Hello and welcome to the One Show with Matt Baker And Alex Jones. | :00:17. | :00:21. | |
Tonight, let's bring the country together on some things that we | :00:22. | :00:26. | |
think we can all agree on. For example, isn't it impossible not to | :00:27. | :00:29. | |
tap your feet when you hear this tune? | :00:30. | :00:36. | |
# Dance, boogie wonder land... # It's happening already. This was the | :00:37. | :00:41. | |
sound of one of the greatest funk and disco groups of all-time, Earth | :00:42. | :00:46. | |
Wind Fire, two of whom are with us here tonight, Verdine White and | :00:47. | :00:50. | |
Phillip Bailey. We are looking forward to chatting to them later. | :00:51. | :00:55. | |
From funky to furry. Nice. We are sure no-one can dispute that dogs | :00:56. | :01:00. | |
have enriched our lives for thousands of years. Kate Humble is | :01:01. | :01:05. | |
here to tell us how they became man's best friend with | :01:06. | :01:10. | |
ex-manufacture marine Jon and his assistance dog Jester. With all the | :01:11. | :01:14. | |
disco music, he's as calm as you can like. Surely, no-one can argue that | :01:15. | :01:18. | |
our guest tonight hasn't got one of the best jobs in cinema. He standard | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
in one some of the biggest films of recent times and describes himself | :01:25. | :01:37. | |
as - zombie killer, Supercop, alien buster, Starship engineer Diesel | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
Weasel and one time owner of the Millennium Falcon. Welcome back, | :01:43. | :01:49. | |
sir. Nice to see you. We are saying taking a seat. We set this up | :01:50. | :01:53. | |
especially for you, Simon. Thank you. This is not as weird as it | :01:54. | :02:00. | |
sounds or looks, is it? This is a chair which I, oh, goodness... This | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
is a chair, the model of a chair which I have on set with me call, | :02:07. | :02:14. | |
Jeff. Jeff the Chair. I did a movie in 2008 with Jeff Bridges he | :02:15. | :02:17. | |
instilled in me the greatest piece of wisdom I have been given - feel | :02:18. | :02:26. | |
come fob on set. I have Australian Jeff, Canadian kef Jeff, African | :02:27. | :02:31. | |
Jeff. My own Jeff. Now I have the One Show K Jeff. I'm jealous. I stay | :02:32. | :02:37. | |
on set much I don't go back to trailers. You can lose your focus. | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
Stay on set, feel comfortable. I will play Candy Crush. It's the best | :02:43. | :02:47. | |
way to spend time on a film set. You have passed it on to a few other | :02:48. | :02:51. | |
actors. The majority of Star Trek have them, is that right The first | :02:52. | :02:57. | |
day on set I picked up Canadian Jeff. I retrieved - I worked on a | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
film there previously. Brought it to set first day. Chris Pine said - why | :03:03. | :03:10. | |
have you got that? I said, I have it everywhere I go. By the following | :03:11. | :03:14. | |
Tuesday we all had them. The entire cast of Star Trek would just lounge, | :03:15. | :03:25. | |
nap, chat. They would play the banjo. I want to sit there. These | :03:26. | :03:31. | |
are designed to keep us awake, there is nothing comfortable about this. | :03:32. | :03:37. | |
It's called the zero gravity garden chair. Other chairs are available. | :03:38. | :03:42. | |
You can feel so relaxed in this. I bought one, I actually... This | :03:43. | :03:46. | |
sounds, I'm going to sound like a bad person I bought one for Tom | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
Cruise on Mission Impossible, I've never seen the man sit down in 10 | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
years of working with him. Did he sit? He fell asleep. I felt like I | :03:55. | :04:01. | |
felled a giant. Like David in Goliath. I looked into his tent on | :04:02. | :04:07. | |
set, we have rest areas. He was snoring. I have never seen him sit | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
down let alone sleep on a sit. It's like a badge of honour. Like being | :04:15. | :04:20. | |
on It's the shopping channel. ?19.99. We would like to see you in | :04:21. | :04:27. | |
your favourite chair, tatty or tidy, send in your photos and tell us why | :04:28. | :04:35. | |
it's better than any other chair in your house or any other chair you | :04:36. | :04:39. | |
set on. We will talk about your film as well. Tonight, photos of your | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
favourite chair. Brilliant One Show call-out. | :04:45. | :04:48. | |
If you can think back to a time before the referendum - | :04:49. | :04:51. | |
and we know it seems like a long time ago - Alex Riley brought | :04:52. | :04:54. | |
an entire bowling team of ex-pats over from Alicante to take part | :04:55. | :04:57. | |
in an In or Out match against a team from Clacton. | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
But now Brexit is definitely on the cards, he's flown over to see | :05:01. | :05:04. | |
them again and find out how Brits abroad are reacting to the result. | :05:05. | :06:23. | |
Five members are actively selling Spanish citizenship. Ten of them | :06:24. | :06:31. | |
believe concerns about finances and health care could force them to | :06:32. | :06:36. | |
return to the UK. And two of them are making plans to return already. | :06:37. | :06:40. | |
The rest of it spent half of the year in Britain anyway. Almost all | :06:41. | :06:45. | |
of them are wary -- worried but they vary. For this group it is about | :06:46. | :06:50. | |
pensions. The way the pound is dropping at the moment we are losing | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
money each month. And we do not know how. That is the health care deal | :06:55. | :07:00. | |
with Spain is the biggest problem for these expats. The Health Service | :07:01. | :07:05. | |
in Spain is second to none. And the couple fear for their impact on the | :07:06. | :07:10. | |
right to remain here. Would you consider a Spanish passport? If need | :07:11. | :07:16. | |
be, yes. What are you worried will happen to your pensions as we get | :07:17. | :07:19. | |
closer to Brexit? It will drop down and down. We have money to live on? | :07:20. | :07:26. | |
Glenn is being treated for cancer and his drugs bill is around 200 | :07:27. | :07:31. | |
euros every day. If the current arrangement broke down and you have | :07:32. | :07:36. | |
to spend more like the real cost of the drugs you are on, how would that | :07:37. | :07:40. | |
affect your life? I would be back in England the next day. That is | :07:41. | :07:46. | |
concerning for his wife. I would be worried because they do not think he | :07:47. | :07:49. | |
would get the same care. As he does here. | :07:50. | :07:52. | |
It scarce me to death I would have to go back to England and queue up | :07:53. | :07:58. | |
with thousands of other people just to get an appointment. If the | :07:59. | :08:02. | |
current agreement lapsed and you had to pay for healthcare here in Spain, | :08:03. | :08:07. | |
what would you have to do? If our residency is approved we can join | :08:08. | :08:14. | |
