:00:20. > :00:24.Hello and welcome to the One Show with Matt Baker. And Alex Jones.
:00:24. > :00:28.Our guest, the actor who taught Harry Potter how to fly and is
:00:28. > :00:33.about to teach Marilyn Monroe how to act. She has previously played
:00:33. > :00:40.her door, a leprechaun, a talking piece of skin, and one of the best-
:00:40. > :00:46.known sitcom mums on British telly. It is Zoe Wanamaker. You played
:00:46. > :00:53.Cassandre, a piece of skin, in Doctor Who. That must have been
:00:53. > :01:00.challenging. It was great. Did it stretch you as an actor? Yes,
:01:00. > :01:05.tremendously, I loved it. My Family came to an end in September. Do you
:01:05. > :01:09.think it was time? I think so. We had great fun doing it and it was
:01:09. > :01:15.always a surprise when we were commissioned to do more. We always
:01:15. > :01:19.had good fun. I think it had had its time. 11 years is a long time
:01:19. > :01:24.and you said you were glad you would not have to sit on the sofa
:01:24. > :01:30.again because it was uncomfortable. I wanted to get rid of it. I beg
:01:30. > :01:35.for it to disappear. It cut you off right there, and if his atomic you
:01:35. > :01:41.were like that. Yours is better because it makes you sit up. -- and
:01:41. > :01:44.if you sat on it. Later, more tips from Arthur Smith on how to write a
:01:44. > :01:51.best-selling novel and we will be chatting to Zoe about her new film
:01:51. > :01:54.which tells the story of Marilyn Monroe's visit to the UK in 1956.
:01:54. > :02:00.And Alex is incredibly excited because she will be wearing one of
:02:00. > :02:05.Marilyn Monroe's dresses. She had her eyes down and everything.
:02:05. > :02:10.know. Before that, Anita Rani looks at the enduring legacy of the
:02:10. > :02:14.biggest blonde bombshell of them all.
:02:14. > :02:20.Marilyn Monroe, one of the most famous faces of the 20th century,
:02:20. > :02:24.and now the subject of a new movie. As well known for her life off-
:02:24. > :02:28.camera as on screen, Marilyn starred in 30 films and was married
:02:28. > :02:34.three times. But what was Marilyn really like, and why does her
:02:34. > :02:39.legacy live on the almost 50 years later? Marilyn Monroe arrived in
:02:39. > :02:43.London with her new husband and playwright, Arthur Miller, to make
:02:43. > :02:47.The Prince And The Showgirl. The film starred and was directed by
:02:47. > :02:50.revered actor Laurence Olivier. would come on the set and you would
:02:50. > :02:55.hope that she would remember her line said it would all go well. You
:02:55. > :03:01.would think, my goodness, I hope she is going to be all right. Once
:03:01. > :03:05.she got the flow and whatever it is, it was fine. What was the
:03:05. > :03:10.atmosphere like concept? She was always late. You can imagine,
:03:10. > :03:14.people get frustrated. You think, what are we going to do, we have to
:03:14. > :03:19.keep on schedule. What was her relationship with Sir Laurence
:03:19. > :03:23.Olivier? He was patients himself with her and he would surely her
:03:23. > :03:28.long, but the tension was there. She wanted to be a great actress
:03:28. > :03:32.and she certainly picked a great man to help her. She was like a
:03:32. > :03:38.child, but she was magic when she appeared, that is the point. She
:03:39. > :03:42.was magic in front of the camera. And it is part of this time that a
:03:42. > :03:47.week with Marilyn focuses on, featuring the seven days missing
:03:47. > :03:53.from the original diaries of a third assistant director, Colin
:03:53. > :03:57.Clark. We decided to take you on an adventure. It was a week in which
:03:57. > :04:02.their friendship grew and she played hookey from the set. Michele
:04:02. > :04:06.Morgan has spent years researching Marilyn, publishing several books
:04:06. > :04:12.about her. I have seen the movie and you have read the diaries. Do
:04:12. > :04:16.you believe Colin Clark's story? Whether the diaries that he kept
:04:16. > :04:19.were entirely true or embellished somewhat, I don't think we will
:04:19. > :04:24.ever know. She must have had some determination because she came from
:04:24. > :04:28.nothing and became the most famous woman on the planet. To go from
:04:28. > :04:32.being in an orphanage to be in the world's most famous movie star, she
:04:32. > :04:38.had a lot of guts and ambition. Once she decided to do something,
:04:38. > :04:42.there was no stopping her. Marilyn won several awards in her acting
:04:42. > :04:48.career, including the Golden Globe, but never the much coveted Oscar.
