20/11/2017 The One Show

Hello and welcome to

the One Show with Sabah...

..and Luke.

Now, as it's World Children's Day,

we've taken over,

and booked tonight's guests.

I think we deserve loads of cake

because of last week's 500

miles on the rickshaw.

APPLAUSE

So I've invited the nation's

favourite baker.

And I really wanted to book Beckham,

but he wasn't available.

AUDIENCE GROAN

So we've had to make do

with his dad instead!

LAUGHTER

Please welcome Mary Berry.

And David Beckham!

APPLAUSE

Welcome to the show, David.

Thank

you.

We have seen that you have been

playing football with Harper on your

Instagram account. Is she any good

and will she follow in your

footsteps?

She is really good and

she started a few months ago and

loves it. She loves going out on a

Sunday and kicking around with her

dad, so we will see. You never know.

Fingers crossed.

Mary, welcome to

the show. We were wondering, after a

big bike ride, what is the best cake

to recharge our batteries?

How about

a Victoria sandwich? There's nothing

better.

APPLAUSE

Perfect, that's brilliant.

You to

make our way to go. Over you get.

And of Team Rickshaw, who are over

there. Enjoying a David and Victoria

sponge cake.

Welcome, both, nice to

see you.

Of course, Team Rickshaw

have shown what young people can

achieve if given the chance to

flourish.

Yes, but not every young

person gets that chance. As Unicef

ambassador for 12 years, David has

been campaigning for change around

the world. Today, his duties took

him a bit closer to home.

Good

morning, David.

Good morning.

I'm

James. We do loads of work to help

with children all round the world,

to be the best that they can be.

Good morning. How are you? Hi.

Nice

to meet you.

I'm David, by the way!

You've got David Beckham in the room

- what would you like to ask him

about his role as a Unicef

Ambassador?

Do you like football?

Do

I like football? ! I love football.

Do you -- do you like it?

What do

you think is the most important

right?

The most important right... I

think the right to a voice, because

then, children are able to speak

about the pollution. A better way to

play live a better life.

If you

could pick only three rights, which

would you pick and buy?

Health care

is definitely an important one. I

would say clean air, and it has to

be education, because it's so

important for children. I personally

want to thank you all, because all

the great work you are doing here

actually goes over to these

different places to help children,

and gives them the opportunity to

live better lives, so keep it up,

because it is helping a lot of

children around the world.

APPLAUSE

Nice! Yes! Another goal!

I hope I

don't hit the camera. Maybe I

should!

What a brilliant surprise for those

youngsters. What fundamental things

help you flourish, David, when you

were a boy?

I would have to say the

support of my family. My parents

were there from day one until I

retired, so they followed me

everywhere, did everything with me,

gave me the support I needed, and

not enough children around the

world, and I have seen that in my

travels with Unicef, unfortunately

some children don't have that

support, so definitely visible of my

parents.

And you, Mary? Even as a

grandmother, things change from a

parent's perspective to a

grandmother's perspective.

I love

being outside as a child and

playing. My grandchildren are the

same, they are sporty and they love

the outside, in all weathers, just

dress for it.

As you say, David,

lots of children around the world

just aren't brought up in families

that are supported. 385 million

children estimated live in extreme

poverty. What do you do as the

Ambassador of Unicef to try and help

that?

There are many things we do.

There are certain territories that

we focus on with the 7 Fund. There

are seven places that we really kind

of going to and try and raise as

much awareness for those particular

causes, and also raise as much money

as well. I think we're very proud of

what we've achieved over the last

three years since the 7 Fund

started, but I've been Unicef

ambassador for a number of years and

been part of Unicef for the last 16.

That 7 Fund was set up to mark your

ten year anniversary as an

ambassador.

It was, and you know,

like I said, I have worked with

Unicef for the last 16 years, but

three years ago, we sat down and

said, what more can we do? How can

we focus on certain territories and

do more stuff? And we've done that,

and it has been an incredible three

years. We have exceeded the

expectations and we're proud of what

we have done, but there is more to

do.

We saw pictures of you visiting

various projects around the world.

