:00:56. > :00:56.

:00:56. > :01:01.Vernon Kay. There was a wonderful introduction. Does that doesn't

:01:01. > :01:09.always follow you around? Yes. This week at the service station, where

:01:09. > :01:14.we lived... You live at a service station! You should pop-up five. I

:01:14. > :01:20.was ordering some food and this man made the noise. I said, that's a

:01:20. > :01:26.top answer. Very funny. So you have a stock response. Yes, either that,

:01:26. > :01:29.or, let's see what our survey says. When I got the Family Fortunes job,

:01:29. > :01:34.Les Dennis phoned me up and he warned me that wherever I go for

:01:34. > :01:40.the rest of my life I would hear that bowser sound. But he is not

:01:40. > :01:44.getting paid and he is still hearing it. Vernon Kay is here, so

:01:44. > :01:50.we want to know if you have ever won a prize on the TV. If you have

:01:50. > :01:57.a Blankety Blank cheque book and pen, Bullseye bully, or anything

:01:57. > :02:03.else. Or a mug from Tear five. Maybe Dusty Bin. Send us a photo to

:02:03. > :02:12.prove it. On the eve of a Six Nations rugby weekend, we honing in

:02:12. > :02:16.on England versus Wales. Tonight, Will Carling will take on Gareth

:02:16. > :02:20.Thomas and Rob Jones in a live challenge to psychologically strike

:02:20. > :02:25.the first blow for their team. But do not worry, it will not be won

:02:25. > :02:30.against two. We will explain later. How about some company for Vernon

:02:30. > :02:40.Kay on the sofa? Head of the Oscars, we welcome the foxy Fresh femme

:02:40. > :02:40.

:02:40. > :02:46.fatale of 2012, Claudia Winkleman. Thank you. I already have questions.

:02:47. > :02:53.What were you buying? You were ordering food in a service station!

:02:53. > :03:00.Yes. He never stops eating. He eats more than most people in the studio

:03:00. > :03:05.put together. Sausage rolls. It is a pasty or sausage rolls from a

:03:05. > :03:10.petrol station. Technically, you are both married to Tess Daly. You

:03:10. > :03:17.are married her -- to her in real life, food and stuff, and you in

:03:17. > :03:22.terms of television. I am obsessed by her, and I imagine you are, too.

:03:22. > :03:29.Sometimes, I would mount her with no warning. She is so gorgeous and

:03:29. > :03:39.funny and lovely. And so are you. One of you said she has the best

:03:39. > :03:46.

:03:46. > :03:52.But who said that? Was in you? Probably, but I don't remember.

:03:52. > :03:59.is like a thoroughbred. She has these endless legs. You need to

:03:59. > :04:04.worry about her. Or else invite her over! This has suddenly taken a

:04:04. > :04:08.turn. We are also joined by the super hero of a super heroes, the

:04:08. > :04:17.man who invented Spider-Man, the Incredible Hulk and Iron Man. Mr

:04:18. > :04:22.Marvel, Stan Lee. He and his story coming up later. The movie tipped

:04:22. > :04:28.to sweep the board at this weekend's Academy Awards is The

:04:28. > :04:38.Artist. Carrie Grant has uncovered a real live silent star whose story

:04:38. > :04:38.

:04:39. > :04:47.She was a big star. She had her name in lights in Hollywood and she

:04:47. > :04:51.had not even so the word. This star of almost 70 silent films hailed

:04:51. > :04:56.from working-class Belfast and Gloria Gee in the name of Eileen

:04:56. > :05:03.Percy. Nearly a century on, there is no glorification of I mean. Not

:05:03. > :05:08.a plaque, not a statue, nothing. -- Eileen. In the 1930s, Eileen per se

:05:08. > :05:12.was the brightest of Hollywood stars. Here she is with Clark Gable.

:05:12. > :05:20.So how did this woman, who should have been an office girl, end up

:05:20. > :05:25.acting in Hollywood? She would have been living at number 33. It would

:05:25. > :05:28.have been a relatively small house with an outside toilet. Her

:05:28. > :05:35.educational and job opportunities would have been limited. She may

:05:35. > :05:39.have been able to stay at school until 14. 14! Yes, if she was

:05:39. > :05:43.fortunate. But for a lot of woman - - women, they could have left

:05:43. > :05:52.school at 12 and gone to work in the Mail. She may have become a

:05:52. > :05:57.typist, but no Hollywood scouts would have picked her up in Belfast.

:05:57. > :06:01.Born in 1900, Eileen was only seven when she left for America in search

:06:01. > :06:05.of the American Dream. Her family, like thousands of Irish immigrants,

:06:05. > :06:12.settled in Brooklyn and sent her to convent school. But she had other

:06:12. > :06:18.plans. By 11, she was working as a photographer's model, and by 15 she

:06:18. > :06:23.had worked her way into the chorus line of the Sixfields Follies.