:04:48. > :04:51.The ultimate question, was she a talented actress? I think she was a
:04:51. > :04:55.talented actress to convince us that she was like the movie persona
:04:55. > :05:00.of Marilyn Monroe, because in real life I think she was very different
:05:00. > :05:06.but we were totally convinced that her blonde personality is her real
:05:06. > :05:11.personality. What was her enduring appeal? Certainly the vulnerability
:05:11. > :05:15.that we see in Marilyn Monroe has added to the iconic status over the
:05:15. > :05:20.years. But I don't think anybody has got close to actually telling
:05:20. > :05:24.us who the real Marilyn Monroe was. Marilyn Monroe continues to
:05:24. > :05:31.mesmerise new generations, thanks to a life that was equally as
:05:31. > :05:35.fascinating and as flawed as the park as any of the roles she played.
:05:35. > :05:45.You play her acting coach, Paula Strasberg, but really she is much
:05:45. > :05:46.
:05:46. > :05:56.more than that. I think so. Her husband started an acting school,
:05:56. > :05:59.which was basically taken from the way of work for actors which was
:05:59. > :06:03.completely different from declamatory acting, people hanging
:06:03. > :06:10.on to the curtains and being completely over-the-top. He started
:06:10. > :06:13.a method of working for actors to actually try to touch base with
:06:13. > :06:18.their characters and transform themselves into the character.
:06:18. > :06:23.Paula Strasberg's husband took that into his own method. And a lot of
:06:23. > :06:28.actors, particularly in the 1940s and 1950s, got involved with that.
:06:28. > :06:35.Was that what she was struggling with? I think Marilyn felt she was
:06:35. > :06:40.not a proper actress. Therefore, she took up the method to try to
:06:40. > :06:43.make herself a better actor. So I think when she came to London, she
:06:43. > :06:50.was an American working with Laurence Olivier, who was the
:06:50. > :06:55.greatest star actor in the world. And she was the greatest film
:06:55. > :07:05.actress in the world. And that chemical combination should have
:07:05. > :07:05.
:07:05. > :07:10.been wonderful. Because Marilyn was struggling, trying to be a method
:07:10. > :07:15.actress, Paula was there to help her through that. It is difficult
:07:15. > :07:21.when she is playing a little chorus girl. I said she is more than that.
:07:21. > :07:28.Let's have a look at you trying to convince her that she is great.
:07:28. > :07:33.were superb, Marilyn, divine. Have faith in your talent. He was
:07:33. > :07:38.disappointed in me. You are a great actress. All my life I have prayed
:07:38. > :07:43.for a great actress who I could help and guide. Like this. I prayed
:07:43. > :07:50.to God on my knees and he has given me you. You are that great actress,
:07:50. > :07:57.man in. Trust yourself, trust your talent. Get up. Not until you admit
:07:57. > :08:04.you are great. Do you, as an actress, think that
:08:04. > :08:10.Marilyn Monroe was a good actress? Yes, I do. That is what Lawrence
:08:10. > :08:14.Olivier was struggling with. Her instincts were funny, and she was
:08:14. > :08:20.bright. I think she was really bright and she doubted that. She
:08:20. > :08:26.had great doubt in her talent and her belief that what she had innate
:08:26. > :08:33.sleep was good enough. But I think a lot of performers have that
:08:34. > :08:41.problem, people have that problem. Everybody has that problem. For
:08:42. > :08:46.Marilyn, it was about becoming the character she played and finding
:08:46. > :08:51.confidence in that. But she was also sick at the time. Marilyn was
:08:51. > :08:55.sick during the filming of that. There is a possibility that she
:08:55. > :09:00.lost her baby during that time. All of that was going on, plus her
:09:00. > :09:05.feeling insecure. She was surrounded by British actors.
