0:00:04 > 0:00:10Tickle my chin with a stick of rhubarb - The One Show is on. I
0:00:10 > 0:00:16love that Alex Jones - she is a right songbird. Not as pretty as
0:00:16 > 0:00:23you, saunt Sally! I hate this programme. The presenters are
0:00:23 > 0:00:28always dressing up and that Matt Baker is so wooden. Woah! You are
0:00:28 > 0:00:38the one that's made of wood. HOLLOW SOUND That's the last time I'm
0:00:38 > 0:00:43
0:00:43 > 0:00:49Hello. Welcome to The One Show with Matt Baker... And Alex Jones.
0:00:49 > 0:00:55Tonight's guest is the real Aunt Sally, Una Stubbs. APPLAUSE Lovely
0:00:55 > 0:00:59to see you. That was good. Did you like that? I was about to apologise
0:00:59 > 0:01:04for that! We had such a laugh this afternoon doing that. It must have
0:01:04 > 0:01:12been difficult to keep a straight face? It was. Especially with Jon,
0:01:12 > 0:01:19he was fantastic. I miss him a lot. Aunt Sally was horrible to Worzel?
0:01:19 > 0:01:24Yes. It was quite a dark series? Yes. I remember thinking it was
0:01:25 > 0:01:29quite scary. They spent so much money on it. It was filmed by film
0:01:29 > 0:01:35directors and the weather was - we used to call it Worzel Weather - it
0:01:35 > 0:01:40was always nice. We had a lovely time. Was it good fun playing a
0:01:40 > 0:01:45villain? Yes, I like it. You do play a much nicer character in
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Sherlock. We will be talking about that later. With the news Kodak is
0:01:49 > 0:01:53close to bankruptcy, you can't help feeling nostalgic about those
0:01:54 > 0:01:59yellow wallets that you have stuffed with photos. Yes. Kodak
0:01:59 > 0:02:03here in the UK says it is not affected. Our love affair with old-
0:02:03 > 0:02:09fashioned film is coming to an end. John Sergeant has been to meet
0:02:09 > 0:02:14three people whose lives won't ever be the same again. Founded in
0:02:14 > 0:02:20America in 1888 Kodak went on to become the name in photography in
0:02:20 > 0:02:26the 20th Century. Kodak was always in the forefront of technical
0:02:26 > 0:02:32developments. 35mm cameras, film cartridges and they were the first
0:02:32 > 0:02:38to develop a digital camera. One of Kodak's most important factories
0:02:38 > 0:02:46was in Harrow, west of London. It was built in 1891. In its heyday,
0:02:46 > 0:02:53it employed more than 7,000 people. With film sales falling, do Kodak's
0:02:53 > 0:02:59problems mean we are seeing the end of an era? This man worked for
0:02:59 > 0:03:04Kodak for nearly 30 years. His whole life has been dominated by
0:03:04 > 0:03:10his love of photography. This is a really important picture for me. It
0:03:10 > 0:03:15is the very first picture of Mrs Kay. That is terrific. Very unusual
0:03:15 > 0:03:20to take pictures at your own wedding. I had to because I was
0:03:20 > 0:03:25leaving to go to work for Kodak in the States six days later. What do
0:03:25 > 0:03:30you think about the possible demise of Kodak? I am very saddened.
