Everyone knows that Scotland has chosen to stay in the UK.

:00:00.:00:09.

Actually, he?s right, because Diane and Kenny Andrew here

:00:10.:00:13.

They are about to find out the result live on The One Show.

:00:14.:00:38.

Hello and welcome to the united One Show with the wonderfully

:00:39.:00:41.

The emphatically English Chris Evans.

:00:42.:00:45.

Our Northern irreplaceable Irish assistant producer, Sarah Carson.

:00:46.:00:51.

And let's cut to the chase - the sublimely Scottish John Hannah!

:00:52.:01:01.

I -- John did not get to vote. Nobody who does not live in Scotland

:01:02.:01:14.

got to vote. I felt very annoyed at the people don't live in Scotland

:01:15.:01:23.

got to tell people how to vote. What about the rest of your family? They

:01:24.:01:31.

are in Lanarkshire. We never really talked about it. We had a disaster

:01:32.:01:37.

with my dad on Monday. He fell down the stairs. That superseded anything

:01:38.:01:43.

else. Did they get to the polling stations? I don't know. We only

:01:44.:01:49.

talked about my dad. East Kilbride is part of South Lanarkshire. They

:01:50.:02:00.

voted resoundingly No. 45.3% was the Yes vote -- No vote. That surprises

:02:01.:02:10.

me. It surprised me to be honest! Alex Salmond has resigned. How do

:02:11.:02:16.

you feel about that? It would be nice of David Cameron to follow

:02:17.:02:20.

suit. One of the things we have learned about this is that 97% of

:02:21.:02:23.

the electorate in Scotland voted because they were not happy with

:02:24.:02:30.

Westminster. We all right being together but Westminster is really

:02:31.:02:34.

bugging everybody. It is corrupt, it is bloated, it is just wrong. If the

:02:35.:02:40.

English electorate, if the Welsh electorate had the chance to vote on

:02:41.:02:44.

change in how we were governed by Westminster, everybody would say

:02:45.:02:47.

let's get rid of them all. Just dissolve the Government. We should

:02:48.:02:54.

all go independent. I had an idea coming in here were thought they

:02:55.:02:58.

could just take a lottery worth 500 random people get picked the year to

:02:59.:03:02.

become politicians. They could not do any worse than this lot, could

:03:03.:03:10.

they? If you are brand-new as an MP, or a member of the cabinet, or Prime

:03:11.:03:15.

Minister, you are following somebody who has been doing it for a 4 years

:03:16.:03:19.

and you have never done before. A complete beginner gets to learn on

:03:20.:03:23.

the job. They work within the system. They are working at having a

:03:24.:03:28.

career. That is where politics is lost its way. There are people in

:03:29.:03:32.

there who are having their career. They're looking after their self

:03:33.:03:37.

interests. They are self-serving are they there because they want to do

:03:38.:03:40.

good, or are they there because it is a pretty decent job? You get

:03:41.:03:45.

expenses, you can pay off your mum's house, your house. It is your

:03:46.:03:52.

opinion, and you are entitled to it. Weir thank you very much.

:03:53.:04:03.

Welcome to Newsnight! We have two passionate Scottish voters who still

:04:04.:04:07.

do not know the result. One voted Yes and one voted No. They are

:04:08.:04:12.

married. They are Diane and Kenny Andrew. They travelled down from

:04:13.:04:17.

Glasgow to London last night and have been in complete isolation

:04:18.:04:21.

since. They were in the Langham Hotel across the road last night. No

:04:22.:04:26.

TV, radio or mobile phones. Then they were escorted to the The One

:04:27.:04:30.

