Billy Ocean and Lee Mack! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE Oh, a kiss. I

can't move my arms, Lee. How are you doing? We were talking about your

favourite hit, our favourite hits of yours. There has been so many, When

The Going Gets Tough, Suddenly. One of my favourites. 76. That was a

good year. Love Really Hurts Without You. You had a brilliant sense of

style. The photos we found were phenomenonal. We liked the banana

suit. This was nice. The country check. That is one of my favourites.

All very tight. I had the figure to wear tight things in those days. I

was young and brave. I wouldn't do it now. You were a tailor by trade?

I made a lot of those things. I couldn't afford to, like I do now, I

get my suits from sav ril row, etc, etc. But in them days I couldn't

afford suits and things. I used to make my own. They were easy to make.

Catsuits and trousers, simple things, simple but effective. If it

was a bit tight it really didn't matter back then, did it? You could

pull them off. Lee, on the other hand, in the 8 o 0's. Sorry... We

have a lovely picture of you. As you can see, I have my own Mickey Mouse

ears. Thats with a shadow. That wasn't a hat I had on. You have

changed so much, Lee. I used to go down to Boots and see what I could

pick up. It was a case of - affordability. Is that why you went

to boot sales. It was because I genuinely thought I looked cool. It

is a look I wanted because someone says to you - was that just because

of affordability! We want to find a viewer who has changed their style

the most over the decades. Maybe you were a punk who is prim and proper.

Maybe you were a goth who is now into golf wear. Send your photos

into the usual address. A letter sent to 11-year-old pupils from the

head of Barrowford Primary School has caused an online sensation. It

told them that there was much more to life than just their exam

results. It says: Billy, nodding away. We will read

on. They also said: So we asked some of our friends to

think about the advice they would give their 11-year-old selves. Dear

John, you have passed the 11 Plus. That means you're good at passing

exams you've been carefully prepared for. It doesn't mean you know very

much. The you will have to go on learning for the rest of your life.

Dear Carrie, yeah, you are different. Over the next few years

you will realise what a massive advantage that is being different.

School has made you think that you are being squeezed into a box. But

you are a box crusher. You are a boundary pusher. You are a creative

thinker. Everything looks a little grey right now, from your home life

to your second hand school uniform. In a few years from now you will be

a woman of colour and you won't be afraid to stand out. Dear Dan, life

is about to get tricky. Hang tough. The good times are just ahead over

the horizon. Never let anybody tell you you can't achieve something. All

the people who won Olympic gold medals, started successful

businesses, come up with inventions, they were all 11-year-olds ones,

they thought they were losers too. Be careful of alcohol. You're older

brother might have thought it funny in France when you got tipsy after a

glass of wine. When your bedroom started to rotate you knew it was a

mistake. Dream big dreams. Live a big, hairy audacious life. Most

importantingly, always love your self. -- You think you have it

tough. You are one of the luckiest people in history. Being born in

Britain at the end of the 2 o 0th century mean you have won the

Lottery. Other people wrestle with war and disease, we have it easy

compared to them. Next time you are complaining about what football

cards you are missing, remember that. In the end, friendship matters

more than passing exams. Good luck, John. Good luck, Dan. Love, Carrie.

Gets you thinking. Yeah. Doesn't it? Great sentiment in that film from

all of them who took part. That is right. What would you say to an

11-year-old self? I would say, pursue your dream. Because I was

never academic. I was fortunate that my parents encouraged me to pursue

my - musical ambition. My father was a musician. You know, a lot of

encouragement came from there. You know, the kids who have a talent and

want to go this way and their parents are forcing them to go this

way, another direction. I think it's very unfortunate really. I say,

pursue your dreams. It's more important and having a social life

doing the things that you enjoy doing most. I mean, what can be

better than that? Similar to the thought in the letter at the

beginning we talked about. What about you Lee? I have a school

report about that age. It says - sooner or later Lee will realise

that joking around in class will get him nowhere in life! You proved him

right. I would rite write to myself, can carry on falling off that chair

for cheap laughs. I know this, Lee, you have - do that, stick your arms

up in the air. You know what this plate of stuff is all about. Billy

have you seen this lot? No, I've never seen. It they are you canner

bands. They are called Loom Bracelets. They are bracelet making

craze sweeping the world, amongst youngsters. You will have a head

start, Lee. We have a kit. Maybe with the help of Lee. You can make

something in the next three-and-a-half minutes. Oh, right.

