:00:20. > :00:21.Hello and welcome to The One Show - with Alex Jones,
:00:22. > :00:26.And from Red Dwarf via radio 6 Music, Craig Charles.
:00:27. > :00:32.Joining us on the sofa tonight to talk about new film
:00:33. > :00:36."Golden Years", Nick Knowles, Una Stubbs and Phil Davis.
:00:37. > :00:50.Looking forward to hearing all about the new film. With the sad news
:00:51. > :00:53.about Prince yesterday, I have to ask you, as somebody who lives and
:00:54. > :00:58.breathes his type of music, how would you sum his up loss? It is
:00:59. > :01:03.terrible, isn't it? No other musician other than David Bowie
:01:04. > :01:10.could have elicited this outpouring of grief. He danced like Michael
:01:11. > :01:15.Jackson, he could play guitar like Hendrix, great all-rounder. Terrible
:01:16. > :01:22.loss. If you could describe him in three words? Taste maker,
:01:23. > :01:26.trendsetter, iconoclast. Good words. See if you can get one into
:01:27. > :01:32.conversation tomorrow. I'll need a dictionary first. Here is how other
:01:33. > :01:47.people reacted when we asked them to sum up Prince in just three words.
:01:48. > :01:54.He was an amalgamation of all the greatest musicians you could imagine
:01:55. > :01:59.bundled into one. Guitarists who are revered say he is a better
:02:00. > :02:03.guitarist. Singers who are revered say he is a better singer than they
:02:04. > :02:13.are. # Stormy night
:02:14. > :02:24.# No love, no hope in sight. My life soundtrack. He led art but in pop
:02:25. > :02:27.music. Sassy, strong, sexy. The most amazing live performer I've ever
:02:28. > :02:36.seen. # Extra time and your kiss.
:02:37. > :02:40.# Six o'clock already, I was just in the middle of a dream. If you look
:02:41. > :02:44.beyond the persona, the trousers and frilly shirts, it came down to just
:02:45. > :02:50.one thing: music. # Just another manic Monday. This
:02:51. > :02:59.guy was upstairs playing of funk and soul, turns out it was Prince. He
:03:00. > :03:08.was so real. He was never afraid to be himself. Just a complete enigma.
:03:09. > :03:16.# Nothing compares two U. Prints just revelled in difference. I think
:03:17. > :03:31.that is Prince's greatest gift to the world. Different is good.
:03:32. > :03:39.# Sometimes it snows in April # Sometimes I feel so bad
:03:40. > :03:47.# So bad # Sometimes I wish that life was
:03:48. > :03:52.never-ending # But all good things, they say,
:03:53. > :03:57.never last #.
:03:58. > :04:01.Well, we have lost very different artists this week.
:04:02. > :04:03.Victoria Wood, very familiar and comforting but with
:04:04. > :04:05.a wicked streak, and Prince, completely unfamiliar,
:04:06. > :04:13.People react to different deaths in different ways of course.
:04:14. > :04:21.You had worked with Victoria, it must have been a shock. It was a
:04:22. > :04:25.shock. She is really young for nowadays standards. But I loved
:04:26. > :04:31.working with her. And she was quite shy. But she knew how she wanted her
:04:32. > :04:37.work to be played and she was quite strong about that, so you've learnt
:04:38. > :04:43.a lot from her. We learned you were also a Prince fan? Oh, I loved him.
:04:44. > :04:50.Especially his dancing. Incredible, incredible. What a loss. It a
:04:51. > :04:55.strange time. They seem to be dropping all over the place, these
:04:56. > :05:01.great artists. Alan Rickman, David Bowie. He was slightly bonkers. It
:05:02. > :05:06.is not a thing to say when somebody has passed away but I loved the way
:05:07. > :05:10.he was bonkers. Out-of-the-box, and an electric performer. Just like all
:05:11. > :05:17.the ones that have gone recently are iconic and unique, really. In the
:05:18. > :05:24.case of Prince, Victoria, just so young, seems incredibly young. Yeah.
:05:25. > :05:28.Victoria, interesting, she really took joy from just everyday people.
