Hello and welcome to the one show with Matt Baker. And Alex Jones.

:00:19.:00:26.

Tonight, we are joined by a man who could have had his pick of any

:00:27.:00:31.

profession. He could have been an actor. He had the chance to be a

:00:32.:00:38.

spy. And almost became a professional footballer. Please

:00:39.:00:42.

welcome, formerly of this parish, Adrian Chiles! Nice to see you. I

:00:43.:00:49.

was nearly all of those things but only in my head. I did have an

:00:50.:00:56.

interview to be a spy. How did it come about? When I left university,

:00:57.:01:00.

I broke my leg and I did not know what I was going to do. I filled in

:01:01.:01:03.

my civil service exams and failed them both. I wanted to be a

:01:04.:01:08.

diplomat. Then I got a piece of paper saying there was other

:01:09.:01:13.

government work I could be suitable for. I bumbled down on micro-truce

:01:14.:01:18.

to central London. A woman interviewed me for three hours. I

:01:19.:01:26.

said, what is this about? She said she could not say what it was about

:01:27.:01:29.

but she was from British intelligence. It was MI5. It was

:01:30.:01:37.

starting to dawn on me. I told my mum and she misheard and she thought

:01:38.:01:46.

the woman had said I am from MFI! I was rejected. I would have been an

:01:47.:01:50.

awful spy! She said something to me at the time and she said the issue

:01:51.:01:55.

with you, it was a very in-depth interview like what we like at seven

:01:56.:01:59.

and did you have friends in the playground? She said, I think you

:02:00.:02:04.

have got a need for recognition in whatever you do. You need to show

:02:05.:02:09.

off a bit and talk about it. And then I ended up a broadcaster which

:02:10.:02:14.

was plainly right! All of this could be a cover-up. You could be

:02:15.:02:19.

undercover right now! Fortunately for us, you stuck to TV, you did not

:02:20.:02:24.

become a spy and we will talk about your documentary later. Overnight,

:02:25.:02:30.

we had a super response to our film about an returned NHS Mint which we

:02:31.:02:33.

showed yesterday. The first thing this morning we picked up the phone

:02:34.:02:38.

and rank Kevin. Where were you when we rang you? I was in the A I

:02:39.:02:44.

went to get an x-ray but I could sense that people were looking and

:02:45.:02:50.

thinking, what is he here for? Just jumping straight to it, we have had

:02:51.:02:55.

500 e-mails since the show last night. The response has been

:02:56.:02:59.

absolutely brilliant. Thank you to everyone who e-mailed in. What is

:03:00.:03:04.

the feeling? People are frustrated because they are trying to return

:03:05.:03:11.

their medical aids and they are being refused. Did you take your

:03:12.:03:16.

crutches back, Adrian? They got worn out but I did take them back. Susan

:03:17.:03:21.

got in touch and she said they don't want them. They do not reuse them

:03:22.:03:28.

and it costs is on ?3 50 to park in the hospital car park just to take

:03:29.:03:32.

them back. There is frustration there. Geraldine e-mailed in and

:03:33.:03:35.

said they did not want them. They said it cost them more to clean the

:03:36.:03:40.

items and recycle them down to buy new ones. You said a little white

:03:41.:03:47.

and sterilise. The good news is, if you live in Lincoln, you have to say

:03:48.:03:52.

thank you to Bob. Bob, you are an absolute champion. He works for a

:03:53.:03:56.

local same day courier company in Lincoln. He says, we would welcome

:03:57.:04:01.

members of the public to drop off and used NHS equipment to our

:04:02.:04:03.

deathbed and we will deliver all items free of charge back to the

:04:04.:04:07.

Lincoln County Hospital. Bob, brilliant news, well done. And

:04:08.:04:16.