We can do this. Anita will explain how these little bands have become

the bane of vacuum cleaners all over Britain. The going will get tough. I

don't know if you have written a song about it.

The latest global sensation is loom bands. Now, celebrities have been

spotted wearing them. The Duchess of Cambridge and even David Beckham.

They're definitely big business, what is making kids loopy for looms?

Hi. This is the loom. You put rubber bands around. What do you do with

that? Then you make stuff and hook them together. Yes. That is the

finished product? Yeah. Would you say you were obsessed? Yeah.

Everyone into loom bands. Boys aren't as obsessed with loom bands

as girls are. Is this a fad, will you soon be moving on to something

else? Maybe grow out of it. Get fed up eventually. Hopefully, not for a

long time. The creator has seen rainbow looms develop into a

multi-million-pound business. Lovely to see you. Where did the idea come

from? This idea started from my daughters. They were making rubber

band bracelets and helped each other to make it. The rubber bands kept

falling apart. I came up with a simple loom. It's been lucrative for

you. I read reports you have made $80 million? Last year, in US, we

sold $4 million worth of rubber bands and loom. Whatever happened

last year is happening now on the international arena. Mums, tell me

how you feel about this fad? international arena. Mums, tell me

are into it. Obsessed. They have 8,000 bands and want to go out with

their pocket money and buy more bands. You are like - really, do we

need more. It keeps them from the TV and computers. It's a creative thing

to do. They find out how to make even more complicate and exciting

things. They team themselves. They are being resourceful as well. How

good do you think you would be doing it? Have you tried o? Never tried.

It's challenge time to it? Have you tried o? Never tried.

adults can keep up with the kids. You have three minutes on the clock,

starting from... NOW! Get looming. I can see the attraction. Can you? I'm

finding it annoying at the moment. Half

And, everyone, your time is up! OK, mums, let us see how you have done.

Reveal - that's not bad. mums, let us see how you have done.

mums. Well done. mums, let us see how you have done.

you've managed to do in three minutes. Da-da! I think we know who

is the more profishent loomer, the kids! Round of applause. Good team

effort. Good effort. Billy, to be fair, didn't see much of that film

he was looking down the whole time. Let us see how far you have got?

Some. The basis for something. You are wearing it well. You are! Lee,

you've managed to do more. With my finishing touches. The He did very

well. Look at that. It's a full dress!

APPLAUSE. Not bad! We happen to know that that

lovely dress was brought in by Catherine Wright and her dawn Sian

and made by Kathryn Burnand. Surely Kathryn Rubberbanand. How long did

it take to make? 45 hours. How many loom bands? Over 20,000. Wonderful

family entertainment. I'm sure you will agree. On that family theme.

You are fascinated. I can't believe I'm sitting on a sofa talking rubber

bands with Billy Ocean. Typical One Show. You were into the family you

took a 14-year break at the height of your career to concentrate on

looking after the kids? Yeah. It wasn't meant to be 14 years, it was

taking time off. The kids started growing up. You know, my wife had to

make several trips. I thought to myself. In fairness, I had done, had

a certain amount of success in America. I had something like seven

top 10, four number ones, etc, etc. Satisfied with what you achieved?

Not quite. You don't get that much achievement without being slightly

selfish. I just... Guilt set in. I thought, take time off and help out.

There are so many things outside of what you are doing, you find if you

stop for a while there are so many things to get involved in. That is

more or less what happened. By the end of - it was more than 14 years.

17 years, I thought, hold on, I'm supposed to be singing and making

music. I sort of got back. You enjoyed the family so much. Yeah. My

eldest daughter is one of my singers. Backing singers. That is

right. Cherie. Before 19 93 you had sold over 30 million albums. Can you

believe it? Worldwide. Let us look at some

believe it? Worldwide. Let us look at classic Ocean.

