15/11/2017 The One Show

Hello and welcome to

The One Show with Alex Jones.

And Michael Ball.

On the day our six rickshaw riders

slogged their way over the border

from England into Scotland,

we've got one word for

you tonight - survival.

With us here in the warmth

are a comedian who is not a fan

of art and a survivalist who may

just have met his match.

When you're in a couple, you see the

entire world behind their head. You

look at their lovely face and the

world as a backdrop. When you take

that personal way, you see more

world. I went up the Eiffel Tower.

If you're not kissing someone, it's

just a high H. -- it's just a high

up cage.

I'm already lost!

That's the art of

the baser.

It's Bear Grylls and Sara Pascoe!

APPLAUSE.

Sara, you're here to talk

about your tour which is about

surviving a big breakup.

I've survived it, I broke up a year

ago.

Has writing about it helped

with the healing process?

I'm single for the first time since

2001. I'm in loving relationships,

like a genius. Now I'm living my

life by myself and having fun.

Bear

Grylls' new book is about surviving.

Any advice on how to survive a

break-up?

Time, love, family. That's

straight in at the deep end.

Michael

has put together a guide for

singledom.

Now - he might not have

been your First Love.

But he was one of your Heroes.

Shameless.

Ball - you're never coming back.

OK.

Well, if I couldn't have my own

music in a survival kit,

I'd definitely have something

by the duo we've got

performing tonight -

Jools Holland and Jose Feliciano.

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

Lots to look forward to tonight.

Some stunning news about

the rickshaw challenge

which we keeping under

wraps for now.

Pedal power has also been

the driving force behind

a spectacular renovation project

which has seen a crumbling

Victorian bathhouse not

just survive but thrive.

JJ has been to meet the two

brothers hoping to win

an award for their efforts.

Deep beneath the sea front here at

Hastings lies a vast man-made

cavern. In the late 1800 's,

Victorian architects created huge

underground swimming baths that were

enjoyed for decades by locals. They

closed in the 1980s. They became an

ice rink shortly after. But by the

late 1990s, the site was abandoned,

leaving it to fall into disrepair.

That was until 2013 when two

brothers embarked on an enormous

project to bring it back to life.

And this is what's here today. 18

metres underground, this part

attracts bikers and skaters from

around the world. It's also a

training ground for those just

getting started. Rich and Mark Moore

are the brothers behind the

transformation. This place is

awesome. What made you embark on

this.

We were BMX riders growing up

as kids, since we were really young.

We did this right every single day,

at the weekend it was a contest.

We

stumbled across this building in our

home town that had been derelict for

20 years. We figured it would make

the perfect skate park.

What was the

process like getting it from a dream

to a reality.

It has a chance

meeting. We were speaking to someone

working for the Council whose job it

was to look after this place. We had

a look around and it exploded from

there.

We had to raise over £1

million. Lots of meetings with

architects and specialists. It was a

three-year project, pretty

relentless.

It was a big risk for us

and we put everything on the line.

But we always knew we could pull it

off.

But this was a project that

offered unique challenges, as well

as unexpected rewards.

One of the

cool things about this building,

there are some original features

here, like the mosaic pillars. They

were covered up when we came here

the first time.

What were the main

challenges?

It's really hard to make

an underground building waterproof

when it was designed to be wet,

basically, it was a swimming pool

and they didn't care about it being

waterproof. Having would

underground, it had to be. There are

the cliffs through the town, and a

natural stream runs through the

cliff and runs into the basement. We

have some pumps and if one breaks,

which has happened a few times, the

alarms go off and we have to get rid

of it pretty quickly otherwise the

ramps start floating.

Before taking

on the project the brothers ran a

BMX shop in Hastings, which has

moved to the new site. This looks

like plans for a ship. I presume

it's this plates.

This is part of

the 250 page feasibility study we

did.

You are BMX shop owners. How

did you get to this?

There was a

moment in the shop where they

drilled the hole from the plan and

Sunshine started coming in by

mistake.

We have 30 people working

here, 70,000 people visited in the

first year. It gives you the feeling

that if you can restore a big

historic derelict building then you

can pretty much do anything.

And

their hard work hasn't gone

unnoticed. The park has been

nominated for an award by Historic

England, known as the Angel awards,

nominating those who have saved

their local heritage. What do the

people who use the venue think of

it?