:06:23. > :06:28.were extravagant shows on Broadway. Scandalous, but not CD. They

:06:28. > :06:32.starred many of the major actors of the period. Comedians and famous

:06:32. > :06:37.beautiful women. She was one of them. How did she come to the

:06:37. > :06:40.attention of Hollywood? When Douglas Fairbanks saw her, he

:06:40. > :06:45.realised she had a look that would be perfect for the camera and he

:06:45. > :06:48.lured her to Hollywood on a contract of $150 a week. It would

:06:48. > :06:54.have been a large amount of money but in a few years she was making

:06:54. > :06:57.something like $1,800 a week, more than most people made in a year.

:06:57. > :07:02.The movies moved to the West to catch the Californian sunshine.

:07:02. > :07:08.That year of celebrity had arrived, and screenplays almost played

:07:08. > :07:12.second fiddle to the fantasy lives of the stars. The teenager Eileen

:07:12. > :07:18.Percy signed with Fox pictures and over the next two decades she

:07:18. > :07:23.proved she was no one-hit wonder. She sparkled in 64 films. So how

:07:24. > :07:33.come no one round here knows who she is. She is a silent movie star.

:07:34. > :07:34.

:07:34. > :07:40.Never heard of her? Not winning any bells? No. A silent movie star.

:07:40. > :07:47.Something to do with the movies. my gosh, somebody knows her. I hope

:07:47. > :07:51.she was as good looking as you. has not even seen her. In the 1920s,

:07:51. > :07:56.the movies became the talkies. Like the star in The Artist, the

:07:56. > :08:02.struggle to adjust was her problem. She looked the part but with her

:08:02. > :08:07.Belfast accent she did not sound it. Careers crumbled and were born,

:08:07. > :08:12.because everything became about the voice. If you were Aileen per se,

:08:12. > :08:17.used to being associated with non- Irish roles, her voice did not

:08:18. > :08:22.register with audiences. -- Eileen Percy. None of her famous friends

:08:22. > :08:27.could help her. She appeared in just five more films. Tonight, we

:08:27. > :08:37.have brought her home in a special premiere. Are we ready to meet her?

:08:37. > :08:42.

:08:42. > :08:45.Is he a good deal or a baddie? He is a baddie. The Man From Painted

:08:45. > :08:49.Post is one of her best films. Here, she plays to perfection the role

:08:49. > :08:59.that catapulted her into the big- time, the love interest of Douglas

:08:59. > :09:00.

:09:00. > :09:04.Fairbanks. She died in Beverly Hills in 1973, but here, below the

:09:04. > :09:09.Belfast Hills, the girl from Vernon Street is once again making a name

:09:09. > :09:14.for herself. Thwarted by the talkies. But to die

:09:14. > :09:19.in Beverly Hills, there are worse things. You have worked in America.

:09:20. > :09:23.You had voice coaching to thrash -- to flatten your northern vowels.

:09:23. > :09:28.There seemed to be the problem with the middle of America understanding

:09:28. > :09:34.my accent. They found it quite difficult to understand my northern

:09:34. > :09:39.charm. What happened in the coaching sessions? It is

:09:39. > :09:45.stereotypical. Around the ragged rock them ragged rascal ran. And

:09:45. > :09:51.you talk slowly. And you'd talk proper. And that was it. So it was

:09:51. > :09:55.like My Fair Lady. Was that over here, or was it in the States?

:09:55. > :10:01.was in America with an English lady who had been there for a long time.

:10:01. > :10:07.She also taught Americans to have an English accent. Gwyneth Paltrow,

:10:07. > :10:12.her accent is so good. Let's talk about actors and actresses. Over

:10:12. > :10:16.the weekend we have the Oscars. You have already done your show. Yes,

:10:16. > :10:21.we had an argument about who would win. What is a weird is that every

:10:21. > :10:24.year I think, cannot start with, I can't believe they left this one

:10:24. > :10:29.out and I am so grumpy about it. This year we promised we would not,

:10:29. > :10:37.but there are such glaring omissions that we just shouted for

:10:37. > :10:42.15 minutes. Have they not seen it? Thank you very much for watching!

:10:42. > :10:47.Every year, I get properly excited. And you shout in this studio,

:10:47. > :10:51.because this is where you film the programme. We broadcast live, and

:10:51. > :10:56.when we do it there are six of us and I am still brushing the baby

:10:56. > :11:01.sick out of my hair. There is a half-eaten packet of prawns. I

:11:01. > :11:08.expected the same thing tonight but there are humans here. And there is

:11:08. > :11:14.no mess. On Friday morning after your show, because it is live...

:11:14. > :11:18.you make it messy? It is like 50 people have had a party in here.

:11:18. > :11:26.is not so much messier. There is a draw in the make-up room with

:11:26. > :11:32.sweets in it, and on Thursday morning it is empty. I am so sorry.

:11:32. > :11:37.I did not know it was yours. Share and share alike. I will fill it.

:11:37. > :11:41.You have pouches of chocolates. There will be a cat fight later and

:11:41. > :11:51.we are selling tickets. You have some alternative Oscars. Yes,

:11:51. > :12:01.because the person who phoned me ask me for ideas. Shame has got no

:12:01. > :12:03.

