Hello, friends, and thank you for tuning into the Friday One Show | :00:18. | :00:23. | |
with Alex Jones and Chris Evans. Tonight, the comedy metre is in | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
danger of overload. Tonight, to start, someone who helped to create | :00:28. | :00:32. | |
and starring one of the most popular sketch shows ever. Let's | :00:32. | :00:40. | |
remind ourselves of some of its catchphrases. Suit you, sir. | :00:40. | :00:48. | |
Scorchio. This season, I will be mostly wearing yoghurt. I was very, | :00:48. | :00:58. | |
:00:58. | :01:05. | ||
very drunk. Brilliant! It is Paul Whitehouse! Hello. How are you? I | :01:05. | :01:15. | |
:01:15. | :01:15. | ||
have always wanted to give you a nickname. Everybody calls you Chris. | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
Do the catchphrases still chase you down the street? Are some older | :01:19. | :01:25. | |
women. I can safely say there are no old woman has ever shouted out | :01:25. | :01:33. | |
one of my catchphrases. Builders, they say suit you, mainly. Do you | :01:33. | :01:42. | |
ever hated? Know. James Corden was on Desert Island Discs and he said | :01:42. | :01:45. | |
that anyone who pretends they do not like it is a liar. Not that | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
I've always live my life by what James Corden says. Sometimes it is | :01:50. | :01:56. | |
a pain, but most people are nice usually. It is a compliment. What | :01:56. | :02:02. | |
is better than one comedy legend? Two. He has put away his punk | :02:02. | :02:12. | |
:02:12. | :02:18. | ||
hairstyle and given away his bottom, Hello. This is going to be a riot, | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
isn't it? It already is. Stay tuned. Have you really got a comedy metre? | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
We had it in rehearsal but we thought it was rubbish. You are | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
presenting a show for the enemy about the countryside. Is it the | :02:37. | :02:42. | |
enemy? They are the ones that will give me a job. Should Matt Baker be | :02:42. | :02:47. | |
worried? If he is not worried, he looks very worried when he is doing | :02:47. | :02:56. | |
this show. Yes, I hope so. You are competition. Yes, right. Could use | :02:56. | :03:01. | |
cycle the length of the country with somebody in the back? I don't | :03:01. | :03:06. | |
think so. Stay tuned. Also coming up, what would happen if you put | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
Tony Blackburn and David Hamilton together with the Great Britain | :03:10. | :03:16. | |
rhythmic gymnastics team? I have always wondered that. We will find | :03:16. | :03:22. | |
out live on the show later. Plus, we will be speaking to Malcolm | :03:22. | :03:26. | |
Jarvis, who hit the headlines this week when he risked his life | :03:26. | :03:33. | |
crawling across a frozen pond to save his dog. In his pants. That is | :03:33. | :03:38. | |
the weird bit about that story. We will get to the bottom of it before | :03:38. | :03:44. | |
8pm. For the past nine decades, royal brides, including the Queen, | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
Princess Diana and the Duchess of Cambridge have had wedding rings | :03:48. | :03:57. | |
crafted from Welsh gold. Sadly, most of the UK's Gold mines have | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
now closed, but in Scotland one man has found a way to carry on the | :04:01. | :04:06. | |
tradition, as Alison Craig reports. In the Wild West, it was the stuff | :04:06. | :04:12. | |
of dreams, hopes and a fervent fever. This is not the Wild West. | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
This is the Scottish Highlands. And I have heard rumours of treasure in | :04:16. | :04:23. | |
these parts. In fact, I hear there is a Scottish gold rush. But | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
Scotland has a rich tradition when it comes to gold mining. In the | :04:28. | :04:33. | |
1860s, the precious metal was discovered, resulting in a mini | :04:33. | :04:38. | |
gold rush. This was short lived. And in the late 1860s, it looked | :04:38. | :04:43. | |
like the time of Scottish gold was over. But 150 years later, things | :04:43. | :04:50. | |
could be changing. Gold mining is due to start here next year. The | :04:50. | :04:54. | |
man in charge is Chris. Are we standing literally with gold within | :04:54. | :05:01. | |
our grasp? Indeed. If you look above your head, you can see that | :05:01. | :05:05. | |
sulphite memorisation, which is the bits of rock that contain the gold. | :05:05. | :05:09. | |
Gold particles are very small, so you will not see them, but you are | :05:09. | :05:16. | |
standing underneath gold. How much do you expect to get out? We have a | :05:16. | :05:23. | |
resource of 165,000 ounces, worth about �165 million at current | :05:23. | :05:28. | |
prices. Can you show us where it is? You can see the difference in | :05:28. | :05:34. | |
contrast. The white, with the sulphite material through it. | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
is what you're looking for. This dark part is where most of the gold | :05:41. | :05:45. | |
is concentrated. That is not the gold, but it does look like it. | :05:45. | :05:51. | |
does, it sparkles and shines. That is why it is known as fool's gold. | :05:51. | :05:56. | |
On the other side of the mountain, I found John, a man prepared to | :05:56. | :06:02. | |
spend hours in freezing streams hunting for tiny flecks of precious | :06:02. | :06:09. | |
metal. The technique that I use is to flog it out and swirl in a | :06:09. | :06:15. | |
circular motion, and slowly Tippett in a sideways action. And then I | :06:15. | :06:24. | |
wash. And emerging at the bottom... The gold, being 19 times heavier, | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
it should fall, if it is there, into the bottom. I think I caught | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
gold fever. I was going out for 15 hours a day. Bit by bit, I managed | :06:36. | :06:44. | |
to collect enough to make arena. Getting engaged is fantastic. But | :06:44. | :06:47. | |
to know all the hard work and effort that has gone into actually | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
making the ring, that makes it all the more special. Anybody can pan | :06:53. | :06:58. | |
for gold on a small scale with the landowner's permission. You can do | :06:58. | :07:06. | |
it with one hand. There is loads. Is that gold? It could be you. | :07:06. | :07:13. | |
really does stand out. That is a Nugget, really. That is probably | :07:13. | :07:18. | |
