Hello, friends, and welcome to your Friday. Just pull out a bit, Camara,

:00:18.:00:26.

a bit wider, wider. Wider. Keep going. Welcome to your Friday one

:00:27.:00:35.

Christmas card show. We have got... Tonight, we are celebrating the joys

:00:36.:00:42.

of Knitmas. Happy Knitmas, everyone, it is National Christmas Jumper Day.

:00:43.:00:46.

His jumper flashes. She is squeaking. SQUEAKING. This morning

:00:47.:00:59.

hundreds of participants tried to break the record for the most people

:01:00.:01:03.

dancing in Christmas jumpers in aid of save the children. We have got

:01:04.:01:07.

our jumpers on and we are meeting festive knitting superstars. High to

:01:08.:01:14.

the knitting people. Hi, Chris, high, Alex. High, -- happy Knitmas.

:01:15.:01:21.

Our guest is an actor who has knitted his whole face for his

:01:22.:01:26.

latest role in The Hobbit. Come on in, Jimmy. Jimmy Nesbitt is here.

:01:27.:01:34.

APPLAUSE Value. That is your dwarf face,

:01:35.:01:45.

Jimmy. What made you pull this face? That was yesterday at Huntingdon

:01:46.:01:47.

racecourse, when my horse Riverside Theatre, named after a theatre

:01:48.:01:56.

northern Ireland, he made a return to racing after being injured with

:01:57.:02:00.

bad ulcers and operation and we did not know what to expect but he won

:02:01.:02:04.

the pita bread chase. Congratulations. It sounded like you

:02:05.:02:12.

are hosting the horse race. Very impressive. What made you pull this

:02:13.:02:20.

face? That was, I always do that! That was in a documentary I have got

:02:21.:02:27.

on ITV on Christmas Day about my New Zealand travel adventure. Looking

:02:28.:02:32.

forward to more Kiwi and Hobbit talking a bit with James Nesbitt. We

:02:33.:02:36.

will also get the secrets behind a three bird roast dinner from master

:02:37.:02:41.

butcher Nigel Lewis. He has a Hobbit there with him! It is all right, OK,

:02:42.:02:51.

this time last week we saw the dramatic pictures captured by One

:02:52.:02:55.

Show cameras of homes breaking up and falling into the sea on the

:02:56.:02:57.

Norfolk coast. David Whiteley has been following the story all week. A

:02:58.:03:03.

week ago it was the plight of Jackie and Steve Connolly that made the

:03:04.:03:06.

headlines when their house was destroyed. Don't get too close, it

:03:07.:03:12.

will be unstable. It has gone. What will we do now? Before the house

:03:13.:03:19.

went over the edge, villagers formed a human chain and rallied to save

:03:20.:03:25.

what they could. We haven't got time to make decisions. Another house

:03:26.:03:28.

went straight over the edge that night and was washed away.

:03:29.:03:36.

In all, five homes in Hemsby were lost in the storm. Pictures of these

:03:37.:03:44.

houses have been seen by people all around the world. What most people

:03:45.:03:47.

probably don't know is that the sand dune actually came to hear, almost

:03:48.:03:52.

30 feet of sand and what is worrying is that more is predicted to go.

:03:53.:03:58.

Many other houses are now real risk of suffering is the same fate. Some

:03:59.:04:02.

residents are worried for their future. What is it like living

:04:03.:04:07.

around here? Scary. It is really frightening. You go to work in the

:04:08.:04:10.

morning and don't want to come home at night. It is frightening to come

:04:11.:04:15.

home. Every night before I go to bed I get my torch out to see if the

:04:16.:04:20.

dunes are still there. On the night of the storm the villagers were busy

:04:21.:04:24.

raising funds to build their own sea defences. They have raised more than

:04:25.:04:29.

?20,000 and all this week they have been busy building barriers. But

:04:30.:04:33.

despite the storm surge the local council says it is still going to

:04:34.:04:37.

wait and see how these defences work before it gives any money to Hemsby.

:04:38.:04:45.

