13/11/2015 The One Show

Hello and welcome to the one show in the Queen Vic. We're kicking off the

big Children in Need night for 2015 and for the third year in a row,

we've set up shop or maybe I should say pub, here in Walford. It's

karaoke night at the Vic. Pudsey's doing the YMCA. And lots more famous

faces will be stepping up to that mic as the show progresses. Now, our

heroes, Team Rickshaw have cycled nearly 500 miles. They will be

arriving here later tonight. I'll be in "Cindy's Caff"having a chaff with

their parents at the end of what's been a really long week. The pub is

packed with celebs. We have got Nadine Coyle, file file file, Andre

-- Shane Filan, Peter Andre and Years, wetting their whistle.

Want to buy a Warwick Davis D-Day. Willow, Leprechaun or a sneak peek

at tonight's Star Wars exclusive. Keep Willow, but we'll have the Star

Wars exclusive. You've got it love. Over here, the lovely Ellie

Goulding. APPLAUSE

Lovely to see you. How are you? Very well, thank you. Very good. You

know, Queen Vic. It's known for murder. Fights, romance. All sorts,

yeah. Thinking about romance, it holds some really fond memories for

you, doesn't it? I sort of met my boyfriend here, weirdly. We haven't

been in EastEnders. Yeah, he's around somewhere in the background.

We met here. It was on this show two years ago, you and Dougy happened to

be here. And that was it. I eyed him out from across the pub basically

and that was it, yeah. Very nice. You are performing on the main show

tonight. Yeah. New album out last week. What single are you doing

tonight? Tonight a song called Army which I wrote about my best friend.

I haven't performed it on TV or anything before. I'm excited and

happy to be here. It's very exciting. I'm looking forward to it.

Thanks Ellie. We have our own band of brothers and sisters on the road.

They are Team Rickshaw. They've raised so much money. I'm sure,

yeah. Very cool. Fantastic job. Our viewers, as always, you've been so

generous, both financially and emotionally. These three ladies have

been very generous, donated lots of money. We've got June, Louise and

Rebecca here. June, you actually met up with Team Rickshaw before they

even started. Yes in Land's End. 50 quid got you a selfie with Matt

Baker! Absolutely. Did you ever think that last week, a week

down-the-line, you'd be in the Queen Vic? Absolutely not. Isn't this

brilliant? It's fantastic. It's quite quiet in here for a pub. I

think everybody's a bit nervous. Louise, what about you? You've

raised ?500. Not me personally. I work at Oak Manor Golf Club in

Taunton. The customers raised ?500. We were lucky announce have a selfie

with Elliott and George. There it is. Are you an EastEnders fan? Yes.

Not an avid fan, I watch, but not all the time. You've already got the

drinks in. Is that real beer? I'd like to think it is. Give it a

smell? It is. I'm not sure it is. We're not sure. Shame! Rebecca, you

organised a Hallowe'en party and raised ?50, why did you choose to do

that then, what was the idea behind it? It was because you wanted to

give something back because you'd seen Team Rickshaw. You're a big

EastEnders fan. We know that. Yeah I watch all the time. A little bird

told me that you quite liked Alfie Moon, is that right? Yes. And Lady

Di the dog? Yes. We'll see what we can do in terms of hooking you up

with those later. OK? Yeah. All right. As I said, our viewers have

been incredibly generous. Team Rickshaw are nearly at the end of

their journey. This morning, they still had another 60 miles to go.

It's the final day of our gruelling challenge. We've had highs... Lows.

I miss you. And unwaivering support along the way. His Thames Pudsey.

And the end is in sight. How are you feeling about this? Excited. But I'm

sad as well. When you think all those miles are now behind you. I

know. That's mad, hey? You'll never have to worry about another hill

again. I know! Erin who wakes up daily in agony from her arthritis

has been surprisingly helped by the rickshaw in ways we never imagined.

My knee's normally really swollen. Since I've been cycling, it's never

been so skinny. It's normally like a big balloon. Which must have come as

a massive surprise to you. I thought it was going to make it so much

worse, but it's actually not. Probably keep that up when I get

back. Yeah, yeah. George Griffiths from Richmond is a big lover of

musical theatre. I am directing a new musical which doesn't exist,

which now it does, rickshaw the musical. I'd like Michael Ball to

play me. LAUGHTER

His passage during the week has not only been musical, but full of

drama. Shall we stop again? Yeah? Yeah. And sometimes even full of

surprises. Hi George, it's Michael Ball here. How's the rickshaw

musical going. I might sing it myself. Go Team Rickshaw! Whoa.