:09:05. > :09:10.out tomorrow, My Week With Marilyn. Arthur Smith is on a mission,
:09:10. > :09:13.finding out how to write a best- selling novel. Last week he
:09:13. > :09:18.discovered he needed good characters and settings but also
:09:18. > :09:27.had to choose a pen name beginning with C. Even after all that, there
:09:27. > :09:30.is the small matter of getting it Many of our greatest best-selling
:09:30. > :09:36.authors must have been shocked to learn that writing a book was a lot
:09:36. > :09:41.easier than getting it published. So, if I were to write a potential
:09:41. > :09:45.bestseller, how do I get myself spotted? Stephen Kelman is a new
:09:45. > :09:51.author who was not just spotted but shortlisted for this year's Booker
:09:51. > :09:56.Prize. I did what we are told to do as aspiring writers, which was to
:09:56. > :09:59.try to find myself and agent. I did that by buying a copy of the
:09:59. > :10:04.Writers' and artists' Yearbook and getting a list of agents from that
:10:04. > :10:08.and sending off my three sample chapters and my covering letter.
:10:08. > :10:13.The first three rejected it for various reasons. 4th time around I
:10:13. > :10:18.struck gold with my eventual agent. After six months of polishing, we
:10:18. > :10:23.sent it to publishers. Within a week, there were 12 knocking on the
:10:23. > :10:29.door, wanting to snap up the rights. You must have been amazed at the
:10:29. > :10:33.trajectory of a man in his flat on his own. There you are at literary
:10:33. > :10:38.parties end up for awards. Yes, it was a long dream of mine since I
:10:38. > :10:41.was six, the only thing I had ever wanted to do. His success rested on
:10:41. > :10:47.publishing editors picking his manuscript from the hundreds they
:10:47. > :10:51.receive each week. What makes one stand out? I will firstly consider
:10:51. > :10:55.how it has been pitched by the agent. If the story they are
:10:55. > :10:59.telling me has grabbed me, that will make me want to look at it. If
:10:59. > :11:04.in the opening pages I have been grabbed by the voice or the set-up,
:11:04. > :11:07.I will put that on to the top of my pile and read it as quickly as I
:11:07. > :11:13.can. Whether you like it or not must be decided sometimes on how
:11:13. > :11:16.you are feeling on that day. Yes, it could be that if one comes along
:11:16. > :11:22.set in South Africa in 1870 and I have read three prior to that set
:11:22. > :11:26.in the same pot of the world at the same time, I may be feeling set-up
:11:26. > :11:31.-- fed up. It is not any fault of the novelist, but for that reason I
:11:31. > :11:34.think editors should remain humble. Also, authors should keep hope and
:11:35. > :11:39.keep trying, because who knows what is going on in the mind of the
:11:39. > :11:44.editors, or on their desk? Publishing comes from the age of
:11:44. > :11:50.the printing press. With the Internet, maybe that is a thing of
:11:50. > :11:54.the past. Perhaps I should publish myself. Self-publishing is not a
:11:54. > :11:59.new thing. A lot of people have had books published, vanity publishing.