It has been just over a week yet you are carrying on putting down your

:04:46.:04:48.

own sea defences. Is there any point? We are more determined than

:04:49.:04:53.

ever to protect our coastline. It was a one in 60 years surge, a freak

:04:54.:04:58.

one, we could not do much about it. We can do something about general

:04:59.:05:02.

erosion. Several houses are at risk and we need to protect our future. I

:05:03.:05:06.

know you have had support from local people but since the film went out

:05:07.:05:11.

on The One Show a stack of e-mails came in from people who wanted to

:05:12.:05:16.

help and make donations. Fantastic, we have websites, save Hemsby

:05:17.:05:21.

coastline .co .uk, lots of information on there and it is nice

:05:22.:05:24.

to get these lovely comments. After losing their home Jackie and Steve

:05:25.:05:28.

have been living at this holiday Park in Hemsby. It was shut but the

:05:29.:05:32.

owner has reopened it especially for them. High. You never thought you

:05:33.:05:37.

would end up here in this chalet. What is it like being here? It is OK

:05:38.:05:43.

but it is not home. What do you think this says about the people of

:05:44.:05:50.

Hemsby as a community? They all come together, especially that night when

:05:51.:05:54.

it actually happened, they all came together and formed a chain.

:05:55.:06:00.

Everybody has been amazing. Once again, we wish all the best to

:06:01.:06:05.

all those affected by those exceptional circumstances last week.

:06:06.:06:09.

You were in New Zealand for two years making The Hobbit. This drags

:06:10.:06:14.

you into something else which will be on Christmas Day on ITV? I talked

:06:15.:06:19.

enthusiastically about New Zealand, a wonderful, beautiful country with

:06:20.:06:24.

a fantastic culture, great people, great outdoors life. A TV production

:06:25.:06:30.

company said, would you do a documentary about it? I went to

:06:31.:06:36.

places in the North and South Islands and do a whole array of

:06:37.:06:40.

things. It is beautiful. You read loads of interesting people during

:06:41.:06:43.

the documentary but we particularly liked Billy Black, the sheep farmer.

:06:44.:06:49.

He is an amazing guy, he does two great things. This is the first one

:06:50.:06:53.

he does. Pick her up, one, two, three, relax. Right. What is going

:06:54.:07:06.

on there? He hypnotises sheep! He is a rather extraordinary person. I

:07:07.:07:11.

would say longer than a weekend with Billy might be tricky. He is quite

:07:12.:07:17.

mad. It makes it much easier to share the sheep and he has a gift

:07:18.:07:21.

with them and has spent a lifetime with them. He promotes walls. Walt

:07:22.:07:27.

is not as much -- not as much will is being produced and he once to

:07:28.:07:30.

bring it back, not only in New Zealand but throughout the world.

:07:31.:07:34.

Hold that thought because he also does this. Yes. Hold still. Tell us

:07:35.:07:44.

what is going on here? It is something we thought we would try!

:07:45.:07:54.

Will does not -- will is not flammable. You can hold a blowtorch

:07:55.:08:07.

to it. -- wool. Kids, don't try that at home. Wool can keep you cool and

:08:08.:08:15.

warm? It does, it reacts to your own body temperature. I don't know if it

:08:16.:08:20.

actually knows but you can have in extreme cold, wool will keep you

:08:21.:08:24.

warm but it will keep you cool in heat. Your research notes caused a

:08:25.:08:32.

row in Alex's house over breakfast. You are courting a Kiwi. You go to a

:08:33.:08:37.

competition for the best Kiwi girlfriend? Not personally! What are

:08:38.:08:44.

the criteria to win the competition? Quite different to what you might

:08:45.:08:50.

expect. They have to be quite active. They do different stunts. It

:08:51.:08:57.

is not just about the Kiwis. You must be good at playing pool,

:08:58.:09:02.

drinking beer, skinning rabbits and is something alts, all the things I

:09:03.:09:08.

am useless at. The chainsaw of the beer bottle tops. They are fantastic

:09:09.:09:15.

goals. Rub it in! Dig a hole massively! She was going foreign

:09:16.:09:19.

engagement in 2014, for heavens sake. That is on Christmas Day 2pm

:09:20.:09:28.

but a big day for Hobbit fans, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug was

:09:29.:09:33.

released. Let's see a bit of Bofur. What do we do now? Hold your breath.

