:00:22. > :00:28.Hi! Hello, friends, thank you for tuning into the One Show with Alex
:00:28. > :00:35.Jones. And Chris Evans. We are going mad for the dance. Our guest
:00:35. > :00:38.is the daddy of rock and roll. beer has felt stadiums were
:00:38. > :00:44.screaming women and set Las Vegas tonight. He has drunk whisky into
:00:44. > :00:54.the night with Frank Sinatra, I am not jealous! Can you keep up with
:00:54. > :00:59.
:00:59. > :01:09.the Jones tonight? Let's have a go, How are you, Tom? Good to see you
:01:09. > :01:10.
:01:10. > :01:15.again! Lovely to see you. Have a seat. OK! I have been telling Alex
:01:15. > :01:23.this story all day. I don't believe him. He tells me that you carry a
:01:23. > :01:30.humidity meter with you wherever you go. Yes. He is not lying? Why?
:01:30. > :01:36.You have got to be... You have got to be moist in the throat. That is
:01:36. > :01:41.one thing I learned a long time ago. The first time I lost my voice one-
:01:41. > :01:46.iron was in Germany in 1967. -- when I was. I could not understand
:01:46. > :01:50.it, I did not know why. So I saw and here, nose and throat
:01:50. > :01:55.specialist, and he said, you are not used to dry whether, because
:01:55. > :02:01.you are from Great Britain. It is always moist. Very much so tonight.
:02:01. > :02:08.I had never thought about it. So he said, in Berlin, in winter, it
:02:08. > :02:16.drops to about 6%. Singers need at least 60% humidity to function
:02:16. > :02:20.correctly. So we told me about humidifiers, so I still carry them.
:02:20. > :02:25.Not exactly the same one, but the same kind as he said to get, they
:02:25. > :02:30.are made in Switzerland. And he told me about getting yourself a
:02:31. > :02:34.metre. You go into a room and measure how humid it is. Yes, it is
:02:34. > :02:42.like a little clock. You just put it on the sideboard of either side
:02:43. > :02:48.of the bed, and it will tell you. Perfection for me is 70% humidity
:02:48. > :02:53.and 70 degrees Fahrenheit. 70 and 70, and that is perfect. And if it
:02:53. > :02:59.is not, you get your humidify out? Yes, if it is below that, I put the
:02:59. > :03:06.human a fire on. Is it nice in here? Yes, it feels lovely! How is
:03:06. > :03:13.it for you? Lovely! Do you have a spare one, Tom? Do they do them in
:03:13. > :03:19.pain? We will move on! Stay tuned, Tom is a top man. Also tonight,
:03:19. > :03:26.James Martin is here. He is dishing up some favourites for Father's Day.
:03:26. > :03:30.Plus Angela Rippon will be bigging up Rippon's Britain. And we are
:03:30. > :03:36.looking for brand new dance. If you are qualified for Father's Day for
:03:36. > :03:43.the first time this year, send us a picture. The Mall as. We are
:03:43. > :03:51.setting the bar high with his absolute belter. Jamie is that dad,
:03:51. > :03:54.Bruce is the baby from Penarth. Penarth in Cardiff. Yeah. 50 years
:03:54. > :03:58.ago, John F Kennedy made his historic speech promising that
:03:58. > :04:08.America would reach the moon by the end of the 1960s, and he was right,
:04:08. > :04:09.
:04:09. > :04:12.they did. But he will lead the next Space industry analysts have
:04:12. > :04:22.recently ranked the top five nations most likely to get us back
:04:22. > :04:30.
:04:30. > :04:34.to the moon. The United States. It may surprise you, but it does
:04:35. > :04:42.not surprise me. As a proud Manx resident, I know we're the up for
:04:42. > :04:45.front of innovation. During the Second World War, radar was
:04:45. > :04:50.developed at 3G telephones were developed here, so it is no
:04:51. > :04:55.surprise that we are a big player. Nestled among the islanders are 20
:04:55. > :05:00.companies working in the space industry. Space tourism, or that of
:05:00. > :05:05.filing, optics for spacecraft, International Space University, an
:05:05. > :05:09.amazing collection. Is it just tax breaks? It is wider than that.
:05:09. > :05:16.There are grants of up to 40% available. The government helps to
:05:16. > :05:22.market the industry, it is a package. This company is the real
:05:22. > :05:26.deal. They have already had great success with incredibly smooth
:05:26. > :05:30.lenses for the Mars lander trip which helped the roving robot
:05:30. > :05:34.capture stunning images of snowstorms on the red planet.
:05:35. > :05:40.are used for four very precise metrology to evaluate what is going
:05:40. > :05:44.on in the planet's atmosphere. If you look at this, it is made up of
:05:44. > :05:54.four prisons. They are being held together not by magical white bloom
:05:54. > :05:54.
:05:54. > :05:58.but surely by molecular force. -- By Magic or glue. I am on my way to
:05:58. > :06:03.meet a real-life space man with big plans. He is a bona fide hero of
:06:03. > :06:09.the Russian Federation and a cosmonaut. Welcome to the Isle of
:06:09. > :06:15.Man! He has been around the earth 150 times. We are heading out into
:06:15. > :06:25.the countryside, where he is going to show me something special.
:06:25. > :06:32.in, welcome to the space station It is a real space station, and we
:06:32. > :06:38.are planning to launch it. You plan to turn this into a space hotel?