:11:59. > :12:05.It is interesting that one or two people have sold over a million
:12:05. > :12:09.copies without the books ever being imprint. So I could effectively
:12:09. > :12:16.published myself. Yes. There are always exceptions but you would
:12:16. > :12:19.probably languish on Amazon at number 553,026. But if you did
:12:19. > :12:24.something to promote it, you would probably see your book moving up
:12:24. > :12:28.the chart. And he should know. 14 years ago, his company spotted the
:12:28. > :12:34.potential of the then unknown Harry Potter. But even Harry Potter did
:12:34. > :12:39.not fly officials immediately. boss set us a target to sell 30,000
:12:39. > :12:42.by Christmas and we would get a set -- a case of champagne. We just
:12:43. > :12:48.scraped it. When the second one came, the retailers did not jump up
:12:48. > :12:50.and down on it, so we promoted the books. The painted a train red. JK
:12:50. > :12:55.Rowling arrived at King's Cross station and we got a fantastic
:12:55. > :12:58.amount of media coverage. That started to kick things off. After
:12:58. > :13:03.you have written your first bestseller, the question is, can
:13:03. > :13:08.you write another? Stephen Kelman is facing the challenge of the
:13:08. > :13:13.second book. It has come with a few added pressures. The expectations
:13:13. > :13:18.are different. Most of all, I don't want to disappoint people. I don't
:13:18. > :13:22.want to disappoint myself. I want to prove that I can repeat whatever
:13:22. > :13:26.success the first one has had. have published your bestseller. All
:13:26. > :13:32.that you have to do now is to write the next one, and the one after
:13:32. > :13:39.that, and the one after that. luck with that. Zoe, talking about
:13:39. > :13:45.Harry Potter, you played Madam Hooch. Hogwarts flying instructor.
:13:45. > :13:50.What a claim to fame. In the first Harry Potter film. That was good
:13:50. > :13:54.fun. That photograph was my first day of filming. I walked onto the
:13:54. > :14:02.green and I saw these kids standing there with broomsticks. I thought
:14:02. > :14:06.it was the best thing ever. Because it is the book. That, I suppose,
:14:06. > :14:11.when you read a book and then it comes to life like that, it is very
:14:11. > :14:18.joyous. You have had an incredible career, but your parents, both
:14:18. > :14:24.actors, did not want you to go into the profession. No. Why? Your dad
:14:24. > :14:30.was so successful. I think they know it is a very precarious and
:14:30. > :14:34.competitive situation to throw yourself into. Especially for a
:14:34. > :14:39.girl. I think for a woman, it gets harder and harder as you get older.
:14:39. > :14:48.Also, I think they were scared I was not very good. Which is a
:14:48. > :14:52.What was the turning point? I think because I really, really wanted to
:14:52. > :15:00.do it. I really wanted to do it. I went to
:15:00. > :15:04.art school. I did... I went to a secretary course for a while. I
:15:04. > :15:09.just really wanted to do it. I think when that happens you can't
:15:09. > :15:15.stop anybody. If they want to do it, then on your own head.
:15:15. > :15:19.Somebody else who is passionate is Marty Jopson. N and so far, Marty
:15:19. > :15:25.Jopson has played with begun powder and dapled with dynamite. Tonight
:15:25. > :15:31.he finds out how to launch a projectile using explosives. It is
:15:31. > :15:35.not brain surgery, is it? No, it is rocket science.
:15:35. > :15:40.Today rockets launch satellites into space, flares into the sky and
:15:40. > :15:44.even landed us on the moon, but what is a rocket? It is an
:15:44. > :15:51.explosion, a controlled and contained explosion, but still, a
:15:51. > :15:55.big, noisy explosion. Paul Mulvihill is a pyrotechnics
:15:55. > :16:02.expert who has studied the history of rockets. We have come to a
:16:02. > :16:07.testing range to see how a 1,000- year-old Chinese weapon of war
:16:07. > :16:15.rocket called a Ground Rat would scare off the enemies.
