:00:08. > :00:13.Angela, the One Show's about to start. We are nowhere near the
:00:14. > :00:16.studio and we've got to deliver tonight's programme. I'm going as
:00:17. > :00:21.fast as I can. I've only got baby legs. You have to push a bit harder.
:00:22. > :00:27.Push, push. I'm pushing as hard as I can. Take plenty of deep breathes. I
:00:28. > :00:41.can see the titles. The tie reallies coming! -- titles. We arrived and
:00:42. > :00:46.the titles arrived safely, too. Thank goodness! I enjoy that.
:00:47. > :00:51.Welcome to One Show with Nurse Matt Baker. You look good in a dress.
:00:52. > :00:54.Thank you. And Sister Angela Scanlon who looks equally as good in a
:00:55. > :00:59.dress. We have Call the Midwife and have gone one for who always keeps
:01:00. > :01:02.calm in a crisis. With your next pain I want you to push with all
:01:03. > :01:08.your strength. Really show me what you can do. Ah, help me. You're
:01:09. > :01:15.doing wonderfully. Just keep calm and breathe. It won't be long now.
:01:16. > :01:20.Well done. I have done this once or twice before Mr Dockerill. Please
:01:21. > :01:25.welcome the very calming, Helen George.
:01:26. > :01:29.APPLAUSE Hi. I'm that excited. I love Call
:01:30. > :01:36.the Midwife a do this lot. Brilliant. Trixie keeps very calm in
:01:37. > :01:41.a crisis, are you the same? Not at all. I'm the opposite.
:01:42. > :01:45.I panic I'm a flapper, an absolute flapper. She's very controlled and
:01:46. > :01:48.in charge of everything. I would be a rubbish midwife. Really? That is
:01:49. > :02:09.worrying. Storm Doris apparently will be here.
:02:10. > :02:14.It sounds like a character from Call the Midwife. Batten down the
:02:15. > :02:18.hatches. That is the message. Before Doris arrives in full force, because
:02:19. > :02:22.we love the name. Tonight we are are looking for Dorises, windy or
:02:23. > :02:29.otherwise. Send your pictures into the usual address.
:02:30. > :02:32.For most of us, the only way to get money out of a cash machine
:02:33. > :02:35.is with a card and a PIN number, but reckless criminals
:02:36. > :02:37.are using much more explosive methods to get at the money,
:02:38. > :02:40.and they don't care who gets hurt in the process.
:02:41. > :02:48.This is the moment a gang of robbers blow up a cashpoint. Sending debris
:02:49. > :02:52.flying into the road. This gang caused ten explosions in just one
:02:53. > :03:00.month across London and the south. Which netted them a total of
:03:01. > :03:04.?120,000. These cashpoint bombings are happening across the country and
:03:05. > :03:15.police want it stopped before someone gets killed. Trinia Taylor
:03:16. > :03:18.knows better than most the attacks pose. This was your place? Yes it
:03:19. > :03:23.was. My bedroom there. My daughter's above. Last year, she and her two
:03:24. > :03:28.teenage children were sleeping in their flat over the village Post
:03:29. > :03:33.Office when they were awoken by an almighty explosion. At one point I
:03:34. > :03:37.thought it was a gas explosion. It was the like the whole flat, like a
:03:38. > :03:41.cartoon went - and it went back together. All the cup boards were
:03:42. > :03:46.flown open. Everything was chucked out, on the floor. Fitted cooker had
:03:47. > :03:51.jumped out of its socket. The fire went straight up and through the
:03:52. > :03:56.floorboards. Below the flat and following instructions on a mobile
:03:57. > :04:02.phone, the robbers had filled the cashpoint with highly flammable gas
:04:03. > :04:06.before setting it alight. This is the first time Trinia has seen the
:04:07. > :04:12.CCTV footage of the moment her family's life was put in danger. Oh,
:04:13. > :04:17.my God. Wow. He's setting a bomb and we are upstairs asleep. When you
:04:18. > :04:23.think what could have happened, it's scary. This is was the result. The
:04:24. > :04:31.explosion ripped the front off the Post Office. Morning. A year on,
:04:32. > :04:36.owner David Andrews, says the damage and loss of business cost nearly
:04:37. > :04:41.?200,000. That's on top of the ?60,000 in cash stolen by the
:04:42. > :04:46.robbers. Absolutely horrific. It looks like a terror attack. It does.
:04:47. > :04:50.We worked eight years to build up the business. The impact of this has
:04:51. > :04:53.set us back four or five It's a Post years. Office, a service to the
:04:54. > :04:57.community, isn't it? Absolutely. We were closed for four months. A lot
:04:58. > :05:00.of the local residents had to go elsewhere and they struggled. It's
:05:01. > :05:04.not just the money, it's the impact it has on the people as well. These
:05:05. > :05:09.explosive attacks have been on the rise. Across Europe where the crime
:05:10. > :05:16.wave began there was an 80% increase last year. With more 70 attacks in
:05:17. > :05:20.the UK alone. Businesses and banks have lost millions of pounds in
:05:21. > :05:33.stolen cash and damage. What are police doing to stop this explosive
:05:34. > :05:43.new breed of hole-in-the-wall gangs? They they are leading a response on
:05:44. > :05:49.ATM attacks. There is damage caused by these explosiveses. We have been
:05:50. > :05:53.working with the ATM industry some machines are fitted with suppression
:05:54. > :05:56.see equipment that stop the explosiveses taking place and
:05:57. > :06:00.armoured plating to stop the gangs from getting at the cash in the
:06:01. > :06:03.machines themselves. The new cash machine here is one of thousands
:06:04. > :06:09.across the UK have now been toughened up to defuse this
:06:10. > :06:12.explosive crime wave. As for the perpetrators, police say these gangs
:06:13. > :06:17.should know loppingeninger be treated like robbers, but more like
:06:18. > :06:23.bombers. That means prosecutors taking a hardline approach using
:06:24. > :06:27.special powers from the Attorney General to charge the gangs, not
:06:28. > :06:32.just with burglary and robbery but with the most serious explosive
:06:33. > :06:37.offences. These offences can lead to life imprisonment. I think that
:06:38. > :06:40.really recognises the seriousness of the offending and the recklessness
:06:41. > :06:45.of those offenders. Already this year, a number of gangs have been
:06:46. > :06:50.sentenced using these powers, including the three men behind the
:06:51. > :06:59.Longashton attack who were jailed for more than 20 years in total. For
:07:00. > :07:01.Trinia it's a jail term that befits a gang that cared little for the
:07:02. > :07:04.consequences of their crime. They were bombing. They were
:07:05. > :07:09.concentrating on getting the cash with no thought for anybody who
:07:10. > :07:15.might be living above. They intently endangered my life. Incredible
:07:16. > :07:19.footage that, isn't it? That's the point, the recklessness of it. Not
:07:20. > :07:22.thinking of who would be above the cashpoint or anything like that.