one of the best I have ever found. Really? | :07:18. | :07:22. | |
That is what independence is all about. They know they have loads of | :07:23. | :07:28. | |
gold. The new series of the Fast Show is back. Six episodes before | :07:29. | :07:34. | |
Christmas, and it came back yesterday. What prompted you to | :07:35. | :07:44. | |
:07:45. | :07:47. | ||
bring them back? Was it money? is beneath me. Says the man from | :07:47. | :07:56. | |
ITV on my left. U2 just carry on! Where did you spend the first four | :07:56. | :08:06. | |
years of your life. You have already ridiculed my accent. We | :08:06. | :08:12. | |
will stop that, shall we? We will get back to the question before he | :08:12. | :08:18. | |
tried to hijack my section. Let's ask a different question. We did it | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
for nothing, Chris. We were approached, and when we stopped | :08:23. | :08:31. | |
doing the Fast Show 10 or 15 years ago... Which I cannot believe! | :08:31. | :08:35. | |
is a long time. We got bored with the endless repetition. That was | :08:35. | :08:40. | |
not like we were about to kill each other, but we would have her teach | :08:40. | :08:44. | |
other seriously. We thought a spell apart would be beneficial. -- we | :08:44. | :08:48. | |
would have hurt each other. We all had things that we wanted to do, so | :08:48. | :08:52. | |
it was good at the time to part. We remembered the show very fondly, | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
were very proud of it. When we were asked, after a period of time had | :08:57. | :09:01. | |
elapsed, we thought we would give it a go. Also, I think this | :09:01. | :09:09. | |
internet thing is going to catch on. Do you? I have a feeling it might | :09:09. | :09:14. | |
just work. You say you were asked to bring it back, but who did they | :09:14. | :09:21. | |
go to first? They went to him and he said, wrong number. Somebody | :09:21. | :09:28. | |
must have rallied the troops. Was it you? Charlie and I were approach | :09:28. | :09:32. | |
to jointly. He likes to think he has the power behind the throne! We | :09:32. | :09:36. | |
got in touch with everyone and they were very keen, even John Thompson. | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
Caroline, we have not done anything with her for years. You did not | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
think Carol Laing would want to do it. We did not even talked to her. | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
-- Caroline. We had not spoken to her for a long while. She did not | :09:53. | :10:00. | |
do the last series. We thought she would not be interested. She is a | :10:00. | :10:06. | |
big fish up there in that place called Manchester. But John bumped | :10:06. | :10:09. | |
into her and said we were thinking about doing the Fast Show and she | :10:09. | :10:14. | |
said she would love to do it. We said, fantastic. It is online. | :10:14. | :10:21. | |
Shall we watch it on TV? Apparently, if you give Richard Branson �10 | :10:21. | :10:31. | |
:10:31. | :10:34. | ||
million, or maybe 11, he will send you into space. Brilliant! The Fast | :10:34. | :10:40. | |
Show is known for its catchphrases. Have you got any new ones? No, we | :10:40. | :10:44. | |
decided we were bringing back the Fast Show, so that is what we did. | :10:44. | :10:49. | |
It is the old characters and catchphrases. But we have updated | :10:49. | :10:58. | |
the references. We mention the Internet. Twitter. Telephones. | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
you did a bit of Downton Abbey. would know about that, being an ITV | :11:03. | :11:12. | |
man. He has something on BBC, as well. Yes, I am I pay my dues in | :11:12. | :11:22. | |
:11:22. | :11:24. | ||
non-paying comedy. Enough of you. Brilliant! We asked some viewers | :11:24. | :11:31. | |
for their favourite catchphrases. Selling cars is like making love to | :11:31. | :11:41. | |
:11:41. | :11:44. | ||
a beautiful woman. I was very, very drunk. Nice! You Ain't seen me. | :11:44. | :11:51. | |
Suit you, sir. They are too good at that, those guys. They are a worry. | :11:51. | :11:59. | |
I have alerted the authorities. new series can be viewed online. | :11:59. | :12:03. | |
Another Fast Show character was Competitive Dad, always trying to | :12:03. | :12:07. | |
beat his kids at games. We have a film about a dad who is not | :12:07. | :12:17. | |
:12:17. | :12:18. | ||
competitive with his little one. He This is the sort of action in the | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
four wheel drive adrenaline junkie would love. -- any four-wheel-drive | :12:23. | :12:30. | |
adrenaline junkie. Go forward until you feel the pivot point. For Nigel | :12:30. | :12:34. | |
Holland, this is one of 50 challengers on a list he is | :12:34. | :12:38. | |
determined to complete before his 50th birthday. Why? To prove that | :12:38. | :12:43. | |
anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Do I need to hold | :12:43. | :12:52. | |
on? Yes. I think so. His activity list comprises of everything from | :12:52. | :12:57. | |
baking bread regularly, scuba- diving, to completing a 1000 piece | :12:57. | :13:03. | |
jigsaw. These challenges take every ounce of energy for him because he | :13:03. | :13:07. | |
has a disease called Siem tea, a hereditary condition affecting the | :13:07. | :13:10. | |
nervous system, which means the muscles in his arms and legs are | :13:10. | :13:15. | |
wasting away. His youngest daughter, Eleanor, also has the condition. | :13:15. | :13:20. | |
What is the main challenge of this challenge, driving? It is a | :13:20. | :13:26. | |
challenge for me to grip the wheel and control the car. What drives | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
you to do this? Why go through the list? Primarily, it is to show my | :13:32. | :13:36. | |
daughter that anything is possible. Also doing it just to inspire | :13:36. | :13:44. | |
others. And other people with disabilities. Nigel's wife, Lisa, a | :13:44. | :13:47. | |
and his son, Matthew, are waiting up ahead. I would be interested to | :13:47. | :13:54. | |
find out what they make of this? Is there anything you are worried | :13:54. | :13:59. | |
about your husband doing? I am slightly worried about the bungee | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
jump. How confident are you that Nigel is going to achieve | :14:03. | :14:09. | |
everything on his list by his birthday? Is your dad going to do | :14:09. | :14:19. | |
:14:19. | :14:19. | ||
it? Yes. I am having a look at the list. What is next? Skydiving? What | :14:19. | :14:29. | |