:06:38. > :06:43.might not exactly be a hotel, it is a living room, a working place, an
:06:43. > :06:48.apartment. We are planning for six people to stay one month. Is it big
:06:48. > :06:55.enough? It is not big enough on the planet, but in zero-gravity you
:06:55. > :07:00.have the opportunity to fly everywhere. You can sleep there, up
:07:01. > :07:04.here, on the roof! The space station is being stored at the
:07:04. > :07:13.company's HQ while research continues, but the future of monde
:07:13. > :07:17.site is likely to be in Russia. -- the launch. We are planning to
:07:17. > :07:22.start space tourism in 2014. have lived in space, what is it
:07:22. > :07:28.like to look down on the earth? is amazing. It is not possible to
:07:28. > :07:37.say in a couple of words. You understand when you are. So this
:07:37. > :07:43.really is a giant leap for mankind. -- Manx kind.
:07:43. > :07:47.Very clever! We are welcoming a real space scientists and
:07:47. > :07:52.government adviser, Dr Maggie Aderin-Pocock. We were talking
:07:52. > :07:59.about your name earlier, it is Welsh but you are Caribbean.
:07:59. > :08:04.Nigerian. Does it mean bird? Tom will know that. Do you have any
:08:04. > :08:09.Welsh in you at all? Not as far as I know. It is a Nigerian bird as
:08:09. > :08:12.well, that must be what it is. seriously do you take what they are
:08:12. > :08:17.doing in the Isle of Man? They are really going for it, getting new
:08:17. > :08:21.equipment. They are going for the X Prize, so I think in future it
:08:21. > :08:28.should be very exciting. The most famous one is the Virgin One.
:08:28. > :08:31.Virgin Galactic. But there is space tourism all over the place. People
:08:31. > :08:37.see it as the next step. Lots of people want to get out into space,
:08:37. > :08:42.I am one of them. You are desperate! You want to go beyond,
:08:43. > :08:49.you are like Buzz Lightyear. I want to go to Mars. She wants to go
:08:49. > :08:53.straight to Mars! Why is that your dream destination? Well, I am a
:08:53. > :08:56.space scientist, so I ran into a sort of thing, and to have a whole
:08:56. > :09:00.planets to explore, you could potentially live on Mars. It has an
:09:00. > :09:06.atmosphere and it has water. You could potentially grow plants and
:09:06. > :09:10.live on Mars. That is my retirement plan. But we are being dealt out as
:09:10. > :09:16.human beings, aren't we? The focus is on robotics, and we spend a lot
:09:16. > :09:20.in the UK. We contribute about �7.5 billion to the UK economy. It is
:09:20. > :09:25.growing very rapidly. It is recession-proof, because it is an
:09:25. > :09:27.up and coming thing. The emphasis is on robots because getting humans
:09:28. > :09:33.into space is dangerous and expensive. You have to protect them
:09:33. > :09:38.and feed them. It is nasty and Ben. You can pay to be a space traveller.
:09:38. > :09:45.Oh, yes. If you want to spend a week on the International Space
:09:45. > :09:51.Station, that costs $20 million. What you get for $20 million?!
:09:51. > :09:58.Dehydrated food! Our people paid to do that? A number of people have.
:09:58. > :10:04.Are you interested, Tom? You have got to have quite a bit of money.
:10:04. > :10:10.Do you fancy it, Tom? No! I'm frightened I would not get back.
:10:10. > :10:15.think you go as a group, don't you? You can still get lost in a groove!
:10:15. > :10:20.It has happened before. There are short of flights you can take,
:10:20. > :10:24.which probably lasts about three hours. You go some or all. If you
:10:24. > :10:29.go above 100 kilometres, that makes you an astronaut, and you are
:10:29. > :10:33.weightless for about five minutes, then you come back down to earth.
:10:33. > :10:36.Over the last couple of days, it has been good for space spectating,
:10:36. > :10:40.if you like. We have at the lunar eclipse and then we had the space
:10:40. > :10:44.station going over after midnight, a very good view of that. What
:10:44. > :10:49.other highlights? There is plenty to say, but unfortunately not
:10:49. > :10:55.tonight. I can barely see you, to be honest. There are lots of
:10:55. > :10:58.planets, Jupiter, Saturn. Just before sunset, you can see been as
:10:58. > :11:02.beautifully. Also, coming up in a couple of months there is a meteor
:11:03. > :11:08.shower. That is lots of shooting stars in a nice guy. Glass of wine,
:11:08. > :11:12.beautiful. You see them anyway, don't you? I see that most nights.
:11:12. > :11:16.Thank you for being on the show. You can see those with the naked
:11:16. > :11:21.eye, apparently. Take That are on tour and will enclose to 2 million
:11:21. > :11:24.women around the country as we speak. If you do not believe us, we
:11:24. > :11:31.sent Paraic O'Brien down to Cardiff to take a look, and he just about
:11:31. > :11:41.made it back in one piece. Welcome to Cardiff, and the feeling here is
:11:41. > :11:46.
:11:46. > :11:56.of the world's biggest hen party On a scale of 1 to 10, how drunk I
:11:56. > :11:57.
:11:57. > :12:07.going to get tonight? 10! 25? Is that a two pints plus you have
:12:07. > :12:12.
