to have a cook book out. It has just been
:21:13. > :21:17.published. It shares a name with the Queen Mother's favourite castle.
:21:17. > :21:26.These are her favourite recipes, including this very posh prawn
:21:26. > :21:31.cocktail, which has lobster, prawns, Tabasco, anchovy. And is it set in
:21:31. > :21:37.a gel? Yes, there is a light jelly on the top. Rather classy and
:21:38. > :21:44.probably costs an enormous amount. What is the jelly like? It is
:21:44. > :21:51.gorgeous. Lots of really good things in a glass, Chris.
:21:51. > :21:58.Unfortunately, we only have vodka martini. Never mind! You have a
:21:58. > :22:04.James Bond like... Pay attention, Roger. This is an apple peeler.
:22:04. > :22:11.Watch what happens. This apple is being peeled. It is being called.
:22:11. > :22:21.Marvellous things are happening here. Live. You just have to push
:22:21. > :22:23.
:22:23. > :22:29.it through and it should... Look at that! Look at it fall apart! I am
:22:29. > :22:38.going back to the cocktail. I think that is a marvellous gadgets.
:22:38. > :22:44.think this is tremendous. We might be able to get Prince Charles on if
:22:44. > :22:47.he has a book out. You are welcome any time. Thank you. We have a
:22:47. > :22:54.romance this evening between Roger Moore and David Walliams. Watch
:22:54. > :22:59.this. I got this phone call from his No. I did not know. Hello. I
:22:59. > :23:04.said, hello. Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy
:23:04. > :23:10.birthday, dear David, happy birthday to you. I said, who is
:23:10. > :23:15.this? It's a Roger Moore. I said, I am lying in bed naked. So am I.
:23:16. > :23:25.Such a shame we are not together. I know.
:23:26. > :23:30.
:23:30. > :23:35.True story? It is his story. It is both of yours. I am glad he was
:23:35. > :23:40.doing the breaststroke. Time to go back to Angela Rippon. She is
:23:40. > :23:46.keeping tabs on David Walliams. How is he doing? Can you see him? Where
:23:46. > :23:50.is he? I think you can hear from the cheering of the crowd on the
:23:50. > :23:55.other bank that David Walliams has just rounded the bend in the Thames.
:23:55. > :24:00.More than 2000 people here waiting to see him. Their patience has been
:24:00. > :24:03.rewarded. Here he comes, as he swims the last 100 yards to the
:24:03. > :24:09.point right here where he is going to come out of the river. He will
:24:09. > :24:13.have been Sir Ming for 10 hours and covered just over 17 miles. In case
:24:13. > :24:18.you're wondering, he is the one in the silver cap. Beside him in the
:24:18. > :24:25.orange cap, his trainer. Just listen to the reception that he is
:24:25. > :24:29.getting. As I say, he has been in the water about 10 hours. He had a

:25:31. > :25:35.hero. Look at him! Angela, are you going to dive in?
:25:35. > :25:39.His wife is the first person to greet him and give him a big kiss.
:25:39. > :25:45.Of course, she has to come first. David, you must be so pleased to
:25:45. > :25:50.get your feet on dry land at last. Definitely. What an amazing turn
:25:50. > :25:54.out of people in Marlow. There are lot of people missing the One Show
:25:54. > :25:59.tonight. You have had people on the banks following you all day. Are
:25:59. > :26:04.you aware of them when you are Sir Ming? Yes, can see them and it
:26:04. > :26:09.spurs me on. The only thing is, you start to wave at people and then
:26:09. > :26:12.you miss your stroke. I speed up the bit when I see people because I
:26:12. > :26:18.want them to think I'm a good swimmer. You must be freezing. Go
:26:18. > :26:27.and get warm and drive. You are frozen! We will talk to you in
:26:27. > :26:32.about 15 minutes. See you, David. And he is still funny. He has been
:26:32. > :26:36.Sir Ming all day and he is still funny. Roger, you can talk to him
:26:36. > :26:43.later if you like. That would be nice. I am worried about his eyes.
