:00:19. > :00:26.Hello and welcome to The One Show. Now, we weren't on air on Friday

:00:27. > :00:29.night as Sport Relief took over BBC One, raising well over ?53 million

:00:30. > :00:41.and our Alex played a considerable part. We can reveal you raised an

:00:42. > :00:53.incredible... Well it was thanks to many of you

:00:54. > :00:59.that Alex managed to raise such a massive amount of money. We were

:01:00. > :01:02.going to give Alex the day off to recover but she wasn't having any of

:01:03. > :01:03.it. Ladies and gentleman, please welcome our Sport Relief legend...

:01:04. > :01:29.Alex Jones! What take your rightful place. It is

:01:30. > :01:35.so nice to sit down and be on solid ground and be back with you. This is

:01:36. > :01:49.much more comfortable. We've picked out some highlights we want to hear

:01:50. > :02:03.your side of the story on. I have not seen any. Don't let me go, for

:02:04. > :02:16.God's sake. I don't know what to do, I'm not standing on anything. I

:02:17. > :02:26.can't! I can actually recall the precise

:02:27. > :02:30.feeling of that half an hour. I had only just started climbing and I

:02:31. > :02:35.thought, what have I taken on? I felt out of my depth. The enormity

:02:36. > :02:41.of the challenge took over. I felt so tiny against this massive rock

:02:42. > :02:51.and so petrified. I tried to man up a bit by the second day. How do you

:02:52. > :02:56.get through something like that? I was just thinking, you have

:02:57. > :03:02.committed to something. You are the same, when you commit, you just have

:03:03. > :03:07.to get to the top. You don't want to let anybody down, you know people

:03:08. > :03:14.have donated before you started and you just want to get to the top. You

:03:15. > :03:24.just have to overcome the fear. We were inundated with questions. A lot

:03:25. > :03:33.of them on one particular topic. Linda Smith was intrigued as to how

:03:34. > :03:37.you went to the toilet? We were on this ledge, smaller than a double

:03:38. > :03:41.bed. At the beginning of each day and the end of each day, Andrew

:03:42. > :03:46.would put some music on and we would take it in turns to be under the

:03:47. > :03:51.sleeping bag. So I would be under the sleeping bag and he would do

:03:52. > :03:56.what he needed to do. Then he would put the sleeping bag over his head

:03:57. > :04:00.and I would do what I needed to do. It was that unpleasant. How many

:04:01. > :04:09.times did you go to the toilet? Just twice a day. I should have drunk

:04:10. > :04:14.water, but I didn't. You obviously did get it together, you had been

:04:15. > :04:17.climbing for a couple of hours when you had another wobble, but when you

:04:18. > :04:24.look at these pictures, you can understand. During training,

:04:25. > :04:33.everybody said, you will get the exposure thing. I think I just got

:04:34. > :04:37.that bit. Did you look down? You had to talk yourself around and think,

:04:38. > :04:46.it is fine. The rope feel elasticated and a little bit

:04:47. > :04:51.unsteady. Everything has gone again. You are so tiny. It is the exposure

:04:52. > :04:56.thing. You realise how high you are. Trying to get over that is the

:04:57. > :04:59.biggest... This afternoon I have been looking through loads of

:05:00. > :05:05.letters you have sent with your donations. Thank you so very much, I

:05:06. > :05:13.will take them home tonight and read them. And you can see the full

:05:14. > :05:17.documentary of Alex Against the Rock on the iPlayer via The One Show

:05:18. > :05:30.website. So let's reveal the total...

:05:31. > :05:48.Here it comes. Your total, as it stands up a moment is...

:05:49. > :05:57.That is thank you to all of you, you have been so kind and generous. And

:05:58. > :06:08.more from the Le Murte acrobats a bit later on. We know so many of you

:06:09. > :06:13.have donated, but if you haven't got round to it yet then there's still

:06:14. > :06:15.time - so many charities around the world benefit immensely from your

:06:16. > :06:31.donations. So if you can donate text ALEX to 70005.

:06:32. > :06:37.Still to come, a completely different kind of rock, thank

:06:38. > :06:42.goodness! A rock legend! Roger Daltrey joins us in a few moments.

