:00:17. > :00:23.Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker. And Alex Jones.
:00:24. > :00:26.After 30 years impersonating the great and the good, our guest
:00:27. > :00:31.tonight is making his West End acting debut this month. And as he's
:00:32. > :00:44.playing a butler, we thought we'd give him some work experience.
:00:45. > :00:53.Bremner! Tea! It's Rory Bremner. You have got your hands full. Good
:00:54. > :01:04.evening, my lady. Will the gentle man be staying? Just for the next 30
:01:05. > :01:16.minutes! You look very professional. It is quite useless tray. I have had
:01:17. > :01:22.a few lessons. Lady March is at Goodwood and does a lot of charity
:01:23. > :01:26.work so I spoke to her about that. The important thing is that your in
:01:27. > :01:34.the room but not in the room. You stand quietly at the back but that
:01:35. > :01:40.is not very good on the one Show! That is what acting is all about!
:01:41. > :01:44.You are making your acting debut in the West End but we know you as an
:01:45. > :01:50.impressionist. Do you think there are still some great characters left
:01:51. > :01:59.in British politics? There is Boris of course. And Nigel Farage. He will
:02:00. > :02:05.say black is white, white is black. He said everything so definitely.
:02:06. > :02:11.The thing about Angela Merkel, she is wrong. It is the way he says
:02:12. > :02:22.things, very bunches. Bouncing on his heels. It was the curry of the
:02:23. > :02:28.year award, a roomful of Indians and Bangladeshis, he must have felt like
:02:29. > :02:34.an atheist on Christmas Day. But he was bouncing up and down, very
:02:35. > :02:40.confident. We will talk later on about how there's much satire
:02:41. > :02:45.around. Well later on you can catch up with my training ahead of my
:02:46. > :02:52.Sport Relief challenge next week. You are going the right way!
:02:53. > :02:54.EastEnders has never shyed away from tackling difficult issues, and it's
:02:55. > :02:57.currently doing it again by highlighting a genetic condition
:02:58. > :03:00.that increases the risk of cancer. Actress Natalie Cassidy, also known
:03:01. > :03:04.as Sonia Jackson, has taken a break from the square and taken the One
:03:05. > :03:11.Show cameras to find out more about her character's predicament. Women
:03:12. > :03:17.in the UK has a 12% chance of developing breast cancer in their
:03:18. > :03:23.lifetime. That is one in eight. But some women have a major -- have an
:03:24. > :03:30.even greater risk of developing breast and ovarian cancer. They
:03:31. > :03:34.carry a faulty gene. This increases their chances of developing breast
:03:35. > :03:40.cancer by as much as 90% over their lifetime. The faulty gene is
:03:41. > :03:45.hereditary and can be passed down through the family. Both men and
:03:46. > :03:50.women carry it. If you have it there is a 50% chance that your children
:03:51. > :03:55.will also inherit it. Eastenders now has a storyline in which my screen
:03:56. > :03:59.mother discovers she has cancer and also carries this faulty gene,
:04:00. > :04:09.putting her daughters at risk. I need to talk to you about the test
:04:10. > :04:22.results. We already know about that. David made a mistake. I have got the
:04:23. > :04:25.gene, the test was positive. My character now faces an agonising
:04:26. > :04:31.decision about whether to get tested for the gene. The charity rake
:04:32. > :04:36.through best cancer says that many people are tested every year in the
:04:37. > :04:42.UK. I want to know what can be help if you do carry the gene, both
:04:43. > :04:46.before and after cancer develops. This unit in the Royal Marsden
:04:47. > :04:51.Hospital sees around 1000 new cases every year. How can you tell if
:04:52. > :04:57.someone has the faulty gene? When we do these test we are looking at the
:04:58. > :05:04.genes and reading them, the DNA code. We are looking for a spelling
:05:05. > :05:09.mistake which means it does not work properly. Advances mean that more
:05:10. > :05:14.people can be tested than ever before. By having the gene test and
:05:15. > :05:19.finding out if you have got the mutation, we are able to show that a
:05:20. > :05:26.lot of the time they do not have the mutation in spite of the strong
:05:27. > :05:29.family history. Doctors recommend getting tested if there is a family
:05:30. > :05:35.history, if you have certain types of cancer or if you develop breast
:05:36. > :05:38.cancer before the age of 50. If you do test positive it is not the end
:05:39. > :05:43.of the story. There are things that you can do to decrease your chance
:05:44. > :05:48.of getting the disease. But these are not easy options. We would
:05:49. > :05:53.advise on all the options which can range from doing nothing, to the
:05:54. > :06:00.other extreme of having a bilateral mastectomy. That will reduce your
:06:01. > :06:04.risk to just below that of the population who do not carry the
:06:05. > :06:09.gene. What happens if somebody does have the faulty gene and wants to
:06:10. > :06:16.start a family? As a rule if you know about the gene in advance, then
:06:17. > :06:21.those people would be advised to try and start their family earlier
:06:22. > :06:26.rather than later. You also have to think about the children. There is
:06:27. > :06:33.all about. It is a 50-50 chance that that gene will be passed on, or not.
