:00:41. > :00:49.Hello! Welcome to The One Show. Well, it may be Friday 13th but we
:00:50. > :00:55.are hoping that the guest presenter tonight has had enough bad luck for
:00:56. > :01:00.one day. Everybody, it is king of The Chase it is Bradley Walsh. Are
:01:01. > :01:03.you feeling lucky tonight? I am, the fact that I am working with you,
:01:04. > :01:09.Alex. That's a good start. The right thing
:01:10. > :01:13.to say. Joining us in the studio, me may have gone deep undercorp for his
:01:14. > :01:17.new serious but tonight we have the real, Adrian Lester.
:01:18. > :01:23.Nice to see you. Welcome, Adrian, nice to see you.
:01:24. > :01:29.You must be pleased after winning the Premiership last weekend...
:01:30. > :01:34.Sorry, wrong Leicester! I was wondering where you were going with
:01:35. > :01:40.that? Are you superstitious? No, I am not but many actors are.
:01:41. > :01:46.You are not allowed to whistle? No, not at all, as the sailors operated
:01:47. > :01:50.the rigging, fanned you whistled back stage, you may drop something
:01:51. > :01:58.or hurt an actor. A Scottish plane... Yes, that
:01:59. > :02:06.instead of Mmmm, yeah. So, you don't do it, over the three
:02:07. > :02:13.drains, saluting magpie, all of that? Are you superstitious? Yeah, I
:02:14. > :02:18.am superstitious. I always salute a magpie. It is
:02:19. > :02:24.easy, just do it. Has one magpie saluted you back? No!
:02:25. > :02:28.Well, some are more superstitious than others but we all have fingers
:02:29. > :02:39.crossed that our musician can take on the challenge we have set him.
:02:40. > :02:46.Please, welcome Beardyman! You know one thing I have noticed about
:02:47. > :02:58.Beardyman, he does not have a beard. Can we call you Shaving
:02:59. > :04:28.Jon Platt travelled from the Isle of Wight to London for the hearing. Did
:04:29. > :04:35.he get permission to go from the school? Who knows? Here's Nick
:04:36. > :04:42.Wallis. Businessmen Jon Platt is preparing for what could be his most
:04:43. > :04:46.expensive business trip ever. Find ?120 for taking his seven-year-old
:04:47. > :04:51.daughter out of school to go on holiday, you refused to pay? And
:04:52. > :04:54.locked in a legal battle not of my choosing. He's travelling from his
:04:55. > :04:59.home on the Isle of Wight to the High Court in London to fight it. If
:05:00. > :05:03.the decision goes against him, he could face court costs of more than
:05:04. > :05:08.?20,000. If I lose, I will suck it up.
:05:09. > :05:13.Jon Platt's troubles began when he took a family holiday to Florida in
:05:14. > :05:18.term time. They will get a great experience.
:05:19. > :05:24.Have quality family time. Going back to school happy and motivated.
:05:25. > :05:28.If there is a child out of class, it is unsettling, the child comes back
:05:29. > :05:34.to the class, talking about the holiday, the parents see it as
:05:35. > :05:38.unfair? In the last few months, I have been inundated with messages
:05:39. > :05:42.from teachers and head teachers with a different view. They think it is
:05:43. > :05:46.valuable for children to go on holidays.
:05:47. > :05:52.But many disagree. Jon Platt admits he is stubborn. He
:05:53. > :05:57.is adamant that the law only needs to attend school regularly. Which
:05:58. > :06:01.his daughter does. The Isle of Wight council doesn't agree and wants the
:06:02. > :06:04.decision clarified. This decision is important for every
:06:05. > :06:08.parent in England. It's the morning of the court case.
:06:09. > :06:12.An hour to go, how are you feeling? Apprehensive. Looking forward to get
:06:13. > :06:20.in there. Hoping it goes well. Let's go.
:06:21. > :06:26.This shows how much of a nerve Jon's case touched. 80,000 parents were
:06:27. > :06:29.fined for pupil absence, including Jackie Turner, who took her
:06:30. > :06:35.daughter, backpacking for three weeks. Paying ?600 in fines and
:06:36. > :06:41.court costs. But no-one has gone this far to fight the fines.