:26:43. > :26:48.He looked like Stephen Fry! I think it was a bit swollen because he is
:26:48. > :26:55.so cold. Let's talk about Bond. We were worried you would not want to
:26:55. > :27:03.talk about it but you have a book coming out. Yes, Bond on Bond. Out
:27:03. > :27:10.next summer. Your favourite Bond film, other than your own? The Spy
:27:10. > :27:16.Who loved Me. Oh, apart from mine. Oh, were there any? OK, your
:27:16. > :27:25.favourite James Bourne, other than you. My favourite James Bond film
:27:25. > :27:35.is diamonds are forever. So Sean Connery is your favourite. Your
:27:35. > :27:41.
:27:41. > :27:45.favourite Bond villain. Obviously, Jaws. Your favourite Bond location?
:27:45. > :27:50.Sardinia, where I learnt to ride the wet bike. Nobody had ever seen
:27:50. > :27:56.one before. I had to ride the jet bike without getting wet, because I
:27:56. > :28:03.was in uniform and my hair was carefully lacquered. I was doing
:28:03. > :28:08.quite well. They wanted this shot of Bond, Commander Bond out at sea,
:28:08. > :28:12.so I had to go a long way out with a helicopter following. What I did
:28:12. > :28:16.not realise, I had no communication with the helicopter, and as it came
:28:16. > :28:24.closer, the down draught from the blades started driving the bottom
:28:24. > :28:29.of the bike. There was no way... I was trying desperately to stay on
:28:29. > :28:35.because I knew I had to go back two miles, get made up again. Get my
:28:35. > :28:39.hair done. It is fair to say that you were not keen on doing stunts.
:28:40. > :28:49.Let's have a look at you having fun with some crocodiles. This is our
:28:50. > :29:01.
:29:01. > :29:05.Quick question. Were they real crocodiles? Were they your legs?
:29:05. > :29:10.They were real crocodiles and real alligator shoes, which was terrible
:29:10. > :29:16.of me to wear. It was the cousin of one of the crocodile's I jumped on.
:29:16. > :29:19.Of course it wasn't me! They would not let me do that. They said in
:29:19. > :29:23.the papers that they had to stop filming the most recent Bond film
:29:23. > :29:29.in India because of health and safety. How was health and safety
:29:29. > :29:34.when you were around? It was not healthy with the crocodiles. There
:29:34. > :29:40.were 1500. One of them, the fellow that doubled me, who renamed the
:29:40. > :29:47.villain after, he ran his alligator farm, and his father had been eaten
:29:47. > :29:52.by one of them. Oh, dear! Not healthy or safe. One of them did
:29:52. > :29:56.snap at one time when it was running over his shoe, which was
:29:56. > :30:06.eating your cousin. He probably did not enjoy as somebody running on
:30:06. > :30:13.
:30:13. > :30:23.his head. Your first cars. How He was 18 when he got this car.
:30:23. > :30:24.
:30:24. > :30:31.Ford Escort Mark III. In January 1950 I paid �50 for this
:30:31. > :30:36.Ford Anglia van. He got a bargain! We will get Roger
:30:36. > :30:40.outside with the Aston Martin from The Persuaders. Last week's show we
:30:40. > :30:44.celebrated the Ealing Studios and some of their greatest hits. At no
:30:44. > :30:47.point did we intend to give the impression they're not in business
:30:47. > :30:52.any more. They very much are still in business. In fact, right now
:30:53. > :31:01.they are making a film called The Long Shot. It is being directed by
:31:01. > :31:07.the guy who did the Full Monty. Well done, Ealing Studios. We will
:31:07. > :31:13.give Roger a brand new Bond girl, Alesha Dixon. She has top-secret
:31:13. > :31:17.information. In Moonraker, Roger, you had a
:31:17. > :31:22.mission as James Bond to find a missing space shuttle. We could
:31:22. > :31:28.have done with you this week. For our next story, you would have done
:31:28. > :31:34.great. Unfortunately he is retired, so we had to send Alex Riley.
:31:34. > :31:38.Space, the final frontier. It is not just about Star Trek, you know!
:31:38. > :31:41.Exploring the cosmos has been for the Americans and the Russians.
:31:42. > :31:48.Sometimes the Chinese. Not many people realise Britain had its own
:31:48. > :31:53.space programme. We never made it to Mars. In 1971 a British rocket
:31:53. > :31:59.launched our first satellite. Here it is - an exact copy of Britain's
:31:59. > :32:06.first ever satellite. Believe it or not, it's still up there. It just
:32:06. > :32:12.hasn't spoken in a while. Hi! When it launched in 1971, it was a proud
:32:12. > :32:19.moment for the nation. A bit like a budget version of the moon landing.