0:03:30 > 0:03:35Digital is wonderful for ease of use but it doesn't have the romance
0:03:35 > 0:03:41and the emotional attachment that some film pictures have. A misty
0:03:41 > 0:03:47lake in January. That is the photograph I would have taken with
0:03:47 > 0:03:52my first camera. People had to go to shops like these to have their
0:03:52 > 0:03:59films developed. This man has run this family-owned business for 30
0:03:59 > 0:04:04years. He describes the time when film was king. From what we used to
0:04:04 > 0:04:09experience on a Monday morning, the am of film - we would probably pick
0:04:09 > 0:04:13up over 120 films. We hardly get any films these days. We are
0:04:13 > 0:04:16averaging between four to six a week. The real skill was in
0:04:16 > 0:04:22handling these negatives? Absolutely. With analogue machinery,
0:04:22 > 0:04:28you had to be a skilled operator to read a negative. You had to be an
0:04:28 > 0:04:33artist? Absolutely. Yes. Very much so. Now it is more like being a
0:04:34 > 0:04:38technician? Pressing buttons! what do you feel about the
0:04:38 > 0:04:41company's problems? Concerned, obviously. I am led to believe that
0:04:41 > 0:04:47Kodak UK are going from strength to strength. We have all the
0:04:47 > 0:04:53confidence in Kodak UK. Terry O'Neill is one of Britain's top
0:04:53 > 0:04:58professional photographers. His range of subjects have been amazing
0:04:58 > 0:05:04- from Mick Jagger to the Queen. can't tell you what makes a good
0:05:04 > 0:05:10picture until I see the picture. I can see this shot of Bardot - that
0:05:10 > 0:05:15was the last frame on a roll of 35 and the wind blew and I hit it.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19you imagine a time when you simply say, "I'm not going to bother with
0:05:19 > 0:05:25film any more"? Me? I will never say that. People of course don't
0:05:25 > 0:05:28keep photographs like they used to? Digital pictures, unless you are so
0:05:28 > 0:05:35disciplined, in 30 or 40 years, you may have lost those. If you have
0:05:35 > 0:05:40got a print, the print is virtually forever. Yes. The joys of film can
0:05:40 > 0:05:46easily be exaggerated, but I would like to see one old habit revived -
0:05:46 > 0:05:52we used to put all our Best Pictures into an album. It was a
0:05:52 > 0:05:57great storehouse of memories. Indeed. Worzel Gummidge was shot on
0:05:57 > 0:06:02film and as technology moves on, that film was shot on that memory
0:06:02 > 0:06:08card. Incredible. We are talking about those wonderful Kodak moments.
0:06:08 > 0:06:18I have a beautiful one here. This is a six-year-old Alex Jones trying
0:06:18 > 0:06:18
0:06:18 > 0:06:24on her first-ever tutu. I can raise you, Baker! Hang on. Who is this
0:06:24 > 0:06:30Incredible Hulk? LAUGHTER This is a four-year-old Matt. Nice make-up!
0:06:30 > 0:06:36At his village fete. That's it. have calmed down a bit since then!
0:06:36 > 0:06:41We are asking you to send us your favourite pictures, captured on
0:06:41 > 0:06:49film. We will show as many as we can later on. We have this
0:06:49 > 0:06:57beautiful one of you, Una. Where is it? There it is. That is a lovely
0:06:57 > 0:07:01picture. Let's move on. In the '60s? Yes. I knew that they were in
0:07:01 > 0:07:06trouble with film because I don't have a digital camera. The last
0:07:06 > 0:07:11time I had to get some film, I had to go all over London to find
0:07:11 > 0:07:17somewhere that was selling it. Everybody skips through pictures on
0:07:17 > 0:07:23computers these days. I stick them in an album! Sherlock. You have had
0:07:23 > 0:07:29a career spanning 50 years. This is your latest role, playing Mrs
0:07:29 > 0:07:36Hudson, the landlady to Sherlock and Watson. You did enjoy looking
0:07:36 > 0:07:41after the boys? Yes. They really treat me sweetly, disgusting
0:07:41 > 0:07:46sometimes! LAUGHTER They really tease me but they are a fantastic
0:07:46 > 0:07:53gang. Andrew, Mark, what a crew. Interestingly, you knew Benedict
0:07:53 > 0:07:58when he was a little boy? Yes. I worked with his mother who used to
0:07:58 > 0:08:02do masses of films years ago and we worked together. Then we lived near
0:08:02 > 0:08:07each other so I would be walking up the High Street with my pram and
0:08:07 > 0:08:12she had this boy with her. This little boy, Benedict, would be
0:08:12 > 0:08:16standing there bored, waiting for us to finish. Wow. He is a great
0:08:16 > 0:08:23boy. I am so thrilled for the success they are having. Clearly,
0:08:23 > 0:08:26the boys did have a lot of respect for you, as we will see here.
