. Hello and welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker. And Alex Jones. | :00:20. | :00:23. | |
The last time we met tonight's guest it was in a very muddy park | :00:23. | :00:27. | |
in Sheffield on one of the wettest summer days last year. It doesn't | :00:27. | :00:30. | |
look like the weather's improved much for him since. Here he is | :00:30. | :00:38. | |
filming the latest Jonathan Creek special. It's a very good job... | :00:38. | :00:45. | |
LAUGHTER He has a duffel coat and a sunny disposition! It's Alan | :00:45. | :00:55. | |
:00:55. | :00:56. | ||
Davies! I look like I got caught short. Obviously, you were in the | :00:56. | :00:59. | |
middle of filming. It was horrendous. You didn't expect the | :00:59. | :01:04. | |
snow? We did not expect the snow and it's not continuity from the | :01:04. | :01:09. | |
previous scene where there's no snow at all. The actor, Mark Frost, | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
had to come in and say, looks like there might be snow. You go outside | :01:14. | :01:19. | |
and there is about six inches, it's a blizzard. It's complex for | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
filming, snow. It was a bit of an issue. Snow is a running theme | :01:24. | :01:27. | |
through your career, we noticed. Didn't you have to pretend you were | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
in a blizzard when you auditioned for drama school? Yes, that's what | :01:31. | :01:34. | |
I had to do. Can we see the technique you used. They said, find | :01:35. | :01:41. | |
a space, find a space. Like this. Find a space. You are walking in a | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
blizzard. So I was going like this. Then it a woman walked past me, | :01:48. | :01:52. | |
bent double, as if going through a hail of gunfire, that's what I | :01:52. | :01:56. | |
thought. I thought she's overcooking it, why is she doing it | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
like that? Then I saw that picture of me and I thought that's exactly | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
it! That's what you do in a blizzard. Did you get into drama | :02:05. | :02:11. | |
school? I thought I am going to go elsewhere. Brilliant. Speaking of | :02:11. | :02:15. | |
which, it looks likely to be a cold night for most of us. Temperatures | :02:15. | :02:21. | |
in some areas possibly dropping to a chilly minus ten degrees. Despite | :02:21. | :02:27. | |
all of that, can you believe this, Lucy and Iwan will be live at an | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
outdoor pool where one will have to take the coldest swim of their | :02:31. | :02:39. | |
lives. They're just testing the water. It's the blue dressing gown, | :02:39. | :02:49. | |
:02:49. | :02:50. | ||
don't do anything for him! First, Sarah Mac has spent a whole shift | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
with the guys we rely on to keep our roads ice-free. They're often | :02:55. | :02:58. | |
criticised but the gritters' job is not an easy one. Here in Newcastle | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
they've had a particularly difficult week with large snowfalls | :03:02. | :03:09. | |
across the north-east causing hazardous driving conditions. | :03:09. | :03:13. | |
I have joined the gritting team during a rare moment of calm as | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
they wait for the conditions to worsen once again. Right, where is | :03:18. | :03:23. | |
Frank? You are the willing volunteers to take me out tonight. | :03:23. | :03:29. | |
Let's go. Grab your flask. Don't forget that. Boys, we are off. See | :03:29. | :03:32. | |
you later. The duty manager, Tony, has been | :03:32. | :03:36. | |
monitoring the conditions across the city using some of the latest | :03:36. | :03:40. | |
technology. Thermal cameras positioned on all the main roads | :03:40. | :03:45. | |
have shown the surface temperature plummeting. It's now our job to get | :03:45. | :03:49. | |
the grit down before any standing water turns to ice. Go on then, | :03:49. | :03:57. | |
