Second day on the job, Jo. Are you settling in? I am, Matt. Thank you

:00:13.:00:20.

for asking. But I didn't read the small print. There's a bit about

:00:21.:00:25.

smiling. Oh, really? It says, One Show presenters must maintain

:00:26.:00:28.

visible signs of enjoyment at the beginning of each show. Yes, that's

:00:29.:00:31.

very important. I am smiling, Matt, just not on the outside.

:00:32.:00:48.

Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker... And a very smiley

:00:49.:01:00.

Jo Brand! Radiating joy. And there's a genuine reason to smile, Jo,

:01:01.:01:12.

because Alex has started her climb. There she is. That little white dot

:01:13.:01:19.

at the very bottom. That is Alex. We will be following her tonight. To

:01:20.:01:32.

Alex. She will be fine. Alex has been really scared up to now. If you

:01:33.:01:43.

have a picture of you doing something you never thought you

:01:44.:01:47.

would, send them in and we'll send the best ones to Alex. Here is

:01:48.:01:52.

tonight 's guest, overcoming his fears.

:01:53.:02:00.

Here he is. The facetious, the mischievous, the razor sharp, Louis

:02:01.:02:14.

Theroux. Welcome! Have a seat. Tell me. What is the scariest thing you

:02:15.:02:21.

have ever done in one of your shows? Other than being bitten by a dog, I

:02:22.:02:28.

have filmed at prisons, I have filmed at riots. I auditioned for

:02:29.:02:35.

Norwegian television as a singer on a cruise liner. Craig Revel Horwood

:02:36.:02:43.

was one person auditioning me. The boys dried up, the panic I felt. I

:02:44.:02:49.

was trying to seeing, or with a little help from my friends. It was

:02:50.:02:55.

terrible. -- I was trying to seeing, With A Little Help From My

:02:56.:03:11.

Friends. Alex has started her challenge. We were hoping to speak

:03:12.:03:18.

to her live tonight but the start time was moved earlier to give her a

:03:19.:03:23.

chance of reaching her hanging accommodation, which just looks

:03:24.:03:32.

horrendous. And small. You will see all of that later. So, before she

:03:33.:03:36.

stepped foot on the vertical 1200ft high Moonlight Buttress, Alex

:03:37.:03:45.

recorded this message. It is Tuesday morning and it is time for me to

:03:46.:03:49.

face my dear. By the time you're watching this I will already have

:03:50.:03:52.

started climbing that huge rock, which you'll be able to see live

:03:53.:03:55.

pictures of throughout tonight's show. We have already had some

:03:56.:03:58.

problems, putting up the portaledge, which is where I will

:03:59.:04:03.

spend the next two nights up there on the rock. More on that later in

:04:04.:04:11.

the show. Sport Relief fund people all around the world, including

:04:12.:04:16.

those affected by Typhoon Diane. Most families lost absolutely

:04:17.:04:19.

everything and they really do need our help. -- Typhoon Diane. I found

:04:20.:04:27.

out when I visited the Philippines a few weeks ago. Today we are heading

:04:28.:04:34.

out of Tacloban and into the countryside to a village which is

:04:35.:04:39.

known for its coconut tree farming. As we drive along, we get it real

:04:40.:04:48.

sense of the devastation. At 375 miles wide, Typhoon Haiyan hit the

:04:49.:04:52.

Philippines with tremendous force. In a matter of hours, 4 million

:04:53.:04:58.

people were made homeless. Many, like this 52-year-old, face an

:04:59.:05:04.

uncertain future living in makeshift shelters built from debris following

:05:05.:05:10.

the Typhoon. Thank you for letting us come into your house. It is very

:05:11.:05:18.

kind of you. Thank you so much. It is absolutely tiny. How do you

:05:19.:05:27.

cope, living here, the three of you? We lie down and write his side by

:05:28.:05:31.

fight. We can barely move around because there is little space. I get

:05:32.:05:38.

cramp in my leg from not being able to move. Quite a months of living in

:05:39.:05:41.

such cramped conditions is taking its toll. -- for number Amonths. It

:05:42.:05:50.

is difficult for them to do their homework. It is dark in here and

:05:51.:05:57.

there is not much room. His 14-year-old remains hopeful for her

:05:58.:05:58.

future. -- this 14-year-old. This is the spot where they house

:05:59.:06:18.

stood before Typhoon Haiyan struck. It is incredibly tough but can you

:06:19.:06:23.

tried to describe what happened that morning when the Typhoon hit? In the

:06:24.:06:33.

morning, we said, what are we going to do now? Nothing will ever be the

:06:34.:06:38.

same again. Every time I see this place, it reminds me of how good

:06:39.:06:45.

life was everything was gone, just like that, in an instant.

