09/12/2015 The One Show

Hello and welcome to The One Show with Alex Jones And Matt Baker. On

tonight's show we have the very best and worst of entertain am. Sglp we

will start with potentially the best much we will give you the chance to

vote for the BBC Song of the Year award. With the help of some One

Show viewers. At the other end of the scale, while the One Show

Barbershop Quartet. This four will be competing in the World

Championships. How is that going to go? Onto the movie side of things

first. Danger Dad, Andy Kirkpatrick is making a family film inspired by

an iconic movie. As we are talking cinema and song. Let us bring out

two masters of their craft. This is a robbery. Desperate words from a

desperate man. You have to love those mash-ups.

Please welcome Tim Roth and Placido Domingo.

APPLAUSE. What a sofa tonight. Welcome both. Great to have you.

Between you, you have flown 6,500 to be with us tonight. Thank you very

much. We are honoured. All good. Was it chicken or beef? What did you go

for? Chicken or beef The inflight meal on the way here? I had

sandwiches. Smart move. I do... My wife has a rule. Never eat the main

thing. The actual thing. Eat around the edges. Really? Yes. I eat all

the bits and piece, neverle actual beef or chicken. I ditch that. Oh.

I'm a PC person. Good for you. All right. Later on Placido will be

joined by French singing superstar, Vincent Niclo. They will be

performing one of the many duets on Placido's new album. Which is

lovely. Singing live. Thank you. Especially last night I was singing

in Valencia. I was singing Macbeth. Were you? Macbeth is very hard.

Yeah. The drama isn't bad. He's so bloody, you know. I tell you, I hope

I have voice today. It's quite a difference. It is. Macbeth and now

to sing a Christmas carol. It is the good part of me. We are relaxed.

Don't worry about any off notes. Tim might join in No problem. I have

your back. We are moving on to driving. 0mph is the speed lip l

limit on British roads. Should 70 be the upper age limit for driving.

With recent calls for the over 70s to have compulsory retesting every

three years, John Sergeant and Jennie Bond have volunteered to put

their driving skills to the test. Fasten your seatbelts this is going

to be a bumpy ride. Yeah. I'm one of the 4.3 million drivers in the UK

who are over the age of 70. According to research, our reaction

times are 22% slower, apparently increasing our chances of being

involved in an accident. I'm not convinced that's the case. Yes, we

are slower in our reactions, but we're more cautious, not like those

crazy youngsters! The road safety organisation BRAKE say it is's the

under-25s who have a disproportionately high number of

serious accidents. Should us oldies have our driving skills reassessed?

The can county of Hampshire thinks we ought to. Jennie Bond is 65, I'm

71, we are putting our driving to the test. Hello. Nice to see you.

This is a horrible test? I know. I'm nervous about it. As you got older

have you found anything trickier in driving? No. At night-time in

someone in dark clothes rushes across the road I think - I did not

see them. People can get their sight tested and their reactions. They can

signup for a full driving assessment. Currently, when you get

to 70 you have to reapply for your licence every three years there. Is

no test. You simply confirm in writing that you are fit to drive.