0:08:26 > 0:08:36disgrace sending your little brother into danger like that.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40
0:08:40 > 0:08:44Family is all we have in the end. Shut up! Apologies. Thank you.
0:08:44 > 0:08:51Though do in fact shut up! Brilliant. Wonderful. Interestingly,
0:08:51 > 0:08:57your career started as a dancer? Yes. In the chorus when I was 16 at
0:08:57 > 0:09:01the Palladium. And I was a dancer for years on television, a
0:09:01 > 0:09:09programme called Cool For Cats. When did that transition come from
0:09:09 > 0:09:12dancing to acting? How? They did films here, Summer Holiday, A
0:09:12 > 0:09:17Wonderful Life. Then I auditioned to be in the chorus and then they
0:09:17 > 0:09:22gave me a screen test and that is how that came about and then Til
0:09:22 > 0:09:27Death Do Us Part after that. I don't know how they thought I could
0:09:27 > 0:09:32act after Summer Holiday. You speak about Til Death Do Us Part, Summer
0:09:32 > 0:09:38Holiday, Worzel Gummidge. Which is your proudest piece of work?
0:09:38 > 0:09:48enjoying Sherlock and I am proud to be involved in the thing. Of course.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49
0:09:49 > 0:09:53I did a play called Don Carlos - I was proud. Yes. You would clean up
0:09:53 > 0:09:59on Strictly! I'm a trained dancer. I am too old now. We will have a go
0:09:59 > 0:10:06before you leave. He is still obsessed! It would be lovely.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10loved you two in it! Sherlock is available on DVD. Even with recent
0:10:10 > 0:10:15price drops in the last 12 months, energy prices have risen by a
0:10:15 > 0:10:25staggering 21% since the start of last winter. Fear not, Lucy Siegle
0:10:25 > 0:10:25
0:10:25 > 0:10:29has some cash-saving solutions. A lot of you may have been
0:10:29 > 0:10:33rejoicing after recent 5% falls in the cost of gas or electricity.
0:10:33 > 0:10:39Let's have a reality check. The same energy companies hiked their
0:10:39 > 0:10:44prices by as much as 27% in the previous year. A recent survey
0:10:44 > 0:10:48showed just how concerned those bill-payers now are. 43% said they
0:10:48 > 0:10:52were worried they wouldn't be able to afford their next Energy Bill.
0:10:52 > 0:10:59Two-thirds of those customers said that at some point this winter they
0:10:59 > 0:11:04would be turning off their heating altogether to save money. Fuel
0:11:04 > 0:11:07poverty has risen sharply over the last decade. 5.5 million households
0:11:07 > 0:11:11are paying more than a tenth of their income on fuel. But despite
0:11:11 > 0:11:17the size of the problem, just one out of six consumers switch
0:11:17 > 0:11:21suppliers to make savings on their bills last year. So I'm in Cardiff
0:11:21 > 0:11:29to see how we can cut those bills by shopping around for the best
0:11:29 > 0:11:34deal. The One Show is here with Citizens' Advice and their Big
0:11:34 > 0:11:39Energy Week to see how much cash we can save. People will stay with a
0:11:39 > 0:11:45certain company for ten years and think, "I'm safe there. I won't
0:11:45 > 0:11:51save any money." You can save up to 20% by checking for the best deals
0:11:51 > 0:11:55at 13 price comparison sites. This man pays almost �1,400 a year for
0:11:56 > 0:12:00gas and electricity. We have put his details into a price comparison
0:12:00 > 0:12:07site which searches all of the current deals from the UK energy
0:12:08 > 0:12:13companies. Let's hope we can find you a better tariff. Nearly �200.