:05:29. > :05:34.All her writing was about the fund. The humdrum, wasn't it? Fun to be
:05:35. > :05:42.found in the humdrum. I learned a lot watching her in terms of writing
:05:43. > :05:46.as well, so a great loss stop. We have two enjoy everybody we have got
:05:47. > :05:47.because you just don't know. We will be hearing a rare Prince
:05:48. > :05:52.performance. At the end of the show. Now tonight we launch a brand
:05:53. > :05:56.new series of food films fronted Who has taken on a pretty epic
:05:57. > :06:11.challenge and for this one, I am on a journey. Mile by my and
:06:12. > :06:16.letter by letter I am going on an alphabetical odyssey seeking out the
:06:17. > :06:21.UK's best food. And you are going to be my guide, from Birmingham's balti
:06:22. > :06:31.to Cornwall's clotted cream. I'll be visiting the places you tell me are
:06:32. > :06:39.home to our finest cuisine. I'm starting with the letter A and the
:06:40. > :06:42.Scottish County of Angus. I've come to see farmer Geordie Sutil who has
:06:43. > :06:48.been producing pure bred Aberdeen Angus piece here for 20 years. These
:06:49. > :06:53.are designed to eat grass. And the meat then is a lot more succulent.
:06:54. > :07:00.And not so intense as grain fed beef. The meat is a healthy, natural
:07:01. > :07:05.product. With the weather so bleak I can't wait to get into the warmth of
:07:06. > :07:10.the kitchen. After seeing your wonderful cattle outside, for me
:07:11. > :07:15.it's all about the beef. Well, here's some very lovely brisket.
:07:16. > :07:21.Let's see what you can do with that. This is the way to have top quality
:07:22. > :07:27.beef on a budget. I cut like brisket, fairly inexpensive, and it
:07:28. > :07:30.is wonderful. In go garlic, onions, star anise. My Scottish sauce is
:07:31. > :07:36.made from whiskey and Scottish heather honey. Into the oven for
:07:37. > :07:39.four hours. While we wait, Geordie shows me just how far back he can
:07:40. > :07:49.trace the heritage of the cattle. This is. Both Aberdeen Angus books
:07:50. > :07:54.tracing all the animals on our form. This is like the equivalent of a
:07:55. > :08:03.family tree? That's exactly what it is. Volume one is 1857. Is that
:08:04. > :08:07.right? Old Jock. He is number one in the book. The grand daddy of them
:08:08. > :08:12.all. In the rain, Geordie explains that over the years crossbreeding
:08:13. > :08:17.became common to feed our growing appetite for beef with the coveted
:08:18. > :08:22.Aberdeen Angus label. Keith bearing the title today can be as little as
:08:23. > :08:28.25% Aberdeen Angus. Geordie has made it his life 's work to restore the
:08:29. > :08:32.original 100% pure bloodline. 20 years ago I bought the first pure
:08:33. > :08:39.native animal and I just realised what a treasure they were. So I set
:08:40. > :08:42.out to gather up all the existing families with no imported
:08:43. > :08:49.bloodlines. We now have them all here. And in 2012 we got them off
:08:50. > :08:53.the rare breeds critically endangered list. That was because
:08:54. > :08:59.they were literally becoming extinct? Borderline extinct, yes.
:09:00. > :09:04.They were literally down to the last handful of cattle left. The food is
:09:05. > :09:09.ready. Time for Geordie and his wife Julia to try my first alphabet dish.
:09:10. > :09:15.Tucked in and see if I've improved your beef or made it worse. So, what
:09:16. > :09:21.do you think? It's absolutely tremendous. I thought it was going
:09:22. > :09:27.to be fairly tough but far from it. Have I kept the Scottish theme? You
:09:28. > :09:32.have and it is subtle. Not a heavy sauce, lovely place, attractive and
:09:33. > :09:37.absolutely delicious. I call that a success. Geordie, thank you very,
:09:38. > :09:42.very much indeed for being the first stop on my alphabetical odyssey.
