:00:22. > :00:26.Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker and Alex Jones.
:00:26. > :00:30.Tonight's guest has been having nightmares because he is so nervous
:00:30. > :00:34.about what he has got to do next week. Not only is he carrying the
:00:34. > :00:42.Olympic torch, he is doing it in front of 8 million people. He is
:00:42. > :00:46.the East End are from EastEnders, Perry Fenwick. Good to see you.
:00:46. > :00:54.Well come back. First of all, how come you have 8 million people
:00:54. > :00:59.watching? Because it is part of EastEnders. It is kind of life, my
:00:59. > :01:04.life, fiction blurring at the moment. They are going to do this
:01:04. > :01:11.live? Yes, we have shot 20 minutes of an episode and the last 10
:01:11. > :01:15.minutes will go out live. It will go along with the torch relay.
:01:15. > :01:21.probably won't help, we have this wonderful clip of the wonderful
:01:21. > :01:26.Sally Gunnell. Here she goes, a little pothole in the road. She
:01:26. > :01:32.takes a little tumble. Being the superb athlete that she is, she
:01:32. > :01:37.regains it. It sounds terrible, but it has taken the heat off me a bit.
:01:37. > :01:44.And the flame has gone out previously. Exactly. You are
:01:44. > :01:48.genuinely nervous? I am like that, I really am. There is another big
:01:48. > :01:54.story line coming up for Billy, he is going to be a great grandfather
:01:54. > :01:58.at 53 years old. How does this make you feel? Old, I suppose. For want
:01:58. > :02:02.of a better answer. Tonight, we want to scrutinise the EastEnders
:02:02. > :02:07.script writers. How many great grandparents are there out there in
:02:07. > :02:12.their 50s watching right now? Send us a picture of you with your great
:02:12. > :02:18.grandchild and tell us how old you are. When Queen Victoria wanted a
:02:18. > :02:23.private beach, she simply bought one. It has just reopened. It is on
:02:23. > :02:33.the Isle of Wight. When John Bunn from West Sussex decided he needed
:02:33. > :02:35.
:02:35. > :02:42.When the sun shines during the Great British summer, people in
:02:42. > :02:47.their droves flocked to our beaches. But today is not one of those days.
:02:47. > :02:52.Howling wind and rain aside, we like being beside the seaside. But
:02:52. > :02:55.for centuries, we have had to fit our homes, livelihood, even
:02:55. > :03:05.holidays around the floods and the erosion of our ever-changing
:03:05. > :03:05.
:03:05. > :03:13.Take South Sea on the south coast of England. A popular summer
:03:13. > :03:17.holiday destination. Erosion here is a big problem. In places, up to
:03:17. > :03:23.14 metres of prime holiday coastline has been washed out to
:03:23. > :03:33.sea in the last 10 years. As the old adage says, Time and tide waits
:03:33. > :03:33.
:03:33. > :03:38.for no man. That is unless the man is John Bunn. This modern-day King
:03:38. > :03:45.Canute has an empire of this, and is spending millions trying to keep
:03:45. > :03:50.back the sea. What erosion have you had? We have lost about 15 metres
:03:50. > :03:55.since the 80s. It was becoming accelerated, we lost quite a large
:03:55. > :04:01.it in 2008. -- quite a lot. Our sole concern is the sea and if we
:04:01. > :04:04.have a bridge, we have a major problem. We are putting in 14
:04:04. > :04:09.million-plus pounds to protect the business and build what will be a
:04:09. > :04:14.fantastic beach amenity and facility after that. The beach that
:04:14. > :04:18.pre-tax John's holiday park from the sea is in trouble. What -- the
:04:18. > :04:22.beach that protects. What is happening here is called Long
:04:22. > :04:27.children. Every time they wave comes in, it washes pebbles up the
:04:27. > :04:32.beach -- it is called Longshaw drift. But because the waves are
:04:32. > :04:37.coming at an angle, you go up the beach at an angle. Then you are
:04:37. > :04:41.tracked back down, but straight down. Gradually over time, you do a
:04:41. > :04:45.zig-zag up and down the beach, gradually moving in that direction.