:12:12. > :12:18.got? What is the atmosphere like? You are a fan, I gather. I love
:12:18. > :12:26.them, Gary in particular. What kind of night are you expecting? Lots of
:12:26. > :12:34.fun, a great show, lots of 40-year- old women. Hello! I love you, Chris
:12:34. > :12:40.Evans! Well, Paraic O'Brien has not been the same since, but he did
:12:40. > :12:45.tell us... Tom, you have been there and done that, you are still doing
:12:45. > :12:50.that, and you are friends with Robbie, he is in LA. Yes, we live
:12:50. > :12:55.in LA, he lives just up the street from the. Do you hang? I have not
:12:55. > :13:00.seen him for a while. I like, I have been power walking, because I
:13:00. > :13:05.had to lose some weight. I put on a lot of weight over Christmas.
:13:05. > :13:10.put on two stone over Christmas! That is what you told me. Yes, I
:13:10. > :13:16.couldn't believe it. I thought, this has got to come off. I started
:13:16. > :13:20.power walking, because where we live, Robbie and myself, there is
:13:20. > :13:27.three hills on this estate. So I was out power walking, and Robbie
:13:27. > :13:32.was running with his dog. So he said, what? I said, I am losing
:13:32. > :13:38.some weight. He said, me too, so we have both been trying to lose
:13:38. > :13:43.weight. He is younger than me, he was running, I was walking. You are
:13:43. > :13:47.still looking good, my friend. Did you leave the vanguard of Brits in
:13:47. > :13:53.Los Angeles? He went out there before it was de rigueur? I went
:13:53. > :13:58.out there in 1976. Was it a brave thing to do? Financially, because
:13:58. > :14:01.the Labour government got in at the time, and Harold Wilson, so my
:14:01. > :14:07.accountant said, if you want to keep any of the money you have made
:14:07. > :14:14.this year, do not come back to Britain. I was doing this American
:14:14. > :14:24.tour in 1974, and he said, if you step forward there, they will take
:14:24. > :14:25.
:14:25. > :14:30.its, 84% on earnings, and 98% on Was there an exodus of British
:14:30. > :14:40.stars? Yes. My manager came with me, Gordon Mills, and Engelbert
:14:40. > :14:42.
:14:42. > :14:47.Humperdinck, because we were friends then. Andrew Rod Stewart. I
:14:47. > :14:53.think Elton John was the only one that did not. You are aware that
:14:53. > :14:58.Harold Wilson is no longer in power and you can come back now? Yes. 10
:14:58. > :15:05.years I was away. Well, a little bird says that your wife would like
:15:05. > :15:10.to come back and spend more time here. Yes. Would you be looking for
:15:10. > :15:17.a flat? It is up to her. There would be ideal, to get a flat in
:15:17. > :15:23.London and keep the house in LA. sister is selling quite a damp flat
:15:23. > :15:26.in Cardiff. I have done that one. You are doing a lot of outdoor gigs
:15:26. > :15:35.this summer, and he kicked off the Isle of Wight Festival last week.
:15:35. > :15:42.How was that? Great, I loved it. You followed Van Morrison. That was
:15:42. > :15:47.in Glastonbury in 1992. I am just 19 years out with that! What are
:15:47. > :15:54.you looking forward to? As long as I am on stage and there are people,
:15:54. > :15:59.it can be indoors, outdoors. T In The Park is going to be quite a big
:15:59. > :16:02.one. I have my own sound and lighting and everything, so it is a
:16:02. > :16:06.self-contained, and then it is up to the audience. Without them, it
:16:06. > :16:12.is not worth showing up. And you start the rest of your tour
:16:12. > :16:19.tomorrow. Haydock, Merseyside. And you are going to Europe. Where are
:16:19. > :16:25.you going, Poland? Scandinavia, we are going. France and Spain. So,
:16:25. > :16:28.yeah, there are a lot of festivals. One of the things we like to do is
:16:28. > :16:33.to take stars back to where they were born, and we are going to do
:16:33. > :16:36.that now. Tonight, it is the turn of 60s wild child Marianne
:16:36. > :16:42.Faithfull, who returns to a house she always felt was too small for
:16:43. > :16:51.her. I am Marianne Faithfull and I am
:16:51. > :16:56.going back to Millman Road, which IMF 47 years ago when I was 17. --
:16:56. > :17:00.which I left 47 years ago. I was lucky to come here. Even to go to
:17:00. > :17:03.the little school over the road was a great experience but it is a long
:17:03. > :17:13.time ago now, and now I am going back in and I feel very odd about
:17:13. > :17:27.
:17:27. > :17:31.God! It is very, very small. So this was really the playroom for me
:17:31. > :17:41.and my friends. And we played records, and I was very happy, very,
:17:41. > :17:42.