This business of you self-sign you are fit to drive much can you do

that until you can't see the paper you are writing on. Do you have an

age in which you might consider - No. I have a complete mental block

on that. Me too. We will have our knowledge of the Highway Code

tested. It's been a while since I looked at the copy. What is the

stopping distance for a are car travelling at 30mph. We are doing

OK. Jennie is giving me most of the answers. We are struggling to get

two or three out of seven, I would say. Yes. It's the classroom

atmosphere. I feel a bit tense. 2035 the number 70s on the road is set to

double to over nine million. If we don't do right they say we should be

off the road. I won't agree with that. I am not nervous. We will find

out how we've done later. First, some more tests. You have done the

eye test. I have. I think people might be a little bit scared to have

tests like this because you might suddenly be told - you can't drive

any more. Which would be terrified, wouldn't it? It certainly would. You

have to know, haven't What do you you. Think about the idea of people

doing these tests? I have done the driver awareness. I found it

extremely helpful. I have to do the the test. How do you think I will

get on? I think you will pass with flying colours. She doesn't look

could con convinced? Are older drivers a risk? Gradual changes take

place and really the ability to deal with complex situations. For

example, right turns across busy roads. Right turns. Do you do right

turns? I do. That is why it's important to get the skills up

again. That's right. Yeah. Time for Graham to put our driving under the

spotlight and see if it's up to scratch. Shall I start? Start the

engine when you are ready. Among the things Graham is assessing is our

awareness of others on the road. If this lorry broke down here, would

you be able to get round him. You think I'm too close to him? I was

perhaps a little too close. There is our use of mirrors. Sometimes the

left mirror is not always being checked as much as it could. Our

reactions? Stop. Thank you very much. How was that? Drive off when

you are ready. Good reactions there. It's my turn. The pressure is on.

What happens if you fail me? Can I lose my licence? No. This is not a

test. Completely confidential. Just advice. I nearly hit that car. We

can't get out. You have a few problems here. If I fail it will be

a disaster. These things happen After briefly mount sometimes.

Mounting the kerb, John partly blocks a keep clear zone. After his

early hiccups John completes the assessment without further incident.

The good news is we got five out of seven on the Highway Code. While

Graham has no concerns about my driving, he would like a quiet word

with you, John. Left is here. Graham and John are with us now. Graham,

it's time to spill the beans then. What did you need to tell John?

Well, actually John showed me a really good drive. There were one or

two - There you are. Let us focus on the hairy moments? Let us focus on

the good bits. Getting in the keep clear box and blocking that van was

a problem. These things can be resolved. Overis all I felt safe

with him. John, in general, was it useful? What did you take away from

it would you advice going on this? Was useful was that it was friendly.

You didn't feel it's a test that is going to ruin your life. That's

important. I think the other thing is that there were small things.

Like, what do you do with all these cyclists. Check the left-wing

mirror. Which many people forget to do. Things like that which you get

into the habit of not doing that. You really ought to because of

course the cyclists are coming up often very quickly on your inside.

It may seem, oh, do I have to do? I must say, I thought it was helpful.

For lots of people, particularly those who are nervous and think - I

wonder if I should be driving? That's a paradox. Perhaps you

shouldn't be driving. Graham might say, you are doing well. He said

that about me. You did well, John. I'm walking on air. Lots of people

at home, Graham, may have a member of the family who they are a little

bit concerned about and may think that they should consider stopping

driving. It is a hard subject to broach, isn't it, somebody losing

their independence. How is the best way to raise it? It's a difficult

subject. If you tell a person who feels they are a good driver that

they shouldn't be driving any more it's a massive shock to them thechl

are not likely to listen. You introduce it gently. You might bring

in a few little examples about - why did that person honk the horn there?

It seems to be happening more regularly. You seem to be getting

caught out by situations and reacting suddenly more so than you

used to do. You are getting them used to the fact that their skills

are not as sharp as they once were. That's much more easier to take.

Placido, you are 74, aren't you? Do you - I'm sure you have a show fair,

do you drive often? Do you like to drive? Yes, I like to drive. I like

to drive when I'm relaxed, you know. When I don't have to be in a hurry.