:04:45. > :04:52.Now imagine that the whole beach is doing that at the same time.
:04:52. > :04:57.Eventually, this speech will go that way. John is going to put the
:04:57. > :05:05.old beach back where it was. But how do you go about building a
:05:05. > :05:10.beach? Lots of machinery and rocks, that is how. What is going on?
:05:10. > :05:15.are placing something like 360,000 cubic metres of shingle and about
:05:16. > :05:20.100,000 tonnes of rock. What is the big chain of sausages for? This is
:05:20. > :05:25.how we deliver the shingle to the beach. It is stony and Sandy, we
:05:25. > :05:30.get it from bank's offshore. We get about 3,000 cubic metres of sand
:05:30. > :05:36.into the ship. The ship comes over do here, connects to the floating
:05:36. > :05:40.pipeline and pumps it ashore. Then we read profile that with
:05:40. > :05:45.bulldozers and excavators to get the shape we need. That is how we
:05:45. > :05:49.build a beach. Are you concerned this will have to be done over and
:05:49. > :05:54.over again? That is the thing about beaches like this. You can't just
:05:54. > :05:58.walk away from it. It needs to be maintained. We will monitor the
:05:58. > :06:03.movement of the beach over the coming months and years and we will
:06:03. > :06:09.be recommending how the caravan park should redistribute the
:06:09. > :06:12.shingle. The weather is doing its best to eroding coastline today,
:06:12. > :06:16.but in a few short weeks there will be a brand new beach here, for
:06:16. > :06:21.everyone to enjoy and build sandcastles on.
:06:21. > :06:26.Fascinating. The last time we met, Perry, it was quite exciting for us.
:06:26. > :06:31.We were going to be on EastEnders. We have to point out, we didn't
:06:31. > :06:36.realise it was going to be red button. A little bit disappointed.
:06:36. > :06:41.You should have talked to your agent. If people want to see it on
:06:41. > :06:46.the red button, how can they go about it? After the show tonight,
:06:46. > :06:51.at the titles come up, a voice will announce to press your red button.
:06:51. > :06:57.Give it a couple of seconds and it starts. What is the story? It is
:06:57. > :07:03.part of your night. It is the whole thing, it is me and Billy, we are
:07:03. > :07:12.becoming the same person. He it is nice to have been here as Paris.
:07:12. > :07:16.Exactly, but I am still thinking of belief. -- Billy. Billy is dreading
:07:16. > :07:20.the worse things that can happen to him. Trousers falling down, all of
:07:20. > :07:27.these sorts of nightmares, which consequently I have been having as
:07:27. > :07:33.well. -- coincidence live. It is about him trying to meet up with
:07:33. > :07:43.other torch-bearers. He has a mad cab driver driving him around play
:07:43. > :07:49.by on it jelly. -- Omid Djalili. is kind of a dream? You have
:07:49. > :07:53.brought it with you for us to see. Are you sitting comfortably? Can we
:07:53. > :07:59.get security in here. You are all right, I will see myself out. Once
:07:59. > :08:09.I am gone, you can do it again, can't you? We are live, you idiot.
:08:09. > :08:16.
:08:16. > :08:20.There you go. That is possibly the most surreal moment of my life,
:08:20. > :08:25.watching myself be Billy on The One Show, being on The One Show
:08:25. > :08:30.watching myself do that. I am going mad! That took ages. For that tiny
:08:30. > :08:34.bit. It will be very good. As well as stellar performances from us,
:08:34. > :08:41.Omid Djalili is in it with you. He did it in a different style, he
:08:41. > :08:45.didn't script to the -- stick to the script. Sometimes. He is
:08:45. > :08:51.brilliant at improvisation. He is a very funny man. We kind of Clegg,
:08:51. > :08:55.worked really well. He said, are you OK if I say this? -- we kind of
:08:55. > :09:05.collector. He came out with a lot of funny stuff. -- we kind of
:09:05. > :09:11.There is a great section where you jump back into his cab. Are you an
:09:11. > :09:21.athlete? No. I didn't think so, it it is your chest, it is like a
:09:21. > :09:25.