:16:15. > :16:23.The bamboo would have begun powder pushed into the end with a diffuse
:16:23. > :16:29.it would scare off the enemy. Ready? 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... It is still
:16:29. > :16:35.doing something?! The Ground Rat was effective in early warfare. It
:16:35. > :16:43.works in the same way as all rockets. From this little toy to
:16:43. > :16:48.the latest rocket being developed by NASA. A rock set a tube that
:16:48. > :16:54.shoots gases out of one end. That action pushes the body out of the
:16:54. > :17:01.body of the rocket in the other direction. It is Newton's Law.
:17:01. > :17:05.As I pump air into this plastic bottle, there is so much air, the
:17:05. > :17:12.air rushes out and the rocket body bit flys in the other direction
:17:12. > :17:21.like this... That's rocket science. A British military colonel called
:17:21. > :17:27.William Congrieve saw its potential. The disused buildings in Waltham
:17:27. > :17:30.Abbey, uepbl recently, Dave Simms worked here, it makes him a proper
:17:30. > :17:36.rocket scientist. So, where did you get the
:17:36. > :17:40.inspiration for the rocket? Indians used rockets against the
:17:40. > :17:46.British in India it did cause casualties. I guess he thought that
:17:46. > :17:50.would be useful for us too. He worked night and day for five
:17:50. > :17:56.years, perfecting the design in 1806.
:17:56. > :18:01.This is a mark II rocket. With an iron case.
:18:01. > :18:07.There is a pressed charge inside. So this is all begun powder?
:18:07. > :18:13.Correct. That propels it forward. At the top end, contained in a
:18:13. > :18:18.thicker case, this would explode. So that was the bomb at the end?
:18:18. > :18:24.Exactly. Stabilised by a pole that make it is years to aim, the rocket
:18:24. > :18:29.uses two explosives, one to proel and one to explode, making it
:18:29. > :18:33.devastating. Used against Napoleon, the rocket soon spread to other
:18:33. > :18:38.wars. The most famous use was in a battle
:18:38. > :18:47.with the Americans that we had at Fort McHenry, it is commemorated in
:18:47. > :18:54.the American National Anthem. # The rockets red flare
:18:54. > :18:59.# Bursting into air... # Paul and I are making something a bit like
:18:59. > :19:03.this Congrieve rocket. We are using a pre-made begun powder rocket
:19:03. > :19:06.motor. That's the motor, we are attaching
:19:06. > :19:13.that to a stick or something? bamboo stick.
:19:13. > :19:16.So, that will go on the side there? Yes.
:19:16. > :19:26.Well, we should give it a whirl, I suppose.
:19:26. > :19:27.
:19:27. > :19:37.# Setting off a rocket. # Slot it into this here... Perfect fit.
:19:37. > :19:39.
:19:39. > :19:47.Here we go. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1! Welcome at that! That was brilliant! It was
:19:47. > :19:54.good, wasn't it? A firework display in the daytime. You can't beat it.
:19:54. > :20:01.Now, another fan of the rockets is here. Dan Snow, by the 20th century,
:20:01. > :20:08.other nations were winning the rocket race? As so often, the
:20:08. > :20:16.Americans, probably the father of modern rockets, a guy called Robert
:20:16. > :20:22.Goddard. He worked with liquid pro pull shone.
:20:22. > :20:27.That went 2.5 seconds in the air, it went 50m and crashed into a
:20:27. > :20:32.cabbage patch. Basically, that was the beginning of something big. In
:20:32. > :20:35.his life he was ridiculed, it is only know we are regarding him as
:20:35. > :20:41.the great generator of the whole thing. Who had the lead in the
:20:41. > :20:47.Second World War? The Germans weren't so. The Americans did early
:20:47. > :20:54.running, sorry, the Germans invested loads. The V2 rockets,
:20:54. > :21:00.thousands of them were launched against Britain in 1934. One in
:21:01. > :21:06.November 1934 it killed two people. It terrifying rocket. You could not
:21:06. > :21:11.shoot them down. There was nothing you could do. Developed by Tom
:21:12. > :21:16.Werner. After the war his Nazi credentials were forgotten about
:21:16. > :21:19.and he masterminded America's rockets.