:09:43. > :09:47.Thank you for a wonderful meal. Here's a little reminder of your
:09:48. > :09:53.time in Angus. As I leave Angus I can tick off the letter A. So where
:09:54. > :09:57.next? Will it be Bradford, Birmingham, Belfast or Bangor? Get
:09:58. > :09:59.in touch with your suggestions and together we will continue to build
:10:00. > :10:03.my a to Z of the UK's best food. And if you have any suggestions
:10:04. > :10:15.of where to send him next please do What I found comforting was the
:10:16. > :10:18.genealogy, in these days of carbon footprints and pre-packaged food,
:10:19. > :10:30.you can catch the genealogy of the state. All the way back to Jock stop
:10:31. > :10:36.you can catch the genealogy of the balti? I turned the can for months
:10:37. > :10:40.ago, I don't eat butter any more. You've changed so much since we saw
:10:41. > :10:49.you, film writer, the can. It was a subconscious thing kicking in. Phil
:10:50. > :10:54.Davies, you've acted in campus films and TV shows.
:10:55. > :10:56.From Quadrophenia to Vera Drake and more recently
:10:57. > :11:00.What was your first reaction when you heard Nick Knowles had
:11:01. > :11:02.written a film and wanted you to be in it?
:11:03. > :11:09.Well, let me be honest. I saw Nick Knowles, I thought, I don't know
:11:10. > :11:13.him. I agreed to do it and we were filming and there was this bloke on
:11:14. > :11:18.sat, I thought, I know him from somewhere. I said, have we met
:11:19. > :11:23.before? I thought, oh yes, that's the guy. I can't say it was either
:11:24. > :11:27.an incentive or a disincentive to appear in the film, I had absolutely
:11:28. > :11:33.no idea, I had not made the connection with Nick Knowles off the
:11:34. > :11:37.TV. I did not send the script out with the full CV of who I was
:11:38. > :11:41.because they don't care. We just pinged the script out to people.
:11:42. > :11:47.What's really nice is people took it on the script, they read it. Just on
:11:48. > :11:55.its merits. On film sets you don't usually meet the writer, they keep
:11:56. > :11:59.the writer away. This is the thing, I was talking to mum and I said Nick
:12:00. > :12:03.Knowles is coming on, she said what for? I said he has written a film,
:12:04. > :12:09.she said, don't be silly, it can't be the same Nick knows. So where did
:12:10. > :12:13.the idea come from? All kinds of things. Me growing up, my aunts and
:12:14. > :12:18.uncles, lots of cousins, weddings, we would turn up and I would watch
:12:19. > :12:22.my uncles and aunts. Everybody's got a favourite uncle, aunt, grandad,
:12:23. > :12:31.somebody with a twinkle in their eye who acted out. The Hatton Garden
:12:32. > :12:35.robberies, I am here to say I am Basil, the one that got away. It is
:12:36. > :12:39.important to say it was written before that. Seven years ago, from
:12:40. > :12:46.writing to get the money and cast together. We had a fantastic time.
:12:47. > :12:50.What is the premise of the film? Arthur and Martin are two old
:12:51. > :12:54.pensioners, getting cheesed off at the way their pensions are being
:12:55. > :12:57.treated, so they decide to have a bank robbery and get their money
:12:58. > :13:01.back from the bank. Then they get the hang of the whole thing and they
:13:02. > :13:07.want to move on. Then they hear their beloved social club is being
:13:08. > :13:11.taken over by a supermarket. So they are determined to stop that as well,
:13:12. > :13:18.and so it goes on and on. And they recruit their friends, that's where
:13:19. > :13:21.we get involved. We go round very politely, without swearing, saying
:13:22. > :13:25.please, thank you, and we rob a number of banks. OK then, let's have
:13:26. > :13:42.a look at the trailer. Sort out this sorry mess. Special
:13:43. > :13:46.forces. It's not just a club where people come to play bowls or bingo,
:13:47. > :13:52.this is more than a social club, this is a lifeline for some people.
:13:53. > :13:55.We can't let it be destroyed. Let's invite the gang back. We are in.
:13:56. > :14:06.I've always wanted to play Robin Hood. There is a phenomenal cast.
:14:07. > :14:10.Lots of great actors in this. How did you convince them all, then?