:12:03. > :12:05.recognition at the Oscars. Shame. My best run is for Michael

:12:05. > :12:12.Fassbender him that. It is a beautiful shot and he runs for

:12:12. > :12:17.about 18 minutes. We can see him here. You might be thinking, what

:12:17. > :12:22.is she on about? But he leaves his apartment and he runs, and it is

:12:22. > :12:30.absolutely beautiful. There is no other reason you want Michael

:12:30. > :12:37.Fassbender to get an Oscar. He is extraordinary. He is very good in

:12:37. > :12:41.it. So that is that. And I love to Young Adults. If you have not seen

:12:41. > :12:50.it, Charlize Theron is great in it and should be in the Best actress

:12:50. > :13:00.category. And her clothes are phenomenal. This is my best dressed.

:13:00. > :13:00.

:13:00. > :13:06.It is a tracksuit! I see where you are going. Look, that is fabulous.

:13:06. > :13:14.She looks amazing. It is the way that she wears it. It is a

:13:14. > :13:18.brilliant story. Whatever. Your third alternative Oscar. The best

:13:18. > :13:28.film is The Artist, but if it is not, it is the Muppets, which I

:13:28. > :13:30.

:13:30. > :13:36.cannot go on about enough. I go daily. So do I. It is brilliant.

:13:36. > :13:42.You are not keen on The Artist? it is the film of the year, but it

:13:42. > :13:48.feels like a foregone conclusion. People have been saying, wait until

:13:48. > :13:58.you see this. And it is a real dog, not the dog from the moppets. This

:13:58. > :14:04.

:14:04. > :14:14.# Am I a man, or am I a Muppet. If I am a Muppet, I am a very manly

:14:14. > :14:24.Muppet. # If I am a man, that makes me a

:14:24. > :14:24.

:14:24. > :14:28.Ahead of the Oscars, we have an Oscar here. This could be a prop,

:14:28. > :14:36.because they are not difficult to make them look like one on the TV,

:14:36. > :14:43.but this is real. We can only handle it wearing gloves. They took

:14:43. > :14:53.the gloves away. It was won by somebody in 1981. You can look at

:14:53. > :14:54.

:14:54. > :15:00.it. That is heavy! Move on. This is for animated short film. Daniel

:15:00. > :15:05.Greaves. Soon, the hero behind some of our favourite superheroes, Stan

:15:05. > :15:14.Lee from Marvel comics. First, Alex Riley on how a super hero comes

:15:14. > :15:19.Super heroes look out for us around the clock, keeping us away from

:15:19. > :15:25.evil and whatever keeps us awake at night. But have you ever stop to

:15:25. > :15:29.wonder as we sleep soundly, how his life for them? Beneath the tights

:15:29. > :15:32.and the mask the superhero is often a complex individual. Two were

:15:32. > :15:40.understand them, we need to examine the Times in which they were

:15:40. > :15:43.created. Superman, can you coming? How do you do that? As well as

:15:43. > :15:48.having an encyclopaedic knowledge of music, Paul Gambaccini knows

:15:48. > :15:54.what makes the heroes take. 1930s were a time of economic

:15:54. > :15:57.disadvantage which makes today look like a gold rush. Superman is the

:15:58. > :16:02.hero and advocate, what the common man wanted during the Depression in

:16:02. > :16:06.the run-up to the Second World War. The friend of the helpless and

:16:06. > :16:11.depressed is Superman. That is the appeal. He is someone people could

:16:11. > :16:14.identify with. He doesn't have all the powers he has today. Huge

:16:14. > :16:19.distances are swiftly covered with giant leaps, he's not flying, just

:16:19. > :16:22.jumping. This man is a product of his time. They had to get the

:16:22. > :16:28.builders in after his last appointment. Anger management

:16:28. > :16:34.issues. Next up, another creation that broke the mould. Our friendly

:16:34. > :16:38.neighbourhood Spiderman. A regular sufferer of teenage angst.

:16:38. > :16:42.Spiderman was very much about an honest, emotional response to being

:16:42. > :16:47.young. Interesting that originally he had Ali's occasionally, but you

:16:47. > :16:51.don't see that. It is about the evolution of the art over time. He

:16:51. > :16:57.is a young boy, a school kid, has trouble getting the girl, always

:16:58. > :17:03.losing out to the jocks. This is like reading my own life. Then he

:17:03. > :17:07.gets bitten by a radioactive spider, radiation again, Cold War territory

:17:07. > :17:11.and he turns in to a super hero endowed with superpowers. It is

:17:11. > :17:14.only when he encounters a criminal and decides in that moment not to

:17:14. > :17:20.stop the criminal that the legend is born, because that criminal goes

:17:20. > :17:23.on to murder Peter Parker's uncle, so this kid, who is already

:17:23. > :17:29.suffering with the banks of teenage life has a guilt complex. He could

:17:29. > :17:32.have stopped this guy, but he didn't. What a tangled web we weave.

