0:00:15 > 0:00:17Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker.

0:00:17 > 0:00:18And Alex Jones.

0:00:18 > 0:00:28I'm dressed like this because it's a very special night.

0:00:28 > 0:00:32Because you're having a change of image!

0:00:32 > 0:00:34We are setting off on our 500

0:00:34 > 0:00:35mile Ride To The Clyde,

0:00:35 > 0:00:43live from the studio at the end of the show.

0:00:43 > 0:00:45The whole Team Rickshaw are here, nervously waiting to find

0:00:45 > 0:00:49out who will be the first to take to the saddle.

0:00:49 > 0:00:52We've got the yellow carpet rolled out, the crowds are here with Pudsey

0:00:52 > 0:00:57ready to wave them off.

0:00:57 > 0:01:03It will be an epic start.

0:01:03 > 0:01:06Yes, they are about to embark on their chariot to face a journey

0:01:06 > 0:01:07of Olympic proportions,

0:01:07 > 0:01:10which sounds just like a story taken out of our guest's new book

0:01:10 > 0:01:11about Ancient Greece.

0:01:11 > 0:01:13And he's a bit of a Greek God himself.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16He's got the vast knowledge of Apollo.The imposing stature of

0:01:16 > 0:01:22Adonis.The booming voice of Hermes. His Achilles' heel is fine, but he

0:01:22 > 0:01:29has broken his toe - it's Stephen Fry! It's a shame, because we were

0:01:29 > 0:01:35going to ask you to do the first leg of the rickshaw ride.My toe looks

0:01:35 > 0:01:42like an overripe aubergine.What happened?It is easy to do, I was in

0:01:42 > 0:01:52my stocking defeat, I mean in socks, not stockings.That was an image --

0:01:52 > 0:02:01my stockinged feet.I have had so much advice from people. Some people

0:02:01 > 0:02:05tell you to keep it cold, then the next Tweet tells you to do something

0:02:05 > 0:02:14hot. And if I get the wrong one, I make it worse. They are strapped

0:02:14 > 0:02:20together.Strapped to the one next. And coming from Norfolk...You have

0:02:20 > 0:02:30webbed toes!Which is handy for swimming. We also have to say good

0:02:30 > 0:02:33luck to everyone from Northern Ireland in their World Cup

0:02:33 > 0:02:42qualifying match.In our first film, we're talking about parking.

0:02:42 > 0:02:48I'm going on a road trip to take a man who took on one of the biggest

0:02:48 > 0:02:53Private parking firms in the business, a company that boasts a

0:02:53 > 0:02:5690% win rate in court, but not against this guy. It helps that he

0:02:56 > 0:03:04does happen to be leading human rights lawyer Nick Bowen. Hi, Nick.

0:03:04 > 0:03:10Hi.Tell me what was happening in your case?I was driving down the

0:03:10 > 0:03:14Mfork, I was tired, pulled into a service station, fell asleep, woke

0:03:14 > 0:03:19up two and a half hours later, and some months later, I was bombarded

0:03:19 > 0:03:25with nasty letters.As it was the middle of the night and the car park

0:03:25 > 0:03:29was empty, Nick says he didn't realise he had to pay for the

0:03:29 > 0:03:35overstay.I was exhausted, may well have had a crash. It is unfair, when

0:03:35 > 0:03:41there appears to be a compelling public interest in road safety.

0:03:41 > 0:03:46Nick's health and safety concerns were the basis of his legal

0:03:46 > 0:03:49challenge against paying the charge. He did not even appeal that charge

0:03:49 > 0:03:55but waited for the company to take him to court. In August, a judge

0:03:55 > 0:04:02struck out the case, and instead, it was the firm that had to pay out all

0:04:02 > 0:04:06of Nick's court costs.What I have learned is that even though they

0:04:06 > 0:04:11started with great resolve, if you stick with it, they crumble.The

0:04:11 > 0:04:14spotlight Nick has placed on questionable charges comes at a time

0:04:14 > 0:04:23when private parking firms bought more than 1.5 million motorists'

0:04:23 > 0:04:32details from the DVLA to chase them for infringements. Many drivers have

0:04:32 > 0:04:40asked Nick for his help. We have workers, like nurses, on long

0:04:40 > 0:04:45shifts, parking up the rest.The general theme is that people stop to

0:04:45 > 0:04:52stay safe.Another driver to contact Nick is London cabbie Stuart Wilder.