Lincoln will definitely take them, you have confirmed that. Yes, they

:04:17.:04:21.

will. There are different policies. Some trusts take them back and some

:04:22.:04:25.

don't. All we are trying to do is see if we can find some solutions,

:04:26.:04:29.

solutions where we can help the NHS saves money and the only way we can

:04:30.:04:33.

do that is with your help. Please, please, keep your e-mails coming and

:04:34.:04:37.

we will give you an update next week. Aside from this subject, you

:04:38.:04:41.

have been looking into something else for us. I've been looking at

:04:42.:04:47.

the Royal British Legion. They have upset some members of their women's

:04:48.:04:50.

section. They are moving heaven and earth to try and bring them back.

:04:51.:04:57.

This is how I got on. Remembrance Sunday. Final

:04:58.:05:01.

preparations of service people, veterans and the public gathered to

:05:02.:05:05.

pay their respects. The Poppy Appeal has been run by the Royal British

:05:06.:05:13.

Legion since 1921. A sitting, sombre and respectful commemoration. But

:05:14.:05:16.

behind the scenes, the mood is anything but. There is trouble at

:05:17.:05:22.

the Legion. -- a fitting commemoration. This is the Royal

:05:23.:05:30.

British Legion's women's section. We felt as if we had been wiped under

:05:31.:05:36.

the carpet. They are quitting. We have been slapped in the face and

:05:37.:05:41.

stabbed in the back. And taking their firepower elsewhere. Guess, it

:05:42.:05:47.

is upsetting. The Royal British Legion was formed after the First

:05:48.:05:51.

World War to support ex-service people. Alongside it, and

:05:52.:05:55.

independent but sister organisation called the Royal British Legion's

:05:56.:06:01.

women's section. It is wrong to support the partners and families of

:06:02.:06:06.

the people who is -- it was to support the partners and families of

:06:07.:06:12.

the people who served. But a cost-cutting plan led to merge. We

:06:13.:06:20.

have discovered dozens of branches have closed or are planning to.

:06:21.:06:26.

Including Hazel Kingswood's branch in Norfolk. There is 150 years worth

:06:27.:06:33.

of friendship in this group here. We caught up for them -- we caught up

:06:34.:06:38.

with them in September and they feel the identity is being eroded. I

:06:39.:06:44.

think they are taking way the women's right to make their own

:06:45.:06:46.

decision about what organisation they belong to. The women's section

:06:47.:06:53.

of the Royal British Legion was formed in 1921 alongside the Legion

:06:54.:06:57.

to work as a semi-independent organisation and we have done that

:06:58.:07:02.

Admiral Lee for 95 years. We were told our central committee would be

:07:03.:07:07.

done away with, as well as county committees. We need to downsize and

:07:08.:07:13.

streamlined. They are quitting. Leslie Wilcox says they have had no

:07:14.:07:20.

choice. I am an ex-service woman so I know what it is like to work for

:07:21.:07:25.

an organisation where you do follow orders but in this case we are all

:07:26.:07:28.

volunteers and it is sad that it has two ended this way. We have to walk

:07:29.:07:33.

away and they can get on without the benefit of our service. Then, just

:07:34.:07:41.

before Armistice Day, the Legion announced a stand down of its merger

:07:42.:07:47.

idea. The women's section will retain its national status, national

:07:48.:07:51.

standard, ceremonial dress and the chairman's seat on the board of

:07:52.:07:55.

trustees. But has the olive branch of peace come too late? Here at

:07:56.:08:01.

Manchester's Memorial, what do people involved with other charities

:08:02.:08:06.

for service people make of it? We are disappointed with that and we

:08:07.:08:09.

would obviously like them to stay and look after everybody. There are

:08:10.:08:13.

a lot of people to help them. De think it is more modern to have the

:08:14.:08:18.

men and women working together? Yes, it has got to be. There is no other

:08:19.:08:26.

way. It is costs. The feeling here is to survive, charities do need to

:08:27.:08:30.

modernise. It is the 21st century. They should work together. They do a

:08:31.:08:37.

lot. Combined, I think they could do a lot more. The charity agrees it

:08:38.:08:44.

must work more efficiently but it is promising a long-term future for

:08:45.:08:50.

itself governed women's section. And there is even an apology from the

:08:51.:08:53.

chairwoman. I am saddened to hear of any branch that wants to close. I

:08:54.:08:59.

would like to say that I am very, very sorry. We are looking to make

:09:00.:09:04.

how we deliver our welfare more efficient, and how we will make the

:09:05.:09:08.

best use of the hard earned money that our ladies have raised. I would

:09:09.:09:15.

urge each and every branch to reconsider and please come back and

:09:16.:09:19.

join with us again. Let's stand united. Will that be enough? Back in

:09:20.:09:28.