:06:43. > :06:45.But first, three parent IVF is probably not a term you've heard

:06:46. > :06:53.before, but it might be one that you'll be hearing in the future.

:06:54. > :06:59.Jasmine Harman explains that why in certain medical cases, three parent

:07:00. > :07:03.may be better than two. These images show a new form of IVF.

:07:04. > :07:08.Instead of using two donor parents, this embryo is being created with

:07:09. > :07:12.DNA from three people. It is ground-breaking science and if

:07:13. > :07:18.approved, the UK will be the first country to allow it. But it is

:07:19. > :07:21.controversial. Doc has said this could help eliminate serious

:07:22. > :07:26.diseases, but critics say it is unethical and could set the UK on

:07:27. > :07:32.the path to designer babies. The brains behind the procedure are here

:07:33. > :07:35.at Newcastle University. They have developed it to combat a fatal

:07:36. > :07:45.illness which is passed from mother to child. Mitochondria, like the

:07:46. > :07:50.batteries in every cell in our body, is when those batteries go wrong. In

:07:51. > :07:53.simple things it means all of the cells don't have enough energy to

:07:54. > :07:59.work properly. It can be devastating. We have one family

:08:00. > :08:03.where they have lost five children within the first 48 hours of life.

:08:04. > :08:13.Why have you developed this technique? There isn't a cure for

:08:14. > :08:17.mitochondria and for many families, this is to be prevented from

:08:18. > :08:24.happening. This is a recording of how they carry out the procedure.

:08:25. > :08:29.This is a fertilised egg using traditional IVF methods and this

:08:30. > :08:35.part, the nucleus is where everything about how the baby looks,

:08:36. > :08:41.eye colour, hair colour is stored. The team will remove the nucleus and

:08:42. > :08:48.all of the faulty microcosm rear is left behind in this part of the egg.

:08:49. > :08:58.Then, the nucleus is put into another egg, a donate from a third

:08:59. > :09:01.party who has healthy mitochondria and it will create a baby that does

:09:02. > :09:07.not carry the disease, if it is successful. Nicky only learned she

:09:08. > :09:14.had the disease when her daughter was diagnosed with it ten years ago.

:09:15. > :09:25.She was probably about 11 when she started presenting problems. I tried

:09:26. > :09:34.to ignore it, rightly or wrongly. I knew, what happened to me was

:09:35. > :09:37.starting... Nicky and Carly both suffer weakness in their leg

:09:38. > :09:45.muscles. They fully support this new research. It is not designer babies.

:09:46. > :09:50.We not saying we want a blonde haired, blue-eyed child. We don't

:09:51. > :09:55.want to have something awful onto your offspring. You just want a

:09:56. > :10:01.normal, healthy child who will grow up to be a normal healthy adults. If

:10:02. > :10:06.this new technique is allowed by Parliament, it could regulated in

:10:07. > :10:08.the same way as organ donation. This means the identity of the donor will

:10:09. > :10:14.be kept anonymous and never revealed. The critics could argue it

:10:15. > :10:18.is happening too fast, too soon and is a step too far, because even

:10:19. > :10:23.though almost all the child's DNA will come from its parents, it will

:10:24. > :10:29.inherit a tiny fraction, no .1% from the egg donor, so he or she would be

:10:30. > :10:35.a product of three people. How will this affect his children when they

:10:36. > :10:41.grow up? It might create biological and social problems for the

:10:42. > :10:46.children. But we are talking about a tiny percentage of DNA, what is

:10:47. > :10:52.wrong with that? If we start to go down this road, as a society, we

:10:53. > :10:57.will be saying lines aren't worth living and that is the beginning of

:10:58. > :11:02.designer babies. But experts believe the technique is justified. Is it

:11:03. > :11:10.ethical or is it laying God? There will always be some people who it is

:11:11. > :11:17.not acceptable to. My view is, if society is broadly supportive, is it

:11:18. > :11:24.ethical not allow this to go ahead? Having just had a baby myself, I

:11:25. > :11:28.cannot imagine the horror that I had passed on an incurable disease to

:11:29. > :11:33.her, so I can understand why this technology is so exciting. It is now

:11:34. > :11:39.waiting for a vote in Parliament to decide whether 3-person IVF should

:11:40. > :11:43.be allowed, a decision which could be made by the end of the year.

