Hello and welcome to the One Show with Matt Baker. And Alex. And | :00:17. | :00:25. | |
tonight's guest is an actor on the up whose recent parts range from the | :00:26. | :00:29. | |
spiv Private Walker in Dad's Army to a cop under suspicion in Line of | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
Duty. Please welcome Daniel Mays. APPLAUSE I am part of the furniture | :00:39. | :00:42. | |
now. Your career has gone from strength | :00:43. | :00:46. | |
to strength, it was only a month ago for Dad's Army, nice to see you | :00:47. | :00:51. | |
again, but you have gone through all of this success thanks to Kat | :00:52. | :00:56. | |
Slater, haven't you? Yes, EastEnders was my first job after school. | :00:57. | :01:01. | |
Slater, haven't you? Yes, EastEnders Chained like a suffragette. How old | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
were you? It is 15 years ago. I was the ex-boyfriend of Kat Slater who | :01:07. | :01:11. | |
she unfortunately didn't tell she was moving to Albert Square and he | :01:12. | :01:14. | |
turns up, chained himself to the gate, jumps on top of a taxi. Not | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
possessive at all. No, I do it every day! Mike is also with us, the start | :01:22. | :01:28. | |
of spring, talking about wildlife found in unusual places and if you | :01:29. | :01:30. | |
have spotted a creature found in unusual places and if you | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
spot, such as a redcrested cardinal in Redcar or even this little | :01:35. | :01:36. | |
spot, such as a redcrested cardinal who know bobs about their | :01:37. | :01:42. | |
Billingsgate fish market, then send your pictures to the usual place -- | :01:43. | :01:47. | |
who now bobs about near Billingsgate fish market. | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
Also with this is Peter Taylor, whose documentary about terror in | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
Europe tomorrow has taken on new significance. Welcome, Peter. A | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
terrible day following the events in Brussels but were you surprised it | :01:59. | :02:02. | |
happened? I'm afraid I wasn't, because we have been spending the | :02:03. | :02:07. | |
months since the Paris attacks last November in investigating the | :02:08. | :02:11. | |
so-called Islamic State's network in Europe and in particular, the person | :02:12. | :02:14. | |
behind it, who was the ringleader behind it who was finally killed in | :02:15. | :02:19. | |
the showdown in Paris last November. All the indications were we have | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
seen many intelligence reports and have been through interrogations of | :02:24. | :02:28. | |
captured IS fighters who have been sent back to Europe to wreak death | :02:29. | :02:32. | |
and destruction and all the indications are, from the | :02:33. | :02:36. | |
intelligence reports we have seen, that the intelligence services, from | :02:37. | :02:39. | |
the beginning of last year, knew about this person and last year was | :02:40. | :02:45. | |
a race between our intelligence services and European and American | :02:46. | :02:48. | |
partners to locate and get this man, to stop him from doing what he knew | :02:49. | :02:54. | |
-- they knew what he was capable of doing and although he is dead, his | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
network I do not think died with him and I think this morning's tragic | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
events are an indication there are still Jihadist suicide bombers out | :03:04. | :03:10. | |
there. You had an enormous amount of knowledge anyway but was it an | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
eye-opener for you to do discover what you did in this process? I | :03:15. | :03:20. | |
always knew there was a threat to the UK anti-Europe, but until I | :03:21. | :03:26. | |
started going through a pile of intelligence documents in both our | :03:27. | :03:29. | |
agencies and European agencies, in particular pursuing the race against | :03:30. | :03:36. | |
Abaaoud, there was one document that illustrated MI6 and MI5 were very | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
concerned about Abaaoud, he had a meeting in October last year with | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
one of their European partners -- they had a meeting in October last | :03:44. | :03:47. | |
year with one of their European partners, they were concerned in | :03:48. | :03:51. | |
particular about an intelligence report that Abaaoud was preparing to | :03:52. | :03:56. | |
send 60 attackers to Europe, before he was killed, Abaaoud said he had | :03:57. | :04:01. | |
sent 90 attackers to Europe. Whether it is 60 or 90 or ten or 20, there | :04:02. | :04:05. | |