Show HQ. Throughout the day they were kept entertained with board

:04:31.:04:47.

games and music. Rock 'n' roll does not work in isolation. It needs to

:04:48.:04:51.

be Wembley Stadium. Not in isolation. Later in the show we are

:04:52.:04:57.

going to take them out of isolation and ask them what they think has

:04:58.:05:00.

happened and then tell them what has happened. It was Diane who voted Yes

:05:01.:05:06.

for independence, which is against the overall female trend, and Kenny

:05:07.:05:08.

who voted No. Angela Rippon was up at the crack of

:05:09.:05:13.

dawn this morning to board the 05:00 train from Manchester to Glasgow,

:05:14.:05:16.

as bleary-eyed travellers waited to discover the news

:05:17.:05:19.

the whole country was waiting for. I would not normally relish being

:05:20.:05:28.

booked onto a 5 AM train but on such a historic day, who could resist? As

:05:29.:05:39.

this train hurtles towards Scotland and a decision which, whichever way

:05:40.:05:44.

it goes will change the future of the country forever, there is an air

:05:45.:05:53.

of sleepy cam. What verdict are travellers anticipating? Which way

:05:54.:05:56.

are you hoping the vote will go? I am hoping yes. It is the whole

:05:57.:06:02.

independence thing. You think it would be a great future for

:06:03.:06:09.

Scotland? Yes. I am Welsh. We have our own Parliament. I think it is a

:06:10.:06:12.

good idea that they govern themselves. What sort of reaction do

:06:13.:06:18.

you think you will get from people? I have been told there would be a

:06:19.:06:22.

lot of partying tonight. I think it will be a Yes. We're over the

:06:23.:06:27.

border. The train is filling up. Let's go find out what people are

:06:28.:06:36.

thinking. You know what the decision is.

:06:37.:06:42.

Scotland has voted No. You wanted Yes. You disappointed? A wee bit. I

:06:43.:06:52.

voted Yes. When you look at a lot of the poverty and people relying on

:06:53.:06:55.

food banks and things like that, in terms of things like that it was

:06:56.:06:59.

time for a change. I'm quite relieved, actually. You voted No?

:07:00.:07:10.

Yes. I thought they were too many risks. Not being able to have a job.

:07:11.:07:15.

Not being able to have the NHS and things like that. I am happy to

:07:16.:07:20.

still be part of the union. It is the best for Scotland.

:07:21.:07:27.

It is disappointing. I have been active in the Yes campaign since the

:07:28.:07:31.

start. It has given the establishment a shake. I am proud of

:07:32.:07:40.

how involved everybody has become. It has really got me into politics.

:07:41.:07:45.

There would have been a lot of hard work ahead of us if we were to be

:07:46.:07:49.

successful. I am disappointed to not have the chance to be able to pick

:07:50.:07:55.

up the shovel and start working on that. Disappointed with the result.

:07:56.:08:05.

James, how about you? I voted No. You voted against each other and

:08:06.:08:11.

your friends? We are not friends any more. It is a muted arrival in

:08:12.:08:16.

Glasgow. There are some who say it was the right decision. Others are

:08:17.:08:20.

bitterly disappointed. Overriding that is the feeling that we in this

:08:21.:08:23.

together from here on in. Indeed.

:08:24.:08:25.

But now let?s throw live to Sarah Mack, who is live for us in Glasgow.

:08:26.:08:29.

Sarah, the majority of people in Glasgow voted for independence.

:08:30.:08:31.

And along with the news that Alex Salmond has resigned,

:08:32.:08:34.

Well, the mood is slightly tense this evening. You join me in George

:08:35.:08:47.

Square. Emotions are running high. It has become a bit of a hub for

:08:48.:08:51.

both campaigns. We have witnessed a couple of classes. There has been

:08:52.:08:56.

some hustle and bustle. Hopefully we will not have to run. The yes voters

:08:57.:09:03.

did not get the result they wanted. They are dejected and disappointed.

:09:04.:09:06.

Last night I spent the night with voters in Edinburgh.

:09:07.:09:12.

So the polls have just closed and while most people have gone home to

:09:13.:09:16.

catch the results, some dedicated Scots, and I am about to join them,

:09:17.:09:20.

have decided to spend all night witnessing Scotland's future unfold

:09:21.:09:30.

in the local pub. What strikes me immediately is that the Yes voters

:09:31.:09:35.

are out in force. Why have you come macro to the pub? To see the vote.

:09:36.:09:44.

If it was a No, how will you react? I don't want to think about it right

:09:45.:09:49.

now. Disillusioned. It will be tough to take. The first results are in.

:09:50.:09:58.

What was a very lively pub is now very subdued. I think the Yes

:09:59.:10:05.

campaigners hope a result goes their way quite soon. And our later and

:10:06.:10:12.

Dundee and Glasgow do go their way. Now it has gone back the other way.

