Welcome to the One Show. We're hoping to join up with Matt later

:00:27.:00:37.
:00:37.:00:38.

on. We're racing desperately racing for York. We have got traffic

:00:38.:00:43.

trouble. We know we have that ahead of us. We don't know whroo we'll

:00:43.:00:49.

make the deadline of the show. One way or another we'll talk to him

:00:49.:00:54.

later. First, let's meet tonight's guest. His dad was a football

:00:54.:01:00.

manager and desperately wanted his son to follow in his sporty

:01:00.:01:07.

footsteps. Something tells me it wasn't likely to happen. Alan Carr!

:01:07.:01:13.

Thank you. On your chat show you welcome guests and get out the

:01:13.:01:23.
:01:23.:01:25.

drinks cabinet. What were you drinking last night? Was it creme

:01:25.:01:34.

de menthe. No, it was a chow-ice drink melt with vodka. When I came

:01:34.:01:44.
:01:44.:01:53.

on your show I had sherry and Look at it! Do you recognise it.

:01:53.:01:59.

We're respectful here. We have had to replace all the alcohol. With a

:01:59.:02:09.
:02:09.:02:10.

nice cup of tea and biscuits. Is it proper tea? Is - is it proper

:02:10.:02:18.

tea? It is warm. Sip your tea. You have a pink wafer too. It's been a

:02:18.:02:23.

very difficult time for Matt on his Children In Need challenge. Last

:02:23.:02:30.

Friday we saw him arrive in the Scottish borders. It was made much

:02:30.:02:35.

easier for your boy by so many of you turning out. Thank you so much

:02:35.:02:44.

for all of those who have donated already. For all of you who have

:02:44.:02:50.

sent cheques. Over the week you have sent in all of these. That is

:02:50.:02:57.

staggering, but we still need more. The address for cheques, is later

:02:57.:03:07.
:03:07.:03:13.

Before we find out whether Matt has made it to York, here is how he got

:03:13.:03:23.
:03:23.:03:25.

on. He left Hock at 6am on Saturday, cheered on by the locals. As he

:03:25.:03:29.

crossed the border into England all was going well and he was in good

:03:29.:03:39.
:03:39.:03:41.

spirits. Really on down to London! On arrival in Wrexham hundreds

:03:41.:03:47.

turned out to support him, after what it been a great day. But as he

:03:47.:03:51.

left on Sunday morning, the reality of the day ahead began to sink in.

:03:52.:03:57.

We have talked about this day in preparation, always knew it would

:03:57.:04:02.

be tough. Misty rain, Pudsey in the back. Uphill... A wonderful

:04:02.:04:08.

cocktail for 6.00 in the morning. He made a good start as he greeted

:04:08.:04:14.

supporters along the way and picked up more passengers, including a

:04:14.:04:21.

little bear... A mini Pudsey on board. Can you come all the way to

:04:21.:04:29.

London? No! County Durham, home sweet home... His family were there

:04:30.:04:39.
:04:40.:04:40.

to greet him. Tremendous achievement. We're produced of him.

:04:40.:04:47.

Emotional about it, the way people are supporting him. I've got me dad

:04:47.:04:53.

in the back. Leaving his family behind, Matt's attention turned to

:04:53.:05:00.

the biggest challenge - a series of hills that peak after a massive 511

:05:00.:05:05.

metre climb. There were problems from the start. It's slipping.

:05:05.:05:12.

crew member helped by pushing the rickshaw down to try and get some

:05:12.:05:17.

grip. Just ten minutes into the epic climb it was clear it's going

:05:17.:05:27.
:05:27.:05:37.

to be tough. Come on Matt! But the crowds helped to drive him on... A

:05:37.:05:42.

couple of miles in one of Matt's old childhood friends popped along

:05:42.:05:47.

too, which gave him a chance to reflect on difficulties he faced.

:05:47.:05:55.

