APPLAUSE Hello. Welcome to The One Show. | :00:38. | :00:42. | |
Thank you to Texas. A brand new single on the way from Sharleen and | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
the band later. Very much looking forward to that. You can say what | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
you want but you can not deny this isn't a monster of an obstacle | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
course. Ready? Let's do this! We will stop there for now. We will | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
save the best for later. Pleads do. It's the Biggest inflatable obstacle | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
course in the whole of Europe. Is that right? We will be putting it to | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
good use during the show. Done well. We are also joined by a galaxy of | :01:07. | :01:10. | |
guests who have travelled far and wide to be with us tonight. Shall we | :01:11. | :01:17. | |
find out who they are. Between them Olympic gold medallist Helen Glover | :01:18. | :01:26. | |
and Steve Backshall. Tonight they're on dry land to tell us about their | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
epic plans for the weekend. Oh my word. It's huge. Is it that close? | :01:32. | :01:38. | |
Always good to see you mate. As for our other guests, one has travelled | :01:39. | :01:41. | |
thousands of miles for a special Easter pilgrimage. Yes, the other | :01:42. | :01:46. | |
has journeyed billions of light years through time and through | :01:47. | :01:52. | |
space, it's the Doctor's brand new companion, Pearl Mackie and Fern | :01:53. | :01:57. | |
Britton! APPLAUSE | :01:58. | :02:04. | |
Well, Pearl, we will start, you have only just finished filming Doctor | :02:05. | :02:08. | |
Who on Friday. Yeah, just wrapped on Friday, kind of mad. You can't give | :02:09. | :02:14. | |
anything away. No spoilers. Can you give us the last face you pulled in | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
the last scene that you filmed? Can I remember that? Yeah, it was | :02:20. | :02:25. | |
something along these lines. Oh! That wasn't necessarily the last | :02:26. | :02:30. | |
scene of the episode, though. Last scene you filmed. OK, have you got a | :02:31. | :02:35. | |
sense already of the enormity of what you are part of now? Yeah, kind | :02:36. | :02:41. | |
of. It's gradually hitting me, you know, sort of things will happen and | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
I will get to come on The One Show and that's pretty mad. Yeah, so that | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
kind of thing is very, very surreal. You know, fans and all of that kind | :02:52. | :02:59. | |
of stuff. Already. Yeah, I think it will sort of only multiply after | :03:00. | :03:03. | |
Saturday. Brace yourself. Fern, is this a bad time to say what you put | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
into Room 101? Yeah, no, I don't want anyone to take this personally. | :03:11. | :03:16. | |
I did put in Doctor Who because... Shall we look at you doing it. | :03:17. | :03:24. | |
Sorry! I don't understand any of it. Any of it! Doctor Who I think is the | :03:25. | :03:38. | |
most dreary thing on... Yeah, you can't unsee that now. Then | :03:39. | :03:42. | |
you and Peter Capaldi and Matt Lucas turned up and suddenly I am really | :03:43. | :03:54. | |
fired up about it. I am not a science fiction fan and Doctor Who | :03:55. | :03:58. | |
has been going almost as long as I have. It hasn't ever captured me. | :03:59. | :04:03. | |
Don't hold it against me. We have an exclusive clip later. That will | :04:04. | :04:08. | |
capture you. It will. I am on it now. You will be telling us about | :04:09. | :04:13. | |
your new body art, as well. I might. So much to get through in this hour. | :04:14. | :04:16. | |
Let's get cracking. Ahead of the Government releasing a new air | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
quality plan in 12 days' time, the focus has been on reducing the | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
pollution risk from older diesel cars. Proposals have included | :04:25. | :04:28. | |
everything from toxic taxes to scrappage schemes. However, some | :04:29. | :04:33. | |
campaigners in -- in port towns say the problem | :04:34. | :04:50. | |
isn't just on the road. Here's Lucy. That's the equivalent to around 400 | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
lorries parked with their engines running. | :04:54. | :04:59. | |
So it's no surprise to hear last year Southampton breached | :05:00. | :05:01. | |
international clean air standards. It's the 9th most polluted city in | :05:02. | :05:05. | |
the UK and although that's not all down to shipping, local residents | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
have formed a campaign group calling for something to be done. On our | :05:10. | :05:15. | |
window sills we get dust and soot. Nobody has the right to pollute my | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
air and my children's air for the sake of their profits. But could | :05:20. | :05:24. | |
this be the solution? Southampton is planning on becoming the first UK | :05:25. | :05:30. | |
port to install onshore electricity for moored ships. Alistair is the | :05:31. | :05:36. | |
port director. My background is in the aviation industry and with an | :05:37. | :05:39. | |
aircraft when you come to a stop you plug in power and turn the engines | :05:40. | :05:43. | |
off. In you are in a yath the same thing happens. With a larger ship it | :05:44. | :05:48. | |
doesn't happen. Sounds simple. In practice, install ago power supply | :05:49. | :05:51. | |
would be a huge project. How much would it cost? That's the million | :05:52. | :05:55. | |
dollar question. But it's multiply million pounds. So, is it worth it? | :05:56. | :06:01. | |
Nobody has done the actual science to establish how dirty the air here | :06:02. | :06:06. | |
in Southampton is, how much the pollution is attributable to ships | :06:07. | :06:11. | |
and what difference an electricity supply would make. That's where | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
Southampton University comes in. They've begun a survey of air | :06:16. | :06:19. | |
pollution levels in the city headed by Dr Matt Locksham. We are going to | :06:20. | :06:24. | |
take readings of dust samples to understand how the make-up of air | :06:25. | :06:26. | |
pollution changes day-to-day depending on how many ships there | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
are moving in the docks, what the road traffic activity is and what | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
the weather's like, as well. Matt's results won't be known for two | :06:34. | :06:39. | |
years. So we have asked a doctor from Queen Mary University in London | :06:40. | :06:42. | |
to conduct a simple air quality test of our own in the terminal next to | :06:43. | :06:47. | |
where ships dock. Over two days we will monitor levels when there is | :06:48. | :06:52. | |
and isn't a ship in dock. This measures how much black carbon is in | :06:53. | :06:57. | |
the air around you. Let's set it up. We will put this tube outside. The | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
Monday store will give us a reading every 60 seconds. Hopefully we will | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
see a difference between ships coming in and out of dock. The | :07:05. | :07:09. | |