:17:32. > :17:36.Some might assume my next appointment has issues with the

:17:36. > :17:42.opposite sex. Not true, although until she came along, all

:17:42. > :17:51.superheroes were men. Wonder Woman, I can see you now. Wonder Woman was

:17:51. > :17:56.the first superhero Whom It girls could create -- relate to. The

:17:56. > :18:00.crater was actually a man who thought it wasn't -- who had helped

:18:00. > :18:02.create a lie-detector, and the thought it was great to have a

:18:02. > :18:06.character who could catch people with the last two and make them

:18:06. > :18:11.tell the truth. The success of Wonder Woman helped lead to the

:18:11. > :18:17.feminist movement. It's not that I hate men, they just getting my way.

:18:17. > :18:23.Super here rose, so much history, so many issues. -- Super heroes.

:18:23. > :18:29.Now for the Invisible woman. welcome the man be fined --

:18:29. > :18:35.Spiderman -- behind Spiderman, it is damn it Lee. So nice to see.

:18:35. > :18:39.Nobody told me the show was live. I am terrified. The tea is not

:18:39. > :18:45.really! Yours Super heroes have inspired all around the globe, but

:18:45. > :18:50.who inspired you to design the Super heroes? Everything I saw and

:18:50. > :18:55.dread inspired me. When I was a kid there was an actor called Errol

:18:55. > :19:00.Flynn, I don't know if you remember him, but he was my hero. He was the

:19:00. > :19:04.Sheriff of Dodge City and he played Captain Blood. He was always

:19:04. > :19:08.duelling with people. When I left the theatre after an Errol Flynn

:19:08. > :19:14.movie, I was about 12, I would have a crooked little smile on my face,

:19:14. > :19:18.the way I thought he smiled, and an imaginary sword at my side. I would

:19:18. > :19:24.be looking for a little girl but a bully might be picking on so that I

:19:24. > :19:29.could defend them. Good boy, stand. Tell us about the moment Spiderman

:19:29. > :19:33.was born in your head. What happened was, I had to, with the

:19:33. > :19:36.new super hero because I had done a few before that. I worked for a

:19:36. > :19:43.publisher and he said the other ones were selling, give me another

:19:43. > :19:47.one. The first thing you need with a super hero is what he's he's

:19:47. > :19:52.superpower? I was thinking and thinking and then I saw a fly

:19:52. > :19:59.crawling on a wall and I said, well! What if they hero could climb

:19:59. > :20:06.on waltz like a flight, so then I needed in a, and I thought fly a

:20:06. > :20:13.man. -- needed a name. Then I cried, insect man! It wasn't glamourous

:20:13. > :20:23.enough. I went down the list, musky tone manner. Then finally,

:20:23. > :20:25.

:20:25. > :20:30.So a legend was born. And we can see your superior is behind us. Is

:20:30. > :20:39.it true that you cannot actually sketch yourself very well. So how

:20:39. > :20:45.does it work? Who sketches your super heroes for you? I don't draw

:20:45. > :20:49.them. What I would do is, with the idea, then I would choose who will

:20:49. > :20:55.I thought was the right artist and we would get together and I would

:20:55. > :21:01.tell him what I wanted and we collaborated. At that time we had

:21:01. > :21:07.an artist called Jack, he was the best around. He did the fantastic

:21:07. > :21:11.Four with me, the X-Men. When I came up with Spiderman, he drew

:21:11. > :21:18.very heroic things. When I wanted Spiderman, I said that I wanted him

:21:18. > :21:23.to draw it and said, Jack, don't make him look to heroic. I want him

:21:23. > :21:27.to be quite an ordinary kid. But Jackie is so used to drawing

:21:27. > :21:32.everyone to look like Captain America, when I saw the drawings I

:21:32. > :21:42.said, that isn't what I want, but Jack didn't care. Then I called

:21:42. > :21:44.

:21:45. > :21:49.Steve ditto -- Ditko. He did exactly what I had in mind, and it

:21:49. > :21:53.was perfect. I have forgotten what the question was. No, it was the

:21:53. > :22:02.perfect answer. You are at some kind of important comic convention.

:22:02. > :22:06.I said that to the people in the car, why am I here? I hope it is an

:22:06. > :22:11.important comic convention. I would hate to travel across the ocean for

:22:11. > :22:18.an unimportant comic invention. is the London Super Comic

:22:18. > :22:22.Convention. I didn't even know the name, it is a beautiful name.

:22:22. > :22:28.You're one of the best guess we have ever had on the show, and

:22:28. > :22:32.you're certainly the best 89-year- old you we have had -- we have had.