:06:34. > :06:37.So that does play into it. Fran Howard had breast cancer and carries
:06:38. > :06:42.the faulty gene. She took the decision to have a double mistake to
:06:43. > :06:48.me. Her daughter Lauren is 19. How would did you feel when you found
:06:49. > :06:53.out you had the faulty gene? I felt like I had the cancer all over
:06:54. > :06:57.again. When you're told you feel you are the only one who has got it. Her
:06:58. > :07:08.daughter has decided not to be tested yet. I had the letter. It is
:07:09. > :07:13.up to me if I want to go. Perhaps as I get older and have my own
:07:14. > :07:20.children, I may reconsider and take the option. Because things can
:07:21. > :07:25.change. There could be something else, there could be another option.
:07:26. > :07:40.Are you proud of her for that decision? As a mother, you do, as a
:07:41. > :07:45.mother myself, I wanted to do it. She will do it one day but it has to
:07:46. > :07:53.be her choice to do it. And whatever choice she makes, I will be there. I
:07:54. > :07:57.am truly stand at the bravery of any woman that has to endure breast
:07:58. > :08:00.cancer and I hope that programmes like Eastenders can help raise
:08:01. > :08:08.awareness about the options available out there. Well there is a
:08:09. > :08:16.lot to get your head around. Dr Sarah Jarvis is here. For anyone who
:08:17. > :08:26.may have watched Eastenders and all are worried, what should they do? We
:08:27. > :08:36.need to put in in prospective -- into. For the vast majority it does
:08:37. > :08:41.not run in the family. However we do need to bear in mind that if you
:08:42. > :08:46.have a strong family history if someone under 40 in your family got
:08:47. > :08:53.breast cancer, or a man in your family who got breast cancer, that
:08:54. > :08:58.does happen. It is rare unless you have this faulty gene. Or if you
:08:59. > :09:01.have two or more people in the family with breast or ovarian
:09:02. > :09:07.cancer. The message is if you are in doubt go and speak to your GP. They
:09:08. > :09:12.will be able to tell you about how big your risk is. And then the test
:09:13. > :09:19.can raise, located and emotional decisions. I do applaud Eastenders
:09:20. > :09:26.for doing this storyline. So many patients have come in and they are
:09:27. > :09:30.scared about their children. Girls and of course boys because they have
:09:31. > :09:33.the chance of carrying it even though the risk of getting breast
:09:34. > :09:40.cancer is small by comparison to a woman. You could give it to your
:09:41. > :09:46.roles. The great news is that you will not be left on your own. You
:09:47. > :09:49.will have counselling from a trained counsellor in genetics beforehand
:09:50. > :09:55.and they will tell you how to broach the subject with your family. And
:09:56. > :10:01.how useful can the soap operas beat? They can make an enormous
:10:02. > :10:05.difference. 12 years ago we had Alma Baldwin by the cervical cancer in
:10:06. > :10:18.Coronation Street. And there was a huge increase of women coming
:10:19. > :10:22.forward. Half the people who come for bowel screening, they do not
:10:23. > :10:26.return the test. It is great to raise awareness and Eastenders have
:10:27. > :10:33.a fantastic medical team. They make sure that the story is accurate.