You went to Swaziland recently and

met a little boy called Sebenelle.

Tell us about him.

He was an amazing

young boy. There are many places we

have visited before, but Sebenelle

was an amazing young boy who has

lost his parents through HIV and

AIDS. He has the disease himself but

he's an amazing young boy that does

so many things, so many great

things, but one of the things we

have help with this 7 Fund is, it

wasn't just what he was going

through. He wasn't getting the right

nutrients, wasn't eating, and

medication which helps with HIV and

aids for them to cope a lot better,

he needs to take that with a full

stomach and he didn't have a full

stomach, so we have helped feed not

just himself but other children that

are suffering with the disease. And

then also, he is able to get the

right medication and that is another

thing that we help with the 7 Fund.

Swaziland has the highest rate of

infection in the world. Though it is

reducing through work, so for you to

go there and meet the likes of

Sebenelle and to know that what you

are doing is having an effect, what

is that like?

Incredible. There are

so many people who do so many great

things. What we've done, with this

centre, it gives kids like Sebenelle

the chance to actually go to the

centre, and he is able to be in a

safe place where he can talk about

the conditions that he goes through,

how his future looks, and he is able

to do that with other children that

have got HIV and AIDS, and that is

kind of a real comfort for him.

As a

dad yourself to four children,

obviously, they have had a

privileged upbringing, so how have

you made sure that they understand

over the years, the boys are a bit

older, is that not all children have

the same background and children are

struggling around the world?

I am

really proud of the work that we've

done, and proud that I can then come

home and actually teach the kids

what Daddy has been doing, because

when they see me giving on a trip,

they know I am working, but

sometimes they don't know everything

that I do on the work site. I love

taking pictures and I bring them

home after Ray Unicef trip and show

the kids what I've seen, what these

children are coming through.

The

reality.

And how you can make a

change. Romeo turned round a few

years ago and said, how can I help?

He did the kids London Marathon, and

he raised £7,000 just doing that,

which he then put into the fund. So,

they understand that they have lived

a lucky life, and what they have,

other children don't have around the

world. There are excited and proud

to help.

Well, one team that have

been doing their very best to raise

as much money as possible is Team

Rickshaw, and as it is well to

children's Day, we thought we would

throw it out to them to ask the

questions. Shona...

Who does the

school run?

I do. Luckily, I'm

retired now, so I actually can do

the school run every single day. I

didn't do it today because I was

busy with such a busy and important

day.

Do you spend an hour and a

half?

I am a forlorn taxi driver. --

full on taxi driver. It is the other

side of London for Harper.

I bet you

get stopped on the way!

I do!

Bay, head to the One Show website.

Mary's new show, country has

secrets, starts this week. Here she

is becoming Lady Mary at the real

Downton Abbey.

The gatherings here had defined a

generation. The parties have evolved

since then, but they still bring

people together to talk, laugh and

dine in an elegant style.

You look

absolutely stunning. How lovely to

see you.

Very nice to see the place

so alive with people.

Can I offer

you a drink before we go any

further? Never is a nonalcoholic...

To keep up my reputation!

Mary! Now,

the thing is, we didn't realise

otherwise we would have got the

fizz. Bring the fizz in. It's Mary

Berry! This is the three-for-two

cava. You were looking around the

beautiful houses, meeting the people

that own them...

I am going down

secret passages behind that door and

seeing, because they are all open

for visitors, in every house, they

live in the house. I go where other

people don't go, down the passages,

and with Lady Caernarvon, I am in

her kitchen, cooking with her, and

she did a wonderful first course. I

actually cook for a party at the

end. I do a bit of cooking, but I

have a good look round too. And it's

lovely. They lived just as we do in

a sort of way. If we had a party,

Lady Caernarvon just went out and

picked all the flowers and brought

them in, washed the vases and bid

them. It was meat and drink to me.

Is it rude to ask if you had a

favourite? And would you be happy to

say that if you had one?