:22:32. > :22:37.Is that it? I am just getting started. You are better than the

:22:37. > :22:41.rest of us put together. Give him more of the money! Right, I imagine

:22:41. > :22:45.one day you are enjoying life on the golf course, and the next

:22:45. > :22:48.you're getting on a plane against your will, and knowing your

:22:48. > :22:53.innocence and you will end up behind bars. There is a man making

:22:53. > :23:00.that journey now, in the air as we speak. We sent Simon to meet him on

:23:00. > :23:05.his last day of freedom here in the UK. This is the world of Chris

:23:05. > :23:09.tapping, golf and grandchildren, winding down gently after a life in

:23:10. > :23:12.business, but his life has been turned upside down after a 35 year

:23:18. > :23:23.his will. Chris is due to leave the green belt tomorrow, possibly in

:23:23. > :23:28.handcuffs, and his destination is a jail some way in America. That is

:23:28. > :23:33.why I have come to see him on his last day of freedom. I am

:23:33. > :23:37.devastated. I am very worried, not only for myself, but my family and

:23:37. > :23:42.my wife. She has supported me all the way through this ordeal. It

:23:42. > :23:47.seems very frustrating that I should be leaving her side to go to

:23:47. > :23:51.a foreign land on a charge which has been trumped up. In 2006, Chris

:23:51. > :23:56.says he was asked to import industrial batteries from Texas to

:23:56. > :24:00.a car company in Amsterdam. Unknown to Chris, the exporter was a front

:24:00. > :24:05.for undercover US customs officers and they claim that Chris knew the

:24:05. > :24:09.batteries were intended for Iranian Hawk missiles. What is your

:24:09. > :24:13.involvement in this? For he was a routine deal, a client buying goods

:24:13. > :24:17.in another country and we would do the shipping of the goods from

:24:17. > :24:22.there to the UK. The export licences required by the American

:24:22. > :24:26.customs were supposed to be done by the exporter, that is why they are

:24:26. > :24:31.called export licences. What is it you have actually been accused of?

:24:31. > :24:37.Attempting to ship goods without an export licence. If it is not your

:25:01. > :25:02.

:25:03. > :25:09.He's not going to be coming home to me every night. And he's a little

:25:09. > :25:12.grandson won't see him. The US prosecutors say they have evidence

:25:12. > :25:15.Chris was part of eight wider conspiracy that has led to two

:25:15. > :25:20.convictions. What is the problem with extraditing suspected

:25:20. > :25:24.criminals? Extradition has a place in ensuring justice is done. Most

:25:24. > :25:29.people would be pretty alarmed to know that they can be shipped off

:25:29. > :25:32.to another country, whether it is America, Russia, Turkey, Azerbaijan,

:25:33. > :25:38.without a basic case made against them in a British court. He has

:25:38. > :25:41.gone through due process. Can he not just stand trial? He faces a

:25:41. > :25:46.number of years in prison in Texas before his case is even brought to

:25:46. > :25:50.trial, so he will have to possibly sell his home to pay for his legal

:25:50. > :25:54.defence. An independent legal review of the extradition treaty

:25:54. > :26:00.carried out by Sir Scott Baker found it was not unbalanced. But

:26:00. > :26:05.this week David Cameron said in a proper, sober, thoughtful review

:26:05. > :26:08.needs to take place and that this case shows why. Why could he not be

:26:08. > :26:13.tried here? There are many factors, including whether witnesses are

:26:13. > :26:16.located, where the evidence is, where the victims are. If they

:26:16. > :26:20.decide a prosecution is more appropriate in the US, then the US

:26:20. > :26:23.will submit an extradition request. The purpose of extradition is so

:26:24. > :26:28.the person can be tried in the country where the offence took

:26:28. > :26:32.place. The reason it is necessary is that crime is increasingly

:26:32. > :26:38.global, and with computers and even with telephones it is easy to stay

:26:38. > :26:43.at your home in the UK and commit crimes that affect countries all

:26:43. > :26:51.over the world. What is your worst fear? I don't know when he will be

:26:51. > :26:56.back. And I'm just scared. I am scared for him, because when we go

:26:56. > :27:01.to Heathrow he will be taken away and put on a flight to America. We

:27:01. > :27:07.don't know where in America and when we will hear about where he is,

:27:07. > :27:11.and I have no idea what is going to Whatever happens in that situation

:28:29. > :28:33.Who has been your favourite family? Stacey Solomon? She was the last

:28:33. > :28:39.series, but when you meet Stacey, you think she is a bit wacky, but

:28:39. > :28:44.very funny, when you meet her family you realise why that jigsaw

:28:44. > :28:48.fits so well. She's just in kindergarten where madness is

:28:48. > :28:52.concerned there. Family Fortunes has been going 33 years, and you

:28:52. > :28:56.were four when it started. Did you imagine as a little boy you would

:28:56. > :29:02.be hosting it? When I got into telly there were two things I

:29:02. > :29:10.wanted to do, top of the Pops, which I did once. He was on BBC Two,

:29:11. > :29:13.not BBC One. And then the other one... It still counts. The second

:29:13. > :29:18.one was hosting Family Fortunes, and it came around, and I thought I

:29:18. > :29:28.really wanted to do it. I love game shows, as you know. It snowballed

:29:28. > :29:28.

:29:28. > :29:34.You are doing Play Your Cards Right. We have done a pilot for that.