:14:11. > :14:15.Obviously the strength of the script was there but there must have been
:14:16. > :14:20.more to it? And Virginia came out of retirement. She hadn't made a film
:14:21. > :14:24.for 17 years. Weirdly this month is the 50th anniversary of the royal
:14:25. > :14:28.premiere of born free. She was a massive star then but had gone away
:14:29. > :14:33.from it. John Miller, who co-wrote it with me, developed a relationship
:14:34. > :14:37.with Bernard Hill, that's how that came about. I was basically driving
:14:38. > :14:42.along the road, racking my brain of thinking I could get to play in the
:14:43. > :14:47.film, and I had known in Virginia for 20 years and never asked her. I
:14:48. > :14:52.rang her son and said, can I ask her? He said, what are you asking me
:14:53. > :14:57.for, just ring her up. I centre the script and it went from there. We
:14:58. > :15:02.got this amazing cast. It was a cast of players rather than anyone
:15:03. > :15:07.superstar. Like an Ealing comedy. That was the thing. I think of this
:15:08. > :15:10.as the rebirth of the Ealing comedy, it's got that same sort of gentle
:15:11. > :15:19.humour, with a genuine message underneath stop blue it it is funny
:15:20. > :15:21.but there is a vein of melancholy going through it. It is business
:15:22. > :15:36.with comedy. So how long did it take to write the
:15:37. > :15:46.script? Seven years ago, it was four days in a hotel in Bristol. It went
:15:47. > :15:52.for 20 or 30 rewrites afterwards, but then we spent seven years
:15:53. > :15:59.raising the money. There are people putting money into this, putting
:16:00. > :16:02.their own investment in, so it is a proper independent movie, about ?3
:16:03. > :16:12.million, and people seem to like it, it is going. 108 cinema as. You have
:16:13. > :16:20.to ring up your Odeon and check, because there are only certain times
:16:21. > :16:31.it is on, so people can see it. So, Golden Years is released next
:16:32. > :16:34.Friday. And Nick made a cameo in his own film. You can see it if you are
:16:35. > :16:52.quick. Did you see it? Did you see it? We
:16:53. > :17:03.slowed it down, but you have to be really quick to see it. I was an
:17:04. > :17:11.extra in the film Room With A View, and I was in that more than in my
:17:12. > :17:24.own film! And Simon Callow is in it as well.
:17:25. > :17:26.Well we've found a few unlikely celebrities popping up in cameo
:17:27. > :17:29.roles so we want to see if you can spot them.
:17:30. > :17:31.The first one is from the film Hook.
:17:32. > :17:57.What do you think? Billy Connolly? It was in fact Glenn close with a
:17:58. > :18:01.beard. It suits her! She went on to play in the Irish film, she played a
:18:02. > :18:04.man in that. She did. The next cameo is from
:18:05. > :18:23.old classic Life of Brian. Who did you spot there? Handmade
:18:24. > :18:28.films? George Harrison! APPLAUSE
:18:29. > :18:51.Yes, aeroplanes being the clue. Richard Branson. He lent them one of
:18:52. > :18:54.his aeroplanes, and got in the film. That is what we need to do next.
:18:55. > :18:57.Time for one more - who has a cameo in this clip
:18:58. > :19:15.That is a bit of a tough one. Was it one of the zombies? Yes, right in
:19:16. > :19:21.the back of the shot. It is actually Chris Martin from Coldplay. You can
:19:22. > :19:24.see him if you look closely. I think you did a song on the move a as
:19:25. > :19:28.well. Very similar danced of the one at
:19:29. > :19:36.the Super Bowl this year. He is good friends of Simon Pegg.