Norfolk, what has become of the former members of the women's

:09:29.:09:32.

section? They are plotting their next move. Hazel may have quit the

:09:33.:09:41.

Legion that she has not left volunteering. I will carry on with

:09:42.:09:47.

volunteering for as long as I can. Sadly, there is no way back into the

:09:48.:09:51.

Legion for me but I will volunteer because it is what I grew up doing

:09:52.:09:56.

and I will carry on doing it. It is interesting to see how many of those

:09:57.:09:59.

members will come back after that heartfelt plea from the chairman.

:10:00.:10:06.

Our sofa has filled up. Joining me is form a footballer Bobby Hazel and

:10:07.:10:16.

his wife. They feature in a documentary. For the last few

:10:17.:10:23.

months, people have asked me what I was doing and I said I was making a

:10:24.:10:28.

documentary about Whites versus blacks football match which

:10:29.:10:31.

immediately attracts attention. They said, where? Here they are coming

:10:32.:10:38.

onto the pitch at West Brom and it was a benefit game. Somebody decided

:10:39.:10:43.

to get a crowd together. We would have white players versus black

:10:44.:10:47.

players playing. It kind of felt progressive then, didn't it, Bob? In

:10:48.:10:54.

that era. Now it feels horrendous. The film was examining how things

:10:55.:10:57.

have changed, how much better things are and how much things have still

:10:58.:11:05.

got some way to go. Bob played for my sworn enemies Wolverhampton

:11:06.:11:08.

Wanderers and I am a West Brom fan but we have become close friends

:11:09.:11:13.

making this now! All is forgiven. The level of racism. I was there and

:11:14.:11:20.

I saw it watching my team but I had almost forgotten. Bob just reminded

:11:21.:11:24.

me just how awful it was. Don't use the actual words now, but the abuse,

:11:25.:11:29.

you could hear every word. Yes, because the abuse was very bad. It

:11:30.:11:35.

is great to know the authorities are doing more to make sure they take it

:11:36.:11:40.

off the terraces, because many of us black players felt that we were left

:11:41.:11:44.

alone and the authorities, whether they were the police, the FA or

:11:45.:11:50.

whoever, they did not do much to help. And understandably, watching

:11:51.:11:54.

the documentary, you can see that you still harbour a lot of anger, it

:11:55.:11:59.

comes out. How has it affected your memories of that time when you were

:12:00.:12:05.

playing? It is only when I start to talk about incidents it happened.

:12:06.:12:09.

Because, as I said on the film, those were the best days of my life.

:12:10.:12:15.

And when I look back at it, I look back with great pleasure, but when I

:12:16.:12:19.

look back at some of the incidents that took place, it does really

:12:20.:12:26.

frustrates me and it does bring about an anger in me. It's sort of

:12:27.:12:32.

Sully is the memory of it. You have that beautiful memory and then you

:12:33.:12:37.

hear that unpleasant chant. Adrian, what was your perspective on the

:12:38.:12:41.

players' perspective of what that game meant at the time? I was bit

:12:42.:12:48.

nervous going into it. I felt it was progressive but I am a middle-class

:12:49.:12:53.

white boy. It is not my core. But speaking to Bob and his team-mates

:12:54.:12:59.

that day, you felt proud and you had a dressing room all of your own,

:13:00.:13:03.

because you had always been a minority in the past and all of you

:13:04.:13:06.

said how great it was to have that dressing room. Was. It was good to

:13:07.:13:12.

have so many of us together, so we could come out because with

:13:13.:13:17.

footballers, everybody thinks, I am the best, and we wanted to go out

:13:18.:13:22.

there and show that we were good footballers and we wanted to show

:13:23.:13:26.

the Albion at the time were a very good team and we could match them

:13:27.:13:31.

and we could give a show to a lot of people who wouldn't come to the

:13:32.:13:36.

games normally. And what the families went through. That is what

:13:37.:13:41.

we were going to say. Joy, you were the one dealing with it at home. You

:13:42.:13:46.

would go to the games but you also knew Bob as the man he was at home.