:09:25. > :09:29.pigeon. Your face just says, I am a It is seven minutes of live
:09:29. > :09:33.television. You have timed it so that the torch should take 30
:09:33. > :09:38.seconds to get around the square. Yeah, apparently you have to run a
:09:39. > :09:46.lot slower. If I ate jog around, it would take at me about half a
:09:46. > :09:52.minute. -- if I jogged around. it part of a scene, having got
:09:52. > :09:59.lines? There is a lot more staff than just me carrying the torch.
:09:59. > :10:03.Well something go wrong? I hope not. I mean in the story line. I don't
:10:03. > :10:08.know, I am starting to realise why they put my character to do it,
:10:09. > :10:14.because I think most people think something will go on. I'll be happy
:10:14. > :10:19.at 9:30pm on Monday. He is genuinely nervous. You will be
:10:19. > :10:27.great. As Perry, you grew up very close to where the Olympic Park is.
:10:27. > :10:32.What was life like? It was a different place. You still had the
:10:32. > :10:38.docks. Most of the area of Stratford, for years, it was a
:10:38. > :10:43.wasteland. Have you been back? I am a big West Ham fan. When I go
:10:43. > :10:48.to see the team, if I get out a bit early, I drive around the old
:10:48. > :10:51.haunts. By incredible transformation. It is quite amazing.
:10:51. > :11:00.We will talk more about your Olympic nightmare later on! Piling
:11:00. > :11:04.If you are having a ready meal, you might wonder why the picture on the
:11:05. > :11:09.box does not bear a resemblance to what is on your plate. You don't
:11:09. > :11:14.have to want any more. One Show reporter reveals the secrets of One
:11:14. > :11:18.Show at -- of food photography. Chefs and foodies say we eat with
:11:18. > :11:22.our eyes first. That is why the world of food photography is big
:11:22. > :11:25.business. Glossy images of tempting treats are everywhere. The people
:11:25. > :11:35.charged with attempting our taste buds are food photographers and
:11:35. > :11:38.
:11:38. > :11:43.They have agreed to let me and you want some of the club and sometimes
:11:43. > :11:46.quite bizarre secrets of food photography. Everyone will
:11:46. > :11:55.recognise this as a modern digital camera. They might not recognise
:11:55. > :12:01.this, tell me about your kit. like the old-fashioned view finders.
:12:01. > :12:10.It is made for digital. Does it produce enormous photos? They are
:12:10. > :12:16.quite big, this is 60 million pixels. That doesn't come cheap,
:12:16. > :12:20.the camera set-up costs north of �60,000. Preparing the food for the
:12:20. > :12:24.camera borders on artistry. have to understand how food behaves,
:12:24. > :12:28.what it does under light and with certain chemicals. I try to be as
:12:28. > :12:32.natural as possible, a double as possible. It has to look really
:12:33. > :12:38.appetising and if it doesn't, forget it. Remaining appetising
:12:38. > :12:41.under studio conditions means a few tricks. Glycerin, often used as a
:12:41. > :12:47.preservative or sweetener, is sprayed on salad leaves to make
:12:48. > :12:52.them look more fresh. Smashed glass doubles as eyes that one of The
:12:52. > :12:58.Mall. Cold golden syrup holds sauce or gravy in a lovely shape. For
:12:58. > :13:02.today's shoot, fillet steak, which has to be the right shape. When I
:13:02. > :13:11.bought this, it was thick one end and thin the other. I have put it
:13:11. > :13:19.in some clingfilm and skewered the answer it is really tight for --
:13:19. > :13:23.the end and so it is really tight. It is vital that the state retains
:13:24. > :13:28.its firmness and doesn't look dry. There are cunning ways of ending --
:13:28. > :13:38.adding that just growled colour, brushing with yeast extract and sh
:13:38. > :13:40.
:13:40. > :13:44.searing the outside with a blowtorch -- just grilled colour.
:13:44. > :13:49.am going to shoot the tomatoes and the fillet of beef. You are
:13:49. > :13:52.building it layer by layer? Yes, because we can't get everything in
:13:52. > :13:56.perspective at the same time. finished photograph is combined of
:13:56. > :14:00.three shots, combined digitally on the computer. The style is stark
:14:00. > :14:04.and minimal, which is in vogue and quite different from some of
:14:04. > :14:09.Darren's more traditional work. Now for pudding. You might be tempted
:14:09. > :14:13.to try to eat the subject, but beware. All is not what it seems.