One minute I was happy and the next I was hanging over the bars in

:05:55.:06:04.

proved tougher than anyone thought. I'm having treatment and so is the

:06:04.:06:10.

rickshaw. As darkness fell, Matt continued his climb. I'm about 200

:06:10.:06:20.

turns away from the highest point in the whole route... After three

:06:20.:06:25.

exhausting hours, he finally made it to the top after cheers from the

:06:25.:06:32.

waiting crowd. The money we've raised. Well done! Cheers, how long

:06:32.:06:40.

have you been waiting for me? an hour at least. It's been

:06:40.:06:46.

brilliant. But it wasn't over. Matt still had another grueling 12 miles

:06:46.:06:56.
:06:56.:07:01.

until the finishing line. So 162 miles down and another 322 to go.

:07:01.:07:08.

Incredible. That hill, I thought it was going to break him. I nearly

:07:08.:07:13.

cried putting the voice over on the film. We have heard he's about to

:07:13.:07:20.

finish for the day. I can hear you, I don't know if you can hear me.

:07:20.:07:27.

I'm rolling down the cobbles, with Pudsey and a cameraman on board.

:07:27.:07:35.

You're doing so well. How are you coping? I know I said on Friday I

:07:35.:07:42.

could not believe I'm here. I really can't this time.

:07:42.:07:49.

Unbelievable scenes in York! Bumping over the cobbles. We have

:07:49.:07:58.

70.3 miles. And about an hour or so away I really didn't think we would

:07:58.:08:05.

make it. It has been a complete and utter nightmare. I'm here, and I'm

:08:05.:08:11.

shattered. I'm still smiling. I have to keep looking at the funny

:08:11.:08:16.

side. This challenge is utterly ridiculous. Everywhere I go people

:08:16.:08:24.

are lining the streets. It's just incredible. This challenge has

:08:24.:08:28.

changed today. The last three days was trying to battle against the

:08:28.:08:34.

landscape and get up the hills and keep the pedals turning. Today it

:08:34.:08:40.

turned into getting the miles underneath. I need to stop talking,

:08:40.:08:45.

I'm shattered. Look for yourself and see what happened this morning.

:08:45.:08:50.

Okay. He's doing an incredible job. We'll see what short of - sort of

:08:50.:09:00.
:09:00.:09:01.

day he has had later on. He is suffering badly from saddle sores.

:09:01.:09:08.

Alan... What are you implying? You're a keen cyclist. I am. I'm

:09:08.:09:18.
:09:18.:09:20.

often saddle sore. What is needed. Chub-rub. You put it here and you

:09:20.:09:27.

lubricate the saddle. You do it here. I had to cut the top of me

:09:27.:09:35.

waders off. They were rubbing. All down here. Chub rub. Then I started

:09:35.:09:43.

having to sit side saddle. Remember the district nurse. It's true. Put

:09:43.:09:48.

chub rub in your basket. I'm not being rude to Matt. I thought he

:09:48.:09:58.

would go faster. I'm not being ungrateful. I could mince quicker.

:09:58.:10:05.

We'll give you a chance for advice later on. A great job. Get a bit

:10:05.:10:13.

faster. An emergency by law had to be used to close all the cockle

:10:13.:10:20.

beds in a river bed in Lancashire. The closure could have a disastrous

:10:20.:10:26.

effect for traditional fishermen who have been relying on the income

:10:26.:10:35.

from cock little. There was a time if you brought a buck ket and spade

:10:35.:10:44.

to the keech you were coming only to made - make sand castles. But

:10:44.:10:52.

here it's to make money. The cockle bed has been the scene of danger,

:10:52.:11:01.

drama and disagreement. That's because it's estimated there are �8

:11:01.:11:10.

million worth of cockles here. It has attracted hundreds of amateur

:11:10.:11:19.

cocklers. Inexperienced sailors, and trech douse tides meant that

:11:19.:11:28.

the RNLI lifeboats have been called out 26 times. Each time the all-

:11:28.:11:33.

weather boat, it's �4,000 it's a lot of money. You must look at

:11:33.:11:39.

these people and think it - you must be mad for risking your lives.

:11:39.:11:45.

We're not prejudiced who we pick up. We get called me go. If it was me,

:11:45.:11:53.

I would not go out there. Last week the beds were completely closed.

:11:53.:12:03.