:13:47.:13:53.

How was that? I can say was quite difficult at the time, especially

:13:54.:13:57.

when it was away matches. You would be watching to see what the score

:13:58.:14:01.

would be and if it was a losing score, then you tend to know what

:14:02.:14:04.

frame of mind he would be in. You would do your best at home to ensure

:14:05.:14:08.

that everything was as smooth as it could be when he came home, that his

:14:09.:14:14.

suit would be ready when he came home. -- his soup would be ready. On

:14:15.:14:24.

the actual terraces, you talk about this on the film, their families

:14:25.:14:28.

could not go to the game because they could not hear what was echoing

:14:29.:14:34.

around. How did you cope with it? When I heard it, I just had to hold

:14:35.:14:38.

it down as best I could. Of course it hurt. You could scan around the

:14:39.:14:43.

ground and the players' wives who were sitting around you would say,

:14:44.:14:48.

just hold it together, because you would want to say something but it

:14:49.:14:52.

was not the right arena. There were children around you. She even got

:14:53.:14:59.

chased once. Chased across the pitch at Notts County, a very unpleasant

:15:00.:15:00.

incident. There is one touching moment in the

:15:01.:15:11.

film when you have been sent a letter after you have been sent off

:15:12.:15:13.

at Arsenal. Here it is. I would just like to tell in all of

:15:14.:15:24.

those at the match shared the opinions of the minority who would

:15:25.:15:29.

giving you stick. Take no notice of any crowds and answer their jeers

:15:30.:15:35.

with skill and best wishes. This was from a girl aged 14 and a half. We

:15:36.:15:41.

have got the letter here. Why did you keep it? That one macro stood

:15:42.:15:50.

out more than any others because of the headline. What brought it on to

:15:51.:15:55.

me is that she must have been began child of character. To be able to

:15:56.:16:00.

put pen to paper showed a lot of integrity. Bob got terrible racial

:16:01.:16:11.

abuse that day. But not from the opposing players. Do you ever wonder

:16:12.:16:19.

what happened to this 14 and a half year old girl? I wonder what

:16:20.:16:24.

powerful woman she has become. Wonder no more. She is here. Oh, my

:16:25.:16:31.

word! Incredible! Oh, my God! You kind of heard it but

:16:32.:16:48.

what would you like to say? It is hard. We have just hit you with

:16:49.:16:58.

this. Oh, my God! I guess it thank you is in there somewhere. Without a

:16:59.:17:03.

doubt. I could not believe the young girl could write something like

:17:04.:17:08.

that. 14 and a half, what would do go want to do? It is part of what

:17:09.:17:14.

involved me to get involved in politics. I had been involved in

:17:15.:17:17.

politics all my adult life and am now on the council. Do remember that

:17:18.:17:25.

game? I remember a lot of incidents. I still watch now. I am a

:17:26.:17:30.

Northampton girl and I still watch Arsenal. -- in North London girl. I

:17:31.:17:35.

remember when Paul Davies was sent off. You can see that letter and

:17:36.:17:45.

everything that Adrian, Bob and Joy discussed in the documentary, Whites

:17:46.:17:56.

Versus Blacks. And on BBC One right now a contest

:17:57.:17:58.

in which a bird goes head to head with humans under

:17:59.:18:02.

the eagle-eye of referee Mike Dilger who will be invited to explain

:18:03.:18:04.

himself immediately afterwards. This crazy looking creature is a

:18:05.:18:13.

secretary bird. This video of him attacking a fake snake with a

:18:14.:18:17.

powerful kick has had more than 1 million views online. It is not the

:18:18.:18:22.

striking appearance that has attracted so much attention but the

:18:23.:18:25.

particular hunting technique. Secretary birds roam sub-Saharan

:18:26.:18:31.