:06:46.:06:52.

Sadly this story is all too common. Everywhere you look like symbols of

:06:53.:07:07.

human tragedy. Today, the small farmers Association are rallying to

:07:08.:07:14.

support the family. Why have you identified Delia and the girls as a

:07:15.:07:19.

family who needs a house built for them? Says she is a widow, she does

:07:20.:07:28.

not have a stable income. The team on recycling word from a handful of

:07:29.:07:32.

the 33 million coconut trees felled in the Typhoon. How would you feel

:07:33.:07:39.

if you had a brand-new house? I feel really happy. Local projects like

:07:40.:07:48.

this one receive funding for essential tools. They desperately

:07:49.:07:52.

need more of the scale of the task ahead to rebuild on the island is

:07:53.:08:00.

fast. It is really hard to get your head around what happened here in

:08:01.:08:05.

terms of geography. As you can see, we are right in the middle of the

:08:06.:08:09.

country. The first thing that really struck me when we came into the

:08:10.:08:13.

house, or what is left of the house, is that the whole floor is

:08:14.:08:19.

covered in these little shells. If you consider that the ocean is about

:08:20.:08:24.

1.5 to two kilometres away, right over there to the left that gives

:08:25.:08:31.

you an idea of the scale and sheer force of this storm.

:08:32.:08:38.

Back on site, I think Crispin and the boys had done a great job.

:08:39.:08:45.

Wonder what they think of my skills. Do you think I am any good at DIY?

:08:46.:08:55.

You need a little practice. It is a final push to get Delia and the

:08:56.:09:00.

girls moved in before nightfall. How do you feel about having a new home?

:09:01.:09:05.

TRANSLATION: It is what I want. It is my dream

:09:06.:09:12.

that living conditions are better. I will not be having a problem with

:09:13.:09:18.

sleeping and my children can study whenever they want. What do you

:09:19.:09:26.

think of the new home? Happy. I am so happy for you. Delia and the

:09:27.:09:30.

girls have been fortunate enough to receive help but there are millions

:09:31.:09:37.

out there who need your help to restore their lives. Here are the

:09:38.:09:42.

details again. And remember Sport Relief supports

:09:43.:10:10.

many other charities, as well as those we have seen working in the

:10:11.:10:14.

Philippines. We are going to try to circle Alex.

:10:15.:10:25.

This is where they are starting to attach their ropes. You can see why

:10:26.:10:33.

they started early. Alex, where are you? Do you think she is having a

:10:34.:10:42.

sit down already? Now, the first episode of your new series, based in

:10:43.:10:54.

LA. It is called City of Dogs. Someone told me he ripped up your

:10:55.:11:00.

Jaguar. You have a very expensive car and he tore up the upholstery?

:11:01.:11:07.

In five minutes. Even the seat belt. Everything was off. Did you buy a

:11:08.:11:21.

new car? That is life. I keep the dog and I throw the car. You have

:11:22.:11:28.

met some very interesting people. I watched a preview with my dogs. I

:11:29.:11:34.

kind of wanted 2 cents... There is a lot of angry barking. Were going

:11:35.:11:45.

crazy, at times. Did they enjoy it? They were getting severely worked

:11:46.:11:48.

up. There are a lot of trouble dogs. It is known as the capital of

:11:49.:11:57.

pampered pooches but this is looking at the deprived dogs who live in the

:11:58.:12:02.

high crime areas and the select few that get adopted into the more

:12:03.:12:08.

comfortable and well off homes. Many of them are very adoptable and fine.

:12:09.:12:19.