:06:42. > :06:49.There are intense legal arguments going on in there. But it boiling
:06:50. > :06:53.down to one thing: If Jon wins, thousands of parents in England will
:06:54. > :06:57.be able to take their children on holiday during term time without
:06:58. > :07:00.fear of prosecution. Results time, it is victory for Jon
:07:01. > :07:05.Platt, he should not have been fined.
:07:06. > :07:08.Absolutely I'm delighted with the outcome of the case, as will
:07:09. > :07:14.hundreds of thousands of parents across England. We have lived with a
:07:15. > :07:18.situation where taking a kids on a family holiday, amounted to a
:07:19. > :07:22.criminal offence across the country. I have to do something with The One
:07:23. > :07:26.Show... I think that the law is perfect. I think there is nothing
:07:27. > :07:31.wrong with the law. The law doesn't need to be changed. The law is
:07:32. > :07:35.clear. If your kids go to school regularly, you can take them on
:07:36. > :07:41.holiday in term time. The Government is to look at the law
:07:42. > :07:46.but adds that the attendance at school is nonnegotiable.
:07:47. > :07:50.Thank you very much to Jon. The ruling only applies in England. In
:07:51. > :07:54.Northern Ireland, parents are not fined for taking children on holiday
:07:55. > :08:02.in term time. In Wales they can go on holiday for up to ten days with
:08:03. > :08:04.the head's permission. In Scotland, term time counterpart
:08:05. > :08:09.as holidays. It is up to the council to decide on
:08:10. > :08:13.their sanctions. The lady that took her child
:08:14. > :08:18.backpacking, you you are able to learn more... Yes, depending on
:08:19. > :08:23.where the holiday is. There is an argument for it.
:08:24. > :08:28.If you are travelling around Adrian, you are going to have fun. Adrian,
:08:29. > :08:33.you have a couple of girls have you taken them out of school to go on
:08:34. > :08:37.holiday? A couple of times but in primary school. Secary school it is
:08:38. > :08:42.a different ball game. It is more serious. There was a point where we
:08:43. > :08:46.took the kids out of school for a week but my eldest attended school
:08:47. > :08:50.in New York, which is where we were. We were working away from home.
:08:51. > :08:57.What an experience for her. Yes. Last time you were here,
:08:58. > :09:00.Adrian, you were about to start in a stage play called Red Velvet,
:09:01. > :09:05.telling how much you loved being in theatre. So Undercover is an
:09:06. > :09:10.exception for you? It is. It is the only time I have had the complexity
:09:11. > :09:17.of role that I normally find on stage, on screen. The character of
:09:18. > :09:22.Nick, the emotional weight of the piece, my scenes with Sophie and so
:09:23. > :09:26.on. Whether he is lying or telling the truth, all of that stuff. I
:09:27. > :09:31.normally only get to play that kind of character on stage.
:09:32. > :09:35.Well, we have an exclusive look at a clip from the last episode on
:09:36. > :09:39.Sunday. Let's have a look. You need someone at the heart of the
:09:40. > :09:57.story on the inside, gathering all of the evidence. You... I am on your
:09:58. > :10:10.side. I can work for you now. They trust you. All you have to do is...
:10:11. > :10:19.Trust me. APPLAUSE.
:10:20. > :10:23.You mentioned Sophie, you work incredible yes well together on this
:10:24. > :10:25.but you were at college together weren't you? Yes.
:10:26. > :10:33.Was it weird playing husband and wife? It was strange. Sophie was the
:10:34. > :10:40.year below me at RADA, she was the same year as my wife. I got to know
:10:41. > :10:46.her at RADA and others in her year, so to work with her all of these
:10:47. > :10:51.years later is good. Peter Mofatt writes a lot of crime
:10:52. > :10:57.stuff. Did he use past cases of people going undercover? Oh, yes,
:10:58. > :11:02.yes. He was fired up to write this drama because of what he had read in
:11:03. > :11:06.the #234u7 and what he had seen in documentaries. Peter is vocal about
:11:07. > :11:11.it. It made him angry that the police would take the liberty of
:11:12. > :11:14.abusing the power that they had by putting people undercover and having
:11:15. > :11:19.them marry the people that they were spying on. Having children with
:11:20. > :11:23.people, and not telling them the truth, not tell them who they were.