0:12:14 > 0:12:22That is not to be sneezed at! it bother you signing up or
0:12:22 > 0:12:26switching to one of these lesser- known companies? Not at all. Chris
0:12:26 > 0:12:30Huhne vowed to get tough on energy companies. There are hundreds of
0:12:31 > 0:12:35tariffs on offer. He demanded simpler tariffs and a requirement
0:12:35 > 0:12:40to tell the consumer about the cheapest ones on offer. Big savings
0:12:40 > 0:12:49can be made paying by direct debit, having an online-only account and
0:12:49 > 0:12:59by going dual fuel. Making these simple changes could save this man
0:12:59 > 0:12:59
0:12:59 > 0:13:04a small fortune. �314. That is a lot. What if you still can't afford
0:13:04 > 0:13:09the bills after you have shopped around? Some people even if they
0:13:09 > 0:13:12switch their provider are still going to have real problems paying
0:13:12 > 0:13:15those bills. What is very important that people understand that the
0:13:15 > 0:13:20energy companies have an obligation to speak to people who are
0:13:20 > 0:13:24struggling. They need to work out and speak to them how much they are
0:13:24 > 0:13:29able to pay and the energy companies have to be fair to their
0:13:29 > 0:13:33customers. Whatever you do, don't switch off the heating altogether
0:13:33 > 0:13:36this winter. If your bills are getting on top of you, ask for help.
0:13:37 > 0:13:41As well as making sure you are on the right tariff, poorly-heated
0:13:41 > 0:13:46homes can qualify for grants to pay for boiler repairs and central
0:13:46 > 0:13:50heating. Thanks. The big six energy companies have told us they are
0:13:50 > 0:13:55trying to keep prices down but that global wholesale prices have been
0:13:55 > 0:13:58high. They have responded to the regulator's call for clearer
0:13:58 > 0:14:03information and simpler tariffs. They have schemes in place to help
0:14:03 > 0:14:07people who are struggling with their bills. There we are. That is
0:14:07 > 0:14:13the news. You know we must talk about the final episode of Sherlock.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17At the end, we made a shocking discovery, lots of people out there
0:14:17 > 0:14:22will have their theories. I have looked at the evidence. I think I
0:14:22 > 0:14:26have worked it out. Matt, can you set the scene? Sherlock is on the
0:14:26 > 0:14:30top of the building. He has been told by Moriarty if he doesn't kill
0:14:30 > 0:14:38himself, Una and his other friends will die. We watch him jump. But at
0:14:39 > 0:14:46the end of the show, he appears to have survived. So, Sherlock Jones,
0:14:46 > 0:14:51what happened? It is elementary, my dear Mattson! Sherlock didn't hit
0:14:51 > 0:14:54the ground. Funnily enough, conveniently, there was a laundry
0:14:54 > 0:14:58conveniently, there was a laundry truck parked outside the building.
0:14:58 > 0:15:04He landed in the laundry truck. he has gone off to the laundry,
0:15:04 > 0:15:09whose body is lying on the ground? As I said, this body definitely is
0:15:09 > 0:15:14not Sherlock's. Earlier in the episode, he met Molly Hooper. She
0:15:14 > 0:15:20is a pathologist. She's got access to loads of dead bodies so she got
0:15:20 > 0:15:30a spare one out, put a Sherlock mask on it and chucked him out of
0:15:30 > 0:15:32
0:15:32 > 0:15:36But surely Dr Watt and would know the body was not Sherlock? He did
0:15:36 > 0:15:43not know what day of the wicket was. He was hit by a cyclist on the way
0:15:43 > 0:15:48over, so he knows nothing. And that, my dear Matt-son, is how it worked
0:15:48 > 0:15:53out. A very impressive, considering that at 4 o'clock this afternoon,
0:15:53 > 0:16:01you didn't have a clue what was going on. I am sharp. Do you think
0:16:01 > 0:16:07she has got it? And I have no idea. Was that your idea? It is our
0:16:08 > 0:16:13theories. If you do want to find out for yourself, get the DVD.
0:16:13 > 0:16:20is out now. And the box set. Keep plugging away.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23And now, time to conclude hour week off films based at Tiggywinkles
0:16:23 > 0:16:29Wildlife Hospital. And the detective work is not finished, as
0:16:29 > 0:16:37Mike Dilger response to an emergency call for.