:17:42. > :17:46.very happy in this house, but it's My parents'' marriage was not a
:17:46. > :17:53.success. And my father bought this little house for my mother and me
:17:53. > :17:58.to live then. -- to live in. It was tricky. They did not like each
:17:58. > :18:04.other. I think my father put her here to his humiliate her. This was
:18:04. > :18:08.the meanest, smallest house he could find. It was in Reading
:18:08. > :18:13.because Reading was near the community started in Oxfordshire,
:18:13. > :18:20.which was called Braziers Park. That was where I had lived until we
:18:20. > :18:26.moved here. And this was my first experience of a close little house,
:18:26. > :18:32.a Home relationship with my mother. No, it is very different. We used
:18:32. > :18:38.to have a lawn and little flower beds. She used to send me out to
:18:38. > :18:44.comb the flowers. I remember it was one of the first pointless things
:18:44. > :18:50.she asked me to do. I was always dying to play in the allotments but
:18:50. > :18:55.I wasn't allowed to. When I was about seven, I invited a little
:18:55. > :18:59.playmate round to my house, and she went back and told my school
:19:00. > :19:03.friends, Marianne Faithfull lived in a slum in a backstreet. I was
:19:03. > :19:09.very hurt. I didn't think this was a slum in a backstreet. I thought
:19:09. > :19:14.it was a lovely house. But I began to notice these kind of things as I
:19:14. > :19:20.grew up. I wanted to be successful, wanted to be famous, wanted to do
:19:20. > :19:28.all these things. And now when I am here, I think, what was the rush,
:19:29. > :19:36.why? I had lots of friends. Lots of boyfriends, lots of both. I was
:19:36. > :19:43.very beautiful, too beautiful for my own good. And I felt weird about
:19:43. > :19:53.it. I really wasn't quite sure how to react to it. I wasn't prepared
:19:53. > :19:54.
:19:54. > :19:59.for that devastating effect. But, hey! I was so emotionally dependent
:19:59. > :20:05.on my mother. I was not allowed to stay out late. She had to know
:20:05. > :20:13.where I was going, what I was doing. So I had no room for sort of
:20:13. > :20:18.underhand things, you know. She was strict. She saw me as an extension
:20:18. > :20:26.of herself, like a third hand. She brought me up like a dog, to obey
:20:26. > :20:30.and to absolutely follow her, and questioning. -- without questioning.
:20:30. > :20:36.Only when I became a teenager, I started to question. I realised we
:20:36. > :20:40.had a very different idea of my future. She did believe that she
:20:40. > :20:50.could control people, and this made me more and more determined. I
:20:50. > :21:12.
:21:12. > :21:17.wanted to be in control of what I Do you ever wake up and think, I am
:21:17. > :21:20.too beautiful? Yes, but people will just have to cope with it. So, her
:21:20. > :21:27.relationship with her mother was a bit strange. How was your
:21:27. > :21:32.relationship with your dad? Well, my father passed away, you know, a
:21:32. > :21:36.long time ago. But we were very close. I could not wait to go
:21:36. > :21:42.drinking with him, when I was a kid, because he had two brothers and
:21:42. > :21:47.they all used to go to this club on a Sunday morning. And my cousins,
:21:47. > :21:52.my older cousins, they all went with them. I was still a kid. So I
:21:52. > :21:56.thought, one day I'm going to be going with them, so I couldn't wait.
:21:56. > :22:02.Did you think there was a mystery to where they were going. What goes
:22:02. > :22:07.on behind the smoked glass? Well, it was a manly thing, to stand
:22:07. > :22:11.there with these fellows that could drink. The thing was, when you
:22:11. > :22:17.first went through the doors, you thought, they just stand around and
:22:17. > :22:24.don't talk to each other! Not in Wales, they were talking. Was your
:22:24. > :22:28.dad a hard man, tough but fair? but he was lovely. He was a
:22:28. > :22:33.coalminer. He was as gentle as you could become as opposed. We can
:22:33. > :22:43.have a look at your dad, we have some lovely footage from 1964 when
:22:43. > :22:54.
:22:54. > :23:04.# Down the road I look, and their runs Mary
:23:04. > :23:06.
:23:06. > :23:11.Where was that in your career? was at the beginning, I think. It
:23:11. > :23:15.might have been 66, when I had the green, green grass of home, and I
:23:15. > :23:22.went back and all the family got together. We had pictures taken in
:23:22. > :23:29.the House that I used to living. You earn your stripes in working
:23:29. > :23:36.men's clubs. Were those tough gigs? Not really, not for me. Some people
:23:36. > :23:41.thought it was, but thank God I could sing and I was Louth. You
:23:41. > :23:46.learn that in Wales. -- I was loud. You had to, because when I started
:23:46. > :23:54.singing in the pubs there were no microphones, so you had to project.
:23:54. > :23:59.No microphones? Not in the pubs. None at all? No. And even if there
:23:59. > :24:03.were, there was a big rugby player there, and he would get on the

:24:07. > :24:13.local club, but he would make it his business to take it on the
:24:13. > :24:22.stand and put it as far away from him as possible. And he would sing
:24:22. > :24:27.my mother's eyes. We used to say, go on. By the time this feller
:24:27. > :24:35.ended the song, we were all crying, because he sang it so well. We want
:24:35. > :24:43.to show you a bit of film. See what you think.
:24:43. > :24:53.# My granddaddy and me # Over the seven seas we did Romao
:24:53. > :24:56.
:24:56. > :25:03.A couple of things, there didn't seem to be any other men on the
:25:03. > :25:11.boat, just you. That's right. Quite right. You were very brave to go
:25:11. > :25:14.out there in very small trunks. Was that your idea? Yes. Here is the
:25:14. > :25:18.question. There was a point when your voice was everything and that
:25:18. > :25:21.why you were discovered and that was why people loved you and you
:25:21. > :25:25.became successful. There was another point when the image
:25:25. > :25:32.overtook the voice. And then the voice won again. When did that
:25:32. > :25:42.happen? Add that you were so relieved. It started with Kiss, the
:25:42. > :25:47.Art of noise, when a record of that. And I was wearing a black suit, to
:25:47. > :25:53.try to tone it down and just let the record speak for itself. And it
:25:53. > :25:59.did. So that was the beginning of it. And was that a sigh of relief?