the Spanish healthcare system by paying about 200 euros a month. That | :08:15. | :08:17. | |
would be for each of us coming out of our income. For others too | :08:18. | :08:23. | |
applying to become a Spanish citizen is now on the cards. As I've lived | :08:24. | :08:27. | |
in Spain for a considerable time I will have the opportunity to apply | :08:28. | :08:32. | |
for Spanish nationality. That might just be easier than dealing with the | :08:33. | :08:36. | |
consequences of being British in Spain? A lot better. At least, if I | :08:37. | :08:40. | |
take up Spanish nationality, I will still be within Europe, which is | :08:41. | :08:45. | |
what I want to be. I will have all the full rights of a Spanish | :08:46. | :08:53. | |
national. Watching events unfold from sunny Spain has an air of | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
unreality. Club member, Harry Dobson, has been following the | :08:58. | :09:03. | |
political aftershocks. I'm sure you are wondering how it will turn out? | :09:04. | :09:08. | |
That is absolutely right. In some way it will affect us. To what | :09:09. | :09:11. | |
extent, we don't know. Even the politicians didn't know. No. But, my | :09:12. | :09:16. | |
theory is - it's done. Yeah. Whether we like it or not, it's done. | :09:17. | :09:23. | |
Having opted for retire am in the sun there is now a big black cloud | :09:24. | :09:28. | |
hanging over these expats. For them the future is a bit like the British | :09:29. | :09:35. | |
weather - have hard to predict. The sun had done in in Alicante, look. | :09:36. | :09:42. | |
Chris mason is here, BBC political correspondent, busiest man in the | :09:43. | :09:45. | |
BBC. Looking for sleep at some stage. Are the concerns of the | :09:46. | :09:50. | |
expats justified? They are. What happened in the last couple of days | :09:51. | :09:53. | |
a huge brick has been thrown into the political pond. It is causing | :09:54. | :09:58. | |
waves washing away the previous assumptions. There is a lot of | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
questions. I'm kind of paid to dream up answers. Half the time when I try | :10:03. | :10:07. | |
to come to an answer I end up asking more questions. It's understandable | :10:08. | :10:10. | |
that expats and lots of other people will ask questions and have | :10:11. | :10:14. | |
concerns. It's also entirely possible that some of their concerns | :10:15. | :10:19. | |
about healthcare agreements could be struck between the UK and Spain | :10:20. | :10:23. | |
#57bd other countries outside of the EU. What is the Spanish Prime | :10:24. | :10:27. | |
Minister saying, he says things are OK for now. We are in the EU until | :10:28. | :10:31. | |
we are not. We are still in and will be for another couple of years. But, | :10:32. | :10:35. | |
to pick up on one of the contributors points, beyond that we | :10:36. | :10:38. | |
haven't really got a Scooby do. I don't know what the Spanish is for | :10:39. | :10:43. | |
that, that's where we are. So many unanswered questions. What do you | :10:44. | :10:47. | |
make of the reception David Cameron received at the EU Summit It's the | :10:48. | :10:52. | |
last one he will go to. We see these summits on the news and faceless | :10:53. | :10:56. | |
politicians. They are human beings. They are getting together in a room, | :10:57. | :10:59. | |
they do so every couple of months, David Cameron went over there. He | :11:00. | :11:02. | |
was desperate to ensure the result went the other way. It didn't. It | :11:03. | :11:06. | |
cost him his job. He won't be going back as Prime Minister again. They | :11:07. | :11:09. | |
were all really disappointed. Disappointed that the UK's left the | :11:10. | :11:14. | |
club. Disappointed that he's lost and he's on his way. Over here, | :11:15. | :11:19. | |
Nigel Farage has been driving the narrative. He has been in all the | :11:20. | :11:23. | |
papers. Very present. What role will he have then if any in the | :11:24. | :11:30. | |
negotiations going forward? He has a a unique approach to British | :11:31. | :11:33. | |
diplomacy, which isn't everyone's taste. In the European Parliament he | :11:34. | :11:39. | |
was pretty forthright yesterday. All political careers end in failure | :11:40. | :11:42. | |
they say, the Prime Minister's has. He didn't want this outcome. He will | :11:43. | :11:46. | |
soon be out of office. Love him or loathe him, Nigel Farage, plenty of | :11:47. | :11:50. | |
people love him and plenty of people loathe him. He succeeded. He set off | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
in politics with a single aim - to get the UK out of the European | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
Union. He succeeded. One of the most influential politicians of his | :12:00. | :12:01. | |
generation having never managed to be elected to the House of He made | :12:02. | :12:04. | |
more Commons. Noise than Boris Johnson has this week. A lot of | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
people are wandering why he has been so quiet? We are used to Boris | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
Johnson, aren't we, falling into rivers, getting stuck on zip wires, | :12:13. | :12:15. | |
all that stuff. There has been very, very little from him. Why? Because | :12:16. | :12:20. | |
he is preparing to launch his big campaign to be our next Prime | :12:21. | :12:23. | |
he is preparing to launch his big Minister in about eight weeks' time. | :12:24. | :12:27. | |
That launch is highly likely to come tomorrow. Do you think he would have | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
thrown his hat in the ring earlier? Not necessarily. He has to, wo out | :12:32. | :12:37. | |
what he will do and see say. In this situation, someone running for a big | :12:38. | :12:44. | |
gig in politics would set out their stall stall. He will face intense | :12:45. | :12:48. | |
crout scrutiny. Lots of people will look to him and say - you led the | :12:49. | :12:53. | |
campaign to take us out of the EU, what will things look like now and | :12:54. | :12:58. | |
these unanswered questions, like from Spain there, they will look for | :12:59. | :13:01. | |
answers. Maybe tomorrow we will hear a plan. The start of that. The worse | :13:02. | :13:05. | |
thing that happened is the rise in hate crimes. How bad has it got | :13:06. | :13:10. | |
then, Chris? It's grim this, isn't it? Yes. Politicians at Westminster, | :13:11. | :13:17. | |
regardless on their view on this referendum campaign, which was | :13:18. | :13:20. | |
hugely divisive, people are upset about what is going on. The increase | :13:21. | :13:27. | |
in hate crimes, if you look over the last week against a couple of days a | :13:28. | :13:30. | |
month ago. The challenge at Westminster, political leaders want | :13:31. | :13:33. | |
to be seen to be doing something about it and condemning it. We look | :13:34. | :13:38. | |
round and the biggest question that anyone can ask somebody like me is - | :13:39. | :13:43. | |
who is in charge? We think, who is in charge at the moment, the Prime | :13:44. | :13:46. | |
Minister is on his way achl few weeks before we get another Prime | :13:47. | :13:51. | |