on earth... Why has this made your list? It is a bit of a cliche, but | :14:29. | :14:39. | |
:14:39. | :14:42. | ||
you are as free as a bird. I am out Is it weird to see your husband | :14:42. | :14:47. | |
flying about? Yes. It isn't something that you see every day of | :14:47. | :14:56. | |
So far, Nigel has negotiated rough terrain and flown through the air. | :14:56. | :15:00. | |
I'm guessing that the last challenge today is water related. | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
It is more than ticking things off a list? Yes, it is to show people | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
that anything is possible. To show my daughter anything is possible. | :15:09. | :15:13. | |
It is something I've always fancied doing. What does this mean to your | :15:13. | :15:16. | |
family, that you are doing these challenges and pushing yourself in | :15:16. | :15:23. | |
this way? I want them to be proud of me. But I want to help my | :15:23. | :15:27. | |
daughter and held her realise that there is a whole world ahead of her | :15:27. | :15:32. | |
and she can do anything she wants. If she gets to 50 and wants to do a | :15:32. | :15:42. | |
:15:42. | :15:44. | ||
LEA has been really quiet all day. But I think she wants to sit on her | :15:44. | :15:47. | |
dad's lap and then I think she will tell us how she feels about the | :15:47. | :15:56. | |
whole thing. What do you like most about today? The boat ride! Why? | :15:56. | :16:06. | |
:16:06. | :16:08. | ||
Because it is fast. It is, isn't How inspiring. Thanks to Lucy and | :16:08. | :16:12. | |
Nigel for the lovely film. Could you do owe us a favour? Could | :16:12. | :16:22. | |
:16:22. | :16:23. | ||
you go and get ready for the THING? Oh, the THING? He's going to do a | :16:23. | :16:29. | |
special thing later. Time to meet a man who declaim and the hero of dog | :16:29. | :16:33. | |
lovers everywhere. At the same time scaring the living daylights out of | :16:33. | :16:41. | |
the rest of us. Let's meet there mad man from the icy pond who is in | :16:41. | :16:51. | |
:16:51. | :16:54. | ||
Welcome to the programme. Nice to see you. When I saw that photograph, | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
it was horrific, it was frightening, it was intriguing, compelling. But | :16:58. | :17:04. | |
why were due in your underpants? Really, it was a case of making | :17:04. | :17:08. | |
sure I didn't have too many clothes on. Basically, I was wearing jeans | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
at the time. The last thing you want to be wearing his heavy, wet | :17:12. | :17:17. | |
jeans. I don't care that you saved the dog, I just care that he went | :17:17. | :17:22. | |
out in your pants. They do not wonder that somebody might steal | :17:22. | :17:28. | |
your clothes, while he went to rescue Bentley? Thankfully I had my | :17:28. | :17:32. | |
wife and two daughters to look after them. Was it a family | :17:32. | :17:39. | |
decision? I looked at Rachel and I said, OK, I'm doing it. To be | :17:39. | :17:46. | |
honest, I started taking my coat and boots off. This is still to do | :17:46. | :17:51. | |
with the dog? At which point, Malcolm year that he had to do it. | :17:51. | :17:55. | |
It is a crazy thing to do. You have been harangued by a lot of people, | :17:55. | :17:58. | |
as much as you have been praised, you have been criticised? | :17:58. | :18:03. | |
Absolutely. How do you feel about it in retrospect? It was a reckless | :18:03. | :18:07. | |
act. But when you see your dog drowning in the water, it takes | :18:07. | :18:11. | |
over and you have to do something. That is the decision that I took. | :18:11. | :18:17. | |
What you do it again? I think the message has to beat clear to all | :18:17. | :18:25. | |
dog owners, keep your dog on a lead mere water. Kids, don't think about | :18:25. | :18:34. | |
doing anything like this. But he was originally a rescue dog. What | :18:34. | :18:40. | |
is he? A Jack Russell. Pure. pure?! I don't think you have seen | :18:40. | :18:46. | |
the breed book. As we say, that was extremely dangerous. It was a bit | :18:46. | :18:51. | |
of a mad thing to do. Please be careful. But he did get into the | :18:51. | :18:57. | |
papers in your pants! What could be better? It is the Oscars next | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
weekend. In one of the categories, visual effect, Britain has two | :19:02. | :19:06. | |
chance of winning. Harry Potter and Hugo were both filmed at Pinewood. | :19:06. | :19:11. | |
Angelica could not resist dropping in to see if they could transform | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
her into some groovy little character. And they did. | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
Pinewood Studios is one of the Prime filming locations out of | :19:19. | :19:24. | |
Hollywood. It is at the cutting edge of technology, attracting huge | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
blockbusters from James Bond to Harry Potter. As well as finding | :19:28. | :19:32. | |
the largest blue screen in Europe and a purpose-built underwater film | :19:33. | :19:39. | |
stage, you can also enter the world of motion capture, or mo-cap. In | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
the 1932 film Bambi-like Island, artists used rota scoping to draw | :19:44. | :19:48. | |
over each frame individually and create an animated character that | :19:48. | :19:53. | |
dances in a realistic way. Computer technology can now do all of this | :19:53. | :20:02. | |
and much more. There would be no Avatar, trolls and Harry Potter or | :20:02. | :20:06. | |
Gollum in Lord Of The Rings without motion capture. Avatar to get to | :20:06. | :20:11. | |
new heights, but it's not just $37 million films that are using it. At | :20:11. | :20:15. | |
Pinewood, a whole variety of smaller projects have also utilised | :20:15. | :20:20. | |
the technology. From music videos, to computer games. And award- | :20:20. | :20:30. | |
:20:30. | :20:31. | ||
Today, it is even possible for children's television to animate | :20:31. | :20:36. | |
quickly and do for the bleak using mo-cap. Phil is the resident expert. | :20:36. | :20:42. | |
You know your stuff. But can you simply explain how it works? Sure. | :20:42. | :20:47. | |
Motion capture starts by putting a performer into a very tight Lycra | :20:47. | :20:52. | |
suit. Then we take these, which are markers. We put them on to the key | :20:52. | :20:56. | |
joints of the body. Then someone identify his or of the Mark Ayres, | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
