16/11/2015 The One Show

Hello and welcome to the One Show, I am pleased to say that after cycling

nearly 500 miles and raising almost 3.5 million for Children In Need,

the baker boy is back! 3.5 million for Children In Need,

is parked up, it won't be moving for the G8, the fans have turned up to

see Team Rickshaw! Having a well deserved rest. Goodness me. How have

the last 2 days been with people waving at you and throwing fivers at

you? I have had 10 people recognise me over the last 2 days! I think

it's just because of the hair. My haircut stands out. I just have said

hi to people, people know me. I'm delighted that you are still happy!

Who slept the most? What time you get up? I think 11! You all did

phenomenally well, it's lovely to see you back here, fit and healthy

and still smiling. During the last 8 days, Matt and Team Rickshaw used

their strength and determination to raise of the nominal amount of

money. Tonight 's guest is a real champion who was also no stranger to

hard work. Here he is, champion who was also no stranger to

at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

The final dive forward Tom Daley for gold at the Commonwealth Games.

Retaining his Commonwealth Games title, he won four years ago in

Delhi! Here he is again. Please welcome Tom Daley! Come on

in. We are just on this theme of Team Rickshaw, you know what it's

all about, at a young age, putting the hours in and getting the

results. They've done incredibly well to raise money for such a great

cause, I know only too well how much effort it takes, get up in the

morning, do all the training you need to get a great end result and

that's what they have done. You are the perfect guest of them tonight!

Congratulations on your engagement. We have a brilliant picture of you

and Lance and Donald Sutherland the actor! I couldn't believe it, we

were having a fight at a premiere, it wasn't until we looked

afterwards, its president snow in the background! Coming up, we are

looking Team Rickshaw front row seats for a special performance from

Jess Glynne. Amazing night on Friday. It was! What was the

highlight? I guess the performance but also my highlight was going to

the Queen Vic. It's so so real, a lot smaller than I thought but it

was so special going in there, meeting our fee. I think I actually

saw her passing R2-D2 in the corridor as well.

saw her passing R2-D2 in the that bit! You were too focused on

the fact you were about to sing as you will do later, she will be

singing Take Me you will do later, she will be

Children In Need single. you will do later, she will be

prosecuting parents who take their children out of school to go on

holiday but this was thrown into doubt recently 1 of

holiday but this was thrown into persuaded magistrates to overturn

his fine. persuaded magistrates to overturn

hauled in front of the courts, she thought there was a good chance of

getting off. Tom went with her. Last November, Jackie and her 9

-year-old daughter took a 3-week trip backpacking through

-year-old daughter took a 3-week Europe. But now it's memorable for

all the wrong reasons because Jackie has been prosecuted over the term

Tom Holliday and she could be looking at a possible 3 months in

prison. Because while looking at a possible 3 months in

travelling with her mum, she should have been in class. You must be

Jackie. Lovely to meet you. Come this way. Why did you take Hazel out

of school was Mike I had 3 weeks of annual leave, I could either spend

at home or use it for a backpacking trip. You thought it was education

but just in a different format? She had a lot more varied experiences in

those weeks than she would have done in school, I expected a fine because

that's what it said in the school policy. While Jackie e-mailed the

school about the trip, they never got the message as their IT system

treated it as spam. Once they realised Hazel was missing school

for a holiday, the local authority decided to prosecute Jackie as she

had been fined for doing the same thing previously. Is that when you

realise the severity? Yes, we were dumbfounded. Worst case scenario is

?2500 fine and all 3 months imprisonment. If you could turn the

clock back, would you still do it? We've had a bonding experience very

few mothers and daughters managed to have. She grew up in those 3 weeks,

it changed her, we will remember it for the rest of our lives, I would

never regret that. The number of parents fined for taking their kids

out of school for holidays shot up by a quarter in the last school year

to well over 50,000. Last month John decided to fight a ?120 fine in

court, imposed taking his daughter to Florida. What's more, he won. So

he has driven from his home on the Olive White to advise Jackie on her

court case. -- on the Isle of Wight. A lot of people might argue, for

?60, I do not better off paying that? Why did you buy the? Possibly

because I'm really stubborn and if I haven't done anything wrong, I won't

pay. I will side what best for my kids. But you are affecting their

education. If they were struggling at school I may have a different

opinion in terms of holidays. My daughter, she was level 3 in

everything, so she is in the top 2% of kids in her country for her

education despite the fact that her dad has taken her on holiday

sometimes twice a year since she started school. Can you give me a

brief outline of the fundamentals of the defence? What the law says is it

is an offence if they don't attend school, and unauthorised school to a

breach of the legislation, they have to look at the wider attendance and

they said my daughter 's attendance is at worst 90%, they cannot find

that as a breach of the legislation and they have no case to answer.