But I drive quite a lot in New York, in Los Angeles and when

I'm I would like to find more time. Once I was in Monte Carlo they gave

me a driving licence, I couldn't understand why because it was given

to to me about maybe 20 years agricultural, something. More. They

said it's good until the 21st January of - wait a moment, 2011. I

said - why? I realised that 2011 was my 70th birthday. There you go. I

don't understand how can they give you a licence for 20 years. But they

say - when you are 70 you cannot have that licence any more. One

group who are not letting age slow them down are the residents of

Shenley Wood Retirement Village in Milton Keynes who, I'm off to go and

meet now. Off you go. Every year they star in a charity calendar and

last year the theme was classic films. June was a film you know

well, Tim. Reservoir Dogs. They look pretty good, don't they. Looking

snappy. They are looking really snappy. This year they have a brand

new theme. Matt let us find out what that is. They look snappy. This is a

musical theme. If you don't mind we veil your months. We will have a

look inside. We have everything here from the the Spice Girls through to

Queen. Look at Queen, for goodness sake. We are have Kiss. We have

Wham. Ted, you are at the back, my friend. Whose idea was this? Where

did it come from? The concept was put forward by one of our residents

in our village called Peter Mercer. It was taken up by the Village

Entanmentes Manager. Our first calendar was so successful we

produced the second one. The imagesages are brilliant. Which one

of Kiss are you here? This one. That is you down there. Tremendous. You

are a wonderful village. It's the village calendar. I'm surprised you

haven't re-enacted this group. # Young men... #

It is the Village People. We set up a photo studio just outside the One

Show studio. You will zip across there now. Re-enact this famous

scene here and we will see how you get on at the end of the show. Let

us have a round of applause for the residents of Shenley Wood Retirement

Village. Good luck with it all. Tremendous. Looking forward to

seeing the results later. Tomorrow night the BBC's very own music

if you are watching on demand, and you can see

who wins tomorrow night, Having heard that, what is your

opinion on modern pop music? The youth is so strong, I think, a

fantastic generation. The pop music is fantastic. I like it, I like

something that says something. Sometimes it is only the rhythm,

which can be wonderful, beautiful rhythm, but they do not say

anything. I think it has to be something, unfortunately for us, for

the classic music, we have two fight. Music should be mandatory in

schools. It is a nice way to teach the children. -- we have to fight. A

whole other story. They do not need to know that it is classical music.

It is intelligent, writers, they can come with something that the

children will grow up with. So they have the chance to know there is

something else. Talking of intelligent writing, moving to your

recent project... a western called "The Hateful

Eight". We know Tarantino doesn't

follow the rules, so we guess this is not a sequel

to The Magnificent Seven? Two bounty hunters are on the road,

they are in the snow, in the Nant tins of Wyoming, there is a blizzard

chasing them. -- in the mountains of Wyoming. One of them has a prisoner

chained to his wrist, the other is... Be careful what you wish for!

For people and up in a stagecoach, they hide out from the blizzard in a

haberdashery, in the mountains, which is where everything unravels.

And the onion is peeled back. It is like Reservoir Dogs but kind of like

a Western. Jennifer Jason Leigh, Samuel L. Jackson. Her character is

a monster! Of all of The Hateful eight, she may be the most hateful!

You are all incredibly talented, but what a group of people to have in

one place at one time, what is that like, to be a part of that. We

worked on it, we had rehearsed it almost like a play. It felt like a

play, because it was shot on 70 mm, on the big widescreen thing, and we

were in the cabin... We got to hang out, and even when we were not

working, per se, when we were off-camera, we would hang around and

watch each other perform. The conversations that took place, the

downtime, they were extraordinary. It was like a masterclass, every

day. We became very tight, we have a text in groupthink. We are doing

today. Completely ridiculous. What are you taxing Samuel L. Jackson?