results of that experiment to come. Meanwhile, in response to concerns | :07:10. | :07:12. | |
about diesel ships, some new cruise liners are running on alternative | :07:13. | :07:16. | |
fuels. Just arrived in port is what is claimed to be one of the world's | :07:17. | :07:22. | |
greenest liners. First of many in the carnival fleet to run in port on | :07:23. | :07:32. | |
low emission liquid natural gas. The chairman is David Dingle. Other | :07:33. | :07:36. | |
cruise lines are ordering ships with a cleaner fuel that's been used | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
traditionally. What do you make of the proposal to have onshore | :07:41. | :07:44. | |
electric? It's a good proposal. But it's all very well to produce plug | :07:45. | :07:50. | |
in electricity in the ports, but how was that electricity produced in the | :07:51. | :07:54. | |
first place? Was it its origin any greener than the way in which we | :07:55. | :07:58. | |
produce electricity within our ships when they're tied up alongside? | :07:59. | :08:04. | |
Back to the results of our test. Although this is just a snapshot and | :08:05. | :08:08. | |
not a thorough scientific study, the impact of a ship coming into port on | :08:09. | :08:12. | |
air quality is clear to see. First up, the reading when there is | :08:13. | :08:20. | |
no ship. You can see it's pretty much a flat line. The levels were | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
low from what we managed to capture. And what about when there is a | :08:24. | :08:28. | |
cruise liner docked? You can see that the readings are generally a | :08:29. | :08:31. | |
little higher. There is also a spike here which could be because of a | :08:32. | :08:36. | |
passing ship. This reading essentially puts the port on a par | :08:37. | :08:39. | |
with an average street in London, one of our most polluted cities. | :08:40. | :08:45. | |
That's why for Alistair onshore electricity is a solution worth | :08:46. | :08:49. | |
pursuing. I think in 50 years' time it probably won't be needed. We want | :08:50. | :08:52. | |
to explore to see whether there is an option to do something in the | :08:53. | :08:57. | |
sper rim which will help to support a reduction in emissions locally. We | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
will keep an eye on that issue. The Government report is due on 24th | :09:02. | :09:07. | |
April. Pearl, as Doctor Who's new companion, what does the Tardis run, | :09:08. | :09:12. | |
petrol, diesel? It's space engine oil. No congestion charges. Great. | :09:13. | :09:18. | |
No pollution either. Let's have a look at you in character. Here is a | :09:19. | :09:25. | |
lovely photograph of you. Tell us about Bill. Bill's great. | :09:26. | :09:31. | |
She's really, she's very real. She's like, kind of like, you know, if you | :09:32. | :09:35. | |
or I sort of stumbled down the road and discovered a Tardis and a crazy | :09:36. | :09:39. | |
man inside it who was offering to show you all of space and time, you | :09:40. | :09:48. | |
know. Wide-eyed. Completely. With that she brings a kind of fresh look | :09:49. | :09:53. | |
at the Doctor and the universe he presents. She's very inquisitive, as | :09:54. | :09:57. | |
well, which is something that I like about her. Is that what the creators | :09:58. | :10:01. | |
wanted or did you have input into her style or anything like that? A | :10:02. | :10:05. | |
little bit of input into her style. The costume designer and I went | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
shopping together and actually kind of had both had a similar idea about | :10:10. | :10:13. | |
what we wanted for her. That was cool. Yeah, we put her together, | :10:14. | :10:17. | |
together. Shall we look at an exclusive clip from this Saturday's | :10:18. | :10:20. | |
episode. People are going to be very excited! | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
Can you do that? Can I say no? Yes, then. But no really. Where are we? | :10:27. | :10:34. | |
Basically in the middle of a war. It's a war zone. This is just your | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
basic skirmish. It's not as bad as it sounds, I promise you. Come on, I | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
have friends here. Old friends. APPLAUSE AND CHEERING | :10:50. | :10:55. | |
Pearl, you are in the thick of it there. Yeah. With Doctor Who, | :10:56. | :10:59. | |
obviously with his travelling he comes with a lot of baggage. How | :11:00. | :11:05. | |
much of all of that were you aware of before you started with this, | :11:06. | :11:08. | |
were you a lifelong fan? It wasn't on when I was a kid. I was part of | :11:09. | :11:18. | |
the sort of years, I didn't, it came back when I was 16 and sort of hang | :11:19. | :11:22. | |
out in parks and probably doing silly things. But, yeah... That lack | :11:23. | :11:26. | |
of knowledge was it a good thing? I think so. I mean, I said to Stephen | :11:27. | :11:31. | |
and Brian when I got the job, look, give me the back catalogue, I would | :11:32. | :11:35. | |
love to watch it all, I would be excited. They were like, independent | :11:36. | :11:38. | |
don't know whatever you are doing is working well and it's nice if you | :11:39. | :11:40. | |
are experience things as Bill experiences them, as well. Yeah, I | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
thought it was a good way to sort of go. Maybe opens it up to people who | :11:45. | :11:50. | |
may not be science fiction nuts like our friend Fern here. We might be | :11:51. | :11:56. | |
able to persuade her yet: It's a good way to first watch, even with | :11:57. | :12:01. | |
no prior knowledge. I am in there. 7. 20pm, BBC One, Saturday night. I | :12:02. | :12:06. | |
am there. You are about to be thrust into this kind of, I would imagine, | :12:07. | :12:11. | |
slightly overwhelming limelight, very exciting. But for people who | :12:12. | :12:16. | |
are being introduced to you via Doctor Who, where did you come from, | :12:17. | :12:22. | |
what was your last - your background? I grew up in Brixton, I | :12:23. | :12:29. | |
am a London girl. I went to Bristol Vic Theatre School, graduated about | :12:30. | :12:32. | |
seven years ago, lots of theatre before that. Recently did The | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
Curious Incident of The Dog. Finished that and had a day to move | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
to Cardiff and start Doctor Who. Didn't Peter Capaldi see you? He | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
did, after I had been cast. The last time we had seen each other was in | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
this very intense recall in this hotel and then he came to see | :12:54. | :13:00. | |
Curious Incident, I heard I got the job, celebrated and not told anyone | :13:01. | :13:03. | |
because it's a secret. I heard that he was in the audience. And I was | :13:04. | :13:09. | |
like... What do I do? It's terrifying, is he going to tell | :13:10. | :13:12. | |
everyone, is he not going to say anything? Both of us were sort of | :13:13. | :13:16. | |
like... He was like, congratulations. I was like, thank | :13:17. | :13:23. | |
you. Ran away afterwards! It was so intense. The most intense sort of | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
five minutes of my life. What was first day on set like for you? It | :13:29. | :13:35. | |