Some of them, it is sort of a couple to M Fare Lady story. It is about

:12:20.:12:27.

the limits of how far you can train a dog. Some dogs end up ripping up

:12:28.:12:34.

the people and having to get down. What made you go and make this in

:12:35.:12:41.

LA? Did you think about Battersea dogs? I have been living in LA for

:12:42.:12:48.

the last year. I have learned there is a massive problem, not just with

:12:49.:12:54.

unwanted dogs in dogs homes, but dogs running on the streets. They

:12:55.:13:00.

get put down in their thousands. I have a home in London in a not very

:13:01.:13:07.

posh area. It is a high crime area. You do not see dogs running around

:13:08.:13:14.

in packs. In LA, you do. That sounds terrifying. The whole series is

:13:15.:13:18.

based on it. It is not all about dogs. It was a personal decision

:13:19.:13:28.

based on a lifestyle choice. I have two young children. My wife grew up

:13:29.:13:32.

abroad in a sunnier place than Britain. We thought, while the kids

:13:33.:13:38.

were young enough, we would live overseas in LA for a bit. It is home

:13:39.:13:44.

to a lot of expat Brits and it is always a source of good stories for

:13:45.:13:50.

me. It was a temporary move, just for the fun of it, and we will be

:13:51.:13:57.

coming back later this year. One of your programmes will be about

:13:58.:14:01.

Scientology. You put an online message out to people, asking them

:14:02.:14:08.

to contact you. I do it, yes, on Twitter. The next project I am

:14:09.:14:15.

working on is a feature film, a documentary feature, about

:14:16.:14:19.

Scientology, the Hollywood religion, whose devotees include

:14:20.:14:24.

John Travolta and Tom Cruise. I thought I would try and approach

:14:25.:14:28.

them through Twitter. It felt like the 20 14th thing to do. Have you

:14:29.:14:38.

had a response? So far, a little underwhelming but it is early days.

:14:39.:14:44.

They may be suspicious because Scientology has not really had a

:14:45.:14:51.

good press. Scientology and the BBC have a little bit of history. I am

:14:52.:14:57.

keen for Scientologists out there, who are watching, to know the

:14:58.:15:03.

intention is very much to make a positive piece. There is a lot of

:15:04.:15:10.

Scientology bashing going on. I am sure there are masses of good things

:15:11.:15:17.

that they do. You can see City of Dogs on Sunday night at 9pm on BBC

:15:18.:15:19.

Two. Look what I have discovered the

:15:20.:15:28.

studio lights can do. That a colourful display! But the fact we

:15:29.:15:33.

are going to meet next only sees in black-and-white. He has come up with

:15:34.:15:39.

an amazing way of getting round the problem My name is Neil Harbisson. I

:15:40.:15:45.

have been accepted as a cyborg by the golf. I was born with a

:15:46.:15:48.

condition that means I can only see in black-and-white. As a kid I

:15:49.:15:53.

doubted whether colour existed or not. The reality is you cannot

:15:54.:15:57.

ignore colour. Colour is everywhere. At school I memorised that the sky

:15:58.:16:03.

is blue. The grass is green. And lemons are yellow. But in 2004, my

:16:04.:16:13.

life changed. With other people we developed a device that develops

:16:14.:16:17.

colours into notes. A New World started. Hearing colours changes the

:16:18.:16:23.

way you see everything. I started perceiving colours through sound and

:16:24.:16:28.

the device became a part of my body. Until one day I started hearing

:16:29.:16:32.

colours in my dreams. Then, I understood what being a cyborg

:16:33.:16:37.

meant. It is not the union between the device and my head what converts

:16:38.:16:41.

me into a cyborg but the union between the solve wear and my brain.

:16:42.:16:48.

My body and tech any have united. -- software. The device developed

:16:49.:16:56.

detects a scale of 360. Beautiful landscapes like the sea or nature,

:16:57.:17:01.

they don't sound so good as I expected. I enjoy supermarkets

:17:02.:17:07.

because they sound so colourful, and so stimulating.

:17:08.:17:11.