0:16:37 > 0:16:43It is all hands to the bomb, action stations. Someone has been attacked
0:16:43 > 0:16:47by a dog. Hopefully, it is Tiggywinkles to the rescue. This
0:16:47 > 0:16:55team are called out several times a week to rescue deer, either caught
0:16:55 > 0:17:00in fences, hit by cars, or in this case attacked by another animal. We
0:17:00 > 0:17:06think it has been attacked by a dog? De it looks like it. It has
0:17:06 > 0:17:10open wounds on its rump. And it seemed to be in shock. It did not
0:17:10 > 0:17:15look normal. As the deer is hiding, nets are placed in the garden in
0:17:15 > 0:17:22case it is well enough to bolt. Then it is over to a senior nurse
0:17:22 > 0:17:29Sharon Jacobs to lead the rescue attempt. Our job is to heard it
0:17:29 > 0:17:34that way. It is classic pincer movement. We think it is in there.
0:17:34 > 0:17:39Sharon is going to push it down. I am going to Koranic down to the
0:17:39 > 0:17:43garden, where they are waiting with the net. I am going to corral it to
0:17:43 > 0:17:53down to the garden. Sharon was right to head into the thicket, and
0:17:53 > 0:17:56
0:17:56 > 0:18:02it is worse than we feared. What would you like? This is not good.
0:18:02 > 0:18:06It has been really badly attacked. It is soon clear that the deer had
0:18:06 > 0:18:11an existing injury to its leg, which made it more vulnerable to
0:18:12 > 0:18:15the dog attacks. Sadly, Joe the vet is unable to save it. The deer died
0:18:15 > 0:18:23on the way back to the vehicle before Jo Good even administer pain
0:18:23 > 0:18:26relief. It is a sorry way to go. It was really seriously injured. At
0:18:26 > 0:18:30this rescue centre, there is a constant flow of sick and injured
0:18:30 > 0:18:35animals, but once recovered, individuals that are able to be
0:18:35 > 0:18:40released will be. The number one aim is to get them back out into
0:18:40 > 0:18:50the wild where they belong, like this house Martin, whose next stop
0:18:50 > 0:18:50
0:18:50 > 0:18:55will be tropical Africa. It flew right past us. But those that do
0:18:55 > 0:19:00not fully recover can still have a good quality of life and are both
0:19:00 > 0:19:04looked after and provided with a permanent home. This is a new
0:19:04 > 0:19:11edition? Yes, this has only been here about three months. It is
0:19:11 > 0:19:16polecat palace. They are running all over the place. Polecats are
0:19:16 > 0:19:20native to Britain, but were nearly wiped out through persecution, and
0:19:20 > 0:19:25kill for their fur. But since the '50s, numbers have increased. Now
0:19:25 > 0:19:30one of their big threads is traffic. What kind of injuries have they
0:19:30 > 0:19:34come in with? Most of the time, they have been hit by a car. So
0:19:34 > 0:19:40they have eye injuries and trauma to the head. It is an exciting day
0:19:40 > 0:19:44at polecat palace, because we have a new edition of. This young female
0:19:44 > 0:19:50was found by the side of the road a couple of weeks ago. Probably
0:19:50 > 0:19:54another victim of the motor car. She is quite feisty. The head
0:19:54 > 0:19:59injury was severe, which means she will never be 100% fit, so she will
0:19:59 > 0:20:05not be put back into the wild. At present to you the latest addition
0:20:05 > 0:20:08to polecat palace, Patsy. Isn't she gorgeous? It is only in the last
0:20:08 > 0:20:12two years that polecats have started being brought into the
0:20:12 > 0:20:17centre. Although it is never good to see sick animals, it does prove
0:20:17 > 0:20:24that the population is recovering in the wild. There is nothing too
0:20:24 > 0:20:31dramatic there. No. Tomorrow, this little owl called City, rescued
0:20:31 > 0:20:38from a chimney, is released. I love the way she has a constant frown.
0:20:38 > 0:20:42And a fox gets a visit from the dentist.