was mad. Yeah, the sort of one kind of most overwhelming thing was the | :13:36. | :13:40. | |
amount of crew. We rehearsed, we filmed the first scene of the first | :13:41. | :13:44. | |
episode on the first day so rehearsed that and it's a chunky | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
scene, we had a long time of Peter and I and the director. Then we did | :13:48. | :13:51. | |
a thing called a crew show, all the crew come in and you show them and | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
they know where to set booms and everything like that. They just kept | :13:57. | :14:02. | |
coming. And I was sitting there, yeah, seriously! It was like, there | :14:03. | :14:06. | |
was so many of them. I remember thinking how am I going to remember | :14:07. | :14:10. | |
all these people's names? Did you? Yes, I do. I know all their names. | :14:11. | :14:15. | |
Tell me about the Daleks, have they got a big ego now, they've been | :14:16. | :14:19. | |
around a long time? Are they a bit precious to work with? They're gold | :14:20. | :14:25. | |
these days, as well. So yeah, they're a bit flash. You can see | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
Pearl in Doctor Who this Saturday night at 7. 20 on BBC One and Fern | :14:30. | :14:38. | |
will be watching. LAUGHTER | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
The world of football is littered with stories of those whose careers | :14:43. | :14:45. | |
hit the buffers after injury. In Lee Hendry's case his fall from grace | :14:46. | :14:49. | |
nearly cost him his life. Here, he and his wife look back at events and | :14:50. | :14:51. | |
how they got through it. The moment of you walking out that | :14:52. | :15:04. | |
tunnel, the roar of the crowd and people jumping out of their seats is | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
probably the best feeling you can ever imagine. All the fans loved him | :15:10. | :15:14. | |
because he gave 100%. He was fun, outgoing, everyone knew him. I was | :15:15. | :15:26. | |
earning ?35,000 a week. We had nice cars, a nice house, everything we | :15:27. | :15:31. | |
could ever imagine. At times, you thought he was untouchable. I got a | :15:32. | :15:39. | |
few injuries that put stumbling blocks on the playing, and people | :15:40. | :15:43. | |
started to forget who I was. What can you do with someone who is at | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
the top of the game, earning thousands, and it is all coming down | :15:48. | :15:52. | |
on top of an? He is the type who will just brush everything under the | :15:53. | :15:55. | |
carpet, so when I started opening the post and realising these were | :15:56. | :15:59. | |
red letters, things we hadn't pay, I felt physically sick. -- things we | :16:00. | :16:07. | |
hadn't paid. Lee hit the pressure on pretty much when his mum's pals got | :16:08. | :16:11. | |
taken off her. It wasn't just affecting him and me now, but | :16:12. | :16:15. | |
everyone around us. Things were going and we couldn't do anything | :16:16. | :16:18. | |
about it. It is difficult when you are booking after the kids and URL | :16:19. | :16:22. | |
most having to look after your husband as well. It shouldn't be | :16:23. | :16:36. | |
like that. -- you are almost having to look after your husband as well. | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
I thought, you know what, this is where it ends. I didn't want to be | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
here. That was me done, that was Lee Hendrie, you know, his life is | :16:48. | :16:53. | |
finished. And it makes me well up a bit, to be fair. The darkest, | :16:54. | :17:11. | |
darkest time of my life, ever, ... I think it was more... What I tell the | :17:12. | :17:18. | |
children, that was my main worry at the time. My stepdaughter 's and my | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
to make boys, even though they weren't old enough... Sorry. -- my | :17:26. | :17:40. | |
two boys. It was having the family all-rounder bed and thinking, it | :17:41. | :17:46. | |
didn't work, it didn't happen. -- all round the bed. It sounds | :17:47. | :17:55. | |
selfish, but I knew deep down that it was going to happen again. It was | :17:56. | :18:07. | |
the waking up. I can't remember anyone being there. It's care me, it | :18:08. | :18:11. | |
did. Probably the best thing to do was to wake up with no one around | :18:12. | :18:17. | |
him, because that made him realise we can't sit and watch him just | :18:18. | :18:20. | |
destroy himself. I had lost everything that I had financially. I | :18:21. | :18:29. | |
was going to end up being a sad, lonely old man, or I was going to go | :18:30. | :18:34. | |
somewhere. I couldn't do it, couldn't do it to my family. | :18:35. | :18:50. | |
Dutch, touch, keep him in. It has really given me a feel for being | :18:51. | :18:56. | |
back in the game, passing on my knowledge, and I can offer that to a | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
lot of youngsters. To be rock bottom and to really build it back up | :19:03. | :19:08. | |
again, I burst with pride is just to say how far Lee has come. What makes | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
me happy is seeing the kids playing outside with their dad. Now that I | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
have got that back, it is a breath of fresh air. I love him to bits. | :19:18. | :19:26. | |
That definitely won't change. Thank you to Lee and Emma were speaking so | :19:27. | :19:29. | |
candidly to us. What might we are being joined by an old friend of the | :19:30. | :19:36. | |
one show, Jonny. You made a film for us will stop you were about to take | :19:37. | :19:40. | |
your own life and a stranger came up and talked around, and now you spend | :19:41. | :19:43. | |
your time doing your best to help people in a similar situation to | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
yourself. The situation we have from Lee there, it's not unique, is it? | :19:49. | :19:52. | |
The majority of people who try to take their own lives are men. Lee is | :19:53. | :20:01. | |
so brave, and his wife is so brave. It's true. 75% of all suicides are | :20:02. | :20:08. | |
men. It is the biggest killer of men under 45. By having -- we have a | :20:09. | :20:16. | |
match our culture. We say, man up. Boys get that message. And they | :20:17. | :20:22. | |
think it is not OK to show emotion and be vulnerable. I believe it is | :20:23. | :20:32. | |
big cars -- not because you want to die. You want every thing to stop | :20:33. | :20:35. | |
for a minute. It annoys me when people say selfish. And it is often | :20:36. | :20:43. | |
the only option that people can see. The only way out. But it is | :20:44. | :20:49. | |
literally just wanting to stop a minute, not to die. Wanting the | :20:50. | :20:56. | |
painter M. We see Emma in that video, so confused and helpless. Are | :20:57. | :21:01. | |
there things that family members experiencing loved ones going | :21:02. | :21:03. | |
through this pain, things that they can say or do, or that they should | :21:04. | :21:09. | |
not say or do? The most important thing is to be empathetic, | :21:10. | :21:13. | |
supporter, and not give up on the person. Keep reminding them of | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
recovery. We don't hear that message enough when people are struggling | :21:19. | :21:21. | |