which one is yours? This one, Sarah. Is she ready to? Yes. That's the | :03:57. | :04:03. | |
salt in all its glory. I am on this side? Unless you want to drive? | :04:03. | :04:13. | |
:04:13. | :04:19. | ||
better not make me drive. How far do you cover in a night? | :04:19. | :04:24. | |
About 120 kilometres. The last few nights we have had to go over the | :04:24. | :04:27. | |
same pitch to get it clear. know the city like the back of your | :04:27. | :04:33. | |
hand? I know the bits I have to do! The grit works by lowering the | :04:33. | :04:37. | |
freezing point of water so that it won't turn into ice unless | :04:37. | :04:41. | |
temperatures fall below minus ten. How much grit would you use every | :04:41. | :04:49. | |
night? Last two nights with the snow and ice, maybe 30 tonnes, 35 | :04:49. | :04:53. | |
tonnes per wagon. We have had 12 wagons out, gone through vast | :04:53. | :04:59. | |
amounts. You can spread maximum to? 12 metres, probably cover three | :04:59. | :05:03. | |
lanes. Do you feel a sense of pride doing | :05:03. | :05:10. | |
what you do? I do, yes. Last night was a nightmare because we kept | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
getting shower after shower and couldn't - we did the best we could. | :05:16. | :05:19. | |
Through the night, we are the only thing on the road, we can't clear | :05:19. | :05:25. | |
it ourselves but we plough it and we grit what's left and as soon as | :05:25. | :05:29. | |
the cars hit it in the morning it becomes like this. You can see it's | :05:29. | :05:32. | |
been nasty the last couple of days at the side of the road. I got | :05:32. | :05:38. | |
stuck last night. You got stuck? Don't tell anybody! | :05:38. | :05:43. | |
Do you get to witness some funny things? I have seen some scary | :05:43. | :05:49. | |
things. I was doing about 20mph and a taxi came shooting past and in | :05:49. | :05:53. | |
the distance coy see his red -- I could see his red lights and he | :05:53. | :05:58. | |
spun off into a field. Obviously when he was behind me he was safe | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
because it was the bit I ploughed and in the front he is on the snow | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
and ice then. Tonight if I can stop ice forming on the road, somebody | :06:05. | :06:11. | |
can get to work safely in the morning. I am quite happy. | :06:12. | :06:17. | |
thanks, Frank. Bye. Well, that is Newcastle gritted and a little | :06:17. | :06:23. | |
safer for another day. But with freezing weather forecast, Frank | :06:23. | :06:27. | |
and the rest of the team will have to start all over again tomorrow. | :06:27. | :06:30. | |
Thanks to the gritters of Newcastle and all across the UK, for that | :06:30. | :06:34. | |
matter. Indeed. When we are planning these shows it's amazing | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
the coincidences. Amazing! discovered that you are a keen | :06:38. | :06:46. | |
diver. We have a wonderful picture of you. Oh my God! | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
I don't suppose you have been diving around the UK recently, have | :06:50. | :06:57. | |
you? No. That's a good look! So much for showing that! I learned to | :06:57. | :07:03. | |
dive in the UK, though. I learned to dive in Stony Cove, a national | :07:03. | :07:08. | |
dive centre in Leicestershire. You go in and there's not a lot of fish, | :07:08. | :07:14. | |
it's a quarry. There is an own plane and bus and things to look at. | :07:14. | :07:18. | |
It was November and I didn't even - I had a wetsuit that didn't fit. I | :07:18. | :07:23. | |
could not - you have to reinflate your jacket manually as part of the | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
test and I couldn't close my lips around the pipe, they were blue. I | :07:27. | :07:35. | |
was lying on the bottom like this. Go up, go up! You passed! You will | :07:35. | :07:40. | |
have sympathy with Lucy and Iwan who are poolside with hardy and | :07:40. | :07:46. | |
quite possibly completely mad swimmers. | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