That is off the record! LAUGHTER But wherever we are, we keep it

going, it was an unusual group of actors, wonderful. You play a

hangman. Oswaldo Mobray. If the relatives and the loved ones

of the person you murdered were outside of that door, right now, and

after busting down that door, they drag you out into the snow and they

hung you up by the neck, that would be frontier justice. It does not

matter what you do, to get satisfaction from your death, it is

my job. It is not just about big blockbusters for you, you have been

doing low-budget stuff as well, with Chronic, very interesting film... It

is the opposite end of that kind of world. It is about a hospice nurse,

and the patients that he is helping towards their end, and also, it is

about how he has an internal battle, over his youngest son, who is now

deceased. It is a very different animal. You like to keep the two

bubbling together? Yes, you do the stuff for love, that you do because

it is fabulous and for yourself and personal, like Chronic and the

hateful eight, and you do the clap, like... The World Cup movie... That

nonsense! Which was garbage! LAUGHTER

You played Sepp Blatter. You have got to keep a roof over the head of

the family. You have got to get the kids through college, otherwise the

student loan comes... It comes to bite them in the backside! Do you

regret it? Not at all, but he is a monster, I did it for the money,

everything that comes to him... But he seems to be able to skate through

this stuff, extraordinarily. It was one of those things, I had two boys

going into college, and that is that! That is it. You are not really

a fan of Sepp Blatter? Did he forget your name? Forget my name? No, he

did not forget my name, but once, he said... It was some kind of small

problem, not the big problem it was, he was kissing Johan Cruyff and

myself... He said that he wanted us to be in Fifa to be able to control

and see that things were clean. But it was a big thing, in every

newspaper. It never happens... I was thrilled, because since 1982I had

been in every World Cup, always. I'm a really great fan of football. I

had been watching every World Cup, and I said, I would love to be

there, I would love to see how we can help. I had tickets for every

match in that last World Cup, for my children and for me, I didn't go to

a single one, I could not... Such a shame, I had always wanted to go,

when I got the script, I thought, great, Expose on Sepp Blatter, and

then... (!) LAUGHTER I was singing in the concert, in the

World Cup, and tickets, they will always fantastic for me. To

everybody that we were... But we have got to see now. The hateful

eight, in cinemas. And, Chronic, that is out on the 16th of February.

Now we are going to a man has decided to make his own little

family film, danger dad, Andy Kirkpatrick. For this dad, even

holidays have to be extreme, and I should know!

SHOUTING Lean back, lean back, nobody said it

would be easy. Many of you may remember Andy Kirkpatrick, he led me

up the buttress in Utah, Banksy your generosity it raised a staggering

?1.9 million for sport relief, I was in good hand, Andy is one of the

UK's and indeed the world's top climbers. I am not a normal climber,

I don't look like a climber, I looked like a bin man! As a father

of two, he believes that his children, as part of their

upbringing, should be exposed to some of the risks and hardships that

he experiences. We care too much about how they feel... You have got

to give them the space to work out how they feel themselves, and to

show that they are independent. This winter he has taken his 16-year-old

and 13-year-old on a hard-core adventure, ironically, the activity

and when you are inspired by a war film, which Labour will be would

have called on repeat if they stayed at home with their feet up, the

heroes of Telemark! The biggest quality is their ability to thrive

in that environment, an environment which was very hostile. The film is

based on the real-life commando raid by the Norwegian army in the Second

World War, they spent a month ski trekking through the mountains of

Telemark, in the depths of winter, to destroy the factory at the heart

of the atomic process. It is in heroic tale of daring, and it

influenced an entire generation. I want them to have that same sense...

It will be hard but I want them to feel the value of being there. Andy

is going to recreate the spirit of the experience in the wilderness. We

will go out for four days, we have three different places we will camp,

one of them is in a ten, on the snow, you have never slept on snow

before, it should be quite cool(!) -- tent. I don't know how to ski, it

is going to be interesting, it is going to be good to learn. We will

be digging pits, it is quite important that you are not there

just as tourists. I would like to go on a proper skiing holiday, hot

chocolate in a large...! The full proper skiing holiday but obviously

not! Obviously we are the Kirkpatrick family, we have got to

go off to some mountain and do abseiling and skiing and not using

toilets! LAUGHTER Schools out for the Christmas

holidays, some of Ella's friends come to hang out before her big

adventure. It is going to be 30 degrees below freezing, so cold, so

I have got so much specialist gear that has been given to me. Fun

goggles... You are going to looks stunning(!) it is not just Andy who

thinks mixing kids with risky play has its benefits. We grow up with

people around us all of the time, it is good to be exposed to some risk.

