Hello and welcome to The One Show with alenges Jones and Matt Baker.

:00:21.:00:27.

We are joined by one of the biggest girl bands this kouptsry has

:00:27.:00:32.

produced. Thai massive the world over and even charmed old blue eyes

:00:32.:00:42.
:00:42.:00:45.

thims. We're all in the mood for the Nolans! Welcome to The One Show.

:00:45.:00:49.

You have all arrived safe, but you're worried about getting home.

:00:49.:00:54.

Suspect it terrible about the floods? Shocking and some it is the

:00:54.:00:59.

second time in a little time if you know what I mean. If you haven't

:00:59.:01:04.

been through it yourself, I can't imagine. We're going back up north

:01:04.:01:10.

after the show. We're worried about the trains. The trains have been

:01:10.:01:18.

affected. But we will check. can sleep on the sofa! If you have

:01:18.:01:23.

been affected by the floods, please e-mail us some pictures and we will

:01:23.:01:29.

show the rest of Britain how bad it has been. Now 75,000 people in the

:01:29.:01:33.

UK have been given flood warnings by the Environment Agency. Louise

:01:33.:01:42.

Minchin is in St Helens. It It has been a difficult day through large

:01:43.:01:49.

parts of the UK. I want to show you pictures from the worst affected

:01:49.:01:55.

areas. From the north-east in Durham where the River Wear burst

:01:55.:02:05.
:02:05.:02:08.

its banks. The River Tees there rose ten foot above its normal Lels.

:02:08.:02:15.

And in Morpeth, homes there evacuated, 37 residents rescued by

:02:15.:02:22.

the fire service, because of flooding on the River Wansbeck and

:02:22.:02:28.

90 residents from the Dawson Plate centre. The Environment Agency are

:02:28.:02:34.

concerned about you can see where I am here in St Helens the problem,

:02:34.:02:38.

this water should be four foot below where it is now. And

:02:38.:02:43.

residents here had to leave their homes, 12 different households

:02:43.:02:46.

affected. Some had to be taken from their homes in the middle of the

:02:47.:02:50.

night by firefighters in dinghies. I have been to see the clear up

:02:50.:02:56.

opgs and to see where it all began. -- operation. Last night for the

:02:56.:03:05.

first time in 12 years sh this canal burst its banks. The water

:03:05.:03:11.

has now receded but it is still raining and they have been busy and

:03:11.:03:18.

this time they're redy. Richard from the council has been leading

:03:18.:03:21.

the operation. Last night it just burst its banks. Yes straight down

:03:21.:03:27.

the road and into the houses. about tonight. There is concern it

:03:27.:03:31.

could app happen again. We have six flood alerts in the area. We have

:03:32.:03:35.

contractors standing by with a thousand sandbags. So hopefully we

:03:35.:03:41.

will be OK. Let's hope so, because families don't fancy being struck

:03:42.:03:50.

twice. It started to flood, me mum rang around 20 to 4 and said there

:03:50.:03:56.

is bit on the front and the grid is rising. It was like a lake. So it

:03:56.:04:00.

came through here? Yes through living room and the kitchen and it

:04:00.:04:05.

came to there. They say it may happen again tonight. What will you

:04:05.:04:13.

do? We have moved as much stuff as has not been damaged. The homework

:04:13.:04:20.

as well? The homework is upstairs. I bet you're delighted about that?

:04:20.:04:27.

Good luck tonight. Thank you. of luck to Debbie and everyone else.

:04:27.:04:30.

The Environment Agency were hoping to be here, but because of the

:04:30.:04:36.

conditions they're too busy. They have given me an jub date, saying

:04:36.:04:40.

their web-site shows 230 flood warnings in England. The north-east

:04:40.:04:48.

the most at risk. That includes the River Tees, the river Swale and the

:04:48.:04:55.

the river Ouse could threaten flooding tonight. They say look at

:04:55.:04:59.

their web-site and also of course stay in touch with local radio

:04:59.:05:04.

stations. Here I have been watching that water in the last hour and it

:05:04.:05:12.

has risen about another four inches sm I think the message for people

:05:12.:05:17.

here is to heed the warnings and stay safe. You just wish good luck

:05:18.:05:22.

to people. It is terrible in dur lamb where you are from. My mum

:05:22.:05:29.

said on the forecast the cloud above dur lamb is six miles deep. -

:05:29.:05:34.