:32:19. > :32:27.What was the initial purpose of Prosperer. It was telling the
:32:27. > :32:31.boffins how to make spacecraft. They were testing systems. It was
:32:31. > :32:36.part of a learning curve, for what was to become a successful space
:32:36. > :32:42.industry in the UK. How come we've lost contract with it? It is an old
:32:42. > :32:47.bird. She's been up there 40 years. Batteries should have died by now.
:32:47. > :32:53.It would be remarkable if they could contact it. Why do we need to
:32:53. > :32:57.speak to it again? It is the romance of space. For a historian,
:32:57. > :33:02.like myself, it is about making contact with the past. For the guys
:33:02. > :33:11.who built this, they are interested to see if their engineering and
:33:11. > :33:21.technology still works. You cannot help wondering, what would a
:33:21. > :33:21.
:33:21. > :33:27.satellite from the '70s tell us? "Bell bottoms are a mistake!"
:33:27. > :33:32.40 years after it was launched, a group of real-live Star Trekers are
:33:32. > :33:39.trying to establish contact. I have come here to a space laboratory in
:33:39. > :33:45.Surrey, to meet the team who are desperately seeking the satellite.
:33:45. > :33:50.So this is the only place on Earth that it is receiving signals?
:33:50. > :33:54.does both. How do you communicate with it? We've had to modify our
:33:54. > :34:01.equipment to communicate with it. It is like a mobile phone. Mobile
:34:01. > :34:05.phones are modern technology. This is '70s technology. Why is it so
:34:05. > :34:10.important? It is a landmark mission. It was the only British satellite
:34:10. > :34:13.to be launched on a British rocket... Ever! You can speak the
:34:13. > :34:18.language of the satellite? Yes. What sort of information do you
:34:18. > :34:25.hope to get from the satellite? Hopefully it will respond and send
:34:25. > :34:31.something back, which we can record. I would be very happy.
:34:31. > :34:35.If it was decide to send back a few beep-beeps, this could be just the
:34:35. > :34:39.push Britain needs to venture where no man has gone before. Failing
:34:39. > :34:49.that, we could just pretend. Beam me up, Scoty.
:34:49. > :34:53.Beam me up.... No! Thanks Alex. NASA says one of
:34:53. > :34:58.its six-tonne dead satellites - this has actually died now - will
:34:58. > :35:02.fall to Earth, expected at the end of the month, everyone. Don't worry
:35:02. > :35:11.there's little chance it will hit anyone. In fact there's only a one
:35:11. > :35:15.chance in 3,200. That is of it even hitting Earth. Tomorrow is the
:35:15. > :35:18.start of Strictly Come Dancing. We are very excited about Alex taking
:35:18. > :35:23.part here. We thought it best she starts to suck up to the judges
:35:23. > :35:33.straight away. Let's get the first one on. We'll have them all on in
:35:33. > :35:39.the next few weeks. Let's welcome Alesha Dixon. Hi.
:35:39. > :35:44.Lovely to see you. So, you've been on this journey that Alex is about
:35:44. > :35:50.to embark upon? Yes. She is second favourite with the bookies,
:35:50. > :35:55.everyone. That will not last. It will end tomorrow. I was an
:35:55. > :35:59.outsider with the bookies when I started. Have you met Nancy yet?
:35:59. > :36:04.Yes. She's a character, isn't she? I am really looking forward to
:36:04. > :36:10.seeing her dance. You sort of agree with that? She's a character.
:36:10. > :36:13.to watch, I think. Advice for Alex? With you, you have such an
:36:13. > :36:21.incredible personal and -- personality, and natural rhythm.
:36:21. > :36:26.You are half-way there. Do you think? Yes. Bruno thought so as
:36:26. > :36:34.well. All the 14 contestants, it is revealed who they are dancing with.
:36:34. > :36:42.What would you want if you were dancing this time? Oh, wow! Well
:36:42. > :36:45.maybe Anton. Just for a laugh, just for a giggle. Is he OK, Anton?
:36:45. > :36:53.was blessed to have Matthew. What about if you want to win? If I
:36:53. > :37:00.wanted to win, I would love to go with maybe James. He would be good.