I would say ten out of ten.

They

do coaching and I'm coming for a

free session at the girls night.

It's a really good place. Very good

to learn and there is loads of

variety of stuff.

The brothers have

not just rescued a much loved local

building. They have turned their

passion into a thriving business and

given its historic site a new lease

of life.

STUDIO: The Historic England Angel

Awards take place on Monday.

Good luck to all the entries

in the Best Rescue of

a Historic Building category.

Claire Slattery for the rescue

of The Piece Hall in Halifax

and The Worcestershire Building

Preservation Trust for the rescue of

Weavers' Cottages in Kidderminster.

Sara, these are the sort of facts

you used to have at your fingertips

because you used to be a tour

guide, we hear.

That's what I used to do in my

summer holidays from university.

What's the most weird fact you would

present groups of tourists with?

It's all weird. My favourite thing

is that there is a little black dot

on the clock at Whitehall for the

time they executed Charles I,

exactly opposite where they executed

him. When they put up the monarchy

with Charles II, they put up these

mementos to remind people not to do

it again.

And people got confused

about Stonehenge?

Americans, 1% of

Americans have a passport and they

all come to London and think it's

all here. They ask where the leaning

Tower of Pisa is. Which way to

Stonehenge, just quickly. People

will get off at Buckingham Palace

thinking they can just knock on the

door for the Queen.

When I was

filming in Caernarfon a group of

Americans said, do they pull the

castle down in the winter. They

thought it was cardboard.

You've survived Force 8 gales

crossing the Atlantic Ocean.

Your parachute failed to open

at 16,000 feet, which resulted

in you breaking your back

in three places.

You've braved temperatures

of minus 65 degrees flying

over the Himalayas.

And tackled altitudes of over 29,000

feet climbing Mount Everest.

You've put all the lessons

you learned into

the ultimate survival

guide for any situation,

we can't fault your research!

What was tightest spot

you ever found yourself in?

There have been a few over the

years. Parachute failures and being

pinned in big white water rapids and

bitten by snakes and close

encounters with sharks and

crocodiles. You name it. I have

learned so much from the stakes. I

always say my experience is the sum

of all my near misses, it's very

lucky and I'm very grateful for

life. It's fun to put it all

together in a book. I was trying to

think of a title. I thought, I'll

just call it How To Stay Alive. It's

more than the survival stuff, it's

everyday stuff as well. Car

breakdowns as well.

I don't have a

life quite as daring as yours. Who

are you aiming the book at?

I have

three boys and as they grow up I

thought, this sort of book before

they go travelling at the age of 18,

you have to take this with you and

read it. It's all about stuff, God

forbid, let's hope you don't get

caught in a tsunami, avalanche,

quicksand, bar fight, terrorist

attack, chemicals, but the people

who I met who have been caught in

these nightmare situation is always

say, I never thought it would happen

to me. There is a lot of information

in it. It's a big old thing. But you

have to hope little bits stay in

when something goes wrong. You only

need a couple of little things to

remember. You can use the valve from

this on a tyre blow out. I love this

stuff. My wife says to me, your head

is full of so much useless

information. And I say it's useless

until it all goes wrong.

Any near

death experiences, Sara?

Oh yes,

very similar. My dad lives in

Australia. You know how dangerous

the outback is. I was on a walk and

got lost for 15 minutes.

Don't

belittle that.

It's scary.

Getting

lost in the Australian outback,

that's a classic situation.

Stay

with the car. People are silly and

go looking for water. Stay with the

car.

They think they are just 11

miles from somewhere. Then they try

to use short cuts.

I have done this

on Dartmoor, the mist comes down and

you have no idea whether car is.

You

have experiences with comedians

taking them on extreme adventures.

You have had Ben Stiller, Miranda

Hart and Rob Brydon. Anybody that

you wish you could just leave there?

No. Super respect for all the

guests. What I have learned with

comedians is that they have a key

surviving trait, cheerfulness in

adversity. The number of times being

out there it's been pouring with

rain, everybody's sense of humour

has gone, but they are there and

they make light of everything.

Right Bear, scenario time.

Michael and showbiz partner

Alfie Boe are stranded

in the Cairngorm mountains.

Helicopter's made an emergency

landing after a show,

pilot unconscious, millions of fans

anxiously waiting for news.