a little bit like doing... When you are a trialled. It is this template | :21:00. | :21:06. | |
that we used to drive the character. -- a bit like joining the dots when | :21:06. | :21:11. | |
you are eight child. Performance is key? Yes, and this is Brian he was | :21:11. | :21:17. | |
already set up. This allows you to see Brian as the character. Would | :21:17. | :21:23. | |
you like to have a go? I would love 2. This is incredible, brilliant. | :21:23. | :21:26. | |
It's a very new technology. It is making motion capture a little bit | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
more like a live-action shoot. Technology is moving so fast that | :21:30. | :21:34. | |
you can now move around your actor and see the character on screen in | :21:34. | :21:39. | |
front of you. What is especially great is that Brian, with the | :21:39. | :21:43. | |
glasses, he is also seeing this. It allows him to perform like he was | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
doing it to camera. This is at work, this is having fun! No, it is work. | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
One thing we have not done is get you into the suit. I am all suited | :21:56. | :22:03. | |
and booted. Is that me on are the screen? Yes, you are the red one. | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
If you do they spin, you can see yourself moving around. How did you | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
get into this sort of acting? came into it from a puppetry | :22:11. | :22:17. | |
background. I started on Spitting Image many years ago. This is the | :22:17. | :22:23. | |
next step. It's like doing puppetry but with pixels. You are wearing | :22:23. | :22:27. | |
the suit, but without all of the Brabant the first. This is the kind | :22:27. | :22:31. | |
of technology they use in Avatar and Lord Of The Rings. Hopefully I | :22:31. | :22:36. | |
might pick one of those it! Let's make our own film, now. Because you | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
have such a small character and you take dainty steps, I take big steps. | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
My character lumbers about and does his stuff. But you are doing small, | :22:48. | :22:51. | |
quick steps. I have to forget about what I look like and think about | :22:51. | :22:56. | |
what ants look like? Concentrate on what you see in the Gorbals. | :22:56. | :23:06. | |
The possibilities are endless, from audience interaction to | :23:06. | :23:11. | |
resurrecting stars from the dead. With the technology already | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
spreading to games consoles, it will not be long before we can all | :23:14. | :23:20. | |
have mo-cap in our living rooms. But I think I need a bit more | :23:20. | :23:28. | |
You have all of that to come, mo- cap in your living room. How | :23:28. | :23:31. | |
excited are you already? Angellica Bell is here. What a fun film to | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
make. It was fantastic Kirkuk go to the studios and see it all done. | :23:36. | :23:39. | |
It's really hard for actors. They are in the room, there is no set | :23:39. | :23:43. | |
and they have no real interaction, but they have to act out the | :23:43. | :23:47. | |
characters realistically. It was really good. Is this really you? | :23:47. | :23:54. | |
is, it's not motion capture. Touch me. There is always the issue, the | :23:54. | :23:57. | |
problem with the Oscars and this kind of acting. Like you said | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
earlier, the Oscars are next week. There was a campaign to try and get | :24:03. | :24:06. | |
motion capture its own category. Some people believe it is actually | :24:06. | :24:12. | |
the visual effects team that do the work. But actors like Andy Serkis | :24:12. | :24:15. | |
think that they should be recognised in the best actor | :24:15. | :24:18. | |
category itself because they are using their facial features, they | :24:18. | :24:22. | |
are using their bodies to make those characters realistic on | :24:22. | :24:27. | |
screen. We can see him, there. did we first see motion Capture | :24:27. | :24:33. | |
being used? Well, their arguments about that. Visual effects have | :24:33. | :24:37. | |
been used since the beginning. it was just rubbish models? | :24:37. | :24:42. | |
wasn't very good. The ground- breaking moment was terminated two: | :24:43. | :24:47. | |
Judgment Day. It was the first realistic movements in a CGI | :24:47. | :24:54. | |
character. The first full length film was Toy Story. I didn't know | :24:54. | :24:58. | |
that it used that kind of stuff. Are they laughing in the | :24:58. | :25:02. | |
background? They are laughing at Paul Whitehouse because he is ready | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
for the thing. We are doing motion capture, live on the The One Show. | :25:06. | :25:16. | |
:25:16. | :25:20. | ||
Basically, he is wearing the suit. It's brilliant, isn't it? He has 18 | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
gyroscope sensors, similar to my suit. But I had lots of little | :25:24. | :25:27. | |
balls on mine. They lie in his seat and they are basically making him | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
look like a monkey, creating those movements. Could you move more? | :25:31. | :25:41. | |
:25:41. | :25:47. | ||
That is what it is all about, mate! Look at that! That is absolutely | :25:47. | :25:56. | |
brilliant. Is that monkey enough? Can you give yourself a high-five? | :25:56. | :26:00. | |
I suppose you can't, you would turn the opposite way. Look, don't ask | :26:00. | :26:07. | |
me to do anything. You've already humiliated me. My children will be | :26:07. | :26:16. | |
watching this. Could you storm off together? He's going to fall! | :26:16. | :26:23. | |
they storm off, hand in hand? Go back to the two shot. The Artist | :26:23. | :26:33. | |
:26:33. | :26:41. | ||
Brilliant! Paul is welcome to come back when he has told his suit off. | :26:41. | :26:49. | |
Ade is now appreciating the beauty of the countryside. Let's see him | :26:49. | :26:53. | |
swap anarchy in the UK for the beauty of the countryside. | :26:53. | :26:59. | |
# As I went down to the river to pray, are studying about that good | :26:59. | :27:09. | |

old way... # Stop! You are going all Matt Baker and | :27:13. | :27:18. | |
John Craven on us. What is your connection with The Dales? I don't | :27:18. | :27:23. | |
really have a strong connection. I was born in Bradford, The Dales | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
used to beat my playground. We used to go on school trips to look at | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