:37:00. > :37:06.Top tips, Alesha I know you have your day job, but
:37:06. > :37:11.you've got to put in the hours. You have to pratise so hard. No more
:37:11. > :37:16.sherry. Go out with your partner. How far do you take the
:37:16. > :37:21.socialising? You have to dance so close! Get to know each other. You
:37:21. > :37:27.have to spend more time with them than anyone you've had to spend
:37:27. > :37:32.time with in your life. You say smile. The blagging smile. The
:37:32. > :37:37."I've got it wrong, but you don't know "smile.
:37:37. > :37:42.The steps go. You can't remember anything. You black out. You have
:37:42. > :37:48.to learn to trust your partner. Don't count out loud? Never, ever.
:37:48. > :37:54.Ann Widdecombe used to do that all the time.
:37:54. > :37:58.Chris Hollins used to do it. Count out loud! What about going on a
:37:58. > :38:03.nationwide tour to ask as many people to vote for you as possible?
:38:03. > :38:12.Or bribe. Get some money involved. Enjoy every moment. It will change
:38:12. > :38:22.your life. Honestly! I know you watch The One Show, which we are
:38:22. > :38:32.grateful for. Do you keep up with Strictly? My wife loves Anton.
:38:32. > :38:32.
:38:32. > :38:41.Everyone does. Her wish is to be the -- do the waltz with him.
:38:41. > :38:48.you do Strictly, Mr Moore? Would I? You're joking!
:38:48. > :38:53.Pink suits you though. I have about as much rhythm as that
:38:53. > :39:00.phoney looking Martini. This is straight down the middle. You get
:39:00. > :39:06.supporters go along for all the different dances. Would you come
:39:06. > :39:11.along with your week and support Of course. We love the show. As you
:39:11. > :39:15.are a Swansea girl.... That would be lovely! It is about to get more
:39:15. > :39:21.lovely. We have a viewer here tonight, Alesha, who would love to
:39:21. > :39:25.share some moves with you. He is Alan Bates, from Eltham. He is 86.
:39:25. > :39:31.He has always loved ballroom dancing. Since he lost his dear
:39:31. > :39:40.wife he has taken it up as a hobby. Will you do this Alesha? Have a
:39:40. > :39:48.jig? Alesha and Alan Bates, here we go.
:39:48. > :39:58.Oh, bless you! Don't try and do anything fancy
:39:58. > :40:03.
:40:03. > :40:09.APPLAUSE Now nobody, no man in Britain, the
:40:09. > :40:14.world is wearing a wider smile than him at the moment! 100 years ago
:40:14. > :40:21.was a turning point in the history of communications. Lucy Siegle has
:40:21. > :40:23.found out more. Here is her story. Mobile phones and video messages
:40:23. > :40:29.make communications instantaneous across the world. 100 years ago,
:40:29. > :40:33.the best way to keep in touch was by good, old fashioned mail. The
:40:33. > :40:38.general Post Office used ships, trains and horses to transport mail.
:40:38. > :40:44.The service in the UK was surprisingly swift. Overseas,
:40:44. > :40:48.deliveries could take days or even months. A bold enterprise here at
:40:48. > :40:52.Hendon changed all of that, when the first scheduled air mail
:40:52. > :40:57.service took off from here, travelling just a short hop to
:40:57. > :41:04.Windsor. It was organised to celebrate the coronation of King
:41:04. > :41:11.George V. This flight took place on 9th September, 1911. Exactly a
:41:11. > :41:16.century ago today. The Georgian era had started. This was going to be
:41:16. > :41:22.exciting. The a serving officer got the idea of an air mail service.
:41:22. > :41:28.Everything should have been fine. The law said the post had to pay
:41:28. > :41:31.for it. An envelope was a penny. They came one the idea of an
:41:31. > :41:38.illustrated card and charged six pence. It does not sound much. If
:41:38. > :41:42.you take it to average wages, it becomes more like �20. Wow, this
:41:42. > :41:48.was expensive! This is an original? This was sent and if you look at
:41:48. > :41:54.the message. "What do you think of this as a way to waste your money?"
:41:55. > :42:02.This is a copy of the letter sent by suffragettes, which said
:42:02. > :42:08."remember vote for women in 1912." Bad weather almost forced the Post
:42:08. > :42:16.Office to abandon the event. When the plane took off, from about
:42:16. > :42:21.here, the crowd cheered and sang Royal Britannia.