- Durham. I love Durham as well. There was no warning. That is the

:05:34.:05:40.

worst place. That is the thing. Despite the best efforts of the

:05:40.:05:45.

forecasters, extreme weather seems to catch us off guard. We look at

:05:46.:05:49.

how scientists hope to change this. This summer has been one of the

:05:49.:05:53.

wettest on record. You would think that few people would want any more

:05:53.:05:57.

rain to fall. But a group of scientists are hoping for more bad

:05:57.:06:02.

weather, so they can fly this plane into severe weather systems, hoping

:06:02.:06:07.

to find out more about their workings. And I get to go up with

:06:07.:06:13.

them. Right into the eye of the storm! At the front of forecasting

:06:13.:06:23.

in Britain is the Met Office. The observations are fed into a

:06:23.:06:30.

computer in Exeter. There we have a model. It is like a computer game

:06:30.:06:36.

showing what is happening over the globe. As computers get more

:06:36.:06:41.

powerful, the better the predictions come. The four-day

:06:41.:06:46.

forecasts day as are accurate as the one-day forecasts were in the

:06:46.:06:52.

80s. There are a few chunky bits. We want to do better. Particularly

:06:52.:06:59.

severe events, these developments of heavy rain fall that can have a

:06:59.:07:03.

dramatic impact. Predicting these more accurately will allow for

:07:03.:07:10.

better flood warnings and prepare people so lives and money are saved.

:07:10.:07:14.

An important tool for improving the forecasts is what some have dubbed

:07:14.:07:20.

the Rain Plane. This is a flying laboratory which allows scientists

:07:20.:07:23.

to get a better understanding of the weather systems in the skies

:07:23.:07:29.

above us. It may look normal, but it is full of probes on the outside

:07:29.:07:34.

and the inside is full of instruments and computers. By

:07:34.:07:38.

flying this into storms, one thing they will be able to do is compare

:07:38.:07:43.

what was forecast by the computer against what is really happening.

:07:43.:07:48.

If there are any differences, they will work out why and use this to

:07:48.:07:58.

help refine weather models. The skrieptirss -- scientist and I have

:07:58.:08:02.

been on stand by for the perfect storm. It is atrocious. It is

:08:02.:08:06.

teeming down. This is what we have been waiting for. So it is action

:08:06.:08:14.

stations to take off from Cranfield as soon as possible. It takes a

:08:14.:08:20.

special pilot to carry out the tricky and dangerous manoeuvre u

:08:20.:08:26.

manoeuvres required. The flying we do can vary from Va'a low level to

:08:26.:08:33.

high level and whatever threfl scientists require for us. In safe

:08:33.:08:40.

hands we head to the storm front. It is over Northern Ireland. What

:08:40.:08:45.

we are interested in doing is finding out what structures there

:08:45.:08:51.

are, so the temperature structure, the humidity and where the

:08:51.:08:55.

precipitation is. Because Ian is the lead scientist, he sits on the

:08:55.:09:00.

flight deck. The pilots take the plane to the weather system and Ian

:09:00.:09:10.

decides where is the best place to be get the data. We're flying at

:09:10.:09:16.

11,000 feet, going straight for precipitation band. So we're about

:09:16.:09:20.

to head into the storm. The crew are excited. I'm slightly nervous.

:09:21.:09:30.
:09:31.:09:33.