:10:34. > :10:40.Thanks, Sarah. And you can catch up with Carol and Sonia's story in
:10:41. > :10:44.EastEnders tonight at 8pm. Now this time next week Alex will be 5,000
:10:45. > :10:51.miles away in Utah, preparing to climb 1,200 feet to the top of a
:10:52. > :10:59.rock called Moonlight Buttress. Rory, you have had a bit of climate
:11:00. > :11:05.experience. We did go down at church the wrong way! Backwards instead of
:11:06. > :11:23.forwards. But that is a step up from strictly! At least you don't have
:11:24. > :11:30.judges at the bottom! Rory used to bring me dried fruit and nuts when
:11:31. > :11:33.we were doing the programme. Well the whole point of going to the
:11:34. > :11:38.United States is to raise money. Rory, can you please ask people in
:11:39. > :11:50.your American voice if they will donate. All you need to do is to
:11:51. > :11:53.text ALEX to 70005. Texts cost ?5 plus your standard network message
:11:54. > :12:02.charge and ?5 per text goes to Sport Relief. I am Eric Obama, and I
:12:03. > :12:08.approve this message. -- Barack Obama. You must be 16 or over and
:12:09. > :12:11.please ask the bill payer's permission. For full terms and
:12:12. > :12:16.conditions and more information go to bbc.co.uk/sportrelief. Now as a
:12:17. > :12:21.complete climbing novice, I need all the climbing training I can get.
:12:22. > :12:27.Which is why I recently found myself dangling between the devil and the
:12:28. > :12:36.deep blue sea. Today I'm off to Pembrokeshire with
:12:37. > :12:41.my mum and dad. They have come along for emotional support. What do you
:12:42. > :12:47.think about me doing this climbing? We are apprehensive. Why? I'm not
:12:48. > :12:55.sure if you have trained enough and that is a worry. When Alex was
:12:56. > :13:03.growing up she was a girly girl. She was never sporty but she does excel
:13:04. > :13:09.at things that she likes. She is a people of person, very warm. If she
:13:10. > :13:15.can help anyone, she will. I was in a taxi the other day and a little
:13:16. > :13:26.man said he is your first five. Put it in the box. It looks like we are
:13:27. > :13:30.nearly there. My challenge today is to climb a
:13:31. > :13:36.steep cliff. The weather conditions will make life difficult for me and
:13:37. > :13:44.the camera team. It is absolutely freezing. All the gear, no idea! And
:13:45. > :13:53.to help me I have experienced climber, Trevor. Hello, Trevor. I am
:13:54. > :14:01.looking after your safety today. We are going to go climbing. It is all
:14:02. > :14:05.about training. If Trevor's briefing gave me a boost in confidence, once
:14:06. > :14:12.I get to the cliff edge it too much comes crashing down. Actually seeing
:14:13. > :14:18.it and thinking of climbing up it is really frightening. Today is not
:14:19. > :14:30.just about climbing. Before I go up I have to go down. Just stepped off
:14:31. > :14:36.the edge, Trevor said! This cliff is 90 foot tall. That is under one
:14:37. > :14:43.tenth of what I have to climb in Utah. What do I need to look out
:14:44. > :14:52.for? Well as an experienced climber I can look at that and see my route.
:14:53. > :14:58.Look out for the cracks. There is no turning back now. Here we go. I am
:14:59. > :15:04.dreading it. Trevor goes up first and I have to follow. But it comes
:15:05. > :15:07.clear that he soon that this is going to be a lot harder than going
:15:08. > :15:23.up a climbing wall. She won't give in, she will just
:15:24. > :15:50.have to do it and see it to the end. I don't know where to go. Just tried
:15:51. > :16:01.to swing round onto the wall. I can't. I don't know what I was
:16:02. > :16:09.expecting but if that was supposed to make me feel better about Utah, I
:16:10. > :16:28.think it has just done the opposite. It feels difficult. My fingers are
:16:29. > :16:35.in pain, that was proper hard. There you go. I have to say, the
:16:36. > :16:48.weather was ridiculous. It couldn't have been more torrential. You won't
:16:49. > :17:08.get that weather in Utah. It is worth ?5 just to see those photos.