# Baby, love really hurts without you

# Love really hurts without you # Now we're sharing the same dreams

# Suddenly, life has new meaning to me

# When the going gets tough # The tough get going. #

Have you smooched to a Billy Ocean song? Is this a classic Welsh chat

up line? I think it was When the Going Gets Tough! I have been known

to... Haven't we all? I am glad to be of service! Billy, you have got a

new single out, Love Train. Also, a new album as well. , Love Train is a

beautiful song for this time of our lives. It is very happy. Let us all

get together. It is really happy. There is enough sadness. I think I

am very fortunate to have chosen that particular song at this time.

It was just a coincidence. The album, Here You Are, covers of

people you have admired. Who have you chosen? Let me give you a brief

about the album. It is about a song that inspired me when I was growing

up. My father used to be a musician and one day he came home, I don't

know if you might remember, the old Philips radio, on and off switch,

one day, my father sat down, there was not any money to buy food and

one day he came home with this radio. Where he got it from, all I

can imagine is someone's radio went missing. In the goodness of his

heart committee brought radio home. On switching on this very simple

radio, I heard songs I would not have heard otherwise, international

songs, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole. My mother used to be domestic

so she used to iron and wash people's close and on Saturday

nights, it was ironing night. She would say to me, son, come and sing

for me. I used to learn these songs and sing. This is a thank you to all

of the people who have inspired you. I thought, one day when I grow

up... I am still growing up! I thought I would love to do something

with the songs. From those artists to some other artists. In April we

launched our summer art competition and we had hundreds of entries from

all over the UK. Last month the short list was whittled down to six

finalists whose work is on display in the Royal Academy Summer

Exhibition. Before Nick announces the result for the 13 to

17-year-old category, here is a reminder of the talented artists. In

April, we launched The One Show Summer Art Competition 2014 for

amateur artists. Last month we moved one step closer to finding our

winner when the judges selected re-entries from each category to go

through to the final. From the short listed entries here at The One Show

Summer Art Competition at the Royal Academy in London. Our first

finalist in a 13 to 17-year-old category is Lydia from Norfolk who

was 15. The judges loved the inventiveness of colour and also the

boldness of the painting. Being a finalist is really exciting for me.

I did not expect it at all. I think the competition has given me a lot

of confidence. In myself and the way I work. They trick spotter is my

main inspiration for my work -- Beatrice Potter. For my final piece

for the competition, I looked at things around where I live and where

I sit and paint in my room. It overlooks a meadow. I often see barn

owls hunting outside the window. Of course it would be nice to win, but

it is not too important for me, it is just nice to be there. Our next

finalist, Spencer, 16, from Preston. The judges loved the way he painted

the dog's fur. I have never had anything in a gallery before, do

have it in the Royal Academy, it feels really good. I prefer

portraits of people. I enjoy doing animals as well, but I like to try a

few different things sometimes and experiment a bit with what I am

doing. I was speaking to my dad about who I could do and he

suggested my great Granma. I can do it all day. The last and youngest

finalist is 14 and comes from Cumbria. The judges loved this

because it is done in pirate and said the virtuosity of the picture

was magnificent -- it is done in a Bich Biro. My previous piece, I

spent hours. I am normally really happy that one of my pieces of

workers in the Royal Academy. They thought of getting another one is

amazing. Three talented people but who has got what it takes to produce

a winner. I would not like to be a judge. Luckily, we have got Nick

Grimshaw! You are presenting the award for the 13 to 17-year-old

category. You have been celebrating at the Royal Academy with the head

honcho 's. How tense was the judging process? It was really hard. As we

saw last time, the level was so high. They stepped it up this time.

They were all really different. I liked them all for different

reasons. It was quite hard. Tougher than I thought. I am sure. What does

Andrew think? We saw you earlier, we are very excited about having a look

at this work. Were you surprised at the level? It is worryingly high.