Also like, using individual, but we are worrying about ringing up for a

pizza! LAUGHTER They arrive in Norway. They learn to

ski in just two-days. You are supposed nod not to go backwards.

Because they will carry their own food for four days they need to get

to grips with the local cuisine. This looks like reindeer. It's

really good for you. It will give you hoofs. They waste no time in

hitting the mountains. We have to come back alive. We have to come

back friends and successful. No. But in the recertificates order. The

four day loop starts and finishes at the former Nazi atomic plant. On

this first day the plan is to ski five miles before camping. Skiing

three or four hours is tiring. At this time of year the Kirkpatricks

have six hours to ski. Light is fading fast. It's horrible. I hate

it. With the kids exhausted and weather worsening, will the next few

days on the mountain prove to be too much for the Kirkpatricks? Well -

It's not really a holiday, is it, let's face it. It's for Andy. They

are trying to recreate the epic journey seen in the Heroes of

Telemark. We will see how they get on later on. You don't have to go to

the extremes if you want a holiday that is seen on the silver screen.

We are joined by film critic, Antonia Quirke, who has agreed to

turn travel agent for one night only. We are going to discuss

holidays in the movie zone, we are calling it. The Kirkpatricks, not an

easy one to say, we saw them there. Quite an extreme situation. Say they

wanted something exciting but a little bit more relaxing. Maybe a

driving holiday Definitely not relaxing would be The Italian Job.

Yes. You can do tours of the centre of Turin in a Mini. When they made

the original film in 1969 they didn't have the money to stop

everything in the middle of Turin. They had to be creative and had

cameras at variouses vantage points. They sent in their catering truck to

create this traffic jam. They waited and waited as it compounded. Sent in

the bullion truck and the Land Rover and off they went. That would be

fun. Closer to home that might bring in one of our guests Maybe the

highlands with Rob Roy. There you go. Is it true some of those

locations were so remote you had to be helicoptered in with all your

equipment? A lot they would go into I highland and hand carry the

equipment up there the crew. Like sherpas. You could go so high and

then he had to walk it up. What about Drummond Castle. John Hurt

lived in the movie. You can visit the gardens. Commoners are not

allowed in the house still though. Our next one. This has been inspired

by my mother-in-law. She sent photos back. My son couldn't believe his

eyes when he saw foe Yeos from Tunisia. You will explain why? The

original Star Wars movies were found in the desert in the Tunisia. A lot

of the set is standing there and in good condition. You can sleep in

Luke Skywalker's house for ?6 a night. A bargain. You can wonder the

area bumping into vaporator s. It's called set jetting. I hope it has

given you ideas. City Hospital is a show that I and many of you will

remember. You will when you hear the theme music. Showing everything

morning on BBC One it brought us tales of home and outbreak. Joshua

Gook was one child who captured all of our hearts. Here is Sarah with

his story. This is hard work. I'm quite out of breast. It's completely

normal if you are exercising. If you get breathless when you are not

exercising, that should set alarm bells ringing particularly when it

happens to a six-year-old. Back in 1999 Joshua Gook became a star on

the BBC series City Hospital. In your nativity play what did you play

A Shepherd's family. The whole family? No. His TV career was

happening for all the wrong reasons. Joshua was unusually breathless on

holiday. Mum, Natasha, thought it the might be asthma. The he was sent

for a routine X-ray they were about to be given the worse possible news.

We came into hospital on the 8th September. Within a couple of days

they diagnosed cancer. It attacks the immune system. He had a 60%

chance. Immediately you think - about 40 merz means that your child

isn't going to live. It was all awful. Jan was Joshua's consultants.

He had a mass in his chest which was pressing on the Tubes going to the

lungs. It was causing him to be increasingly breathless without

urgent treatment that could have fatal consequences. Joshua already

had advance stage three cancer. He would need months of intensive

chemothearpy. I would prefer to stay at home. I would prefer to go to

school than go to hospital. In hospital he seemed to be coping

well, even with the extra medicines he needed. It doesn't taste too bad.