0:20:42 > 0:20:50If that was not enough animal action, my kids here now with a
0:20:50 > 0:20:56little friend. This is it easy. It is a polecat ferret hybrid. It
0:20:56 > 0:21:00means the father is a polecat. And the mother is a ferret, which is UN
0:21:00 > 0:21:04ancient domesticated polecats. She can't be released into the wild
0:21:04 > 0:21:08because she is too tame and staff at Tiggywinkles don't want her
0:21:08 > 0:21:15breeding with the native podcasts. So she will be a permanent resident.
0:21:16 > 0:21:21She is one of their success stories. She is wriggling all over the place.
0:21:22 > 0:21:27Through persecution, they were found only in mid-Wales. After the
0:21:27 > 0:21:31First World War, persecution drop. They didn't want the pelt. Now they
0:21:31 > 0:21:38are spreading all over the UK. have another minute left on this
0:21:38 > 0:21:40item. Can you keep holding her? More species that are doing well -
0:21:41 > 0:21:45Butterfly Conservation have released a report saying a lot of
0:21:45 > 0:21:53our butterflies are not doing well. But one that is doing well is the,
0:21:53 > 0:22:02butterfly. In the 1970s, this was found no further north than
0:22:02 > 0:22:09Liverpool. That was as a result of climate change. And here we have a
0:22:09 > 0:22:15pool frog, which was extinct in 1999. This species has bitten me
0:22:15 > 0:22:20again! Then it was released back into the UK in 2005 at a secret
0:22:20 > 0:22:24site in Norfolk, and before this polecat goes for my drug dealer, we
0:22:25 > 0:22:34have the European elk. This was -- before the Popat goes for my
0:22:34 > 0:22:40jugular, we have the European elk. It was hunted to extinction, but in
0:22:40 > 0:22:492007, it was found that they were surviving and doing OK in captivity.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53Well done for coping with that! Anyway, it is strange to think it
0:22:53 > 0:22:57now, but until only 12 years ago, many of us pumped a potent poison
0:22:57 > 0:23:01into an atmosphere. Lead in petrol damaged children. Scientists knew
0:23:01 > 0:23:09it, but without the tireless campaigning of one academic, we
0:23:09 > 0:23:15might still be doing it now. Old cars were gas-guzzling, eco
0:23:15 > 0:23:21disasters. But they did not just pollute, they also poisoned. Lead
0:23:21 > 0:23:25added to fuel was toxic, and it affected children worst of all. And
0:23:25 > 0:23:31no one did anything about it until one lone Professor managed to swing
0:23:31 > 0:23:34public opinion. So how did it happen? 90 years ago, as mass car
0:23:34 > 0:23:43production started, American companies were seeking the answer
0:23:43 > 0:23:49to a problem decor knocking. The engines of early cars made a noise
0:23:49 > 0:23:53while running. To work out why this happens, we need to know how an
0:23:53 > 0:23:56engine works. Classic car restorer Dave Matthews and has a cross
0:23:56 > 0:24:00section of an engine so that we can see what is going on. An engine
0:24:00 > 0:24:05that runs sweetly depends on the fuel and air mixture being ignited
0:24:05 > 0:24:10at exactly the right moment. The explosions generating the power
0:24:10 > 0:24:16drive the pistons up and down smoothly. But with early types of
0:24:16 > 0:24:20fuel, the explosions would happen at the wrong time. The fuel in that
0:24:20 > 0:24:23chamber would ignite prematurely, and there would be two forces. The
0:24:23 > 0:24:27force of the explosion would be working against the piston as it
0:24:27 > 0:24:32was trying to come up, and the components then start rattling.
