Hello and welcome to the One Show with Alex Jones. And Matt Baker. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
Tonight's guest is a life-saver and an inspiration for anyone looking | :00:23. | :00:28. | |
for a good recipe on a Saturday morning. Lately he has been giving | :00:28. | :00:35. | |
the kiss of life to hospital food. It is James Martin! Brilliant! | :00:35. | :00:41. | |
good. We will be talking about how you have revolutionised star well, | :00:41. | :00:50. | |
I try! The believe food has healing qualities? The feel-good factor, | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
yes, bananas and custard for Main. Serial with cream on top! A top | :00:58. | :01:04. | |
chef has crusties with cream! Chocolate and banana sandwiches in | :01:04. | :01:10. | |
brown bread. That has got everybody's tummies rumbling! | :01:10. | :01:16. | |
about a cup of tea and a biscuit? Chicken soup for me, every time. | :01:16. | :01:19. | |
Tonight we thought we would try to get you a few more of those feel- | :01:19. | :01:26. | |
good recipes. If you are cooking comfort food tonight, hired a mash, | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
fish fingers, take a picture and send it in, James Wright included | :01:30. | :01:36. | |
in one of his new hospital menus. - - James might. Yesterday the jury | :01:36. | :01:41. | |
in the Vicky Pryce case showed fundamental deficits in | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
understanding the case, according to the judge. We sent Anita Rani to | :01:45. | :01:50. | |
find out what you think about juries. Well I was 18, I was on | :01:50. | :01:55. | |
jury service, so it is quite young to do it. But I thought it was a | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
really good experience. If you are going to do jury service, you have | :02:00. | :02:04. | |
a duty to get as much information before you do it. If there are | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
technical terms, they are right to ask. I think people get it right | :02:08. | :02:13. | |
most of the time. Is it time we changed the system? Maybe people | :02:13. | :02:18. | |
should sit a test. I am not sure about changing the system, but | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
maybe we need to look at what we tell them before they sit. There | :02:23. | :02:26. | |
should be an intelligence test, I definitely think we need to be | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
tried by our peers. Providing suitable education before and, just | :02:32. | :02:36. | |
ensuring they have a basic level of knowledge about their duties. | :02:36. | :02:43. | |
on a jury last year, I think it is fair, actually, everyone can get in | :02:43. | :02:49. | |
mayor. Did you enjoy the experience? I did, as a one-off, I | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
learned quite a lot from it. people get called up, it is really | :02:54. | :03:00. | |
important to do it. Anita, they all seemed quite happy with the system, | :03:00. | :03:05. | |
and this mistrial is kind of a one- off, isn't it? Well, it can happen, | :03:05. | :03:10. | |
but it is so rare, the judge is within his rights to dismiss a jury | :03:10. | :03:13. | |
if he feels they have not understood, and this judge said it | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
is the first time he has had to do it in 30 years, so it is very rare. | :03:18. | :03:26. | |
When do people get caught up? James, have you? No. It is random. You | :03:26. | :03:29. | |
have to be on the electoral register, anyone from 18 up to 70, | :03:29. | :03:34. | |
and once you have got your summons, you have to respond within seven | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
days, and you have to do it. You can defer if you have a holiday | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
already booked, and you have to prove that, or you have got an | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
operation, but then you have to do it at another time within the next | :03:46. | :03:51. | |
12 months. Is it something you would like to do, James? As long as | :03:51. | :03:57. | |
it does not fall on a Saturday! still have to do it, it is part of | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
your duty as a citizen. Generally, it seems like people want to show | :04:03. | :04:07. | |
that they know the difference between right and wrong. The people | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
I spoke to today, their experience, they said it opened their eyes to | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
the system we have in this country. They felt it was absolutely fair | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