:17:09. > :17:14.Domed! -- Don't! Lucy Creamer is one of the UK's most experienced female
:17:15. > :17:28.climbers. Let's look at some of your photos. Where is this? That looks
:17:29. > :17:32.warm. This is in Turkey. I am apprehensive about this climb, one
:17:33. > :17:38.of the things I spoke to you about earlier though is the fact that it
:17:39. > :17:44.is three days, but is a huge experience on a wall and feeling
:17:45. > :17:52.pretty vulnerable with four big, hairy male climbers. It is quite a
:17:53. > :17:57.male dominated environment, how do you deal with that? I have got used
:17:58. > :18:05.to it but what I would say about climbing men, they are pretty nice
:18:06. > :18:16.really. When you say climbing men, you say men who climb as opposed
:18:17. > :18:22.to... Yes, you will relax into it. Luck they are not all like Brian
:18:23. > :18:31.blasted! I have practised at a climbing centre and you can only go
:18:32. > :18:36.so high. At a height, everything is that much more of a struggle. If you
:18:37. > :18:42.get that feeling and the exposure becomes too much, how do you...
:18:43. > :18:48.Either don't let it get to that point, so luckily you will be
:18:49. > :18:54.gradually inching your way up the wall so hopefully you will ease your
:18:55. > :18:59.way into it. Don't stop yourself from looking down. Enjoy your
:19:00. > :19:04.surroundings, really soak it up and you will never probably repeat this
:19:05. > :19:12.experience so it is going to be one of the best... You might get
:19:13. > :19:20.addicted, who knows! They will be with you, you will be OK. So many
:19:21. > :19:25.questions, fluctuating temperatures, things like that, and one of the
:19:26. > :19:32.questions many people ask is how do you go to the toilet? This will
:19:33. > :19:41.become your best friend. She could have done with that a minute ago
:19:42. > :19:51.when she was watching the clip. Have you ever used this? I took it with
:19:52. > :19:57.me on one journey and forgot to use it. What are you doing next week
:19:58. > :20:05.because you would make a good body double, don't you think?
:20:06. > :20:10.I am doing this for people like Tess, who I met when I visited the
:20:11. > :20:15.relief effort in the Philippines following the devasting typhoon last
:20:16. > :20:21.November. Since Typhoon Haiyan, many children have been left susceptible
:20:22. > :20:28.to sickness and disease. High nutrient food packages help children
:20:29. > :20:31.like these. What is the one thing you need more than anything else to
:20:32. > :20:44.help give your daughter a better future? Food to strengthen her, to
:20:45. > :20:49.make her healthy. Such a lovely little girl. I know exactly your
:20:50. > :20:57.money can make or break people like this. Thank you to everybody who has
:20:58. > :21:12.already donated. So far the total is: And you haven't even started
:21:13. > :21:16.yet! Good for you, well done. Right,
:21:17. > :21:27.let's talk about your West End debut. You're treading the West End
:21:28. > :21:30.boards for the very first time later this month in Noel Coward's Relative
:21:31. > :21:33.Values at the Harold Pinter Theatre from March 19th, also stars Patricia
:21:34. > :21:36.Hodge and Caroline Quentin. Patricia Hodge is wonderful, people will know
:21:37. > :21:43.her recently from Miranda Budgie has been one of our great actors for a
:21:44. > :21:48.long time. I am in great hands. It is a fantastic cast. There are two
:21:49. > :21:53.micro kinds of plays in the West End they don't normally do but they saw
:21:54. > :21:58.this in Bath last year and they really liked the production. We
:21:59. > :22:05.starts next week. It is a really good play, written in 1951 by Noel
:22:06. > :22:10.Coward. He had four plays on in the West End when he was in his 20s.
:22:11. > :22:25.Everyone is obsessed with Downton Abbey and it is like a period
:22:26. > :22:33.sitcom. Wind -- I was once stopped for speeding in London... So your
:22:34. > :22:43.version of the Butler is a policeman? In the play, here's a
:22:44. > :22:52.version of that. Years ago a policeman stopped me and I was doing
:22:53. > :23:00.38, 32... In a 30 mph area. He walked around the car, then he said,
:23:01. > :23:06.well I will let you on your way, far be it for me to keep you from the
:23:07. > :23:14.classics. A little bit of that voice went in, and a little bit that owes
:23:15. > :23:19.itself to John Fortune. I spent so much time with him before he died
:23:20. > :23:27.and he had a very good upper-class voice. It is set in a country house.