:42:21. > :42:30.The pilots who embarked on these flights took their lives in their
:42:30. > :42:35.hands. This plane, made from wood, piano wood and covered in fabric is
:42:35. > :42:39.flimsy. If it got caught in the wind it was virtually out of
:42:39. > :42:44.control. Air pioneers did not have a very long life. Many of them
:42:44. > :42:49.didn't even last a few years. Guided by only a map from that
:42:49. > :42:55.morning's telegraph, he took off on the 21-mile journey from Hendon.
:42:55. > :43:00.When he reached Windsor, he overshot the castle and the
:43:00. > :43:04.awaiting crowds. He landed safely. Others were not so lucky. One of
:43:04. > :43:09.the pilots. He went up 40 feet in the air and came down again. He
:43:09. > :43:16.broke both his legs. Even with all the things going wrong, they made
:43:16. > :43:20.nearly �1,000 for the King Edward Hospital in Windsor. We went in the
:43:20. > :43:25.history books as the first nation to have air mail. Seven years later
:43:25. > :43:31.air mail took off with the first non-stop flight across the Atlantic.
:43:31. > :43:35.Now some of the UK's most advanced mail operations take place a short
:43:35. > :43:41.place away from the landing spot in Windsor. Today, every letter
:43:41. > :43:51.leaving the country passes through here. This is Royal Mail's
:43:51. > :43:52.
:43:52. > :43:57.1 million items a day are despatched across the world. 100
:43:57. > :44:00.years ago, events here at Hendon paved the way through a global air
:44:00. > :44:04.mail service which was to revolutionise international
:44:04. > :44:11.communications. Bringing people closer to their loved ones of all
:44:11. > :44:16.across the world. Time to go back to Angela
:44:16. > :44:21.Moneypenny Ripon. Have you found your man, David Walliams?
:44:21. > :44:25.I have found him. You are such a star, you got out freezing and
:44:25. > :44:30.exhausted and yet you went over to say hello to all those people.
:44:30. > :44:33.Everyone was waving at me so I thought I should wave back. But I
:44:33. > :44:38.feel like the Pope, because all I do is wave that people these days.
:44:38. > :44:41.I hope it does not go to my head. You gave us a fright a couple of
:44:41. > :44:47.days ago when you got so ill. Was there ever a moment when you
:44:47. > :44:50.thought, I cannot do this? thought, maybe I can't do this
:44:50. > :44:54.today. The thing about this challenge is that it is a journey,
:44:54. > :45:00.rather than a race. I just thought, I have to finish. I thought I would
:45:00. > :45:02.have to have a day out of the water but I soldiered on. My speed went
:45:03. > :45:07.down and damn about 10 miles behind schedule but I think people can
:45:08. > :45:14.forgive me, as long as they get to London eventually. Darling, they
:45:14. > :45:21.can forgive you anything. Tell me what this is doing to your body?
:45:21. > :45:26.is painful in my neck, back and shoulders. I am suffering a little
:45:26. > :45:30.bit physically, but it is an amazing challenge. The crowd, the
:45:30. > :45:34.generosity of the public has kept me going. Not only do you have
:45:34. > :45:40.friends and supporters on the bank here, but you also have a huge
:45:40. > :45:45.supporter in the studio. Roger Moore is there. I know he is
:45:45. > :45:54.desperate to talk to you and I think he can hear you. I can hear
:45:55. > :46:04.you. Hello, David. It is Roger Moore. I used to be an actor.
:46:04. > :46:12.wouldn't go that far! I am not going to crawl to you. But
:46:12. > :46:20.congratulations. I love you so much, Sir Roger. I am worried about your
:46:20. > :46:27.health. Am I a real life James Bond? You are braver. I would never
:46:27. > :46:31.get my feet wet. Do you think they will make me the next James Bond?
:46:31. > :46:37.Do you think they could have a really camp James Bond. I mean,
:46:37. > :46:41.they had won with you, but another one.
:46:41. > :46:49.David, you are a star, and thank you for spending so much time with
:46:49. > :46:57.us. Back to the studio. David, of course, is swimming the Thames to
:46:57. > :47:07.raise money for Sport Relief. Here are the details. To support David,
:47:07. > :47:12.
:47:12. > :47:22.make a donation to Sport Relief the lives of poor and vulnerable
:47:22. > :47:38.
:47:38. > :47:44.people throughout the world and on �459,751 has been raised so far.