Not too bad. Take a little drink. I don't need a That was good drink. .

Natasha knew everything depended on the chemo working. I can't deep

about it at the moment. It's a difficult time. Joshua spent many

weeks in hospital and was in and out over the Christmas period. The

Christmas holiday was great that year because we had a bit of hope.

You are not ever celebrating, just continually worried for a long,

long, long time. Joshua continued chemothearpy for two years and was

closely monitored after that. He was discharged from hospital aged 17.

Josh is fit and healthy he is now a tennis coached and playing at

national level. That was fantastic. Did you ever imagine all those years

ago that you would be doing this incredibly physical job? Not at the

time, no. When I was struggling to move around. I guess I'm lucky to do

something that is very physical. Josh is looking fot future. He and

his mum have never forgotten the hospital that saved his life. Hello,

Josh. Good to see you. Great to see you. It's been a while. We found

this the other day. A map, six years old I was when I made this. Detailed

map of the ward. I remember going round measuring this one day. I love

your spelling. School room - I was only six! Josh b Josh has come back

to the -- Josh has come back to the ward to see the young people still

in the middle of their treatment. It's strange being back. I stayed in

room while I was here. How long have you been here Three weeks. I haven't

been in here that long. I have a tumour going down the side of my

leg, I've got an operation soon to take it out in January. Hopefully,

everything is OK. How do you feel now having gone through it? I know

you were young at the time? Yeah, it's quite a strange one. I'm lucky

that today there are kind of no, kind of ill affects. Day-to-day I

can live my life as I want. Which is, I guess, the aim of it all,

isn't it? I would never dare to think that that would be the outcome

at that time. He's so fit and healthy and enjoying his life. It's

lovely. As miss hum said it's lovely to see he has gone on to do

something to physical, isn't it? He has made a success of himself.

Wonderful. Placido, you are here in our very christmassy set to talk

about an album that is so fitting My Christmas. Let us have a lilliesen.

Here we go. OK. # Silent night

# Holy night # All is calm

# All is bright... #

APPLAUSE How does singing Christmas songs compare to your usual set? I

tell you, to sing opera is difficult, but to singsongs it make

it is more difficult for everybody to judge because, of course, opera,

not everybody can sing. That's true. Everybody sitting here in the

studio, everybody can sing Silent Night. Everyone has an opinion -

They have their own opinions. I don't like it this way. I like this,

I like that. It's very much difficult to sing the most popular

things because the opera, it's not - not many at the theatre can do what

I'm doing, you know. Maybe there are three or four of my colleagues

sitting in the public. Otherwise, the public cannot. The songs,

anybody can sing, you know. I do it better, they say! The album has some

lovely duets on it. The Piano Guys are on it. Izina Menzel, lovely

choice. The younger audience will know her as the voice of Elsa from

Frozen and then there is your and your son, Placido Domingo Junior. We

have a photo of him there. How easier is it to sing with him than

the rest. Is it a natural thing, I suppose, because you are father and

son? I'm very proud of him hechl has the voice to sing opera, but he

didn't have the dedication at the beginning. He has been a wonderful

composure. He wrote many songs, film music. About four years agricultural

he said - I want to sing. He is singing opera and concerts. He was

singing now in Ireland, just three days agricultural. He's going to

tour in Germany. He is singing wonderful. I think he sings

beautifully in English. Good there at the eye tunes Festival last year.

Jack has followed in your footsteps. Neither of you went to drama school.

Actors tend to follow the same path. How much advice did you give him

along the way On and off, you know, I mean he is his own guy. But he...