:14:13. > :14:18.This is fake ice-cream, made from margarine and icing sugar. The
:14:18. > :14:24.brilliant thing about it is that it doesn't mould. You appear to be
:14:24. > :14:28.washing ice-cream. Yes. Trish takes the fruity bits from the real ice-
:14:28. > :14:32.cream and puts them in with her fate ice-cream mix, along with a
:14:32. > :14:37.little food colouring. The result is absolutely convincing. With the
:14:37. > :14:41.ice-cream ready, time for the cherry pie. By now, it won't
:14:41. > :14:46.surprise you that even that is not quite what it seems. We are going
:14:46. > :14:50.to deconstruct the pie, then reconstruct it on set. Because at
:14:50. > :14:53.the moment, the pie is filled with tissue paper. I was going to say it
:14:53. > :14:57.doesn't look a lot like cherries underneath. The crust is
:14:58. > :15:01.transferred with surgical precision on to the filling. We can put the
:15:02. > :15:06.chair is exactly where we want them and make the sauce come out where
:15:06. > :15:10.we want. I have never met a man with more
:15:10. > :15:14.eye for detail. Cotton wool soaked in boiling water
:15:14. > :15:19.is placed behind PI to create the right pattern of rising stint --
:15:19. > :15:24.behind the pipe. We have been about seven-and-a-half hours trying to
:15:24. > :15:26.achieve two photographs. It might seem like a long time, but
:15:26. > :15:31.comparing this shock waves are finished photograph, you can
:15:31. > :15:36.clearly see that every painstaking second is worth it -- comparing
:15:36. > :15:46.this shot with our finished product. I thought I took a lot of care in
:15:46. > :15:50.my photography and it turns out I We made up some of the Earl's
:15:50. > :15:55.Croome we saw in that photograph, and we have real ice-cream as well,
:15:56. > :16:03.and we will be asking you to taste one of them. There is the spoon,
:16:03. > :16:13.you don't have to eat off the plate. That one. I'm not sure after eating
:16:13. > :16:18.
:16:18. > :16:25.that. One of them is margarine and sugar. No, that is ice-cream.
:16:25. > :16:35.Drive that one. Oh, no, that they scream. I think I'm going mad
:16:35. > :16:44.
:16:44. > :16:51.enough at the moment! That fooled everyone. The fun you have on a
:16:51. > :16:56.Tuesday night, I'm not normally here. This whole scenario, this
:16:56. > :17:01.suggests it is all right to lie when it comes to advertising food.
:17:01. > :17:06.We checked with the advertising authority, and they said you can do
:17:06. > :17:11.what you like, as long as you aren't trying to deceive anybody.
:17:11. > :17:17.For example, if you use margarine and it doesn't melt under the
:17:17. > :17:21.lights, that is fine as long as it is not being used to deceive. Most
:17:21. > :17:31.of the time There is no point because it is harder to come up
:17:31. > :17:32.
:17:32. > :17:37.with something that looks like it. We have three burgers as well.
:17:37. > :17:42.all bought at the same time, and put them against her photographic
:17:42. > :17:47.versions. They all said the same thing - we don't use anything other
:17:47. > :17:54.than the real ingredients and then photographed them to the best of
:17:54. > :17:59.their advantage. They do not mislead. They do things like poke
:17:59. > :18:06.the ingredients to the front. McDonald's went one stage further
:18:06. > :18:13.and put that thing on mind showing how they do this with the burgers,
:18:13. > :18:17.using a blowtorch to melt the cheese, and they even inject tomato
:18:17. > :18:22.ketchup to get it into exactly the right place. They just happen to
:18:22. > :18:32.place it more carefully. Purposefully being brutally honest
:18:32. > :18:33.
:18:33. > :18:39.about the whole scenario. Yes, they know that the consumer is rather
:18:39. > :18:44.savvy. The question is are they trying to deceive us? You would
:18:44. > :18:50.have to be pretty dumb if you thought they weren't going to do
:18:50. > :18:54.that. The bottom-line is don't forget, they want your money.