:07:23. > :07:29.Fitting the sentences are more severe now for sure. Yeah. Helen,
:07:30. > :07:33.Call the Midwife Christmas special was a hit, NTA under your belt. It
:07:34. > :07:41.has gone from strength to strength. Last week's episode was a real tear
:07:42. > :07:45.jerker. I still haven't seen it. We don't get to see them as they are
:07:46. > :07:51.filmed. That is what I missed. I have to catch up. I will watch it.
:07:52. > :07:55.Sglm very emotion al stuff. Some tweets, people online saying they
:07:56. > :08:00.were devoid of moisture, they were weeping uncontrollably. Lovely
:08:01. > :08:05.Cynthia was back as well. This whole storyline is amazing. I know. How
:08:06. > :08:10.down do things get on set when you are filming situations like that? On
:08:11. > :08:14.those days when you are going in, are the whole cast down? Everybody
:08:15. > :08:19.is good about it. There has been some really emotion al scenes, as we
:08:20. > :08:24.all know. Sometimes it gets you. One particular moment when Pam Ferris,
:08:25. > :08:31.when her sister died. They brought out her coffinw her shoes on top. It
:08:32. > :08:36.floored me, all of us. So, yeah, it is really sad at some points. On the
:08:37. > :08:40.flip side we spend a lot of time giggling and getting into trouble.
:08:41. > :08:43.There is a fair balance. You deal with quite hard subjects in every
:08:44. > :08:49.episode, not just last week's episode. Is that tough emotionally
:08:50. > :08:53.and gruelling as an October orror to immerse yourself in it every day It
:08:54. > :08:59.is because a lot of the storylines aren't that long ago. You realise
:09:00. > :09:06.how far we have come on for a lot of them and how much further we have to
:09:07. > :09:11.come. You are documenting these cases. You take your dog with you?
:09:12. > :09:15.It's true. We have a picture. Apparently there are more dogs on
:09:16. > :09:19.set than people at times? Than babies, most of the time. Most of
:09:20. > :09:22.the regular characters have dogs. We bring them on to the set. We sit
:09:23. > :09:29.around at lunch with our dogs having a lovely tea party. That cuts
:09:30. > :09:34.through the emotion al vibe on set? Yeah, sometimes. When my dog walks
:09:35. > :09:38.on to set and barks and makes a smell or something. It's always a
:09:39. > :09:45.bit awkward. Does that happen often It does! It is happening for your
:09:46. > :09:50.character, Trixie, in the last episode, that you haven't seen yet,
:09:51. > :09:54.you met a dentist. Your character. I did. There is a ate date about to
:09:55. > :10:02.happen. Let's have a look at how it goes. If the world is about to be
:10:03. > :10:07.blown up you have to be shone a good time. Londonside your oyster, you
:10:08. > :10:11.can do anyone you want, dine, dance... I think I'd quite like to
:10:12. > :10:21.sit here, with you, doing not much at all. Just see what happens.
:10:22. > :10:27.APPLAUSE Wow! See what happens. I mean, can
:10:28. > :10:32.you give us any idea what happens? Does he kiss me, doesn't he kiss me?
:10:33. > :10:36.You tell us. That scene, there is a beautiful car that we used for most
:10:37. > :10:41.of his scenes. He has this gorge ghouls pale blue sports car. He is 6
:10:42. > :10:45.foot 4 the car is a Lego car. He was like this for the whole time for all
:10:46. > :10:49.of her scenes. Trixie has been hurt before. She is unsure about entering
:10:50. > :10:54.into the relationship even though he is quite a dish. He's all right. I
:10:55. > :11:00.think she's very vulnerable because of her alcoholism in the past. She's
:11:01. > :11:05.nervous about letting anybody in. So, it's not a romance that sails
:11:06. > :11:11.swimmingly. There are bumps along the way. The Christmas special, how
:11:12. > :11:15.much of a highlight was it to go out to South Africia and what did the
:11:16. > :11:18.locals make of it all They couldn't believe it when they said we were
:11:19. > :11:22.going to South Africia. We thought they were joking. An amazing
:11:23. > :11:28.experience to spend a month in the country. You get a sense of it and
:11:29. > :11:39.how it works and how the politics, work in the country and how it is.
:11:40. > :11:43.How off the beaten track were you? We filmed in town ships. The set
:11:44. > :11:48.designers had to do little to change them as if they were 62. That's
:11:49. > :11:52.quite troubling, still. It was a real eye opener. South Africia is
:11:53. > :11:55.the most beautiful country. The sunsets were golden. There are quite
:11:56. > :12:01.a few of them in the Christmas special. The light is so magical,
:12:02. > :12:05.stunning. Your character, Trixie, per a Caesarean section quite a jump
:12:06. > :12:11.up for her. Is that her entering into a more medical role, is that
:12:12. > :12:14.part of her conjectory? I hope so, that's for the writers to decide.
:12:15. > :12:18.What I like about the character is, she's gone from being very much like
:12:19. > :12:23.the bubbly blonde who, you know, was having a laugh about boys most of
:12:24. > :12:26.the time. She's come through to six years later, performing a caesarean.
:12:27. > :12:30.It's exciting to be with a character for so long and see where that will
:12:31. > :12:33.take her in the future. You mentioned her alcohol problem, is
:12:34. > :12:38.that something you would like to explore within the character as an
:12:39. > :12:42.actor it's probably a gift? It owes the storyline that. It's something
:12:43. > :12:46.that never leaves people. It's a constant battle. That can't be
:12:47. > :12:50.forgotten about. It's engaging for a lot of viewers. There are people who
:12:51. > :12:59.would like to thank you tonight. You will be amazing. I have the Frinton
:13:00. > :13:08.and Walton Gazette here. I will read you this headline "sister helps
:13:09. > :13:13.deliver baby Dolcie by the A120 using tips from the TV show Call the
:13:14. > :13:17.Midwife. We have Dolcie here tonight. Looking beautiful. Oh, my
:13:18. > :13:27.word. It was 11 months ago then. Yes. What was happening? What was
:13:28. > :13:31.the situation, go on? Aunty Sam. We were sent home from the hospital.
:13:32. > :13:35.She wasn't in labour. Go home. We got to my house shech was in so.
:13:36. > :13:40.Pain we had to take her back. We got into the car. By the time we got to
:13:41. > :13:44.the end of of my road they's head was delivered. Danielle were you in
:13:45. > :13:49.the back. I was laying out in the back. Samantha was in the front and
:13:50. > :13:58.my husband was driving. You went for it then. Who were you channelling
:13:59. > :14:02.which character? Trixie! In the programme Trixie is so calm so
:14:03. > :14:07.collected. I just thought - try to act like her. Everyone was breathing
:14:08. > :14:12.altogether. So the head was born. Then by the time we got to the A120
:14:13. > :14:20.I delivered the baby, wrapped her up, had a little look at the time
:14:21. > :14:25.and... The sex we didn't if it was going to be a girl or boy. Handed
:14:26. > :14:30.her to mummy. No gas or air. What do you remember? Not a lot. You think -
:14:31. > :14:33.anything could have happened. If it wasn't for Call the Midwife and my
:14:34. > :14:37.sister I don't know what I would have done. Incredible. What did they
:14:38. > :14:43.say when you got back to hospital, you turned round and went straight
:14:44. > :14:48.back. This They say, oh, dear, rushed us in quickly. Cut the chord
:14:49. > :14:52.in the car. Got baby in. She is Dolcie Samantha after me. Let us
:14:53. > :14:58.give you a quiet little round of applause. It's lovely to see you.