The other thing to say is that as you will see in a moment, they are

all very different pictures. You are judging apples and

all very different pictures. You are hard. We came to a decision but they

are all fantastic. First, let us have a look at Lydia's second piece

submitted for the final. It is a dog. Nick, what was your verdict?

Did it start as an owl? She thought about drawing an owl! I was drawn to

it immediately. I love a dog and the expression. He looks so happy and

excited. I love the nose. It is amazing. He looks so good on telly

which is rarely and for us! -- which is brilliant for us. Spencer

Grimshaw from Preston. No relation! Beautiful. This is your great nan.

We thought she was having a trip of some kind! Slightly scary mouth.

Look at the skin, how good the mottled skin is, really talented

piece of painting. In acrylics, maybe. Oils. What is really clever

is that each tiny bit seems to jump out. Your eye keeps moving around.

Last but not least, Georgia. What did you think of this? Last time you

did the self-portrait in biro. I loved the detail. We loved all of

the light reflections. Incredible. Looking into the distance, I wonder

what she is looking at. This is the under 17! Mad! The moment has come.

Would you like to announce the winner of the 13 to 17-year-old

category? It is tough at over to you. We have decided it is Georgie.

APPLAUSE Great news! They are all brilliant.

They are also amazing, it was really hard. We loved them all for

different reasons. You have all got a great deal to be proud of. Keep

going. Great careers in front of you. You will sell pictures in the

future. The good news is both of your works of art will be at the

Royal Academy which is fantastic. Amazing. Still to come, the winner

of the over 18 category. What if instead of doling out

antidepressants, what if they had another way of tackling loneliness

in elderly people? Here is Joe Crowley.

Who would have thought it could make us happier, healthier and even

bridge the generation gap? The humble hen. Until last year, the

older residents of this housing association in Gateshead knew next

to nothing about hens. Now thanks to a project, they have dozens. They

take care of the hens, hatching eggs and rearing chicks. There is Doreen.

You name them after the ladies here? What do you do everyday question at

I made sure they have got water and let them out. How many eggs do you

get? They lay one payday. I really enjoy it. It keeps you fit and

healthy -- they lay one per day. I am only 23! Very good! We do that

price a year to get rid of the lice and mites -- twice a year. She

decided she would share a shower with us! Freshen up! With

ever-increasing pressures on the NHS and social care, GPs are being urged

to consider social prescribing. Social prescribing is about allowing

our patients, elderly people, to get into some activities they enjoy as a

part of recovery and well-being, rather than just prescribing a pill.

What sorts of activities work? It could be simple activities like

gardening, fishing. Since his wife's death five years ago, this

long-term resident knows only too well how isolation can be bad for

your health and well-being. I am 87. You have not got many friends left.

They have passed away. What were you doing on your own? Watching

television. The warden said one day, why don't you join the hen group?

When I went down, I met quite a few friends and it opened my life out,

really. I feel as though it has given me a focus in life now. Before

there was nothing to look forward to. One man said, are you new? I

said, I have been here three years. I knew nobody. Not until I started

seeing the hens. The hens have been the catalyst for you to integrate

and meet people will stop yes. These two led the campaign to win the

lottery funding to take hen power cross country. Today they are

spreading the word in a local school. We are going to tell you a

little bit about chickens. I have followed them on their road show.

Today they are at a primary school. This is about bridging the

generation gap, getting them out and active and sharing their love of

chickens. The first chicken was discovered in the jungle. Lovely and

silky, isn't it? I think... You know a lot about chickens? My grandad has

got chickens. There are eight projects like this in Gateshead and

some of the pensioners say they not only feel better but they are on

less medication too. Josh runs the project. Why does it work so well?

They are social creatures, they are nice to handle, they are a nice

shared response military. The school kids love it -- shared

responsibility. It gets people out and makes them happy, getting fresh

air, that is all life is about. Thanks to the lottery grant, maybe

hen power will be spreading a little happiness down your way quite soon.