:11:24. > :11:28.And then disappear when the assignment came to an end. To invent
:11:29. > :11:31.a dead or dying relative or mental health problems in order to get
:11:32. > :11:35.extracted and get away from the situation.
:11:36. > :11:40.What was your approach to play a character like this? Did you do
:11:41. > :11:44.research and spend time with people undercover in real life? No, I
:11:45. > :11:49.didn't spend time with anybody. I did a lot of reading. For the way
:11:50. > :11:55.that the drama works, I concentrated on Nick as a father. The emotional
:11:56. > :12:02.weight of what my Charles Kennedy goes through is from the
:12:03. > :12:09.relationship with his weight and children -- the emotional weight of
:12:10. > :12:12.what my character does. Have you watched yourself back
:12:13. > :12:17.having been directed in stuff like this and thought you could have done
:12:18. > :12:24.it better? All the time! All the time! Well, the wait is finally over
:12:25. > :12:29.on Sunday when the final episode of Undercover is on BBC One at 9.00pm.
:12:30. > :12:32.If you missed the series, the DVD is out next week.
:12:33. > :12:36.Good plug. Beardyman is over there making our
:12:37. > :12:41.exclusive track using sounds from the show tonight. How are you
:12:42. > :12:50.getting on? Very well, thank you. I'm good but you have a lot on your
:12:51. > :12:55.plate? Do you need any more sounds? Whatever you want to give me.
:12:56. > :13:03.I will count you down. 3, 2, 1, hit it.
:13:04. > :13:07.MUSIC: BEAT BOX.
:13:08. > :13:13.Oh, Adrian, hello. That is good. Brilliant. Not as good as him! That
:13:14. > :13:25.was great. It was better than mine.
:13:26. > :13:29.Do yours! See... One of the techniques that Beardyman is using
:13:30. > :13:35.is backmasking. Back scratching is good... No, no,
:13:36. > :13:41.back masking. Here is Richard Mainwaring to explain.
:13:42. > :13:46.50 years after being released, Beatles album, Revolve eris as fresh
:13:47. > :13:52.as ever. The group's 7th album marked a new direction. And the fans
:13:53. > :13:58.loved it. There were tracks including
:13:59. > :14:03.favourites like Yellow Submarine, Eleanor Rigby and Taxman. But I'm
:14:04. > :14:08.interested in some of the songs from the 1966 recording session, the ones
:14:09. > :14:15.that used back masking. Back masking is the tech technique
:14:16. > :14:25.of recording an instrument or vocal backwards. It is all over Revolver.
:14:26. > :14:34.It produces an ethey areal sound. Evident on the vocals at the end of
:14:35. > :14:39.Rain, recorded in the same session. -- etheral sound.
:14:40. > :14:46.There is a debate as to who came up with it John Lennon says he took a
:14:47. > :14:53.tape home, played it a little worse for wear, and played it backwards.
:14:54. > :14:57.And loved the sound. George Martin, an expert on sound effects said
:14:58. > :15:03.there was a space there. He thought of flipping the tape over. He put it
:15:04. > :15:10.in, John Lennon loved it. Was it John, George? We will never know.
:15:11. > :15:14.But how does it work in the studio? Take I'm Only Sleeping. It has lots
:15:15. > :15:20.of tracks laid over each other. Then you have to figure out the backwards
:15:21. > :15:24.melody. You have to capture the other worldly sound that playing
:15:25. > :15:29.something backwards produces. So you have to put everything you recorded
:15:30. > :15:32.together, listen to it backwards and try to find the impro-isation to
:15:33. > :15:40.match. The solo on I'm Only Sleeping, that
:15:41. > :15:44.is a composed backwards solo. George Harrison, instead of playing
:15:45. > :15:49.randomly, and saying it sounds nice, he chose it in a line but backwards.
:15:50. > :15:54.That is a difficult process. That is a six or a seven-hour session. The
:15:55. > :15:59.chief engineer said it was a long day. My take is that it is pleased
:16:00. > :16:02.that George Harrison took the time. We got a beautiful piece of music.