John's 3 is not yet set in stone. His local council is appealing to

the High Court as they think the magistrate has got it wrong. No

question about it, I will fight it, I would prefer not to be involved in

this fight but I will not walk away from it, I will spend whatever is

necessary to make sure the law is clarified. Do you feel more

confident now? I feel inspired! The big day has arrived and Jackie and

her son are sitting off the court stopped even though he didn't go on

court, as Hazel's dead is also in court, facing the same charge. --

Hazel's dead. I'm worried, it's not just me riding on this, thousands

are following the case. The verdict is in and Jackie and Macs have both

been found guilty. They received fines. The local media are there in

the background, this case has caused a stir and unfortunately it wasn't

good news for her. How do you feel about the outcome? Very, very

disappointed, I don't think justice was served, it's not the public

interest to go persecuting good parents. For their part,

Herefordshire Council told us that while they have no wish sobbing

children experiencing new challenges and cultures, they mustn't interfere

with their education. -- stopping children. Tom, as a junior world

champion, it's not a holiday, you taking time off, you know what it's

like to take time off, would you say your education suffered? I don't

think it suffered from sport, whenever we went away, we had to do

Skype calls with teachers, take work away with us, but sport teaches you

so many different life lessons, whether it's time management,

discipline, setting goals, I don't think I would have been as good in

school unless I had support to teach me those skills. Can I ask you what

grades you got? In GCSE, I got 5 A stars. I am just competitive, in

anything that I do, I try and win! It's been a record year for talking

in a record year for Children In Need, you play your part because you

are part of the writing book of this children's book, called The Curious

Tale of Fi Rex, it has been written by all these people. Rod Stewart,

Andy Murray, U, Sir Paul McCartney, how did this come about? It's such a

sweet little book, if any of you get the chance, it would be amazing if

you could buy it and help Children In Need, I like to do anything I can

in my position, to help anyone. There are many different causes,

Children In Need is 1 of them but I do stuff for the French humour

charity, because my dad suffered from a brain tumour -- the brain

tumour charity. I have a history of bullying, I wanted to do things to

help people, as soon as this opportunity came up, I wanted to do

what I can. You had no idea who had written what before you? No, you

just had to kick it up as they went along! You had 1 line of the

previous person's text... You kind of have an outline of what was going

on but you could take it in whatever direction you want it, it was fun.

The drawings are pretty fun, too. It's a lovely book. You mention the

anti- bullying campaign which you are doing with the cartoon network,

what is happening? We are launching the CN Buddy network, I suffered

from bullying when I was younger, going through school, it was a tough

time the me and you feel alone and like to contact anyone, now I have

come out the other side of it, I want to help other people in the

same situation and knowing it's not OK, you are not the only person

being bullied, to be able to find a buddy, be able to trust and tell

them, they can help you. The cartoon network have come up with fantastic

animation to help get the message across. Don't suffer in silence,

tell a friend of what's going on. Together we can stop bullying.

It's a very interesting take, it's not just for those

for bullies, if you are being bullied, the Observer, to help

for bullies, if you are being stand up against bullies, especially

for bullies, if you are being evolved massively, it's not just

for bullies, if you are being thinking that it's not going to

harm, sending this thinking that it's not going to

this photo, but actually, it really does affect people and thinking

about what you do before you post anything. You can find out anything

you need to know about the campaign on the cartoon network's website

will stop as Team Rickshaw know all too well, we have had a week of wild

weather. Marty is in Cumbria to explain where all this rain comes

from. In November 2009, at the bail in the

from. In November 2009, at the bail books. Days of endless rain had

catastrophic consequences, rivers burst their banks, homes and

businesses were flooded, entire villages cut off. It was the single

greatest downpour in British history. In fact, it rained so much

on the 19th of November that 31.6 centimetres of rain fell in 24

hours. But it didn't stop there, over a 4-day period, 49.5

centimetres fell. Which is almost the entire annual rainfall of

somewhere like London. It's a 1 in 1000 year event. There was so much

rain that they don't want and Koke rivers burst their banks. This local

farmer remembers it well. It was a tremendous amount of water, Keswick

and Cockermouth were damaged, all the bridges were ruptured. It was a

bit of a sorry state. So what caused such devastation? There are several

factors that led to this extreme weather. 1st, Cumbria is England's

most north-westerly County, after Ireland, the 1st landfall for

weather systems from the Atlantic. And 2nd, all of these mountains mean

that the warm, moist air coming off the Atlantic has to go up where it

cools, condenses, turned into cloud comes as rain or snow.

The geography means that there are no strangers to the rain around

here. But what made the deluge so extreme this time was something that

meteorologists call and atmospheric river. Atmospheric rivers are

created when to weather systems, high-pressure system and a pressure

system come together to create a channel that draws warm and moist

air up between them. Let me show you with this contraption. Imagine this

is a low pressure system over Iceland and is rotating

anticlockwise. This is a high-pressure system over Europe

rotating in a clockwise direction. Because they are rotating in

opposite directions they draw in packets of warm and moist air up

between them. Imagine that this is the warm air. If I get my weather

systems spinning, and now I drop this warm and moist air and it fires

it out. Each wheel rotates in the opposite direction drawing up the

ping-pong ball through the channel. Just as the high and low pressure

systems forced the atmospheric river straight into the Cambrian Mountains

where it fell as rain. It was the combination of this atmospheric

river and the mountainous geography the lead Cumbria to experience such

a dramatic downpour. And it was made much worse by the fact that this

severe weather system hung around for days and days. The local

residents will never forget the wettest day in British history.