Uplifting that. Chick advance been a wonderful adays to my life. Billy,

you are a big fan of chickens? It's a west Indian thing, the boys in my

family, village and area where I lived, the boys took care of outside

things, the girls did indoor things, ironing and washing and things. The

boys cleaned up the yard. I have a great story about a chicken. Let us

hear it. Now, one of my hens had chickens and this, if you have ever

seen a little chicken, it's a beautiful thing in the world, fluffy

little thing. I took it inside to show my sisters. The chicken, they

tend to pick at your legs. Right. So my youngest sister was afraid of it.

Beautiful chicken. She climbed up on the chair. She didn't quite make it.

She came back down and stepped on the chicken. Very sad. I cried.

Please tell me that is not the end of the antidote? No, that is it.

That is my chicken story. We didn't see that one coming. I have to say.

That is my chicken story. Sing Caribbean Queen, pick us up again!

That is my chicken story. We used to have a dog. He got run over! Right.

OK. We will have to move on. We know what people thought about the

project in that film. We do. We wonder what the hens thought of

them. They are in stitches now. Someone who might be able to tell us

is Lucy Cooke. Lucy is starring in a BBC series along with these adorable

mongooses. They are excited, excited. A reason

mongooses. They are excited, We worked it out.

mongooses. They are excited, autumn. I'm trying to concentrate on

- I'm going is it mongeese. We looked into this.

- I'm going is it mongeese. We mongooses. I would have gone for

mongeeses. Let us get back on track. Not Going Out.

mongeeses. Let us get back on track. have a moon goose? There is is a

relationship between what we talked about before. Because

relationship between what we talked love chickens. Let us get on to Not

Going Out. The seventh series is coming up in the autumn. I'm not

going to say coming up in the autumn. I'm not

There are happier chicken stories. Now, in the last series of Not Going

Out. Lucy and Lee had a little kiss. Albeit in a play. Yes. What is the

latest, what is going on? This is the new series. It's hard to talk

about it, you don't want to give away what happens, do you? No We are

changing the show. It's moving on. The end of the series. Is that vague

enough. That is quite vague. Any more. I have a sex change and become

a woman. No, we want Lee and Lucy to get it together! Well, that could

happen. It could happen. We are moving it on. That could mean we are

moving it on we are getting together or moving it on and going our

separate ways. We talk off air and we say, can we say this or not. You

were filming the Christmas special. You can say that. Is this the last

show? We filmed the Christmas Special for this year, which will be

the end of the series. That could be potentially be the last ever

episode, yes. Many a tear was shed. Did you enjoy - did you enjoy the

whole experience? Process. Yeah, I did. It's been seven years. Ages.

Agent years. I've had offers. I can't say offers, I have had one

offer from a film a long time ago. I can't really imagine doing it, it's

not as physical, movement as singing. You are sitting in one

place. My friend, Tim Vine has left the series, I'm looking for a new

mate. Billy Ocean at the bar, he doesn't ever speak, he only ever

sings. If I had chickens with me, I might be all right. There you go.

For some people who have not seen Not Going Out. Here is a clip when

Lee was trying to posh up a girl in a restaurant. See if you fans it,

Billy. I hope you don't assume the man has to pay for dinner. I'm

hoping you are not one much these women who assumes I can!

LAUGHTER Same again!

APPLAUSE It is very funny. More gags coming

you are back on tour, aren't you? From the 7th September in hit Hit

The Road Mack. Until Christmas Evish. 23rd. How much do you think

the show will change between September and Stoke and Manchester

when you get to the last show? Will it evolve? The jokes tend to stay

the same. You chat to the audience. You don't know what will happen.

Sometimes you get a lunatic in Doncaster who is not there in

Manchester. Sometimes you get one that comes to every show. They are

the really crazy ones. If we look at the moment of your tour of 2010. I

love this joke. Here we go. I hate computers, the terminology that they

use. The little terminology. I said, I can't get into my website. This

bloke said, have you tried dubables cookies? -- disabling cookies. I

said, I once bit the legs off a Gingerbread man! Thank you, One

Show. I don't like the fact you have shown a clip where I'm two stone

heavier. I look like a whippet with mumps. Swelly around the face. No,

you don't! Billy is also on tour. Yeah, touring. Lots of festivals.