with mental health issues. You can get better. There are so many people | :21:22. | :21:24. | |
out there functioning with it. People need reminding. Don't say, | :21:25. | :21:31. | |
pull yourself together, or I've been through it as well. You wouldn't say | :21:32. | :21:34. | |
that to someone with something like cancer. You would be so much more | :21:35. | :21:39. | |
supportive if it was a physical issue, but this is no different to | :21:40. | :21:43. | |
any other part of the body. Jonny, do you still have dark times? What | :21:44. | :21:48. | |
helps you get through that? I still do. I had a relapse two months ago | :21:49. | :21:53. | |
and ended up back in hospital. Now, I try to think of it like my good | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
friend who has diabetes. She has bad periods, but then she goes to | :22:00. | :22:03. | |
hospital. She doesn't beat herself up, so why try not to, try to ask | :22:04. | :22:08. | |
for help and not be ashamed or embarrassed. I hate it when people | :22:09. | :22:13. | |
say it is a stigma. No, it's not. Hello. I'm not feeling very well, | :22:14. | :22:18. | |
and it's not just a couple of weeks. The message needs to change. It is | :22:19. | :22:23. | |
getting there. We have a long way to go. Rob me, things like therapy have | :22:24. | :22:27. | |
helped massively. For me, I take medicine. It has been a massive help | :22:28. | :22:38. | |
for me. You need a break from it sometimes, a bit of peace of mind. | :22:39. | :22:46. | |
And you can do it. Proud of you. And for those people who maybe don't | :22:47. | :22:49. | |
have a strong family around them and feel a bit alone watching this, what | :22:50. | :22:53. | |
is the best advice you can get? There is so much support out there. | :22:54. | :22:58. | |
If you don't want to go to your GP, there are so many amazing charities. | :22:59. | :23:05. | |
Mind, Calm, the Samaritans. It is 24 hours a day. There is so much | :23:06. | :23:12. | |
support, and you will be heard. And educate Duchess of Cornwall, Heads | :23:13. | :23:16. | |
Together. Which Is Amazing. Absolutely. We have put some links | :23:17. | :23:24. | |
on our website. Jonny, thanks for joining us. To refit. This Friday, | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
you can see Fern travelling through the Holy Land on a special | :23:31. | :23:34. | |
pilgrimage to places that feature in the Easter story. This is the | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
judgment gate. Beaten almost senseless. He had lost a lot of | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
blood, standing here. My goodness, wow! Obviously, as a Christian, I | :23:44. | :23:53. | |
have a belief, and also I understand people who say to me, totally | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
irrational nonsense, none of it happen. And yet, sitting here, and | :23:58. | :24:03. | |
it may be my brain playing a trick, but in me, I can feel something. I'm | :24:04. | :24:10. | |
not given to tears. This is a meaningful moment. | :24:11. | :24:19. | |
Where was that? On the outside of the walls of Jerusalem. The old city | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
is about a square kilometre and there are four square walls around | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
it. It is one of the outside walls, you will see those steps, and | :24:28. | :24:30. | |
everyone is walking past because they are not a religious shrine or | :24:31. | :24:37. | |
something that has been sanctioned. The archaeologist there, he is not | :24:38. | :24:42. | |
certain either, but it makes a kind of sense to him scientifically and | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
archaeologically that these were the steps into the Pontius Pilate's | :24:46. | :24:51. | |
Palace. And there would have been an archway but it has been bricked up | :24:52. | :24:56. | |
now. But through those steps, Jesus would have walked, and having had | :24:57. | :24:59. | |
his trial, he would have come out and stood on the steps, and the | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
crowd are all around asking to kill him. He had already been flayed with | :25:04. | :25:08. | |
whips, wearing his crown of thorns, he was exhausted, bleeding heavily. | :25:09. | :25:24. | |
And you've got this feeling... I am starting to feel it now, but I was | :25:25. | :25:28. | |
thinking, this could be where he stood, where he had the last view of | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
freedom. The scenery, the landscape, has barely changed. It was | :25:33. | :25:37. | |
incredible. What was the purpose, then, the whole journey, the | :25:38. | :25:40. | |
pilgrimage? The purpose of the trip, to me, Jesus the man, who existed, | :25:41. | :25:47. | |
is very interesting as a human being if you take out all that he was the | :25:48. | :25:52. | |
son of God. He was a human being living a very human life with his | :25:53. | :25:57. | |
family. And then everything became complicated for him. We don't know | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
what happened when he started preaching. And he wasn't very | :26:02. | :26:05. | |
well-known in Galilee, perhaps, and he arrived in Jerusalem and not many | :26:06. | :26:08. | |
people knew that he was coming, and I thought, as a person, how does | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
that journey feel? So we followed in his footsteps, and it got very... | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
You got the feeling of his sense of destiny that this was going to | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
happen, he was going to put himself through it. So, where else did it | :26:24. | :26:28. | |
take you? All through the city of Jerusalem. The nicest place was the | :26:29. | :26:33. | |
Garden of gas enemy, where he went after the Last Supper. | :26:34. | :26:44. | |
-- is the garden of Gethsemane. He was praying, saying, take this awful | :26:45. | :26:51. | |
burden away from me. And his friends all fell asleep. It was a human | :26:52. | :26:57. | |
situation. Whether things about the Easter story that you thought you | :26:58. | :27:06. | |
knew already that surprise you? -- were there things about the Easter | :27:07. | :27:10. | |
story... It would have been things about the traditional monks | :27:11. | :27:14. | |
clothing, like we would imagine, dark brown robes. Flip-flop sandals. | :27:15. | :27:18. | |
And in the winter, he would wear socks that had the whole divided so | :27:19. | :27:27. | |
that you could put your flip-flops on between your toes. It is that | :27:28. | :27:31. | |
kind of stuff. I am not a theologian and I am not the Archbishop of | :27:32. | :27:36. | |
Canterbury, clearly, but I find that whole... It is the small things | :27:37. | :27:40. | |
about religion that boost my faith, and I don't pretend to know | :27:41. | :27:45. | |
everything about everything. You mark your journey in quite an | :27:46. | :27:48. | |
unusual way. Or maybe not so unusual, because you already have | :27:49. | :27:56. | |
had tattoos in the past. I do. I think we have some footage of you | :27:57. | :28:00. | |
going through this. Did you have this in mind when you turned up? | :28:01. | :28:04. | |
Yeah, I knew that there was this family there who have been doing | :28:05. | :28:12. | |
tattoos for Knights Templars and people doing pilgrimages. 600 years | :28:13. | :28:17. | |
ago, and direct descendants are there doing it. Somebody said to me | :28:18. | :28:29. | |