What does he do because he's

forgotten to pack the book?

Schoolboy error. One of the first

thing is, as the Scouts say, and

it's great having so many in the

audience. Thanks for coming. But be

prepared. It's one of the most

important things. If you are going

on an adventure, tell people where

you are going and when you are due,

so if something happens you know

pretty quickly if somebody hasn't

turned up, you can go looking for

them. So often people go off and

nobody tells anybody and search and

rescue can't be notified for days or

weeks.

So if we do need to spend a

couple of days, what's the first

thing?

Shelter? The priorities of

survival are always the same, it's

about protection, water, shelter and

food. How are we building that

shelter?

Can you dig a snow hole?

Get into the snow. It's the opposite

to what you think it would be.

Snow

is a great insulator because it

traps air. All those snow crystals.

Get out of the window, because

that's a killer. If it's below zero,

snowy, get on the side of a slope.

You can dig into it and get out of

the wind. I have spent so many

nights in the snow holes. It can be

-40 outside but it will always be

about 1 degrees inside.

Alfie Boe

will have to do all the bidding.

Whilst the challenges Team Rickshaw

have been facing this week do not

include surviving shark attacks

or being stranded in the desert,

they do require just as much

grit and determination.

How close are you to

arriving in Hawick, Matt?

Oh, Michael, very close indeed. But

we haven't got there yet. This is

being beamed live to you from our

camera vehicle. Just a quick message

for all those who are in Hawick,

waiting for us, we will be there

soon enough. Ben is doing his best.

What an afternoon we have had. As

soon as we crossed the border into

Scotland, the landscape has just

been like this. So I have a pretty

tired Team Rickshaw, but all in good

spirits. Here is what has been

happening since we saw you last.

Our

plan today is to cycle 66 miles from

Penrith through the Scottish borders

to Hawick. Second longest ride of

the challenge so far. Are we all

set? As we are waved off by local

supporters, the cold begins to set

in. Ooh, it's fresh. That's it,

Luke. Keep the pace up, keep warm.

Just waiting for the sun to come up

and warm us up, because this is

freezing. Definitely the coldest

morning we have had. And as the

chill of dawn breaks, it's time for

morning song.

# here we go around the mulberry

bush, the Mulberry bush, the

Mulberry bush. Here we go around the

mulberry bush on a cold and frosty

morning. Day seven on the Rickshaw

Challenge. Things are getting weird.

Yes, it may still be cold, but we

are definitely feeling the warmth of

your generosity. Nice to see you,

good morning. A cheque for £600! And

it also warms my heart to see a past

rickshaw ride, Lucy, who is here to

offer her support. Well, I never.

Hiya, Lucy. Good to see you.

Remember the fist pump. We can't

stay too long, Scotland is calling.

We have had a few surprises on our

journey, and earlier in the

challenge, Ben was given a real

boost with the gift of his favourite

food, slithered by his inspiration

for this challenge, his sister Amy.

-- delivered by his sister. Sister

Amy, with chicken nuggets! Chicken

nuggets! Nice one. We have had many

a rider on Team Rickshaw throughout

the years who have had to cope with

conditions that have affected their

lives since birth. But the

17-year-old Schone from Inverness,

she only developed signs of homebred

disorder a few years ago, and it

completely turned her world upside

down. -- her rare disorder.

My

condition is degenerative, which

means it will get worse over time.

And when you say it is degenerative,

what do you feel like this year in

comparison to last year?

There are

lots of things I used to be able to

do, but I can't do now. I can't ride

a bike because of my balance

problems. But I can ride a three

wheel and I think I have done

amazing.

Shona has always been a

keen student, but her condition has

hindered her learning ability. What

plans do you have?

I would like to

do something with children after I

finish school. But I don't think I

will get the grades to be able to go

to university.

You have done so well.

I just wanted

to be able to do something like this

while I still can.

Shona, we've done

it. Approaching Li Tao water, the

team finally crossed the border into

Scotland. We are on the home

stretch. Here we go! We are about to

enter Scotland. Hello, Scotland!

That have the first high of

Scotland. Lovely, thank you. I

cannot believe we are reading the

sign that says Scotland. We have

made it to Scotland! Yes! Well, I

know I said it earlier, but since

then, the Hills have been absolutely

incredible.