Minister. We look at Labour and my B in GCSE maths is wanting trying to | :13:52. | :13:56. | |
emcoo up with all the resignations. My finger and toes aren't enough. We | :13:57. | :13:59. | |
don't know who leads the Labour Party. All this happening while | :14:00. | :14:04. | |
there is this spike in hate crimes. The Prime Minister saying it's | :14:05. | :14:07. | |
despicable. They are setting up a unit to deal with it. Regardless of | :14:08. | :14:10. | |
people's strong views in the referendum people can recognise that | :14:11. | :14:14. | |
this kind of behaviour is obviously can never be justified. Which ever | :14:15. | :14:17. | |
side you are on, being British is looking after the person next to | :14:18. | :14:19. | |
you. Sure. Thank you, Chris. Cheers. Simon is back on cinema screens | :14:20. | :14:24. | |
soon, but he's a little bit hairier and a bit more tuneful | :14:25. | :14:27. | |
than you might have # A mother is crying that Acra what | :14:28. | :14:42. | |
I detect a selective respect. Visit macro eye and a protector of this | :14:43. | :14:47. | |
lost world. # But my friends call me Buck! Is a macro I have a message. | :14:48. | :14:55. | |
Return what you have stolen and go back to where you came from. Visit | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
macro you might be Jurassic but I am fantastic! That was stunning! Those | :15:02. | :15:14. | |
vocal gymnastics in this film, they are quite extraordinary. But for | :15:15. | :15:22. | |
that bit, you had some help? Can we point out why I am sitting in the | :15:23. | :15:31. | |
chair... ? Yes, a man came to help me who was an opera singer. We spent | :15:32. | :15:38. | |
one day together just getting the breathing right because I had to | :15:39. | :15:45. | |
sing from Figeuroa. And he helped to train me to breathe properly because | :15:46. | :15:47. | |
it is incredibly gymnastic and then I went to Los Angeles and recorded | :15:48. | :15:53. | |
with Mark mother 's birth and he produced it. It was a very tiring | :15:54. | :16:00. | |
day. I can imagine. And all of those words. You have the narrative as | :16:01. | :16:06. | |
well. There were more words than could possibly fit into that chain! | :16:07. | :16:12. | |
It was difficult but enormous fun. That is my second time playing with | :16:13. | :16:15. | |
character and he is so funny and lovable. You are returning to the | :16:16. | :16:27. | |
role. There must be some joy in revisiting that character? Always. | :16:28. | :16:31. | |
You have something to build upon, you have played the character before | :16:32. | :16:35. | |
and you know them. And you can take them forward and evolve them and at | :16:36. | :16:43. | |
the end of the previous film Buck stayed in the prehistoric world and | :16:44. | :16:48. | |
in the fourth film, he made that sacrifice and for this one, the | :16:49. | :16:53. | |
world is facing complete destruction and he finds out so he has to find | :16:54. | :16:58. | |
his friends and tell them so I get to leave the prehistoric world and | :16:59. | :17:06. | |
be on top. This is the fifth film. Did you worry, how can the writers | :17:07. | :17:12. | |
top this? They have managed to keep a sense of fun but it is a big ask? | :17:13. | :17:18. | |
It is a difficult thing to keep coming back to the same premise. It | :17:19. | :17:25. | |
is difficult to be episodic. You must bring you things along. With | :17:26. | :17:30. | |
this one they went crazy. There is a new colour palette. It actually | :17:31. | :17:38. | |
refers back to the very first ice age when Sid finds a UFO. There is | :17:39. | :17:44. | |
little joke when he sees that flying saucer in the eyes and it is this | :17:45. | :17:50. | |
flying saucer that Scrat takes into space and causes an asteroid | :17:51. | :17:54. | |
collision. It has great continuity. I think they have to take this one | :17:55. | :18:07. | |
up to 11. There is natural history thrown in. You are actually learning | :18:08. | :18:13. | |
about the history of the planet? It is a strange reality! We have healed | :18:14. | :18:20. | |
the grass Tyson, a very famous American thinker, who explains a lot | :18:21. | :18:26. | |
of things. Because the physics are quite ridiculous. Intriguing for | :18:27. | :18:32. | |
children. My son loves that. He is into science. It is kind of | :18:33. | :18:40. | |
scientifically correct! There are bits in there. And it is perfect for | :18:41. | :18:44. | |
your daughter? She is seven years old. And she might be the reason | :18:45. | :18:52. | |
that you may not do the next one? In terms of taking the job? These days, | :18:53. | :19:00. | |
filming means having to leave home and I can do something like ice age | :19:01. | :19:04. | |
at home. I can be anywhere recording voices. Films that come up that | :19:05. | :19:09. | |
might require living away from home for longer than four weeks, I have | :19:10. | :19:12. | |
to think carefully about that because it is difficult to be away | :19:13. | :19:19. | |
from your family. I tried a judge each project in terms of how long | :19:20. | :19:23. | |
it'll me away. Or if they can come with me? With Star Trek they all | :19:24. | :19:28. | |
went to Vancouver with me but she is in school. It is a balancing act. | :19:29. | :19:32. | |
You had a lovely time at Glastonbury! We have some footage... | :19:33. | :19:36. | |
Your daughter is on stage with Coldplay. The gutter! That is your | :19:37. | :19:45. | |
daughter in the colourful dress! The gutter! What a moment that must have | :19:46. | :19:53. | |
been. -- look at her. That was absolutely mind blowing. She is | :19:54. | :20:03. | |
between Apple and Moses. I first Glastonbury was at 17 and my biggest | :20:04. | :20:05. | |
achievement that weekend was managing to do -- not do it number | :20:06. | :20:13. | |
two for the entire weekend. And her first one, she is onstage! | :20:14. | :20:19. | |
Ice Age: Collision Course is in cinemas from the 15th July. | :20:20. | :20:22. | |
We'll talk to you later about appearing in the new Star Trek film. | :20:23. | :20:27. | |
Most of us take it for granted that we can recognise faces. | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
But for those with a surprisingly common condition, close friends | :20:35. | :20:37. | |
and even family members can appear as strangers. | :20:38. | :20:39. | |
Here's sufferer Mary Ann Sieghart explaining how face | :20:40. | :20:41. | |
I am Mary Ann Sieghart and I have a condition known as face blindness. I | :20:42. | :20:55. | |
have had this all my life but was only diagnosed in my 40s. I find it | :20:56. | :21:00. | |
hard to remember the faces of people I have met. There is just this sea | :21:01. | :21:05. | |
of faces and it is not as if they all look the same as each other. But | :21:06. | :21:10. | |
I just do not know who any of them are so am always getting into | :21:11. | :21:14. | |
trouble socially, offending people, which I hate because I like to be | :21:15. | :21:19. | |
polite in life. I don't recognise it or faces so I have to memorise a | :21:20. | :21:24. | |
list of individual characteristics. Ideally for me, somebody will have a | :21:25. | :21:30. | |