limestone pavement. When your teenagers, you go camping, trying | :27:31. | :27:40. | |
to pick up girls. It's a fantastic part of the world. I started to | :27:40. | :27:44. | |
ring with a folk band recently. I started going to smaller parts of | :27:44. | :27:49. | |
the UK. Normally when you do big comedy shows, you only do the | :27:50. | :27:53. | |
cities. You start going to smaller places and there was so much of | :27:53. | :27:56. | |
Britain that is fantastic. You forget it is there. Sometimes when | :27:56. | :28:01. | |
you watch television you think it is all just one homogenous whole. | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
But there are brilliant bits. it's so big, you've got to get out | :28:05. | :28:11. | |
and investigated? The Dales are so remote. There is a beautiful family | :28:11. | :28:17. | |
I visit, she is a shepherd with six kids, all born in lay-bys... No, | :28:17. | :28:23. | |
not because she is that sort of woman! Because she is so far away | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
from the hospital. She usually has to go to the army hospital in | :28:28. | :28:32. | |
Catterick to deliver. But they live so far away from everything, in the | :28:32. | :28:37. | |
Middle England. I'm amazed you cannot see the Lake District from | :28:37. | :28:42. | |
here because it is so big when you get there. So, 6 and a half hours? | :28:42. | :28:52. | |
I think it is 12. We heard that it was six. Maybe they could it and | :28:52. | :28:55. | |
didn't tell you? What other kind of things do you do? Well, we follow a | :28:56. | :28:59. | |
lot of different stories around. It's not really about me. It is | :28:59. | :29:03. | |
about following a group of singers around, a community choir that you | :29:03. | :29:07. | |
just saw, with a very amusing man that is part of the Quaye and never | :29:08. | :29:17. | |
:29:18. | :29:18. | ||
sings. He does every rehearsal and We see a prize-winning sheep owner. | :29:18. | :29:26. | |
You don't get that in Hackney, do you? In a city farm, you don't know. | :29:26. | :29:30. | |
Are you completely in the country now? I've lived on Dartmoor for the | :29:30. | :29:36. | |
last 15 years. So, The Dales or Dartmoor? I like them both. I love | :29:36. | :29:41. | |
the excitement in town and then I like going back to the country, the | :29:41. | :29:47. | |
big Skype and the stars. Can you chop wood? Of course. Can you | :29:47. | :29:51. | |
reverse a trailer? I've got this fantastic thing called a topper, | :29:51. | :29:55. | |
you put it on the back of your tractor. It's like a helicopter | :29:55. | :30:02. | |
blade in a tin box. You are still acting? A new series? The Bleak Old | :30:02. | :30:07. | |
Shop Of Stuff. You might have seen the special over Christmas. | :30:07. | :30:15. | |
didn't, to be honest. It's a Dickensian spoof? Not a bit of a | :30:15. | :30:25. | |
:30:25. | :30:30. | ||
Is this my dormitory? Full of new chums to share in pillow fights, | :30:30. | :30:34. | |
midnight feasts and adolescent acts I shall never mentioned to my | :30:34. | :30:41. | |
future wife? Hold on, where are my new chums? The only chance you will | :30:41. | :30:48. | |
have will be misery, pain and anger. -- the only chums. That is more | :30:48. | :30:57. | |
like it, because that is on BBC Two next Monday. At 8:30pm. I was only | :30:57. | :31:02. | |
paid BBC Three money! Nasty school master. You had some unconscious | :31:02. | :31:08. | |
research for that role when you were a kid. I did suffer at school. | :31:08. | :31:14. | |
I got 66 strokes. Mock all at once, but throughout my career. Did you | :31:14. | :31:24. | |
:31:24. | :31:25. | ||
count? You nearly made me Douai Clarkson there. -- do a Clarkson. | :31:25. | :31:30. | |
got whacked and a few times but I never counted. Another one, another | :31:30. | :31:37. | |

:32:03. | :32:03. | ||

up, we will find out where the Great Britain rhythmic gymnastics | :32:07. | :32:11. | |
team might have narrowly missed qualifying for the London 2012 | :32:11. | :32:18. | |
Olympics, despite being amazing. And why Tony Blackburn and David | :32:18. | :32:23. | |
Hamilton are with them, looking good in a Tutu. There is a big live | :32:23. | :32:27. | |
shows starting tomorrow night, the biggest hit on TV. More about that | :32:27. | :32:31. | |
in a moment. Before that, time for the story of a band that enjoyed a | :32:31. | :32:41. | |
:32:41. | :32:47. | ||
fleeting moment in the sun thanks # Welcome aboard. # | :32:47. | :32:50. | |
what would you bring back from a sunny Caribbean holiday. When Jeff | :32:50. | :32:54. | |
Calvert went on a cruise with his dad, he came back with a suntan and | :32:54. | :33:04. | |
:33:04. | :33:05. | ||
an idea for a song that became the hit of 1975. Barbados was the title. | :33:05. | :33:09. | |
Totally Tropical was the band, and no one was more surprised to reach | :33:09. | :33:14. | |
number one than they were. We are not performing artists. Never have | :33:14. | :33:21. | |
been, never will be. We made the record as a joke. Both Geoff and | :33:21. | :33:26. | |
Geraint were working as technicians at a music studio in London, | :33:26. | :33:31. | |
sneaking in after hours to record their own songs. My dad was a | :33:31. | :33:34. | |
musician, a guest artist on a ship out of Southampton doing a | :33:34. | :33:41. | |
Caribbean tour. He said, do you fancy coming along? As a, yes. One | :33:41. | :33:45. | |
of the islands was Barbados. I loved it. I thought, I have to | :33:45. | :33:50. | |
write a song about Barbados. We sat down one rainy afternoon in west | :33:50. | :33:57. | |
London and set to it, him on guitar, me and piano. 9 EUFOR chords, so | :33:57. | :34:04. | |
there are four chords in the song. The four that I know. In about half | :34:04. | :34:10. | |
an hour, it was there. Did you realise you were sitting on a hit? | :34:10. | :34:13. | |
Not really. I thought we were going to have a laugh and it was strange | :34:14. | :34:18. | |
how everybody was liking the song. Radio 1 picked it up and away it | :34:18. | :34:24. | |
went. Suddenly, they were shooting up the charts with their very first | :34:24. | :34:30. | |
release. Were people surprised that it was you? We kept it quiet | :34:30. | :34:34. | |
because people thought it was a good idea to keep the mystery going. | :34:34. | :34:39. | |
For quite a while we never emerged. It actually came out on the front | :34:39. | :34:48. | |
page of Record Mara. It was us in a tropical looking setting, outside | :34:48. | :34:52. | |
St John's Wood Underground station, where they have some wonderful palm | :34:52. | :34:59. | |