:18:54. > :19:02.have done a lot of adverts in the past, and you have to use all sorts
:19:02. > :19:08.of stuff like this, but that is clotted cream. Yes, I did an advert
:19:09. > :19:15.years ago and I had to drink that. What is Libya in the Old Vic?
:19:15. > :19:21.don't like that. I think it is non- alcoholic lager. You never see me
:19:21. > :19:27.with a pint, I just have a bottle with lemonade in it. That is the
:19:27. > :19:31.image gone! Knowing that you are financially securing times of
:19:31. > :19:35.trouble provides some comfort for family members being diagnosed with
:19:35. > :19:41.a terminal illness. As far as insurance policies are concerned,
:19:41. > :19:47.you have got to make sure you have the right kind, as Wendy Robbins
:19:47. > :19:51.found out. Nearly a year ago, this couple got some terrible news.
:19:51. > :19:59.Doctors told Michael he had motor neuron disease, a progressive and
:19:59. > :20:06.terminal condition that damages the nervous system. What kind of
:20:06. > :20:14.symptoms did you start getting? was his speech. Roundabout last
:20:14. > :20:20.summer, his speech was very slurred. If you like, he sounded drunk, but
:20:20. > :20:26.he wasn't. It is affecting the muscles in his mouth. He can't chew,
:20:26. > :20:34.he has difficulty swallowing, he can joke very easily. His muscles
:20:34. > :20:39.are dying. The cruellest thing is there is no cure. Mike and Debbie
:20:39. > :20:44.do have life insurance which will pay out �240,000 should Michael Di,
:20:45. > :20:48.enough to clear the mortgage on their home in Essex. The policy
:20:48. > :20:53.also covers terminal illness, meaning that if one of them was
:20:53. > :20:57.told by the doctor that if they had less than 12 months to live, the
:20:57. > :21:05.life cover would be paid out early. One less thing for them to worry
:21:05. > :21:08.about, right? Wrong. The trouble is doctors can't give a confident
:21:08. > :21:13.prediction about his life expectancy. Because they can't be
:21:13. > :21:18.sure he has less than 12 months to live, the policy will not be paid
:21:18. > :21:23.early. I don't understand why the insurance company can't give a
:21:23. > :21:28.little. I want my husband to live as long as possible. Why have they
:21:28. > :21:34.put me in a position where I have got to prove he will be dead in 12
:21:34. > :21:41.months? Michael is moving full-time at the moment to pay the mortgage,
:21:41. > :21:47.does he have to work that hard? he does. If they paid out, it would
:21:47. > :21:52.make life easier and he would have the choice not to go to work. It is
:21:52. > :21:56.not a good situation to be in at the moment. The policy is with
:21:56. > :22:03.Scottish Provident. The terms and conditions to say the terminal
:22:03. > :22:08.illness benefit will only apply if the policyholder is diagnosed with
:22:08. > :22:14.less than 12 months to live. The Motor neurone disease Association
:22:14. > :22:19.says this is a problem when you have an unpredictable illness.
:22:19. > :22:24.Motor neurone disease is a terminal illness. It may be 12 months, 14
:22:25. > :22:28.months, six months, but it is terminal, and families will be
:22:28. > :22:36.going through a very tough time and need as much help and support as
:22:36. > :22:41.possible. A bit of latitude in terms of understanding the meaning
:22:41. > :22:46.of terminal illness helps. In this case Scottish Provident have not
:22:46. > :22:50.broken any rules by turning down the claim. The family would have to
:22:50. > :22:54.have chosen a different kind of policy to be covered. If someone
:22:54. > :22:59.wanted a guarantee they would get a payout when they became on well,
:22:59. > :23:05.what kind of policy should they be taking out? It is going to be a
:23:05. > :23:09.critical illness policy. They have a series of core benefits.
:23:09. > :23:13.Alternatively, if you want something which will pay out an
:23:13. > :23:18.income when you can't work any more because you are sick, you might
:23:18. > :23:24.want an income benefit. Those contracts will be more expensive,
:23:24. > :23:28.but at least you have peace of mind you will get something for it.