:26:00. > :26:04.Yes. As you say, my image overpowered my talent. I didn't
:26:04. > :26:10.really mean that to happen. Well, then again I shouldn't have worn
:26:10. > :26:14.such a tight trunks! You just said it was your choice. Makoni have
:26:14. > :26:23.myself to blame. You need the ammunition to make them tight in
:26:23. > :26:28.the first place. This week's Foodie Friday film has a twist. Jay is not
:26:28. > :26:34.here! He is off tasting food somewhere else. But James Martin is
:26:34. > :26:38.here. He will be telling us why calories do not count on Father's
:26:38. > :26:46.Day. But Jay left behind a film that will have us yearning for the
:26:46. > :26:51.sweet taste of summer, we hope. If you take a few of these, add a
:26:51. > :26:55.large number of these, and mix it all together with loads of water
:26:55. > :27:01.and sugar, you get this. A long, refreshing drink that tastes of
:27:01. > :27:09.summer. In fact, the elderflower is believed to heralds the start of
:27:09. > :27:13.the summer, and its berries the end. The elder is a very traditional
:27:13. > :27:18.English plant. You will find it in hedgerows, woodlands and scrubland.
:27:18. > :27:22.It grows very easily. The name comes from a Saxon word for fire,
:27:22. > :27:27.kindling, and it is very good for starting fires with in winter.
:27:27. > :27:31.it have other uses? He has been used in herbal medicines and
:27:31. > :27:35.organic gardeners use the lead to makes brave to deal with aphids.
:27:36. > :27:40.And at this time of year we have the flowers with the beautiful
:27:40. > :27:47.perfume. Later in the year we have the beautiful berries, which give a
:27:47. > :27:51.distinctive flavour to any wine or pies that you put them in. Until
:27:51. > :27:55.recently, elderflower cordial or wine may have seemed an old-
:27:55. > :28:00.fashioned thing your aunt might have made, but this is the year of
:28:00. > :28:04.the elderflower. It is free and easy to make, so my wife tells me.
:28:04. > :28:08.But here in the Beaver Valley, a small family business has taken the
:28:08. > :28:12.ancient hedgerow plant and has grown it commercially, building up
:28:12. > :28:21.a thriving enterprise, making the cordial from an old handed down
:28:21. > :28:23.recipe. It went out of fashion for a while. Why was that? If you went
:28:23. > :28:30.back to the 19th century, more drink was home-made, lemonade,
:28:30. > :28:33.ginger beer. In the 20th century, we had Coca-Cola, let's be modern.
:28:33. > :28:43.And now there is a move back to some of the older drinks made from
:28:43. > :28:47.real, wholesome ingredients. All of the elder flowers are hand-picked.
:28:47. > :28:51.It is reflective. These cultivated fields are used for the organic
:28:51. > :28:56.cordial but the ordinary stuff can be made from any elderflower that
:28:56. > :29:01.grows along the road, and it is. People pick up on their farms, pony
:29:01. > :29:06.paddocks, industrial estates. It is all good. Families go out picking
:29:06. > :29:11.and then they send it up to us, and we send them cash on the nail for a
:29:11. > :29:17.farm gate purchase. Down the lane, we found Robert, who picks flowers
:29:17. > :29:24.in his spare time. Have you been doing this for long? About two or
:29:24. > :29:33.three years. It was in the Grantham Journal - money does grow on trees.
:29:33. > :29:38.Someone who never stops working throughout the artist is Phyllis,
:29:38. > :29:42.who has been making the cordial to the original family recipe for a
:29:42. > :29:48.quarter of a century. What is the secret to a really good elderflower
:29:48. > :29:52.cordial? It is quite a simple recipe, there is only four
:29:52. > :29:57.ingredients other than elderflowers. Water, citric acid, lemons and
:29:57. > :30:01.sugar. Very simple indeed. It is the pollen that gives it the
:30:01. > :30:06.flavour, a good fresh, clean smell when it is brought in is essential,
:30:07. > :30:10.and a bit of tender loving care. The cordial is all very well, but
:30:10. > :30:16.what I want to try is the alcoholic version. Tell me how hard it is to
:30:16. > :30:20.make booms out of elderflower. is very simple. Bubbly is the
:30:20. > :30:24.easiest of all. All you need is three of the flower heads, some
:30:24. > :30:29.sugar, white wine vinegar and lemons. Mix them with a gallon of
:30:29. > :30:33.water, it is delicious and refreshing. What is this? This is
:30:33. > :30:43.elderflower wine, slightly more complicated, you need to get the
:30:43. > :30:45.
:30:45. > :30:48.paddles off the stalks. It ferments There was something leave
:30:48. > :30:52.wonderfully British about the aroma and the taste of elderflower, and
:30:52. > :30:59.exploiting them is using them as something you might find at the end
:30:59. > :31:03.of your garden or a country lane. So Father's Day, we had elderflower,
:31:03. > :31:08.but some more of your photographs if you qualified for a Father's Day
:31:08. > :31:15.treat for the first time ever. This is Michael and Teddy. We have got
:31:15. > :31:22.another one here, Julian and Alexander here. The new best dad
:31:22. > :31:31.ever, apparently. This has been taken by his six-week-old son! That
:31:31. > :31:36.is from Morley in Leeds. Sammy is their dad,... Wrong way up! Back in
:31:36. > :31:41.space there. James Martin is here. Calories don't count, it is all
:31:41. > :31:47.right when James's year. You're going to deep-fry elderflowers.