0:04:52 > 0:04:56They are out of control. You can't go anywhere without getting a £100

0:04:56 > 0:05:01fine.Like Nick, Stewart but a charge after taking a break from a

0:05:01 > 0:05:04long drive and oversleeping beyond the free parking limit. He decided

0:05:04 > 0:05:09to take the company to court and is awaiting the outcome.I don't think

0:05:09 > 0:05:13they are taking into account the mitigating circumstances. They are

0:05:13 > 0:05:21after one thing and one thing alone - cash.In a statement, the company

0:05:21 > 0:05:25said that people can rest for two hours for free at car parks, and if

0:05:25 > 0:05:29they overstay that limit, they can pay for the additional time before

0:05:29 > 0:05:33leaving, as displayed on their signs. They pointed out that drivers

0:05:33 > 0:05:37can challenge charges with the independent appeals service. It is

0:05:37 > 0:05:42not just a top human rights lawyer who thinks that parking companies

0:05:42 > 0:05:47are taking people for a ride. A bill was presented to Parliament in July

0:05:47 > 0:05:50calling for an end to self-regulation of the industry and

0:05:50 > 0:05:54unfair charges. In the meantime, will be industry at least listen to

0:05:54 > 0:05:59Nick's concerns? We are on our way to the group to set standards for

0:05:59 > 0:06:02the parking industry, the British parking Association, and as luck

0:06:02 > 0:06:07would have it, they are holding their annual conference right here

0:06:07 > 0:06:13in London today. But there is one small problem: Nick, we were hoping

0:06:13 > 0:06:18to get our cameras inside today, but they won't let us in.I don't know

0:06:18 > 0:06:22what to say. I just wanted to ask a simple question about being treated

0:06:22 > 0:06:29really unfairly.In a statement, the British Parking Association said

0:06:29 > 0:06:33that the companies managing car parks are doing so on behalf of

0:06:33 > 0:06:41landowners and applying their rules. Steve Gooding is director of the RAC

0:06:41 > 0:06:49foundation.I would be much happier if the BP eight... Any good business

0:06:49 > 0:06:54knows that its complaints about your business that tell you where you

0:06:54 > 0:06:59need to make changes.Why we are not all legal experts like Nick, it

0:06:59 > 0:07:02might well be worth fighting your corner against what you think is an

0:07:02 > 0:07:05unfair charge. Yellow rag if you think you're being treated unfairly,

0:07:05 > 0:07:13fight them. It is time for the little man to fight back, really.

0:07:13 > 0:07:17Nick joins us now. This parking company is a business and they've

0:07:17 > 0:07:21got to make money, so they are charging by the hour, or by the

0:07:21 > 0:07:28period you are parking for, and they are ready to make money. It is

0:07:28 > 0:07:34legitimate to charge people --it is legitimate to charge people in the

0:07:34 > 0:07:38day, which has been tested by the courts and been found to be fair.

0:07:38 > 0:07:43But what happened to me was I fell asleep, almost, on the motorway,

0:07:43 > 0:07:46stopped, which I thought was sensible, and I end up being pursued

0:07:46 > 0:07:51by debt collectors and parking companies for overstaying when I

0:07:51 > 0:07:54genuinely had absolutely no idea that there was such a thing as

0:07:54 > 0:07:59charging at night was sleeping in a safe space.So you didn't realise?

0:07:59 > 0:08:09No.Did they give you the option to pay afterwards?That is only if you

0:08:09 > 0:08:13get out of the car, exhausted, and look at the small type. It just

0:08:13 > 0:08:17wasn't signposted. The whole thing was a bit of a trap. I just wasn't

0:08:17 > 0:08:21prepared to give up when they pursued me.There is a bill going

0:08:21 > 0:08:27through Parliament. Nothing to do with you. What do they hope to

0:08:27 > 0:08:34achieve, then?There is seen to be a hero MP called Greg Knight who is

0:08:34 > 0:08:39backing a private member's Bill, second reading in February or March,

0:08:39 > 0:08:43to regulate the whole industry and try to bring in a statutory code of

0:08:43 > 0:08:47practice which will make them behave fairly. Since this happened to me, I

0:08:47 > 0:08:50am flooded with e-mails all the time.You'll have a few more after

0:08:50 > 0:08:56tonight!Please, no. I'm not really a parking lawyer, but I just find

0:08:56 > 0:09:02myself... The one thing that unites the nation seemingly is a lack of

0:09:02 > 0:09:06confidence, or distrust, in the private parking.On the motorway,