great wart on the end of their nose or a scar on her face. Really | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
unusual here, that is great because I will remember them. When I walked | :21:35. | :21:41. | |
down the street in my house, I have to be careful to the eye of anybody | :21:42. | :21:45. | |
because I am so terrified of seeing somebody I know and not recognising | :21:46. | :21:49. | |
them because I am so scared of snubbing somebody and being | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
offended. Sometimes the condition runs in families and one of my | :21:54. | :21:56. | |
daughters hazard also. It does bother me. It can often seem | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
light-hearted but not what I do not tell people often is it makes every | :22:02. | :22:06. | |
facet of life difficult, socially. I make a new friend and I'd like them | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
the next day. It does bother me. But as does abilities go, it is not the | :22:12. | :22:16. | |
worst. The Schmeichel disabilities. They spent years as a political | :22:17. | :22:21. | |
journalist and political journalist so I was based in the Palace of | :22:22. | :22:24. | |
Westminster and the House of Commons. Surrounded by middle-aged | :22:25. | :22:28. | |
men in grey suits who all look the same to me. I had no idea who any of | :22:29. | :22:34. | |
them wear. They would say hello, what do you think of Prime Minister | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
's questions? And I would not know who I was talking to, even if they | :22:38. | :22:45. | |
were the Labour Party or Tory. When people explain this to them, people | :22:46. | :22:50. | |
think I'm making some excuse for not recognising them and I have to keep | :22:51. | :22:54. | |
saying, it is a neurological syndrome, I would give anything not | :22:55. | :22:58. | |
to suffer from this. Doctor Sarah debate is leading research at the | :22:59. | :23:03. | |
Centre for face processing disorders at Bournemouth University. Put your | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
finger above your right year, you will be very close to what we called | :23:10. | :23:16. | |
the brain area that we believe is specified only four faces. There are | :23:17. | :23:23. | |
none too types? There is an acquired type which is where somebody | :23:24. | :23:27. | |
previously had normal face recognition skills and suffered a | :23:28. | :23:29. | |
brain injury. What seems to be much more common is a developmental form | :23:30. | :23:35. | |
of face blindness and those people have never experienced a brain | :23:36. | :23:37. | |
injury but for some reason, they have just failed to develop normal | :23:38. | :23:43. | |
face recognition skills. I am eating three other people with face | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
blindness. And we all struggle with this standard diagnostic test for | :23:47. | :23:51. | |
the condition. They all look very similar! Device number three in a | :23:52. | :23:59. | |
crowd, I could not pick him out. -- if Isil. Directly best people by | :24:00. | :24:07. | |
body shape, mannerisms, hairstyle. How many people can you recognise? I | :24:08. | :24:11. | |
would not say any of them. What about your wife? No. I never knew | :24:12. | :24:19. | |
who my friend was on the pitch playing football. I had to buy a | :24:20. | :24:24. | |
pair of white boots so that I could watch him. My wife always thought it | :24:25. | :24:31. | |
was because I was just so self-centred that I did not notice | :24:32. | :24:34. | |
people but I do not think that is the case. Face blindness is more | :24:35. | :24:39. | |
common than you would expect, affecting as many as one in 50 | :24:40. | :24:44. | |
people. Autism is not to affect one in every 88 people so this condition | :24:45. | :24:47. | |
is more prevalent than autism but much less well-known. It is not only | :24:48. | :24:53. | |
just about research funding, it is about raising public awareness. | :24:54. | :24:59. | |
Social acceptance. Absolutely. If I do meet you for the 15th time, | :25:00. | :25:03. | |
please do not be offended if I do not recognise you. It is really not | :25:04. | :25:09. | |
my fault! One in 50 of us! Have I met people with that? You start | :25:10. | :25:11. | |
wondering. If you'd like to hear more | :25:12. | :25:12. | |
from Mary Ann, she has made a documentary called | :25:13. | :25:15. | |
Who Are You Again which will air We've talked about the asteroid | :25:16. | :25:18. | |
in Ice Age, and it's Happy Asteroid Day! Thank you so | :25:19. | :25:25. | |
much! But do you know the difference | :25:26. | :25:41. | |
between and asteroid and a comet? Is this a joke? And astroid is a | :25:42. | :25:51. | |
large piece of space debris and a comet is a heavenly body travelling? | :25:52. | :25:58. | |
You're sitting next to an expert, Jay Tate on the Spaceguard Centre | :25:59. | :26:03. | |
and Colin Snodgrass from the open University. Was he right? More or | :26:04. | :26:13. | |
less so! The easiest and quickest definition is and astroid is | :26:14. | :26:17. | |
something that is a large log Rock left over whereas a comet is made | :26:18. | :26:26. | |
out of ice. So it has a nice tail. Asteroid Day, why is the 30th of | :26:27. | :26:32. | |
June Asteroid Day? The anniversary of an event in Tonga Isca when a | :26:33. | :26:40. | |
piece of comet blew up over Siberia and just happened to take out about | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
2000 square kilometres of forest, the same size as Greater London. You | :26:47. | :26:52. | |
work out the Spaceguard Centre. That sounds very exciting. Can you tell | :26:53. | :26:56. | |
us what goes on we find closed doors? They are so closed but the | :26:57. | :27:02. | |
public, and have a look every day! Where is it? Just on the English | :27:03. | :27:09. | |
Welsh border. Very secret! Highly classified. You are looking for | :27:10. | :27:16. | |
asteroids? We are about to start looking for them. We're just | :27:17. | :27:21. | |
installing any telescope to do that but at the moment we track the ones | :27:22. | :27:26. | |
that have been fined by the big search programmes in America. What | :27:27. | :27:31. | |
if you turn on the telescope and think, there is one! And it is too | :27:32. | :27:35. | |
late! Bent Grass numbers of people die in a very horrible way. Thank | :27:36. | :27:39. | |
you very much! That is not likely to happen! Can you deflect one coming | :27:40. | :27:47. | |
towards us? With time it is pretty straightforward. If it is short | :27:48. | :27:52. | |
notice, then there is nothing we can do. OK. Colin, comets, Colin can | :27:53. | :28:06. | |
tell us what a comet smells like! Yes, this is based on results from | :28:07. | :28:11. | |
European space agency ) Rosetta probe which is currently orbiting a | :28:12. | :28:16. | |
comet, sampling what it is made of and we have synthesised the smell of | :28:17. | :28:23. | |
the comet based on those results from Rosetta and the reason is | :28:24. | :28:27. | |
because next week there is a public exhibition and the Royal Society | :28:28. | :28:34. | |