And John is here. Last time you were on a couple of weeks ago you told us

about this BBC weather watch. Just remind us of what this new

initiative is. Well it is coming into its own this week. It is so

easy to get online and off you go. You just register and take

observations from where you live. If you look out of the money -- if you

look out of the window and it is sunny, that is what you register.

You could also take a temperature reading and the icing on the cake is

the photographs. And we have had some great photographs coming in

because the weather has been so horrendous. But that is helpful for

us as the forecasters, it is the evidence on the ground which makes

the difference to people's lives. The weather is all about impact. And

we have seen some of that coming in through the photographs. These from

the last 24 hours? Just in the past 24 hours. This from Cumbria, dutiful

but also dangerous. We can see the extent of the flooding there. And

then in Cumbria again, hazardous driving for this particular car.

Trevor brought in a photograph from Cockermouth which had such

horrendous flooding in 2009. Not so bad this time around. But more rain

in the forecast. If we think back to last week we had storm Abigail, the

first named storm from the Met Office. This was the impact it had

on the coastline. This is from Ayrshire. And the lovely photograph

from Argyll and Bute. Not many trees across the north and West of

Scotland but we do expect another storm. The second named storm.

Barney. That will hit parts of England and Wales tomorrow evening.

Further south a lot more trees around and with gusts of up to 70

miles an hour potentially we do expect some significant impact. And

that impact is all-important. And I bet you mean trees coming down?

Potentially trees coming down with those kind of gusts. And the ground

saturated. Possibly power lines down and travel disruption. At the end of

the week it does turn colder so possibly some snow. Get those

pictures in. Get the snow boots on if you're going out with the

camera! In a moment we find out just how much Team Rickshaw have raised.

And they hit, the total has gone up just a bit more. But before we find

out the new total let's remind ourselves of that 477 mile journey

from lands end to the East End. Let's say goodbye to lands end. And

let's go! What was that about the rickshaw

challenged this year that made it the most successful yet? It was not

the weather. Lands end was desolate and damp. How are your legs?

Aching! I did it! Well done! The scenery helped. The West Country

is the UK at its best but it was not that. I saw six young people who had

hardly met before but their personal challenges behind them to achieve

something they will remember all their lives.

My family have helped me except my disability. I want to change my

life. I'm sure that you brighten their everyday.

Hello! Well done! Did you think your granddaughter would be such a big

part of Team Rickshaw? Yes! This is a bit tricky. The things are

slipping. George's father died in a cycling road accident. Just being

here was brave. It seems to me you have an enormous amount of inner

strength and when you get on the rickshaw, you can focus. You focus

on why you're doing it and look back at what you have done. You know your

dad would be proud. This year 's riders displayed an

admirable amount of teamwork. Some were stronger than others but all

pulled together when the emotional road was at its hardest. What do you

make of the rest of Team Rickshaw? I love them, it is like a family.

Everyone has been talking openly about why we are here. You have this

common thread of being incredibly determined. Are we ready!

Some started low in confidence but grew in front of our eyes. None more

so than George G. I love being part of this. It is great. All my

teachers and friends are so proud of me. You have proved yourself you can

do stuff. I can. In life. I know that.

So why has this year been such a spectacular success? It has to be

because so many of you came out to encourage them. To give your support

and your money as never before. Because you let these six young

champions into your hearts. Thank you. All of you.

To donate ?5 text team. If you feel more generous gift ?10. Text team

again. All of your donation will go to Children in Need. You must be

aged 16 or over and do ask permission from the bill payer

before you call. For terms and conditions go to the website.

There was a lovely moment when Aaron predict that in Bristol that the

total would be ?50,000. It was a lot more than that come Friday.

It was a fantastic moment. So on Friday, Children in Need night, we

revealed the incredible total of 3,468,000 ?378. Remarkable. But

since then the total has gone up even further. It now stands at a

remarkable ?3,745,000! Unbelievable. Almost at ?4 million.

It is unbelievable but so uplifting to hear that ?277,000 came in over

the weekend despite the very sad news in Paris. We have to say a

heartfelt thank you to everyone who has donated. We will leave those

numbers up for a bit longer and you can add a bit more to the total if

you wish. Very soon we will have Jeff singing for us. And when she

found out how big a fan Elliott is she agreed to help surprised a lot

of them! She even managed to Robin Tom as well. And here they all are

taking part in a little video shoot ahead of the programme tonight.

Elliott is about to get the surprise of his life!

Are you ready? Three, two, one! of his life!

reaction you can take a look at the Facebook

reaction you can take a look at the show. And Take Me Home, Jess you are

about to sing this. Why did you choose this one in particular for

Children in Need? They approached me about it and said that the meaning

behind the song touched them and it would be perfect for the charity.

For me that is just amazing, it is so personal for me. It is about

having someone when you are in need. It is very poignant. That is all we

have got time for tonight. Thank you so much to Tom and are amazing Team

Rickshaw. Join us tomorrow when Alan Carr will be on the sofa. Playing a

fact now with the official Children Carr will be on the sofa. Playing a

in Need single, Take Me Home, it is Jess Glynne!