trees. A defining part of the record has to be the Caribbean | :34:59. | :35:04. | |
vocals. I was doing a lot of work for Trojan at the time, working | :35:04. | :35:14. | |
:35:14. | :35:14. | ||
with a lot of reggae artists. started to pick up the patois. | :35:14. | :35:19. | |
was what it was. There was nothing derogatory in we were doing. It was | :35:19. | :35:27. | |
a celebration of a style of music and of an island, really. Typically | :35:27. | :35:32. | |
tropical was a one-hit wonder, although they did go on to further | :35:32. | :35:39. | |
chart success by writing Starship trooper. Then in 1999 they received | :35:39. | :35:45. | |
a welcome phone-call. It was our publisher. They said, we have had a | :35:45. | :35:52. | |
phone call from the Finger boys. Really, what did they want? They | :35:52. | :35:56. | |
were keen on doing a version of our song but they said would we mind if | :35:56. | :36:01. | |
they changed the title. I thought, one of the biggest pop bands around | :36:01. | :36:05. | |
at the moment. Everything that they touched was getting massive. I said, | :36:05. | :36:13. | |
I think we will let them do it. was a good call. The version was a | :36:13. | :36:18. | |
hit right across Europe and brought another UK number one. Did you | :36:18. | :36:24. | |
imagine that would happen? Number one twice is a weird to think about, | :36:24. | :36:31. | |
especially with a gap of 25 years. Now, I wanted to be number 13 times. | :36:31. | :36:41. | |
:36:41. | :36:42. | ||
A hat-trick. I have got a taste for it. Where is buzzing late sleeve. - | :36:42. | :36:52. | |
:36:52. | :36:57. | ||
- lately? Have you been to Ibiza? have. Look at me, compared to you. | :36:57. | :37:03. | |
Was that the biggest one-hit wonder? No, Spirit In The Sky was a | :37:03. | :37:08. | |
hit three times, first in 1969 for Norman Greenbaum, who wrote it. It | :37:08. | :37:13. | |
was number one here, number three in the US. The same song was a hit | :37:13. | :37:18. | |
for Dr and the medics in 1986. They went to the top of the charts. They | :37:18. | :37:24. | |
looked amazing. And in 2003, Gareth Gates and a big hit with it for | :37:24. | :37:30. | |
comic relief. What was the first one hit wonder? The official charts | :37:30. | :37:37. | |
companies say the first one was a track called Broken Wings. It was | :37:37. | :37:44. | |
by art and Dotty Todd. No wonder they only had one hit. Not a catchy | :37:44. | :37:52. | |
name. But the big non-charity ensemble record was the Teletubbies. | :37:52. | :38:00. | |
Nothing wrong with the Teletubbies. I have seen them live! Are you sure | :38:00. | :38:05. | |
it was the Teletubbies? What are the ingredients for a one-hit | :38:05. | :38:11. | |
wonder? It has to be very Nish. And faddish. You have to get the moment | :38:11. | :38:16. | |
that is happening in society at that moment and write about it. | :38:16. | :38:24. | |
of the ingredients together. have my former student. I had a | :38:24. | :38:34. | |
:38:34. | :38:36. | ||
one-hit wonder myself. It is still funny, that. I thought it was worth | :38:36. | :38:41. | |
more time on screen than that. We were ready for one minute! | :38:41. | :38:46. | |
advantage of being a one-hit wonder is that you keep your anonymity. We | :38:46. | :38:50. | |
have a couple of such artists in the studio tonight. Who had a hit | :38:50. | :39:00. | |

festival in June and he and his band have been kind enough to come | :41:07. | :41:17. | |
and play. Brilliant. Lovely to have you here tonight. We have to warn | :41:17. | :41:21. | |
you that this next film contains Jay Rayner getting a bit steamy. | :41:21. | :41:25. | |
But don't worry, he is tucking into steamed puddings which are so good | :41:25. | :41:30. | |
that you can almost smell them through your TV. This is a | :41:30. | :41:35. | |
brilliant film. Cold winds from the east, economic | :41:35. | :41:39. | |
hardship looming, the haves and have-nots at loggerheads. It is | :41:40. | :41:43. | |
easy to look at today's state of affairs and be reminded of | :41:44. | :41:48. | |
Dickensian story lines. Hard times indeed. But the modern British | :41:48. | :41:52. | |
public is also looking to the Dickensian age for comfort food - | :41:52. | :41:58. | |
Victorian puddings, hot, steamed and stodgy, are back in fashion. | :41:58. | :42:01. | |
Invented to satisfy 19th century hunger, steamed puddings are | :42:01. | :42:08. | |
selling like hot cakes again. One supermarket's spotted dick sales | :42:08. | :42:13. | |
are up 39%. It is proper freezing out there and on a day like this I | :42:13. | :42:18. | |
do not want tiramisu or souffle. This hits the spot, dense, rich and | :42:18. | :42:22. | |
filling. It was good enough for the Victorians and is exactly what I | :42:22. | :42:27. | |
need, too. The National Trust Wimpole estate in Cambridgeshire. | :42:27. | :42:31. | |
When Queen Victoria dined here in 1843, a typical desert was, of | :42:31. | :42:38. | |
course, a stodgy sponge pudding. This is a cabinet pudding from the | :42:38. | :42:41. | |
1840s, which we think Queen Victoria would have eaten when she | :42:41. | :42:45. | |
visited the house. It is a basic custard mixture with brandy, orange, | :42:45. | :42:49. | |
candy peel running through it, using things like old sponge and | :42:49. | :42:56. | |
bread. It is always important to taste these things. It is very soft | :42:56. | :43:06. | |
:43:06. | :43:06. | ||
and rich, isn't it? It is quite solid. In a good way. This is a | :43:06. | :43:10. | |
Winnifred pudding, invented by Thomas Alison at the end of the | :43:10. | :43:15. | |
19th century, using whole breadcrumbs. Actually, that is | :43:15. | :43:19. | |
surprisingly light. I think that is cracking. I love the lemon running | :43:19. | :43:23. | |
through it. Waiting three hours free pudding to steam did not | :43:23. | :43:25. | |
appeal to twentieth-century families and the recipes went out | :43:25. | :43:30. | |
of fashion. Luckily, some cooks have been quietly keeping the | :43:30. | :43:36. | |
family recipes alive. Myrtle makes 500 steamed puddings each week, all | :43:36. | :43:40. | |
by hand. It is all about nostalgia. You have a generation that probably | :43:40. | :43:45. | |
have not even tried them before, but the amount of people that say, | :43:45. | :43:50. | |
that is just like my mum used to make, it is a nostalgic thing. | :43:50. | :43:55. | |
is this one that you are about to take out? This is a really old | :43:55. | :44:00. | |
traditional pudding called a Sussex pond pudding. Oh, yes. I know about | :44:00. | :44:06. | |