are still attackers out there as we saw this morning. You have kindly | :04:06. | :04:10. | |
brought a clip from tomorrow night's documentary and this clip is | :04:11. | :04:17. | |
concerning Abaaoud. Who is Abaaoud? He was brought up in the Brussels | :04:18. | :04:21. | |
district of Marlon Pack, he had a history of petty crime and spent | :04:22. | :04:26. | |
time in prison, where it is believed he was radicalised -- Molenbeek. His | :04:27. | :04:32. | |
solicitor was told they had seen a dramatic change when he was released | :04:33. | :04:36. | |
in 2012. Abaaoud was highly critical of how he was seeing his father | :04:37. | :04:47. | |
raise other children. In March of 2013, Abaaoud first travelled to | :04:48. | :04:51. | |
Syria to fight the Assad regime. At one point, he returned home to | :04:52. | :04:57. | |
Molenbeek, to capture his 13-year-old brother. He later | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
taunted his father on the phone. The father received a phone call, saying | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
do not search for him, you will not see him anymore. "I Will earn him | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
the real value of the Muslim religion. He is going with me to | :05:17. | :05:23. | |
Syria." Well, we know, Peter, that people from Britain have gone over | :05:24. | :05:26. | |
to Syria to join IS and have come back, so how worried should we be, | :05:27. | :05:31. | |
thinking about that? I think we should be concerned and I know | :05:32. | :05:34. | |
talking to our intelligence agencies and the police, they are very | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
concerned. It is estimated that around 300-400 of the 800 or so who | :05:40. | :05:44. | |
have gone have returned and each one of those is a potential attacker. | :05:45. | :05:49. | |
Keeping tabs on all of them is extraordinarily difficult. What | :05:50. | :05:52. | |
makes this morning's Mattek-Sands the attacks in Paris are different | :05:53. | :05:56. | |
is they were carried out by trained fighters, trained by Abaaoud and | :05:57. | :05:59. | |
trained by so-called Islamic State in Syria and sent back to attack. | :06:00. | :06:06. | |
The kind of is plots that have been stopped here since 77 have not been | :06:07. | :06:12. | |
carried out by returnees, it is still high on the list, but by | :06:13. | :06:16. | |
people inspired over the Internet by IS and its ideology. And in your | :06:17. | :06:22. | |
eyes, how prepared are we as a country in relation to those in | :06:23. | :06:26. | |
Europe? I think we are much better prepared. The fact that there has | :06:27. | :06:31. | |
not been a serious attack since the seven slash seven bombings is an | :06:32. | :06:34. | |
indication that our intelligence services have got their act together | :06:35. | :06:45. | |
-- since the 7/7 bombing. Unlike the American and European agencies, who | :06:46. | :06:47. | |
were not joined up, intelligence was not being shared. Here in the UK, | :06:48. | :06:51. | |
intelligence is shared between the intelligence agencies and the | :06:52. | :06:54. | |
police, they have a meeting every week, so all parts of the jigsaw | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
know what is going on and so far, the agencies have managed to keep us | :07:01. | :07:04. | |
secure, partly also because there is a thing called the English Channel | :07:05. | :07:07. | |
between us and Europe, but it would be wrong to be complacent and I know | :07:08. | :07:12. | |
the agencies are extremely worried about a mass casualty attack like | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
7/7 or like the attack in Brussels this morning, so we should not be | :07:18. | :07:21. | |
complacent. Peter, thank you becoming to talk to us, we know you | :07:22. | :07:24. | |
are very busy preparing this documentary and you can see the full | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
documentary Inside Europe's Terror Attacks tomorrow at nine o'clock on | :07:30. | :07:34. | |
BBC One. Now, starting today, every child in | :07:35. | :07:37. | |
their first year of secondary school in the UK will be given one of | :07:38. | :07:42. | |
these. And no doubt a million parents will have no idea what on | :07:43. | :07:45. | |
earth they are looking at here, so we will show you this. | :07:46. | :07:52. | |
Worth billions and generating well over a million jobs, Britain's | :07:53. | :07:55. | |
technology industry is booming. And to keep it that way, we need our | :07:56. | :08:01. | |
children to grow up fluent in coding, the language of computer | :08:02. | :08:06. | |
programming. And it is hoped by giving 1 million years seven | :08:07. | :08:09. | |
children are free BBC micro:bit, hand-held portable computer, coding | :08:10. | :08:17. | |