:31:47. > :31:53.a batter made out of body odour, tonic and eased. Tom's eyes have
:31:53. > :31:58.leapt out! You can make it in 45 minutes. It smells like bread, you
:31:58. > :32:06.get this lovely thing. It has got vodka which will literally burst as
:32:06. > :32:10.you put the elderflowers in there. So you can have vodka chips?
:32:10. > :32:15.could deep-fry fish, chips, whatever you want. The bard Go will
:32:15. > :32:23.burn away. It wants to go in the fryer for a good 30 seconds or
:32:23. > :32:28.something like that. Vic off the tree, not the one on the ground. --
:32:28. > :32:33.fig. It is very important, if you are going to do these, be careful
:32:33. > :32:40.when you wash them. Water and hot oil do not match. I have got a
:32:40. > :32:47.selection of great puddings for you to try while those of brine. --
:32:47. > :32:51.frying. There are about 80,000 calories honest. One of the
:32:51. > :32:55.puddings is 3,000 calories per portion! Tom has been power walking.
:32:55. > :33:01.This is white chocolate and whisky butter pudding. We have had this
:33:01. > :33:09.before. A little bit, OK. You have got sticky toffee pudding, which is
:33:09. > :33:12.that one. That is all right, isn't it? Sweet, isn't it? You have got
:33:12. > :33:16.sticky toffee pudding, vanilla and raspberry pavlova, because
:33:16. > :33:21.raspberry is in season at the moment. And to help you with this
:33:21. > :33:25.seasonal food, this is summer pudding, it is very quick, the
:33:25. > :33:30.recipe is on the website. You can make it with clotted cream. Inside
:33:30. > :33:36.there is a big mass of clotted cream. Can we have a look? Can I
:33:36. > :33:45.lean over, Mr Director? Don't lean over! How am I supposed to get to
:33:45. > :33:52.the food?! The only one suit for himself! Oh, Tom, there are no
:33:52. > :33:56.calories in this, pal! I can see that. These are fritters now, the
:33:56. > :34:06.elder flowers. A good dusting of icing sugar over the top. That will
:34:06. > :34:14.sweeten them up. Do you fancy one of those? They are quite hot.
:34:14. > :34:20.normally charges 75 quid for that. That is a 75 quid starter! 60! Give
:34:20. > :34:26.As one tip for could bat up. Ganz tonic does work really well.
:34:27. > :34:31.You could use Jian, but as the batter hits the fry-up, it
:34:31. > :34:36.evaporates. It works really well with that. You can deep-fried fish
:34:36. > :34:44.with the same battle. What you think, Tom? Nice. Why don't you
:34:44. > :34:50.just married James? I would, wouldn't you?! What is the

:38:57. > :39:02.You only did one? I think Shirley Bassey was the only one who did

:39:49. > :39:55.night?! Not that night. What were premiers like in those days? Were
:39:56. > :40:00.they more genuine? I just went and sat in the back row of the theatre,
:40:00. > :40:06.the cinema, and that was it, really. I do not know what they did
:40:06. > :40:10.afterwards, but I ended up in some pub somewhere. With someone! He is
:40:10. > :40:17.there any truth in the rumours that you were considered for a James

:40:21. > :40:28.known, you know, as Tom Jones. People would not take me seriously
:40:28. > :40:32.as James Bond. No! For the James Bond role?! We heard you might be

:41:40. > :41:46.Salzmann and cut the broccoli were looking for a gorgeous blonde lady
:41:46. > :41:51.who could act. And was vivacious and had a lovely figure! So I went
:41:51. > :41:58.to see Harry. I did not have an audition, but all he was concerned

:42:03. > :42:08.remember that scene very well. was a seminal scene, it was one of

:42:13. > :42:20.am not here, that will still be around. Getting the pained off was
:42:20. > :42:26.a nightmare, apparently. Yes, terribly difficult. Many scrubbers?
:42:26. > :42:31.Two! Two Ladies, the hairdresser and the make-up lady came and
:42:31. > :42:37.scrubbed me down. I bet it was quite relaxing to have that done.
:42:37. > :42:42.Yes, it was very nice. He was a lovely French make-up man, it took
:42:43. > :42:52.about an hour, and I was painted with his gorgeous big brush that
:42:53. > :42:54.
:42:54. > :43:00.was very soft. It tickled, did it? Yes! Was it made of horse hair?
:43:00. > :43:04.was the finest paintbrush you can use. It was strange, you know, I
:43:04. > :43:10.had a little G-string on, and before Madonna I had gold cones on
:43:10. > :43:16.my boobs. I stood there and he painted me, it was fun. Well,

:47:17. > :47:22.building is the oldest family manufacturer in England. Philip
:47:22. > :47:26.Wright is the fifth generation of a business that started in 1889. His
:47:26. > :47:31.hats have graced the most elegant special occasions in the land.
:47:31. > :47:35.should avoid any brim that casts a shadow over the face. This would
:47:35. > :47:40.work because it is soft. clients include royals, the rich
:47:40. > :47:46.and famous. But what matters is not who they are, but how they look in
:47:46. > :47:50.a hat. I am only interested in if they are going to be photographed
:47:51. > :47:56.and filmed. That is the job. You can wear a fantastic outfit and
:47:56. > :48:02.look good. With a hat, you're going to be remembered. Downstairs, they
:48:02. > :48:06.are making hats for men. Grenadier Guards men. Perhaps that the
:48:06. > :48:13.Household Guards wear, the bearskin hats, this is the inner, made out
:48:13. > :48:19.of felt and the bare skin goes on top. Kevin, Barry and four others
:48:19. > :48:24.are the total workforce here. A century ago, the figure was 1000.