Yes, we are here at Tooting Bec Lido in south London. This holds | :07:51. | :07:57. | |
one million gallons of unheated water and yes, unheated! It's | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
freezing. Believe it or not, crazy people in this world choose to | :08:00. | :08:05. | |
brave these waters. This very weekend this pool will be the site | :08:05. | :08:09. | |
of the UK Cold Water Swimming Championships and a few of those | :08:09. | :08:15. | |
600 competitors are here tonight. They've joined us for a warm-up or | :08:15. | :08:21. | |
should that be cool-down? They may be full of cheer now, but this snow | :08:21. | :08:25. | |
was gathered right here earlier. We have not shipped this in, this is | :08:25. | :08:29. | |
Tooting's finest ice. It's freezing. I can see ice in the water. Let's | :08:29. | :08:39. | |
:08:39. | :08:40. | ||
finds out exactly how cold it is. Oh! You are not going to like this. | :08:40. | :08:46. | |
Look at that, Lucy. One degree. Freezing! Terrific! | :08:46. | :08:51. | |
Yes, you know the bad news and when you are ready to go, one of you | :08:51. | :08:58. | |
will be swimming in that water very, very shortly. What's going to | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
happen, Alan is going to ask you some questions and whoever gets the | :09:01. | :09:09. | |
most questions wrong will have to basically freeze. In Alan's honour | :09:09. | :09:15. | |
we are calling this Q-Ice. Would you like to go ahead with the first | :09:15. | :09:25. | |
:09:25. | :09:47. | ||
Which was the coldest city last OK, Iwan's gone for B. A is Moscow. | :09:47. | :09:57. | |
:09:57. | :10:00. | ||
Well, the answer was A, Moscow, it was minus 50. Well done, Lucy. | :10:00. | :10:06. | |
not looking good, Iwan. We will rejoin you shortly for round two | :10:06. | :10:11. | |
and round three and the swim. UK has an incredible amount of | :10:11. | :10:18. | |
regional accents and the way people speak can change within a few miles. | :10:18. | :10:22. | |
Alistair McGowan was keen to tpoeupbd out -- to find out why. | :10:22. | :10:25. | |
I have always been fascinated by accents, listening to them and | :10:25. | :10:29. | |
identifying them and copying them. But now I want to know more. Why | :10:29. | :10:37. | |
does Matt Baker sound so different from Gyles Brandreth? Why does Mike | :10:37. | :10:44. | |
sound similar to Neil Morrissey? I am teaming up with accent expert | :10:44. | :10:48. | |
Patrick and we have picked a great city to start. Here we are at the | :10:48. | :10:54. | |
home of one of Britain's most identifiable and iconic and do-able | :10:54. | :10:58. | |
accents. Down by the Mersey this is where Liverpool English began. | :10:58. | :11:01. | |
Liverpool has been a port for centuries and the original dock | :11:01. | :11:03. | |
responsible for the development of the city and its accent can still | :11:04. | :11:08. | |
be found. Underground. This dock changed | :11:08. | :11:12. | |
Liverpool's history. It was this wall as we see it today which gave | :11:12. | :11:18. | |
rise to the way you speak today? Definitely. John Bishop owes a lot | :11:18. | :11:25. | |
to this particular wall. From the 1th -- 18th century they brought in | :11:25. | :11:28. | |
ships from all over the world, especially Ireland and these | :11:28. | :11:32. | |
dockers know their heritage is key to the accent today. My ancestors | :11:32. | :11:38. | |
came from Ireland. The vast majority of people in Liverpool | :11:38. | :11:48. | |
have some Irish connection with them. Someone like Dara oh Brian | :11:48. | :11:51. | |
doesn't sound familiar. We are heavy on the A. I remember being in | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
London speaking with a guy, he said what part of Ireland are you from? | :11:55. | :11:58. | |
I am said I am not, I am from Liverpool. He said, that's good | :11:58. | :12:08. | |
enough for me. The Irish accent may have dominated by scouse is a | :12:08. | :12:12. | |
complicated recipe. Scottish people living outside Scotland, people | :12:12. | :12:14. | |