and right that you are tried by your peers, that you sit together, | :04:19. | :04:23. | |
it is a democratic process. It is one of the fundamentals of the | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
legal system, and they all seemed to appreciate being part of it. | :04:28. | :04:32. | |
where did the system originate? might not like the answer, but we | :04:32. | :04:39. | |
have got the French to thank. Apparently the Normans... They have | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
claimed that one as well, have they?! They had a system where you | :04:43. | :04:48. | |
get people together to swear to tell the truth, but the date that | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
is cited more often his 1215, so are still way back, and that is | :04:51. | :04:56. | |
when the Church start -- stopped using trial by ordeal, when you | :04:56. | :05:00. | |
make people suffer. If they come out all right at the other end, | :05:00. | :05:06. | |
they are not guilty. Obviously! Obviously. So when will this | :05:07. | :05:12. | |
retrial be? Can you imagine the pressure on a jury? Well, they will | :05:12. | :05:16. | |
not know. If you are called up to jury service, you do not know what | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
Casey will be sitting on until you have been sworn in and gone through | :05:19. | :05:26. | |
your oath. It will start again on Monday and last five days. Thank | :05:26. | :05:30. | |
you, Anita, brilliant. James, we spoke to you a few years back when | :05:30. | :05:34. | |
you were on your first mission to revolutionise hospital food, but | :05:34. | :05:41. | |
you are back for seconds. Stupidly, yes! Before we talk, this is James | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
and his team at a hospital and Abergavenny fighting to get a local | :05:44. | :05:53. | |
I believe that hospital food is badly in need of improvement and | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
that too often patients are not getting the good nutritious food | :05:56. | :06:03. | |
they deserve. It is awful. Tasteless. In a 2010 survey, a | :06:03. | :06:07. | |
third of people described the food as an acceptable, and nearly a | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
quarter of patients would not eat it. Instead, they relied on food | :06:12. | :06:15. | |
brought in by family and friends. This is a huge task for us to take | :06:15. | :06:19. | |
on. Looking at the initiatives of previous governments, they have | :06:19. | :06:24. | |
spent up to 50 million quid in recent years are trying to change | :06:24. | :06:30. | |
hospital food. In the first series, I worked with a kitchen team to | :06:30. | :06:32. | |
transform the food at Scarborough General Hospital. For the new | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
series, I want to take my fight to more hospitals right across the | :06:36. | :06:45. | |
country. But the task is so big So I have roped in some of | :06:45. | :06:49. | |
Britain's top chefs to help and given each of them a specific | :06:49. | :06:54. | |
problem to solve. One of those who said yes his Welsh Chef and Double | :06:54. | :06:59. | |
Michelin star winner Stephen Terry. The Health Minister for Wales, | :06:59. | :07:02. | |
Leslie Griffiths, has asked us to develop dishes for a new | :07:02. | :07:06. | |
standardised menu about to be rolled out across all NHS hospitals | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
in Wales. So the picture is what, the basic sketch of what you're | :07:10. | :07:15. | |
trying to achieve? I would like to implement a menu right across Wales | :07:15. | :07:20. | |
to have fully sourced locally, to have similar recipes used. So the | :07:20. | :07:24. | |
idea is to have a recipe bag, recipes that people can dive into | :07:24. | :07:30. | |
and come out of. Absolutely. A good. But as we get to work, Stephen | :07:30. | :07:33. | |
discovers a problem which exposes the red tape which surrounds | :07:34. | :07:40. | |
Hospital Road. What is popular at the moment? The most popular dish | :07:40. | :07:48. | |
is always roast dinners. Do you do lamb? No lamb, because of cost. | :07:48. | :07:52. | |
you ask 100 people what is their favourite rows Stennett... Welsh | :07:52. | :07:58. | |
lamb. I of course. There is no beef or lamb served here because they | :07:58. | :08:02. | |
cannot afford it. Welsh hospitals are tied into contracts with a | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
single supplier, and their current cost for lamb means that it is | :08:06. | :08:14. | |
priced of the menu at this hospital. What are they charging? �8 per kilo. | :08:14. | :08:19. | |