Because they keep telling me it will be very bumpy. Inside the

:09:33.:09:37.

storm the scientist collect as much information as they can. From probs

:09:37.:09:43.

positioned all over the aircraft. And there is no other way of

:09:43.:09:50.

collecting the data. A series of devices called drop songs are

:09:50.:09:59.

ejected from the plane. Songs gone. As they go down, sensors beam back

:09:59.:10:09.
:10:09.:10:11.

a profile of the atmosphere. After going through storm front several

:10:11.:10:17.

times, the scientists have collected a lot of data. And that

:10:17.:10:22.

will help refine the Met Office weather model, making flood

:10:22.:10:27.

predictions more accurate. It has been a bumpy ride, but I for one am

:10:27.:10:32.

going to be glads to be back on the ground. -- glad to be back on the

:10:32.:10:37.

ground. Hopefully after this bad weather, something good will come

:10:37.:10:45.

from this. You have joined us ladies... At a sad time. You are

:10:45.:10:55.
:10:55.:10:56.

talking about your farewell tour. Everyone's gutted. Why have 0 years

:10:56.:11:03.

have you decided it is time to say goodbye. After our reunion tour, we

:11:03.:11:08.

had such a good time and we just thought that before we get too old

:11:09.:11:14.

and wait 15 years to co-a -- do a farewell dour, we would do it. We

:11:14.:11:18.

feel we owe to it a lot of fans who have been with us all the way

:11:18.:11:26.

through and while we're still able to do its. We want to say goodbye

:11:26.:11:32.

properly. With our own hips. how else will you be saying

:11:32.:11:36.

goodbye? It will be an amazing tour. The last one was great and the

:11:36.:11:42.

audience loved it. This will be sad, but it will be full of great songs,

:11:42.:11:45.

a party for everyone. We're hoping in Nottingham in February, where we

:11:45.:11:52.

opened last time. But last time we did two shows this time there is

:11:52.:11:57.

only one. But we wanted to open there, because it was great the

:11:57.:12:02.

last time. And we're finally doing Wembley. We have never done it.

:12:02.:12:08.

Really? Never played Wembley. can finally say on 8th March that

:12:08.:12:15.

is. And this time it will be quite sad for us. We're going to show

:12:15.:12:23.

lots of old photographs and footage. Because it is a farewell tour and

:12:23.:12:32.

you have a monthage. And we start with a lovely shot of you. Look at

:12:32.:12:42.
:12:42.:12:42.

this. Oh! # I only know I'm lonely and that I want you only # I don't

:12:42.:12:52.
:12:52.:12:53.

know why I Lo you, but I do! # Weave got -- we've got the Kem

:12:53.:13:02.

triright, we didn't have to turn on the love light. # Lay that pistol

:13:02.:13:11.

down boy, pistol-packing pop Palais that pistol down. # I feel like

:13:11.:13:19.

dancing # So come on and hold me tight # That was brilliant. There

:13:19.:13:27.

was more oohs and ahs than I have ever heard. Where did you find

:13:27.:13:32.

that? I look like Lenny The Lion. She looks like her little boy Jake,

:13:32.:13:37.

who is 206789 she looks like Jake in a frock. He will be so pleased

:13:38.:13:44.

you said that. It will be sad. You were so popular. You toured with

:13:44.:13:51.

Frank Sinatra. We did in 1975. And what was brilliant apart from that

:13:51.:13:57.

we were fans, he was sent tapes of five British groups and he chose us.

:13:57.:14:02.

And that made it more special. did you hear he had chosen you.

:14:02.:14:09.

phone call, by the way you have got the tour. Next year is our 50th

:14:09.:14:14.

anniversary of being in show business. I know Coleen is only 57.

:14:14.:14:24.
:14:24.:14:27.

But we were established before you We were singing with mum and dad

:14:27.:14:31.

since we were tiny. That's the thing, the line-up has changed

:14:31.:14:35.

quite dramatically, because your brothers were also involved at one

:14:35.:14:39.

point. What impact did it have when it came down to the four of you?

:14:39.:14:44.

How did that changed things in the house? My brothers, they had the

:14:44.:14:48.

opportunity to come with us, we were all going to go as a family to

:14:48.:14:53.

London. But at the time, they were both engaged and madly in love, so

:14:53.:14:58.

they decided not to come. That was their choice. My older brother is

:14:58.:15:02.

very happy and does not regret it, but the younger one perhaps thinks,

:15:02.:15:09.

we should have gone. But they are happy now, so... Have you heard

:15:09.:15:13.

about this craze which is sweeping the nation, where you can go online

:15:13.:15:19.

and we create a picture from the past? No. We did ask due to take a

:15:19.:15:25.

photograph, didn't we? This was the original, the album cover, from

:15:25.:15:35.
:15:35.:15:36.