And Team Rickshaw have

put in a sterling effort. Benjamin

's legs have been exhausted, but

there has been an incentive for you

to get to Hawick because I told him

five minutes ago that his sister

Amy, who he supports and cares for,

is going to be there with the rest

of his family. What are you going to

be saying to your sister when you

see her?

Just how much I love her

and have Mr at how weird it has been

not being with her every single day.

-- I have missed her.

But you have

had a break for yourself, because

you spend so much of your time

caring for her, and you have done

this for you and had a great time.

Yeah.

And your mum and dad will be

there. Just before we got us to the

Scottish borders, we had a spot of

lunch, and while we were there I got

the whole team to tell you how you

can show your support. If you would

like to show your support for this

wonderful team, all you have to do

is text. Ready?

From all of us here, thank you! Do

we have got heads down now. We are

pushing on. We will be in the middle

of Hawick in a matter of minutes. I

am so sorry we couldn't get there in

time, but we did what we give. See

you in a second. See you soon!

It is amazing to see the

determination from Ben.

He is a

gorgeous young man. And Shona, God

love her.

You couldn't grasp what

you were hearing, Bear.

Right there

is heroism, isn't it? Sometimes, it

you forget the battles people go

through. Actually, the heart of all

survival is that spirit. I look at

someone like that and Shona, if you

are watching, what an amazing young

lady.

I think it is important to

show how people care about other

people, these people who are

struggling who still empathise with

all the children and want to help.

At the moment, our government thinks

that none of us care about each

other, so it is important to see

that people really do.

Well, we will

see the crew shortly Hawick,

hopefully and we will be back with

Matt later. Let's add our thanks to

all the people who have lined the

route to cheer the team on since

Thursday. Matt and the team really

appreciate it, even if they don't

have time to stop. If you have been

stuck behind a rickshaw, like so

much for your patience. It means the

world.

This time last week in the

middle of the show, Priti Patel

resigned from the government. The

week before, Michael Fallon

resigned. If it happens again

tonight, something is seriously

strange.

Boris, we have our eye on

you. One of the remarkable things

about last week's drama was that

20,000 people used an app to follow

Priti Patel's flight home from

Africa, and Rory Reid explained how

it is done.

I'm a huge fan of claims. -- of

planes. But these days, I don't have

to travel to get an incredible view

of the skies. With the latest plane

tracking apps, anyone can follow

thousands of flights in real-time.

The sheer number is mind-blowing.

And you can even zoom in on

individual planes and the complex

3-D network of flight paths above

our heads. But how are we able to

track every plane in so much detail?

Many of the apps use the same data

as a traffic control. To find out

how it works, I've come to a traffic

control HQ in Swanwick. Here, they

are monitoring every flight over

England and Wales. Gary Dixon is the

deputy manager.

Well currently

looking after a thousand flights per

day coming through.

Each controller

is responsible for tracking hundreds

of planes Abate, and their primary

is ground-based radar.

Each of the

individual targets is an aircraft.

They are tracked by a global network

of radar towers. But this limits

planes to set flight paths that

follow the ground-based receivers.

It's why planes don't always take

the most direct route. These aerial

motorways cover the entire planet,

and it's up to control is to keep

the thousands of flights using them

safe, separating them by attitude

and distance. They monitor their

progress on these screens, which

show a bird's eye view of a portion

of airspace and every plane flying

through it. Right now, we have two

boxes flashing as two yellow dots

head towards each other.

Yeah, the

separation standard is a minimum of

five nautical miles and is indicated

to controller that they need to need

to intervene to maintain that

separation.

That has stopped

flashing now, a good sign.

That is

always a good sign. But radar

doesn't detect every plane all of

the time. There are blackspots such

as over oceans. It is estimated that

just 10% of the planet has radar

cover. So instead, controllers are

turning to a technology we all use

everyday, GPS. And in the future, it

could replace radar altogether.

Modern planes already constantly

transmit their GPS position. This is

what many flight apps are now

picking up. It's a system called a

DSP. Using this, controllers will be

able to see where a plane is every

second, wherever it is in the world.

It will also enable pilots to take

more direct flight paths, saving

fuel and meaning we all get to our

destination quicker. ' what the

aircraft are going to do and that

allows us to increase the capacity

while maintaining the safety.