That's Michael Ball, man. Thanks Michael. With a musical spring in

his step, George rode out this morning head held high. It's great,

I mean, I love being part of this. I've had a great time cycling beside

you. Thanks, Matt. Do you feel it's helped you in any way doing this? It

really has. It's given my confidence back. All my gang, all my teachers

and friends, they are so proud of me. You've proved to yourself that

you can do stuff. Yeah, I really can. In life. I am strong. I nailed

it. You did. As we near London, Team Rickshaw will take the challenge to

a whole new level. About 196 feet below the ground to be precise.

There's a part of the route that isn't on the map. Yeah? That's

because it hasn't been created yet. OK. We are going to cycle through

the cross-rail tunnel. Is it safe? It's safe. Let's do it. The

cross-rail project, which doesn't open until 2018, have invited us to

cycle through one of their tunnels. See ya! This is the way to get

through London, I tell you. So exciting. I'll tell you what the

weirdest experience is right now, it's the fact that we're cycling

along and people aren't giving us money. And as we reach the end of

the tunnel, the cross-rail workers don't let us down. Oh, thank you.

Thank you so much. APPLAUSE For six courageous and

inspiring young riders, this year's Rickshaw Challenge has been a

magnificent experience. Their effort to raise money for Children in Need

has to be applauded, all of Team Rickshaw is extremely greatful for

your Jen -- grateful for your generosity and support along the

way. Thank you so very much. They will complete that epic journey

of 477 miles from Land's End to the East End on the Children in Need

main show at around 9. 35pm. Let's give them one last final push.

Here's Elliott with how you can donate.

helping very small charities in a very big way. There it is for you.

Now all our riders have been given an extra challenge to tell people

why they are taking part in the Rickshaw Challenge this year. This

is the moment George D stepped up to the microphone. After that, we'll

catch up with Matt and the team. It's 8. 25 and you are with 5 Live

breakfast... I am in BBC broadcast house. I'm about to go to BBC Radio

5 Live to do my speech in front of quite a large audience for one of

the breakfast shows. I am nervous and excited for it. I think that if

I just focus on the fact that I'm speaking to a studio instead of

millions of people across the nation, I think I'll be able to make

it pretty good. Stand by. Gather round everyone. George, it's over to

you. Thank you very much. My name is George. I'm 17. I'm from Weybridge

in Surrey. Three years ago everything changed when my dad was

killed in a cycling accident. My dad went out for one of his regular bike

rides. However, this time, he didn't come home. He'd been knocked down by

a car. At first, I found it hard to believe he was dead. I remember

sitting alone and only thinking negative thoughts. Sometimes I would

text my dad's phone to let him know that I loved him and missed him. I

knew that there would be no reply, but I found it comforting. It has

been the hardest three years. One thing that has helped to make life

more positive was joining the Tommy D group. It's helped me come to

terms with what's happened and helped shape the way I think, act

and the way I am. Please donate if you can to help support young people

like me. My dad was my role model and the most inspiring and

intelligent person I'd ever known. I am riding the Rickshaw Challenge for

Children in Need, but I'm also riding for him. I know that my dad

will be proud. APPLAUSE

That was amazing. That's it, perfect. George, everybody at home,

I know we're walking down the road so you won't have seen that, we're

watching your speech there on the radio. Sum that up for us. I think

you had the biggest audience of everybody. I think Radio 5 Live was

6. 1 million people, something like that. I think it it was an amazing

experience. I had so much fun doing it. Beforehand I was so nervous. Of

course. Halfway through I got to point where I just sat back and

relaxed and smiled. I thought, hold on, this is so much fun. We're on

the final straight now. Team, come on over. We need to talk. You know,

goodness me, how do we sum up the week? It's virtually impossible.

Elliott, come forward. I need to ask, right, what is the secret

within this team, why do you think it's gelled so much? I think it's

gelled because we're all so different, but it works with each

other. It's amazing that we've all got something that has affected us

in our lives and is still affecting us, but it helps us to get along

with each other and understand each other's situations. Lucy, I know

that you are delighted, aren't you, to be riding the final leg. Listen,

if you think back, 476 miles ago. Yeah. What were you afraid of back

then and have you conquered it now? I have. I was afraid of what was

going to happen. I think I've conquered it because I know how to

do it now. What would you say to all those people, at the moment,

watching this, that haven't decided whether or not to donate yet.