:10:13.:10:19.

It is real edge of the seat stuff. I started off with a bit of

:10:20.:10:24.

anticipation. I will stick with it. Where were the no voters? Which way

:10:25.:10:30.

did you vote? That is secret. I voted Yes. 100% Yes. Nearly half the

:10:31.:10:41.

population of Scotland do want change. That cannot be ignored.

:10:42.:10:49.

So the majority of votes have decided to stay with the union. We

:10:50.:10:53.

are in George Square. It is getting quite tense. Both sides of the

:10:54.:10:59.

campaign are fronting up to each other. Just speaking to some people

:11:00.:11:04.

standing around, one girl said she came down because she heard it was

:11:05.:11:07.

going to be a celebration and a demonstration. She is feeling quite

:11:08.:11:13.

frightened. Another lady says she finds this scene heartbreaking.

:11:14.:11:16.

People are very passionate about this issue. We have been told we

:11:17.:11:21.

have two men, recover, unite and move on. Hopefully we can do this

:11:22.:11:25.

and this will all end peacefully this evening.

:11:26.:11:31.

We're sorry about the guy in the background. Nothing we can do about

:11:32.:11:36.

that. Earlier in the show John said he was not allowed to vote. This

:11:37.:11:41.

film would suggest otherwise. I have been inside but I cannot

:11:42.:11:49.

decide. Who are you voting for? You cannot overthink it. When I go into

:11:50.:11:55.

a restaurant and look at the menu, I make up my mind. Tiramisu. Then the

:11:56.:12:01.

waiter comes over and a golfer sticky toffee pudding.

:12:02.:12:16.

-- I go for. You are not going to tell us how you voted. But would you

:12:17.:12:21.

have been in any kind of dilemma? Was straight choice? Yes, I party

:12:22.:12:28.

didn't go that far because I did not have a vote and it was not a debate

:12:29.:12:34.

I followed in any depth. In your heart you wanted to be an

:12:35.:12:37.

independent country. You want to be able to feel as if it can move

:12:38.:12:42.

forward and not necessarily be governed by the corrupt, bloated

:12:43.:12:50.

cops of Westminster. We will move on to check off in a moment! Which is

:12:51.:12:55.

half as dramatic as this. -- Chekhov. Moving swiftly on to

:12:56.:13:06.

Chekhov, you would think... Your back on stage for the first time in

:13:07.:13:10.

six years. You are back in Uncle Vanya. The first time you did

:13:11.:13:19.

Chekhov was about 20 years ago? You were 22. We have the programmer

:13:20.:13:24.

here. You are the same age as the guy who has written a new adaptation

:13:25.:13:29.

of what you are doing. This was part of the Royal Scottish Academy of

:13:30.:13:33.

music and drama. At the bottom of this programme there is a footnote

:13:34.:13:35.

saying that the School of drama wardrobe welcomes donations of

:13:36.:13:44.

clothing. So does The One Show's wardrobe, by the way. How has it

:13:45.:13:50.

changed for you? I cannot remember. It was 30 years ago. I don't

:13:51.:13:55.

remember what happened last week. I have a preconception of Chekhov.

:13:56.:13:59.

Straw hats and linen suits, swinging around with middle-class angst. This

:14:00.:14:03.

is the first week and I don't really know that much. It is not what I

:14:04.:14:11.

expected. It is so dark. Everybody is so depressed! Everybody is so

:14:12.:14:20.

desperate. And it is a comedy! It is a brilliant suicide and murder

:14:21.:14:25.

comedy. You love Chekhov, don't you? I do. This is brilliant. I have only

:14:26.:14:33.

done a week. It is brilliant. I have loved it. You were 22 doing your

:14:34.:14:38.

first Chekhov, and the girl who has adapted it is also 22. She has

:14:39.:14:43.

brought it up to date and there is talk about modern technology.

:14:44.:15:15.

Go to work or stay at home and get beaten up.

:15:16.:15:24.

You can see John in Uncle Vanya at the Saint James 's Theatre in London

:15:25.:15:29.

from October the 8th. In just a moment we will meet a man called

:15:30.:15:33.