Do they say where it is from? Zealand. He seems absurd best | :08:19. | :08:24. | |
supplier can only offer lamb from the other side of the world and at | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
a price that hospitals cannot afford. I bet we can find a local | :08:27. | :08:37. | |
:08:37. | :08:38. | ||
lamb cheaper. What is your best price? �6.50 sounds good, nice one. | :08:38. | :08:44. | |
Straight off, fresh Welsh lamb, and already it is down to �6.50. I have | :08:44. | :08:50. | |
to just one phone call, Stephen has proved it would be possible to get | :08:50. | :08:54. | |
lamb for less than meat shipped in from thousands of miles away. It | :08:54. | :08:58. | |
seems like a no-brainer, but because of the rules around | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
procurement, it is not that simple. Welsh hospitals are locked into | :09:03. | :09:08. | |
contracts until 2015, so to get local ma'am on the menu, they would | :09:08. | :09:15. | |
have to renegotiate the contract. - - lamb. If it is only from | :09:15. | :09:19. | |
Australia or New Zealand, that is bonkers. Welsh lamb is all around | :09:19. | :09:23. | |
us, there are millions. We take our findings back to the Health | :09:23. | :09:28. | |
Minister to see if she can help. There is one big problem. As far as | :09:28. | :09:33. | |
we know, you cannot buy Welsh lamb and put it on a menu in a hospital | :09:33. | :09:39. | |
in Wales. Well, I would very much like to use Welsh lamb, but we have | :09:39. | :09:43. | |
got to stay within budget. I can get to two suppliers that will do | :09:43. | :09:51. | |
well Slam, on average, for �3.50 cheaper than you are currently | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
buying it their kilo. -- Welsh lamb. He is something we can look at what | :09:56. | :10:00. | |
in the procurement rules. The whole lot that needs investigating. He | :10:00. | :10:03. | |
will have big issues when it comes to buying stuff because you are | :10:03. | :10:08. | |
handcuffed. If the health minister can find a way to sort this, it | :10:08. | :10:14. | |
could save the NHS AIPAC. It seems crazy that Welsh hospitals are not | :10:14. | :10:19. | |
serving Welsh lamb, so I will keep pushing to get it back on the menu. | :10:19. | :10:26. | |
What?! That was part... That is just the start! Wales is plastered | :10:26. | :10:31. | |
with lambs. When you walked out of the hospital, they wore all over | :10:31. | :10:35. | |
the fields in front of us. And one phone call sorted it out. | :10:35. | :10:38. | |
difficult thing is the procurement, you cannot just go to the local | :10:38. | :10:42. | |
store and get some, you have to order it from a central source, and | :10:42. | :10:49. | |
there is a central contract. The good news, however, on Monday it is | :10:49. | :10:53. | |
back on the order. We do not know the price of it yet. But we are | :10:53. | :10:58. | |
pushing, eventually, hopefully, to put Welsh lamb back on the menu. | :10:58. | :11:03. | |
Hopefully we have got good news to follow. You said it is just one of | :11:03. | :11:07. | |
the many things that you tackle. is quite difficult. The main thing | :11:07. | :11:12. | |
you find is the waste, it is a huge issue. It was when I visited three | :11:12. | :11:19. | |
years ago, and the waste was a big issue. Particularly in Wales, they | :11:20. | :11:24. | |
were doing extremely well, single figures, they had an amazing way | :11:24. | :11:28. | |
system, so when the trays came back, they were measuring the amount so | :11:28. | :11:34. | |
they could get it right. In some places it was up to 40%. 40% of | :11:34. | :11:38. | |
everything Cooke was thrown in the bin. It is about communication. | :11:38. | :11:43. | |
There are lots of issues. Do not get me wrong, I think the NHS is | :11:43. | :11:47. | |
one of the most amazing things we have, and it is very easy to throw | :11:47. | :11:52. | |
mud at these things, but it is not easy to fix. What we want to do is | :11:52. | :11:57. | |
fix it from inside, and you can do one thing, hopefully it's no balls | :11:57. | :12:03. | |
on to another trust. So you look at five hospitals during the series. | :12:03. | :12:09. | |
It was supposed to be 1! Four more Said Yes as well. They must all | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
have different needs. One of the interesting ones was down in | :12:12. | :12:18. | |
Cornwall, where we look at stroke patients, and not all of them up... | :12:18. | :12:23. | |
And based in Birmingham for this one, but these were individual | :12:23. | :12:27. | |
issues in individual hospitals. Stroke patients needed food that | :12:27. | :12:32. | |