the other day, is it your carpal tunnel? No, it's a little cross | :28:30. | :28:36. | |
which you have two show that you've done your pilgrimage. And the | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
important thing is, when you shake hands, they can see you've done your | :28:41. | :28:43. | |
pilgrimage, but also that you come in peace. Isn't that nice? A nice | :28:44. | :28:53. | |
note to finish on. Fern's Holy Land Journey is on this Friday morning at | :28:54. | :28:57. | |
9am. From any of us, the Easter weekend is a chance to catch up with | :28:58. | :29:01. | |
family, friends and enjoy a bit of relaxation, and maybe some | :29:02. | :29:07. | |
chocolate. Not so far Helen Glover and her husband, wildlife presenter | :29:08. | :29:10. | |
Steve Backshall. Their weekend will be anything but relaxing. Have a | :29:11. | :29:11. | |
look at this. Rio De seven months ago, in Rio, I | :29:12. | :29:23. | |
defended the Olympic title that I won in 2012. I was cheered on by | :29:24. | :29:34. | |
fiance, Steve Backshall. It was all about coming here in defending the | :29:35. | :29:38. | |
title. They have just been unbelievable. And now, I am about to | :29:39. | :29:42. | |
do all that winter training again, but this time with my husband, | :29:43. | :29:45. | |
Steve. We are taking on something that will test me and maybe our | :29:46. | :29:50. | |
relationship to the limit. I was twiddling my thumbs a bit after | :29:51. | :29:55. | |
Riou, and I wanted a challenge, so I wrote Steve into doing the devises | :29:56. | :30:01. | |
the West kayak race. He had done it before and I always wanted to do | :30:02. | :30:02. | |
something really different. The race travels 125 miles. | :30:03. | :30:15. | |
Non-stop. So the training is intense. We have only decided to do | :30:16. | :30:19. | |
this six weeks before the race. The other two times I have done it I | :30:20. | :30:25. | |
have had a year of training. So, six weeks isn't enough. We are now in | :30:26. | :30:28. | |
full-time training to get our bodies and minds ready. | :30:29. | :30:31. | |
As well as covering the miles in the kayak we are hitting the gym to | :30:32. | :30:36. | |
build the upper body and core strength we will need. | :30:37. | :30:40. | |
That's nice. Go on, just one more. Go on! For me, I will be learning an | :30:41. | :30:46. | |
entirely new discipline. Kayaking is totally new to me and lots of people | :30:47. | :30:49. | |
watch it and think it's very similar to rowing. In terms of the muscle | :30:50. | :30:53. | |
groups and the energy systems and the way you train it's actually | :30:54. | :30:58. | |
entirely different. But I am out of my comfort zone at the moment in a | :30:59. | :31:01. | |
kayak. I have never been in a kayak like this before. I need to get used | :31:02. | :31:09. | |
to it. There you go. During the race, I | :31:10. | :31:15. | |
will be steering and setting the pace. But at the moment just keeping | :31:16. | :31:22. | |
it stable is a problem. That was a disaster. I am not | :31:23. | :31:32. | |
feeling very confident right now. How far did we go? About 50 metres. | :31:33. | :31:41. | |
Just as important as our training is our diet. | :31:42. | :31:45. | |
Over the next few weeks we will be eating plenty of slow release cash | :31:46. | :31:49. | |
high driets and a large amount of fruit and veg which is easier to get | :31:50. | :31:52. | |
down if it's blended. How does it taste? How it looks. Like sludge. Do | :31:53. | :32:00. | |
you want mine, as well? No! To help us stay afloat we have opted | :32:01. | :32:04. | |
for a more stable boat. But this will make the race harder as it is | :32:05. | :32:08. | |
slower and heavier. Along the way there are 77 locks | :32:09. | :32:12. | |
where we will need to get out and carry the boat, running with it on | :32:13. | :32:16. | |
our shoulders. After two weeks of river training we are now covering | :32:17. | :32:19. | |
distances of over 20 miles in each session. | :32:20. | :32:22. | |
And they're starting to take their toll. My back is starting to hurt. | :32:23. | :32:27. | |
My hands are sore. It will be worse in the morning. Your shoulders are | :32:28. | :32:30. | |
going to hurt so bad in the morning. So far we have done our training on | :32:31. | :32:34. | |
the River Thames but the first 52 miles of the race are on the canal. | :32:35. | :32:38. | |
So we head to Newbury to start a session from there. This is what the | :32:39. | :32:41. | |
majority of the race is all about. It's very, very different from the | :32:42. | :32:45. | |
river, because there is no flow, it's flat water. Paddling on a canal | :32:46. | :32:50. | |
is much more difficult and after three-and-a-half hours with no | :32:51. | :32:53. | |
assistance from the flow I realise just how tough this challenge is | :32:54. | :32:58. | |
going to be. It's a wake-up call, isn't it? I found that quite hard. I | :32:59. | :33:02. | |
am really tired. The speed we were going today is the speed that we | :33:03. | :33:07. | |
need to do for 125 miles. I think if someone told me now to go on for | :33:08. | :33:11. | |
another half hour I would have got out of the boat. That was me done | :33:12. | :33:16. | |
today. But with the race getting ever closer we need to step up a | :33:17. | :33:20. | |
gear, which includes training at night. During the event this is when | :33:21. | :33:24. | |
a lot of people give up. I feel like I have started from scratch, just | :33:25. | :33:31. | |
being in the dark. It's a whole new ball game, it's disorientating. Half | :33:32. | :33:34. | |
the race is at night. Ten hours of paddling like this. We have a lot of | :33:35. | :33:39. | |
work to do, to be honest. We will be all right. What could possibly go | :33:40. | :33:45. | |
wrong! And Helen and Steve are here now. | :33:46. | :33:48. | |
Let's give them a big round of applause! | :33:49. | :33:52. | |
APPLAUSE Are you ready? No! Come on. As we | :33:53. | :33:58. | |
will ever be, we feel. What's the plan between now and the start of | :33:59. | :34:03. | |
the race? Eat lots. Eat lots of pasties and pie. It's going to be | :34:04. | :34:07. | |
great. The thing is it's 125 miles. You are going to try to do this in | :34:08. | :34:12. | |
24 hours. You don't really get a sense there, but it is a race, you | :34:13. | :34:14. | |
are racing against other competitors. How does that work? | :34:15. | :34:18. | |
Well, you can actually start when you want to. You can start on that | :34:19. | :34:22. | |
Saturday, people will be starting within a few hours of each other. So | :34:23. | :34:26. | |
we might spend a lot of the race on our own but might be around other | :34:27. | :34:29. | |
boats and in terms of being competitive, we are planning on just | :34:30. | :34:34. | |
finishing. Finishing will be a massive achievement. However, my | :34:35. | :34:37. | |
competitive instinct tends to kick in whenever there is another crew | :34:38. | :34:48. | |
around. I am going to have to try to rerein myself in. Have you got the | :34:49. | :34:52. | |
hang of it, being an Olympic champion you would think you would | :34:53. | :34:55. | |
be very good in a boat like that. And she is. After two weeks of | :34:56. | :34:59. | |
training she was where I would expect someone to be after a year or | :35:00. | :35:04. | |
even more of training. Now she's at a remarkable level. But our longest | :35:05. | :35:08. | |