summer science exhibition, a free festival in London and one of the | :28:35. | :28:36. | |
things we shall have at this exhibition are these postcards that | :28:37. | :28:41. | |
are impregnated with the scent of a comet. Is it like scratch and sniff? | :28:42. | :28:47. | |
Kind of. A modern scratch and sniff. You have a more intense version for | :28:48. | :28:56. | |
Simon? If you give those just a little rub. My God! It smells very | :28:57. | :29:11. | |
like the yorker -- Jorvik Centre. There is something about the | :29:12. | :29:18. | |
latrines on the Starship Enterprise! Or like country pub. Musty? No! It | :29:19. | :29:29. | |
also smells like Comet, the electrical store! | :29:30. | :29:35. | |
The company that made this for us also prepared a sample they sent us | :29:36. | :29:42. | |
last week thchl is more potent than what we are handing out to the | :29:43. | :29:46. | |
public next week. If you dare, I will pass this along. Have a whiff | :29:47. | :29:55. | |
of that. It lingers as well. Come on, come on. We have a link to do in | :29:56. | :30:03. | |
a moment. Spicy. I don't mind it. It's like a cleaning product. Nice | :30:04. | :30:07. | |
it reminds me of my grandmother's house. Does it? It's clean. I've | :30:08. | :30:16. | |
been in your grandmother's house, it doesn't smell like that. Anyway! | :30:17. | :30:20. | |
Thanks, guys. That was fascinating. I've started sweating now. It's hit | :30:21. | :30:28. | |
the back of my throat. Shortly, we'll be meeting | :30:29. | :30:33. | |
Kate Humble, Jon Flint and Jester to talk about Kate's quest | :30:34. | :30:35. | |
to explain our enduring to an extraordinary event | :30:36. | :30:38. | |
celebrating a bug eyed breed Every year there is a whole host of | :30:39. | :30:51. | |
music festivals to rock your socks off. There is another festival that | :30:52. | :30:56. | |
is getting tongues and tails wagging across the UK. | :30:57. | :31:01. | |
# Who let the dogs out... # Love them or hate them, pugs are | :31:02. | :31:06. | |
currently one of our nations most popular breed of dog. They have | :31:07. | :31:12. | |
risen by over 1,000% since the year 2000. It's no surprise that this | :31:13. | :31:17. | |
Pugfest event in Birmingham has attracted to many pug lovers from | :31:18. | :31:21. | |
around the country. Martin's son, Rob, run a pug rescue centre and are | :31:22. | :31:26. | |
the brains behind Pugfest. Their first pug, Poppy, had a Twitter | :31:27. | :31:31. | |
account and became something of an internet sensation. People loved it. | :31:32. | :31:35. | |
Within a couple of minutes she was getting retweets. It was going | :31:36. | :31:39. | |
crazy. With that, she got 17,000 followers. What? It was nuts. 17,000 | :31:40. | :31:45. | |
followers? Yeah. Sadly, Poppy passed away. In her honour Pugfest was set | :31:46. | :31:50. | |
up three years ago. Rob and Martin were worried no-one would come. I | :31:51. | :31:56. | |
remember the first night I was sat with Rob, he was worrying. I said, | :31:57. | :32:00. | |
if 50 people turned up it would be great. 1,500 turned up. We were | :32:01. | :32:07. | |
flabbergasted. It got bigger and bigger. Where are they such a top | :32:08. | :32:13. | |
dog? Pugs are on everything on TV. Adverts. Bedding. Posters, | :32:14. | :32:17. | |
everywhere. All of a sudden, you know, it has gone crazy. What is so | :32:18. | :32:24. | |
devine about this canine? He's really chilled and likes to sleep a | :32:25. | :32:31. | |
lot. Like me. They are not traditionally beautiful animals, are | :32:32. | :32:36. | |
they? I think they are. One of the major events here at Pugfest is the | :32:37. | :32:40. | |
doggy dash. I will take part with Rosie here. Don't let me down! With | :32:41. | :32:45. | |
all the dogs ready, who is going to be the leader of the pack? Time to | :32:46. | :32:48. | |
release the hounds. Did we win it? No - what do you | :32:49. | :33:07. | |
mean? Ah! Every dog has it is day. Unfortunately for Rosie, it's not | :33:08. | :33:11. | |
today. The winner of the event has put in some serious training. What | :33:12. | :33:15. | |
is your secret? She helped me train for the London Marathon. What? I | :33:16. | :33:25. | |
know. How far can she run? 15 miles. This is incredible specium. Yeah. | :33:26. | :33:31. | |
It's a lot of fun. Owning a pug can be problematic. A local vet has seen | :33:32. | :33:35. | |
some of the health problems pugs face. Because pugs have quite a | :33:36. | :33:43. | |
squashed nose and a flattened face, they struggle to breathe and often | :33:44. | :33:47. | |
they need surgery to repair that. Also their eyes are slightly large | :33:48. | :33:54. | |
and popping out of their heads. We see problem with their eyes. If you | :33:55. | :33:58. | |
are aware these are the problems you may deal with and be prepared. The | :33:59. | :34:03. | |
most hotly-anticipated event at Pugfest is the Best in Show | :34:04. | :34:08. | |
competition. This year it's been decided by a special guest judge - | :34:09. | :34:13. | |
ME! I'm not quite sure how to pick a hotdog. We are looking for the | :34:14. | :34:16. | |
condition of the coats. Right. The condition of the dog for the age. | :34:17. | :34:21. | |
Whether they are happy. A nice curly tail. What about smiling, do they | :34:22. | :34:27. | |
need to smile? They don't really smile. The grumpier looking the | :34:28. | :34:34. | |
better? Yeah. Grumpy face, excitable personality. There you go. They're | :34:35. | :34:39. | |
smiling I quick ly inside. Ly inspect the five fine Allists and | :34:40. | :34:42. | |
discuss the decision with the other judges. Are you sure? Positive. Are | :34:43. | :34:46. | |
you sure? Are we happy with that. We are all happy. All that is left to | :34:47. | :34:52. | |
do is announce who is Top of the Pugs. The winner of Best in Show, | :34:53. | :35:06. | |
Pugfest 2016 is - Bentley! Congratulations. Another Pugfest, | :35:07. | :35:11. | |
another winner. Go on, Hug a Pug - you know you want to. Huge | :35:12. | :35:18. | |
congratulations to all of the competitors there. Military I would | :35:19. | :35:23. | |
love to have a pug. Would you? I can see me with a pug. I wouldn't have | :35:24. | :35:27. | |
you down as a pug lover. No. We'll try it. I'm joined by Kate Humble | :35:28. | :35:35. | |
and Jon Flint with dog Jester, who is well behaved. We are here to talk | :35:36. | :35:42. | |
about the new book, Friend for Life - The Extraordinary Partnership | :35:43. | :35:48. | |
between Humans and dogs. Where do you stand on the pug scale? I like a | :35:49. | :35:54. | |
bigger dog. Dogs are tremendous personalities, as we know. Of | :35:55. | :35:58. | |
course. I think it's more about personality and type. I'm a girl | :35:59. | :36:03. | |
with a couple of mongrels, I am that he not fusses about looks and breed. | :36:04. | :36:07. | |
Your dogs are the inspiration for the book. Wasn't it your Welsh | :36:08. | :36:14. | |
sheepdog, Teg? It was. My lovely Teg. My first working dog. I never | :36:15. | :36:21. | |
worked a dog. Matt we would work on One Man and his Dog. I was dying to | :36:22. | :36:27. | |
be the one at the post. Now I live on a farm in Wales and have sheep it | :36:28. | :36:30. | |