coming from Wales and people coming from bits of Lancashire and | :12:14. | :12:18. | |
everything. What you had in Liverpool, especially I think the | :12:18. | :12:21. | |
19th century, is people from everywhere. | :12:21. | :12:24. | |
Scouse is incredibly distinctive. But the remarkable thing about | :12:24. | :12:29. | |
accents in Britain is that they all have borders and 16 miles down the | :12:29. | :12:32. | |
road in St Helens there's proof of this. | :12:32. | :12:38. | |
You think this is where the scouse accent ends? I would say so. My | :12:38. | :12:42. | |
sister lives probably about a mile away. She has gone a scouse accent | :12:42. | :12:49. | |
now. A mile away? Yeah. I am not hearing a trace of scouse now in | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
your accent. It's surprising how little similarity there is between | :12:53. | :13:01. | |
real scouse and real Lancs. People in St Helens don't have scouse | :13:01. | :13:05. | |
accents because their traditional industries drew on a local | :13:05. | :13:09. | |
workforce. What amazing me is that the north-west of England boasts | :13:09. | :13:14. | |
yet another instantly recognisable accent. Manchester was a giant of | :13:14. | :13:16. | |
the industrial revolution and it was the people who came to work in | :13:16. | :13:21. | |
the mills who created their own distinctive way of speaking. | :13:21. | :13:26. | |
What do you think of the specific sounds of a Manchester accent? | :13:26. | :13:32. | |
that stand out would be the final vowels and a word such as happy, it | :13:32. | :13:38. | |
sounds more like happy. Next time I shouldn't say The Happy Mondays | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
from Manchester? Something like that. Frank Gallagher on Shameless | :13:44. | :13:48. | |
and it falls into place, know what I mean? He sounds different from | :13:48. | :13:52. | |
Steven Gerrard, because the cotton mills in Manchester didn't attract | :13:52. | :13:55. | |
quite the same international flavour of economic migrants as the | :13:55. | :14:01. | |
docks in Liverpool. In Liverpool you have more people from different | :14:01. | :14:05. | |
areas because it was the docks and you have people coming from all | :14:05. | :14:09. | |
over to live in Manchester, from Ireland and Scotland but probably | :14:09. | :14:13. | |
just less than went to Liverpool. That's the secret, St Helens is | :14:13. | :14:17. | |
close to the traditional native accent of the north-west. | :14:17. | :14:21. | |
Manchester piled lots of accents on top but mainly other British | :14:21. | :14:24. | |
accents and Liverpool went all the way with a good helping of | :14:24. | :14:28. | |
international flair. Industry has shaped our accents. As this | :14:28. | :14:33. | |
fascinating corner of the world built itself it also built its own | :14:33. | :14:43. | |
:14:43. | :14:50. | ||
unique sounds. Or is that saunds? Alistair McGowan is back next | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
Wednesday. Do you have a favourite accent? | :14:55. | :15:01. | |
have to say Welsh! Well, we know what the favourite worldwide accent | :15:01. | :15:08. | |
t is, it is Mexican. Here we go. Have you heard about the Mexican | :15:08. | :15:13. | |
kamikaze squadron? I care not for myself, only my country! Why did | :15:13. | :15:23. | |
:15:23. | :15:27. | ||
the mushroom go to the puppy?! He was a fun guy! They said the pink | :15:27. | :15:36. | |
polenta, I love it! What is it about Mexican? I don't know it just | :15:36. | :15:42. | |
happened! I've never even been to Mexico! You have not been to Mexico | :15:42. | :15:50. | |
but you are going to Australia and New Zealand? Yes, when I do Life Is | :15:50. | :15:54. | |
Pain. Will that be it now for another 14 | :15:54. | :16:01. | |
years? No, I have the bug again. I am doing Life Is Pain over there at | :16:01. | :16:05. | |
Hammersmith Apollo. Two nights of The Clue Of The Savant's Thumb. | :16:05. | :16:09. | |
There that will be fun. Are you getting friends and family for that | :16:09. | :16:13. | |