training session has been five-and-a-half hours. That's such a | :35:09. | :35:11. | |
tiny percentage of the race. We don't know what's going to happen at | :35:12. | :35:16. | |
3am when we are cold and hungry and tired. I think she's going to be | :35:17. | :35:19. | |
amazing but you never know. What is it like to be doing this as a | :35:20. | :35:23. | |
couple? We saw you there in the gym. Brilliant training partners, the | :35:24. | :35:26. | |
pair of you, really fit. You must have a great time. It's good fun. | :35:27. | :35:31. | |
But I think that we are probably going to see a true side of each | :35:32. | :35:35. | |
other in the middle of the night when you have been paddling, you are | :35:36. | :35:38. | |
absolutely kind of on your last legs and still have hours to go. It will | :35:39. | :35:42. | |
be interesting. Come on, you are obsessed with each other, it's | :35:43. | :35:45. | |
lovely to see! It is lovely to see. There is a good | :35:46. | :35:48. | |
reason why you are doing this and it's not just about bringing the | :35:49. | :35:52. | |
pair of you together. Exactly. I have been working with a charity | :35:53. | :35:56. | |
called The World Land Trust, and we buy up vulnerable portions of forest | :35:57. | :36:00. | |
and protect them and what we are doing is, we are going to buy a | :36:01. | :36:05. | |
slice of a rainforest in Borneo and if we don't buy it, it will get cut | :36:06. | :36:13. | |
down for plantations, it's a vital patch of forest. The opportunity to | :36:14. | :36:18. | |
buy and protect this land is just enormous. So, that's a big part of | :36:19. | :36:22. | |
the reason we were going we need to do something massive to try and get | :36:23. | :36:26. | |
the attention and get the cash rolling in and it has been. I think | :36:27. | :36:29. | |
it's going to be a massive success. Obviously you need the money but | :36:30. | :36:32. | |
when do you hope to get your hands on it then, what's the plan? It | :36:33. | :36:37. | |
needs to be done before August. Really the main, the target of the | :36:38. | :36:41. | |
fundraising is now, it's because the place is such a fantastic wildlife | :36:42. | :36:45. | |
corridor. It's a perfect place for animals to disperse. By purchasing | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
this area of land and protecting it we are really saving it for all the | :36:50. | :36:52. | |
animals that live there. Well, before you go we are going to look | :36:53. | :36:56. | |
at that moment where you were in tears in Rio. Let's have a look at | :36:57. | :37:02. | |
it. To me this sums it all up. Obviously, trying to retain that | :37:03. | :37:07. | |
title. Helen means so much to everybody and family and that | :37:08. | :37:10. | |
sacrifice. I love the fact it was captured. Often you don't see that | :37:11. | :37:13. | |
finish line reaction from friends and family. Like you say, they see | :37:14. | :37:18. | |
you at your worst through the hard times and so, I love the fact... She | :37:19. | :37:23. | |
loves the fact it was captured because she is talking about it | :37:24. | :37:27. | |
endlessly! Aren't we all. Quickly before you go, Dave, are you there? | :37:28. | :37:32. | |
We have some night vision goggles. Here you are. Thank you! I am sure | :37:33. | :37:36. | |
there will be tears of joy in your eyes again, Steve. Bring it on. We | :37:37. | :37:45. | |
wish you all the very best. We will keep everyone up to date with you | :37:46. | :37:50. | |
how you get on. OK. From their challenge to a challenge that we | :37:51. | :37:53. | |
have going on here outside. Feast your eyes on this. This is Europe's | :37:54. | :38:00. | |
biggest inflatable obstacle course. It is indeed. This section is the | :38:01. | :38:04. | |
danger zone, it has slides, a wall and hanging things. It's one section | :38:05. | :38:08. | |
of the course that it ten pieces in total. When fully assembled it | :38:09. | :38:14. | |
measures a whopping five kilometres from start to finish. We did ask | :38:15. | :38:19. | |
Fern and Pearl and Sharleen to take part in this but they all said we | :38:20. | :38:23. | |
have somebody better that can do it for us. We all know some talented | :38:24. | :38:26. | |
people. Fern, let's start with you at the end. Who have you asked? This | :38:27. | :38:33. | |
is Joel, he has better hair than anybody, better muscles and on | :38:34. | :38:38. | |
Easter Monday he is doing the world coal carrying championships. He is | :38:39. | :38:45. | |
carrying 250 kilo sacks of coal which is heavier than he is. I am | :38:46. | :38:55. | |
thinking he is a strong contender. Pearl, who have you asked? I have | :38:56. | :39:03. | |
Petrica Catalina taking part in the Hedley Barrel Race on Monday. I am | :39:04. | :39:08. | |
going to be there on Monday doing the barrel race. We have agility on | :39:09. | :39:12. | |
our side. We have speed. I think we are going to do this. Definitely | :39:13. | :39:20. | |
will do. Sharleen, we can see. We are a team. We are actually a team. | :39:21. | :39:27. | |
That's why we - we talked tactics. I did the obstacle course. I fell off | :39:28. | :39:36. | |
and hurt my ankle! Did you get a chocolate egg, because that's the | :39:37. | :39:40. | |
whole idea? I didn't. If I could ask the team captains to step to the | :39:41. | :39:43. | |
side and at the end of the course there is a chocolate egg. It's the | :39:44. | :39:50. | |
first one to pick up the chocolate egg who will receive this | :39:51. | :39:56. | |
wonderful... Come on! There you are, are you ready? OK. In three, two, | :39:57. | :40:05. | |
one, go for it! Angela's taken a stormer. Joel's | :40:06. | :40:10. | |
gone for it. I can't keep up. Joel's through, he is up the ladder! That's | :40:11. | :40:17. | |
how you win an Easter egg hunt. All the way down. He looks behind him, | :40:18. | :40:26. | |
where is everyone else? Hang on a minute! Unbelievable! We were going | :40:27. | :40:34. | |
to ask to you get the egg of your t-shirt. The thing is Joel's colour | :40:35. | :40:44. | |
blind. Joel takes it. There you are. Joel and Fern, huge congratulations. | :40:45. | :40:56. | |
I didn't hear that! I have the golden egg. Are you all right, | :40:57. | :41:04. | |
Angela? It was a good race. If you fancy having a go at this giant | :41:05. | :41:07. | |
obstacle course you can, it's on tour all around the UK. You can also | :41:08. | :41:12. | |
sign up to do it for Children in Need which is always a great cause, | :41:13. | :41:20. | |
by going to bbc.co.uk/Pudsey. And then there was calm. I will do this | :41:21. | :41:26. | |
while Angela gets her breath back. Kate McIntyre has gone | :41:27. | :41:28. | |
window-shopping, not to look at clothes, just the dummies wearing | :41:29. | :41:37. | |
them. Mannequins, for some they're the | :41:38. | :41:41. | |
stuff of nightmares. Think of them in Doctor Who and it's not hard to | :41:42. | :41:45. | |
see why. But back in the real world they've been stirring things up too. | :41:46. | :41:55. | |
The average UK dress size is a 16. But last week this line-up of | :41:56. | :42:01. | |
superskinny mannequins opened up the debate about body image again. Roz | :42:02. | :42:06. | |
runs a supply business and has an extensive collection from over the | :42:07. | :42:11. | |
years. The first mannequins were people themselves. They would stand | :42:12. | :42:15. | |
in for dress-making and then it worked on that people would make | :42:16. | :42:20. | |