Technology is helping air-traffic

control keep a close eye on flights

at airports too. This is a view of

London City Airport. But we aren't

there. It's the UK's first digital

tower. The idea is to relocate

controllers from airports to

Swanwick, bringing air-traffic

control together in one central hub.

Steven Anderson is the project

leader. How is this better than

being there on the ground?

We can

augment these windows, so you can

have radar data and zoom cameras.

It

is a better picture for the

controllers. Sent via a superfast

fibre connection, these panoramic

four K monitors display real-time

views of the airports, provided by

high-definition and tilt and zoom

cameras. Controllers can hone in on

an object just four pixels across.

The first airport to test it out is

London City Airport and if

successful, it could replace

traditional towers across the

country. Obviously, there are people

watching this who might be a bit

unnerved about what they are seeing.

What would you say to reassure them?

It's very safe. We have multiple

back-ups. It has been tested to

destruction.

This is the future,

isn't it? They say it has been

tested to destruction, but when is

this going to happen, Rory?

It's

been tested in a lot of small

airports and also in Dublin and

Sweden. And it's going to happen at

London City in 2019, less than two

years.

Very soon.

And it will be as

safe as being at the airport?

Well,

I went to Swanwick and it was like

walking into an airport. There are

tall walls and metal detectors.

Interestingly, when you walk into

the tower at Heathrow Airport, what

I found interesting is that everyone

inside is not looking at the window,

they are looking at their computer

screens. So I would not be worried

about them being nowhere near the

airport but in a room hundreds of

miles away, because they have all

the information they need on their

screens, which are augmented with

extra information.

The worry is

having them all operate out of the

same building. I mean, power cut?

That could happen. But they have

multiple power sources, multiple

broadband connections. They have

three separate broadband connections

with three separate companies and

the roots go in three separate

directions. So if one goes down, you

have got back-up.

Will go with it. Thanks, Rory.

Sara...

Let's talk about your new tour,

LadsLadsLads, which came

about after you broke up

with your boyfriend last Christmas -

how do you pronounce it??

It's...

She's right.

I'm saying

lads, behave.

Now it's a fun kind of

thing. I thought I would have an

idea, I will live my next year of

life like I'm on a stag do. But I've

never been on one so I'm guessing

what it's like.

I've never been on a

stag do.

I wouldn't want to live my

entire life like a stag do. That's a

long hangover.

We need to get you

both on a stag do together.

It would

be perfect!

This is the sort of

thing people can expect.

There's a

good part of an art gallery, and

it's called the gift shop. Pencils,

sharpness, postcards. But everyone

is very disapproving if you run

through the gallery yelling, gift

shop! You are supposed to stop and

look at some of the pictures. Why

are we stopping and looking? It's

not magic eye. I can see what they

are straightaway. Dogs, horse, dead

old rich person. Gift shop!

You have

hit the nail on the head. The

Victoria and Albert gift shop is up

there with my favourites.

They are

brilliant. And the thing about

stationery, it brings out your inner

nine-year-old. I just want another

pencil sharpener, and a pencil case

to put it in.

I was at the Edinburgh

fringe doing a show this year. And

everyone was talking about you and

your ex both doing separate shows at

the same time. Is there more

material now about that?

The exact

opposite. We met through comedy, me

and my ex boyfriend. me and John

Robins. Our shows were on at the

same time in the same venue.

Afterwards it looked like a

marketing ploy and it really wasn't.

But his show did really well and he

won the Edinburgh prize. It's very

exciting.

Let's move on. You have

gone on this voyage of discovery

since John.

I'm trying to do. After

we broke up, I've never been on a

yoga retreat and I thought it would

be very spiritual. I thought, I will

go to Costa Rica in Spain. It isn't

there, I found out it's in the

jungle, it's not in Spain. I found

out on the plane. There was a

scorpion in my shack for five days.

That was breakfast. It moved every

day to keep me on my toes. By the

end of five days I found it very

beautiful. But I was terrified.

There were tarantulas. It's amazing.

Not the most peaceful place to do

yoga.

I am very anxious and jumpy

now.

Have you gone back into the

dating game? Are you swiping?

Because I have talked onstage about

not having boyfriend, yesterday I

got asked by a 17-year-old to be a

date for his 18th birthday. I got

asked out by any 88-year-old man,

very confidently. He said that we

have a lot of things in common. He

gave me a list of topics of

conversation.

Oh no. Are you ready

for a relationship or not. Are you

in the market?