seeped appropriate I should attempt at least to try and work with a dog. | :36:31. | :36:35. | |
Attempt is very much the word, I'm hopeless. She is brilliant and does | :36:36. | :36:39. | |
the work for me. When we started to work together. When I started to go | :36:40. | :36:45. | |
along this journey. It did feel like a journey. I realised that actually, | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
you know, pet dogs are one thing, having a partnership with a dog - it | :36:50. | :36:54. | |
really is a partnership. I was fascinated by that. That was really | :36:55. | :36:58. | |
then the inspiration to start looking and. The thing about a dog. | :36:59. | :37:03. | |
If you have a dog with you, they always upstage you. Actually, I know | :37:04. | :37:06. | |
the awedience are saying - Kate, shut up we want to look at the dog. | :37:07. | :37:11. | |
That's the way it always is. The instinct that dogs have, that is is | :37:12. | :37:16. | |
the angle you are going from. It's the crucial partnership. Jon here, | :37:17. | :37:21. | |
eczema rein with Jester. Give us an idea of how Jester fits in to your | :37:22. | :37:27. | |
life and how really he's helped you. You haven't always liked dogs, have | :37:28. | :37:31. | |
you? No, I wasn't a fan of dogs until I met my wife and then, yeah, | :37:32. | :37:40. | |
I got converted. Now I've got spinal injuries from service and I've had | :37:41. | :37:46. | |
two assistance dogs. Jester, who I have been with nine months and | :37:47. | :37:50. | |
before that my other dog passed away last year. They're just | :37:51. | :37:56. | |
life-changing dogs. It's a fantastic charity that they come from. They | :37:57. | :38:01. | |
are unbelievable. On a day-to-day basis then, how does Jester help | :38:02. | :38:07. | |
you? What stuff does he do? If I cop things, he will pick them up. Get | :38:08. | :38:11. | |
things out of the washing machine, open and close doors, press switches | :38:12. | :38:15. | |
for automatic do ares and do. That I can get out of the chair, and if I | :38:16. | :38:21. | |
have a fall, which I do quite a lot, my wife calls me a six foot one | :38:22. | :38:28. | |
toddler! Ah. He can go and get help. If there is nobody around, then | :38:29. | :38:32. | |
he'll go and get the phone for me. It gives my family freedom as well | :38:33. | :38:36. | |
because they are not afraid to leave me on my own. They know if something | :38:37. | :38:40. | |
happens Jester is there to look after me It's amazing what. Dogs can | :38:41. | :38:45. | |
do, isn't it? You did a lot of research, Kate, you travelled around | :38:46. | :38:49. | |
the world, didn't you? Yes. Which stories touched you the most then? I | :38:50. | :38:55. | |
think the thing that was so remarkable, really, was discovering | :38:56. | :38:59. | |
how many facets of human life dogs help and support. So even if you're | :39:00. | :39:04. | |
not a dog lover, there are plenty of people who don't particularly want a | :39:05. | :39:07. | |
pet dog. Aren't particularly interested in dogs. Actually, when | :39:08. | :39:12. | |
you you start to scratch below the surface you realise how many things | :39:13. | :39:17. | |
dogs do to help humans. You know, military working dogs are | :39:18. | :39:20. | |
extraordinary. They have saved more lives in Afghanistan than anything | :39:21. | :39:28. | |
else. There are dogs now being trained with Medical Detection Dogs | :39:29. | :39:33. | |
to detect human cancers. There are dogs that support people with | :39:34. | :39:38. | |
diseases like type one diabetes. I came across an extraordinary charity | :39:39. | :39:42. | |
called Paws for Progress that are taking rescue dogs that can't be | :39:43. | :39:48. | |
rehomed into a youth offenders prison in Scotland and training the | :39:49. | :39:51. | |
young men there to train the dogs. It's having a really great affect, | :39:52. | :39:55. | |
not just on the dogs that are getting rehomed, but also on the | :39:56. | :39:59. | |
inmates themselves. Jon's story was quite moving as well. He made me | :40:00. | :40:04. | |
cry. Ah. We will show a picture of Simon with some of his best friends. | :40:05. | :40:07. | |
You have a new addition to the dog familiar I will why haven't you, on | :40:08. | :40:13. | |
Monday. As well as the miniature snousers you you have this. That's | :40:14. | :40:20. | |
Cookie. What is that? I want one of those, forget the pug. The other two | :40:21. | :40:26. | |
is - what is that? They are not quite - they haven't bonded with her | :40:27. | :40:32. | |
yet. They are looking at her as if - what were you thinking. She is | :40:33. | :40:37. | |
ridiculous. Thank you for coming in. Thanks, Jon, Jester. Kate's book is | :40:38. | :40:45. | |
out now. All over the country there are war memorials listing the names | :40:46. | :40:49. | |
of thousands of men who died in the Battle of the Somme. Which took | :40:50. | :40:52. | |
place 100 years ago this week. From Friday, if you visit one, you might | :40:53. | :40:56. | |
just be fortunate enough to find one of these. Look. Tiny but poignant | :40:57. | :41:03. | |
pieces of art. We have been to meet the artist who put his time an | :41:04. | :41:07. | |
Monday into this unique commemorations. | :41:08. | :41:12. | |
These intricate figures are the work of Nick Jolly, famed for his | :41:13. | :41:19. | |
pint-sized works of art. He has been turning his skills to a series of | :41:20. | :41:25. | |
mini sculptures with a monument Al purpose. All over the country our | :41:26. | :41:31. | |
First World War memorials are in danger of being forgotten as the | :41:32. | :41:35. | |
names of many of the dead drift out of living memory. Nick has come up | :41:36. | :41:42. | |
with a plan to change all that. With the centenary of the Battle of the | :41:43. | :41:47. | |
Somme upon us he is putting his all to get us to seek out the our local | :41:48. | :41:54. | |
memorials and the sacre faces made by those who were injured or killed. | :41:55. | :42:00. | |
Tell me about this latest figure you created? It's a First World War | :42:01. | :42:05. | |
soldier standing at arms who is going to be holding a red poppy. | :42:06. | :42:10. | |
Very simple, unknown soldier. This is, basically, him. How many of | :42:11. | :42:15. | |
these figures are you creating? The Battle of the Somme lasted 141 days. | :42:16. | :42:25. | |
Making 141 figures. Standing 141 war memorials all over the country and | :42:26. | :42:32. | |
overseas. The Somme was one of the worst battles in the First World War | :42:33. | :42:35. | |
with death on a scale never seen before. On the first day alone | :42:36. | :42:39. | |
19,000 British soldiers lost their lives. Yet it went on and on with | :42:40. | :42:45. | |
weeks turning into months. We walk past all of this every single day. | :42:46. | :42:49. | |
War memorials in our villages everywhere. We never stop and look | :42:50. | :42:57. | |
at them. Even if, for one minute, someone somewhere notices and takes | :42:58. | :43:01. | |
note of what happened and looks at this memorial then we've succeeded. | :43:02. | :43:07. | |
Nick has spent almost ?4,000 and months of hard work on his passion | :43:08. | :43:11. | |