:14:59. > :15:03.What about that, Helen, how inspiring you are?
:15:04. > :15:10.That is amazing. Have you had stories like that before? I haven't
:15:11. > :15:14.heard that, but I am always asked if I could deliver a baby for real. I
:15:15. > :15:19.always say that I think most people could, if they were under pressure.
:15:20. > :15:25.I couldn't, probably, let's be honest. But well done. Amazing, what
:15:26. > :15:30.a cute baby. Call the Midwife continues on Sunday, eight o'clock
:15:31. > :15:34.on BBC One. We will be talking about Helen's new play, Love in Idleness,
:15:35. > :15:41.later. I wouldn't bother coming back to us! Stay on Dolcie. Listen up,
:15:42. > :15:43.Dolcie. We've given two Shetlanders,
:15:44. > :15:45.who've never been back to islands of their ancestors,
:15:46. > :15:48.the chance to do just that as part Well, you'll find out
:15:49. > :16:06.when you meet Albert and Ernie. My name is Emma Massingale, and I
:16:07. > :16:10.train horses using a gentle and unobtrusive approach, without
:16:11. > :16:15.restraints. Last year, I spent a month on a remote island to see if I
:16:16. > :16:19.could train some wild ponies so they could join the ones I already have
:16:20. > :16:27.back-up my farm in Devon. I work with many different types of breeds.
:16:28. > :16:34.Two of my favourites are the Shetlands, Albert and Ernie. But if
:16:35. > :16:37.they are short on height, their temperament is superb for riding and
:16:38. > :16:43.working, and I always wanted to find out more about the breed. I have
:16:44. > :16:46.decided to take them back to their roots, the Shetland Isles, to find
:16:47. > :16:56.out how they have evolved into this unique animal. It is the most
:16:57. > :16:59.northerly point of the UK, with 100 islands in the group, only 15 of
:17:00. > :17:02.which are inhabited. I'm so excited, we are nearly at the Shetland
:17:03. > :17:07.Islands. To delve into their history, we are going to explore the
:17:08. > :17:12.land and roam amongst some of the native ponies, which is going to be
:17:13. > :17:16.a challenge for them and me. For over 2000 years, they have been used
:17:17. > :17:20.for domestic use. But although Shetland ponies grow no taller than
:17:21. > :17:26.42 inches, for their size they are the strongest of all breeds. They
:17:27. > :17:29.form the backbone of one of the Shetland's most important ways of
:17:30. > :17:35.life, crofting. This family has farmed here for generations. They
:17:36. > :17:41.were vital, going back to the years when you had to use them for
:17:42. > :17:45.ploughing, for transport, for taking fuel back to the croft house. They
:17:46. > :17:50.were essential, really. The fact they are so small, as well. It meant
:17:51. > :17:54.they didn't eat so much grass. Over the centuries, they have evolved to
:17:55. > :17:57.become hardy animals able to withstand the harsh winters the
:17:58. > :18:02.islands have to endure. The coats are perfect for the extreme weather,
:18:03. > :18:06.Finance LP in summer months, and doubling up for extra insulation in
:18:07. > :18:12.the winter. In the colder months, the lack of grazing makes it harder,
:18:13. > :18:15.so they have been known to snack on seaweed. They have just tried it,
:18:16. > :18:23.I'm not convinced they think it is very tasty. They were also used to
:18:24. > :18:27.collect seaweed, which is put on the land as fertiliser. I had a go with
:18:28. > :18:34.Albert, using the old, traditional method. These baskets, you have one
:18:35. > :18:39.each side. That keeps it balanced. Then we put the seaweed in. It
:18:40. > :18:42.wasn't just their strength that made them useful. Fishermen would use
:18:43. > :18:52.their tail hairs and twine them together to attach fishing line to
:18:53. > :18:56.the hook. Let's see if we can catch a fish. Albert and Ernie Waite on
:18:57. > :19:02.the shore for my return. Unfortunately, it is not good news.
:19:03. > :19:10.No Joy fishing whatsoever. Noodles all round. It would be easier if I
:19:11. > :19:19.just ate grass. You don't want noodles. He says, what is this? You
:19:20. > :19:24.won't like them. That's gross! After a busy day, it is time to settle
:19:25. > :19:28.down for the night. Believe it or not, these two Akim campers. We have
:19:29. > :19:35.camped on the moors before, but nowhere as stunning as this.
:19:36. > :19:40.Although they like their home comforts, like their blankets... I'm
:19:41. > :19:44.not sure this is giving them a true experience. Tomorrow, the adventure
:19:45. > :19:48.continues. Bernie gets stubborn when I try to get him on the boat.
:19:49. > :19:51.Tempers frayed when I tried to introduce them to a herd of native
:19:52. > :19:55.Shetland ponies. We will find out how they get on in
:19:56. > :19:58.about 30 minutes. Last June, in the midst
:19:59. > :20:01.of the Brexit debate, we were all shocked by the news that
:20:02. > :20:04.in Batley, West Yorkshire, local MP, Jo Cox, was murdered
:20:05. > :20:06.by a man with links A wife and mother, as well as an MP,
:20:07. > :20:11.Jo's death led to some amazing Jo's husband, Brendan,
:20:12. > :20:19.has been campaigning ever since to turn the tragedy of Jo's
:20:20. > :20:32.murder into a force for good It has been a long day of big
:20:33. > :20:36.announcements. First, eight months on, how are you and the family
:20:37. > :20:41.coping? It still feels very early. I think when something... You know,
:20:42. > :20:44.anybody who has lost anybody, the first few weeks are a whirlwind.
:20:45. > :20:49.Particularly when it is something like this, so sudden and violent, it
:20:50. > :20:53.takes a long time to take it in. A lot of the time it still feels like
:20:54. > :20:57.I am living in shock. And then there are moments when it sinks in and the
:20:58. > :21:00.reality of the situation, the permanence of it. It is one of the
:21:01. > :21:04.few things in my life that I have not been able to do anything about.
:21:05. > :21:10.There is no fixing it, you just have to deal with it as best you can.
:21:11. > :21:12.That feels horrible. So The Great Get Together is your attempt to turn
:21:13. > :21:19.something so horrible and seronegative into a positive? -- and
:21:20. > :21:25.so negative. You can see from some of those pictures. Jo have this
:21:26. > :21:29.amazing energy. She was a ball of enthusiasm. She loved life. We
:21:30. > :21:32.didn't want the anniversary to be a solemn thing where everybody was
:21:33. > :21:36.depressed about life. We wanted it to be something that represented
:21:37. > :21:40.her. She loved to party, she liked getting together with neighbours.