Donate, definitely donate because your money could help someone like

me and the rest of the team too. I think it's a great thing to do. Get

and donate in now. Listen, I cannot say how proud - George, everybody, I

am so proud of everything that you have achieved over the last eight

days. It's been a privilege for me to cycle alongside you. Team

Rickshaw have done everything they possibly can and I know that they've

stolen your hearts. I know that they have captivated you over the past

week. And now, you know what, now it is your turn. It is your chance to

give this inspirational bunch the total that they deserve when they

walk out on that stage tonight. So, please, I'm asking you, from the

bottom of my heart, donate, because this, to me, is what Children in

Need is all about. They've been given an opportunity and they've

taken it. That's all from us for now. Join us on the stage for

Children in Need when hopefully they'll have a whopping tour. I'm

sure they will. Couldn't have put it better myself. Matt has been such a

wonderful and integral part of Rickshaw Challenge this year. I'm

here with the parents, who have had a very long week as well as the

riders themselves. Lisa, Erin's mum. From a parent's perspective, because

you've got to know each other, how has it been for you guys? A total,

emotional roller coaster for the whole family. One minute laughing

and smiling with them. Then you're in tears every time you see her on

the TV. You have to pinch yourself. We are crossing our fingers for that

big total. Sarah, we saw George do his speech earlier on. You must have

seen him grow into a young man over the course of the week. He's been

one of the strongest riders. He's tackled all the hills. It's very

poignant that he's riding the rickshaw as we heard. What changes

have you then, as a mother, seen in him this week? I've seen a really

determined young man, very brave and never giving up. Won't let anything

get him down. I'm sure your husband would have been hugely proud of him.

He'll be so proud of him, he'll be watching him. Over here to Michelle.

All the families here have benefitted from Children in Need.

What would you say to anybody who's watching tonight, who are in two

minds maybe about donating? Well, please dig deep. These young people

have really dug deep themselves. They've found inner strength when

it's been pouring with rain, when they've been going through pain. So,

please, just support the Rickshaw Challenge. They've done a fantastic

job. Absolutely. We go over to see Mark, the other George's dad over

here. We've been overwhelmed at the one show by the support of

everybody's who's lined the streets and donated. Have you got a lovely

message for people at home who have supported Team Rickshaw this year

more than ever before. I cannot express the gratitude. We are

totally overwhelmed, all of us as parents, totally overwhelmed.

George, I mean, just shouts down the phone, "I can't believe it, dad!

They're pushing money at me!" Yeah. Absolutely fantastic support. On

behalf of the one show we couldn't have done it without the help of you

parents as well to facilitate this, thank you very much. Making the

coffee and sandwiches here is Peter Andre, who was with us on launch

night. What would you like? An egg sandwich thanks. We've all been so

inspired by these young people, who've just done, you know, amazing

things this week and raised such a big total. What was your initial

feelings when you met them the first time?

It's just how passionate they are, how much they want to do this.

That's what's so touching. You see people digging deep and like this

gentleman said before, they are digging in deep soap we want people

out there to dig in deep because we have seen the kids do it themselves.

Well, we absolutely hope tonight that Children In Need will raise

millions and millions. Here is Harry Heal telling us what antics he's

going to get up to. -- Harry Hill. Without giving too much away, I'm

rehearsing for Children In Need. I'm taking the history of TV and

condensing it down into four minutes, using various cameo

appearances plus the theme tune is from what we consider the most

important TV shows ever to have been broadcast. BENNY HILL THEME. TV Burp

didn't make it in actually, so I will write a letter. People would be

surprised how little work... How much work, Surrey, goes into this...

This is something the BBC does so well. It has the infrastructure that

no other broadcaster has. Oh! I've just been handed a box with some

props in that will give us a clue what to expect on Children In Need

tonight. First of all, a top hat. I wonder what that could be, perhaps

something going on in the East End of London. A baby in a sequinned

dress. Can babies dance? Let's hope so! What's this? A torch... No, it's

a light sabre. I wonder what film that comes from. Is it ET, or...? A

leek, of course favoured by the Welsh, overlook, it is Rick Astley

and Suzanne Shaw. Which is better? Only one way to find out. At last!

Do you think I'm sexy? That's a clue.

Well, if I'm Elton John, this is Kiki Dee,, Warwick Davis and Shane

Ritchie. Warwick, nice to see you. It's been ages. Thank you. You are

on the show more readily than I am! You have worked with Harry Hill

before and Children In Need? Yes, it was fun, I got to play the piano

with sausages. Harry is observed with sausages! I hope it has been in

the fridge for a couple of years... I can't promise that, it has kind of

been out there, don't worry about it though. Now then, this is exciting,

Shane. Warwick has used his Jedi powers to get a Star Wars

exclusive. Later on we have but a Star Wars sketch coming up featuring

loads of a list celebrities. Martin Freeman is in there. Shane Ritchie?

Not Shane! Disney has joined forces with Lucasfilm and Children In Need

to make this happen. It is so special. Basically I'm on the quest

to find the ultimate Star Wars super fan who can go on stage live and

press the first totaliser moment. That is about 8:50pm. If I seem

slightly sweaty at the moment it is because myself and the cast of

EastEnders, we have just been rehearsing. Every year the

EastEnders cast try and do something special and this year we have got an

incredible dance routine. That's why I'm sweaty, I just been out

rehearsing it. From Tenby, we flipped over to BBC Two and we are

live in the Queen Vic with lots of special guests. -- from 10pm. Some

very special faces will be here. Make sure you join me then. Now

then, this is a very important announcement. Because, it's time to

launch the official Children In Need donation line for this year. If you

would like to donate, this is the number you will need.