:29:34. > :29:42.Hopefully that will come on to TV. That was Brucie. How does that

:29:42. > :29:48.feel? I have made a phone call. I told him, Bruce, we are doing a

:29:48. > :29:54.pilot for Play Your Cards Right. Marvellous! He was so nice. Did he

:29:55. > :30:00.give you tips? Lots of tips. We did the pilot and he said, when I come

:30:00. > :30:08.back from Puerto Rico, bring their DVD and we will watch it. So how

:30:08. > :30:18.long is it? It is with proper contestants. It is with people,

:30:52. > :30:57.you the some of Brucie. What about Strictly. What if he retired?

:30:57. > :31:01.keep getting asked this all the time. I think it is because my wife

:31:01. > :31:09.hosts the show. There is a connection. Would you do it if they

:31:09. > :31:14.offered it to you? Yes, why not? It is a hit! And you have said you

:31:14. > :31:20.would definitely dance. I would give that ago. Be a contestant,

:31:20. > :31:26.have a word, and hosted next year. The listings might clash, but we

:32:31. > :32:41.is as topical as you can get. is called Friday. Gyles Brandreth

:32:41. > :32:43.

:32:43. > :32:47.Once upon a time, long ago, there was a mythical goddess, the mother

:32:47. > :32:55.of all the Norse gods. It is from her name that we get Friday. But

:32:55. > :32:59.who was she, and why is Friday named after her? Within the

:32:59. > :33:02.hallowed halls of Oxford University, there are those who delve back

:33:02. > :33:09.through the mists of time, studying and translating the earliest

:33:09. > :33:19.written records of Norse mythology. One such person is from St John's

:33:19. > :33:19.

:33:20. > :33:26.College. She is the one who can crack a Morse code. -- Norse code.

:33:26. > :33:31.In other places, Friday was named after Venus. That is how we get the

:33:31. > :33:35.French pronunciation. But in Norse cultures, it was the goddess of

:33:35. > :33:40.married love. It is the first record that we have of her giving a

:33:40. > :33:45.name to Friday comes back in Anglo Saxon times, over 1000 years ago.

:33:45. > :33:51.Who was she? She was the mother of all of the gods, married to the

:33:51. > :33:56.father of all the gods. She is very much a figure of three wifely

:33:56. > :34:00.devotion. But also she is the mother of the heir to the king of

:34:01. > :34:05.the gods. In southern Europe they have been us, a bit of a goer. But

:34:05. > :34:10.in the north, we have this one. She may have been more conservative

:34:10. > :34:13.than Venus, but she was not totally dull. Without her, we would not

:34:13. > :34:18.have one of my favourite Christmas season traditions, kissing under

:34:18. > :34:25.the mistletoe. Perhaps mistletoe guru Jonathon Briggs can take us to

:34:25. > :34:31.the root of the matter. Jonathan, what is the connection between

:34:31. > :34:35.mistletoe and Friday? Well, the goddess had a son with her husband

:34:35. > :34:39.and he had dreadful dreams foretelling his death. She managed

:34:39. > :34:45.to make everything that lived on the earth and flew in the sky and

:34:45. > :34:51.grew in the ground promise never to hurt him. And one Roma evil God

:34:51. > :34:55.realised she had missed out mistletoe. -- won rather evil God.

:34:55. > :35:01.So he constructed an arrow poisoned with mistletoe. He shot it at him

:35:01. > :35:05.and he fell dead. His mother wept tears over her dead son. Her tears

:35:05. > :35:09.became the translucent berries. But instead of mistletoe becoming a

:35:09. > :35:14.plant of doom and death, she decreed that from now one it would

:35:14. > :35:17.become a plant of love and peace, and that anyone meeting under the

:35:17. > :35:23.mistletoe in the winter months, when her tears were hanging on it,

:35:23. > :35:27.would greet each other and kiss each other. So it seems that her

:35:27. > :35:31.influence is still alive today. And I wonder, given the connection

:35:31. > :35:41.between her and kissing under the mistletoe, does that mean we are

:35:41. > :35:42.

:35:42. > :35:46.now allowed to do it every Friday? Gyles is here with his mistletoe.

:35:46. > :35:50.am allowed to do it this Friday because it is the first Friday

:35:50. > :35:59.after Ash Wednesday. Old English tradition has it that this is

:35:59. > :36:02.kissing Friday. Here I am! Yes! can hold it. Pucker up, while I

:36:02. > :36:10.share some news about kissing Friday, a tradition that lasted for

:36:10. > :36:20.hundreds of years and was abandoned the... Tests, are you watching?

:36:20. > :36:21.

:36:21. > :36:26.This is how it starts. -- Tess Daly. We are more refined here. Kissing

:36:26. > :36:31.Friday went out in the 1940s and we can see why! It was popular in

:36:31. > :36:36.Yorkshire and Leicestershire, where it was known as the nippy have day.

:36:36. > :36:39.People were positive about kissing Friday in the old days. Many people

:36:39. > :36:45.have reservations about Friday, traditionally a day of ill-fortune

:36:45. > :36:49.and bad luck, because of Good Friday, when Christ was crucified.