I started

with going to Highclere, and I

thought, I loved going out with the

dogs will stop they had wonderful

spaniels, and they behaved so

beautifully. They walked down a

hill, and in a long line, not on

leads. Rather like One Man And His

Dog, and I love that. I cooked a

pheasant stew for them all, and they

were so appreciative. That was a

highlight.

This is the pheasant

stew. Look at that for a meal!

And

it was all served in a room that had

cobwebs at the top, and they sat all

the way round. It was... They just

loved it. It was proper food, and

their appetites - I thought I had

enough foreign army. There were

about 12 of them. They had suits

that all matched in, I think it was,

Harris Tweed.

And especially

Highclere Castle. Downton Abbey is

very much upstairs, downstairs. And

I think of you as upstairs, but

where do you see yourself?

I saw

myself as being extremely nosy, and

I wanted to ask all the questions.

When you go around the house,

obviously, you see all sorts of

things, and I had a huge surprise,

because Tutankhamun, you go down

passages to the basement, and there,

because Lord Caernarvon's father

went out - grandfather - went out to

Egypt and found it with his friends.

And that was Howard Carter.

David,

you are renowned for living in

beautiful houses - is it right that

you are planning a new one now?

You could ask Mary for kitchen

layout advice. Is there must in your

house? -- must have.

The must have,

a good set of cooking pans. I love

cooking.

What is the signature?

I

lived in Milan for 11 months, and I

had quite relaxed schedule with the

team so the afternoon I would take a

culinary course for five months

because the kids loved pasta. So I

would make a nice ragu and fresh

pasta as a signature.

We are moving

onto anniversaries. Country House

Secrets begins at Wednesday, 8pm on

BBC One. Windsor Castle will be very

busy because the Queen and Prince

Philip have gone platinum. It is

their 70th wedding anniversary and

they are hosting a private dinner to

celebrate. Mary, can you take us

back 51 years to your wedding day?

My father gave us £2000 and said,

you can spend it on your wedding or

it will help you to get your first

house. It was a lot of money. We had

a frugal wedding, in an almost army

tent, I made the cake but had no

time to do any of that piping on it.

And it was a very happy day. And

after 51 years, it gets better.

Rarely do I hear anyone talking

about their husband like you do. It

has been 18 years since you were

married?

It really has.

What were

the highlights of your wedding day?

What was your first dans?

I'm not

sure the first dans was a highlight,

I would have to say the family being

there, the family coming together

was such a special thing, any excuse

to bring everyone together.

Family

is so important to you. Before we

came in I saw that you're having a

little chat to your daughter.

She

goes to bed at seven so she was

like, daddy, where are you. Just

checking she had done the homework.

Let's head back to see who else got

married in the same year as the

royal couple. Princess Elizabeth

married Philip Mountbatten.

As well

as the thousands of people who lined

the streets, worldwide, over a 200

million people listened to the

coverage on the radio. But the Duke

of Edinburgh was not the only

serving member who got married that

year. Jeffrey Davies and his wife

Iris live in Bristol but met at a

youth centre and it was love at

first sight.

The first day I saw

her, I thought, this will be all

right! David being in the Navy was

being constantly deployed around the

world so they spent very little time

getting to know each other. We've

counted up the time we were together

before we were married and it must

have been about six weeks until I

was walking down the aisle and saw

him there.

As rationing was still in

force, the food had to be stockpiled

for months leading up to the big

day.

During the war a lot of braids

did not have a cake, it was made out

of cardboard. Luckily, because his

father was a baker, we were able to

have a three tier proper cake so

that was really something, that was.

To celebrate their anniversary,

David and Iris had a special tea

party with family including seven

great-grandchildren. Isaac Clement

went to a dance where he met one

girl but another caught his eye and

when she headed home for the evening

he decided she was the better

choice.

My brother came and he said,

there is a sailor looking for you.

We went to the beaches.

Isaac was 20

years old and Margaret was just 16

and worked in the local textile

mill. They got married to 12 weeks

after they met.

We got engaged one

week and married another week.

She's

still got the ring I bought her.

Look how thin it is. It cost 30

Rock. They went to Australia but

soon returned as it wasn't for them

and went on to bring up a large

family here.