:11:44. > :11:47.Thanks Jasmine. Later on we'll be meeting the people

:11:48. > :11:53.who have found some World War One artefacts and we'll be trying to

:11:54. > :11:57.trace to whom they belong. And this footage was found in an attic a few

:11:58. > :12:00.years ago featuring a band called the High Numbers, but can you guess

:12:01. > :12:17.'Who' they transformed into soon after?

:12:18. > :12:36.That's who The Who were before they were The Who. Please welcome, Roger

:12:37. > :12:44.Daltrey! Wellcome. How are you. Please take a seat. Very well. 50

:12:45. > :12:47.years of The Who this summer. We were wondering, will you be

:12:48. > :12:54.celebrating? Have you got something special planned? We are going to try

:12:55. > :12:59.to make a new record which will be the first for seven years. Then we

:13:00. > :13:06.will do the last tour, after the last one, before the next one, which

:13:07. > :13:14.will be never-ending. You will be out there again! We want to have

:13:15. > :13:50.fun. You have been collaborating on a new album with Wilko Johnson.

:13:51. > :14:00.As soon as we played that music, your feet wet tapping because it is

:14:01. > :14:03.good fun? Wilko Johnson was diagnosed with terminal pancreatic

:14:04. > :14:10.cancer a year ago. He was supposed to be dead in October! We were

:14:11. > :14:17.trying to make an album three years ago and never got round to it. When

:14:18. > :14:20.I found out his diagnosis, I said I will sing anything you like, let's

:14:21. > :14:28.just do this for fun. I do believe just music can do a lot of healing.

:14:29. > :14:33.It will not cure him but it might extend his life. We did it for fun,

:14:34. > :14:41.we did it in eight afternoons. So it could have been four days. Two guys

:14:42. > :14:44.with no expectations, loving what they do and doing it for the right

:14:45. > :14:53.reasons. We didn't even have a record deal when we made it. My bet

:14:54. > :15:00.is going to cancer is. It said, that you said you will do anything, you

:15:01. > :15:05.will sing Three Blind Mice, what is it that makes you desperate to

:15:06. > :15:19.collaborate with him? He is one of those rich -ish guitarists that only

:15:20. > :15:28.the British make. -- British. He is a one off. Because of the speed you

:15:29. > :15:35.did it out, it has a real, live feel to it, it is not overproduced? It is

:15:36. > :15:41.fresh. A lot of things today, computers take control. It is

:15:42. > :15:45.difficult to get these modern producers off a polishing stuff too

:15:46. > :15:56.much and sometimes you lose the little rawness of it. It is

:15:57. > :16:01.certainly not bland! I was jumping around the kitchen! Their new album,

:16:02. > :16:09.Going Back Home, is available from today. Is to remind Dan need your

:16:10. > :16:18.help to discover the rightful owners of some World War I artefacts. --

:16:19. > :16:23.history man. We are trying to find the heirs of these artefacts from

:16:24. > :16:29.the First World War, but this is the latest instalment of our film about

:16:30. > :16:35.World War I heroes. I am Tessa Bailey, and my Great War

:16:36. > :16:41.heirloom is a piece of bread. It is the last ration that my grandfather

:16:42. > :16:45.brought out of his prisoner of war camp at the end of the war. This is

:16:46. > :16:53.what the poor prisoners had to eat every day. It's made out of sawdust

:16:54. > :16:58.and potato peeling is, and its rock hard and has survived nearly 100

:16:59. > :17:06.years but still looks very much like a piece of bread. Not one you would

:17:07. > :17:12.want to eat. My grandfather was with the troops fighting in the

:17:13. > :17:15.trenches, and they were captured and taken across Europe, staying in

:17:16. > :17:22.different prison camps until they ended up there. My grandfather wrote

:17:23. > :17:27.down a detailed description of everything that happened to him from

:17:28. > :17:33.the moment he was captured. The cravings for food obsessed us and

:17:34. > :17:37.filled our thoughts, the pain of such hunger was excruciating and

:17:38. > :17:42.left us pale, weak and emaciated. Being able to read something in his

:17:43. > :17:50.own handwriting, so personal about his experience, is just a lovely

:17:51. > :18:00.link to someone I wish I had met. My name is Anna Brown, and my Great

:18:01. > :18:05.War heirloom is a piece of material from a jacket with a message. He

:18:06. > :18:16.asked his friends to write a letter in front -- in the form of a poem to

:18:17. > :18:20.send back to his wife. To my dear wife Bess, in the land of the free,

:18:21. > :18:26.good luck I send on this piece of khaki. It's not a choice card or a

:18:27. > :18:29.sweet-scented packet, but torn from the back of my old khaki jacket.