was nutritious and good for them and tasted really good. Because the | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
project sort of snowballed from one hospital up to five, I phoned up a | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
group of chefs, some of the greatest chefs in the UK, they all | :12:41. | :12:45. | |
came to my house for dinner, not knowing I would get them to do this. | :12:45. | :12:49. | |
They all gave up their time for nothing and did an amazing job. | :12:49. | :12:56. | |
Fingers crossed you will see what they did. Is there any kind of key | :12:56. | :12:59. | |
things you have done? The above all else, the key to this is that it | :12:59. | :13:04. | |
does not cost any money. We proved in Scarborough that we could take a | :13:04. | :13:08. | |
hospital with the passion they have got and now put it in the top 15 | :13:08. | :13:14. | |
hospitals for food in Britain. That has progressed on to Bridlington, | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
so the guys in Scarborough have taken it to Bridlington, so they | :13:18. | :13:22. | |
are getting the menus we have written. You are getting fresh soup, | :13:22. | :13:27. | |
fresh ingredients, fresh vegetables, no packets any more. Nice, | :13:27. | :13:31. | |
nutritious food. The most important thing is that it has not cost any | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
more money, none. We have proved at Scarborough that it can be done for | :13:36. | :13:41. | |
slightly less money. Would you eat it now? Mind you, you eat bananas | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
and custard! Cornflakes and cream! I would give you a list of | :13:47. | :13:57. | |
:13:57. | :13:59. | ||
There's plans to make cooking compulsory for 11 to 14-year-olds | :13:59. | :14:04. | |
from September 2014. It's one I did at school. I think it's probably | :14:04. | :14:09. | |
ten years too late, but better late than never. It's so vital if we're | :14:09. | :14:12. | |
going to stop this obesity and everything else that's going on. | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
It's important that kids learn how to cook. We know you're a fan of | :14:16. | :14:20. | |
having lamb on your plate. But you're not a fan of having sheep in | :14:20. | :14:28. | |
art work. We understand. It doesn't come in like that, but it's more or | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
less like. That it's like a lamb chop in a cage like. That That | :14:31. | :14:37. | |
sheep is actually smiling as well. We've got some Victorian animal art | :14:37. | :14:40. | |
which was just as controversial back then. Phil Tufnell has been to | :14:40. | :14:48. | |
Bury to see it. Deer and stags in particular have | :14:48. | :14:53. | |
inspired artiftsz for centuries. They've been used to represent | :14:53. | :14:59. | |
human notions of pride, dignity and majesty. And it's easy to see why, | :14:59. | :15:03. | |
they truly are magnificent creatures, the perfect study for an | :15:03. | :15:07. | |
artist trying to convey a strong, simple message through an image. | :15:07. | :15:11. | |
Probably the most famous stag painting of all is monarch of the | :15:11. | :15:18. | |
Glenn. It's the best known work of Sir Edwin Lantzia a superstar of | :15:18. | :15:21. | |
the Victorian ear ya, whose popularity was founded on his | :15:21. | :15:26. | |
paintings of animal. Monarch of the Glenn has been reproduced widely, a | :15:26. | :15:30. | |
classic example of what's called chocolate box art, idealistic, | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
sentimental images. Here at Bury art museum, miles from the Tate and | :15:35. | :15:39. | |
V&A, where much of his work is exhibited is a painting that flies | :15:39. | :15:41. | |
exhibited is a painting that flies in the face of his reputation for | :15:41. | :15:49. | |
feel-good pictures. This Professor is an expert on Victorian animal | :15:49. | :15:54. | |
art. How did he get the reputation? For one thing he was so good at | :15:55. | :15:57. | |
drawing animals. They really seem individual and full of expression. | :15:57. | :16:01. | |
You can see, this is ai gun dog, who is hunting out the birds in the | :16:01. | :16:04. | |
undergrowth for its master. Can you see that it's so eager. Can you see | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
the expression in the eyes. And the way it's craning its neck forward. | :16:10. | :16:18. | |
He was a master of anthropomorphism, attributing human emotions to | :16:18. | :16:23. | |
animals. It strikes some people as very sentimental having dogs | :16:23. | :16:26. | |