:21:19. > :21:23.The man on the moon, a lot of it is down to him.
:21:23. > :21:30.On to another bombshell of a different type, Alex, it is time
:21:30. > :21:35.for you to get changed. I can't wait.
:21:35. > :21:41.Marilyn's dress, off you go. Before, that 2012 Olympics, some of
:21:41. > :21:47.the UK's athletics are seeing their dreams failing before they finish
:21:47. > :21:51.their training. Bozboz has wondered what the 1988
:21:51. > :21:56.Olympics Committee would say about that.
:21:56. > :22:01.A world-class stadium, the state- of-the-art facilities and a luxury
:22:01. > :22:04.athletes' village. That is what the whopping �9 billion budget is to
:22:04. > :22:08.bring to 2012 Olympics. Now, with all of this money being
:22:08. > :22:12.spent it would be nice to think that everything possible is being
:22:12. > :22:17.done to help Britain's top sports men and women prepare for this once
:22:17. > :22:22.in a lifetime opportunity. 00 metre runner, Richard Buck has
:22:22. > :22:28.had success on the track winning four major medals.
:22:28. > :22:33.But after the glory... Despair. UK Sport invest more than �100 million
:22:33. > :22:36.a year to support our elite athletes, but UK Athletics, the
:22:37. > :22:44.body that decides which athletes get the funding say that they can
:22:44. > :22:48.only back those with a realistic chance of fining -- finishing in
:22:48. > :22:52.the top eight of their athletic event. That means for some, like
:22:52. > :22:57.Richard, their dream means they don't get out of the starting
:22:57. > :23:03.blocks. 2012 Olympics disease not think
:23:03. > :23:08.that Richard has it in him to win one. From next month his funding
:23:08. > :23:13.comes to an end. I lost �10,000 in cash and extras
:23:13. > :23:18.such as medical insurance. It is like losing your job, but you have
:23:18. > :23:23.to turn up to work but not get paid. I am picking up extra work and
:23:23. > :23:27.training crazy hours in the morning and the evening. It is not easy.
:23:27. > :23:32.When you look at people with the funding, they don't have to
:23:32. > :23:42.compromise their training funding. Richard is not the only one
:23:42. > :23:46.suddenly facing a cash crisis. The brutal reality of being an
:23:46. > :23:51.Olympic hopeful. If you are not good enough, you will not get a
:23:51. > :23:55.penny. That is what happened to Sophie Johnston. She is ranked
:23:55. > :23:59.British number two in her judo weight, but faces her toughest
:23:59. > :24:04.fight so far. Competing for selection for next year's Olympics,
:24:04. > :24:11.having lost her funding from British Judo worth �7,000.
:24:11. > :24:15.When I got the phone call I was devastated. It will make it very
:24:15. > :24:19.difficult financially. How will you feel if you don't know
:24:19. > :24:23.make it? Hmm... I would be devastated.
:24:23. > :24:27.It has literally been everything in my life that I've been working
:24:27. > :24:32.towards. I started judo when I was seven. I went to full-time training
:24:32. > :24:38.at 18. I have been working towards this for a long time.
:24:38. > :24:42.Training 24/7 does not come cheap. Sophie's funding helped to pay for
:24:42. > :24:48.her to train with the other athletes in the gym.
:24:48. > :24:53.It is hardly a glamorous life? not really. 18 of us live here in
:24:53. > :24:58.the house sharing facilities. You are competing against people
:24:58. > :25:02.with funding? I have to work inbetween to earn the money. It is
:25:02. > :25:07.hard, but I'm determined to give it all that I can, obviously, to win a
:25:07. > :25:11.medal at the Olympics next year. Which athletes get lottery funding
:25:12. > :25:15.is reviewed every year, but by the time that next year's funding
:25:15. > :25:19.decisions are announced, the Olympics are over. Both are
:25:19. > :25:25.determined not to give up on their dream, so they are looking for
:25:25. > :25:30.sponsorship while working more hours and trying to train. Can both
:25:30. > :25:39.find inspiration from an earlier generation of athletics? Dorothy
:25:39. > :25:45.and John both kpweeted in the 1948 -- competed in the 19 48 Games.