They think it's the best way to deter novice fishermen. It's not

:12:03.:12:08.

the experienced fishermen we worry about. We need to close the beds

:12:08.:12:17.

until we get a better handling it. Why weren't you out there stopping

:12:17.:12:23.

the dangerous cocklers? We're out there but not enough. I have only

:12:23.:12:33.
:12:33.:12:37.

ten people for the whole of north of England. If you have a

:12:37.:12:41.

regulatory authority with hundreds of miles of coast to police, and

:12:41.:12:49.

only a handful of staff. Closing the beds, has to be a good idea?

:12:49.:12:55.

What about the people who harvest these for a living? Cockle beds

:12:55.:13:02.

move with the tides. People have to follow them. These two fishermen

:13:02.:13:09.

have been cockling for 22 years. have worked for years hoping for

:13:09.:13:12.

something like this to appear for us. We have travelled all around

:13:12.:13:17.

the country, looking, and spending and time and money. Now it's here

:13:17.:13:24.

it will be taken away from us. does the closure mean for you? This

:13:24.:13:28.

is your livelihood. Lot of people have to go back to be unemployed. I

:13:29.:13:33.

haven't been unemployed for a long time. People are breaking the law?

:13:33.:13:40.

Is it their fault. I blame it down to the fisheries for not being able

:13:40.:13:44.

to fisheries. It's not the fisheries' fault. It's that people

:13:44.:13:48.

are prepared to break the law. happened in Scotland and it's

:13:48.:13:58.

worked. It has proven the fact. Ever since the Morecambe Bay

:13:58.:14:06.

disaster in 2004 when 23 Chinese cocklers were killed, fishermen

:14:06.:14:16.
:14:16.:14:18.

have been calling for licensing. want to see by laws so they can

:14:18.:14:23.

enforce at the point of access on the beach as opposed to several

:14:23.:14:27.

miles out. If you are going on to the beach with a boat and you

:14:27.:14:32.

haven't a permit you should not be there. We want to see those people

:14:32.:14:37.

prevented. We want to see the legitimate fishermen is doing the

:14:37.:14:43.

right thing and they don't lose their livelihood. The fisheries

:14:43.:14:49.

have caught people risking their lives and breaking the ban. More

:14:49.:14:54.

action is needed to bring the industry into the 21st century.

:14:54.:14:59.

They have had plenty of time since the Chinese died to put this

:14:59.:15:08.

together. It hasn't been done. Simon we do have a dream guest. In

:15:08.:15:15.

Alan's life. Not only a keen cyclist but a keen cockle picker.

:15:15.:15:25.
:15:25.:15:28.

Comedy wasn't working out? I used to go with me granddad. We have a

:15:28.:15:31.

picture! That is me granddad Wilf. And we would often go cockle

:15:31.:15:36.

picking. Help yourself. There's plenty there. When Alan went cockle

:15:36.:15:41.

picking, people can do that, they can get a certain amount for

:15:41.:15:51.
:15:51.:15:54.

themselves, it wasn't illegal. Watchdog are going to come in!.

:15:54.:15:58.

can take a small amount for personal use, as long as you're not

:15:58.:16:06.

selling them on. I didn't sell them on. In the film we refer to five

:16:06.:16:14.

kilograms. That's for the north west. If you use half a bucket in

:16:14.:16:19.

the future, it's incredibly dangerous. You only get the cockles

:16:20.:16:26.

at low tide. Some can be a couple of miles from shore, if you are

:16:26.:16:30.

going out without the right equipment and life jakets, it can

:16:30.:16:38.

be incredibly dangerous. The tide can catch you unawares. You need to

:16:38.:16:44.

know the local timetables and all the things that can affect you.

:16:44.:16:49.

People are going out with inflatable boats, it might get you

:16:49.:16:53.

there, and fill it with cockles and it may not come back. And some

:16:53.:17:01.

people do it in the dark. There was once a time whether only an accent

:17:01.:17:07.

spoken on the BBC was a bit posh. Luckily for you and me and Alan

:17:07.:17:13.

they relaxed the rules. What happened to the Queen's English?