will become second nature -- a free BBC micro:bit. I am here for a sneak | :08:18. | :08:21. | |
preview. Software engineer David is leading the session. What do we hope | :08:22. | :08:27. | |
to achieve by kids having access to these? Instead of children being | :08:28. | :08:31. | |
consumers of technology, we want them to invent the future, | :08:32. | :08:34. | |
basically. So you have an idea and you write a little piece of code for | :08:35. | :08:38. | |
it and you can make the idea come to life. It may have taken the BBC and | :08:39. | :08:44. | |
31 industry partners years to develop but pupils here are already | :08:45. | :08:49. | |
happily writing code for their micro:bits and finding new uses for | :08:50. | :08:55. | |
them. So what are you doing? It is like a magic eight ball and if you | :08:56. | :08:59. | |
ask a question, it says yes, no or maybe. Is the One Show a good show? | :09:00. | :09:08. | |
Maybe. I think there is something wrong with your computer. | :09:09. | :09:12. | |
And while it might be small, it has big potential as three of our new | :09:13. | :09:17. | |
coders are about to find out. Here at the Jodrell Bank Observatory in | :09:18. | :09:23. | |
Cheshire, professor of astrophysics Tim O'Brien has a special challenge | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
for them. This is one of the world's biggest telescopes, it wears 2300 | :09:29. | :09:31. | |
tonnes and we will get you to use this to drive that around, to move | :09:32. | :09:39. | |
that telescope. -- it weighs 2300 tonnes. If they succeed, the | :09:40. | :09:42. | |
telescope won't just moved, it will pick up a signal from a pulsar, | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
rotating star pick up a signal from a pulsar, | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
away. Helped by our expert David, they will each code a micro:bit | :09:51. | :09:56. | |
away. Helped by our expert David, turn and tilt the model, | :09:57. | :09:56. | |
away. Helped by our expert David, move the wheel. Working | :09:57. | :10:02. | |
away. Helped by our expert David, Joe will be coding the | :10:03. | :10:04. | |
away. Helped by our expert David, the rotation and Millie will measure | :10:05. | :10:11. | |
the pulsar signal. We have made it so that when it | :10:12. | :10:13. | |
the pulsar signal. We have made it shows an animation of the star and | :10:14. | :10:18. | |
beeps. With the micro:bits programme, it is time to put their | :10:19. | :10:23. | |
programming to the test. It is beeping where the pulsar is. I am | :10:24. | :10:29. | |
going to tilted so it is pointing to the right of the light. And I am | :10:30. | :10:33. | |
going to press the button that will send the coordinates to the | :10:34. | :10:39. | |
telescope. It is moving, it is moving! I can see the numbers | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
changing. It is it weird to see it turning because of what you have | :10:44. | :10:50. | |
done -- is it weird? Yes, because it is only a tiny model. It has turned | :10:51. | :10:55. | |
into the right position. What will happen next? It is in the right | :10:56. | :11:01. | |
position but we needed to lock onto the pulsar, so I am going to press | :11:02. | :11:07. | |
the button. Good luck. And the beeping noise means they have done | :11:08. | :11:10. | |
it. Well done, well done. | :11:11. | :11:19. | |
Well, I think Danny just summed that up, "That is pretty nifty." We are | :11:20. | :11:22. | |
still none the wiser but we have Ross with us, Ross you are 15 now, | :11:23. | :11:27. | |
but you started coding when you were eight and you will show us and help | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
us get our heads around it. Are you a techie, Danny? I can send an | :11:33. | :11:37. | |
e-mail. I can't make satellites turnaround yet. You will do by the | :11:38. | :11:42. | |
time you leave the show tonight. So, Ross, you have been with us this | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
afternoon making a wonderful code for the micro:bit you have got. We | :11:47. | :11:51. | |
have some footage we filmed this afternoon, talk us through what you | :11:52. | :11:55. | |
are doing and how this thing works. So earlier, we went on a touch | :11:56. | :12:04. | |
develop website and we dragged in blocks which form code, like a | :12:05. | :12:12. | |
jigsaw. So the first block is when the micro:bit a shaken block and the | :12:13. | :12:16. | |
next one shows a message and the final one shows the LEDs to make a | :12:17. | :12:21. | |
face and the lights will grow and that results in this. We shake it | :12:22. | :12:32. | |
and it says, " "Hi, Alex." . And I am on there as well. And a smiley | :12:33. | :12:37. | |