those. There is a whole lemon in the middle. Indeed. And the source | :44:06. | :44:09. | |
that is around it, made with sugar and butter that is inside their, | :44:09. | :44:19. | |

that comes out and creates the pond. There is citrus, but it is also | :44:32. | :44:36. | |
slightly better from the lemon peel. It's a very sweet. He would | :44:36. | :44:39. | |
definitely know that you had eaten one of these. Some versions were | :44:40. | :44:43. | |
called Lemon bombs because the skin of the lemon could explode in the | :44:43. | :44:47. | |
heat of the oven. But I'm going to make the less dangerous spotted | :44:47. | :44:53. | |
dick. First, the ingredients. Cilic, a sort of beef fat, flour, | :44:53. | :45:00. | |
breadcrumbs, sultanas and caster sugar, mix together with milk, egg | :45:00. | :45:03. | |
and possessed of an orange. The next comes together in minutes, | :45:03. | :45:08. | |
unlike the cooking time. Then it is sealed with string and baking | :45:08. | :45:18. | |
:45:18. | :45:18. | ||
parchment. If I could borrow your Steaming for three-and-a-half hours | :45:18. | :45:23. | |
might be a painful amount of time to wait, but it produces more even | :45:23. | :45:27. | |
baking with no crust. The proof really is in the pudding. Let's be | :45:27. | :45:33. | |
honest, I'm never going to be cast as a poor Victorian wife. But where | :45:33. | :45:37. | |
Great British pudding is concerned I am a veritable Oliver Twist. I | :45:37. | :45:47. | |
:45:47. | :45:49. | ||
The pudding looked lovely, but it sounds quite taxing to make. There | :45:49. | :45:54. | |
is an easier route? It's actually quite simple, it's just following | :45:54. | :45:58. | |
the recipe. Traditionally, you would steam it. But you can use the | :45:58. | :46:05. | |
same recipe and microwave it. Put the clingfilm on haplessly, because | :46:05. | :46:08. | |
otherwise it collapses. If you microwave it you have to eat it | :46:08. | :46:18. | |
:46:18. | :46:21. | ||
straight away, and not leave it. It's actually an old naval recipe. | :46:21. | :46:26. | |
It has run in it. It's the same as spotted dick but with rum and spice | :46:26. | :46:33. | |
in it. Traditionally, puddings were done without deserts and it was | :46:33. | :46:36. | |
only the Victorians that reduced the price of sugar and that is | :46:36. | :46:40. | |
where the pudding used to become more popular. Now it has gone out | :46:40. | :46:43. | |
of favour, but it is coming back the date for vengeance. It's | :46:43. | :46:49. | |
usually got to be served with custard. That was a necessity? | :46:49. | :46:55. | |
was invented by a British pharmacist. Canonise him! Alfred | :46:55. | :47:00. | |
Bird invented it because his wife was allergic to egg. That is why | :47:00. | :47:07. | |
the dried custard mix was invented. He also invented baking powder. | :47:07. | :47:12. | |
Alfred Bird of Bird's custard? Absolutely. That is the yellow one. | :47:12. | :47:19. | |
This is a French custard. English is done with vanilla. Most famously | :47:19. | :47:25. | |
you can use it with custard. If it is done with whole eggs it is egg | :47:25. | :47:29. | |
custard. Or you can take this mixture, put it into an ice-cream | :47:29. | :47:33. | |
machine and you have ice-cream. just said that is lovely, but you | :47:33. | :47:38. | |
said you don't like custard? think I am used to Mr Bird's | :47:38. | :47:45. | |
custard. The bright yellow stuff with skin on it. Standard recipe, 8 | :47:45. | :47:50. | |
egg yolks will set one litre of liquid. A pint of cream, a pint of | :47:50. | :47:55. | |
milk, ate a yolks and eight ounces of sugar. Thank you for one thing | :47:55. | :47:59. | |
in particular, keeping these two quiet for a few minutes. This is | :47:59. | :48:06. | |
incredible. Can we move on to Shrove Tuesday? What is the | :48:06. | :48:10. | |
difference between a pancake and a crater? Basically the thickness. | :48:10. | :48:14. | |
The French, you put more milk into it traditionally, for a thinner | :48:15. | :48:21. | |
pancake. A larger pan. Tell us a few tips. You have to watch the | :48:21. | :48:26. | |
show tomorrow. You are doing pancakes? I'm doing a masterclass | :48:26. | :48:30. | |
on Saturday Kitchen. The most popular shows on television, one of | :48:30. | :48:36. | |
the most successful, huge ratings. Who do you have tomorrow? Rhod | :48:36. | :48:41. | |
Gilbert is facing food heaven and food health. Curry and chips and | :48:41. | :48:45. | |
scallops. And we had a brilliant chef that uses no butter. I'm going | :48:45. | :48:54. | |
to compensate by making a battered Kerry. Fantastic. Live tomorrow. | :48:54. | :49:02. | |
Everybody has heard of honey bees, what about honey buzzards? For | :49:02. | :49:06. | |
starters, they are not buzzards and they do not make honey. This is our | :49:06. | :49:11. | |
favourite film, we watched it twice. Mike Dilger, over to you. | :49:11. | :49:16. | |
Summer in Britain brings a very rare visitor to do words. Somewhere | :49:16. | :49:20. | |
in the forest around me is the nesting site of a bird of prey that | :49:20. | :49:27. | |
enjoys near mythical status. The magnificent honey buzzard. Although | :49:27. | :49:32. | |
commonly found breeding in Europe, very few actually nest here. Those | :49:32. | :49:36. | |
that do are so secretive that little is known about their | :49:36. | :49:42. | |
movement. What we do know is that every year a small number of them | :49:42. | :49:46. | |
risk their lives crossing the Sahara to get here. What route they | :49:46. | :49:49. | |
take or exactly where they spend the winter we are only just | :49:49. | :49:56. | |
beginning to find out. For the last 25 years, Steve Roberts and his | :49:56. | :49:59. | |
colleague Malcolm have been recording any nest sites they can | :49:59. | :50:05. | |
find around the country. I like my birds, but the honey buzzard is | :50:05. | :50:09. | |
something I've hardly ever seen. Why are they so rare in Britain? | :50:09. | :50:12. | |
They always will decline it didn't suit them in this country. | :50:12. | :50:16. | |
Increasingly it seems there are other reasons for that. -- they | :50:16. | :50:19. | |
always thought that the climate didn't suit them. Maybe it is that | :50:20. | :50:24. | |
final sea crossing. It's a few jigsaw pieces in an incredibly | :50:24. | :50:28. | |
complex puzzle. So little is known about the bird? It's not just that, | :50:29. | :50:33. | |
a lot of what was written before is patently wrong. It has been | :50:33. | :50:36. | |
regurgitated over the years. We would like to think we are shedding | :50:36. | :50:40. | |
light into those dark corners. We are hoping to put some of that | :50:40. | :50:46. | |