:21:41. > :21:45.The reason this was done was to try to divide amenities. We couldn't
:21:46. > :21:51.think of anything better than to show how United we are. On the
:21:52. > :21:55.weekend, people getting together, sharing food with their neighbours.
:21:56. > :21:59.Celebrating the things that we have in common. You had a high-profile
:22:00. > :22:05.launch. The Duchess of Cornwall. Jamie Oliver as well. You have just
:22:06. > :22:11.been getting us out there. People that want to be able to show their
:22:12. > :22:14.support, how can they get involved? It has been an incredible engagement
:22:15. > :22:22.already. We have been working with The Big Lunch, organisations from
:22:23. > :22:32.the Premier League, Help For Heroes, the trade unions, faith groups, huge
:22:33. > :22:36.positivity. The RSPB. I think we are tapping into something. People are
:22:37. > :22:40.sick of the nastiness, the tone of politics, whichever way you voted in
:22:41. > :22:43.the referendum, which ever way you vote in elections, that is not what
:22:44. > :22:48.defines you. I think people are crying out for those moments, to
:22:49. > :22:51.bring ourselves back together. Being British, we need an excuse to do
:22:52. > :22:55.that. We are not great at reaching out to neighbours. We hope that
:22:56. > :23:03.people will take part. We would love you to go to The Great Get Together
:23:04. > :23:07.website, if you want to put on a street party, if you go on the
:23:08. > :23:10.website, we will give you the details of how to get involved and
:23:11. > :23:16.whether local events are going to be. Today, you were doing cupcakes
:23:17. > :23:23.barbecues, picnics, basically any event, however small. Sadly, it is
:23:24. > :23:30.just an excuse to get together. Often, when you live in a community,
:23:31. > :23:37.he wanted to and you are looking for the excuse to start the
:23:38. > :23:42.conversation. We were making cupcakes, the Duchess of Cornwall
:23:43. > :23:47.was on the case. Did she do one of these? You might be able to guess.
:23:48. > :23:53.Are you saying it is good or bad? Think this was hers. She had a very
:23:54. > :24:04.freestyle approach! Jamie Oliver had a more practised arm. I did not do
:24:05. > :24:07.one. Is there a significance to the butterfly? Not that I am aware of,
:24:08. > :24:17.you can eat them. They are edible paper. I am worried they might get
:24:18. > :24:21.stuck in my teeth when talking to the Duchess. I haven't spent much
:24:22. > :24:27.time with royalty. I am sure it has been an emotional day, you must be
:24:28. > :24:31.shattered. I am going to put the kids to bed and hope they don't wake
:24:32. > :24:33.me up at 4am. Thank you for joining us.
:24:34. > :24:36.If you're a fan of American art - or pitchforks -
:24:37. > :24:38.you might want to get down to the Royal Academy
:24:39. > :24:43.That's because a new exhibition is opening and the star of the show
:24:44. > :24:48.is a famous painting that has never left the US before.
:24:49. > :24:55.Anita has been for an exclusive preview. It is recognisable to
:24:56. > :25:01.people around the world, many who hardly know its name or even that it
:25:02. > :25:05.is from a painting. Here it is, in the flesh, American Gothic, painted
:25:06. > :25:08.by Grant Wood in 1930. It is hanging in the Royal Academy as part of a
:25:09. > :25:14.brand-new exhibition. It is the first time it has ever been in the
:25:15. > :25:18.UK. Give me a bit of history, for somebody that doesn't know anything
:25:19. > :25:22.about it. Grant Wood, from Iowa, he took a photograph of a house when he
:25:23. > :25:25.was driving through a town. He posed to his dentist and younger sister in
:25:26. > :25:31.front of it. He had the dentist hold this pitchfork and produce an
:25:32. > :25:35.amazing double portrait. They could be anybody. These communities were
:25:36. > :25:38.being left behind. Are they representing ordinary people in
:25:39. > :25:45.America at the time? Sort of like guardians of the past. What does it
:25:46. > :25:48.say to us in Britain? Tells us about a Time in America when things were
:25:49. > :25:53.very uncertain, the future was unknown. What is relevant is that we
:25:54. > :25:59.are kind of confronting that again. What do you think they are thinking?
:26:00. > :26:02.He's looking to you as if he is saying, I dare you to come any
:26:03. > :26:07.closer. She is feeling unsettled by this. The charm of the painting for
:26:08. > :26:12.me is that it represents ordinary people, with everyday thoughts and
:26:13. > :26:17.desires, and elevates them to icons. So, what are ordinary people
:26:18. > :26:23.thinking about today? I have enlisted some help us to find out.
:26:24. > :26:27.If he would step into my studio. No expense spared. We are going to give
:26:28. > :26:32.you that. What is on your mind? I have a nice lunch, I would like to
:26:33. > :26:36.find somewhere to sit down. Whether I am going to be able to find the
:26:37. > :26:44.dress I need for my daughter's 40th. Work, I am going to be late.
:26:45. > :26:53.Starting a new job. What are you thinking about? I was thinking it
:26:54. > :26:59.was wonderful for her to ring me to London for my birthday. I am having
:27:00. > :27:05.a very mellow day, really mellow. We are celebrating my husband's
:27:06. > :27:13.birthday. I'm looking forward to the show and my dinner. And how amazing
:27:14. > :27:20.your wife is? Yes, you are reading my mind. I'm hungry, contemplating
:27:21. > :27:22.whether to go home or not. I'm really stressed, I started
:27:23. > :27:31.accounting and I am contemplating how I will learn all of this. Were
:27:32. > :27:36.to hit the shops, the children I left behind. She is the only one
:27:37. > :27:43.prepared to come shopping with me. What is going on in your mind?
:27:44. > :28:10.You don't want to know what has just been going on.
:28:11. > :28:22.Am I going to break for you? We 14? I was upset with the money that you
:28:23. > :28:27.gave Fergal. You wouldn't apologise or admit that you had done anything
:28:28. > :28:33.wrong. It's a tough time. There is a lot of... Brexit! You know? Your new
:28:34. > :28:42.President. Don't put that on me! I'm just saying it is a tough time.