:47:44. > :47:51.Well done, congratulations. If you are in spiced to swim in the Thames,
:47:51. > :47:58.do not, because it is dangerous. You will get Thames tummy. Who is
:47:58. > :48:07.this? In 1939, in her MG. I was taught to drive by my husband, says
:48:07. > :48:13.Gloria. You look fantastic. Do you want to do yours, Roger? I am 12
:48:13. > :48:23.and this is my Mini, which my dad restored for me, from MLA. This one
:48:23. > :48:31.looks like Tom Cruise, on the bonnet. This is Raymond. This is me
:48:31. > :48:37.and my friend with my first car. It is a Fiat. Finally, look at that.
:48:37. > :48:46.That is the first car that you want. Tony from harried it. Very proud of
:48:46. > :48:51.his car. Far from Harrogate. This is from Tony in Manchester. 1933
:48:51. > :48:58.Austin seven saloon, bought for �12.10 shillings. I like the fact
:48:58. > :49:02.that the men put what they paid for the car. Coming up, the alternative
:49:02. > :49:06.car show. We will be finding out why these cars hold a special place
:49:06. > :49:10.in their owners Hearts. Particularly the yellow one at the

:49:15. > :49:21.flies this week for Jamie Crawford. He has been on a quest to capture
:49:21. > :49:26.the perfect wildlife snap. Tonight, things get hairy.
:49:26. > :49:32.The subject of today's photograph is this -- the fastest land mammal
:49:32. > :49:36.in Britain. Their hair. At around 40 mph, it is going to be that -- a
:49:36. > :49:43.pretty tricky photograph. That is why I have come to practise on a
:49:43. > :49:50.fake one. They use their long and powerful legs to escape predators
:49:50. > :49:56.at breakneck speed. So I am in need of an expert in taking pictures of
:49:56. > :50:01.very fast things. Don't start taking pictures when it is in the
:50:01. > :50:07.right position because by the time you do, it has gone out of frame.
:50:07. > :50:11.Robert specialises in a high-speed wildlife. Follow it, nice and
:50:11. > :50:21.smoothly. Our cameras are set to rapid-fire, to give us the best
:50:21. > :50:25.
:50:25. > :50:33.chance of getting in focus and in frame. Or not! I got half of it.
:50:33. > :50:40.But after 10 minutes, I am starting to get my eye in. Let's have a look.
:50:40. > :50:42.I am actually pretty chuffed with mine. That is perfect. All of this
:50:43. > :50:47.practice has been fantastic but tomorrow it is not going to be so
:50:47. > :50:51.easy, because wild hares do not run around tracks like this. They zig-
:50:51. > :51:01.zagged all over the countryside, and in the first place I have to
:51:01. > :51:02.
:51:02. > :51:05.find them. It is 6am and we are in Hertfordshire, somewhere, with
:51:05. > :51:11.Peter Thomson from the game and Wildlife Conservation Trust, for
:51:11. > :51:14.some tips on getting close to wild hares. You have to first of will
:51:14. > :51:19.take into account wind direction, because obviously they can sense
:51:19. > :51:23.you. They have a little dugout in the ground, and they lie in those.
:51:23. > :51:26.They virtually become invisible. But if you can spot one and slowly
:51:26. > :51:31.move up on it, they will stay put hoping that you're not going to see
:51:31. > :51:37.them. Conditions are not exactly ideal, but I am not prepared to let
:51:37. > :51:43.a little bit of mist get between me and my shot. It is difficult to see,
:51:43. > :51:48.but there is one just snuggled down in the grass, about 30 yards over
:51:48. > :51:55.there towards the track. I am going to sneak it down. I will see if I
:51:55. > :51:59.can get close enough for a photo. Not noticing there is one just 20
:51:59. > :52:05.metres behind me, I stealthily stayed close to the ground and
:52:05. > :52:12.prepared to take my very first shot. Except, what I am stalking is not a
:52:12. > :52:17.wild hair. It is good practice, sneaking up incredibly quietly on a
:52:17. > :52:25.little patch of mud, but it is not a hair. It is still there,
:52:25. > :52:30.remarkably. Time for Plan B. Rather than stalking them, we are going to
:52:30. > :52:35.sit still and hope that they come to us. This hedgerow should give
:52:35. > :52:40.ultimate camouflage. They are normally solitary, but during
:52:40. > :52:50.breeding season they are supposedly out en masse, which is when the
:52:50. > :52:52.