:16:03. > :16:14.This is what I recorded... AND this is what it sounds like
:16:15. > :16:23.reversed... # When I'm in the middle of a dream
:16:24. > :16:28.# Stay in bed... Not bad. The Beatles didn't have the original
:16:29. > :16:32.idea for this. Thomas Edison, inventor of the phonograph, found
:16:33. > :16:38.that rotating a cylinder backwards made a still melodious suite and
:16:39. > :16:46.novel sound. Before that, Mozart is the composer attributed to a mirror
:16:47. > :16:50.duet where the tee Micha since -- two musicians play the same piece of
:16:51. > :16:56.music, but one of them plays it upside down and backwards. The light
:16:57. > :17:00.full. The Beatles popularised this backwards technique, and now there
:17:01. > :17:05.is a multitude of examples in modern music. Backmasking has been used in
:17:06. > :17:12.many different ways in the last 50 years since Revolver. The Who, The
:17:13. > :17:17.Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix. The Stone Roses tried to evoke the
:17:18. > :17:25.psychedelic feel the Beatles presented. We happy song Waterfall,
:17:26. > :17:32.and then Don't Stop, which is Waterfall flipped over. US rock band
:17:33. > :17:35.Tool has been plagued by censorship with people looking for dark
:17:36. > :17:40.messages in their lyrics. They pulled a fast one on the song
:17:41. > :17:48.Intention. They used backmasking and it sounded quite demotic. It says,
:17:49. > :17:53.work hard, stay in school. It's something that isn't exactly what
:17:54. > :17:58.the sensors would be looking for. As with so much of modern music, you
:17:59. > :18:01.have to go backwards to the greats before you can go forwards. Thank
:18:02. > :18:10.you to Mozart, Edison and the Beatles. STUDIO: And thank you
:18:11. > :18:14.Richard. Lucy is with us now for some backchat these so-called
:18:15. > :18:19.subliminal messages, they have caused a storm in the past.
:18:20. > :18:25.Goodness, yes. Through the 70s, progressive rock and the heavy metal
:18:26. > :18:31.era, right into the 90s, it kind of caused a moral panic in parts of the
:18:32. > :18:37.US. And social groups, particularly the Christian right were looking for
:18:38. > :18:41.subliminal messaging especially in heavy-metal albums. Some states came
:18:42. > :18:44.quite close to legislating against it. Albums would have had to have
:18:45. > :18:51.stickers on the front cover is saying it contains subliminal
:18:52. > :18:59.messaging. In Arkansas and California. And in Arkansas it
:19:00. > :19:08.almost became law. Until one senator refused. It was Bill Clinton.
:19:09. > :19:17.Backwards, that's Notlinc. Tell us about Judas Priest. In 1985 two men
:19:18. > :19:26.entered into a suicide pact. One of them shot himself, and the other
:19:27. > :19:31.into a coma but recovered. They said that they had been influenced by
:19:32. > :19:36.Judas Priest album. The family brought a lawsuit against Judas
:19:37. > :19:39.Priest and in 1990 we had a bizarre and surreal situation where Judas
:19:40. > :19:44.Priest went to court in Nevada wearing suits rather than their
:19:45. > :19:47.customary black leather, and expert witnesses and the judge literally
:19:48. > :19:52.listened to their back catalogue forward and backward. At one point
:19:53. > :19:56.Rob Halford had to sing a cappella in the dock. The band wanted to show
:19:57. > :20:03.how ridiculous it was and an expert witness said he could see subliminal
:20:04. > :20:10.messaging in everything from the Sistine Chapel to Ritz crackers. If
:20:11. > :20:14.somebody tells you you can hear something in music played backwards,
:20:15. > :20:18.you usually can. This one is from the B-52s. We can play forward
:20:19. > :20:24.first. MUSIC: Detour Through
:20:25. > :20:36.Your Mind by The B52's. And we play it backwards.
:20:37. > :20:47.# Playing your rapid backwards, watch out. You might ruin your
:20:48. > :20:51.needle. This was deliberate. It was intentional and a joke, a take off
:20:52. > :20:57.of the whole subliminal messaging thing that is quite ridiculous. You
:20:58. > :20:58.might ruin your needle, for younger viewers, that means on your record
:20:59. > :21:03.player. Thank you! Now, what would a dog go
:21:04. > :21:05.to watch at the flicks? We've been coming up with dog
:21:06. > :21:10.film puns all afternoon. There is a dog cinema in Barking!