Mark Pollock, paralysed from the waist down four years ago and has

:15:34.:15:37.

since gone on to hold the record for the most steps taken using an

:15:38.:15:41.

exoskeleton. First, Michael Mosley and Sarah Morgan, sorry, Sophie

:15:42.:15:48.

Morgan, went to meet some pioneers aiming to give more people the

:15:49.:15:57.

ability to walk again. As I became older I became more

:15:58.:16:01.

aware of the fact they were part of my body I could not feel. Sophie had

:16:02.:16:06.

broken her spine. There is that time between sleeping and waking up and I

:16:07.:16:10.

forget that I'm paralysed. I go to stand up and walk. People with a

:16:11.:16:17.

spinal injury as severe as Sophie's, would expect never to walk

:16:18.:16:21.

again. I am walking again but not as I imagined. This is Rex. It is

:16:22.:16:42.

wonderful being able to look at UI to live. Is lovely to be able to

:16:43.:16:45.

talk to somebody at the right height and be able to feel myself, I

:16:46.:16:47.

suppose. I do hope one day that I will be

:16:48.:17:22.

standing here and you would not even know. It might appear slow but just

:17:23.:17:31.

getting this robber bride and walking required extraordinary

:17:32.:17:36.

engineering. The thing is, we humans are inherently unstable. We are

:17:37.:17:40.

top-heavy. Fortunately we have centres all over our bodies. We even

:17:41.:17:47.

have centres in our legs. All of it is about keeping us balance. Has a

:17:48.:18:00.

proven more difficult for easier? To much more difficult. We had to

:18:01.:18:03.

design and build every part ourselves.

:18:04.:18:48.

Richard and the team have developed this robot. It constantly monitors

:18:49.:18:59.

and readjusts its position. It is always balanced. But this robot is

:19:00.:19:07.

not just made for walking. The biggest problem with being in a

:19:08.:19:10.

wheelchair is the physical access. An evening with steps and stairs, I

:19:11.:19:16.

cannot do it. Today they are preparing Sophie and her robot for

:19:17.:19:20.

her greatest challenge yet. Push the joystick forward and lean across

:19:21.:19:38.

that side. Up the stairs. Oh, my God! Hang on. That is it. Simple.

:19:39.:19:59.

Oh, my God! My chair is stuck down there. I want to keep going up.

:20:00.:20:06.

Richard is already working on ways to control his exoskeleton is using

:20:07.:20:10.

thought alone. In the future they will inevitably get smaller, lighter

:20:11.:20:14.

and faster. Spending time with Sophie made me really appreciate

:20:15.:20:17.

what an extraordinary thing it is every time we walk up and down

:20:18.:20:22.

stairs. Thank you so much to Michael and

:20:23.:20:26.

Sophie. Amazing to see Sophie taking her first steps. All good news. We

:20:27.:20:31.

are joined by Mark Pollock. What happened to you? How did you become

:20:32.:20:40.

paralysed? Four years ago I fell from a second story window in the

:20:41.:20:43.

place where I was staying in England, and landed on the concrete

:20:44.:20:48.

below, fractured my skull, leads on the brain, massive internal

:20:49.:20:53.

injuries. I broke my back in two parts. I damaged the spine in two

:20:54.:21:00.

parts. I cannot feel or move anything from my stomach down. The

:21:01.:21:06.

eco-Skeleton system is very different to what we saw in the

:21:07.:21:08.

film. steps so far. What the very first

:21:09.:22:14.

step feel like? Nerve wracking. I was in America. There were three

:22:15.:22:19.

physiotherapists. A harness going to the ceiling. The physios were

:22:20.:22:29.

controlling it. I was strapped into the device. I held onto the

:22:30.:22:34.

harness, pressed a button, I leaned forward. The motors of the knees and

:22:35.:22:37.

hips pushed me into a standing position. Just that movement alone,

:22:38.:22:45.

after sitting down or lying down for nearly two years, was so exciting.

:22:46.:22:50.