0:09:06 > 0:09:10you don't have to drive far before you see one of those signs

0:09:10 > 0:09:16encouraging you to take a break. Obviously, you would be angry if

0:09:16 > 0:09:20someone came and parked in your driveway, so it has to be regulated,

0:09:20 > 0:09:24and fairly, and it isn't, and that is what this bill is going to

0:09:24 > 0:09:28achieve. It is all about money, and massive business. The RAC have

0:09:28 > 0:09:39looked at this, crunch the figures, and they estimate that are coming on

0:09:39 > 0:09:44for 2017-18, sorry, 2018-19, on current estimates, there will be 10

0:09:44 > 0:09:49million data releases from the DVLA. It used to be 4 million, 7 million

0:09:49 > 0:09:52this year, then 10 million, which equates to around £1 billion of

0:09:52 > 0:09:58income. Those are RAC figures. Not mine. The parking companies pay the

0:09:58 > 0:10:08DVLA for the details of the driver, and it is £2 50 a go, so that is 16

0:10:08 > 0:10:12million - 25 million to the DVLA. It is finance driven. They are trying

0:10:12 > 0:10:16to regulate it to slow it down. There are 16,000 tickets a day being

0:10:16 > 0:10:23issued.On that note, we will have to park at there. We need to talk to

0:10:23 > 0:10:30Stephen.While parking charges is an issue that gets most of us fired up,

0:10:30 > 0:10:33there is a subject Stephen can't help coming back to - ancient

0:10:33 > 0:10:40Greece.What colour was this guy a nation Greece? How did the ancient

0:10:40 > 0:10:45Greeks cover up the naughty bits on their statues? To the ancient

0:10:45 > 0:10:52Greeks, a gymnasium was a place to get naked. Sophocles and Socrates,

0:10:52 > 0:10:55the ancient Greeks that you and I talk about everyday. They should

0:10:55 > 0:10:59have told you that it was ancient Greece, and I did. The ancient

0:10:59 > 0:11:12Greeks didn't call anything balloon. -- blue. They went commando. I

0:11:12 > 0:11:15hadn't realised how much I talked about the ancient Greeks.This is

0:11:15 > 0:11:19something you have loved since you were a young boy, isn't it?It

0:11:19 > 0:11:24really is, and I was lucky, I guess I had good teachers I and was of a

0:11:24 > 0:11:27generation and a type that had what used to be called a classical

0:11:27 > 0:11:32education, and I know it strikes so much fear into people's hearts. They

0:11:32 > 0:11:39think of ancient Greek civilisation and there is chalk dust and a

0:11:39 > 0:11:47Victorian schoolmaster with whiskers and a cane. The stories are so full

0:11:47 > 0:11:50of wit and charm, and I'm convinced they are the best stories ever told

0:11:50 > 0:11:57about us, and they live and they are so fantastic.In your eyes, they are

0:11:57 > 0:12:01not highbrow?Absolutely not intellectual or academic, they are

0:12:01 > 0:12:07told for us, for children, adults, old people, people of all cultures.

0:12:07 > 0:12:11They are deep in the language we talk about - things being

0:12:11 > 0:12:19hermetically sealed, or an Oedipus complex, or the Midas touch, jovial,

0:12:19 > 0:12:23mercurial, all named after the gods. And it is as if every god reflects a

0:12:23 > 0:12:37part of human nature - our wisdom, but also treachery, last, ambition,

0:12:37 > 0:12:40overestimation of ourselves and our abilities, all the faults and

0:12:40 > 0:12:43failings we have gone the Greeks gave their gods as well. But they

0:12:43 > 0:12:46had heroes who want superheroes like the Marvel comic superheroes, much

0:12:46 > 0:12:54more like us. They occasionally had superpowers. A God would give them

0:12:54 > 0:12:58winged sandals or something and they could fly will become invisible or

0:12:58 > 0:13:03something, like Perseus. Essentially, a bit more like Harry

0:13:03 > 0:13:08Potter, the human qualities and the valour.A bit of a naughty edge.