:21:11. > :21:19.Nice. I like this one. MUSIC: Misirlou by Dick
:21:20. > :21:23.Dale and The Deltones. MUSIC: Jurassic Park
:21:24. > :21:28.Theme by John Williams. MUSIC: Love Me Like You Do
:21:29. > :21:42.by Ellie Goulding. My personal favourite, 50 Shades of
:21:43. > :21:45.Greyhound. A sad. In his flat with no furniture.
:21:46. > :21:48.The reason we've been doing this is because Alex Riley has been
:21:49. > :21:50.to a very unusual cinema, that's opening its doors
:21:51. > :22:05.One adult and one dog these. A dog taking the leading role in a film is
:22:06. > :22:12.nothing new, Lassie, Snoopy and Beethoven are major stars in a own
:22:13. > :22:19.right. What is new to London's west end is a cinema showing films for
:22:20. > :22:26.dogs and their humans. Let's get some biscuits. OK Barley, let's see
:22:27. > :22:29.what the fuss is about. Daniel Andree is the cinema manager, he's
:22:30. > :22:33.on the left. What have you got planned? We have more than 50 dogs
:22:34. > :22:38.coming to watch a movie. What happens when 50 dogs get together,
:22:39. > :22:44.when two dogs come together they start biting and jumping on each
:22:45. > :22:48.other. We allocate an hour for the dogs to introduce themselves to each
:22:49. > :22:54.other. My dog can get very excited but as soon as she smells their
:22:55. > :23:01.bottom, she is fine. This is a scary bit, you might want to look away.
:23:02. > :23:05.DRAMATIC MUSIC We know dogs are great but they have
:23:06. > :23:11.a tendency to go to the toilet where ever they are. We have the seat
:23:12. > :23:15.covers, and the cleaning team are ready, and after the screening the
:23:16. > :23:25.screen is completely cleaned and flea treated. We have a person
:23:26. > :23:31.giving a massage to the dogs. How long can a dog concentrate on a film
:23:32. > :23:33.for? My dog will sleep through them, she is only interested for ten
:23:34. > :23:40.minutes will stop unless there are other dogs on screen. This popcorn
:23:41. > :23:51.is delicious. I'm going to get some more. See you in a minute.
:23:52. > :24:02.He loves the cinema! He can't have been before. She likes animal films,
:24:03. > :24:06.Lassie. What happens when Lassie comes on the screen? She goes up to
:24:07. > :24:10.the screen and has a look. This is the cinema, I'm not sure they would
:24:11. > :24:16.be happy with that. It's great for him to come to the cinema and be
:24:17. > :24:21.with me. If Barley was a serial Barker then I wouldn't even think
:24:22. > :24:27.about winning into an event like this. It's something you can do
:24:28. > :24:38.together as a family. Exactly. Enjoy the show. This dog friendly
:24:39. > :24:45.screening of Laurie Anderson's Heart of a Dog is part of a series of
:24:46. > :24:49.films celebrating the relationship people have with their four-legged
:24:50. > :24:57.friends. It's a film constructed as a car large of you sick and
:24:58. > :24:59.animation. Hope these dogs like it. I don't believe it, I've seen this
:25:00. > :25:15.one before! They seem to love it. I would love
:25:16. > :25:25.to take my Jack Russell. The time is nearly come for Beardyman's one The
:25:26. > :25:37.One Show remix. What are you doing in Edinburgh this year? It's Friday
:25:38. > :25:49.the 13th. BEATBOXING. CREEPY LAUGHING. That's amazing. Wow. Does
:25:50. > :25:55.it have time to go wrong? It never goes wrong! Where did your name
:25:56. > :26:02.Beardyman come from? I used to have a beard. I wish it was more exciting
:26:03. > :26:16.than that. You have this equipment here, it's the... Beardytron. It's
:26:17. > :26:21.what everyone who saw me called it. Nobody has ever done this on live
:26:22. > :26:24.television before. It's madness. If it doesn't work, blame me, blame the
:26:25. > :26:31.technology. And it's Friday the 13th. No superstitions it, you will
:26:32. > :26:42.be fine. We can have a listen. Take it away.
:26:43. > :26:54.# Nearly 50 years after it was first released, the Beatles album revolver