face! Are you saying you didn't do much programming when you were at | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
school and you taught yourself, but you think it is a great thing it is | :12:42. | :12:43. | |
going into schools? you think it is a great thing it is | :12:44. | :12:47. | |
that kids are starting to learn how everything works around them because | :12:48. | :12:52. | |
in a digital era, everything is powered by code from copy machines | :12:53. | :12:56. | |
to smartphones and kids need to understand how everything is powered | :12:57. | :12:59. | |
by code they can write themselves and it is empowering that they can | :13:00. | :13:04. | |
do that. Yes, children from 11 years old. When I was at school, I was | :13:05. | :13:08. | |
thinking algebra, I will never used it as ever, so to have something | :13:09. | :13:13. | |
that feels quite tangible, turning satellites and all sorts, that you | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
can do that, what an opportunity. That is one of the best things about | :13:17. | :13:21. | |
the micro:bit, that you see the lights turn on and you can press | :13:22. | :13:24. | |
buttons and shake it. It is easy to connect with students when they are | :13:25. | :13:28. | |
touching the code, it is really tactile and they can play about it. | :13:29. | :13:36. | |
I had a Rubiks cube back in my day. Your children will have these and | :13:37. | :13:38. | |
you will not be able to help with their homework. Well, that is the | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
idea. Ross, thank you very much indeed and for explaining it to | :13:44. | :13:49. | |
Alex, if not me. Absolutely! Danny, we have waited two years for series | :13:50. | :13:54. | |
three of the Line of Duty and if what we are going to see is anything | :13:55. | :13:59. | |
to go by, it is worth the wait. You play Danny Waldron, firearms officer | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
currently under investigation. The suspect was an armed criminal | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
with a history of violence posing an immediate and credible threat to the | :14:08. | :14:12. | |
public. In respect of operation Damson, on May the 13th, the | :14:13. | :14:16. | |
strategic firearms command authorised the use of firearms. | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
Under section three of the criminal Law act 1967, I am also entitled to | :14:21. | :14:26. | |
use such force as is reasonable in the circumstances to prevent crime | :14:27. | :14:30. | |
and under section 117 of the criminal evidence act of 1984, I am | :14:31. | :14:34. | |
entitled to use reasonable force in the exercise of police powers. Under | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
common law, I have a lawful right to use lethal force under preservation | :14:39. | :14:42. | |
of live or where threat is present or immediate. At no time, has anyone | :14:43. | :14:46. | |
in this room put forward credible evidence that I acted unlawfully and | :14:47. | :14:50. | |
I formally request that my withdrawal from operational | :14:51. | :14:53. | |
deployment be lifted and by firearms status be reinstated so I can get | :14:54. | :14:55. | |
back to what I do best. APPLAUSE | :14:56. | :15:05. | |
A man with a few issues! That interrogation scene took all day to | :15:06. | :15:10. | |
shoot, and without question, it was the hardest passage of dialogue I | :15:11. | :15:13. | |
have ever had to learn to any job I have been involved in, but | :15:14. | :15:19. | |
sensational writing. And wasn't that the scene you had to do for the | :15:20. | :15:23. | |
audition? They sent me the script, and said learn this. They gave it to | :15:24. | :15:27. | |
me on a Friday and wanted me to go 101130 on Monday. -- at 11.30. Then | :15:28. | :15:36. | |
they gave me another week, and I really had to learn it! It was one | :15:37. | :15:40. | |
of those scripts that you just recognise immediately the quality of | :15:41. | :15:44. | |
the writing. It really helps that I was a massive fan of the first two | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
series. Lennie James was in the first two series, Keeley Hawes in | :15:49. | :15:53. | |
the second, so big shoes to fill, but it is one of the most | :15:54. | :15:58. | |
challenging and interesting and convex characters I have taken an. | :15:59. | :16:02. | |
It is one thing having the words, but quite another to bring them to | :16:03. | :16:05. | |
life, and you said this was one of your best part. He is a character | :16:06. | :16:11. | |
that works in extremes. Externally he is very cool and methodical, the | :16:12. | :16:14. | |
leader of an armed response unit, he leads his team with an iron fist, | :16:15. | :16:20. | |
and yet internally he is carrying around an awful amount of damage and | :16:21. | :16:28. | |