:18:30. > :18:34.It's sheltered me long through rain and through storm, the danger I've

:18:35. > :18:40.been through I've met with no harm. And I hope that the time will not

:18:41. > :18:49.long be when you'll welcome again your hubby in khaki.

:18:50. > :18:58.My name is Leslie, my Great War heirloom is a letter sent to my

:18:59. > :19:02.grandmother, Jennifer Duncan. My grandmother Jenny was a nursing

:19:03. > :19:08.sister during the war years, and from Manchester she was sent out to

:19:09. > :19:14.France. The letter is from a Thomas Close on behalf of Fred Gossard, who

:19:15. > :19:21.was a patient under my grandmother's care. His dying wishes

:19:22. > :19:28.were that is thanks was passed on. It's beautiful, a beautiful letter.

:19:29. > :19:32.Nurse Watkinson, language cannot be expressed his appreciation of your

:19:33. > :19:37.devotion to duty, and I've coupled my gratitude with his, for I was

:19:38. > :19:41.impressed with the true dignity and nobility of character he revealed to

:19:42. > :19:46.me in speaking of you in his dying moments by his repetition, Tom, I

:19:47. > :19:53.should not have been here now but for the night nurse, she is an

:19:54. > :20:01.angel. I would imagine she would have been very moved. She was

:20:02. > :20:06.somebody very special. Dan joins us now, and we need

:20:07. > :20:11.viewers help once again. We really do, and this is exciting, we might

:20:12. > :20:18.make history tonight. What have you got, Steve? I have got a 1940-15

:20:19. > :20:24.campaign staff. Where did you find this? This is a medal. I found it

:20:25. > :20:28.when I was landscaping in a garden in Chislehurst, it was nothing to do

:20:29. > :20:40.with the owners of the house, so they let me keep it. It belonged to

:20:41. > :20:45.a capped and hopped on, -- Captain Hockton. If everybody knows of this

:20:46. > :20:50.guy, of any ancestor that is alive, we think he is the fine looking

:20:51. > :20:55.gentleman with the dog. We have got a name, a unit, get in touch. We

:20:56. > :21:00.would love to return this to its rightful owner. Would you not be sad

:21:01. > :21:05.to part with it? Not at all, I have got my grandfather's medals, and

:21:06. > :21:09.this deserves to go to his family. Martin has his reading glasses on

:21:10. > :21:16.for a good reason. This is very special indeed, it is a diary,

:21:17. > :21:24.explain who wrote it. A British Red Cross nurse serving in a General

:21:25. > :21:27.Hospital in Le Havre in 1918. A woman's I view of the fighting on

:21:28. > :21:31.the front line, absolutely extraordinary. We have got a section

:21:32. > :21:36.that is one of your favourites, do you fancy reading it out? Yes, she

:21:37. > :21:41.was treating a dying Australian soldier, and she writes, I came off

:21:42. > :21:45.duty quite miserable, and I thought about him all night. I kept wishing

:21:46. > :21:51.I could have kissed him, he was so very far from home, and he died at

:21:52. > :21:55.3am. It gives you goose bumps. She would never have thought that so

:21:56. > :22:01.many people would have just heard that. You rescued this. I found it

:22:02. > :22:08.in a box full of rubbish which a neighbour asked me to take to the

:22:09. > :22:11.dump. Thank goodness you didn't, it is very special. We have found a

:22:12. > :22:16.census record, she was born in Lancashire, get in touch. She was

:22:17. > :22:24.married in 1920 and may have died in 1968, many of all children might be

:22:25. > :22:28.able to get in touch. If, like me, you are interested in reading more

:22:29. > :22:32.of this diary, we have put this week's entries on the One Show

:22:33. > :22:37.Facebook page. Thank you for bringing them in. We will keep

:22:38. > :22:41.everything crossed. Alistair McGowan has travelled as far south as

:22:42. > :22:45.Cornwall investigating British languages, dialects and accents, but

:22:46. > :22:50.so far he's only travelled as far north as Edinburgh and Glasgow. The

:22:51. > :22:56.next stop, you would think it would be Aberdeen, but apparently not...