right. One misconception concerns the name. They are not in fact | :50:46. | :50:50. | |
buzzards, but more closely related to kites. And they don't eat honey, | :50:50. | :50:56. | |
either. While other birds of prey feed on small mammals, birds or | :50:56. | :51:04. | |
fish, they eat something rather more extraordinary. Wasps. Of | :51:04. | :51:09. | |
course, there is no honey in a wasp nest. What they are really after is | :51:09. | :51:17. | |
the juicy grubs. Here in South Wales, in this Forestry Commission | :51:17. | :51:22. | |
would, a new site is being kept under surveillance. Today I am | :51:22. | :51:30. | |
going to be helping Steve with the tricks. This is honey bowler that - | :51:30. | :51:33. | |
- honey buzzard television. We are watching them live, they are about | :51:33. | :51:39. | |
100 metres away. They are just gorgeous. Look! The female. | :51:39. | :51:45. | |
female has just come in, yes. is she doing? She has brought in a | :51:45. | :51:55. | |
:51:55. | :51:56. | ||
bit of the wasp nest. Look at those yellow eyes. And it is a round eye, | :51:56. | :51:59. | |
without the fierce expression that a hawk has got. It's very different | :51:59. | :52:05. | |
to a buzzard. Short legs? That is because they use them for digging, | :52:05. | :52:10. | |
rather than grasping fast-moving pre. I cannot take my eyes off the | :52:10. | :52:15. | |
screen. It's priceless footage. Watching the birds is so | :52:15. | :52:20. | |
captivating that it is easy to forget the important job in hand, | :52:20. | :52:23. | |
to get the rings on. As soon as they are alone it is action | :52:23. | :52:33. | |
:52:33. | :52:39. | ||
With no way of telling when the parents will return, we have to be | :52:39. | :52:49. | |
:52:49. | :52:54. | ||
quick. You are not pulling very hard! It's gorgeous. Look at that. | :52:54. | :53:02. | |
First, a general health check. A then the all-important ringing. | :53:02. | :53:06. | |
These coloured plants contain a unique code revealing where and | :53:06. | :53:11. | |
when they hatched. Let's have a look at his sibling. He's got a bit | :53:11. | :53:19. | |
of an attitude, this one. Job done. Back up to the nest. If it all goes | :53:19. | :53:23. | |
well, within a few weeks they will be undertaking the extraordinary | :53:23. | :53:26. | |
non-stop flight to Africa. Hopefully they will be tempted back | :53:26. | :53:32. | |
next year. Our changing climate might mean more insects. That means | :53:32. | :53:37. | |
lots more Wasps. And that equates to better hunting for these guys. | :53:37. | :53:45. | |
If it eats Wasps, it is my kind of bird! | :53:45. | :53:51. | |
Two legends, Tony Blackburn and David Hamilton, everyone. Before we | :53:51. | :53:55. | |
talk about what is happening tonight, what is happening tomorrow | :53:55. | :54:03. | |
night? Well, it is Sport Relief tomorrow, 7 o'clock on BBC One. | :54:03. | :54:09. | |
Let's Dance? Yes. We are going to do and that the routine. After all | :54:09. | :54:13. | |
these years of knowing each other, we have decided to do it. And you | :54:13. | :54:16. | |
had been rehearsing? I don't think there is a future career in dancing, | :54:16. | :54:21. | |
but it might be comedic. It's also competitive, you get to go through | :54:21. | :54:26. | |
to the final? We are not sure about that. I'm already voting for them. | :54:26. | :54:30. | |
There are five acts tomorrow night. I think you have a brilliant chance. | :54:30. | :54:34. | |
You will see them like you have never seen them before. I can't | :54:34. | :54:42. | |
wait. That is live tomorrow, BBC One, 7 o'clock. And Steve. How is | :54:42. | :54:47. | |
he? He's all right. We're going to see you in action shortly. Before | :54:47. | :54:51. | |
that, a special routine with these amazing ladies, the Great Britain | :54:51. | :54:56. | |
rhythmic gymnastics team. Before Tony and David tried in... They are | :54:56. | :55:06. | |
:55:06. | :55:06. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 53 seconds | :55:06. | :55:59. | |
Relax! How are you? Rachel, how I do? Introduce us to began. We have | :55:59. | :56:08. | |
Louise, Annie, Jade, Frankie and Jade. There is a tone of sadness, | :56:08. | :56:15. | |
you just missed out on the Olympics by... 0.2. 0.2 what? Points. | :56:15. | :56:20. | |
there any chance of you redeeming this? Is there an appeal? We have | :56:20. | :56:26. | |
put in an appeal. We will find out at the end of the month. And what | :56:26. | :56:31. | |
did you lose out on, that a 0.2? What could you have done to secure | :56:31. | :56:35. | |
your place? The routine we did on Tuesday was not the routine that we | :56:35. | :56:40. | |
had originally... It didn't go as we wanted it to go. There were few | :56:40. | :56:43. | |
mistakes that could have been corrected. We went into the | :56:43. | :56:46. | |
competition believing that we could get the score on any of the three | :56:46. | :56:50. | |
days. We were told that was not good enough. We got the score on | :56:50. | :56:55. | |
the last Wednesday, we beat the qualification then. So there is not | :56:55. | :56:59. | |
another Team GB, it is you or no one? Yes. Let's hope the appeal is | :56:59. | :57:05. | |
successful. If it isn't, how will you progress? At the moment we are | :57:05. | :57:08. | |
training for the European Championships at the end of May in | :57:08. | :57:11. | |
Russia. We will carry on training with the support of the University | :57:11. | :57:17. | |
of Bath and our coach, Sarah Moon. You that really upset. In sporting | :57:17. | :57:21. | |
terms, it must have been devastating? It was difficult. | :57:21. | :57:25. | |
happened when you realised you haven't made it? We didn't really | :57:25. | :57:29. | |
know until Tuesday. They said it was not good enough. We have worked | :57:29. | :57:33. | |
so hard and given that so much for this that it was difficult. We are | :57:33. | :57:36. | |
still training and we are hoping for the appeal. What are the | :57:36. | :57:41. | |
realistic chances of that coming off? We don't know. Fingers crossed. | :57:41. | :57:44. | |
Speaking of training you have been doing a different kind of training. | :57:44. | :57:49. | |
How have they been doing? Are they getting it? They are really good. | :57:49. | :57:53. | |
They are getting it! We are going to get it in a moment. I don't | :57:53. | :57:58. | |
think we are going to help their chances. That is almost all for | :57:58. | :58:03. | |
tonight. Thanks to Ade, The Dales is on ITV one on Monday, 27th | :58:03. | :58:08. | |
February. And The Bleak Old Shop Of Stuff is on BBC Two this Monday at | :58:08. | :58:14. |