0:24:32 > 0:24:37Which causes the knocking. How does lead help? It reduces from the
0:24:37 > 0:24:41stability of petrol, so you can control the ignition. The man who
0:24:41 > 0:24:45discovered that led made engines run more smoothly was Thomas
0:24:45 > 0:24:51Midgley junior, an engineer at America's General Motors. The
0:24:51 > 0:24:57company immediately started mass- producing Tetra ethyl lead to add
0:24:57 > 0:25:01to petrol around the world. But they did not call it led. This band
0:25:01 > 0:25:05of anti-lock compound have helped the petroleum industry to bring out
0:25:05 > 0:25:10better gasoline. Despite early bad press when workers at lead plants
0:25:10 > 0:25:16started dying, for 50 years, the petrol companies downplayed the
0:25:16 > 0:25:18risks from lead. Executives from British companies involved in the
0:25:18 > 0:25:22manufacturing of the petroleum tried to reassure the public.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27believe that the risks have been grossly exaggerated. The medical
0:25:27 > 0:25:31evidence available is certainly not conclusive. For years, few in
0:25:31 > 0:25:37Britain challenged the oil companies'' word, at least publicly,
0:25:37 > 0:25:39except one lone maverick from Reading University called Doris --
0:25:39 > 0:25:44Derek Bryce Smith will stop it damages the nervous system,
0:25:44 > 0:25:48particularly the brain. Bryce Smith died last year, but Roger Radcliffe
0:25:48 > 0:25:52met him several times in the late 1970s and '80s whilst working as
0:25:52 > 0:25:56one of the country's very first environmental reporters at the
0:25:56 > 0:26:00Yorkshire Post. Derek was the leading academic
0:26:00 > 0:26:05involved in the campaign. He was the man who drew all the scientific
0:26:05 > 0:26:09evidence together. He was a lone voice to begin with, arguing that
0:26:09 > 0:26:13low-level lead pollution was a danger. He was ostracised by a lot
0:26:13 > 0:26:18of people in the scientific community, because he was taking on
0:26:18 > 0:26:22the might of the oil industry and the motor industry. A lot of the
0:26:22 > 0:26:27scientific community did not want to side with him. He put his neck
0:26:27 > 0:26:30on the block by taking the line he did. But he did not keep quiet, and
0:26:30 > 0:26:38eventually his dissenting voice was joined by other scientists and
0:26:38 > 0:26:42campaigners. Lead free petrol now! Of campaign groups like Clear
0:26:42 > 0:26:46pointed out that the effects of lead were cumulative. The more lead
0:26:46 > 0:26:52that children breathed in, the worse its effects became. The
0:26:52 > 0:26:56scientists agreed. The science was very powerful. The rate of evidence
0:26:56 > 0:27:00now indicated that lead was affecting children's intelligence.
0:27:00 > 0:27:06The higher the level of lead, the worse the children were. They had
0:27:06 > 0:27:08lower IQ and attention deficits. They were unable to follow simple
0:27:08 > 0:27:13instructions and had even more difficulty with complicated
0:27:13 > 0:27:18instructions. They tended to daydream. Lead in petrol was
0:27:18 > 0:27:22finally banned altogether on the first January, 2000. Nowadays, only
0:27:22 > 0:27:26six countries in the world sell leaded petrol. Professor Bryce
0:27:26 > 0:27:32Smith died knowing that his determination and doggedness
0:27:32 > 0:27:37changed the world, and protected millions of children.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40A true unsung hero. Before we go, in reference to last night's report
0:27:40 > 0:27:43on street lights, we need to make it clear that it was
0:27:43 > 0:27:47Nottinghamshire county council which took the decision to turn off
0:27:47 > 0:27:51the light overnight in Bingham, and not Bingham town council, which
0:27:51 > 0:27:54supports the residents in raising their concerns about it. Sorry for
0:27:54 > 0:28:03the confusion. Thank you for the Kodak moments you have been sending
0:28:03 > 0:28:12him. This is Kelly Roach, with her cousin, Neil. As Sally in Worzel
0:28:12 > 0:28:17Gummidge! De this is a photo of Zoe's parents with their first car.
0:28:17 > 0:28:23Chantelle has sent this in. It is a photo of her dad, which she
0:28:24 > 0:28:28absolutely loves. This is a great Kodak picture. It is Lizzie on a
0:28:28 > 0:28:35family holiday in Wales in 1990. And how about James, with his
0:28:36 > 0:28:40wonderful guide dog? Una, thank you for coming. Sherlock