impersonating the court with the poodle as the Lord Chancellor. | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
Pretty well every house in the land would have had dignity and | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
impudence or the old shepherd's chief mourner. But this picture, | :16:36. | :16:46. | |
:16:46. | :16:46. | ||
the random shot, is very different for much of his work. A beautiful | :16:46. | :16:54. | |
painting and beautiful skies. When you get close it's a bleak | :16:54. | :17:01. | |
image.Age. It is. Every Autumn all the grandees used to go to the | :17:01. | :17:05. | |
Highlands to shoot the stags. In this case a careless sportsman has | :17:05. | :17:11. | |
killed the female. Shooting female deer was considered band form | :17:11. | :17:13. | |
amongst hunters not least because they were nursing the next | :17:14. | :17:18. | |
generation the stags. Worst still he's not killed her outright. She's | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
wondered away mortgagally wounded and come up to the top of this hill | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
an there she's died. The more you look at it, the more of the details | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
you pick up and the more horrific it becomes. Yes. Her eyes turn | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
glassy. The blood is running out of her mouth onto the snow. The baby, | :17:35. | :17:38. | |
the fawn is trying to suckle, but of course, there's no milk there | :17:38. | :17:43. | |
any more. The night is coming on, so there's no hope for the fawn | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
either. Then, as now, the hunting of diardi vieded opinion and | :17:49. | :17:54. | |
Landseer was alive to the controversy. This is something that | :17:54. | :17:58. | |
people don't always realise. Even people who hunt and shoot very | :17:58. | :18:04. | |
often are overcome by sadness for what's involved. Landseer was a | :18:04. | :18:08. | |
keen sportsman. He wents huntsing in the Highlands, yet he was | :18:08. | :18:12. | |
capable of painting a picture like this, full of sadness and regret. I | :18:12. | :18:16. | |
think it's a very sincere picture, you know, that Landseer felt the | :18:16. | :18:22. | |
tragedy that he was presenting us with here. For me, the mark of | :18:22. | :18:26. | |
great art isn't necessarily about the artist's skill or the beauty of | :18:26. | :18:32. | |
the scene but the impression it leaves on you. Landseer's the | :18:32. | :18:38. | |
Random Shot does that. Once you've seen it, you'll never forget it. | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
That's such a bleak image, though. That's such a bleak image, though. | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
It is very emotional. When you get up close to it, it really hits you. | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
Edwin Henry Landseer was commissioned to paint it by Prince | :18:49. | :18:54. | |
Albert. Yes Bic fan, Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, loved his work. | :18:54. | :18:57. | |
He did their pets and portraits of their children. We're not sure if | :18:57. | :19:01. | |
he was paid for. That when it was revealed to Prince Albert, he said | :19:01. | :19:05. | |
it was such a harrowing image he didn't think he could live with it | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
day by day. I don't think it made its way back to the Palace. I don't | :19:09. | :19:14. | |
think he got paid. It was quite a strange commission at the time. | :19:14. | :19:19. | |
was under a lot of pressure at the time to stop blood sports and to | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
stop deer stalking and things like. That a lot of the women didn't want | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
it to happen, cruel and a lot of emotion. But it makes you sad about | :19:26. | :19:34. | |
that. There you go. Fantastic image that. Landseer was also sculptor, | :19:34. | :19:40. | |
can you believe this, he sculpted the Four Lions that are there on | :19:40. | :19:45. | |
Trafalgar Square. They're fantastic. He did the bronzes of the lions. | :19:45. | :19:49. | |
Ten years it took to get them installed. They're installed in | :19:49. | :19:54. | |
1867. Are they all different then? I think they're all the same. There | :19:54. | :19:58. | |
might be a few different expressions on the faces. | :19:58. | :20:01. | |
Impressive. Beautiful. Absolutely fantastic bits of work. You must | :20:01. | :20:06. | |
have been hanging round them on New Year's Eve, haven't you? Not New | :20:06. | :20:10. | |
Year's Eve, but I've hung around them. Jumping all over them. They | :20:10. | :20:15. | |