:19:37. > :19:38.Now this weekend marks the start of Shakespeare 400
:19:39. > :19:41.and loads of programmes on the BBC and elsewhere will be celebrating
:19:42. > :19:45.We sent Gyles to meet some people who have even more reason
:19:46. > :19:54.The UK's greatest literary export wrote 37 plays, and today they are
:19:55. > :20:03.more popular than ever. But what about the namesakes? To any of
:20:04. > :20:08.today's Shakespeare's have any literary talents? I am William
:20:09. > :20:14.Shakespeare and I failed English twice. I am William Shakespeare and
:20:15. > :20:19.I have never seen any of his plays. There are over 20 William
:20:20. > :20:23.Shakespeares on the electoral register, so what was it like
:20:24. > :20:26.growing up with a famous name? I found I was a little different
:20:27. > :20:30.school. People will smirk when I asked my name and I told them, I was
:20:31. > :20:34.known to the teachers because they'll remember me. Why did your
:20:35. > :20:38.parents could you William should expect? To make sure I grew up with
:20:39. > :20:43.a sense of humour, I think. It has been more of a hindrance than a
:20:44. > :20:47.help. Try booking a bed-and-breakfast with my name! And
:20:48. > :20:53.your son, you have handed on the name? Absolutely not. We called him
:20:54. > :20:59.Thomas so he wouldn't have to put up with the jibes I was used to. I
:21:00. > :21:07.think we can play around, just so that I can say, to tee, or not to
:21:08. > :21:10.tee. Some of today's most popular phrases
:21:11. > :21:17.were made popular by the great bard. The Bodleian library in Oxford has
:21:18. > :21:21.one of only 13 surviving sonnets of his. Scholar Emma Smith believes
:21:22. > :21:26.people underestimate the impact Shakespeare's writing has had an
:21:27. > :21:28.needless language. What he does do is put words together in these
:21:29. > :21:34.phrases and sentences that we are still using. Greek to me, neither
:21:35. > :21:40.borrower or a lender be, in my minds eye. Shakespeare composed 154
:21:41. > :21:44.sonnets in all, and many are as popular today as they were in the
:21:45. > :21:52.17th century. What are they about? Love, but not love in a Valentines
:21:53. > :21:58.sense, it includes hate, self-doubt, jealousy, all kinds of other quite
:21:59. > :22:06.hard and bitter emotions. What is the number one hit? Shall I compare
:22:07. > :22:08.the two summers day? Sonnet 18 is the nation's favoured, so to mark
:22:09. > :22:13.the 400th anniversary of his death, the One Show has arranged a special
:22:14. > :22:15.poetry performance by Williams around the UK who all share the
:22:16. > :22:28.surname. Shall I can barely to a summer's
:22:29. > :22:36.day? Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the
:22:37. > :22:41.Darling buds of May, and summer's lease have all too short a date.
:22:42. > :22:46.Some time to hop, the eye of heaven shines, and often the old conflicts
:22:47. > :22:52.and dimmed, and every fare from fair, sometime declines, our chance
:22:53. > :22:57.and nature's changing course on dimmed. The eternal summer shall not
:22:58. > :23:05.fade, nor lose possession of how fair thou art, nor shall death brag
:23:06. > :23:08.thou art in its shade, when in eternal lines to time by growers to,
:23:09. > :23:13.so long as men can breathe and eyes can see, so long as this and this
:23:14. > :23:30.gives life to the. Lovely idea! Thank you so much to
:23:31. > :23:35.Gyles, and of course to William, William, William, William and
:23:36. > :23:42.William. And for more on the BBC's Shakespeare coverage, have a look on
:23:43. > :23:47.the website. Now, the Globe Theatre have formed 3710 minute films of the
:23:48. > :23:50.37 plays, and they are showing them on Saturday and Sunday, tomorrow and
:23:51. > :23:55.Sunday, along the South bank and 37 screens on a loop. They are
:23:56. > :23:59.absolutely free, you can walk from Westminster Bridge to Tower Bridge
:24:00. > :24:04.and see them all. There is a fantastic cast, James Norton, loads
:24:05. > :24:08.of people. I am in one myself, so do go down to the south bank tomorrow
:24:09. > :24:13.and have a look. It's free! I will be going, definitely. William
:24:14. > :24:19.Shakespeare's not the only one with a namesake. We have a fellow Phil
:24:20. > :24:30.Davies in the audience. But which of these do you think he is? Which one
:24:31. > :24:37.is it? I think he has already given himself away! He is excited. Do you
:24:38. > :24:48.have an E in your surname? No, there is no E. He looks like a Phil Davis.
:24:49. > :24:55.And we have scoured the entire UK, and found the only other Una Stubbs,
:24:56. > :25:00.she is in our audience, and can you guess which of these ladies she is.
:25:01. > :25:10.Is it the lady in the front in the black and white dress? It is indeed!
:25:11. > :25:16.Step forward for us. Is she Australian? No, she is English.
:25:17. > :25:20.Thank you so much for popping in. We did find a Nick Knowles, but sadly
:25:21. > :25:25.he wasn't able to make it. That doesn't surprise me, he is probably