Some standard geographic charges from landline and mobile apply. That

is the number if you want to donate tonight, it is that number that you

need. We're going to switch over here a minute because we have got

Laura, Jack Ashton and Peter Andre back in the pub. Fed up with coffee

and sandwiches, Peter? Well, I wanted to switch to this. Call the

Midwife do Strictly tonight. Peter as we have seen is a dab hand at the

whole Strictly thing. Pretend you are head judge Len. What sort of

picks and flicks would you be looking for from Jack and Laura's

performance? Honestly I'm the worst person to ask. I get so nervous

before I go on. It was absolutely terrifying! I was like, this is

Strictly and I'm trying to join in! You want to enjoy it but it is the

most terrifying... It goes so quickly. When it does happen, the

judges are nice and you just feel elated, don't you? When the judges

are nice, yes! Peter is a very good person to get tips from because you

achieved 38 out of 40 your Charleston. Couldn't believe it! It

was the highest score of the series so far, wasn't it? I remember saying

if nothing else happens, I'm going to cherish that moment forever. We

were just talking about it, he was amazing. What are you dancing this

week then? This week I'm dancing a Viennese waltz to a Cilla Black

song. Jeanette has been working hard? Jeanette committee is very

good at making you go over it and over it until you get it right. She

is fantastic. One of the people you're up against is the lovely

Helen George from The Midwife. We were just saying, you were just

praising Helen. She is terrific and you are terrific and it is a great

line-up. -- Call The Midwife. Do you think we could see Helen and Peter

in the final? That would make Ashton and Jeanette happy, because they are

engaged! You're going to be singing later on, which we're really looking

forward to. Did you know that I was a qualified bus driver? No. But it's

true, I am, and it's all in aid of Children In Need.

Here we are in Hyde Park. It is just gone 7am and all the other cars are

here for the vintage run. This is our lovely gorgeous past behind us

and today Chris and I are going all the way from here to Brighton, all

four Children In Need. Everyone on board has donated serious money to

be driven 60 miles. I complete amateurs! Now, Chris Evans is known

for many things but driving a bus isn't one of them. Crawley, it's the

halfway point and Chris has done his bit and now it's my turn. Well, I

think I know what I'm doing, steering wheel, basics. Clutch,

accelerator, starting button, horn. What more do you need? Ladies and

gentlemen, it is my turn, so hold on! Unfortunately, I don't get off

to the best of starts. My first corner and I'm stuck. No assisted

steering on this bus! But Peter is here to save the day.

CHEERING She did very well. Second career!

Well, we made it. Hundreds of people have come to Brighton and we have

made loads of money. Thank you for being so generous. If you need a bus

driver, you know who to call? We had a lovely day and thank you so

much to all the passengers who'd donated so generously. But thank you

to Richard and Martin who are over there in the other side of the pub.

Give us a wave. They gave their time so willingly as well to help us out

for Children In Need. Now then. There will be a brand-new duet

hitting the main stage later on. It is Nadine Coyle and Shane Filan. How

are you? Very good and much better than the 1 we just did their doing

karaoke! What are you to -- two singing tonight? We are singing my

new single. I Will Be. I'm such a massive van! You look so

sort of at home behind the bar? -- such a massive fan. Do you know your

way around the pipes here? You have a bar in LA. Normally I had to ask

people what is in that drink exactly, what kind of glass do you

want? But they are in safe hands. Shane,

you are on tour next year? I am, it is a tour all over the UK next

March. There is a load of beer, but people are taking them over

there... Looking forward to hearing your duet later on. Thanks for being

here, guys. Let's go and speak to the guys from Years Years. Hello!

I know you're very excited about being on Children In Need and on The

One Show. This is the best day of our lives, I think! He does say that

a lot! But it's true. It's Nadine Coyle and Peter Andre. What's the

best thing about the Children In Need experience so far? So far it

has definitely been this. I think when Warwick Davis came out there,

there was definitely the highlight. You are the UK's fastest selling

album... Are we? Very important! We have done something good this year

with our album, I think. I don't know what the statistic is. What are

you performing on the show tonight? We are doing our new single called

Eyes Shut. Ollie, you were an actor but you gave it all up to join the

band, where would we have seen you before? I once did a show with the

actress who played Christie in EastEnders, that is my claim to

fame. That is the Final Countdown in the background! Who is on the mic?

That is Peter Andre and friends. My thanks to all our guests tonight.

Get well soon to Terry. Enjoy the rest of Children In Need. Tom Daley

will be our guest. Have a great weekend.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, get ready

for the biggest night of the year.