:17:13.:17:23.
:17:23.:17:23.

Gyles Brandreth went to find out. I'm proud to have inspected you

:17:23.:17:30.

today... The Queen's English. There's nothing quite like it.

:17:30.:17:37.

Literally because even the Queen doesn't speak the Queen's English

:17:37.:17:45.

any more. Of course she does still sound thoroughly regal.

:17:45.:17:52.

government's legislative programmes will be based on the principles...

:17:52.:17:59.

Her Majesty's cut glass accent has mellowed over the years. Modern

:17:59.:18:07.

communication, and immigration and social attitudes mean accents are

:18:07.:18:11.

changing faster. I'm originally from Wrexham in North Wales. I

:18:11.:18:17.

don't think I have an accent. brought up in London so I have a

:18:17.:18:25.

London accent. Every now and again, the African accent comes in.

:18:25.:18:34.

don't talk Cockney. My first language is afrikaans. South

:18:34.:18:40.

African. Accents is not just where you come from. We use our voice to

:18:40.:18:46.

send out signals. We change the accent constantly. Most of us have

:18:46.:18:54.

a telephone voice. Some will sift the accent down the scale. If I'm

:18:54.:19:01.

in a taxi cab, I have shift down. Linguists call it accommodation.

:19:01.:19:07.

Speaking to people in the way they appreciate. Only 2% of the

:19:07.:19:11.

population now speak with Received Pronunciation. What used to be

:19:11.:19:18.

called BBC English. Now people actively choose not to reflect

:19:18.:19:24.

their educational background in their accent. That's why you hear

:19:24.:19:32.

Tony Blair and David Cameron trying to suppress their accent.

:19:32.:19:36.

British Library has collected recordings of regional accents for

:19:36.:19:45.

more than a century. It documents the sound of the United Kingdom.

:19:45.:19:48.

Some regional voices appear to be quite popular at the moment,

:19:48.:19:55.

particularly among younger speakers. There's evidence soft Celtic voices,

:19:55.:20:02.

not very broud, quite noticeable Scottish, and Irish and Welsh

:20:02.:20:07.

voices. Is there a psychology of accents. If I was opening a call

:20:07.:20:14.

centre, would I choose a particular accent? A lot of research is done

:20:14.:20:23.

on call centres, depending on what type of call centre, a financial

:20:23.:20:27.

one, people prefer a northern accent. It's perceived to be more

:20:27.:20:34.

warm and friendly. If you want somebody with financial matters,

:20:34.:20:39.

you want somebody who can relate to you, rather than being aloof.

:20:39.:20:45.

That's sometimes what RP is considered. I've asked the voice

:20:45.:20:55.
:20:55.:20:57.

coach to the stars asked me to knock the RP off my accent. I think

:20:57.:21:07.
:21:07.:21:09.

the more generalised use of the language is the esturar English.

:21:09.:21:19.
:21:19.:21:25.

You put glottles in. You say wa, tr. And you make it move up and use the

:21:25.:21:30.

resonator. The upper resonator. the moment I'm being down here.

:21:30.:21:36.

You're being commanding and off putting and driving people away...

:21:36.:21:46.

It's the brand new Gyles Brandreth here, signing off in pure estuar

:21:46.:21:51.

for The One Show innit. We thought we would do role play. I'll be a

:21:51.:21:59.

customer and ring you, and you do your posh tell telephone voice.

:21:59.:22:05.

This conversation is being recorded and may be used for training

:22:05.:22:14.

purposes! It's ringing. Hello Alan Carr speaking. How can I help.

:22:14.:22:19.

wonder if you could help me. afraid I can't understand what

:22:19.:22:25.

you're saying, Welsh? Where are you from the valleys. I lost my credit

:22:25.:22:32.

card and I don't know what to do and what would your advice be.

:22:32.:22:42.
:22:42.:22:51.

do you last have it. I got into my ual yet. I'm in the zone. I used to

:22:51.:22:57.

answer Barclaycard, people thought is it a hoax! If you ring up, you

:22:57.:23:05.

have a familiar voice. Do people know it's Alan Carr. You can't

:23:05.:23:10.

complain. Hello I would like to complain. They say Oh Alan. When

:23:10.:23:18.

the car ran over me foot I had to laugh. You want to complain! It's

:23:18.:23:28.
:23:28.:23:29.

funny when I go to America, people think where is that accent from.