:28:43. > :28:50.Welcome. So, you guys get pregnant after a quick... You know? A casual
:28:51. > :28:59.fling. You decide to get hitched pretty early. Where did the idea
:29:00. > :29:04.come from? Our lives. In real life, we have 23 kids between the two of
:29:05. > :29:09.us. Separate marriages. When you have kids, a large portion of your
:29:10. > :29:13.life ends. That is all you think about. We are coming up to the third
:29:14. > :29:22.series. Can you bring everybody up-to-date with what happened, why
:29:23. > :29:25.you are where you are? Yes, they have a fling, they get married. The
:29:26. > :29:29.first series is about them getting to know each other while being
:29:30. > :29:33.pregnant and having lots of terrible things happening to them, including
:29:34. > :29:39.having a baby. The second series is about them staying in love while
:29:40. > :29:46.having children. There is a big-time jump between one and two. Two and a
:29:47. > :29:50.half years pass. The third series is more of the same. Now they have
:29:51. > :29:54.decided they are together and that is it. No matter what terrible thing
:29:55. > :30:02.happens to them, they will deal with it. Were they reluctantly wallowing
:30:03. > :30:14.in the fact they can't go anywhere? Still in love. Series one was a lust
:30:15. > :30:20.story, if two was an endurance test, three is a love story. How well did
:30:21. > :30:24.you know each other? This is incredibly personal. Drawing on your
:30:25. > :30:30.own experiences? Series one, we would say, don't hate me, but a few
:30:31. > :30:34.years ago, I... Series three, I already know you hate me, listen. In
:30:35. > :30:42.the beginning we were tentatively be, here is an idea. Shocked at each
:30:43. > :30:43.other! We know pretty terrible things about each other and it all
:30:44. > :30:58.goes into the show. Can you say the child's name? I can
:30:59. > :31:02.say it. That wasn't great. That was one of the MEP memorable moments
:31:03. > :31:08.from the first series was naming the baby with the name that was close to
:31:09. > :31:13.your heart, but a little tricky. It doesn't run off the tongue. Sharon
:31:14. > :31:21.grew up in a strange land, far off land, far beyond the mists called
:31:22. > :31:33.Ire-land, people talk funny there. I can say that. You are out numbered.
:31:34. > :31:36.I wanted to call her a name my husband couldn't pronounce. I
:31:37. > :31:40.started crying. He thought I was going to push the issue that he
:31:41. > :31:43.would spend his life not being able to pronounce his daughter's name. We
:31:44. > :31:49.thought that would be a funny thing. It took you a while. Now you are
:31:50. > :31:54.perfect with it. Got it. What about chucking the sheets out the window.
:31:55. > :31:59.Was that based on anything? My mum did that. My mum was pregnant. I was
:32:00. > :32:02.outside of her body and vomiting in her bed. I vomited on the other hand
:32:03. > :32:06.it. She balled everything up and threw it out the window. My dad came
:32:07. > :32:11.home from work and was like, oh, God, again! He wasn't bagging up a
:32:12. > :32:17.dead dog at the time. We used our imagination as well. It's a mix of
:32:18. > :32:23.the two. As an Irish woman watching it there are points when I go - what
:32:24. > :32:28.is your mum thinking, awkward conversations afterwards? No, my mum
:32:29. > :32:34.loves it. I mean, my mum and dad are both in their 70s and they love it.
:32:35. > :32:39.I don't think... I'm worried about them seeing the first episode of
:32:40. > :32:46.Series 1, it's a bit rude, I guess. It's all rude. No, they're fine.
:32:47. > :32:52.They are OK. Good. Carrie Fisher played your mum. She sure did. How
:32:53. > :32:55.did that come about? We wrote a postcard to Hollywood. We didn't
:32:56. > :33:00.know anybody I who knew her. There was no back channel negotiation. We
:33:01. > :33:03.wrote her, we sent all the scripts for the first series to her agent
:33:04. > :33:09.and the pilot and said - maybe show this to her. We figured they would
:33:10. > :33:13.throw it in the trash, rubbish, in British English. She decided to do
:33:14. > :33:18.the show. Which is shocking. It's still shocking. We were surprised
:33:19. > :33:23.when she turned up on set. We knew we had booked her. Until she was on
:33:24. > :33:28.set we thought she would pull out. It was wonderful to her in the show.
:33:29. > :33:35.Wonderful getting to know her. You saw her just before hand before she
:33:36. > :33:40.died. She filmed up to a few days before. She left to go home. We were
:33:41. > :33:44.all hanging out with her. As we dpot to know her, we were afraid to
:33:45. > :33:51.really use her. We put her in little bits. Didn't know she would come
:33:52. > :33:58.back for Series 2. ? In seer Series 3 she is a bill part. Hill lir
:33:59. > :34:05.lairious, wonderful and poignant. Writing and starring in it a touch
:34:06. > :34:11.of control freakness on set with Carrie... You had to let her do her
:34:12. > :34:18.own thing. Other characters would be, can we improvise? She doesn't
:34:19. > :34:22.ask. It's better than we wrote. She starts singing a song. Watching your
:34:23. > :34:28.face while you look at the lips you were doing all the lines and timing
:34:29. > :34:36.right. I don't know if you were, but you were. I hope you're joking.
:34:37. > :34:42.That's intense. The new series of Catastrophe starts next Tuesday at
:34:43. > :34:48.10.00pm on Channel 4. We have lots of Dorises sent in. Let's go. This
:34:49. > :34:51.is Julie's chicken, Doris who lives with the whole family in
:34:52. > :35:01.Bedfordshire. This is Doris who lives in a nursing home in Essex. 87
:35:02. > :35:05.today! Very good this is the Doris in Paul's lives. This because Storm
:35:06. > :35:12.Doris is on the way. It was on the news earlier on, Rob, there you go.
:35:13. > :35:14.With all this talk of delivering and working with children,
:35:15. > :35:16.we thought we'd honour a true unsung hero.
:35:17. > :35:19.Here's Michael Moseley on how one man's eureka moment has helped
:35:20. > :35:27.If you visit a neonatal intensive-care unit, there's one
:35:28. > :35:34.condition you will see more than any other. It affects eight out of ten
:35:35. > :35:40.premature babies. This is baby Clara. She was born premature. After
:35:41. > :35:44.she was born she developed a yellow contigency to her skin, a sign her
:35:45. > :35:49.liver was struggling to clean her blood. It's known as jaundice. It's
:35:50. > :35:53.common. Two of my kids had jaundice in severe cases it can be
:35:54. > :36:03.life-threatening. These days it can be cured by nothing more than blue
:36:04. > :36:08.light. The simple but ingenious treatment is thanks to the
:36:09. > :36:13.pioneering work of a doctor called, Dick Cremer. When he was a junior
:36:14. > :36:23.doctor in the 1950s the treatment was much more extreme for jaundice.
:36:24. > :36:29.Dr Fox is a consultant. She would have had invasive treatment called
:36:30. > :36:34.an exchange blood tran fusion. -- transfusion. Cremer knew they were
:36:35. > :36:40.traumatic for the babies and parents. Katherine is Cremer's
:36:41. > :36:45.daughter. He was a neo register for the first time. Part of his role was
:36:46. > :36:49.to do exchange transfusion in very tiny babies and he was apprehensive
:36:50. > :36:52.about that. One of the reasons he was keen be to avoid transfusions
:36:53. > :36:57.was because there were deaths of babies that they couldn't explain.
:36:58. > :37:05.Cremer was determined to find a better treatment. Jaundice in babies
:37:06. > :37:11.is caused by the build-up of waste product in blood called bilirubin.