:22:57. > :23:04.Aberdeen, famous for football, steak and oil, and known by everybody in

:23:05. > :23:08.Scotland as the Granite city. Most people down south, as they say a

:23:09. > :23:18.peer, would be familiar with the Glaswegian accent of the likes...

:23:19. > :23:24.But in the third city of Scotland, people have a very distinctive way

:23:25. > :23:30.of talking. But if you want to spot and Aberdeen accent, what sounds

:23:31. > :23:42.should you be listening out for. Dominic Watt knows them all. People

:23:43. > :23:46.replace WH with F. So man goes through the back of the mouth.

:23:47. > :23:55.People use a diminutive suffix on the end of words, so man becomes

:23:56. > :24:00.manny. Lets go and have a little listeny at sea of people fall into

:24:01. > :24:04.the traps. In a suburb just two miles south of the city centre,

:24:05. > :24:09.Billy and Allen both have classic Aberdeen accents. What was your work

:24:10. > :24:19.when you were working? I was a street sweeper. 25 years I swept

:24:20. > :24:26.outside here. We crocheted blankets, and we have just knitted 70 hats for

:24:27. > :24:32.seafarers. Every seafarer that comes into Aberdeen, I like to give them

:24:33. > :24:41.something, and it was woolly hats. A woolly hat will keep your ears warm.

:24:42. > :24:43.So, listening to Billy talking, we have heard some fantastic Aberdeen

:24:44. > :24:55.sounds, some of the ones you were talking about, the back of the mouth

:24:56. > :25:02.A, earies. Perfect examples. But I like this, Aiberdeen. I was

:25:03. > :25:11.expecting Aberdeen. You hear the people on the news, from the South,

:25:12. > :25:15.they say Aberdeen. Aberdeen! It is as if they have never heard the

:25:16. > :25:22.word, it is Aiberdeen! But where do sounds like these come from? The

:25:23. > :25:25.answer lies in an ancient dialect called Doric and in rural

:25:26. > :25:36.Aberdeenshire you'll still find many older people who grew up with it as

:25:37. > :25:39.their mother tongue. You spoke it at home, and suddenly

:25:40. > :25:44.you went to school and you were expected to speak English, like a

:25:45. > :25:48.foreign language almost. You would get slapped for speaking it at

:25:49. > :26:02.school. Can you give as an example of it but we knew? -- between you?

:26:03. > :26:16.Take us through some of the words that we have heard. That is a word

:26:17. > :26:25.for cattle, that is for wet weather. A lot of great words are very

:26:26. > :26:36.descriptive kind of words, dugs, clart, dubs is mud. I like that, we

:26:37. > :26:44.have some new sounds, but some that we heard earlier in Aberdeen. Yes,

:26:45. > :26:51.we heard the F for WH. And some diminutive suffixes. Can we see that

:26:52. > :26:54.it is a Doric accent? It grew up in that part of Scotland, it's diverged

:26:55. > :26:58.a bit from the rural speech roundabout, and it took on its

:26:59. > :27:04.fundamental form, but fundamentally yes. So the Aiberdeen accent is both

:27:05. > :27:09.the sound of a modern Scottish city and the echoes of a centuries old

:27:10. > :27:18.dialect. Thank you to Alistair. Before you

:27:19. > :27:22.go, we must talk to you about... And anvil is passing! You are a big

:27:23. > :27:31.supporter of the Teenage Cancer Trust, in its 14th year. Who will

:27:32. > :27:36.have you got playing? We have got a comedy micro night with John Bishop,

:27:37. > :27:46.a host of people, too many to name. We have got the Duo. And A

:27:47. > :27:55.Supporting Act? That Is Me, Wilko And I! We are actually supporting