:36:49. > :36:59.Friday the 13th, the origin of that was 13 people at the Last Supper.

:36:59. > :37:00.

:37:00. > :37:06.Many people have a fear of Friday. There is a word for that. Is it

:37:06. > :37:10.Greek? It is Greek in origin, a fairer Friday. For some, Friday is

:37:10. > :37:14.a great day. When it is bad, they call it Black Friday. President

:37:14. > :37:19.Kennedy was assassinated on Friday, the first collapse in the American

:37:19. > :37:23.economy on a Friday, deaths of suffragettes, but for us it is a

:37:23. > :37:31.good day because some of the best people were born on Friday. What

:37:31. > :37:40.they were you born, Alex? It just happens to be Friday. Chris? Friday,

:37:40. > :37:45.too. You know what it says in the old poem? Get them off? It says

:37:45. > :37:51.Friday's child is loving and giving. You can see what day I was born on.

:37:51. > :37:56.Monday. Monday's child is there of face. And Claudia, Saturday's child

:37:56. > :38:02.works hard for its living. That could be you. And Vernon Kay, you

:38:02. > :38:12.were born on Sunday and the child that is born on the Sabbath day is

:38:12. > :38:12.

:38:12. > :38:18.Bonnie and blithe and good and gay. So he was wasting your time! That's

:38:18. > :38:27.showbiz. You are full of information. I am taking you home.

:38:27. > :38:32.That is what I hoped. This is your time to talk about Sport Relief.

:38:32. > :38:36.will do whatever they say. They have sent me on lots of projects.

:38:36. > :38:42.It is Friday the 23rd. Get involved, go to the website and do the Mile

:38:42. > :38:49.which is on Sunday. Six miles, three miles or one mile. It will be

:38:49. > :38:55.a great Sport Relief. This year, we don't just want your donations, but

:38:55. > :39:01.we want you to take part. We are looking for 1001 show viewers to

:39:01. > :39:07.take part in possibly the biggest relay event in the UK. It will take

:39:07. > :39:17.10 days non-stop to cover every inch of road. You will only have to

:39:17. > :39:17.

:39:17. > :39:22.run one mile. Anyone over 16 can There is lots of other stuff going

:39:22. > :39:31.on, if you cannot run so well. Let's get some sporting heavy

:39:31. > :39:41.weights on. Ex England rugby captain Will Carling. And Gareth

:39:41. > :39:52.

:39:52. > :39:56.Thomas. Also, Welsh scrum-half Rob Boys, easy, easy. Will Carling,

:39:56. > :40:04.what is going on tomorrow that has not happened for a while? Something

:40:04. > :40:10.is different tomorrow, isn't it? it? Yes, they are favourites.

:40:11. > :40:17.much so. They are favourites. The last time they were favourites was

:40:17. > :40:22.my first game. Robert was there. 1988. Were they favourite because

:40:22. > :40:26.you were playing? That was something to do with it. Will it be

:40:26. > :40:34.an advantage for England to be underdogs? Is that possible?

:40:34. > :40:37.Hopefully. I hate this. I find this very hard. They are a very, very

:40:37. > :40:41.good team with some great young players. And they are playing some

:40:41. > :40:44.great rugby. You look at England and you think, we shouldn't be in

:40:44. > :40:48.the game tomorrow. But it is Twickenham. They do not have a

:40:48. > :40:55.great record there. If we can get it into their heads and put them

:40:55. > :40:59.under pressure, who knows? latest initiative from the English

:40:59. > :41:02.RFU today was a message to the fans saying, please remember to sing.

:41:02. > :41:07.They have sent this out because Wales are so up for the game

:41:07. > :41:12.tomorrow that it will sound like Cardiff. Can you imagine that in

:41:12. > :41:16.Wales, sending a message to the fans? Something must be wrong in

:41:16. > :41:24.English rugby. If you have to ask the supporters to support, there is

:41:24. > :41:30.something wrong. We know that. are Wales going to smash England?

:41:30. > :41:34.Smash? Yes, that's right. They are a form team, without a shadow of a

:41:34. > :41:40.doubt. England were lucky to scrape through with two wins. It will be

:41:40. > :41:45.tough, but this team are so young that the history does not matter.

:41:45. > :41:51.Will Carling, tell England to win in one easy move. Win. I do think

:41:51. > :41:56.we have some good young players. What are they going to do? We have

:41:56. > :42:00.to get on the front foot. I think what they don't understand, talking

:42:00. > :42:05.about getting the crowd to cheer, there is something uneasy about a

:42:05. > :42:11.very quiet stadium. It is very English. Don't make too much noise,

:42:11. > :42:15.you know what I mean? It is a weird tactic, but we will go with that.