:37:12. > :37:17.Inspiration for a different way to remove this toxic build-up came from
:37:18. > :37:21.a senior nurse Cremer worked with. Nurse Ward was a believer in fresh
:37:22. > :37:27.air and sunshine. She took babies out of their incubators and into the
:37:28. > :37:34.garden. After one particular walk in the sunshine with a jaundice baby,
:37:35. > :37:38.Nurse Ward showed Cremer and the other doctors something remarkable.
:37:39. > :37:43.Where the baby's skin was exposed to the sun light the signs of jaundice
:37:44. > :37:48.were fading. No-one knew if the blood itself was affected. The
:37:49. > :37:53.crucial breakthrough came when the blood sample from a jaundice baby
:37:54. > :37:58.was left on a sunny window sill. There was a surprising change in the
:37:59. > :38:05.serum, the watery component of blood. Sally Brady is a clinical
:38:06. > :38:08.biochemist. For a baby with jaundice, bilirubin is orange, their
:38:09. > :38:13.serum will look orange like this sample. The sample left on the
:38:14. > :38:19.window sill, when they analysed it the serum was green. That is
:38:20. > :38:23.different. The sunshine converted bilirubin to this pigment. It isn't
:38:24. > :38:27.dangerous to babies. Cremer had cracked the chemistry. Now he needed
:38:28. > :38:31.to turn this discovery into a treatment. He knew he couldn't rely
:38:32. > :38:41.on the British sunshine. He started looking for an alternative. Cremer
:38:42. > :38:46.and colleagues tested all sorts of lightbulbs. In the end it was blue
:38:47. > :38:51.fluorescent light that proved to be best at breaking down the toxic
:38:52. > :38:55.bilirubin. Cremer's team designed a light machine to treat jaundice and
:38:56. > :39:00.it revolutionised treatment of this condition. He was so modest, I think
:39:01. > :39:03.it didn't occur to him it was something that would end up in
:39:04. > :39:08.hospitals all over the world affecting quite so many millions of
:39:09. > :39:13.babies as it subsequently did. I assume you are quietly proud? I'm
:39:14. > :39:18.loudly proud. Little Clara is responding well to her treatment,
:39:19. > :39:22.it's remarkable that a simple light can cure such a serious condition.
:39:23. > :39:32.Michael is here now. How is baby Clara doing? Really well. One of
:39:33. > :39:38.three triplets. There she is, looking cheerful. A team of
:39:39. > :39:46.triplets. We are doing research for you tonight, Helen. Doing my job for
:39:47. > :39:51.me. How do you do your research as far as midwife is concerned? We have
:39:52. > :39:56.a brilliant midwifery adviser on set to talk through everything with us,
:39:57. > :40:01.really. Then when we did the caesarean I was offered to watch
:40:02. > :40:08.one. Because I'm squemish I couldn't I watched YouTube videos. That's it
:40:09. > :40:12.really. You might be able to help out more now. You will go through
:40:13. > :40:16.the history of how various inventions came about in the world?
:40:17. > :40:19.The great ones. The incubator. Premature babies. That was invented
:40:20. > :40:23.in France. British and American doctors didn't see any point in them
:40:24. > :40:29.in keeping babies alive who were young, let them go was kind of the
:40:30. > :40:33.view. Martin Couney, entrepreneur, he decided he would build and use
:40:34. > :40:37.them. That is him there as an older guy. He is holding the babies up
:40:38. > :40:43.like puppets. He was quite a character. Those are very small.
:40:44. > :40:52.Quite a character! The thing was, babies cost quite a lot to keep
:40:53. > :40:58.going $15. The best way to do it was to exhibit them. You can go and see
:40:59. > :41:08.the Living Babies. Get a candy floss. That is how he raised money?
:41:09. > :41:13.Absolutely. He dressed them up in big clothes so they looked tiny.
:41:14. > :41:17.It's controversial. This was very popular, as you can imagine.s since
:41:18. > :41:22.the medical profession was largely ignoring him he estimates he saved
:41:23. > :41:33.around 7,000 to 10,000 as a result of this technique. He came to Earl's
:41:34. > :41:39.Court, did an exhibition here. How that is doing healthcare now. Have
:41:40. > :41:49.you to go to a carnival and film it! He did it for 40 years. Really? What
:41:50. > :41:54.is the story with baby monitors? Charles Lindbergh, 19 30s. That is
:41:55. > :42:06.the man. His older son is kidnapped from the house and this obviously
:42:07. > :42:11.created anger throughout the States. He is concerned and denines and gets
:42:12. > :42:16.his staff to build a baby monitor. That is not Charles. That is the man
:42:17. > :42:24.who wanted to - An early baby monitor. Can you imagine using that.
:42:25. > :42:28.Radio Nurse. It did not take off. It Costello $2,000 back then. Here we
:42:29. > :42:31.had the Baby Nurse. He fed it through the electrical system as
:42:32. > :42:35.well. It would take another 40 years before anyone took it seriously.
:42:36. > :42:40.That was where the stuff comes from. It evolved quite a lot now. He kept
:42:41. > :42:46.picking up other conversations. That was a major flaw. You would get the
:42:47. > :42:50.radio and the traffic report from the cops. It wasn't perfect. You
:42:51. > :42:54.used to listen in to what babies were doing. Now you can see what
:42:55. > :42:59.they are up to. There are some very - We are not sure whether or not
:43:00. > :43:06.this is real. Have you seen this. The core strength on this baby is
:43:07. > :43:11.remarkable. I'm sure it's not real. That looks more comedy than reality.
:43:12. > :43:16.I remember those days! You have a new series on the science of food.
:43:17. > :43:21.That is right. You have been sampling breast milk? I have. It's
:43:22. > :43:27.been a long time since I sampled breast milk. Finger in. Producer's
:43:28. > :43:34.friend donated it. Down it goes. What did you find out? Really that
:43:35. > :43:39.it's a lot sweeter than cows milk. I break it down there. It contains
:43:40. > :43:46.four grams of fat to eight grams of sugar. Would you give it a go, your
:43:47. > :43:50.face says might not. These are breast milk cocktails you brought
:43:51. > :44:00.for us! One for everyone in the audience. It's delicious. It's
:44:01. > :44:11.different. Have you drank it? My breast milk is delicious. What is
:44:12. > :44:17.interesting about this is the fact that if you look at that ratio two
:44:18. > :44:21.to one of sugar to fat. We don't love sugar in the sense we don't get
:44:22. > :44:26.a bowl full. If you mix them together in that race owe you get
:44:27. > :44:30.ice-cream, chocolate, chocolate biscuits and cake. They have the
:44:31. > :44:34.ration owe of two units of carbs to one of fat. My God. I could have
:44:35. > :44:38.made all of those things! There you are. And shared it out. The things
:44:39. > :44:51.you learn on the One Show. Thank you, Michael. The Secrets of Your
:44:52. > :44:53.Food starts Friday 9.00pm on BBC Two.