:48:24. > :48:28.But the new emphasis on unique designs means business is booming.
:48:28. > :48:35.There is so much variety and hats are great because it is a dressing
:48:35. > :48:39.up party. The streets of Luton used to be jammed with hat businesses.
:48:39. > :48:46.Cottage industry and hat factories. Today, with fewer people wearing
:48:46. > :48:49.hats, and overseas competition, most of them have gone. This is one
:48:49. > :48:57.success story. The traditional manufacturing about to celebrate
:48:57. > :49:01.its centenary as a family business. The Luton boater, still seen on the
:49:01. > :49:07.smartest heads. They make 4000 a year for clients ranging from the
:49:07. > :49:11.Henley Regatta crowds to Morris men, even Elton John. Today's batch is
:49:11. > :49:17.for Harrow School. It is fair to say that Luton and straw hats have
:49:17. > :49:21.had a relationship for centuries. Yes, records of people in straw
:49:21. > :49:25.houses making straw hats from the early industry. By 1800, you have
:49:25. > :49:29.children going to school each day to make Platts to supply that
:49:29. > :49:36.industry. So the hat industry provided an incredible amount of
:49:36. > :49:41.jobs. It did. By 1870, you had 17,000 people officially recorded.
:49:41. > :49:45.In reality there would have been a much higher number than that.
:49:45. > :49:50.Platt is not made here any more, it is all imported from China. But
:49:50. > :49:54.then the boaters and all of these other hats are exported from Luton
:49:54. > :49:58.to worldwide market. They were every day where in the early days.
:49:58. > :50:04.At this vocal protest, even the policemen were wearing straw
:50:04. > :50:08.helmets, made in Luton. The trade was a heritage taken for granted.
:50:08. > :50:12.So, the question is, have the people of Luton lost touch with the
:50:12. > :50:16.industry that put their town on the map? We have come to this shopping
:50:16. > :50:26.centre to show them what they are missing. Did you know that Luton
:50:26. > :50:26.
:50:26. > :50:34.was famous for its hat trade? Wow! I want to wear it. You would
:50:34. > :50:44.wear that Ascot? Yes, absolutely. Highlighted. Do you feel glamorous?
:50:44. > :50:44.
:50:44. > :50:54.I do, except for the jogging bottoms. I like it. Do you like it?
:50:54. > :50:57.Yes, it is cool. I personally would not wear it. Why? There are eight
:50:57. > :51:01.manufacturers still busy in Luton, turning out tens of thousands of
:51:01. > :51:04.hats, so it is certainly a living claim to fame. But the casual
:51:04. > :51:08.visitor might never know that because there is not one hat shop
:51:08. > :51:12.to be found. I have found a stall full of hats and caps, very
:51:12. > :51:16.cheerful but definitely not made here. This message might come from
:51:16. > :51:22.the heart of Luton, the home of the hat, but the head gear itself comes
:51:22. > :51:26.from China. Gertrude Shilling was one of
:51:26. > :51:30.Britain's most stylish wearers of hats, earning the nickname the
:51:30. > :51:36.Ascot Mascot. They were mostly design by her son, David, who is
:51:36. > :51:40.here. People thought your mum designed them, but it was you.
:51:40. > :51:46.started when I was 12, so I have been shocking people with my hats
:51:46. > :51:51.for a long time. This is your mother at Ascot. That is quite some
:51:51. > :51:58.hat. You have to be an architect and a flower arranger at the same
:51:58. > :52:02.time to do my job. It is like a coral reef! What else? Their Shias,
:52:02. > :52:08.outside Ascot, and you in the background. With more hair, when I
:52:08. > :52:13.was younger. I started when I was 12 and that was the 70s. You did
:52:13. > :52:18.not train as a milliner. I never went to art college and my parents
:52:18. > :52:25.were horrified that I wanted to design at all. Look how caul you
:52:25. > :52:31.look. I think you look better than your mum. She looks wonderful.
:52:31. > :52:36.has a very small hat. That is actually a jacket. She was famous
:52:36. > :52:42.for these huge hats, so I wanted surprise people with a tiny one.
:52:43. > :52:48.But the caller is enormous. I am wearing a full-length mink coat.
:52:48. > :52:51.The audience are glued to this item. We have some collectors items here.
:52:51. > :52:54.The further one in the middle, there is a similar one in the
:52:54. > :52:59.Metropolitan Museum of Art, and most of my work is collected and
:52:59. > :53:04.ends up in museums, which I never intended. It is extraordinary. But
:53:04. > :53:07.at the time I started, no British designer was even thought of and
:53:07. > :53:11.respected internationally. When booming Dales bought my first
:53:11. > :53:19.collection, it was a breakthrough for British fashion. Similarly, to
:53:19. > :53:23.have a hat in the Louvre museum, they showed one between 2008-2010,
:53:23. > :53:33.in a mammoth exhibition of design. That was unheard of for a British
:53:33. > :53:36.designer to be in a French museum of art. Thank you. From hat
:53:37. > :53:40.designers to the people who design fantasy worlds. Marty Jopson has
:53:40. > :53:50.the story of a man who was determined to bring his futuristic
:53:50. > :53:50.