:09:34.:09:36.

Hold my breath! Music macro MUSIC

:09:37.:09:57.

Did you do your own stunts? People thought it was all CGI but

:09:58.:10:01.

because they have so much money they can afford to build incredible sets

:10:02.:10:05.

and we did do a lot of that sequence, it is a really exciting

:10:06.:10:11.

sequence in the film. We did it in our own barrels going down the river

:10:12.:10:15.

in the North Island and that is great, it is not just agrees to

:10:16.:10:19.

green screen commute you do the real thing. We know your character Bofur

:10:20.:10:26.

loves cheese. We have a game for Jimmy now. You can play at home. The

:10:27.:10:32.

book of The Hobbit is filmed -- filled with weird names and Jimmy's

:10:33.:10:36.

character loves cheese, so we call this game Hobbit or to. We will give

:10:37.:10:40.

you three names and you have to decide whether they are names of

:10:41.:10:46.

Hobbit characters or cheeses. If you win, if you are successful, you get

:10:47.:10:50.

to keep the cheese for Christmas. OK. The first one, Gorbadoc, Hobbit

:10:51.:11:00.

or Cheese? What do you think? Cheese. It is actually a Hobbit! Oh

:11:01.:11:15.

dear. The grandfather. The next one, Adelegger Urberger. Cheese. It is a

:11:16.:11:26.

cheese. Cows milk cheese. Number three, Largo, Hobbit or Cheese? La

:11:27.:11:35.

go. I mean, are you sure? I am going to go with Hobbit. It is actually a

:11:36.:11:42.

Hobbit and cheese. A bit unfair on the contestant there. Largo bargains

:11:43.:11:50.

and the cheese, Largo cheese, this cheese is soft, nutty and smooth on

:11:51.:11:58.

the tongue with mushroom notes. That is the last game of Hobbit and

:11:59.:12:04.

cheese! A sad moment. Prince Harry and his team finished their 200 mile

:12:05.:12:07.

Antarctic trek today but you might not know that his Gran once had a

:12:08.:12:13.

snowy adventure all of her own. Not to the South Pole but a small hotel

:12:14.:12:19.

on the A46. I wondered if they had any Bombay mix. Here is Gyles

:12:20.:12:28.

Brandreth with the whole story. In December 1981, Britain suffered

:12:29.:12:30.

one of its worst snowstorms ever recorded. Large parts of the country

:12:31.:12:36.

was snowbound for three weeks with temperatures of -13 Celsius. As

:12:37.:12:41.

people across the country struggled to get home, this pub in old Sodbury

:12:42.:12:49.

in Gloucestershire had more than 100 desperate travellers seeking refuge

:12:50.:12:54.

from the heavy snow. Roberto owned the pub in the 1980s and remembered

:12:55.:12:59.

that night as chaotic. It was very, very cold. A lot of snow. There was

:13:00.:13:07.

no possibility of having people in here. And suddenly you had

:13:08.:13:11.

customers? The only place they could stop was here because they could not

:13:12.:13:16.

go further. A vehicle pulled into the car park with someone else

:13:17.:13:19.

seeking shelter. The gentleman approached me and said, "excuse me,

:13:20.:13:28.

who is in charge?" He said, " her Majesty the Queen is in the car. "

:13:29.:13:35.

The Queen was on her way to Windsor Castle from Gloucestershire. As was

:13:36.:13:37.

the case for most travellers that night the Queen was struggling to

:13:38.:13:43.

make it home. This old poster from the 14th century was the first-ever

:13:44.:13:48.

private residence without prior notice to accommodate the Queen. For

:13:49.:13:54.

Roberto the first challenge was to get her Majesty, Queen of Great

:13:55.:13:57.

Britain and Northern Ireland and other realms and territories, up to

:13:58.:14:02.

her room without being noticed. You brought the Queen here? This is the

:14:03.:14:06.

only place we could get inside the hotel without anybody seeing her. I

:14:07.:14:12.

went up first, her Majesty behind and others behind her. Did she tip

:14:13.:14:17.

you when you got to the door? oh, no, I would not take it. And this is

:14:18.:14:22.

the hotel room where the Queen state. It looks a bit different now.