:23:29.:23:35.

Northampton. They must think there's a town where people sound

:23:35.:23:45.
:23:45.:23:46.

like they live under a pylon. let's look at your DVD. You have to

:23:46.:23:52.

stand two steps behind. When people start acting suspicious, they make

:23:52.:23:58.

you act suspicious. She was like this at the cash point. And she

:23:58.:24:07.

said to me, you're looking... You trying to steal from there. As if

:24:07.:24:17.

I'm going to steal from her. She was �62.12 overdrawn... And the pin

:24:17.:24:23.

number 1, 2, 3, 4 she's not the sharpest knife in the draw is she...

:24:23.:24:30.

That was a sell-out crowd. 13,000 people in Manchester. How does it

:24:30.:24:35.

feel to be back doing live stand up. I apologise for the people on the

:24:35.:24:42.

opening night in Brighton. I was terrified. I came in, hello my name

:24:42.:24:50.

is Alan Carr. I was going you have to relax Alan, they are here to see

:24:50.:24:58.

you. One lady went into labour. Brighton. I saw some people walking

:24:58.:25:06.

out. I thought people do anything to get out of the show. She went

:25:06.:25:16.
:25:16.:25:17.

home and had a little girbl called lily. And chatty man. Seventh

:25:17.:25:22.

series so successful. Is it dangerous getting the drinks out at

:25:22.:25:31.

the beginning. I get letherd so quickly. The aftershock. It was

:25:32.:25:36.

like Tesco value bleach. They were throwing to over their shoulder and

:25:36.:25:43.

I didn't know. I introduced the Saturdays as the Sunday's. It's

:25:43.:25:53.
:25:53.:25:57.

there about. Maria Carey brought her own �1,000 bottle of champagne.

:25:57.:26:07.
:26:07.:26:07.

By the time I have the third guest. I'm gagging for a kebab or a fight.

:26:07.:26:15.

I'm off me face! Let's see how Matt got on earlier today. I'm feeling

:26:15.:26:19.

all right this morning. We have something in the region of just

:26:19.:26:25.

over 70 miles to try and do today to get to the point where we'll be

:26:25.:26:31.

doing The One Show. Yesterday was a hard, hard day. My bum is red raw.

:26:31.:26:37.

And the guys riding with us, are saying you have to ride through it.

:26:37.:26:45.

I think my eyes might be watering for the first three miles. York,

:26:45.:26:55.
:26:55.:26:57.

here we come! Work for 20 metres. That's good. Don't think of the

:26:57.:27:05.

lactic acid. Now into day four and now have quite a lot of sympathy

:27:05.:27:11.

with my children when they used to have nappy rash. And 13 hours in

:27:11.:27:16.

the saddle yesterday didn't help, especially w in damp conditions. We

:27:16.:27:26.
:27:26.:27:27.

have done 40 miles. 30 to go... Well we can go back to York and

:27:27.:27:37.
:27:37.:27:38.

Matt's very sore back side. Are you recovering? Yeah I'm getting the

:27:38.:27:46.

layers on. I'm freezing. But the reception is so warm. There are so

:27:46.:27:51.

many people. It feels bizarre to be talking to people saying hello

:27:51.:27:57.

you're here to support me. People from Children In Need support.

:27:57.:28:05.

Cakes to keep me strength up. And we'll spop pop down here and say

:28:05.:28:11.

hello. We have Pudseys here. And York is the home of the Vikings.

:28:11.:28:19.

Can you do a posh telephone voice. I can idea Sir! Talking of things

:28:19.:28:27.

lovely and posh, how about this... Sit yourself in the back of the

:28:27.:28:33.

Rick 145. - rickshaw. Will you do me a favour and pour me a nice cup

:28:33.:28:40.

of tea and I'll take you back to Betty's. I have all the respect in

:28:40.:28:47.