Festival period now. I've done a lot of the indoor shows, theatres and

what have you, concert halls and thing. I'm into festivals. I enjoy

the festivals because the people come to have a good time. That is

what I love about festivals. I hope you don't mind. I pushed him into

slightly. Matt wants to ask you something. What is that. Back in the

day, before all of this telly lark started. I was a member of a disco

dance troop called Disco Inferno. 17 years ago, there, that is where I

met my wife. Right. Lovely lady. Your song Love Really Hurts Without

You, became our song. Thank you. Tonight is our tenth wedding

anniversary. Congratulations. Nicola is over there. Because it's the only

way she gets to see me because I'm working. OK. I wonder if, as the

guitar is there, would you please give us a chorus. I'd love to. This

is for Nicola and everybody out there who is celebrating an

anniversary. Chorus, right? # Baby, love really hurts without

you # Love really hurts without you

# And it's breaking my heart # But what can I do

# Baby, love really hurts without you

# Love really hurts through and through

# And it's breaking my heart # But what can I do... #

Happy anniversary. APPLAUSE

Happy anniversary to everybody out there. Happy anniversary, Nicola.

Very good. It was worth asking. There you are. Thank you, Billy.

Earlier we saw gore Gigha walked off with the first prize in the 13-17

category in our art competition. It's time for 18 and over category.

Before Andrew crowns the winner here is Phil with your finalists

round-up. First up in the 18 and over category is an entry from

Surrey. Th judges choose Friend's Wife. I paint in layers, work with

soft layers on top of each other and add the detail in slowly to create a

soft complexion. To have my work in the Royal Academy is an honour. I

can't believe it again. It really means a lot. It makes me happy that

people think it's valuable enough to be in there. My final piece is a

portrait of my friend's great grandma, he is 100 years old. He has

huge amount of energy and happiness about her. Especially in this

photograph I have been given. She can touch her toes so deserves a

portrait. Whoever wins deserves it, they are great painters and great

artists. The judges loved Farmhouse Dominican Republic by Andrew

Larsson, they love the sense of light he captured and they really

felt the Primary school heat. Worker Andrew from Kent is our next artist.

I've never entered a competition before. I toyed with the idea a few

times, I never got the courage to go and do it. The main aim for me was

to have a work of art in the Royal Academy and to get that, in itself,

is like a dream come true. Trying to keep a level head. Not think about

the competition too much. Just paint what I want to paint. Some of the

photos I'm using for the composition is a place in Jamaica. I think,

buildings have character. They have emotion. A bit like a face. And,

they all have a story to tell, like people. It's just a little bit

different. Maybe a little bit more difficult. I do like to challenge

myself. The judges choose this portrait by Kurt Buckley it really

captured the character and also he they loved the stubble. The last

entry to get through comes from Southampton student Kurt. It means a

lot to win because it's a massive platform. A lot of people will see

the work. The first thing I do when I make a piece of art, I think about

what I want to draw. I go out and look for some people much I walk

around, scanning everyone thinking, yeah, no. When I find something I

want. I will approach them and go and ask for their photo. This chap

had powerful Piercing eyes, they screamed expression and emotion to

me. The competitive streak I have within me is quite high. I don't

really like to lose. I think everyone has an equal chance. They

are all worthy winners. There is only room for one. There we saw two

portraits in this character. You had your portrait done by David Hockney?

It was devastatingly accurate. Really, really unfair at the same

time. OK. It's a weird experience. He keeps stairing at you intensely,

it is called eyeballing. You feel as if you had your skin stripped off.

Not a comfortable thing to happen. It's really interesting. I couldn't

afford it. Mates rates, $165,000. You are joking? That was the cheap

version. Andrew! Owned by somebody in New York now. You have seen the

old Erekat grill for the first time today? Yes. What did you make of the

standard there? Again, the standard was so high. I was really bowled

over. Really impressed. Two incredible portraits. We will see

them now. Two incredible portraits and one landscape piece. I

them now. Two incredible portraits them all for different reasons.

them now. Two incredible portraits was quite, again, hard to make a Do

you decision. Have a favourite in mind? Yes. I think so. Yes. OK. Let

us look, shall we. If we look at the finished art from our three 18 and

over finalists. This is Charlotte Bradley from Surrey and her portrait

of her friend's great grandmother, Hilda. Look at that. We loved

of her friend's great grandmother, soft expression you did last time.