them out of papier mache and wax. When did we first see them on high | :42:21. | :42:25. | |
streets? Around about 1920s. They came in when clothes started to be | :42:26. | :42:31. | |
more mass produced. When did the shape of female mannequins change? | :42:32. | :42:33. | |
They've always had different shapes to them if they're catering for a | :42:34. | :42:38. | |
younger market, they're going to be a different shape. For ladies | :42:39. | :42:42. | |
considered plus-size, bigger sizes, they don't really have faces any | :42:43. | :42:47. | |
more. They've become more of a clothes horse, rather than a | :42:48. | :42:50. | |
representation of an actual person. Why do we only see skinny | :42:51. | :42:56. | |
mannequins? Because they're a size that is easy for samples to be made. | :42:57. | :43:00. | |
Every now and then you do get a very, very skinny mannequin that is | :43:01. | :43:05. | |
the proportions which are not even artistic. That's because they're | :43:06. | :43:10. | |
cheap mannequins, they've not been made by an established manufacturer | :43:11. | :43:14. | |
and there are copies of a copy of a copy. Most female mannequins we see | :43:15. | :43:19. | |
in shops today are typically a size 8-10. So what will shoppers in | :43:20. | :43:24. | |
Nottingham make of these body shapes? Not very realistic and not a | :43:25. | :43:28. | |
good image. I have a three-year-old girl at home and I am trying to | :43:29. | :43:32. | |
teach her to have a positive body image. I feel if they had bigger | :43:33. | :43:36. | |
mannequins, maybe bigger people would have an idea of what the | :43:37. | :43:39. | |
clothes would look like on them. We are all used to seeing the slim | :43:40. | :43:44. | |
mannequins. That one seems unusual. You don't usually see a rounder | :43:45. | :43:48. | |
figure. Unusual because it's closer to the average woman? Yeah. You | :43:49. | :43:54. | |
never see a short person mannequins. What effect do you think the super | :43:55. | :43:59. | |
skinny mannequin will have on young shoppers looking for clothes? Not | :44:00. | :44:02. | |
great obviously, because this is the shape you should be to wear our | :44:03. | :44:05. | |
clothes, they might feel they can't wear something that they feel good | :44:06. | :44:07. | |
in. So, if some customers are getting | :44:08. | :44:11. | |
offended it sounds as though the shops must be doing something wrong. | :44:12. | :44:15. | |
Yeah, definitely. They're not being styled properly. The correct | :44:16. | :44:19. | |
mannequin is not being used. It's all about displaying the clothes in | :44:20. | :44:24. | |
the best way, showing off those sample sizes and showing people how | :44:25. | :44:27. | |
to style clothes who really don't have an idea of how to style clothes | :44:28. | :44:37. | |
themselves. I look at the clothes. I would buy a mannequin if I could. | :44:38. | :44:43. | |
I have never been a big fan of mannequins. Have you? I like them. | :44:44. | :44:49. | |
LAUGHTER . I wish I was one right there. I am | :44:50. | :44:54. | |
still out of breath. I need to go to the gym more! Shoving, is it right | :44:55. | :45:01. | |
that your mum was a window dresser? She was. Did you have dummies in | :45:02. | :45:10. | |
your house? We had a few dummies are now has! We used to come in from | :45:11. | :45:15. | |
school and my mum would be like, we are making flowers, paper flowers or | :45:16. | :45:19. | |
pom-poms or whatever. When it comes to Christmas decorating, I am a dab | :45:20. | :45:24. | |
hand. Nicer grow up with that creativity. It is good. My sister | :45:25. | :45:32. | |
and I used to get dragged in. My mum still teaches us and the grandkids. | :45:33. | :45:35. | |
My mum taught me how to crochet about a month ago. Fern, you have | :45:36. | :45:42. | |
two young daughters, grace and Winnie - do you find that body image | :45:43. | :45:49. | |
is an issue you have to talk about? They are very well aware of it all. | :45:50. | :45:54. | |
They are very good. Although the weekly ladies magazines are full of | :45:55. | :45:58. | |
that nonsense, they read them but knowing it is nonsense. And of | :45:59. | :46:02. | |
course, they love doing all that shopping and looking at things. One | :46:03. | :46:06. | |
is nearly 16 and one is 19, nearly 20, so they are getting on now. But | :46:07. | :46:11. | |
they have got brains and they understand, but that doesn't mean to | :46:12. | :46:17. | |
say... There are moments when they go, IAA lug really terrible and I am | :46:18. | :46:21. | |
having a bad day and none of my clothes Fitbit. That awful female | :46:22. | :46:38. | |
thing. -- none of my clothes fit me. It is about keeping it real. It is a | :46:39. | :46:42. | |
mannequin. Some of them are six feet tall. You're looking at them, and I | :46:43. | :46:46. | |
don't know that many people who at that height. And I think that as | :46:47. | :46:50. | |
parents, we need to impress on them that they are gorgeous. They can do | :46:51. | :46:54. | |
anything they want and they are gorgeous. Your daughter, does she | :46:55. | :46:58. | |
enjoy your music? You've got this new album coming out. I think she's | :46:59. | :47:07. | |
very proud. She came along and saw as showcase that we did last week. | :47:08. | :47:12. | |
She was smiling. I think she likes the guest list places that I can get | :47:13. | :47:15. | |
her, if I'm really honest! I think she's more into that. She is into | :47:16. | :47:24. | |
Kei pop. I am a bit confused by what she says to me sometimes. That is | :47:25. | :47:32. | |
happening just now. Jump On Board - 30 years you have been writing, so | :47:33. | :47:35. | |
is it hard to come up with fresh themes? You know what, you meet so | :47:36. | :47:40. | |
many interesting people, and I enjoy life. Fern has known me for a | :47:41. | :47:47. | |
million years. Bee did you say I have been around for 1 million | :47:48. | :47:55. | |
years? And me! -- did you say I have been around for 1 million years? | :47:56. | :48:05. | |
People and stories, it keeps filling you. Do you keep stories on the back | :48:06. | :48:14. | |
burner for the time when you are making an album? You never know when | :48:15. | :48:18. | |
you will access it. Sometimes stories come to light and you are | :48:19. | :48:22. | |
like, I forgot about that, and it comes out in a song. Sometimes, when | :48:23. | :48:28. | |
a song comes out, one of your mates will be like, is that about me? And | :48:29. | :48:34. | |
I am like, here we go. You wish it was about you! So you will be | :48:35. | :48:38. | |
touring the album and you will be on stage for a very significant | :48:39. | :48:43. | |
birthday. I am. We play Paris on my 50th. I am 50 this year. That's | :48:44. | :48:48. | |
great. Do you think that is good planning? Yes! It would be, but we | :48:49. | :48:55. | |
are doing three nights in Paris, and I am on the first night, which I | :48:56. | :49:00. | |
thought was really bad planning. Maybe I could do three parties. Just | :49:01. | :49:07. | |
keep it going. Will the tour be a family affair? Bryn Williams, | :49:08. | :49:11. | |
recently engaged, what have you... Look at me, I will start blushing in | :49:12. | :49:16. | |
a minute! At my age! I got engaged recently. Yeah, first time I have | :49:17. | :49:22. | |
been engaged in first time I will be married. And he is a share. Years | :49:23. | :49:28. | |
indeed. When we go on tour, if there are any breaks, I am sure all of our | :49:29. | :49:35. | |