Africa. Like other birds of prey that plummet from the skies, this

:18:32.:18:37.

bird relies on powerful legs to deliver a kick that is fast, precise

:18:38.:18:44.

and deadly. The trust in Hampshire is one of the few places in the

:18:45.:18:48.

whole of the UK where captive secretary birds and later on will be

:18:49.:18:55.

pitting humans against birds to see who has the most powerful kick.

:18:56.:19:01.

Inspired by the video, a scientist wanted to conduct an experiment to

:19:02.:19:05.

assess the strikeforce of a secretary bird. I have been

:19:06.:19:10.

fascinated for about 30 years. As a kid I was taken aback by the regal

:19:11.:19:15.

posture. There was a stiff way of walking and infamous way of

:19:16.:19:20.

despatching prey with huge kicks. I think of them like a Ninja bird of

:19:21.:19:30.

prey on stilts. It is hard to measure how hard something is

:19:31.:19:34.

kicking. This is where the Hawk Conservatory comes in. I have spoken

:19:35.:19:42.

to an expert in biomechanics. As a team we could track this question.

:19:43.:19:48.

How do you record this fabulous bird? We have a portable platform

:19:49.:19:54.

inside the enclosure, synced to a laptop computer to record the

:19:55.:20:00.

measurements. How do you persuade the bird to strike the plate to?

:20:01.:20:07.

That is what this is for, the snake. We want to compare the bird's kick

:20:08.:20:11.

to the force a human can generate with a special kick-off. Who better

:20:12.:20:20.

to pit against the kicking powers of the secretary bird down, not me, but

:20:21.:20:27.

two secretaries. Lorraine Flavell and Michelle Smith. Ladies and

:20:28.:20:34.

dental men, it is time for the main event. -- gentle man. Who will be

:20:35.:20:42.

king or queen of the cake? Weighing in at just four kilograms is Maddy,

:20:43.:20:54.

the secretary bird. Power, precision and speed. That strike comes out of

:20:55.:21:01.

nowhere. Maddy's kick is 6.1 times his body weight and is delivered in

:21:02.:21:06.

15 ms, one tenth of the time it takes to blink an eye and enough

:21:07.:21:14.

force to Gil a snake. You can see how lethal Maddy can be. Weighing in

:21:15.:21:17.

at 63 kilos, Michelle. And she lost her shoe in the

:21:18.:21:29.

process. Top marks for enthusiasm. A kick of 5.1 times her body weight.

:21:30.:21:35.

Whether faster and more powerful kick she is still in the league.

:21:36.:21:40.

Last but not least, weighing 61 kilos, Lorraine. The results are in

:21:41.:21:45.

and the senses reveal that the rain's kick, at 5.5 times her body

:21:46.:21:51.

weight, is good but not good enough. -- Lorraine. Her powerful kick is

:21:52.:21:57.

2.5 times faster than a human. The secretary bird is the winner. I love

:21:58.:22:03.

it when humans come second in a wildlife showdown. They might look

:22:04.:22:11.

ungainly but the kick of the secretary bird is highly effective

:22:12.:22:14.

and deadly and accuracy is incredibly well coordinated. Our

:22:15.:22:18.

human secretaries were no match for this elite hunter.

:22:19.:22:21.

Apart from the time when you tried to stick to a wall like Olympic,

:22:22.:22:30.

this is up there. Now we are going to move onto more hunting animals

:22:31.:22:35.

and their techniques. Animal defences. We are starting with a

:22:36.:22:41.

bizarre animal called a hagfish, incredibly primitive. Lives at the

:22:42.:22:45.

bottom of the ocean. Any idea how it protects itself from being eaten?

:22:46.:22:53.

Does it lash out with its tail? I am afraid not. It produces copious

:22:54.:23:02.

amounts of slime. Any predator gets a mouthful of slime. It blocks the

:23:03.:23:09.