0:13:08 > 0:13:15Yes. I read the audio books as the came out. I would get the manuscript

0:13:15 > 0:13:21and they would do the audio book and I realised, there is this intense

0:13:21 > 0:13:24pleasure in storytelling, not interpreting the story, saying that

0:13:24 > 0:13:31the story means this or that, rather, it is up to the person

0:13:31 > 0:13:36reading to decide what it means, and whether it is inspiring, funny or

0:13:36 > 0:13:40serious. I have tried to tell the story as best I can in the book and

0:13:40 > 0:13:47I hope people enjoy them.A difficult question to you, but your

0:13:47 > 0:13:53favourite story?Favourite god or story?Story.Creation comes into

0:13:53 > 0:13:57it, and I like the creation of mankind, our species. Prometheus,

0:13:57 > 0:14:05this titan is made of clay who became a champion, he stole fire

0:14:05 > 0:14:08from heaven, which the gods didn't want us to have because they didn't

0:14:08 > 0:14:14want us to challenge them. And he was punished, change to the Caucus

0:14:14 > 0:14:20Mountains and his liver pecked out every day, and presumably it grew

0:14:20 > 0:14:26back overnight. At the end of the century, we will be intelligent

0:14:26 > 0:14:29designers of new creatures, just as Prometheus made us. There was no

0:14:29 > 0:14:34question and no one really doubts that the convergence of artificial

0:14:34 > 0:14:37intelligence, robotics, brain machine interfacing and biological

0:14:37 > 0:14:43augmentation, it will bring about new sapience creatures, and the

0:14:43 > 0:14:49question is, do we give them fire? The inner fire of consciousness and

0:14:49 > 0:15:00self-awareness. Or, like Zeus, do we say no? Maybe we create, whether we

0:15:00 > 0:15:03call them robots or artificial devices, but we will face the same

0:15:03 > 0:15:09thing. The internet, I think of it as Pandora's box. She was the first

0:15:09 > 0:15:14woman who was sent down with this box, or a jar in fact, and out came

0:15:14 > 0:15:23everything.It is a good analogy.I thought the internet would break

0:15:23 > 0:15:27down all barriers, and instead, out flew the strolls, abusers, wreckers

0:15:27 > 0:15:39and liars. -- these patrols. The stories just speak to us.

0:15:39 > 0:15:43Well, it rips through as a reader in a font size that is perfect, as

0:15:43 > 0:15:47opposed to small print, which is what we are going to next. Do you

0:15:47 > 0:15:52read the small print when you get a contract?At my age, everything is

0:15:52 > 0:15:59small print!Well, you obviously haven't read the small print on some

0:15:59 > 0:16:03contracts, and maybe you should have. We give every guest the same

0:16:03 > 0:16:13contract before they come on The One Show. Now, there is a little clause,

0:16:13 > 0:16:16clause 16.The contributor agrees to dress as a Greek god, reciting from

0:16:16 > 0:16:21their book for an hour each morning from the fourth plinth in Trafalgar

0:16:21 > 0:16:33Square until Christmas. And I have signed it!Volla!Juice swine! --

0:16:33 > 0:16:38you swine. I think that would be very disturbing for people standing

0:16:38 > 0:16:43under the plinth, looking up.And whilst you clear your diary, here is

0:16:43 > 0:16:46a film about why all of us should be reading our small print more

0:16:46 > 0:16:52carefully. So we have all done it. Whether it

0:16:52 > 0:16:55is applying for car insurance, buying theatre tickets or getting a

0:16:55 > 0:16:59new credit card. Right at the end of the form is the box to confirm that

0:16:59 > 0:17:03we have read the terms and conditions. Let's face it, most of

0:17:03 > 0:17:09us just take it without ever reading a word. But some terms and

0:17:09 > 0:17:15conditions can be as long as a Shakespeare play. So is the small

0:17:15 > 0:17:19print a deliberate attempt to confuse and trick consumers, or

0:17:19 > 0:17:26essential legal jargon that protects both parties? Luke Menzies is a

0:17:26 > 0:17:30lawyer who advises businesses on writing the terms of their

0:17:30 > 0:17:34contracts. You write these terms and conditions. Do you deliberately make

0:17:34 > 0:17:39them as incommensurable as possible? We try not to, but there are

0:17:39 > 0:17:42collection of all the things that have gone wrong, sometimes over many

0:17:42 > 0:17:47centuries, so the lawyers are trying to avoid that happening again. Or if

0:17:47 > 0:17:50it does happen again, everything legally will go the way of the

0:17:50 > 0:17:54company writing it.Do you think that companies use them to

0:17:54 > 0:17:58deliberately hide extra fees, extra Chargers, things you aren't

0:17:58 > 0:18:01expecting?If it is a business that wants to do business on a

0:18:01 > 0:18:04large-scale, they will not want to do that too much because they will

0:18:04 > 0:18:08get a bad reputation.When you buy something and they give you terms

0:18:08 > 0:18:15and conditions, do you read them?I must admit, not very often.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18Especially online, I just tick the box and hope it will be OK. To test