one? Yes, I'm doing Leicester Comedy Festival before, then two | :16:13. | :16:17. | |
nights there and then I'm going to do new show next year. I really | :16:17. | :16:21. | |
have the stand-up bug again. I had fallen out of love with it but I | :16:21. | :16:26. | |
had a really good time touring. Why? I don't know. I think in the | :16:26. | :16:31. | |
past I was doing too much at once and not enjoying it. Trying to do | :16:31. | :16:37. | |
too much. This time I did some shows, went home, saw the family, | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
then did a few shows. That was nice. Well, lots of people will be | :16:42. | :16:47. | |
excited also to hear that Jonathan Creek is back again? Yes, Jonathan | :16:47. | :16:53. | |
Creek is back, sleuthing, one fan! They will be ready for it! It has | :16:53. | :16:59. | |
been three years since the last special? Yes, we did a couple, that | :16:59. | :17:06. | |
was in 2008 and 2009. Brch that it was five years, but the director is | :17:06. | :17:11. | |
back. David is in good form. He's been | :17:11. | :17:15. | |
directing us this week. They told us you have hair | :17:15. | :17:19. | |
extensions for this one? They clip bits in. | :17:19. | :17:24. | |
Why? Because I turn up, I don't have the same hair as the last | :17:24. | :17:30. | |
series. David wants the same kind of hair that I had in 1996. They | :17:30. | :17:34. | |
used to bring lovely brown pieces if I didn't have enough. This time | :17:34. | :17:39. | |
they have this hair that looks like it's been dragged from a plug hole. | :17:39. | :17:43. | |
I thought, that must come from a dirty character living in a skip. | :17:43. | :17:49. | |
They started to clip it in my head. The worst thing it was a perfect | :17:49. | :17:55. | |
match! Now, the make-up lady, says if you are getting dry hair, | :17:55. | :18:01. | |
Moroccan oil! Yes! But there are other oils available! Mexican oil | :18:02. | :18:09. | |
is wonderful! Yes, there are other oils, Alan. The episode is called | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
The Clue Of The Savant's Thumb. You have brilliant faces in it. You | :18:13. | :18:17. | |
have mentioned Sheridan Smith but who else is in the show? Joanna | :18:17. | :18:23. | |
Lumley is in the show. She is class personified. She is so much fun to | :18:23. | :18:30. | |
be with. So funny. Stoical in the face of freezing to earthquake s. | :18:30. | :18:35. | |
Rik Mayall is back. He is playing a role he played in | :18:35. | :18:37. | |
1988. I love the fagt that you have hand | :18:38. | :18:47. | |
warmers on today! -- fact. I know! Maybe you can throw them to Lucy | :18:47. | :18:53. | |
and Iwan. They are at Tooting Bec Lido. They are with the cold water | :18:53. | :18:58. | |
swimmers. They are worried about which one of them will have to go | :18:58. | :19:02. | |
in the pool tonight. Now, before we go back to them, | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
explain, what are those people in the background doing? I don't know | :19:07. | :19:11. | |
why they enjoy it, I think that they are bonkers, but there are | :19:11. | :19:15. | |
lots of them here tonight. So let's ask them. Why are you doing this? | :19:15. | :19:19. | |
Why are you taking part in the UK Cold Water Swimming Championships | :19:19. | :19:26. | |
this weekend? You are nuts? Yes, let's ask Margi. Why do people do | :19:26. | :19:29. | |
this? It makes them feel fantastic when they get out. | :19:29. | :19:34. | |
OK. Tell me about the championships what events do you have? | :19:34. | :19:39. | |
freestyle, the relays and the en durance for the hardy swimmers. | :19:39. | :19:44. | |
How long can people stay in for? About 30 seconds. | :19:44. | :19:49. | |
Well, respect for 30 seconds. is 30 seconds too long if you ask | :19:49. | :19:57. | |
me. One man who has been in for longer than that, why are you doing | :19:57. | :20:02. | |
this? It makes you feel really great. It is a good kick after the | :20:02. | :20:07. | |
end of a long day it is brilliant Well, I think you are really great. | :20:07. | :20:14. | |