Gills and kills fish. It can create a not all the way down the body and

:23:10.:23:14.

then slipping away. The predator ends up with a slimy mouth. Next is

:23:15.:23:26.

a little tiny crab from the Pacific ocean. Any idea how it protects

:23:27.:23:34.

itself? You will never forget this. General sarcastic insults. It's

:23:35.:23:40.

pincers are tiny so it cannot protect itself. It picks up some

:23:41.:23:50.

stinging anenomes and stings them in the mouth. The pom-poms staying. An

:23:51.:24:01.

armoured ground cricket. Any idea? It gets its bat out. It squirts out

:24:02.:24:10.

of its exoskeleton around its eyes, astonishing green blood. The

predator backs off straightaway. Animal defences, there you go. Very

:24:15.:24:22.

good guesses. From that footage to this footage. Many people will be

:24:23.:24:24.

familiar with scenes like this of youngsters needlessly tearing

:24:25.:24:29.

around the streets where you live. in one part of the UK, boy and girl

:24:30.:24:36.

racers are going to Egypt. Over the last decade, Northern

:24:37.:24:48.

Ireland has become embroiled in public outrage by the so-called boy

:24:49.:24:54.

racer culture. An intrepid group of young car enthusiast have turned

:24:55.:24:59.

this on its head by setting up special events to enjoy cars without

:25:00.:25:05.

fear of upsetting the neighbours. Boy racers is not always the case.

:25:06.:25:12.

One of the most popular events is car culture live in Dann Patrick,

:25:13.:25:23.

Northern Ireland. -- Downpatrick. Adam McAllister is one of the

:25:24.:25:28.

founders. He set up the event in 2012 as a place where car owners

:25:29.:25:32.

could come to show off their prized possessions. How many came in the

:25:33.:25:41.

first year? 1500. Second year, 5400. The event is about much more than

:25:42.:25:49.

hanging out and enjoying the gleaming motors. There is serious

:25:50.:25:54.

competition at stake. Crowd owners compete for awards in nine different

:25:55.:25:58.

categories, including best wheels, best engine bay, and the coveted car

:25:59.:26:04.

of the show. It is not just the boys getting in on the action.

:26:05.:26:12.

Hi, sewing. I. This is not standard, is it? Far from standard. A lot of

:26:13.:26:24.

modifications to it. These wheels are magnificent. Those wheels are

:26:25.:26:33.

probably up of ?1000. Do you spend all your spare money on your car?

:26:34.:26:39.

After I have paid my bills, all of my spare cash goes to it. Time to go

:26:40.:26:48.

for a spin. The social scene is a big part of it? Oh, yes. There is

:26:49.:26:55.

always something like a show at the weekend. Going to CCM every other

:26:56.:27:04.

Thursday. That is in the Baptist Church, really good people. I

:27:05.:27:08.

thought car modifiers were the devil. I thought they were as well,

:27:09.:27:15.

apparently. I was not expecting a tatami that a local pastoral hosts a

:27:16.:27:28.

car event at his local church. -- pastor. In any group, some people do

:27:29.:27:36.

stupid things. These are just guys who love cars you can do that

:27:37.:27:40.

responsibly. Part of it is giving them a place to do it safely. Back

:27:41.:27:46.

at the car show, it is judgment time. It is not about how much a car

:27:47.:27:52.

costs but how much effort and graft you have put into it. What are you

:27:53.:28:00.

looking for? It is the level of cleanliness. How much time and

:28:01.:28:03.

effort and the level of detail to present a car in the best possible

:28:04.:28:13.

way. Zoe has done all she can as her school is totted up. 84 out of 100.

:28:14.:28:22.

Will that get you a prize? I have no idea. The big moment has come. It is

:28:23.:28:29.

successful Zoe. She picks up her first ever trophy for runner-up in

:28:30.:28:35.

the best Japanese car category. It is great to win something. Getting

:28:36.:28:40.

recognised for my work to my car. I am really impressed. I have learned

:28:41.:28:44.

something as well, never judge a person by the car they drive. I

:28:45.:28:54.

would never have guessed that about you. The level of cleanliness...