0:18:18 > 0:18:22how bad we are at ignoring the small print, The One Show has come up with

0:18:22 > 0:18:26an experiment. We are tempting customers of a cafe with a free

0:18:26 > 0:18:30drink, cake and other promotions. To receive the offer, they just need to

0:18:30 > 0:18:34sign up. Luke has helped me write some terms and conditions. But we

0:18:34 > 0:18:38have added a clause which says as soon as you sign up, you immediately

0:18:38 > 0:18:44have to start mopping the floor. But anybody notice? With our terms and

0:18:44 > 0:18:47conditions being nearly 2000 words long, will anyone bother to read

0:18:47 > 0:18:50them and spot our unpleasant surprise? And we have read secret

0:18:50 > 0:18:56cameras to catch what happens. Would you like to sign up to our special

0:18:56 > 0:18:59offer? In return for your e-mail address, we will send you a voucher

0:18:59 > 0:19:08for a hot drink and a cake.Oh, yeah.Just pop your details on that.

0:19:08 > 0:19:13Those are long terms and conditions. That is marvellous. I will just get

0:19:13 > 0:19:18the bucket. So, which bit of the floor do you want to start mopping

0:19:18 > 0:19:22first? Did you not read the terms and conditions?No. This is

0:19:22 > 0:19:31dreadful.Very good. You have missed a bit. Do the job properly. Why

0:19:31 > 0:19:36don't you read the terms and conditions?I always assume that it

0:19:36 > 0:19:41will say something along the lines of, they can use my e-mail address,

0:19:41 > 0:19:47which I don't mind.You should always read things before you sign,

0:19:47 > 0:19:57I understand that, but you caught me out. Do you want to mop the floor?

0:19:57 > 0:20:00So in our unscientific experiment, only one person read the small print

0:20:00 > 0:20:08and declined our offer. Are you quite hot on terms and conditions?

0:20:08 > 0:20:17Oh, yeah.But if we don't read them and tick the box, where do we stand?

0:20:17 > 0:20:20Helen fights for consumer rights and is better known as the complaining

0:20:20 > 0:20:29cow. Our terms and conditions legally binding?Well, yes and no.

0:20:29 > 0:20:33When they aren't, it is because it is an unfair contract. So for

0:20:33 > 0:20:36example, if a telecom company said to you that you can't break your

0:20:36 > 0:20:39contract early because it is in our terms and conditions, but you want

0:20:39 > 0:20:42to break it because they are not providing the service you signed up

0:20:42 > 0:20:46for, they are already in breach of the consumer rights act of 2015 by

0:20:46 > 0:20:49not providing services with reasonable care.What about when

0:20:49 > 0:20:55they keep changing the terms and conditions? The banks and credit

0:20:55 > 0:20:58Cards seem to send you a booklet every few months. It is about 50

0:20:58 > 0:21:02pages of nonsense.The government last year took on people's

0:21:02 > 0:21:05complaints about terms and conditions. They promised they would

0:21:05 > 0:21:09do something about it, but have not yet done anything.So it looks like

0:21:09 > 0:21:13until something is done, you do need to read the small print. But it

0:21:13 > 0:21:20would be nice if it were short, plain and simple.Thank you, Alex.

0:21:20 > 0:21:23Well, you saw them at the start of the programme. They are all geared

0:21:23 > 0:21:27up and ready to go. Time is ticking, so let's welcome Ben, Greg, Liv,

0:21:27 > 0:21:41Luke, Sabah and Shona! How does it feel? So comfy. I am loving it. All

0:21:41 > 0:21:50the girls are really jazzy.You all look very relaxed and excited, where

0:21:50 > 0:21:58as you look like the nervous one.To be honest, I am. But we are going to

0:21:58 > 0:22:03have the best time. As soon as we go over the line, everything will be

0:22:03 > 0:22:09all right.Just get started. And you have already started bonding, Sabah?

0:22:09 > 0:22:15Yeah, we all get along very well. Who is your favourite? Don't answer

0:22:15 > 0:22:23that, you are 18! -- you are a team. I asked if it was her first time on

0:22:23 > 0:22:28television and she said no, I have been on multiple times.We saw your

0:22:28 > 0:22:31story last night, Luke, and you were saying to us earlier how interesting

0:22:31 > 0:22:36your training has been for this.I have really enjoyed the past seven

0:22:36 > 0:22:43to ten weeks of training. It has helped my legs get a lot stronger.