:14:23.:14:27.

Only the bathroom remains unchanged. Downstairs fellow

:14:28.:14:30.

travellers were tucking into their dinner oblivious of the fact that

:14:31.:14:33.

upstairs fellow royal guest was hidden in here. Eve pollard has been

:14:34.:14:41.

a royal watcher for 40 years. She remembers hearing about the Queen's

:14:42.:14:45.

unusual night. Does the Queen of a stay at a place like this? Mrs

:14:46.:14:50.

Lawton -- nothing like the Queen would normally stay out. Even in the

:14:51.:14:54.

21st century there is a royal progress. When the Queen goes to

:14:55.:14:58.

visit friends and relations she stays at the grandest houses in

:14:59.:15:04.

Britain. This was a big story? It is the stories of dream and fantasy.

:15:05.:15:09.

Roberto had accomplished his mission to accommodate the Queen discreetly

:15:10.:15:13.

in a ?27.80 twin room. He headed down to attend to the rest of the

:15:14.:15:17.

travellers but soon received a royal command. She would like to have a

:15:18.:15:22.

place where she could make phone calls. The only place she could make

:15:23.:15:27.

up like a phone call is my flat. You left her in peace to make a call and

:15:28.:15:31.

what happened? She ordered something. What did she order? A gin

:15:32.:15:38.

and tonic. For Roberto the evening was about to get even more surreal.

:15:39.:15:43.

The bell rang again. He found himself face-to-face with racing

:15:44.:15:47.

driver Jackie Stewart and this time, Princess Ann. They had turned up to

:15:48.:15:51.

visit her mother. You take them at the same fire is dope, you come down

:15:52.:15:55.

to mix the drinks. This is faulty Towers! Not quite, not quite. What

:15:56.:16:01.

was your assistant manager called? Manuel! Exactly. 10:45pm the roads

:16:02.:16:08.

were cleared and after spending seven hours at the Cross hands, the

:16:09.:16:18.

Queen left for Windsor. Did you ever hear again from the Queen? This came

:16:19.:16:25.

from Buckingham Palace. Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year. It

:16:26.:16:30.

was incredible, to have Her Majesty to stay in the hotel. I won't forget

:16:31.:16:37.

it, it is stuck in my mind for the rest of my life. And so unusual was

:16:38.:16:42.

the event that the Queen herself will probably never forget the time

:16:43.:16:46.

she accepted hospitality here at the Cross Hands public house.

:16:47.:16:53.

Here to prepare a Christmas roast fit for a Queen is a butcher whose

:16:54.:16:59.

produce has graced many a royal table, Nigel Lewis. Nigel is going

:17:00.:17:07.

to show us something that is big news in many supermarkets, the bird

:17:08.:17:10.

in a bed in a bird, the multi-bird roast. Instead of a ready-made

:17:11.:17:15.

version, Nigel is going to show us how to do it. I have taken all the

:17:16.:17:20.

skin off, because you cannot put skin inside skin. We have got free

:17:21.:17:29.

range turkey, duck and pheasant. You have got two versions, lead and

:17:30.:17:33.

breast. They cook at different rates, and a lot of people do not

:17:34.:17:42.

like leg meat. Is this the limit? You can go up to six. What other

:17:43.:17:50.

birds are there? Goose, Partridge. You have stuffed it with a good lump

:17:51.:17:55.

of something. Our famous, free range pork sausage meat, with some fresh

:17:56.:18:00.

onion and herbs. This is all very impressive. What about these? These

:18:01.:18:06.

these special knots? They are, it is like a slipknot, years of practice,

:18:07.:18:12.

really. And presumably this is going to be quite heavy, what would be the

:18:13.:18:18.

cooking time? It is going to weigh about 60 lows, this is quite large,

:18:19.:18:22.

and one I cooked earlier was for three hours. -- six kilos. On the

:18:23.:18:30.

bone, about half an hour per kilo. Are you a multi-bird man? James? It

:18:31.:18:39.

was all going so well! You know what I mean! I have got two daughters! We

:18:40.:18:50.

were talking before, you are cooking at Christmas, and you? No, I am

:18:51.:18:56.

not, my brother-in-law Benjamin is a sensational cook, he is cooking.