You are bonkers, a manman! Brilliant! Well, here we go, here | :20:14. | :20:24. | |
:20:24. | :20:46. | ||
Never seen snow? I was going to go A but you have, so I'm being brave. | :20:46. | :20:54. | |
He has tied it, it was in fact, B! One each! Goodness me! We will have | :20:54. | :21:01. | |
to have an ice-breaker! In a while! Lucy looks worried! We'll be back | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
in a bit. Now, then, Jonathan Creek, as we | :21:05. | :21:12. | |
know is a TV detective, that uses stage magic, but being a TV | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
detector, requires electronics as Marty Jopson has found out. | :21:16. | :21:21. | |
If you are watching this, don't worry about the knock on the door. | :21:21. | :21:28. | |
It could be a deliverry man. Or is it? There is a TV set in number | :21:28. | :21:33. | |
five. It is in the front room. Watching Columbo! ADVERTISEMENT: If | :21:33. | :21:40. | |
you don't have a TV licence, it will not take that long to find you. | :21:40. | :21:45. | |
The TV detector licence, like science fiction, a man with a van. | :21:45. | :21:49. | |
Who can find anybody watching television without a licence and | :21:49. | :21:56. | |
then nab them! Ever since the 1920s, the BBC depended for its income on | :21:56. | :22:00. | |
the licence fee. Without one you can be fined �1,000 and even get | :22:00. | :22:05. | |
yourself a criminal record. This was the first TV detector. Driven | :22:05. | :22:11. | |
by a gentleman in tweed. They were called the Mechanical Sherlock | :22:11. | :22:15. | |
Holmes. Then came the alien vehicles in the 1960s, with a bird | :22:15. | :22:19. | |
cage, described as the latest in high-tech equipment. | :22:19. | :22:24. | |
A lot of people think that this van does not work. That it is a gimmick | :22:24. | :22:28. | |
to scare them into getting a licence, but I can assure you that | :22:28. | :22:32. | |
it does. Many people believed that the | :22:32. | :22:36. | |
detector vans detected anything, but I know a man who bought his own | :22:36. | :22:42. | |
van. Van enthusiast, Martin, got this for �150. He spent six years | :22:42. | :22:46. | |
restoring it. Martin, what on earth possessed | :22:47. | :22:54. | |
you?! I have family history with them. My dad would go out as a bus | :22:54. | :23:00. | |
officer. He would have a number of addresses to go to. They would pull | :23:00. | :23:04. | |
up outside, detect a television at that was working and then my father | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
would knock on the door and ask to see the licence. It could be risky. | :23:09. | :23:13. | |
Some people were nice and had licences. Sometimes you had to go | :23:13. | :23:17. | |
out with two people. Sometimes you had to avoid areas all together! | :23:17. | :23:22. | |
Now, while Martin may have rerestored this, the electronics | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
have been dealt with by a different man. | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
Hello, Jeff. Hi. We have a very sensitive | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
receiver here. There are two aerials on the roof. With a signal | :23:35. | :23:39. | |
there, you know we are looking at a television that is tuned to a | :23:39. | :23:42. | |
Channel. Could you really tell what room it | :23:42. | :23:47. | |
is in? Possibly. They photographed the first pattern to compare it to | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
a signal. Turn the knob until the graphics | :23:51. | :23:56. | |
line up with the peaks. Then you can determine what range the TV set | :23:56. | :24:01. | |
is from the van. That is amazing in a Heath Robinson | :24:01. | :24:06. | |
kind of way. A wonderful Pete of kit. I have placed a portable | :24:06. | :24:09. | |
television down the road. You challenge is to detect the | :24:09. | :24:14. | |
television. I accept that challenge! Exlent. | :24:14. | :24:19. | |
Let's do it. This experiment is not perfect. The van worked in the days | :24:19. | :24:24. | |
when we watched analogue television signals that have been turned off. | :24:24. | :24:27. | |