It's such a weird

thing to think about. I really love

my job and I'm busy. But I do. I am

happy.

Would any man that came on

the scene have to appreciate the

fact that he might turn out as

material in your stand up?

From the

very first date, you are auditioning

to getting my show. You would have

to have some weird kinks and stuff

to write about.

You will be flooded

with offers after this.

What about

Christmas, because last year was

disastrous.

This year I am going to

Bali by myself to a yoga retreat. I

know that it's not in Europe. The

only time I don't do gigs is over

Christmas because it gets very

lairy.

That show, LadsLadsLads

starts on the 15th of January at the

Wyndham 's Theatre in London.

It's five months since the Grenfell

fire disaster, five months

during which politicians have been

challenged to completely overhaul

building safety and housing policy.

Thirty years ago a fire

on the London Underground

had a similar effect,

leading to sweeping changes.

We spoke to two people

who were there.

It just was a huge wall of fire that

pushed itself across the ticket

hall.

I looked, and it was like an

upturned rocket. Folds of grey and

yellow smoke were pouring up into

the night sky.

I stood at the end of the platform

and could see people being directed

off but couldn't hear what was being

said. So I followed everybody back

out towards the escalator. I came up

and saw a police officer. He

shouted, get out, get out. People

were running around the ticket hall.

I couldn't really get a sense of

what they were running to or from.

And then a lot happened in a very

short period of time. There was a

huge fireball that shot across the

ticket hall. It was followed by a

thick lack smoke which began to

descend from the ceiling. I got hit

by this ball of flame and caught

fire. I dropped to the floor because

I knew I had to try to get the

flames out. I was face down, trying

to breathe. I was really struggling.

I didn't think at that point I was

going to get out. I continued

crawling about for what seemed like

an eternity. I ended up at the

bottom of a set of stairs. A member

of the public came and took me out

to street level.

We were the first machine on the

scene. Myself, Colin Townsley, the

station officer in charge and two

colleagues, making our way to the

top of the Northern line escalator.

We saw flames coming up three or

four feet up. Colin immediately

said, go out and get sets and get a

hose down here. We made our way

outside at that point. There was a

huge whoosh and masses of smoke

coming out of the tunnel. I was

dumbfounded, we had never seen

anything like it. We got on our

hands and knees and crawled down the

fares. We were forced to lower and

lower all the time by the

temperature. -- down the stairs. I

had one hand on the wall and another

in front of me as I scuttled along.

Within no time at all I felt

someone. I knew it would be Colin. I

heaved him forward a little way to

the bottom of the stairs. I said to

them, give me a hand quickly, I've

found Colin. A little while later,

unfortunately, a senior officer

called us together and told us that

Colin had died. He was a good

fireman. A likeable man, family man.

I knew it would be tough. These

positions are where firefighters

keep their firefighting gear. This

one, that was Colin's has been kept

empty in memory of him. This is so

we can keep in mind the sacrifice he

made for all of us.

30 years later,

it feels like yesterday. Some

elements of it feel like it happened

to someone else. I have about 40%

burns, they are mostly hidden. Apart

from my hands. I am incredibly lucky

that this is all it is. Incredibly

lucky I was able to survive.

STUDIO: Thank you to the two of

them. I remember that well. Sara,

you are familiar with that memorial.

I go through King's Cross quite a

lot. I was about seven when they had

the fire. I remember being told for

years, you used to be able to smoke

on trains!

I can't believe that.

Right, it's time to meet

Jools Holland and his latest

superstar collaborator Jose

Feliciano.

# This Old White has gone by

# I can't change it and I won't try.

# I have not always been as you see

me now.

# Feliz Navidad...

# I would give up everything just to

be home with you.

# I would give up everything just to

be home with you.

APPLAUSE

You have worked together on an

album, As You See Me Now, which is

out on Friday. Two very different

styles, boogie-woogie piano and your

Latin guitar. What made you decide

to put these together?

On paper,

Jose's guitar and my piano, how does

it add up? But I loved his singing

and his voice and I loved his guitar

playing ever since I was a kid. When

he came on the Later show it was

great working with him and I loved

an element about his voice. I loved

his music. It clashes together and

it shouldn't work, but it works

great. I can't tell you how happy I

am to have made this record. He's a

fella.