:25:45. > :25:51.I was working, I would do an hour or so running and then go home and
:25:51. > :25:57.work at the same time. Training camps were unheard of back in 1948.
:25:57. > :26:01.Training went as far as a weekend at Butlins holiday camp. John
:26:01. > :26:05.captured this on his camera. It was more of a social gathering.
:26:05. > :26:09.We met people there we would not have met otherwise before the
:26:09. > :26:14.Olympics it was enjoyable, but it was all very primitive.
:26:14. > :26:19.I can't say that I have any sympathy for the ones who have lost
:26:19. > :26:25.their funding. I believe it's a gift. God's gift
:26:25. > :26:32.that I was able to run. So why should I accept money for it? A
:26:32. > :26:36.medal is sufficient. Back in Loughborough, Richard is
:26:36. > :26:40.not feeling sorry foyer himself. He is keeping body and soul together
:26:40. > :26:43.by stacking shelves in a supermarket. Is there a worry that
:26:43. > :26:48.the performance drops off as you are here rather than at the track?
:26:48. > :26:53.There is always a worry, but it means I have to work harder here
:26:53. > :26:58.and harder on the track to beat these people. It's the Olympics, no
:26:58. > :27:03.matter how hard it gets I will keep pushing for it. It is my dream.
:27:03. > :27:09.Good luck to all of our athletes working hard getting ready for 2012
:27:09. > :27:15.Olympics. Now, has Alex managed to get into
:27:15. > :27:22.Marilyn Munroe's dress? So many questions spring to mind. Alex, are
:27:22. > :27:32.you there? I'm here, honey bunny! Well, the leg's in. Oh, my word,
:27:32. > :27:34.
:27:34. > :27:40.look at that! Looking good, Al. How does it feel? It feels amazing. Who
:27:40. > :27:46.would have thought I would be in a Marilyn Munroe's dress? Nice boys.
:27:46. > :27:50.Well, Andrew Hansford has written a book about all of the dresses,
:27:50. > :27:55.Dressing Marilyn. Tell us about this, Andrew? You look amazing in
:27:55. > :28:00.this. Stunning. I have not seen it on anybody before.
:28:00. > :28:03.This is actually marl ministerial marl's dress? Yes.
:28:03. > :28:10.-- this is actually Marilyn Munroe's dress? Yes.
:28:10. > :28:17.It is incredible. When it was new there would have been metal in it
:28:17. > :28:24.to pop it out. Let's have a look at Marilyn in the
:28:24. > :28:29.dress... See I'm not quite pulling it off like Marilyn? This is the
:28:29. > :28:33.prototype? The prototype was the first. Created so she could run
:28:33. > :28:39.around. So the fabric would have been different? No, it is exactly
:28:39. > :28:42.the same. My goodness, amazing. What about this one? This is my
:28:42. > :28:49.personal favourite. This was made for her it was made for a friend,
:28:49. > :28:55.not a movie. It is more emotive. In particular Marilyn style she went
:28:55. > :29:02.out, it was raining and she got a tyre mark up the side of it. You
:29:02. > :29:07.can see there. There is a lipstick stain also on the bottom! Now, I
:29:07. > :29:12.tried this dress on too, which was marvellous! This one fitted like a
:29:12. > :29:16.glove, but how much would the dresses cost? I could not say. Very
:29:16. > :29:21.few have been sold. It is a difficult one. The white dress did
:29:22. > :29:24.sell a few months ago for $4 .3 million.
:29:24. > :29:28.I'm so glad I did not drop coffee on this.
:29:28. > :29:31.Well, that is all we have time for, My Week With Marilyn is out