issues and trauma, so he is also capable of amazing vulnerability and | :16:29. | :16:32. | |
sensibility, too. Those are the characters you want to play, any | :16:33. | :16:36. | |
character who was a walking, talking contradiction is something you | :16:37. | :16:41. | |
really want to grab. Haunting, though. I was watching it downstairs | :16:42. | :16:45. | |
earlier in my dressing gown, and that is a nice image! But it was | :16:46. | :16:49. | |
disturbing because, I wanted to know whether he is in the next episode, | :16:50. | :16:54. | |
but you can't reveal that? You'll have to tune in, and I can't give | :16:55. | :16:57. | |
anything away. There is a massive twist at the end. As an opening hour | :16:58. | :17:02. | |
of the third series, it is pure edge of your seat gritty drama, and I | :17:03. | :17:08. | |
think all of the existing actors from the original two series, they | :17:09. | :17:12. | |
themselves said to me they recognise that the quality has gone up even | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
more, and Jed has raised the bar. I am excited for everyone to see it | :17:19. | :17:22. | |
now, it is the final hurdle, so much work has gone into it. You can see | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
that, and even though it is ten sunset, we hear that offset you have | :17:29. | :17:31. | |
quite a laugh with your co-stars. There was a house-warming with Craig | :17:32. | :17:37. | |
Parkinson. He was an old house mate of mine, and yes, we had a flat | :17:38. | :17:48. | |
warming in a rented accommodation, we had cream carpets, and you know | :17:49. | :17:51. | |
the Yellow Pages advert, when the guy wakes up, it was basically that. | :17:52. | :17:56. | |
Red wine everywhere, talk about the gate-crashers, people were stealing | :17:57. | :18:00. | |
CDs. Said the landlord might want to get in touch now! Just use the same | :18:01. | :18:10. | |
e-mail address that we are using fur animals an unusual places, it will | :18:11. | :18:12. | |
fit quite nicely. We have talked about Dad's Army, you will Private | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
Walker, are you still smiling about it would you just to move on from | :18:18. | :18:24. | |
that? In terms of an experience on set, it was one of the most joyous | :18:25. | :18:29. | |
times I have had. You guys had a song, it was a brilliant show, and I | :18:30. | :18:33. | |
hold all of those actors in such high regard, they were a joy to be | :18:34. | :18:37. | |
around, and who knows? Maybe they would want to do another one. You | :18:38. | :18:42. | |
would be happy to join in again? Yes, we embraced the 1970s nostalgia | :18:43. | :18:48. | |
of it, so who knows? Next, it is to the stage for you, isn't it? It is | :18:49. | :18:55. | |
indeed. I am appearing in the revival of the Caretaker alongside | :18:56. | :18:59. | |
George McCartney and the legend that is Timothy Spall. Water mix, movie | :19:00. | :19:07. | |
to TV drama to stage. I haven't really got a game plan, you go where | :19:08. | :19:12. | |
the good parts are, and I love doing theatre. It is a massive challenge | :19:13. | :19:18. | |
every single night. I am thrilled to be in the Caretaker, it is a modern | :19:19. | :19:23. | |
classic by Harold Pinter, a very dark, unusual, hilarious play but we | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
are kind of discovering new things about it every day in rehearsal. I | :19:29. | :19:31. | |
would be interested to see how the audience get an. And the most | :19:32. | :19:38. | |
interesting thing that people can see you, nine o'clock, BBC Two, Line | :19:39. | :19:42. | |
of Duty, and if you live in Northern Ireland, BBC One. We know that you | :19:43. | :19:49. | |
live in northern London, is there a part that you like to explore? We go | :19:50. | :19:54. | |
down to sulk in Devon, that is where we go every summer -- it is like | :19:55. | :20:04. | |
Chelsea on C, so we like to have a look around -- Salcombe Mike has a | :20:05. | :20:10. | |
suggestion that is a lot closer than Devon. | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
Paddling about on a lake full of wildfowl is a bird-watcher's dream. | :20:17. | :20:21. | |
You might be surprised to find I am not deep in the British countryside, | :20:22. | :20:26. | |
but north-east London, in one of the UK's most exciting new urban nature | :20:27. | :20:33. | |
reserves. This is Woodberry Wetlands in Hackney, a wild oasis that has | :20:34. | :20:38. | |
been created on the site of two huge reservoirs, which up until recently | :20:39. | :20:42. | |
were hidden behind fences and high walls. I am here to take a look | :20:43. | :20:47. | |
behind-the-scenes and help with some of the final preparations before | :20:48. | :20:51. | |