0:22:43 > 0:22:46And it is something I plan to do even after the challenge to keep my

0:22:46 > 0:22:53fitness up.Shona, you are heading up to your neck of the woods. That

0:22:53 > 0:22:57is the finish line in Glasgow, a week tomorrow night. Which part are

0:22:57 > 0:23:07you most looking forward to?I am looking forward to going to the

0:23:07 > 0:23:17borders and going to Hawick. One of my friends I work with on the

0:23:17 > 0:23:24Scotland team lives in Hawick, and everybody on the team said that

0:23:24 > 0:23:31nobody knows where Hawick is.Well, it has almost got easier as we have

0:23:31 > 0:23:38come to London. This time, Hawick, Edinburgh and Glasgow are the last

0:23:38 > 0:23:44three stops and I will literally be cliffs to be cycling along. So many

0:23:44 > 0:23:51beautiful landmarks. Who's bad idea was the headband thing? Well, we are

0:23:51 > 0:23:56literally minutes away and we have to get the Banbury. Here is the

0:23:56 > 0:24:02plan. In the next 24 hours, we are going to be covering 81 miles. Here

0:24:02 > 0:24:06is where we are going to be tomorrow if you fancy, are long and

0:24:06 > 0:24:09supporting us. Now is the time for some exciting news, because I can

0:24:09 > 0:24:14now announce the first rider in this year's Rickshaw Challenge. It will

0:24:14 > 0:24:33be... Look, it's you! -- Luke.I am over the moon.Now, not only are the

0:24:33 > 0:24:36teams cycling, but they are also maintaining the ritual tradition of

0:24:36 > 0:24:41performing nerve-wracking speeches at huge events across the country,

0:24:41 > 0:24:44telling people why they have taken on this challenge.Tonight, it is

0:24:44 > 0:24:47great's turn and he had to face a crowd of more than 30,000 people in

0:24:47 > 0:24:56his hometown of Dunfermline.OK, are you ready for the Dunfermline

0:24:56 > 0:25:02fireworks of 2017? When I was on stage, I was nervous because there

0:25:02 > 0:25:07were a lot of people here.But I am excited. These welcome Greg and

0:25:07 > 0:25:15Pudsey, his special guest! Originally, I am from Poland, but I

0:25:15 > 0:25:22think of myself as Scottish. Today, I am happy, but if you had met me

0:25:22 > 0:25:25five years ago, you would have seen a very different person. My dad died

0:25:25 > 0:25:31when I was nine. Things got worse when I moved to Scotland with my

0:25:31 > 0:25:39mum. She neglected me. Didn't cook for me, clothed me properly, and she

0:25:39 > 0:25:43wouldn't even speak to me. I felt trapped and desperate and I couldn't

0:25:43 > 0:25:48see how life could get any better. But one day, I heard about

0:25:48 > 0:25:52basketball group called twilight basketball, supported by Children In

0:25:52 > 0:25:57Need. Going there has changed my life. Eventually, I was fostered by

0:25:57 > 0:26:01a family of a friend I met at basketball. Being with a new family

0:26:01 > 0:26:08made me feel loved. Now, when my life is better, I often think how I

0:26:08 > 0:26:13have been helped and how I want to give something back. That is why I

0:26:13 > 0:26:18am taking part in the Rickshaw Challenge for Children In Need.

0:26:18 > 0:26:22Right now, there are children going to the same things I went through,

0:26:22 > 0:26:33so please give what you can. Thank you.

0:26:41 > 0:26:47And if you would like to support Greg, Team Rickshaw as a Children In

0:26:47 > 0:26:50Need, you can donate by sending a simple text message. Stephen, you

0:26:50 > 0:26:55have the numbers.I do indeed.

0:27:24 > 0:27:29And you can sign up for our virtual rickshaw on the same site, where you

0:27:29 > 0:27:33can use your own pedal power to raise money for Team Rickshaw and

0:27:33 > 0:27:36Children In Need. Tomorrow, Sally Phillips and I will be joined by

0:27:36 > 0:27:41Bradley Walsh in the studio, but it's to officially launch our

0:27:41 > 0:27:47Rickshaw Challenge 2017. Over the next nine days, the team will cycle

0:27:47 > 0:27:53500 miles from here in London all the way it to Glasgow. You know the

0:27:57 > 0:28:06do 500 miles from here to Glasgow. How are you feeling? You're excited.

0:28:06 > 0:28:23It will be incredible.Stephen, any final words?I wish you good luck.