:18:57.:19:03.

Nearly done. Done. Cook it with the string and everything? Yes, and then

:19:04.:19:08.

it comes out like that. This is my assistant, my right-hand man in the

:19:09.:19:17.

shop. Does he have a name? Paul! What is going on here? Can you give

:19:18.:19:27.

us tips for carving? Let it rest, take the strain off and then slice

:19:28.:19:32.

it through, but the key is to rest. Secreted Blade? I used a serrated

:19:33.:19:42.

one, but smooth also raided. I used one yesterday, you have got to be

:19:43.:19:47.

careful. Pretty impressive stuff, come on! Now, from a top but you and

:19:48.:19:54.

his little pal Paul, thank you, who has got a name, let's have a look at

:19:55.:20:00.

some of the runners and riders. From the traditional...

:20:01.:20:09.

Good eating! To the not so traditional...

:20:10.:20:18.

As four London Lions discovered, if you want to top the Christmas

:20:19.:20:34.

charts, stick some bells on! -- lads.

:20:35.:20:43.

Stay Another Day was written by Tony Mortimer of boy band East 17, who

:20:44.:20:46.

had already had eight chart hits when this became their first number

:20:47.:20:51.

one in December 1984. But it was written on a summer day in August

:20:52.:20:56.

here in Walthamstow, without a single mention of Christmas, peace

:20:57.:21:00.

honours or mistletoe, although there are a few bells thrown in the mix.

:21:01.:21:05.

-- peace on earth. This is where the band all grew up. Were the other

:21:06.:21:11.

guys in this area, to? Yes, Terry lived in that road, Brian was a bit

:21:12.:21:15.

further up, and on the next road was John, so we was all really close. So

:21:16.:21:21.

you were friends. We were not put together at all, we would have had

:21:22.:21:25.

better people in the band! I probably wouldn't have made it if we

:21:26.:21:32.

was put together! The name came from the postcode of the area, East 17,

:21:33.:21:36.

and I wanted to create an urban act, the equivalent of New Kids On The

:21:37.:21:42.

Block. We thought we could do it, well, we knew we could do it. As a

:21:43.:21:48.

highly ambitious teenager, Tony was inspired by a former East End

:21:49.:21:53.

residents, designer and artist William Morris. He was born in

:21:54.:21:57.

Walthamstow and didn't do too badly for himself. He came from a

:21:58.:22:00.

background, a middle-class background, but issues to be like

:22:01.:22:05.

going into another world. I daydreamed, it was like going back

:22:06.:22:10.

in time. That doesn't sound a normal thing for an East 17 cheered to be

:22:11.:22:17.

doing. You need to daydreamed to be creative. With the release of their

:22:18.:22:24.

first album, called Walthamstow, East 17 became hugely successful

:22:25.:22:28.

with the teen market and established a much publicised rivalry with Take

:22:29.:22:34.

That. It was not overnight, but from because of the year, it was picked

:22:35.:22:39.

up in the morning to absolute mayhem, people banging on the vans

:22:40.:22:44.

and all that. Taking advantage of all the mania, Tony was ordered to

:22:45.:22:49.

come up with a second album. Writing quickly and under pressure, he

:22:50.:22:53.

composed a ballad with a personal theme. It is based primarily on my

:22:54.:22:58.

brother, who committed suicide when I was a lad.

:22:59.:23:04.

# Baby, if you've got to go away. # I don't think I can take the pain.

:23:05.:23:09.

It was just based on that, and it would be very depressing, but I

:23:10.:23:13.

wanted to turn it into a love song, so it had a couple of meanings. What

:23:14.:23:19.

did your parents think? They think it is beautiful. Obviously, the

:23:20.:23:22.

whole thing is upsetting for them, but it is a beautiful song, it is a

:23:23.:23:26.

lovely theme to have, and for that song to be accepted by the public.

:23:27.:23:31.