Thank you. There is a good

mash up of things. Some ska is in

there. My Tsonga has been ska'd!

You

have both worked separately with

people. Who was most honoured to be

working with who here?

I think we

both were. It wasn't where one was

honoured more than the other. It's

the same as, in the music, sometimes

you do a duet with someone and maybe

that particular person is a real

jerk or whatever. And you decide,

OK, and either you try to out sing

them or out whatever. I didn't want

to do that with Jools Holland. I'm

grateful and happy to be on tour

with him.

You have worked with some

legendary people, Michael Jackson,

Frank Sinatra, Johnny Cash. When you

work with some great, it brings out

the best in you.

It does, and Jools

did that with this album. It's a

great album and I hope Britain picks

it up and puts it on the bestseller

charts at number one. That's what I

hope.

You've just had a number one.

He never mentions it!

It's not in my

nature. I have been playing the

record on my show on Radio 2 and

there has been a great response. You

are in the middle of the tour at the

moment.

We are having great fun.

When you admire somebody is

playing... When I was 14, getting up

and going to school. I didn't want

to go to school, but hearing Jose's

records, I would jump out of bed.

The amazing sound of that voice and

guitar. But being with him, it's

great being on stage. How does that

work with the big band? We will show

you in a minute will stop it mashes

together well.

We are thrilled you

are playing live this evening.

We

will do an old song. We have done a

mixture of old songs and other

stuff. But we're doing an old

Leadbelly song called Midnight

Special.

I know it well.

I was going

to say something but I have lost my

train of thought! I'm very happy to

be here and happy to be on the Alex

and Mike show. I'm thrilled. It's

great and thank you so much for

having us.

We are thrilled to have

you, Jose. We can go to Hawick now

to find out how much money you have

raised two children in need with the

end of the ride in Glasgow just two

days ago.

And please give

generously.

We are just literally coming round

here. We have arrived in Hawick!

Hello, everybody! Ben, your family

are here. We have mum and dad and

grandparents. Amy is here. We have

literally just arrived. Ben, go and

have a lovely hug with your mum and

dad. There is Amy, star of the show.

Oh, my word. Mum, do you mind if I

come and have a word? You are of

course one proud mum. You have set

up a whole charity anyway in Amy's

name. Amy, how well do you think he

has done?

Did! -- good!

We have had

so much fun. But you have set up a

charity in Amy's name all about her

syndrome. You give so much support

to others, but how much support does

your son give you?

Ben doesn't

realise how much support he gives

not only me, but everybody. He's an

absolute treasure, aren't you?

Isn't

he a treasure? And dad, he goes

through so much and he looks after

his sister and supports everybody.

It's a lot for a teenager.

Absolutely, and he just takes it in

his stride. He is incredible.

And he

is so helpful of those hills,

especially now we have come to

Scotland. But he likes a massage as

well. Let's hear it for Team

Rickshaw! What a team effort.

Honestly, Hawick, you live in a very

hilly place. I have a lot of respect

for anybody who has to bike around

here. Now it is speech time. Graham

Norton has played host to many stars

throughout the years. Everybody from

Tom Cruise through to Meryl Streep.

But tonight, in my eyes, it's time

for a real star. Let's hear it for

Liv, everyone! This is what happened

when she met up with Graham.

I want

to introduce you to someone very

special who is taking part in this

year's Children In Need Rickshaw

Challenge. Please give a warm

welcome for Liv Hodge!

Hi. In

October 2015, everything changed for

me and my family. My dad had gone to

the doctor with what he thought was

a minor problem, but tests revealed

it to be pancreatic cancer. We were

all in deep shock. I didn't know

quite what to do. I felt cut off

from everyone around me and I felt

angry and upset. I began to help

care for dad, but to see him losing

strength and in pain was incredibly

hard. It was the toughest thing I

have ever seen. Dad wanted to stay

alive until my 18th birthday, but

sadly, he didn't last that long. We

were with him when he passed away in

June last year. Things got worse for

me. I just want to be alone, and I

didn't want to leave the house. I

couldn't imagine what could make

life better. I started going to a

hospice which runs a bereavement

counselling project funded by

Children In Need. Gradually, I could

share all the emotions I was going

through and find a way to grow in

self-confidence. It's really changed

my life. This year, I am taking part

in the Rickshaw Challenge. I know my

dad would be so proud of me for

taking part. I am also doing it to

give something back. These give

whatever you can and thank you.