1980. And this is the Recreation, for 2012. There you go! It's quite

:15:36.:15:43.

good, actually. Well, the Nolans Farewell Tour starts in Nottingham

:15:43.:15:47.

in February, and goes right around the country, before finishing in

:15:47.:15:55.

Liverpool. To help fans through this very difficult time, Phil is

:15:55.:15:58.

offering his services, and he will be manning the "Nolan crisis

:15:58.:16:08.
:16:08.:16:08.

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 96 seconds

:16:08.:17:44.

His worbgs of art can be found throughout London. Ben special si

:17:44.:17:47.

ty is painting personal requests for people who approach him while

:17:47.:17:55.

he is working on the street. This is for a family from Boston and it

:17:55.:18:01.

was the mother came up and wanted a picture for her daughter. There is

:18:01.:18:06.

a lovely one there. That is for some school kids. Ben has been

:18:06.:18:12.

painting chewing gum pictures since 2004 and has completed thousands

:18:12.:18:17.

upon thousands of them. He records thes he gets in a book. Today, he

:18:17.:18:25.

is painting one for Lorna from the local library. Do you chew gum

:18:25.:18:30.

yourself? No, I hate the stuff. has been painting around here for

:18:30.:18:35.

so long that the local council and police seem to view him as a unique

:18:35.:18:41.

community artist. Each time you do a different picture, you learn

:18:41.:18:46.

about a different person's life. I love playing with colours and see

:18:46.:18:51.

what they do. Different combinations of colours. The

:18:51.:18:57.

picture's sorted. So all I have to do is, the last part of the process,

:18:57.:19:04.

which is to laquer the picture and that means ill will -- it will last

:19:04.:19:08.

longer. Doo you worry you're encouraging people to spit out gum?

:19:08.:19:13.

No, I'm work with it and changing it and making it more positive N a

:19:13.:19:17.

way I'm making people think. Everything that people do,

:19:17.:19:22.

everything that each person does has an effect. So it eabout people

:19:22.:19:27.

taking responsibility. -- it is about people taking responsibility.

:19:27.:19:32.

Now Ben has finished the painting, what does Lorna who, requested it,

:19:32.:19:38.

think. It look perfect. The detail's brilliant. Lovely to have

:19:38.:19:45.

it celebrated. It is, yes. I will take some pictures. Thank you.

:19:45.:19:50.

is a shame Ben has so many pieces of gum to choose from. The streets

:19:50.:19:58.

would be a lot nicer if people just put it in the Ben. Yes. Total

:19:58.:20:03.

agreement there. Pick it up and put nit bin, never mind paint pg it.

:20:03.:20:09.

Well you may change your mind, Phil is here. I have a gift from Ben the

:20:09.:20:15.

artist. Some art work for you. at the detail on it. Blackpool

:20:15.:20:20.

Tower and a shamrock. I think that is juicy fruit that flavour.

:20:20.:20:26.

could have warned me. I feel terrible. That would look lovely in

:20:26.:20:35.

my lounge. That is very clever. saw Ben there, but street art is

:20:36.:20:40.

not a new concept? No Walter Kershaw painted the side of

:20:40.:20:44.

buildings in the 70s. There is a picture of it there, beautiful

:20:44.:20:51.

flowers there and also urinals, anything he could get his hands on.

:20:51.:20:56.

So brighten his neighbourhood up. There is the urinal. You wouldn't

:20:56.:21:00.

mind spending a penny there. Brighten your day up. The only

:21:00.:21:05.

trouble with it, it was usually on the side of slum houses. So they

:21:05.:21:14.

got knocked down. That was a shame. Now word on Morecambe fish. Yes.

:21:14.:21:19.