this secret garden is open to the public after nearly 200 years. In | :20:52. | :20:57. | |
the 1990s, the reservoirs were under threat from developers who wanted to | :20:58. | :21:03. | |
fill them in to build new housing. The local community felt this hidden | :21:04. | :21:06. | |
wetland could be something special, and campaigned to save it. Since | :21:07. | :21:10. | |
then, the reservoirs have been transformed by stopping water | :21:11. | :21:13. | |
treatment and creating new habitats like reedbeds. Locals can join a | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
scheme to learn conservation skills at the site. Nathan is one of the | :21:19. | :21:25. | |
trainees. Nathan, born and bred but virtually on the doorstep? That's | :21:26. | :21:30. | |
right. And you must have known this when you were a kid. I always knew | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
about the reservoir, but it was always closed, so it is amazing that | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
I get to not only visit the site but also work on it. And in the future | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
you would like a job in wildlife and conservation? Yes, I would love to | :21:43. | :21:46. | |
become a ranger for the trust and hopefully learn even more and get | :21:47. | :21:49. | |
outside and took to be blind correct them to come to our sites and learn | :21:50. | :21:55. | |
about nature. This is the future of conservation in Britain right here. | :21:56. | :22:01. | |
The 25 acres of ponds are attracting a variety of water birds. London | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
wildlife trust's David Rooney has overseen the transformation. What a | :22:07. | :22:13. | |
great spot for a bit of bird-watching. It is amazing, isn't | :22:14. | :22:19. | |
it? What is about? Tufted duck, three different types of goals. We | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
could be on another broad is, but we can hear aeroplanes flying overhead, | :22:26. | :22:29. | |
we are surrounded by skyscrapers, we are in the middle of London. It is | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
fantastic, isn't it? The reservoir has been built in 1833, and has been | :22:35. | :22:38. | |
closed off ever since, and that is what is exciting, people are going | :22:39. | :22:41. | |
to come in for the first time and get the first connection with | :22:42. | :22:44. | |
nature, bringing the countryside to their doorstep. Teams of volunteers | :22:45. | :22:51. | |
are at work in the reserve. Some are carrying out wildlife surveys, while | :22:52. | :22:55. | |
others are getting involved by cutting back reedbeds and | :22:56. | :22:59. | |
maintaining habitats. Normally I stay at home and just watch TV or | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
something, but coming out just to keep the environment need and tidy, | :23:05. | :23:12. | |
and future generations. We are in the middle of London commie wouldn't | :23:13. | :23:15. | |
expect to see such beautiful nature. Daphne heart, a local who campaign | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
to help save the reservoirs, has overlooked them for 30 years. When I | :23:21. | :23:26. | |
saw it, it is like being in the country, it is nature there. I think | :23:27. | :23:31. | |
it is fantastic. Right in the heart of north-east London. That is right. | :23:32. | :23:36. | |
When it was a reservoir, no one was allowed in? You had to climb over | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
the fence. What you think they have done the place now? I love it, they | :23:41. | :23:45. | |
are doing such a wonderful job, all the volunteers, and I hope they | :23:46. | :23:48. | |
appreciate it and they treated with respect. If I ever did the lottery, | :23:49. | :23:51. | |
I would never move, because I love it. This is urban conservation on a | :23:52. | :23:56. | |
grand scale, and under the watchful eyes of the locals, this new reserve | :23:57. | :24:01. | |
will be in very good hands. A haven for both wildlife and the | :24:02. | :24:09. | |
surrounding community. S you can't beat the shot of a swan landing, can | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
you? And let it lands on top of the! If you fancy coming to look for | :24:17. | :24:19. | |
yourself, Woodberry Wetlands will be open to visitors from the 1st of | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
May, somewhere for you to go on a weekend. But if you're not lucky | :24:23. | :24:27. | |
enough to live near wildlife park or nature reserve, you can find nature | :24:28. | :24:31. | |
in some unexpected places, and you are going to give us some fabulous | :24:32. | :24:38. | |
examples. Particularly if you know where to look. In 2015 we had water | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