:42:15. > :42:22.We have to ask about Sport Relief, Gareth, because you are doing lots

:42:22. > :42:27.of stuff. One of the first -- main things I am doing is a 1000 mile

:42:27. > :42:37.challenge around the UK, for the first nation to come home. I have

:42:37. > :42:42.got it written down on my hand. is it normal for the scrum half to

:42:56. > :42:59.Did you know that cake can get into it secret society? The first rule

:42:59. > :43:04.is that you don't talk about it. Matt Allwright has already failed

:43:04. > :43:08.to grasp that concept. Somewhere near Leeds, Mike is not

:43:08. > :43:13.just baking a cake, but getting ready for the latest meeting of a

:43:13. > :43:17.secret society. We make cakes and we try not to make the same one as

:43:17. > :43:26.other people. But actually finding out where the event is being held

:43:26. > :43:29.is quite cool. It is that whole secretive, clandestine aspect of it.

:43:29. > :43:35.This mild-mannered systems administrator is an unlikely

:43:35. > :43:42.candidate for a double life. But I have followed him to the latest

:43:43. > :43:50.Clandestine Cake Club gathering. Location, upstairs, art gallery,

:43:50. > :43:54.restaurant area. There they are. It is a simple idea. You bake a cake,

:43:55. > :43:59.you bring it along, you eat other people's cakes, and then you take

:43:59. > :44:04.some home. It is spreading like butter cream up on a warm knife.

:44:04. > :44:09.There is even a branch in Barcelona. And as if the cake is not exciting

:44:09. > :44:14.enough, there's the added attraction of secret locations.

:44:15. > :44:24.This has an element of a hidden, secret things to it that makes it

:44:26. > :44:29.A retired bank worker founded the first Clandestine Cake Club a

:44:29. > :44:36.little more than a year ago and she changes the venue every time to

:44:36. > :44:39.keep it from going stale. I like the mystique of hidden places. I

:44:40. > :44:47.usually tell the guests and baker's where the event is a few hours

:45:01. > :45:06.have had pesto cake. We have had pistachio and lime cake. Every

:45:06. > :45:09.flavour imaginable has been seen at some of these cake clubs. I do not

:45:09. > :45:15.want people to take it too seriously. It is about fun and

:45:15. > :45:19.meeting people. Cake bakers across the UK soon wanted a slice of the

:45:19. > :45:25.action and her advice on how to set up their own clubs. Across the

:45:25. > :45:30.country, there are now almost 30 clubs. In total, more than 700

:45:30. > :45:34.members are using the club rules and website. New members simply

:45:35. > :45:40.register on the website to hook up with their local branch. It is a

:45:40. > :45:44.great way to meet new people and friends. A new recipes. Cake people

:45:44. > :45:51.are friendly people. They go out of their way to make something to

:45:51. > :45:59.share with other people's. That is my 4th slice. You are almost one of

:45:59. > :46:06.us. There are strict rules. No tarts, no Brownies, no cupcakes, no

:46:06. > :46:12.pies or muffins. Just proper, big cake. What would you do if I walked

:46:12. > :46:16.in with a tart? Any tart is not allowed. It has to be all about

:46:16. > :46:21.cake. We do not allow cupcakes, muffins. What about a repeat

:49:03. > :49:08.been out looking for race month creature that can dance. And we do

:49:09. > :49:13.not mean you, Anton Du Beke. -- for a smooth the creature. There is one

:49:13. > :49:18.creature that over hundreds of years has brought fear and terror

:49:18. > :49:25.to people all over the UK. With its copper coloured eyes and venomous

:49:25. > :49:29.bite, the adder is for many the stuff of nightmares. But the

:49:29. > :49:33.fearsome reputation is very much undeserved. Adders are actually

:49:33. > :49:37.incredibly docile snakes that will only ever attack if they are

:49:37. > :49:44.alarmed, and they actually have a very gentle side to their nature.

:49:44. > :49:48.One that very few of us have ever been privileged to witness. They

:49:48. > :49:54.have even been known to perform an elaborate dance, which is rare to

:49:54. > :49:57.see. Let alone filming it. The dancing occurs between two males

:49:57. > :50:06.driven crazy by the pheromones omitted from a newly emerged be

:50:06. > :50:11.male. But only one of them can mate with her. For an animal with the

:50:11. > :50:15.potential to kill, the adders settle the matter in a far more

:50:15. > :50:19.civilised way, a reptilian wrestling match. This means they

:50:19. > :50:26.saved their valuable venom for when they need it most, hunting their

:50:26. > :50:33.prey. The victor will have won the right to fertilise the eggs of the

:50:33. > :50:38.female. So, who would have thought, even with its venomous bite and

:50:38. > :50:44.supposedly evil demeanour, the Asda has evolved the ability to settle a

:50:44. > :50:48.meeting dispute with nothing more than a charming wolds. Far from

:50:48. > :50:54.being fearful of adders, we should cherish the opportunity to see them

:50:54. > :50:57.in the wild. In the UK, adders are becoming rare. Apart from their

:51:16. > :51:20.they need the warmth of the Sun to be able to hunt and mate. We have

:51:21. > :51:26.got some skins. Adders will shed their skins almost immediately

:51:26. > :51:32.after they emerge from hibernation. We have not got a snake, but the