As we grew older, we

have been around.

David and Kathleen

from Edinburgh are also had a

whirlwind romance. It started at a

new years party.

David opened the

door and that was it. He went back

that morning to meet my mum and dad

and then had to go back to the ship.

He got a week of leave in February

and that is where we arranged our

marriage. We got married on the 12th

of March.

David was 22 and achieved

stoker in the Navy. Kathleen was 19.

The families were pretty shocked by

the decision to get married.

They

did not think very much of it. She

thought it would never last. We knew

better than that. We went ahead with

it.

Eventually, David left the Navy

and became a train driver. Kathleen

became a homemaker. They celebrated

their anniversary with a

get-together for the whole family.

To celebrate being married for 70

years is a platinum achievement.

What do they think is the secret to

a long and successful marriage?

If

you've got problems, talk them out,

don't keep them bottled up.

We give

each other case when we get up.

Never go to bed an argument. Always

try to make up before you go to bed.

That is very true.

You can hear the

agreement.

Huge congratulations to

Iris and David, Margaret and Isaac.

A huge round of applause to everyone

celebrating. Let's keep the applause

going because we are joined by Team

Rickshaw! Over the last week,

pedalled for Children In Need, 500

miles, from this very studio all the

way to Glasgow. We arrived on

Children In Need night. A huge

turnout and a huge total.

A massive

total. You were shocked, weren't

you?

We were all shocked. It was

over 5 million. What did you think

when you saw it? It jumped up so

much.

It was weird thinking about it

because we'd been going, not

wondering what the total was. Doing

it for all the reasons we were doing

it for. To get to the end and see

how big it was, it was amazing,

really. Did not expect it at all.

It

was clear that you really enjoyed

the challenge. How do you feel

you've changed as a person since? It

had quite a profound effect on you.

I feel like I've grown in

confidence. I want to set so many

goals for myself. I'd love to keep

going, setting those goals.

Look how

cool you look sitting next to David

Beckham. It's quite remarkable. We

had some raid. You wanted to do that

on your own, did not want any of us

to touch the rickshaw. You put in a

huge amount of effort and went down

in cycling history to get that make

up to the top. What do you think it

has done for you?

I'm more

determined to push towards my own

goals. All the way uphill because it

was quite a long way, I thought I

needed to push harder. There are

always there to support us, trying

to push us if we need it.

In that

one day, if you add all the claims,

it was four times the height of the

shard.

Get off.

Isn't that mad?

And

that weather. You were saying you

were so-called. David, so many other

children last week were inspired by

what these six managed. It is so

important as you've seen with your

work.

You look up to role models and

what better way of being able to

look up to be pulled and young

children like this who made such a

difference, raised so much money out

of the goodness of their hearts? It

is incredible. On that note, for

anybody watching, what do you hope

they've taken away from what you got

up to?

I hope they've found

inspiration in us six and they

believe anything is possible.

Especially when you've got friends

around you and you stick together

and do things as a team. And I

suppose the big thing that helped

was having a me there because we

understand how close your bond is

and how much your system means to

you. You've had some bad news, Amy

had a seizure, but is she doing OK?

I think she's all right, we've not

had any updates from yesterday. She

was not too good yesterday so I'm

hoping she will be all right.

You

just lit up the minute you saw her.

It was phenomenal. You only need to

save two words to get him to the

finish line. Chicken nuggets. He

knows. You were on dialysis

yesterday and we had to build

dialysis into the route as we went

along but what do you think this

experience has given you? We were

travelling a lot, had that machine

with you.

It has always been there,

but the experience you get

first-hand from London to Scotland

whilst doing dialysis gives you a

new mindset of, I don't need to be

bound to my bedroom, I can go out

and do dialysis in other places.

You

took the same way because you look

stronger than ever.

Yes. The

training and the challenge itself

helped me be stronger than I ever

have been. It helped me become more

independent because of that. I'm

going to keep up with the cycling

and keep on my exercise bike at

home.

You've got to get it sorted.

We will make sure it happens. It was

some bike ride and it was a

phenomenal effort. Once again, here

we go.