It was like crossing the finish line in any race I have ever done. Then I

:22:51.:22:56.

got onto walking. That was a blast. That was all of the adrenaline

:22:57.:23:03.

rush. There are sensors in the feet. When I move on to the left leg and

:23:04.:23:13.

forward the right leg nose to take a step. These things are first

:23:14.:23:22.

generation. Like a first generation mobile phone. Mark, when you take

:23:23.:23:26.

your 1 million step, Willie come back? To it is going to be soon

:23:27.:23:31.

because I am getting quicker and quicker! Even if it is Monday, you

:23:32.:23:41.

come back! We will have a party. The only true Scots who don't know

:23:42.:23:46.

the result of yesterday's referendum don't know because we lock them

:23:47.:23:51.

away, not against their will. Diane and Kenny from Glasgow are married.

:23:52.:23:57.

However, the Yes and No divide in their house is called -- course also

:23:58.:24:03.

sorts of problems. Kenny voted No against his wife. I want an

:24:04.:24:09.

independent Scotland. I want to remain part of the United Kingdom.

:24:10.:24:15.

Since the debates came about, we had to agree not to talk about it in the

:24:16.:24:21.

house. I feel the level of risk associated is too great. It is

:24:22.:24:30.

irreversible. I work in the defence industry, which benefit greatly from

:24:31.:24:34.

being part of the United Kingdom. I work for the NHS. If we were

:24:35.:24:40.

independent, the Government would decide themselves what they wanted

:24:41.:24:43.

to spend their money on. We would have a bigger budget.

:24:44.:24:47.

Let's bring them over. Take their headphones offer. Come over here.

:24:48.:24:59.

Quick as you can! Quick as you can! Meet John Hannah. You are out of

:25:00.:25:08.

isolation. How was it to be in isolation? Was there a sense of

:25:09.:25:21.

freedom? We love that. So relaxed. It has just been Scottish music all

:25:22.:25:30.

day! We did not know what to do. Which result will cause most

:25:31.:25:39.

problems? A No. That is probably the only thing that will make any

:25:40.:25:45.

difference is Diane's enduring grudges. You are smiling about it,

:25:46.:25:53.

which is good. Maybe the sense of togetherness has thawed the result

:25:54.:25:58.

between you. Can you sense anything? No idea. I would like to know. So

:25:59.:26:09.

yesterday in the referendum Scotland voted... No against independence.

:26:10.:26:28.

passionate voters would react the second they found out. What's your

:26:29.:26:33.

initial feeling? Devastated. I can see tears in your eyes. Kenny, how

:26:34.:26:41.

do you feel? Um... I don't feel elated. You look quite deflated

:26:42.:26:47.

actually Kenny. I just hope it is a catalyst for change. I just hope

:26:48.:26:51.

that the promises and commitments that have been made in the run-up to

:26:52.:26:56.

this... By the way, Alex Salmond has resigned as well. While Diane and

:26:57.:27:03.

Kenny digest the news... I think cuddles are required, Kenny.

:27:04.:27:08.

APPLAUSE You've got a John Hannah cuddle as well! Let's meet some more

:27:09.:27:14.

Scottish people who've some making up to do. In the early hours of this

:27:15.:27:23.

morning I was here at the Glad Cafe in Glasgow where supporters of the

:27:24.:27:27.

"Yes" and "No" campaigns were waiting to see if history would be

:27:28.:27:32.

changed forever. Scotland has by a majority decided not to, at this

:27:33.:27:36.

stage, to become an independent country. The sad fact is that where

:27:37.:27:42.

there's a winner there is also a loser. What does that mean for the

:27:43.:27:46.

future relationships between the two opposing camps? There's not going to

:27:47.:27:50.

be too much of a problem moving forward. It is not like we are not

:27:51.:27:55.

friends any more or whatever. There's hurt and pain, but we'll get

:27:56.:28:00.

on with it. Can we wake up this morning and be part of a United

:28:01.:28:06.

Kingdom? Yes. We definitely can. I really fight against that idea of

:28:07.:28:10.

division and I'm very sure that we are going to be able to go ahead and

:28:11.:28:14.

do some very interesting things in the next couple of months. I think

:28:15.:28:18.

those wounds, if you like, will heal. The difficulty will be for

:28:19.:28:22.

some politicians. I think it will be much harder for them to be forgiven.

:28:23.:28:26.

If you promise something you should deliver on it, otherwise it makes a

:28:27.:28:30.

mockery of everything that people have strived for on both sides. This

:28:31.:28:34.

could be the catalyst that could create a more up to date and