:23:28. > :23:31.Noel Coward lived in Kent, Julian Clary lives in his house. A
:23:32. > :23:43.journalist once asked him where he lives, and he said, I live in Noel
:23:44. > :23:46.Coward's old house. It is set in a stately home in Kent and there is
:23:47. > :23:54.chaos when an American actress arrives to marry the man of the
:23:55. > :24:00.house and it is discovered she is the long lost sister of the made
:24:01. > :24:08.played by Caroline Quentin. There is a lot going on, social satire, but
:24:09. > :24:23.very funny and a wonderful cast. You can see Rory and the rest of the
:24:24. > :24:27.cast in Relative Values at the Harold Pinter Theatre from March the
:24:28. > :24:31.19th. Noel Coward famously played Mr Bridger in the Italian Job - the
:24:32. > :24:34.kingpin behind a huge bullion robbery. Here's John Sergeant with
:24:35. > :24:36.the story of another great gold heist. This is the Croydon Job.
:24:37. > :24:41.Before the war, Heathrow didn't exist. This was London's main
:24:42. > :24:46.airport, Croydon, the home of Imperial Airways. In its heyday,
:24:47. > :24:53.Croydon played host to celebrities and film stars. It was a very
:24:54. > :25:01.glamorous place where the rich and famous game. Douglas Fairbanks
:25:02. > :25:05.Junior, Charlie Chaplin came. In 1935 it became famous for quite a
:25:06. > :25:12.different reason, as the site of one of the most sensational crimes ever
:25:13. > :25:20.committed. Very early in the morning on March the 5th, four men took a
:25:21. > :25:26.taxi to Croydon, a mile and a half from the airport terminal they asked
:25:27. > :25:31.the driver to wait for them. It was 4am. The German cargo plane had just
:25:32. > :25:36.landed and the only security guard went to meet it, leaving the
:25:37. > :25:40.terminal building unattended. The men simply strolled into the
:25:41. > :25:44.terminal building, and they were not challenged as they made their way
:25:45. > :25:50.across the desert of booking hall to the secure bullion room. The safe
:25:51. > :25:56.was quickly opened, they found gold bars and sovereigns valued at over
:25:57. > :26:00.?20,000, more than ?3 million today. It had taken them only 45 minutes to
:26:01. > :26:05.carry out the biggest robbery in British history and that record
:26:06. > :26:12.lasted for nearly 30 years. They came in here am I came across here
:26:13. > :26:19.and got a key to this safe, opened it, very simple, and there is the
:26:20. > :26:27.gold. They picked up the gold bars and they were away. Yes, they knew
:26:28. > :26:33.the layout of the airport, they had the keys. I have come to central
:26:34. > :26:42.London to meet a man who spent most of his life chasing criminals. John
:26:43. > :26:50.O'Connor is former head of the Meant flying squad. The taxi driver's card
:26:51. > :26:56.number was taken down by a witness on the day. It looks like they took
:26:57. > :26:59.the gold to a man who was believed to have been one of the handlers, in
:27:00. > :27:07.other words not involved in the robbery but he helped dispose of the
:27:08. > :27:19.booty. His landlady reported some suspicious goings-on. There were
:27:20. > :27:24.four robbers including an old man called John O'Brien, one known as
:27:25. > :27:29.Little Harry, and another one who is not known of at all. Two of them
:27:30. > :27:36.were identified by the taxi driver but that the subsequent trial, the
:27:37. > :27:40.taxi driver reneges on his original statement and the case fell apart.
:27:41. > :27:53.The only person who went to prison was this man called Swanland. A
:27:54. > :27:58.failure from a policing point of view? They did get a conviction for
:27:59. > :28:03.receiving stolen property but in reality this was a failure. This was
:28:04. > :28:08.a robbery on a huge scale and I think the police were not equipped