:44:54. > :44:56.Back to the Shetland Islands, where Albert and Ernie are trying
:44:57. > :45:02.And, I'm afraid, they're having a bit of mare.
:45:03. > :45:08.I've brought Albert and Ernie on a trip to the island of their
:45:09. > :45:12.ancestors, the Shetland Islands, to discover the history of this hardy
:45:13. > :45:18.breed. They feel very at home, they are grooming each other. Is it my
:45:19. > :45:21.turn? Good boy! During the 19th century, the increased popularity of
:45:22. > :45:25.Shetland ponies as pets and the numbers needed to work down coal
:45:26. > :45:32.mines led to a reduction of quality stallions left on the islands. The
:45:33. > :45:38.Shetland ponies society was formed to protect their purity. Bernie has
:45:39. > :45:44.a passport show that he is pure bred. Steve Rendell has been looking
:45:45. > :45:50.into his ancestry. He traces right the way back through to the very
:45:51. > :45:53.beginning of the studbook. He goes right back to Jack, that was is that
:45:54. > :46:02.the Lord Londonderry stood in Shetland. It was from the 1870s
:46:03. > :46:07.onwards. Probably the most prolific stallion in the breed. We can say
:46:08. > :46:10.that his ancestors come from Shetland? Even know he wasn't born
:46:11. > :46:15.here, he is certainly part of the rich heritage of the island. We are
:46:16. > :46:18.going to a small island to the west on the mainland. We are going to
:46:19. > :46:24.meet some of his distant cousins. In order to get there, we need to
:46:25. > :46:29.travel by boat, not something they are used to. Good boy. It seems
:46:30. > :46:33.Ernie is not completely on board with the plan.
:46:34. > :46:44.He says, I'm scared. Good lad. Crofters would regularly squeeze
:46:45. > :46:51.them onto boats to transport them from island to island. Good to go.
:46:52. > :46:54.Because I like a challenge, we are all going to spend the night out
:46:55. > :46:57.here, giving Albert and Ernie H Anstey and integrate with the
:46:58. > :47:03.Shetland ponies that live freely on the island. The herds take three
:47:04. > :47:07.weeks to form, so I'm not expecting them to be best buddies by the
:47:08. > :47:11.morning. Hopefully they will get to experience a bit of what life would
:47:12. > :47:15.have been like in the Shetlands. After the initial family welcome,
:47:16. > :47:21.one of them is not so keen on the new arrivals and tempers fray. The
:47:22. > :47:28.one that keeps seeing them off, it is her job to make the decisions for
:47:29. > :47:33.the hook. At the moment, they are being pushed away. Hopefully they
:47:34. > :47:37.will be able to get closer and she will not be so desperate to push
:47:38. > :47:41.them away. My priority is to find somewhere to sleep. My sleeping
:47:42. > :47:45.quarters don't look much. I've just got a bag with my sleeping bag
:47:46. > :47:49.inside. It's really nice, I've got the ponies over there. Shetland
:47:50. > :47:55.ponies, like all horses, only need a couple of hours of sleep a day, and
:47:56. > :47:57.they tend to power nap for 15 minutes at a time. It's going to be
:47:58. > :48:12.a restless night. That is the lead mare. That is what
:48:13. > :48:17.it was like for the rest of the evening. I had an incredible night
:48:18. > :48:22.last night. It was really windy. All I could hear was the ponies making
:48:23. > :48:25.lots of squeaking, socialising. It's been incredible seeing Albert and
:48:26. > :48:31.Ernie out in the wild, with their friends. Although they have bonded
:48:32. > :48:35.with some of the herd, it is time to say farewell. It has been absolutely
:48:36. > :48:40.amazing, seeing them here, in their native land, where they are supposed
:48:41. > :48:43.to be, in the Shetland Islands. It is certainly a tough and rugged
:48:44. > :48:46.place to live. You can see why they have adapted so well to their
:48:47. > :48:50.environment. As for Albert and Ernie, they know a different life.
:48:51. > :48:55.That life is back home in Devon with me.
:48:56. > :49:03.Quite a journey home. Looks like they had a lovely time. They picked
:49:04. > :49:10.up some souvenirs? According to the holiday snaps, these lovely jumpers.
:49:11. > :49:19.It's more of a cardigan, you can see the nice buttons down the front.
:49:20. > :49:27.That should be illegal. How much dog is in those ponies? What percentage?
:49:28. > :49:31.There was no reference of dog, I can say that with good authority, we
:49:32. > :49:37.have one on our farm. There he is, with his winter coat. Helen, let's
:49:38. > :49:43.talk about your new play. It is called Love in Idleness. Trevor Nunn
:49:44. > :49:50.is directing it. You have come from rehearsals. A quick change. It is a
:49:51. > :49:54.take on Hamlet? There is a rough theme of that through the play. It
:49:55. > :49:58.is set at the end of the Second World War. It's about a brilliant,
:49:59. > :50:02.young, handsome man called Michael, who is 18. He comes back from being
:50:03. > :50:08.evacuated to Canada. He comes back home to see father has died, his
:50:09. > :50:15.mother is living with a war cabinet minister, a Tory. Michael is a
:50:16. > :50:20.strong socialist. There is a strong political theme that is probably
:50:21. > :50:27.quite relevant. I play Sir John Fletcher's younger wife, a bit of a
:50:28. > :50:37.money grasping naughty lady, Lady Diana Fletcher. She gets intertwined
:50:38. > :50:41.in the, the comedy of it all. Trixie, delivering babies and being
:50:42. > :50:52.fabulous, and then this character of a minx? She is bit of a one. Lovely
:50:53. > :50:55.cast. Great cast, Anthony head, good old Trevor directing. It
:50:56. > :50:59.interesting, the fact that you like to keep that stage side of things
:51:00. > :51:04.going, as well as TV drama. Is that the same with you, Sharon? You have
:51:05. > :51:09.done some onstage as well. How do you think they relate? Well, I have
:51:10. > :51:16.only done a little tiny bit of stage. I like that, I liked the
:51:17. > :51:24.immediacy of it. It is nice to get a response from an audience that is
:51:25. > :51:32.right there. Also, it is a pain. Isn't it? Every night, the same
:51:33. > :51:38.thing. It is nice when you do short runs, this is a six week run. When
:51:39. > :51:45.it is six years, obviously... You are looking like piggy in the
:51:46. > :51:49.middle. You do more stand-up? If I am on a stage, I like to be saying
:51:50. > :51:55.things that I thought in this terrible, sick mind of mine. That is
:51:56. > :52:03.very important, and I have to do that or I die. You won't be doing a
:52:04. > :52:08.turn on the West End? No. All the best with the rehearsals. I know you
:52:09. > :52:10.are at the stage where it is all... But I am sure it will be OK. Two
:52:11. > :52:13.weeks, it will be fine. Our next film is about
:52:14. > :52:15.a very serious subject. In 2012, the Supreme Court ruled
:52:16. > :52:18.that people convicted of sexual offences and placed on the sex
:52:19. > :52:20.offenders' register for life had As a result, 15 years
:52:21. > :52:25.after being released from prison, sex offenders in England and Wales
:52:26. > :52:27.can now apply to be And for many, that is
:52:28. > :52:42.extremely worrying. I am on my way to meet two amazing
:52:43. > :52:48.young women, both survivors of abuse, who have bravely waved their
:52:49. > :52:53.anonymity to speak to The One Show. The nice and 87, when they were just
:52:54. > :52:56.five and six years old, Kate Taylor and Ceri Jones were reviews that
:52:57. > :52:59.their school in the north of England. Going to court on
:53:00. > :53:03.prosecuting him didn't really help us. But getting him put on the sex
:53:04. > :53:08.offenders register for life meant we were protecting other children. At
:53:09. > :53:12.least we knew he could not do it to somebody else. But a chance phone
:53:13. > :53:17.call to the police led to cater finding out that her abuser had
:53:18. > :53:21.applied to appeal. I said, he can't, the judge put him on the sex
:53:22. > :53:25.offenders register for the rest of his life. That is when they told me
:53:26. > :53:28.that in 2012 the law had changed. It knocked me off my feet, completely.