Quite a vulnerable subject, were you comfortable with that? No, not

:23:32.:23:37.

really, no. It is a strong thing to draw on. When art is that truthful,

:23:38.:23:43.

I think you are offering such a truthful sorry to people, you are

:23:44.:23:46.

seeing it in the song, people relate to it. Released in November 1984, it

:23:47.:23:53.

spent five weeks at number one and was a hit all over Europe. It also

:23:54.:23:59.

won Tony and Ivor Novello award for songwriting. As an artist and a

:24:00.:24:04.

writer, it was a massive moment for me. Can I say that people took me

:24:05.:24:08.

seriously as a songwriter? I think people did, it is a lovely accolades

:24:09.:24:14.

to have. It was a great, life changing song. It's changed

:24:15.:24:17.

everything. We have got our own baby Jesus

:24:18.:24:29.

here! Seriously! It is Christmas jumper day, and we have got some

:24:30.:24:34.

extreme knitters here, the ladies in blue are the Knutty Knitters from

:24:35.:24:38.

Bristol, welcome, ladies. You have knitted this incredible knitivity,

:24:39.:24:45.

haven't you? Very good, I like that, knitivity! Where did the idea

:24:46.:24:50.

come from? I have to say that I copied somebody else's idea, but

:24:51.:24:55.

there's was a lot smaller. We have done it because one of our group,

:24:56.:24:59.

Christine, passed away at Christmas two years ago, and we wanted to do

:25:00.:25:06.

something to raise funds for Saint Peter's Hospice in Bristol, who

:25:07.:25:09.

looked after her in her last days. They did a fantastic job, it is a

:25:10.:25:15.

wonderful place, and we take the knitivity around Bristol on tour,

:25:16.:25:21.

raising money. How long did it take? It took about one year, nine months

:25:22.:25:25.

for the main tableau, and then we have added the Angel, the camel and

:25:26.:25:29.

the donkey. So three more months. We have to say, quickly, happy birthday

:25:30.:25:35.

to Alison as well! We have more knitters here, wishing you happy

:25:36.:25:40.

Knitmas, you are leading the charge for the family that sheep fear! Tell

:25:41.:25:45.

us what is going on with you. Well, I started knitting just making a

:25:46.:25:51.

Christmas card for the family, and then it snowballed from there,

:25:52.:25:56.

everybody wanted a jumper, and I have made 28 now! And all these

:25:57.:26:00.

people are members of your family, and we have the new one, Freddie,

:26:01.:26:05.

two weeks old! You were quite surprised by the publicity, wind

:26:06.:26:10.

you? Yes, when I heard that my Nan was going to be on page three, I did

:26:11.:26:16.

worry! Luckily, it was the Express. Not only have unit for all the

:26:17.:26:20.

members of the family, but you are going to welcome James your family!

:26:21.:26:30.

This James?! Look! Oh, my goodness! How lovely! We have got a baby here!

:26:31.:26:43.

He's not knitted, he's a real baby. Everybody knows that Santa only

:26:44.:26:45.

gives presents to good little boys and girls, and this year he has a

:26:46.:26:49.

new way to find out who has been naughty and nice. Some shopping

:26:50.:26:54.

centres are giving children lie detector tests before they get into

:26:55.:26:58.

:26:59.:27:06.

This is my light detector machine, do you love Christmas? Yes. Have you

:27:07.:27:13.

been a good boy? Yes. Are you telling the truth? No! Is there

:27:14.:27:18.

something you would like to tell me? No! Money is over there telling me

:27:19.:27:29.

that you have not... I have been cleaning the front room! I was doing

:27:30.:27:34.

it while she was texting on her phone. Oh, I see! I ate chocolate in

:27:35.:27:46.

bed. And the chocolate has all gone? She still has a secret stash hidden

:27:47.:27:50.

away. Is there anything you have done this year that has been a bit

:27:51.:27:56.

naughty? No... Nothing at all? Nothing at all! The machine is

:27:57.:28:09.

checking on me? It is a bit broken. So why am I wearing the hat? Have a

:28:10.:28:16.

lovely Christmas and make sure you are nice and then you will get a

:28:17.:28:21.