:53:50. > :53:57.The death ray, a terrifying beam of light. From Archimedes to HG Wells,
:53:57. > :54:00.it was once the stuff of legend. But in the 1920s, it stopped being
:54:00. > :54:06.science fiction. The prospect of a real death race seemed
:54:06. > :54:10.frighteningly close. Harry Grindle Matthews was an inventor from
:54:10. > :54:13.Gloucestershire, renowned for dreaming up futuristic prototype,
:54:13. > :54:17.including an early mobile phone, which he demonstrated at Buckingham
:54:17. > :54:22.Palace. But his most infamous invention was a beam of light, said
:54:22. > :54:28.to be capable of knocking enemy aeroplanes out of the sky. The
:54:28. > :54:33.press called it his death ray. This remarkable footage has never been
:54:33. > :54:37.seen on television before. It shows Matthews testing his death ray,
:54:38. > :54:42.which he claimed could kill rats, detonate gunpowder and stop an
:54:42. > :54:45.engine, all from 60 feet away. After the stalemate of World War
:54:45. > :54:55.One, the press hoped that this sensational new weapon would give
:54:55. > :54:58.
:54:58. > :55:02.Britain the edge. So, on 26th May, 1924, a delegation of academics,
:55:02. > :55:09.people from the military and scientists all came to his
:55:09. > :55:13.laboratory to see his death ray. That is right, yes. So, here it is.
:55:13. > :55:18.This is my death ray, and it is pointing over there at that petrol
:55:18. > :55:21.motor that we're going to knock out. Of course, this is just a mock up
:55:21. > :55:27.of the experiment. And never thought a wastepaper basket could
:55:27. > :55:31.look so sinister. So what have we made? At the bottom would have been
:55:31. > :55:40.the electrical generator. In here, you have a source of ultraviolet
:55:40. > :55:47.light. You get to be him. So I get to fire it. This fits. Three, two,
:55:47. > :55:53.one. Fire. And it goes off, brilliant! The generals on that day
:55:53. > :55:56.witnessed that. We are taking it but he insisted his result was
:55:56. > :56:01.genera -- genuine, the theory that ultraviolet light could ionised the
:56:01. > :56:07.air, creating a path of charged particles capable of conducting
:56:07. > :56:11.electricity. But the War Office suspected he used a hidden table.
:56:11. > :56:15.The military asked him to move the engine, didn't they? Yes, but he
:56:15. > :56:22.said he was not going to move it. That would have made him look a bit
:56:22. > :56:25.dodgy. Yes. Was he faking it? don't think so. It was new
:56:25. > :56:29.technology and he had spent weeks getting the ultraviolet light
:56:29. > :56:33.focused precisely onto this running engine, so any movement would have
:56:33. > :56:37.undermined the demonstration. hype surrounding Matthews rocketed
:56:37. > :56:40.with the release of a film suggesting that a huge death rate
:56:40. > :56:44.could annihilate an entire city. But to the dismay of the public,
:56:44. > :56:49.the War Office rejected it. I have come to Cardiff University to see
:56:49. > :56:54.if they made the right decision. Richard, do you think it is
:56:54. > :57:00.theoretically possible that Grindle Matthews' Death Ray could have
:57:00. > :57:03.worked? Certainly, in principle it is possible to demonstrate. Here we
:57:03. > :57:06.have a high voltage generator. We can show the air being ionised,
:57:06. > :57:13.electrical current passing through the air. That aspect of the
:57:13. > :57:20.experiment is possible. Excellent! You did not warn me about that! Yes,
:57:20. > :57:27.I see your point. It is perfectly possible to create a big fat spark
:57:27. > :57:32.of ionised air. Is it possible to ionised air with like? Because that
:57:32. > :57:41.is the key to Grindle Matthews' machine. Absolutely, I will show
:57:41. > :57:46.you. Fire a laser. There you go. That pinprick is ionised air, being
:57:46. > :57:50.ionised by a laser somewhere. is right. For the machine to work,
:57:50. > :57:55.it would have to go from the death ray all the way up to the aeroplane.
:57:56. > :58:01.Absolutely, a long way, a heck of a lot of power. For about five litres
:58:01. > :58:04.of air, you would need 1.4 million lasers of this size. To reach an
:58:05. > :58:08.aeroplane, you would need a laser the size of a small town. The
:58:08. > :58:14.notion of using light as a weapon was overtaken by other innovations
:58:14. > :58:17.and the death ray never became a reality. Matthews died in 1941. His
:58:17. > :58:25.insistence on secrecy means we will never know whether he was a master
:58:25. > :58:30.show man or a visionary genius. Proper Boy's Own stuff. Father's
:58:30. > :58:35.Day on Sunday. Earlier we asked for pictures of fathers who will be
:58:35. > :58:45.fathers for the first time on this Father's Day. You have got one.
:58:45. > :58:46.
:58:46. > :58:51.This was sent in from Northern Their hair and big beard and the
:58:51. > :58:57.hair of the baby are coming together. This is a beautiful one,
:58:57. > :59:02.sent in by Sally Williams. This is her husband and daughter. Finally,
:59:02. > :59:10.we have had loads, so thank you for all of them. This was sent in by
:59:10. > :59:19.Jenny. Good luck to Rory McIlroy, 10 shots ahead in the US Open