are brilliant. You come with more news from the art world. This | :20:15. | :20:19. | |
banksy that's been stolen. Yes, this piece of wall has been stolen | :20:19. | :20:25. | |
and it's now going to be up for auction, this is going up for | :20:25. | :20:30. | |
auction in Miami on Saturday. It's estimated to get about �450,000 for | :20:30. | :20:35. | |
tx the Haringey Council are urging the Arts Council to intervene. | :20:35. | :20:38. | |
They're saying we want our wall back. You can't just walk off with | :20:38. | :20:42. | |
our wall and flog it. That's the thing, because it's worth a bit of | :20:42. | :20:45. | |
money. Nearly half a million quid you know, people aren't sure how | :20:45. | :20:50. | |
that's going to pan out. They say up for auction on Tuesday. James | :20:50. | :20:54. | |
said you drove past those lions, were you in a sports car? No a | :20:54. | :20:59. | |
pick-up truck. Were you?! It's the best truck in the world. There you | :20:59. | :21:05. | |
go. We know that you collect vehicles. Yes. You Can Get It will | :21:05. | :21:10. | |
probably know the part that large parts of Formula One cars are stuck | :21:10. | :21:15. | |
together with super glue. Matt has been finding out about the origins | :21:15. | :21:20. | |
of glue, so much so he's become pretty attached to the stuff. | :21:20. | :21:26. | |
Glue literally holds modern life together. It sticks our cars, | :21:26. | :21:33. | |
phones, the TVs you're watching. Glue even holds together the | :21:33. | :21:37. | |
fusillage of aeroplanes and I'm not talking about models like, this I'm | :21:37. | :21:42. | |
talking about real, big aeroplanes. There we go. These days, we take | :21:42. | :21:47. | |
glue completely for granted. But with just a few small drops of | :21:47. | :21:54. | |
adhesive you can create a super strong bond. See?! There's one glue | :21:54. | :21:59. | |
that's really made a difference to our lives super glue, super because | :21:59. | :22:04. | |
it sticks any surfaces together and does it super fast. It was | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
discovered by chance by the Americans in the 1940s, while | :22:09. | :22:14. | |
trying to create plastic for gun sights. Experiments ended newspaper | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
a gloop that stuck hard to everything. Scientists had stumbled | :22:19. | :22:26. | |
across an amazing adhesive and by accident super glue was born. So, | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
just how strong can super glue be? To find out I've come to the | :22:31. | :22:34. | |
welding institute in Cambridge to meet add heesives expert Dr Ewan | :22:34. | :22:40. | |
Kellar. These two bits of metal and we're going to pull that car? | :22:40. | :22:45. | |
That's the idea. Will this be strong enough, in theory? In theory, | :22:45. | :22:50. | |
yes. Gliemy. One skirt of supermarket superglue, two cars and | :22:50. | :22:55. | |
supermarket superglue, two cars and it's time to gauge the glue's grip. | :22:55. | :23:05. | |
Within just ten minutes we're on the move. It's working! In fact, | :23:05. | :23:11. | |
just a postage stamp of superglue can lift a ton of weight. What | :23:11. | :23:15. | |
makes it so quick setting? It's all to do with how it changes from a | :23:15. | :23:25. | |
liquid to a solid. Super glue stays a liquid inside the bottle. It's | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
acid that keeps it liquid in the Tube. When it is squeezed out the | :23:30. | :23:33. | |
acid reacts with moisture in the air. If I squeeze some on this | :23:33. | :23:41. | |
metal like that, a blob there, the moisture neutralises the acid. Put | :23:41. | :23:47. | |
another piece of medal on top. This allows it to change to a solid | :23:47. | :23:49. | |
almost instantly. It should have already done its job. | :23:49. | :23:57. | |
Like. That So, that's why it sets so fast. But | :23:57. | :24:03. | |
what exactly makes superglue's bond so strong? I know that's a domino. | :24:03. | :24:08. | |
Imagine this is a glue molecule. In the Tube are lots of these single | :24:08. | :24:12. | |
molecules. When squeezed out it's their reaction with water vapour | :24:12. | :24:16. | |
that makes them link up. All the molecules start sticking together | :24:17. | :24:24. | |
and you get this massive, very fast chain reaction that creates a long, | :24:24. | :24:30. | |
snakey chain. The snakey chain begins to get tangled up with each | :24:30. | :24:35. | |
other. The chains become a tightly bound mesh. It's this mesh that can | :24:35. | :24:41. | |
grip fast to surfaces joining them together with such a strong bond. | :24:41. | :24:48. | |