There is a big blue hoarding. Every night someone comes and paints

:21:19.:21:24.

schools of fish on it. But it is a mystery, because no one knows who

:21:24.:21:28.

the artist is. Now they will be sitting there waiting. The locals

:21:28.:21:33.

are asking to find out who it is. But I think it is nice. It is nice

:21:34.:21:42.

not to know. It brightens the praise -- place up. And Mr Catch-22

:21:42.:21:47.

is with us. And look what he has done. That is for you girls. A

:21:47.:21:54.

tribute to the Nolans. Done with spray paint. Oh I love you. I want

:21:54.:21:59.

that. You look better on your painting. That will be in the

:21:59.:22:03.

Blackpool tourist information centre. We're in Blackpool as well

:22:03.:22:11.

at the opera house. There you go. local lad as well from Blackpool.

:22:11.:22:18.

Are you marryed? I'm the single one. I'm the available one. We will have

:22:18.:22:24.

to do a few copies. And thank you Phil, nice to see you as always.

:22:24.:22:31.

Now not everyone got a grow up as part of a big family. We met one

:22:31.:22:37.

group of abandoned children who had to look elsewhere for their sense

:22:37.:22:43.

of home. I'm nobody's child # I'm nobody's child. This orphanage was

:22:43.:22:50.

one of the last institution of its kind in Britain. It started in 1875

:22:50.:22:57.

when a small cottage in Aberlour in Scotland opened its doors to four

:22:57.:23:02.

motherless children. By 1928 it had some 500 children. Many of whom

:23:02.:23:09.

were not actually orphans, but simply poor frurbgs broken homes or

:23:09.:23:16.

of single parent family. And their time would shape them for the rest

:23:16.:23:23.

of their lives. This year is the by Sen tenry of the village and it is

:23:23.:23:28.

holding a reunion for some of the old boys and girls from the

:23:28.:23:33.

orphanage. One who has travelled furtherest to come is professor

:23:33.:23:39.

David devine who, lives in can dafplt he lived there -- in can

:23:39.:23:44.

dafplt he lived there from 18 months to 11. My mother's family

:23:44.:23:47.

were horrified on the fact that there was a black child in the

:23:48.:23:52.

community and that they're daughter had produced this black child. Part

:23:52.:23:58.

of the functioning of the orphanage was to rescue the children from

:23:58.:24:04.

often mall treatment, take them into a country setting and

:24:04.:24:09.

basically rebuild the children and prepare them for adulthood. Now,

:24:10.:24:16.

people say, God this is dick yensian. But the reality is what

:24:16.:24:22.

life did we as children have before they orphanage? The orphanage is

:24:22.:24:26.

salvation for us. One of the key elements of the structure was that

:24:26.:24:31.

each child was allocated a house mother or father. For David, this

:24:31.:24:38.

was aunty Phyllis. I recognise the back of that head! Hello. Nice to

:24:38.:24:46.

see you again. Lovely to see you. David talks about you devoting so

:24:46.:24:50.

much time and you treated each child as your own. I hope I did. I

:24:50.:24:56.

don't think I ever sort of chose one in particular. Maybe one sticks

:24:56.:25:01.

out in my mind more than others. We had a story at bedtime. I remember.

:25:01.:25:04.

And it was going around all the beds and tucking them in and

:25:04.:25:09.

kissing them good night. She gave us the strength to believe that we

:25:09.:25:14.

were OK and we were loved and that we were worthy of love. Because

:25:14.:25:21.

most of us had been dumped, ditched, and we had no one. All we had were

:25:21.:25:27.

care staff like aunty Phyllis and I adore this woman. You will have me

:25:27.:25:33.

in tears! Ron was taken into the orphanage at one-year-old and

:25:33.:25:38.

stayed there until he was 14. Partly because the orphanage kept

:25:38.:25:42.

boys and girls segregated, he was seven before he realised that other

:25:42.:25:47.

members of his family were in there with him. My pal said, you see that

:25:47.:25:52.

girl, there that is your sister. That is how you found out? Yes I

:25:52.:25:57.

was taken aback. As a child, I never thought much of it. This was

:25:57.:26:01.

my first introduction of being introduced to my brothers and

:26:01.:26:05.

sisters. It is only since I left that I got to know them. Our

:26:05.:26:08.