What was it that you loved and the judges loved? The texture of the

skin. A lot of people draw from photographs. It feels like you are

looking at the person. She has a very distinct impression on her

looking at the person. She has a face. Lovely texture to her skin.

Nearly 100 years old. Beautiful woman. A real sense of personality

blazing out of. It that is really, really hard to achieve. Fantastic

piece of work. A really hard to achieve. Fantastic

get. Never seen that expression in a picture. Nearly mid sentence, isn't

she? About to speak to us. Our next artist is Andrew Larsen from Kent.

Our only landscape artist in the final. There it is. Nick, what did

you make of this one? I loved this. It drew me in.

you make of this one? I loved this. so much to look at. As we thought

with the other one you did, the Dominican Republic, it feels warm.

You can... All the different elements of light. I loved. It I

loved all the texture, the wooden poles and the pavement. There is so

much to look at. Which I like. I like looking at a painting for a

long And finding time. Different elements. Let us look at the last

one of the three. Kurt Buckley from Southampton. Kurt has this wonderful

pencil portrait of a singer called King Charles. Again, I mean, you

were saying, Andrew, how do you separate them? You don't. He

deserves his name, King Charles. He looks a bit like me, I think! Very

similar. Sadly not. A beautiful intricate piece of work. A lot of

personality coming out of that. Three wonderful works. A treat for

us to watch. We spent a lot of time in front of these pictures looking

at them, talking about them at great length. You go away and come back

again. Maybe your opinion has changed now. There can only be one

winner. One winner. The winner is Charlotte, this wonderful painting

here. Thank you so much for your time. We

will see you next year. You can see all of the artists work and much

more at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London until the 9th

of August. Lucy Cooke is here and soon we will be finding out how she

can talk to the animals. Before that, here is George on how bees

communicate with the flowers they feed on. What do they say? I don't

know, maybe hello, petal! Nice! We have known for some time flowers

advertise to bees right appealing to their sense of sight and smell. But

scientists at Bristol University have discovered that bees have an

additional sense. They can detect a rather surprising invisible queue

macro. For the first time, they have discovered bees can sense an

electric field. This professor has been leading the study. The first

sign of it was when we saw footage of bees approaching flowers and we

noticed the pollen was leaving the flour to jump on the beat. Then we

understood that perhaps there was an electrostatic force at play --

leaving the flower to jump onto the B. They created a flight arena for a

colony of bees with a series of identical artificial flowers. Bees

like sugar so they set up half the feeding stations with a sugary

solution and half with a bitter one. Neither solution smells of anything

and there is nothing visual to attract them. We would be able to

test whether they can discriminate between these situations. As he

thought, the bees fed randomly as there was no information to guide

them to be sugar. But when a small electric field was added to the

sugary liquid there was a marked change. They could spot the

difference between them, choosing the sugar eight times out of ten. A

little bit of voltage was sufficient to show them the way to the sugar.

When we removed the electricity, none of the bees could do it any

more. That shows they are able to sense the electric field and

associate it with sugar. That is quite incredible. But then they went

on to discover something even more extraordinary. Taking the experiment

out of the lab and into the fields, they realised the bees and flowers

are actively communicating with each other during pollination. With their

fast moving wings, they become positively charged as they fly

through the air. Flowers are negatively charged as they are

grounded to the earth which is full of electrons. Both the flowers and

the bees have an electric field and the two start to interact. He has

connected an electrode to a flower to show this to measure current flow

which we can here as a. As the current changes, so does the tone.