New uses for super glue are coming to light all the time. Including | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
crime prevention. A security firm has turned to glue to thwart cash | :24:53. | :24:57. | |
box robbers. Every day bundles of banknotes are transported securely | :24:57. | :25:02. | |
around the country. I'll have that thank very much. Anyone trying to | :25:02. | :25:07. | |
break into these new cash boxes is in for a sticky surprise. As soon | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
as the box is tampered with the glue floods the inside of it. | :25:11. | :25:19. | |
Immediately it gets to work on the cash inside. Risk technology | :25:19. | :25:23. | |
manager Andrew Preston will show me what happens. I will show you. | :25:23. | :25:28. | |
There's a bit of a whiff. Yes, there's a residue. That is real ten | :25:28. | :25:32. | |
pound notes in this instance. at. That Can you see it's pretty | :25:32. | :25:40. | |
solid. That is one solid block of money. Look at. That These boxes | :25:40. | :25:46. | |
have already foiled several robberies. Super glue is now a | :25:46. | :25:48. | |
rapid response option in crime fighting as well as in our | :25:48. | :25:56. | |
households. What an idea! Joining us is | :25:56. | :25:58. | |
adhesives expert Dr Ewan Kellar the star of our film. You're going to | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
show us how to make home-made glue essentially. You're very excited | :26:03. | :26:08. | |
about this. I am looking forward to this. This is one recipe you've not | :26:08. | :26:12. | |
come across. I've probably seen something similar in hospital, | :26:12. | :26:17. | |
called custard. I think this is a low-fat version. Come on then. | :26:17. | :26:22. | |
start with milk. It's skimmed, no fat, no cream. Got to be skimmed? | :26:22. | :26:27. | |
Got to be. No fat in there. Basically we now want to add some | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
vinegar. Normal vinegar? Yes, stuff you'd put your chips in. All of a | :26:32. | :26:39. | |
sudden it goes a really lovely gloopy mess. It's curdled. We could | :26:39. | :26:46. | |
be making cottage cheese or whatever. We want to get that curd | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
out. We pour this through the muz Lynn. This was introduced quietd | :26:52. | :26:56. | |
ate -- quite a while back. Yes the Egyptians were doing this. | :26:56. | :27:02. | |
effective is this glue then? Pretty good. Was it comparable to, PVA | :27:02. | :27:08. | |
standard? It's probably as good. We can squeeze that until the cows | :27:08. | :27:13. | |
come home. But we'll do a Blue Peter moment here. I'll tidy that | :27:13. | :27:20. | |
up. You've done this before, Matt. Ooh! We need some glue to stick | :27:20. | :27:25. | |
that together. We now have our curd which is the solid stuff. It's the | :27:25. | :27:29. | |
protein out of milk. We want to make that back into a liquid. We | :27:29. | :27:34. | |
use the acid to get it out of the milk water. Now we want it back as | :27:34. | :27:39. | |
a pure form. This is just so far just milk and vinegar. Yes. Here's | :27:39. | :27:48. | |
a lump. It's like mozarella. take some bicash of soda. -- bicarb | :27:48. | :27:56. | |
of soda. We add water. Next stage. Which bowl is it? We then basically | :27:56. | :28:03. | |
just mix it up and what happens is it starts frothing up. And this is | :28:03. | :28:07. | |
one made earlier. I've always wanted to say that | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
froths up and settles down. And this is glue. That glue is so | :28:11. | :28:17. | |
strong that if you let it cure properly it can pull wood apart. | :28:17. | :28:21. | |
the recipe for this on the website then? We could do that. We will put | :28:21. | :28:26. | |
it on the website. There you go. Have a go at pulling that apart | :28:27. | :28:36. | |
:28:37. | :28:40. | ||
James. You can snap it that way. But pulling it apart is the key. | :28:40. | :28:45. | |
Give me a bit more glue. Stick it back together. Earlier we asked you | :28:45. | :28:49. | |
to send us pictures of what you eat when you're feeling under the | :28:49. | :28:55. | |
weather. Carys and mum made toad in the hole in South Wales. That looks | :28:55. | :29:00. | |
nice. This is from Birmingham, eating his pie and mash. There we | :29:00. | :29:03. | |
are. He doesn't look too under the weather there and it's quite a | :29:03. | :29:09. | |
large portion. This looks nice. Now, this is the delicious roast dinner. | :29:09. | :29:17. | |
That looks nice. And this is Paulo eating home made chorizo and pepper | :29:17. | :29:21. |