:53:29. > :53:35.It was not what I was expecting to hear. He took away our human rights
:53:36. > :53:38.at six years old. He is being given human rights to come of this
:53:39. > :53:42.register. He should stay on for the rest of his life. Finding out the
:53:43. > :53:51.abuser had applied to be removed from the register was hard enough.
:53:52. > :53:56.For Kate the news was made more disturbing by the fact the victims
:53:57. > :54:00.may have never known about the appeal. They said they had not been
:54:01. > :54:04.able to locate us. South Yorkshire Police said they had been in the
:54:05. > :54:08.process of identifying victims when they were contacted by Kate and that
:54:09. > :54:12.they always seek to obtain victim views when an application like this
:54:13. > :54:16.is made. But it is not mandatory. The Home Office guidelines say that
:54:17. > :54:22.the decision to contact victims should be made on a case-by-case
:54:23. > :54:26.basis. Then Kate contacted the other victims. He got in touch with them
:54:27. > :54:31.all and they were interviewed by the police? The result was? The police
:54:32. > :54:37.came to see me and said that he was not going to be allowed off. Is that
:54:38. > :54:44.now for life? No, in eight years he gets to apply again. Kate and Kerry
:54:45. > :54:48.are angry that the abuser has the right to appeal to be taken off the
:54:49. > :54:52.register, and they are dismayed that victims are not automatically
:54:53. > :55:00.notified of any appeal. Both decisions are taken by a local
:55:01. > :55:04.police force. Michelle from the council for the management of sexual
:55:05. > :55:11.and violent offenders explains how it works. The rationale as to if
:55:12. > :55:16.they come off the register is whether or not they pose a risk of
:55:17. > :55:20.harm to the community. If they don't, they will probably be allowed
:55:21. > :55:26.to come off registration. According to latest figures, there are 52,770
:55:27. > :55:34.sex offenders on the register. Just over 1200 have applied come off it.
:55:35. > :55:38.687 of those were approved. Michelle agrees that too few victims have
:55:39. > :55:46.been contacted. We have recognised there are lot victims that were not
:55:47. > :55:51.involved in the process and we want to improve that. The police say they
:55:52. > :55:54.are now introducing a new system. We have revamped the process and it is
:55:55. > :55:58.about to be launched, where the victim can come in at any time to
:55:59. > :56:03.the police force with express wishes of whether they want to be
:56:04. > :56:06.contacted. For Kate and Kerry, it is a step in the right direction. But
:56:07. > :56:10.they want the public to be made aware of the change in the law and a
:56:11. > :56:14.legal requirement for the police force to contact victims when an
:56:15. > :56:18.appeal is made. They are also backing a campaign to encourage more
:56:19. > :56:31.discussion of this issue in schools. Sex abuses such a taboo subject, two
:56:32. > :56:39.in three children never say anything. But we are talking now.
:56:40. > :56:44.Very brave to waive their anonymity. Why was the offender not named? In
:56:45. > :56:47.this case, there happens to be another teacher with the same name.
:56:48. > :56:52.We do not want them wrongly accused, so we chose not to name the
:56:53. > :56:56.offender. Since this has been come in, hundreds of people have been
:56:57. > :56:59.taken off the register. What does that mean? When you are on the
:57:00. > :57:02.register, you have to register details with the local police force
:57:03. > :57:06.within three days of your conviction, or being released from
:57:07. > :57:10.prison. That means you have to give your name, date of birth, address,
:57:11. > :57:14.but also whether you live with a child, in the same building as a
:57:15. > :57:17.child, things like your bank account details, passport. Plus, if you are
:57:18. > :57:21.going to be away for more than seven days you have to notify the police.
:57:22. > :57:25.You have to tell them if you are going abroad and giving details of
:57:26. > :57:29.travel plans. When you come off the register, you don't have to do any
:57:30. > :57:32.of that, you don't have to furnish them with that information. But you
:57:33. > :57:37.still have a criminal record, so if a sex offender came off the register
:57:38. > :57:41.but applied for a job in a position of trust, a teacher, working with
:57:42. > :57:47.vulnerable people, that conviction would still be flagged up. What is
:57:48. > :57:50.the criteria of coming off the list? Who decides? The local police force
:57:51. > :57:55.will make the review decision. They will look back at the original
:57:56. > :57:59.offence, how serious it was, the age of the victim, the difference in age
:58:00. > :58:08.between the offender and the victim. There will also take very careful
:58:09. > :58:12.notice of any evidence that came with the case in the first place.
:58:13. > :58:15.They will talk to local authorities, parole officers, people with
:58:16. > :58:20.day-to-day contact with the offender now. They will take the decision
:58:21. > :58:24.very seriously. It is a rigorous review, conducted by people high up
:58:25. > :58:29.in the police. Ultimately, it rests with the Chief Constable. You will
:58:30. > :58:35.be back tomorrow? People will have heard of the Independent Inquiry
:58:36. > :58:38.Into Child Sexual Abuse. It has been beset with problems. Tomorrow we
:58:39. > :58:43.have an exclusive interview with the chair of the inquiry. If you have
:58:44. > :58:46.been affected by any of the issues we have been talking about tonight,
:58:47. > :58:47.there is more information on the website.
:58:48. > :58:50.A huge thank you to Helen, Call the Midwife continues on Sunday
:58:51. > :58:58.Love in Idleness opens at the Menier Chocolate Factory on the 9th March.
:58:59. > :59:00.Tickets are on sale now, go and get them!
:59:01. > :59:03.Thanks too to Rob and Sharon, Catastrophe is back next Tuesday
:59:04. > :59:11.We'll be back tomorrow with Ant and Dec.
:59:12. > :59:17.See you then. Have a lovely evening. We are going to try to play golf
:59:18. > :59:19.from the top of the building! Let's see what happens.