You told me you were shy.

I am!

You

did incredibly well in front of all

those people.

Thank you. You sort of

find it inside you to raise

awareness for something important.

Of course. That is why you are all

here, telling your stories, so you

can raise as much money as you can.

And you know what it is like to get

that support. If you want to show

your support, you can do it with a

simple text.

And to everybody who has donated so

far, a huge thank you from

everybody.

Thank you!

We have got

time just for a little chat. I think

we will talk to you first. You put

in a massive shift today and a

massive shift yesterday, going up to

the highest point on the route so

far. Describe Scotland so far. This

is your home turf, so you can be

brutal!

It was harder today than

yesterday. But it is your home

country, so it is always amazing.

The views were amazing all day.

They

were. You described it as harder

than the Lake District.

It felt much

tougher than the Lake District,

because it was a constant hill to

keep going up.

Shona, we have got

Ellie in the audience. Give us a

wave. You are there! Shona was

excited about coming to see you. You

probably can't answer this, because

you have been doing a sponsored

silence. But you have raised an

incredible £435! Well done to the

guides. We met up earlier, because

you were going through dialysis

today. This is a real challenge for

us, because you have dialysis three

or four times a week. How are you

feeling now?

I feel pretty great. I

could do another ten miles.

Don't

say that, you will be first on!

I'm

really tired. It has been a long

day.

I was so concerned about this

section and a section that is to

come, Hawick, Edinburgh and the

finish line. Things are going to get

tough. We have already done 392

miles. That deserves a huge round of

applause. Last night, Sadio Mane

gave a little message to Luke. I

don't know how many times you have

played that message back today, but

it has been quite something.

Everton, of course, didn't want to

be out done here, Ben. So it's time

for your little surprise.

Hi, Ben. I

just wanted to say I hope the

Rickshaw Challenge is going well and

everyone at Everton is behind you.

What you're doing on behalf of your

sister Aimee is really special. It's

a brilliant thing to do and we are

all proud of you, as I am sure your

family. We have been told you are a

big Blue, so we would like to invite

you for a behind the scenes

experience. We look forward to

seeing you soon. Good luck with the

challenge.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.

You two are going to be having it

out tomorrow. Speaking of tomorrow,

would you like to see the route? It

is going to be a good one. Here

comes the map. We are off to Selkirk

and there are going to Dalkeith,

hopefully arriving at Edinburgh

Castle at seven o'clock. Do you want

a bit of motivation to send you on

your weight? You know how I said I

didn't know how much money we have

raised so far? It was a bit of a

white lie. I know everybody out

there is interested as well. Thank

you for all of the donations you

have given so far. Here is the

midweek total. Hawick is famous for

its rugby, so we have got the local

rugby team along to help us with

this. Ladies and gentlemen, so far,

bearing in mind that it is

Wednesday, Team Rickshaw have raised

a

phenomenal 1,000,520 pounds! We do

have to point out that this total

would not be as big as it is without

the huge generosity of everybody out

there. It is extraordinary to say

that if you donated £1 or £20, it

means so much. We have had an

incredibly generous donation that

has come in from Sir Tom Hunter and

Lady Marion Hunter from the Hunter

foundation. They think you are so

inspirational that they have given

you £200,000! Thank you so much to

everybody. We are off to Edinburgh.

We will see you tomorrow.

What an

amazing total. Thanks to our guests

and thanks to the Scouts but now

performing Midnight Special are

Jools Holland and Jose Feliciano

with the Rhythm and Blues Orchestra.

See you tomorrow.

# Well, you wake up in the mornin'

# You hear the ding-dong ring

# You go marching to the table

# It's the same old thing

# Ain't no pork upon the table

# There is nothing in the pan

# You get in trouble with the man

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Umbrella on her shoulder

# Piece of paper in her hand

# She come to see the governor:

# "I'm gonna free my man"

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine an ever lovin' light on me

# If you ever go to Houston

# You know you better walk right

# And you better not squabble

# And you better not fight

# Or the sheriff will arrest you

# And he'll take you down

# And the judge

is gonna sentence you

# And you'll be sugarland bound

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine a light on me

# Let the midnight special

# Shine an ever lovin' light on me.

CHEERING AND APPLAUSE.