:23:28. > :23:33.Scottish Covenant told us they appreciate this is a very difficult
:23:33. > :23:40.time for the family and that they will assess the claim again, should
:23:40. > :23:45.the medical opinion about Michael's life-expectancy change. My greatest
:23:45. > :23:51.worry is Michael. He shouldn't feel obligated to go to work every day.
:23:51. > :23:59.He is dying, he has got limited time. It is time we should be
:23:59. > :24:04.spending together. We wish Michael and Debbie all the best. Perry, you
:24:04. > :24:10.are an East End boy, which is not famed for its very wildlife, but we
:24:10. > :24:19.have a quiz for you. Can you work out what these tracks are from? Are
:24:19. > :24:27.they the ghostly poor Prince of Little Willy? Or a do they signal
:24:28. > :24:33.the return of Wellard from the other side? This week we are on the
:24:33. > :24:38.Ashby Canal in Leicestershire, showing this family the best of
:24:38. > :24:43.canal Wildlife on their holiday. Right below the towpath we settled
:24:43. > :24:50.the camera to find out what was moving around on the edge of the
:24:50. > :24:54.canal in the dark. Now is the time to see if there are any visitors.
:24:54. > :24:59.The sand trap was a complete success. Can you see the
:25:00. > :25:03.footprints? These happened while you were asleep on the narrow vote.
:25:03. > :25:11.Would you like to change your mind about what animal it might have
:25:11. > :25:21.been? Yes, I think a fox. No, I am going to stick with a badger.
:25:21. > :25:24.
:25:24. > :25:30.the toes. Five toes. That tells me that your mum was right. A fox was
:25:30. > :25:37.a very good guess, but normally you would see four toes. Would you like
:25:37. > :25:44.to see what we caught on the cameras last night? Yes. This is
:25:44. > :25:53.the animal - you were right, it is badgers. So have you seen them
:25:53. > :25:58.before? I haven't, no. How many badgers live down the hole?
:25:58. > :26:05.Generally a family is between six and 10, but that is one of the
:26:05. > :26:10.biggest badger setts I have ever seen. How many did you count?
:26:10. > :26:15.think there are probably at least a dozen, maybe more, and they have
:26:15. > :26:23.the most amazing sense of smell. Their sense of smell is 800 times
:26:23. > :26:33.better than yours. I think it can probably smell the camera. Then
:26:33. > :26:42.suddenly, watch this... It starts to lick the camera. Very impressive
:26:42. > :26:47.neighbours, just a metre or two from the towpath. One of the most
:26:47. > :26:54.dramatic features of the can now is this tunnel. It may not seem the
:26:54. > :27:04.most obvious place for wildlife watching, but who is up for a
:27:04. > :27:05.
:27:05. > :27:15.spider hunt? I am. This is 230 metres long, extremely dark, and
:27:15. > :27:24.
:27:24. > :27:30.the perfect home for a cava spider. -- cave spider. They are big,
:27:30. > :27:40.aren't they? It looks like one of them came out of one of the pom-pom
:27:40. > :27:40.
:27:40. > :27:50.things. These are the spiders' Sacks. We want to find a big fat
:27:50. > :27:53.
:27:53. > :28:03.female. That one! She is good. Pete is trying to catch one with little
:28:03. > :28:07.
:28:07. > :28:12.success, but luckily we have brought along the super spider
:28:12. > :28:22.sucker. This one has a swollen abdomen, and she will be building
:28:22. > :28:26.
:28:26. > :28:31.herself MX- -- an egg sack and she may lay more than 100 eggs. The
:28:31. > :28:34.spiders will spend their whole lives in total darkness. The next
:28:35. > :28:40.time you are travelling through these tunnels, you will be looking
:28:40. > :28:47.out for them, won't you? Make sure they don't land on your head.
:28:47. > :28:54.Tomorrow I will be planning a stake out for an elusive swimmer.
:28:54. > :29:02.Talking of happy families, earlier on we mentioned that Perry's
:29:02. > :29:09.character to Billy will be becoming a grandfather. We asked you for
:29:09. > :29:16.photographs. This is Christine Phillips' parents with their great