:52:52. > :52:56.famous boxing happens. Something I have never seen before. As they
:52:56. > :53:04.become more active, they move closer towards us, and I finally
:53:04. > :53:09.put my training into practice. Wow! Often thought to be between
:53:09. > :53:16.competing males, boxing is actually a female playing hard to get. This
:53:16. > :53:26.is unbelievable. They are everywhere. And just when we
:53:26. > :53:28.
:53:28. > :53:38.thought we could not get any closer, he is so close I can almost touch
:53:38. > :53:43.
:53:43. > :53:49.Wow! That is a lovely perspective. Action photographs are so good.
:53:49. > :53:56.That is lovely. Your pictures are great. What started as a very
:53:56. > :54:00.challenging photographic exercise ended up as a great success.
:54:00. > :54:07.Thank you to Jamie. Time now for the One Show car show. First, this
:54:07. > :54:16.category, the car with the most... This is the car, and who is the
:54:16. > :54:22.driver? Your name? Roger Moore, Brett Sinclair, Bond. Why is this
:54:22. > :54:30.car so special to you? I drove it in The Persuaders. Were you really
:54:30. > :54:36.driving? Of course. Did you take it home with you? Yes, I did take it
:54:37. > :54:41.home with me. Did you want to keep it and never take it back? Years.
:54:41. > :54:51.Who is that in the passenger seat? I picked her up and said, where
:54:51. > :54:55.would you like to go, darling. have one. Now, the second car in
:54:55. > :55:01.the One Show car show. I have the rosette for the car with the best
:55:01. > :55:09.delivery. This is quite a story. am Clare, and this is a Renault
:55:09. > :55:13.Espace. This is Emily, and your husband, Andrew. Emily had her
:55:13. > :55:19.first ride in this car very early. What happened? We did not make it
:55:19. > :55:23.to hospital and we delivered her in the car. You were in a pub car park.
:55:23. > :55:30.What happened? We got stuck in traffic, and we did not get near
:55:30. > :55:40.the hospital, so we had to stop and get her delivered. So you were the
:55:40. > :55:40.
:55:40. > :55:46.midwife? I tried to be. But you were OK? She is my third. Can I say
:55:46. > :55:51.hello to my others? Like I said, she is here, wonderful and it was
:55:52. > :55:57.fine. She loves the microphone. You get the result for the car with the
:55:57. > :56:04.best delivery. All right, category number three, the car that you
:56:04. > :56:08.would fall in love with. It is the real love bogey. What is it? I am
:56:08. > :56:14.Jenny, and I bought the speed for MG and drove her for 30 years and
:56:14. > :56:20.had to sell her in 2002 because of knee problems. You went to buy the
:56:20. > :56:24.car and you got the girl. What happened? I purchased the car and I
:56:24. > :56:28.wanted to trace the original owner. I found the lady in France, I went
:56:28. > :56:35.over to Normandy, we met and fell in love and I married her on 16th
:56:35. > :56:39.April this year. And you got your car back. When you're looking for a
:56:39. > :56:46.car, it is all about the service history. Which had the best service
:56:46. > :56:52.history, the Lady or the car? lady. Everything was good to go?
:56:52. > :56:56.She was in good working order. And the final car, the colour of
:56:56. > :57:02.your dreams. James, what is this lovely motor and why is it your
:57:02. > :57:06.labour of love? Because at nine years old, in 2001, I saw the film
:57:06. > :57:11.Gone in 60 seconds, featuring Nicholas Cage, and this is the hero
:57:11. > :57:17.car from the film. It has taken 11 years and over 2000 hours to
:57:17. > :57:24.realise my dream of owning this car. How much did you pay for her
:57:24. > :57:27.originally? Originally, about �8,000, but it was a scrap car. It
:57:27. > :57:36.was completely taken apart, completely restored and put back
:57:36. > :57:41.together. And is she a girl magnet? Apparently not a. I do not believe
:57:41. > :57:46.that for a second. The car of your dreams. Well done. That is it for
:57:46. > :57:53.tonight. Thank you to our viewers celebrating their cars with us.
:57:53. > :57:57.can join them tomorrow at 6:10pm for Strictly Come Dancing. They
:57:58. > :58:05.will find out who their partner is. It is the start of the big show,
:58:05. > :58:11.all the way to Christmas. Thank you to Roger. Keep dancing!