I enjoy making portraits from hearing the sound of well-known

:17:12.:17:15.

faces, Prince Charles for example, despite what you might think sounds

:17:16.:17:19.

really good. We will see more and more people will start using

:17:20.:17:24.

technology as a part of the body in order to perceive more sense, we

:17:25.:17:28.

will be able to understand better who we are, and in which world we

:17:29.:17:40.

live in. Wow. Neil joins us now. Louis's face, is it nice to hear as

:17:41.:17:47.

Prince Charles? Well, you sound more tonal. It is more different, shades

:17:48.:17:52.

of F sharp. Prince Charles has more like C sharp and F and G. Has more

:17:53.:18:00.

notes. I think my face doesn't sound as good. He is being polite. It is

:18:01.:18:07.

almost like a chord. Yes, each face has different note, the sound of the

:18:08.:18:12.

eyes, the lips, the skin and hair. We all sound duff print. Even twin,

:18:13.:18:17.

our eye, one eye and the other might sound slightly different. Is this,

:18:18.:18:24.

what is that, is that an antenna? That goes inside. Is that

:18:25.:18:29.

permanently attached does it go in your head? Yes, in my skull. If I

:18:30.:18:36.

pulled that, wouldn't it hurt. Don't! Gently. It is like... So

:18:37.:18:46.

this, it is permanent, is it going to be on for the rest of you life?

:18:47.:18:51.

Yes I decided to have a new body part. More people soon will have new

:18:52.:18:57.

body parts that we humans still don't have. I mean this is weird,

:18:58.:19:01.

what happens when that technology progresses, are you going to be

:19:02.:19:06.

stuck in the past? Can you keep, you know? The good thing about having

:19:07.:19:13.

cyborg organs is they will evolve as you get older, you look forward to

:19:14.:19:18.

getting old because your senses and body parts don't degenerate, they

:19:19.:19:25.

get better. What other cyborgs will there be, do you think? We have seen

:19:26.:19:31.

there has been portable technology, there will be wearable technology,

:19:32.:19:34.

people will start using it as part of the body. We will see technology

:19:35.:19:38.

will medium-terming with our body and we, new body part, antenna,

:19:39.:19:45.

tails. What does this sound like? Because it's a colourful studio? It

:19:46.:19:49.

sounds like nightclub, because there is many note, so I feel very

:19:50.:19:55.

stimulating. Do you ever want to turn it off? Would you want to see

:19:56.:19:59.

life in black-and-white? It is the same. To me, colour now is a

:20:00.:20:03.

constant sense and I don't feel I need to turn it off. We could talk

:20:04.:20:07.

about this all night long but we have run out of time. Thank you for

:20:08.:20:11.

coming and showing us this remarkable bit of technology, maybe

:20:12.:20:15.

a glimpse into the future. We are heading into the past for more very

:20:16.:20:20.

strange goings on. . We are indeed. I have got my own props with me.

:20:21.:20:25.

Here we go. Just about to have a film about a mystery. That is a

:20:26.:20:31.

difficult one to work out, isn't it Louis? Here is a riddle for you.

:20:32.:20:38.

What did Sherlock say to his sidekick when he had indigestion? I

:20:39.:20:46.

have no idea. Almen trimy dear Watson.

:20:47.:20:51.

Arthur's Seat. The ancient hill which overlooks Edinburgh has long

:20:52.:20:55.

been a place of mystery and legend. It was a fitting location for a

:20:56.:21:01.

discovery in 1836, which fascinated Edinburgh society. It has baffled

:21:02.:21:08.

historians ever since. It was 17 macabre dolls in tiny coffins found

:21:09.:21:12.

hidden in a cave. They are on display at the National Museum of

:21:13.:21:19.

Scotland. Eerie, aren't they? They were found in June, 1836, in the

:21:20.:21:23.

North East slopes of Arthur's Seat by some school-children, out

:21:24.:21:28.

supposedly rabbiting, there are just eight left but there were originally

:21:29.:21:31.