Yeah, he applied to college and I can't remember, I think he got into

a couple of them. I did the same thing. There was always a job that

was coming up that. You know, he would rather be on stage than

pretending in transit, as it were. It's good. He is doing great. Really

well. Staying with the family feel, you dedicated this album, haven't

you, to your sister? Yeah. Why of all of the things have you done have

you dedicated this Christmas album for her? Because unfortunately we

lost her in June, you know. It is of course Christmas time when we all

get together. It's going to be very difficult Christmas, you know. It

was... It was very difficult year, really. I want just to say to

everybody how much I love her. How much everybody in the family miss

her. I guess, as a singer as well, having the life experience that you

do, I mean that adds to so much depth to the songs that you are

singing and how the tone must change throughout all of your career with

the emotion you are singing with? Yeah, that's right, you know. During

this time, May and June, which we were really all the time at the

hospital, you know. So I had to cancel some performances in Covent

Garden here, I was telling you before, yesterday it was 44 years of

my debut, my first performance on the 8th December 1971. Last century

- you know! Military APPLAUSE. You deserve a round of

applause for that. Wonderful 44 years. It's a lovely album. With the

help of Vincent Niclo, of course, you will perform Have Your self A

Merry Little Christmas. We are excited about hearing. I can't wait.

It's time too open another door on our One Show Advent Calendar. Behind

door number nine is Brian this was sent in by his son Kevin. He has had

throat cancer. We had an email from Kevin to say he had the all clear

just today. A very merry Christmas. Such good news. If you would like to

feature in our calendar you can email us at the usual address. From

one calendar to another now. Shall we see how our Shenley Wood Village

People have been getting on re-enacting this wonderful album

cover from the Village People. They have been plugging in a lot of

lights. What has been happening as far as the costumes are concerned.

Interesting hair dress there. Indian. Maybe we should leave them

to to it. I would like them to do the routine as well as taking the

picture taken. Full on performance. Maybe the backing decommissions for

Placido, who knows! We will see the results later on.

With the world's most famous tenor right here on the sofa, there

couldn't be a better time for the third and final film from our One

Show Barbershop Quartet. Today's the day that they have been working

toward, will there are vocals lead them to victory? Put your fingers in

your area is, Placido probably not! VOICEOVER: I am on a mission to lead

our very own barbershop quartet to glory in the British barbershop

championships here in land at no, the cream of the barbershop world is

here. They come in all shapes and sizes.

And then, there is asked... -- us. There is around 6000 barbershop

singers in the UK, more than anywhere else in the world outside

of the US. It is a close-knit community, but in this world, the

judges take no prisoners. They are scoring between zero and 100. Vocal,

music, characteristics, believability, and suitability as a

performer. The quartet will spend upwards of a year preparing.

Usually, at least once a month, sometimes more frequently depending

upon how close they live to each other, and your quartet have not had

very long, as far as I'm aware. Certainly, the arrivals do not seem

that impressed. Listening to them, they... Look...

Good(!) ready to go! As the audience take their seats, and we do

last-minute preparation, it is time for the appropriately named The One

Show barbershop quartet to make their debut. Ladies and gentlemen,

one team, one dream! APPLAUSE With a song in my heart... I behold

your adorable face... VOICEOVER: We are off to a strong start!

And now, wish me luck, for my solo...

But I always knew that I'd leave life through with a song in my heart

for you. -- live life through. CHEERING

APPLAUSE Incredibly, we have gone down a

storm. Where we any good? I think that we

were, we had some nice moments! They went for it, that was good great

fun. What did the judges make of it? Bob Hodges is a representative of

the US Association of barbershop singers. You had good support for

each other throughout, the wheels never fell off. So that anything was

not recoverable... For you to do that the first marvellous. Do the

judges scores tell the same story? Out of a possible 900, you have got

394. As you predicted, presentation is

your highest score. Has any buddy scored that low today...? You guys

did! Back next year? I think you should! I would love it. STUDIO: It

was never going to go brilliantly, but it was a good effort! On the

singing theme, we have got Vincent Niclo with us, lovely to have you

here, you will be singing later, with Placido Domingo, over there, so

you have swapped, as we have lost placid though, he has come in your

place. You did a duet on the album. But do you have something in your

contract where you do not ever get to meet each other(!) the first time

we sang together two weeks ago. It is such an honour to sing with him.