We have a fake be that we can charge up so it acts like a real be. That

is the flower on its own. If I take this artificial be and rub it on my

trousers, that will create a charge. Amazing! Very clear. Just as we are

testing, a real bumblebee comes along. What is happening here? It

reaches the flower and it deposited charges. The flower has been visited

and it will be different. We are hearing the interaction between the

B and the flower's electric field. When the bumblebee lands on the

flower, it alters the charge for up to two minutes. He believes they

might be using the change to their advantage. If the bee is able to

change the potential, it might be able to tell the difference between

a flower that has been visited recently. It makes evolutionary

sense for the bee to not visit a flower that has been recently

visited. It is a win-win situation that benefits the bee Andy Flower,

they are both using now electric fields to their advantage. We can

see the invisible forces at work, flowers advertising themselves like

electrical billboards. Unbelievable. Flowers talking to

bees. How about zoologists talking to hippos? I am about to say hello

to the hippos. Will they get the message? They are hiding under

water. That was an, I am here, wasn't it?

His head is popping up everywhere. That is from a new programme on BBC

One tonight right after us, Talk to the Animals. It looks incredibly

intriguing. Talk us through the premise of this. One of the most

amazing experiences of my life. The really extraordinary thing about

hippos is that they are the only animal we know of that can

communicate above and below water at the same time. They have amphibious

communication. They make a fantastic evil Father Christmas noise and they

do that with their mouths and here it with their ears above the water

but obviously sound bounces off the water. Under the water, the sound

transmits through their throat in fatty deposits. They are

incredible. The evil Father Christmas noise, does it mean they

are unhappy? They have very eccentric sounds. They are rather

run the full -- rather wonderful. You look at

run the full -- rather wonderful. talk to each other. How varied would

you say the Kimi negation systems are? You have just seen with the

bees, animals use different ways of communicating. They use light,

gestures, all sorts of things. Earlier we had a look at the clip. A

little chat with some noisy mongooses. Why are they so vocal?

They live in family packs and need to keep in contact with each other

because they are always scoring around looking. Then to eat. They

keep in touch by making contact calls. What is so fascinating is

that they all sound the same to us, just a cacophony of squeaks, but the

squeaks just under a second long actually have a whole sentence of

information in there. They are giving away their identity and what

they are doing. They say, I am Lucy, I am digging. I am Lee, I am

foraging. I am Alex, I am resting. I am resting! That is quite apt! I

told you about this piece of information in the meeting earlier

and they looked at me as if I had two heads. Mongooses are sociable

creatures. Very gossipy. two heads. Mongooses are sociable

observed chimps in the series. How easy is it to decipher what chimps

are easy is it to decipher what chimps

their communication is a lot like ours. It was an

their communication is a lot like doing that. We went into the forest

in Uganda and saw wild chimps. One of the most fascinating things is

that these days we have all seen the images of Diane Fossey and David

Attenborough rolling around with apes and communicating with them,

but the new research is to observe and you do not interact at all. When

I was told that, all my life I had wanted to say hello and interact

with our closest relatives and the producers said, you mustn't, you are

not allowed. I was a bit disappointed. It was incredible

nevertheless. You had to pretend to be interested in a leaf. It was all

very profound. One animal you are very good at Munich catering with is

a sloth. Could you do it for us -- app very good at communicating

with. This is my best nation of a female sloth in heat. Very quickly,

this is Melanie. She says, this is me, I Ami Goth now. -- I am a Goth

now. She was an 80s' punk and this is her now. Before and after from

Patricia. Lovely stuff. Lucy, thank you for coming in and doing your

sloth. Thank you, Lee. Thanks to Andrew and Nick for being fantastic

judges. We will be back tomorrow with Rudolph Walker and Diane

Parish, Eastenders' Patrick and Denise. We leave you with Billy

Ocean singing his Grammy award-winning hit Caribbean Queen.

See you tomorrow. # She dashed by me

# And our hearts beat as 1 # No more love on the run

# I lose my cool when she steps in the room

# And I get so excited just from her perfume

# Electric eyes that you cannot ignore

# Passion burns you like never before

# I was in search of a good time # Love was the furthest, furthest

from my mind, yeah # Caribbean Queen

# Now we share in the same dream # And our hearts, they beat as 1