17. The other nine have disappeared in the mist of time. What exactly --

:21:32.:21:38.

exact I are they? It is possible they were were hand made soldier,

:21:39.:21:44.

wooden soldiers, they are meant to represent burials, because they are

:21:45.:21:49.

individual figures, some of them with the remaining grave clothes on,

:21:50.:21:54.

set into individual coffins. There have been various theories on what

:21:55.:21:58.

they might represent. It has been speculated they are symbolic

:21:59.:22:03.

effigies of sailors lost at sea and the original suggestions linked them

:22:04.:22:08.

to witchcraft. That doesn't hold much water. In witchcraft they

:22:09.:22:12.

tended to be destroyed or pins put in them to effect some effect on the

:22:13.:22:18.

individual. These are well cared for. They are meant to be, trying to

:22:19.:22:24.

look after someone. But a theory propose links Edinburgh's most

:22:25.:22:28.

chilling story to the coffins. This is a beautiful city, but beneath the

:22:29.:22:33.

streets is the hidden world. These are the Edinburgh vault, a series of

:22:34.:22:37.

Chambers formed in the arches of a bridge. In the early 19th century

:22:38.:22:42.

there are a ven, shops, all sorts of businesses town here. -- taverns.

:22:43.:22:49.

These dark and dinghy spaces, lent themselves to more murky activities,

:22:50.:22:55.

perhaps including those of Burke and Hare. The notorious Edinburgh

:22:56.:22:58.

murderers. And there is a fascinating theory

:22:59.:23:05.

that the mysterious dolls are linked to Burke and Hare. Alan Simpson is a

:23:06.:23:11.

former curator at the museum. Who were they? They became notorious in

:23:12.:23:18.

the late 1820, they hit on the idea of killing people, and supplying the

:23:19.:23:24.

bodies to the Edinburgh aNat mists. They killed in total 16 people,

:23:25.:23:29.

their killing spree started by finding a body, and supplying it

:23:30.:23:34.

first. The money was good, so they carried on. A colleague of mine, an

:23:35.:23:39.

American Professor hit on the idea that these 17 little coffins

:23:40.:23:46.

represented the 17 bodies supplied by Burke and Hare. Researches

:23:47.:23:50.

analysed the thread used to Seo the clothes on to the dolls. -- sew the

:23:51.:23:55.

clothes on the dolls. It revealed they were hidden at the

:23:56.:24:00.

same time. One of the threads used was a three ply twine, which was

:24:01.:24:05.

only introduced first in about 1830. If you accept the idea that these

:24:06.:24:10.

are symbolic burial, we are looking for an occasion when there were 17

:24:11.:24:14.

victims. And Burke and Hare supplied 17

:24:15.:24:18.

bodies, to be dissected during lectures. People who made these

:24:19.:24:25.

little coffins were trying to provide a sort of decent burial.

:24:26.:24:30.

That would allow their souls to rest in peace. It is a theory we can

:24:31.:24:35.

never be sure, but it is now the one thought most likely to explain why

:24:36.:24:39.

these strange dolls were hidden in a cave on Arthur's Seat.

:24:40.:24:44.

The very act of burying the dolls must have meant something to

:24:45.:24:51.

somebody. Fascinating to imagine someone beavering away, creating

:24:52.:24:56.

those little dolls, preparing them for a decent burial, that Burke and

:24:57.:25:06.

Hare has denied their victims. Now, if we go to Alex briefly, she

:25:07.:25:12.

is going up that rock face like a young gazelle. She is. She is just

:25:13.:25:18.

in that group. Go the other way. Go the other way. It a good job they

:25:19.:25:22.

didn't fall off. Shall we find out what the plan of action was for

:25:23.:25:29.

today? Let me introduce you to the man who is hopefully going to help

:25:30.:25:35.

me get to the top. Andy Kirkpatrick. Feeling nervous this morning. I am

:25:36.:25:40.

fineful I am fine. How are you? A bit nervous. Talk me through how the

:25:41.:25:45.

next two-and-a-half days is going to run We will go across the river,

:25:46.:25:50.

that is ice cold and then we will get to the two white dots and free

:25:51.:25:56.

climb a third of the way up the pillar, so 150 metres, until there

:25:57.:26:01.

is a small knob of rock, a safety guy is checking that out. We will

:26:02.:26:07.

spend the night in a port Helen. We have had experience putting this up.

:26:08.:26:14.

It is like assembling it while hanging out your window. You did

:26:15.:26:18.

fairly well. That is when you were not tired, so it will be different

:26:19.:26:22.

tonight, you will be fairly shattered I think. The day after we