voles, an animal that lives near the water, we went up to the East End of | :24:43. | :24:45. | |
Glasgow, and it live nowhere near the water. It was living in this | :24:46. | :24:49. | |
estate here, three quarters of a mile from the nearest canal, and | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
they like the dark, they live underground, and they have | :24:58. | :25:00. | |
everything they need. And in the same year, 2015, we had another | :25:01. | :25:06. | |
lovely surprise. A missal thrush but normally lives in parkland, nesting | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
in woodland, it chose a traffic light. The warmest place, because it | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
was mostly unread, so the light kept the chicks warm. And it was North | :25:16. | :25:19. | |
facing so all the driving rain and wind kept the chicks safe and warm, | :25:20. | :25:24. | |
and no predators because they can't climb up a traffic light. And nobody | :25:25. | :25:29. | |
noticed it was there, but finally I have to say, January this year, we | :25:30. | :25:35. | |
surpassed ourselves. They sent me to Jersey courtesy of The One Show, | :25:36. | :25:42. | |
very rare to get a turtle washed up in Britain, they normally die very | :25:43. | :25:46. | |
quickly because they get cold, the water is so cold. Ceri got washed | :25:47. | :25:53. | |
up, was looked after by a wonderful that you very slowly raise the | :25:54. | :25:57. | |
temperature, you can't put it in warm water straightaway, and the | :25:58. | :26:01. | |
turtle lasted long enough us to go down, and I met Terri the turtle. I | :26:02. | :26:10. | |
prepared her for an amazing trip down to Gran Canaria. Vaseline all | :26:11. | :26:13. | |
over her, because she gets to hydrate it very easily, so we didn't | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
want to do that, put her on a plane, with me and the vet, the pilot and | :26:20. | :26:25. | |
Terri, this was owned by the elite singer of Ayane Maiden. We went all | :26:26. | :26:33. | |
the way to a total rehabilitation centre in Gran Canaria, and here is | :26:34. | :26:37. | |
me getting very excited about it, and then finally on Friday, the | :26:38. | :26:40. | |
turtle was released into the water, and that funny thing on the top is a | :26:41. | :26:45. | |
GPS satellite transmitter, so we will be able to follow on The One | :26:46. | :26:52. | |
Show Facebook page Terri the turtle as she goes out into the Atlantic, | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
and here is a map showing where she has gone so far, she is heading | :26:57. | :27:00. | |
south-west. I think she is heading to the Cape Verde Islands which has | :27:01. | :27:04. | |
the largest breeding population of loggerhead turtles in the East | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
Atlantic. That map is not a scale, or she's absolutely massive! Terri | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
has grown. And you can watch that full video on The One Show website. | :27:17. | :27:22. | |
It is an amazing journey. I think it is fair to say it is a turtle | :27:23. | :27:32. | |
success! I just dropped but one in. Now for some pictures of you finding | :27:33. | :27:36. | |
animals in order or unexpected places. I have got a good one. Sally | :27:37. | :27:41. | |
sent this in, a little pine Martin in her attic. Fabulous, probably | :27:42. | :27:49. | |
northern Scotland or North Wales. Jon Fisher said this, apparently a | :27:50. | :27:54. | |
ram escape from the farm next door and ended up on his garage roof! And | :27:55. | :28:03. | |
apparently you saw a fox on a platform? I was at London Bridge | :28:04. | :28:10. | |
overground station, really early, only a few commuters, and something | :28:11. | :28:14. | |
move to the left, and it was a black fox, I don't know if it was covered | :28:15. | :28:22. | |
insert. Urban foxes, they are really streetwise, they sit there. It was a | :28:23. | :28:31. | |
very haunting image. Listen, that is great. We're going to ask your help | :28:32. | :28:36. | |
now, because we are looking for Britain's greatest neighbours. They | :28:37. | :28:40. | |
might have done something lovely for you, been supportive in dark times, | :28:41. | :28:44. | |
let us know. We may feature you on the show. I can hear people shouting | :28:45. | :28:49. | |
at the telly that you have great neighbours. Let us know, and we will | :28:50. | :28:54. | |
honour them in some way or form. Thanks to Danny. Line of Duty is on | :28:55. | :29:00. | |
Thursday are nine o'clock on BBC Two, and in Northern Ireland, BBC | :29:01. | :29:04. | |
One. Tomorrow we will be joined by Alison Steadman and Paula Wilcox. | :29:05. | :29:07. | |
Goodbye. APPLAUSE | :29:08. | :29:09. |