project and finally his army is nearing completion. On the bench | :43:12. | :43:16. | |
here we've got the last of the batch that are going out. You and me are | :43:17. | :43:21. | |
going to start finishing them up. We get a little file. We have to file | :43:22. | :43:25. | |
it down. Like doing your nails. Exactly. They are cast in bronze, | :43:26. | :43:34. | |
smuggled out to their secret locations for members of the public | :43:35. | :43:38. | |
to claim they have found one. Therein is the poppies. Bit by bit | :43:39. | :43:49. | |
you start to get your army. Soon the 141 golden soldiers will be ready to | :43:50. | :43:53. | |
be secretly placed across the country by an army of volunteers on | :43:54. | :43:58. | |
the 1st July. Each memorial has been carefully chosen because they carry | :43:59. | :44:01. | |
the names of many of those who lost their lives at the Somme. Sean is | :44:02. | :44:09. | |
one of the volunteers. In 2010 he was hit by a roadside bomb while | :44:10. | :44:15. | |
serving in Afghanistan. He lost both his lower legs and rendered | :44:16. | :44:20. | |
partially sighted. Nobody really remembers of the individual lives | :44:21. | :44:23. | |
given to certain battles. What Nick is doing is showing appreciation for | :44:24. | :44:27. | |
all them people who have given their lives for our country. The Battle of | :44:28. | :44:32. | |
the Somme has a personal resonance with you, doesn't it? My great | :44:33. | :44:39. | |
grandfather was a Signaller in the Royal Welsh Fusiliers. She joined | :44:40. | :44:43. | |
under age. He joined at 16. He was shelled and he ended up with | :44:44. | :44:48. | |
shrapnel on his legs for the rest of his life after. That that is why I | :44:49. | :44:51. | |
joined, because of the family connection. Tell us how you will | :44:52. | :44:56. | |
take part in the project? I will be placing one of Nick's golden | :44:57. | :44:59. | |
sculptures on a monument close by for people to come and pick it up on | :45:00. | :45:04. | |
the 1st July. He is making 141, there will be a lot of luck involved | :45:05. | :45:09. | |
if you find one, isn't there? Even if you don't find one, it's a | :45:10. | :45:13. | |
perfect way - a small way to remember all them people that have | :45:14. | :45:19. | |
laid down their lives for us. Now, for this little soldier's big | :45:20. | :45:26. | |
moment. I want people to stop for a minute and just think. And look. | :45:27. | :45:31. | |
They might find a little bit of treasure. | :45:32. | :45:38. | |
You never know, the sculptures will be placed by seven o'clock in the | :45:39. | :45:41. | |
morning. Which is when the whistles started | :45:42. | :45:47. | |
to blow along the trenches to start Nic is encouraging people to find, | :45:48. | :45:50. | |
photograph and share the sculptures online and then leave the sculptures | :45:51. | :45:54. | |
where they are so that Quite good. They are amazing. -- | :45:55. | :45:57. | |
quite beautiful. We talked about Ice Age earlier | :45:58. | :46:01. | |
but you have another film coming out in July, too - Star Trek: Beyond, | :46:02. | :46:05. | |
which you co wrote. For some of the Microsoft, that | :46:06. | :46:17. | |
must've been a dream job? But because somebody like yourself. | :46:18. | :46:23. | |
There was a screenplay and they decided to replace this with a newer | :46:24. | :46:28. | |
one and we only have six months so it was very intense and difficult at | :46:29. | :46:33. | |
times but we somehow managed to pull it off and here it comes. | :46:34. | :46:35. | |
You fulfilled a lifelong dream by playing Scotty the iconic role | :46:36. | :46:37. | |
Has anyone actually ever said "beam me up, Scotty" to you? | :46:38. | :46:47. | |
My mother always says that. If she is in a situation she is not fond | :46:48. | :46:56. | |
of, she would text me that. But nobody has ever said that in the | :46:57. | :47:02. | |
entire history of Star Trek. It was Scotty, beam me up, or I am ready. I | :47:03. | :47:08. | |
thought we could not bestride that tradition. What version did you go | :47:09. | :47:16. | |
for? I cannot remember! I was trying to desperately remember the script! | :47:17. | :47:18. | |
Is it true there's a button on set for pizza delivery? | :47:19. | :47:22. | |
No, I was just being facetious in another interview! We have lots of | :47:23. | :47:32. | |
interactivity on the set, all the buttons work and I told one magazine | :47:33. | :47:37. | |
in America that one of the buttons ordered pizza and they went without! | :47:38. | :47:44. | |
So did we! We started looking and you can age we get those buttons! | :47:45. | :47:48. | |
There would be one for ordering food. Chris always orders food from | :47:49. | :47:55. | |
the captain's chair on the bridge and the villain in the film, Idris | :47:56. | :48:04. | |
Elba, is anti-Federation, he hates the idea of all of these planets | :48:05. | :48:06. | |
working together. And moving forward. So the villain of Star Trek | :48:07. | :48:21. | |
beyond is essentially Boris Johnson! We have always been a Star Trek fan, | :48:22. | :48:25. | |
does the excitement get any less as you get older? I always try to see | :48:26. | :48:29. | |
this through the eyes of my younger self, I never wanted to be bland or | :48:30. | :48:34. | |
for work to be anything other than thrilling and I always try to | :48:35. | :48:37. | |
remember the wonder I had watching these films as a child. What would I | :48:38. | :48:46. | |
think? It is a lovely circular thing to be involved and especially | :48:47. | :48:50. | |
writing Star Trek and work with the cast, which is the most wonderful | :48:51. | :48:53. | |
group of people I have ever come across. It has been a joy. We are | :48:54. | :48:56. | |
looking forward to seeing that. Star Trek: Beyond will be released | :48:57. | :49:00. | |
on the 22nd of July. Back in February we visited | :49:01. | :49:03. | |
the residents of Hebden Bridge to see how they were coping 40 days | :49:04. | :49:06. | |
and 40 nights after the torrential floods which brought | :49:07. | :49:09. | |
their Christmas to an abrupt end. Now it's June, but as Tommy Sandhu | :49:10. | :49:11. | |
has discovered, Calderdale never Merry Christmas! It is the 25th of | :49:12. | :49:14. | |
June! What is going on? Christmas! I have just seen people with | :49:15. | :49:55. | |
Christmas hats, what is going on? It is the alternative Christmas. | :49:56. | :50:00. | |
Christmas in 2015 was ruined by the flooding, just the river behind us, | :50:01. | :50:06. | |
this was completely flooded, it was awful. As the One Show reported, the | :50:07. | :50:12. | |
area had one month of rainfall in one single day, causing ?32 million | :50:13. | :50:17. | |
worth of damage. What has gone into the programme? Brass bands, carol | :50:18. | :50:23. | |
singers, Father Christmas, Christmas market, the Christmas trees will | :50:24. | :50:28. | |
then be used as part of the flood defence programme. 2500 homes and | :50:29. | :50:33. | |
businesses were affected here in the valley. Some of them are still not | :50:34. | :50:38. | |
back to normal. The morning of Boxing Day, the water was over six | :50:39. | :50:43. | |