friends and family will come out for the big old birthday. Fern, you are | :49:36. | :49:42. | |
also married to a chef, do you have any advice? They are temperamental | :49:43. | :49:49. | |
creatures, aren't they? I think it's just... Always like what they have | :49:50. | :49:52. | |
cooked for you, whether you like it or not. If he says, do you like it, | :49:53. | :50:02. | |
do you like it? I do most of the cooking. It is a family thing. Foot | :50:03. | :50:07. | |
is important in the house, so you cook together and eat together. It | :50:08. | :50:17. | |
is a nice thing to do. What about me? | :50:18. | :50:22. | |
I don't think you would be short of offers! So you will be on tour... | :50:23. | :50:30. | |
We're right on the road. We are playing the Albert Hall. We're doing | :50:31. | :50:34. | |
some festivals. I want to say the 17th of September for the Albert | :50:35. | :50:38. | |
Hall, and we have three nights in Glasgow, playing at Kelvingrove | :50:39. | :50:42. | |
Park. Doing the Isle of Wight Festival, we're doing Chris's cart | :50:43. | :50:55. | |
biased -- car Fest. The album is out on the 21st of April. Before Texas | :50:56. | :50:59. | |
perform for us, we will do some gardening. Why not? We have done | :51:00. | :51:03. | |
everything else tonight. The speaker in the House of Commons Betty | :51:04. | :51:06. | |
Boothroyd brought order to Parliament until she left for | :51:07. | :51:10. | |
pastures new. Christine has been to see the garden she has no intention | :51:11. | :51:16. | |
of bringing to order. This is an informal garden, and one | :51:17. | :51:19. | |
that is slightly disjointed, and bearing in mind who the owner is, I | :51:20. | :51:30. | |
am slightly surprised. Order! Betty Boothroyd certainly did not like | :51:31. | :51:34. | |
this order in the Commons. It is 25 years since she became the first and | :51:35. | :51:38. | |
only female speaker, a post she held for eight years. We're in the middle | :51:39. | :51:44. | |
of Cambridgeshire, in a beautiful wild garden, but it is wild, and | :51:45. | :51:51. | |
that surprises me. Are you a keen gardener? You have the right word | :51:52. | :51:57. | |
when you say while. I'm a wild garden, lovely. I have a point of | :51:58. | :52:06. | |
order... I really should address you as Lady Boothroyd, but I have got a | :52:07. | :52:10. | |
cheeky question. May I call you Betty? Of course, most people do. I | :52:11. | :52:16. | |
find it very odd to be called baroness. Lady is a bit much too. | :52:17. | :52:23. | |
When I first came here about 30 years ago, I thought, what will I do | :52:24. | :52:29. | |
with this area? I had a few beds around the house, but all of this | :52:30. | :52:33. | |
was just grass and fields, so I thought, let's add daffodils. I | :52:34. | :52:37. | |
really feel that there are a lot of clubs are around -- clumps around | :52:38. | :52:44. | |
that have been here a long time. I am very good at delegating | :52:45. | :52:48. | |
responsibility. Are you aware, there are over 85 different species? And | :52:49. | :52:55. | |
over 29,000 different varieties? I thought you meant in my garden here. | :52:56. | :53:00. | |
You have a lot, but not quite that many! There is one special one, | :53:01. | :53:05. | |
isn't there are? There is, actually. It is a Madam Speaker daffodil. | :53:06. | :53:13. | |
There you are, named after you. It is described as robust, standing up | :53:14. | :53:16. | |
to the elements, admired by most people. If you are going to ask me | :53:17. | :53:21. | |
where it is, your eyes are better than mine. It might have been and | :53:22. | :53:28. | |
gone. I think it has. With or without daffodils, I doubt this | :53:29. | :53:31. | |
rambling landscape has changed in hundreds of years, longer I suspect | :53:32. | :53:36. | |
then the 13th century house. Betty has barbed wire right across the | :53:37. | :53:42. | |
garden. Trespassers must be a problem. What is this about? | :53:43. | :53:55. | |
Rabbits, deer, which will eat anything, and moles. Do you have | :53:56. | :54:04. | |
much experience of gardening? Is not at all, because I was born in a poor | :54:05. | :54:09. | |
family. I went and picked dandelions, put them in a vase. And | :54:10. | :54:13. | |
my mother said, what is that? She was not chuffed at all. I have | :54:14. | :54:17. | |
always liked flowers, always been interested in gardening but I was | :54:18. | :54:23. | |
never brought up with it. Betty was an only child, and the family lived | :54:24. | :54:27. | |
in a back-to-back in a Yorkshire mill town. Her parents were textile | :54:28. | :54:31. | |
workers, but her father was unemployed for years. Yellow might I | :54:32. | :54:34. | |
thought, there's something better than this in life. We have to make | :54:35. | :54:40. | |
changes. -- I thought, there's something better than this in life. | :54:41. | :54:50. | |
It was a long one, actually. The name of the candidate elected is | :54:51. | :54:54. | |
Betty Boothroyd. It took me 13, 15 years, because I fought four | :54:55. | :54:59. | |
elections before being selected for West Bromwich in 1973. I just felt, | :55:00. | :55:06. | |
well, this is really something, this is my destiny, what I want to do. | :55:07. | :55:11. | |
You have the reputation of being a bit of a bossy boots - was that | :55:12. | :55:16. | |
there? I don't think so. I think I'm a softy! Order! The honourable | :55:17. | :55:22. | |
gentleman will resume his seat immediately. Immediately! It do you | :55:23. | :55:28. | |
think you had more control in the Commons than you do over your | :55:29. | :55:35. | |
garden? That's for sure. I can control human beings but not | :55:36. | :55:39. | |
wildlife. Some people don't like the rambling nature of a woodland | :55:40. | :55:46. | |
garden. As Betty would say, in this world, the eyes have it. | :55:47. | :55:55. | |
Thank you to all of our guests this evening. You can see Fern's journey | :55:56. | :56:00. | |
on Friday morning, and Doctor Who starts on Saturday night, both on | :56:01. | :56:05. | |
BBC One. Tomorrow, we will be joined by the stars of the new film, The | :56:06. | :56:09. | |
Hatton Garden Job, Larry Lamb and Phil Daniels. Now from their new | :56:10. | :56:13. | |
album, Jump On Board, this is Texas. # Try, try to figure out what it all | :56:14. | :56:26. | |
means # As the sun sets on your suburbia | :56:27. | :56:39. | |
and dream # If you loved her you'd hate her to | :56:40. | :56:47. | |
be so free # And you know she's going to the | :56:48. | :56:59. | |
city with the bright lights - maybe you'll make it all right or just | :57:00. | :57:02. | |
stay home and cry # Why don't you tell her, tell | :57:03. | :57:07. | |
Batgirl? # You said for ever, ever | :57:08. | :57:17. | |
Taking over # You can never know what's real | :57:18. | :57:33. | |
# You know she's going out tonight to this city with the bright lights | :57:34. | :57:42. | |
# Maybe you'll go down there and make it all right or just stay home | :57:43. | :57:44. | |
and cry # Why don't you tell her, tell how? | :57:45. | :57:52. | |
-- tell Batgirl # You said for ever, ever | :57:53. | :58:03. | |
#... Hello, I'm Sarah Campbell | :58:04. | :58:42. | |
with your 90 second update. The deaths of at least seven | :58:43. | :59:17. | |
babies at an NHS Trust Five died because their heart rates | :59:18. | :59:20. | |
weren't properly monitored. The Health Secretary has now ordered | :59:21. | :59:23. | |
a review of the Shrewsbury | :59:24. | :59:26. |