So the old television I have planted will not get a picture, but | :24:27. | :24:31. | |
it is switched on. It could prove that the vans could spot a | :24:31. | :24:34. | |
television that is working. There is a peak coming up now. | :24:34. | :24:42. | |
There it is! Yes! There it is! A blob. A big yellow box on that | :24:42. | :24:45. | |
driveway. That blob there is that signal over there. | :24:45. | :24:49. | |
If you switch that TV set off, that peak will disappear. | :24:49. | :24:54. | |
So, we may have shed light on how the old fashioned vans work but in | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
this modern digital age, the licensing people are coy about how | :24:59. | :25:02. | |
they operate. They say detecting a digital | :25:02. | :25:06. | |
television now takes as little as 20 seconds, but they would not tell | :25:06. | :25:12. | |
us how, or even talk about it. Do detectors work? Did they work? | :25:13. | :25:17. | |
Reality may be more money Dane. All it usually takes is a reminder call | :25:18. | :25:22. | |
or letter. Not as dramatic as having a van full of electronics | :25:22. | :25:29. | |
showing up outside the house. A lot more, shall which say, | :25:29. | :25:32. | |
straightforward?! What a project! All old cars are cool. | :25:32. | :25:40. | |
Now, on the table is the National Television Awards! Received for QI. | :25:40. | :25:44. | |
Congratulations for that. We are very very pleased. We have | :25:44. | :25:49. | |
been making the show for ten years, finally, the audience have noticed. | :25:49. | :25:54. | |
We are gratified. It is the audience's vote. So it is very | :25:54. | :25:58. | |
gratifying. You are looking fresh today? It was | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
late last night. I went home and turned into a pumpkin. | :26:03. | :26:12. | |
So, will Q-Ice get a television award the next time? It is tie- | :26:12. | :26:18. | |
breaking time. Lucy and Iwan are hanging on poolside. So, let's have | :26:18. | :26:25. | |
the final round of Q-Ice. Give it to us! What is the longest | :26:25. | :26:35. | |
:26:35. | :26:44. | ||
train delay to have happened in the Four days?! It has been good to me | :26:44. | :26:54. | |
:26:54. | :26:54. | ||
all night. I'm going B... OK, well the right answer is in fact, C. | :26:54. | :27:01. | |
Lucy, you got it right! Oh, Iwan, you are in the pool, my love! | :27:01. | :27:06. | |
on, Iwan. Come on, let's get this gown off! | :27:06. | :27:16. | |
:27:16. | :27:21. | ||
Strip off! He is so brave! Oh, no! Katherine, you are a cold-water | :27:21. | :27:27. | |
swimmer and a GP, what is he feeling now? He is going to feel | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
cold now but even colder in a minute. His heart rate is going up. | :27:31. | :27:35. | |
He is going to be quickly breathing, but he will be fine. | :27:35. | :27:42. | |
He is a youngish, a fit man. Will he be OK? He is going to be fine, | :27:42. | :27:47. | |
but we have lifeguards here in case he needs them. | :27:47. | :27:51. | |
Should anyone else be doing this thing? Anyone with a medical | :27:51. | :27:55. | |
condition or who is pregnant should ask their doctors first. | :27:55. | :28:00. | |
Iwan is a very, very brave man. Stay in for a minute. He is OK. | :28:00. | :28:05. | |
What a brave guy he is. Back to you. It was interesting hearing the | :28:05. | :28:09. | |
other guy having a chat. So get him over to the side and ask him how it | :28:09. | :28:16. | |
feels. Let's have a chat with him. Get him over! Iwan, come over! | :28:16. | :28:24. | |
I get out? I love you One Show for making me do this! It is beautiful! | :28:24. | :28:32. | |
He is so cold. No! Brilliant. Well done, Iwan. | :28:32. | :28:35. | |
A hero! I thought Lucy would have jumped in. | :28:36. | :28:39. | |
I don't blame her. Well, listen, thank you very much for joining us. | :28:39. | :28:45. | |
That is all we have time for. Alan is on the Leicester Comedy Festival | :28:45. | :28:48. | |
on the 14th of February and the Hammersmith Apollo on the 16 and | :28:49. | :28:54. |