Time is tight. You were inspired by another ten, to get into the world

are singing. Yes, Pavarotti. I turned on the radio, I heard Nessun

Dorma, I heard his voice and it's changed my life. I was not supposed

to go that way, and when I listened to the opera, I was saying to

myself, I want to do that. I took lessons, lessons, lessons, for

years. My teacher said, I think you can do it, that was the best day of

my life. You sang with him, you are singing with Placido Domingo

tonight, and then lastly, Carreras. May be, why not. Everyday is

Christmas for me! Are on Christmas time now, but for three years, I

have been singing with such big stars like Celine Dion, as a

deadening go, many others... -- Placido Domingo. You have an album

next March. Out in the UK. The beginning of March, my first English

album, here in the UK. It is a big deal, and I hope the audience here

is going to like my work. And we shall see. That whole inspiration

thing is an interesting one, it was not really a person that got you

into acting, it was an incident with your bicycle! It was a lucky

accident, I was working in the West End, probably quite close to here,

selling advertising to people who could not afford it(!) over the

phone, cycling back to where I lived. I got a flat tire, I stopped

in at a theatre, they told me about auditions going on. I was looking

for a pump for my bicycle. They were telling me about auditions for a

television film, I auditioned a few times, and I got the job. Around the

corner. What was the production? Made In Britain. About a skinhead.

That is fate playing its hand! I read that in order to make sure you

got the part, you turned up and you are messing around in the

playground? I went early for the audition, the third audition, I knew

that they would tell me to take a break, get me later... I went

outside, I said I will wait in the park... Soho Square... I knew that

they would be watching me, I did a bit of bad behaviour! A mate of

mine, from a punk band, they stopped us. I knew that they would be

watching. That is why I got the job! You must have had an feeling that

you fancy trying your hand at acting. When I was at school I

auditioned for a musical, Dracula spectacular! We all know that one!

It was a joke, I auditioned as a joke, it backfired, I got the job,

then I had to do it in front of all of the bullies. Then this incredible

woman, Joe will Walker, a teacher, she pushed me to do community

better, pub theatre. That is how I got it. -- Jo Walker. Judging by

this, I'm surprised you did not go down a musical route... You've got

this one going, have you? Appalling! This is not that bad! It is pretty

bad... LAUGHTER One of those old school films, I

thought it was lovely. I did it because of my wife, she is crazy

that musical so I thought that I would have a go, and I wanted to

know what it felt like when you are singing and then you go into

dialogue... And vice versa... I wanted to know what that was like.

With Woody, as well. This, Placido Domingo is on the other side of this

Judeo. -- other side of this studio. Thank you very much, round of

applause. Well, the Shenley Wood Village People are back in the

studio, looking hilarious, this is the original, we wanted them to

copy, and here is what they have created...

That is almost all that we have got time for tonight, are you... What

are your plans? Are you heading back to Los Angeles? We are doing the

tour for the hateful eight, off to Paris, for a couple of days, the

premiere tomorrow... In London, at the Odeon, Leicester Square. Doing

that, New York, back to Los Angeles. You spend all of your time over in

Los Angeles, must be lovely for you to come to the heart of Britain...

Hasek, Leicester Square cinema. I saw alien at the opening night of

alien, and I remember, I had the cheap seats, front row. -- Alien. I

think there is going to be a bit of that tomorrow night! Proper cinema.

Thank you so much for your company. Tim Roth! January eight, The Hateful

eight is in cinemas. And thanks too to Placido Domingo and Vincent

Niclo. Placido's album My Christmas is in shops now. Here they are,

singing live with "Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas'.

# Have yourself a merry little Christmas

# From now on our troubles will be out of sight

# Have yourself a merry little Christmas

# From now on our troubles will be miles away

# Faithful friends who are dear to us

# Until then we'll have to muddle through somehow