foot. And then just obvious that there was no way they were going to | :50:44. | :50:48. | |
get back into the shop and after six months, I'm still not in. The | :50:49. | :50:52. | |
community did Rudy come out in force. How long until you are back? | :50:53. | :50:58. | |
In the next couple of weeks, hopefully. Fingers crossed. And | :50:59. | :51:01. | |
there is lots of positivity on the streets. Does it feel crazy? You | :51:02. | :51:06. | |
just have to go for it. Is everybody? I think so. There is a | :51:07. | :51:11. | |
lot of community friendship, it is lovely. We have been singing | :51:12. | :51:19. | |
Christmas carols, Christmas. You are Mrs Santa Claus? I am the real one! | :51:20. | :51:29. | |
Who is she? She is just fake! It was devastating to see the time. And we | :51:30. | :51:33. | |
have rallied together and it has been really good. How are you | :51:34. | :51:40. | |
involved? On the first day it was moving people out of the flood | :51:41. | :51:44. | |
damaged houses and cleaning the streets and this has continued for | :51:45. | :51:50. | |
six months. Tasked with peeling 30 kilos of spuds and making mince pies | :51:51. | :51:54. | |
for 500 diners are Janet and her band of little helpers. Tell me | :51:55. | :51:58. | |
about the people sitting down for Christmas dinner. When we had the | :51:59. | :52:03. | |
floods, everybody rallied around, I manage the food bank for a while so | :52:04. | :52:08. | |
outside there are a lot of unsung heroes, they pitched in, they just | :52:09. | :52:13. | |
cleared all the mud. Doesn't feel like Christmas? Hell, yes! Last | :52:14. | :52:18. | |
night was like Christmas Eve, and the -- we were putting out the | :52:19. | :52:23. | |
stockings! It is Christmas! The floods brought help from diverse | :52:24. | :52:28. | |
committee groups from all over the UK. The numbers of people who came | :52:29. | :52:33. | |
to help out from the Syrian community, they have been newly | :52:34. | :52:38. | |
arriving immigrants, ask yourself, what can I do to help? They had | :52:39. | :52:47. | |
affinity? Exactly. The weather is gorgeous, I have not had to buy one | :52:48. | :52:52. | |
single Christmas present. Very Christmas! The party is still going | :52:53. | :52:58. | |
on, it is to Christmas Day on the 25th of June. I am stuffed and | :52:59. | :53:02. | |
thinking it is probably time I settled down on the sofa for the | :53:03. | :53:04. | |
Queen's speech! Merry Christmas! APPLAUSE. | :53:05. | :53:17. | |
Only six months to go! It feels like Christmas! | :53:18. | :53:19. | |
Earth, Wind and Fire played Glastonbury on Sunday and are just | :53:20. | :53:22. | |
about to embark on a UK tour we are joined by Verdine White | :53:23. | :53:25. | |
Before we chat to you both, let's see why Earth Wind and Fire | :53:26. | :53:34. | |
were one of the biggest bands on the planet, | :53:35. | :53:37. | |
APPLAUSE. You will open the show with Boogie | :53:38. | :54:40. | |
Wonderland? It is one of the biggest songs from the disco era and we | :54:41. | :54:43. | |
never thought of that as being disco and we were not sure if we would do | :54:44. | :54:48. | |
that. Because we had so many songs at the time. And the greatest hits. | :54:49. | :54:58. | |
Volume one, volume two, volume ten! We did not really chase after disco, | :54:59. | :55:04. | |
we were not interested in getting involved. Boogie Wonderland was an | :55:05. | :55:11. | |
accident! You were not interested in getting involved in disco? That was | :55:12. | :55:15. | |
a song for another artist and we heard that and we thought, we will | :55:16. | :55:21. | |
do that! I love your trousers! They really are something else! There are | :55:22. | :55:30. | |
always lots of you, 13 current members. Hasn't always a family | :55:31. | :55:39. | |
affair? No doubt! They drafted me as a drummer. And just went on from | :55:40. | :55:45. | |
there. And Philip, the lead singer, as his son onstage. Yes, very much a | :55:46. | :55:53. | |
family affair. You were just going with the flow, doing what felt like | :55:54. | :55:59. | |
-- felt right, but looking back, why were you so revolutionary in the | :56:00. | :56:03. | |
1970s? The credit has to go to my brother, Morris, he created the | :56:04. | :56:08. | |
concept and he was so strong about this, for quite some time, we went | :56:09. | :56:15. | |
along with that. He led us to a lot of great places, musically, | :56:16. | :56:20. | |
culturally, the lyrics, his leadership. We were quite young and | :56:21. | :56:25. | |
he was that Big Brother meant or figure. It was the right band at the | :56:26. | :56:30. | |
right time with the right marketing. And it was his idea to bring the | :56:31. | :56:35. | |
band to the UK in the early 70s, most bands had not come here. And | :56:36. | :56:40. | |
thank goodness you did! Your estate shows are quite something! There is | :56:41. | :56:45. | |
magic, all sorts. Did you ever work with David Copperfield? Yes, David | :56:46. | :56:52. | |
Copperfield. And the late Bill King. Look at that! There it is! Exactly. | :56:53. | :56:59. | |
What is the most fun you have ever had onstage? You are asking Earth, | :57:00. | :57:08. | |
Wind and Fire that! It is really fun every night. And we do this every | :57:09. | :57:14. | |
night so we have five nights to tell you how much fun we have had! We | :57:15. | :57:18. | |
have had a lot of fun and what we are finding is we have five | :57:19. | :57:24. | |
generations. New kids coming to see us. And people asking for autographs | :57:25. | :57:30. | |
who were not even born. They must have been conceived at a concert! | :57:31. | :57:34. | |
Thank you for all of the music! You can see Earth, Wind | :57:35. | :57:38. | |
and Fire on tour in the UK Yes. We asked you for pictures of | :57:39. | :57:59. | |
your favourite chair. We have had thousands! This is Mike and rocky! | :58:00. | :58:08. | |
He looks like he has a meteorite! Robert has gone for your favourite, | :58:09. | :58:15. | |
this is a recliner, on Father's Day. And this will happen tonight. This | :58:16. | :58:19. | |
is Paul from Glasgow on his red leather recliner. Watching the One | :58:20. | :58:29. | |
Show! I have got the same few! And Karen's Parker made this rocking | :58:30. | :58:33. | |
chair for her! Very quickly, one left to do. Look at that! Winston in | :58:34. | :58:37. | |
his favourite chair! Thanks to all our | :58:38. | :58:40. | |
guests this evening. Simon's film, Ice Age: | :58:41. | :58:42. | |
Collision Course, is out on the 15th of July and Kate's book, | :58:43. | :58:45. | |
Friend for Life, is out now. And if you fancy a boogie, Earth, | :58:46. | :58:47. | |
Wind and Fire are currently touring We'll be back tomorrow | :58:48. | :58:52. | |
with Mylene Klass and actress Sharon Rooney joining us | :58:53. | :58:55. | |
on the sofa. Hello, this is your | :58:56. | :58:56. | |
90-second update. There's been a day | :58:57. | :59:12. | |
of mourning in Turkey. 41 people are now known to have died | :59:13. | :59:13. | |
in a terror attack The Prime Minster has called | :59:14. | :59:16. | |
on the Labour Leader David Cameron says it's | :59:17. | :59:23. | |
in the "national interest". | :59:24. | :59:26. |
