Hello and welcome to the One Show with Angela Scanlon. | :00:21. | :00:36. | |
If you have a swoon when you hear that, | :00:37. | :00:43. | |
and it's become the soundtrack to loved-up couples everywhere. | :00:44. | :00:48. | |
Thank you very much! It is a beautiful song. Tell us about the | :00:49. | :01:04. | |
moment when you first bladed to your wife, Chrissy. I sang it to her in | :01:05. | :01:12. | |
bed, and she started crying, but she didn't hear the recorded version for | :01:13. | :01:16. | |
a little while. But I was really happy with it, I thought she might | :01:17. | :01:21. | |
like it. I sang it for her, and she loved it. Is that the barometer, if | :01:22. | :01:26. | |
you get emotion? Making her cry is too much of a bar, most of my songs | :01:27. | :01:32. | |
would never get put out! I imagine you have got a piano at home, she is | :01:33. | :01:38. | |
constantly hearing things. Most of my writing happens in the studio, I | :01:39. | :01:43. | |
go to work, I feel like it is a work day, collaborate with other writers, | :01:44. | :01:47. | |
we come up with ideas. She doesn't like to hear them until they are a | :01:48. | :01:50. | |
little more further along, because she wants to hear them close to | :01:51. | :01:54. | |
done, because she hates when she falls in love with the original demo | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
version and then we change it, she hates that. She's like, wait until | :01:59. | :02:03. | |
you are closer to done to play it. You were on piano yesterday, very | :02:04. | :02:08. | |
lucky travellers at London's St Pancras! Wonderful! How does that | :02:09. | :02:15. | |
piano compared to others? It was a good one! I have played a range of | :02:16. | :02:21. | |
pianos, we had an old one, beat up in the house when I was growing up, | :02:22. | :02:26. | |
I played on a church piano. That was out of tune halve the time. So | :02:27. | :02:33. | |
everything is a step up from them! Did you enjoy that? I loved it! I | :02:34. | :02:38. | |
loved it. They were so many surprise fans there, just on their commute, | :02:39. | :02:43. | |
some of them coming in from Europe, but some of them just going to work. | :02:44. | :02:49. | |
It was really cool to just interact with the fans that were there. We | :02:50. | :02:55. | |
know you have quite a full trophy cabinet, ten Grammys, Golden Globes, | :02:56. | :02:58. | |
an Oscar, but have you ever held one of these? Is that a gold medal? I | :02:59. | :03:03. | |
have held one before, but they are pretty awesome! From Atlanta, this | :03:04. | :03:12. | |
is cool! 20 years old. There are quite a few back there, there are | :03:13. | :03:19. | |
loads! I carried the torch when you guys at the London Olympics, in | :03:20. | :03:25. | |
Edinburgh. Yeah, so I ran with it for a while. Sir Steve Redgrave and | :03:26. | :03:28. | |
James Cracknell have seven of them between them, and we will find out | :03:29. | :03:33. | |
later why they are going head to head. And between the three of us, | :03:34. | :03:39. | |
we have seven as well! Mark Watson and Sophie Raworth, they are here, | :03:40. | :03:42. | |
we will find out what they have been doing in a boat. | :03:43. | :03:45. | |
You may remember when a couple of weeks ago | :03:46. | :03:47. | |
Ed Sheeran was in and met up with a six-year-old superfan Jaden, | :03:48. | :03:50. | |
who was distraught that he couldn't get a ticket to see Ed play | :03:51. | :03:54. | |
a very special charity gig for the Teenage Cancer Trust. | :03:55. | :03:56. | |
Some of the tickets were later offered for huge mark-ups | :03:57. | :03:58. | |
on the website Viagogo, even though it had been specifically asked | :03:59. | :04:01. | |
Matt Allright is keen to get some answers. | :04:02. | :04:11. | |
It is the night Ed Sheeran fans have been waiting for. He is playing a | :04:12. | :04:19. | |
very special date at the Royal Albert Hall to raise funds for the | :04:20. | :04:23. | |
Teenage Cancer Trust. Tonight is a complete sell-out, and these guys | :04:24. | :04:26. | |
are not just turning out to sea edge Sheron but support a charity that | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
helps kids when they are going through the Tavistock times. -- to | :04:31. | :04:34. | |
see Ed Sheeran. The money from ticket sales is going to a trust, | :04:35. | :04:40. | |
but not just the charity is profiting from this gig. Earlier | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
this month, we revealed how online ticket resale site Viagogo allowed | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
people to Celtic and for thousands of pounds, money which will not | :04:51. | :04:54. | |
benefit sick young people. -- to sell tickets. The trust asked | :04:55. | :05:02. | |
company not to let it happen. They have put people on the door to stop | :05:03. | :05:09. | |
people with an official tickets getting in. -- unofficial. Tickets | :05:10. | :05:16. | |
are only valid if fans have valid photo IDs which matches the person | :05:17. | :05:22. | |
who bought the tickets. How do you feel about the extra restrictions? | :05:23. | :05:27. | |
It is a good idea, especially because it is for a good cause. It | :05:28. | :05:31. | |
is a charity gig, you shouldn't be able to sell them. To buy them from | :05:32. | :05:37. | |
a tout and be rejected at the door, I would be heartbroken. We didn't | :05:38. | :05:41. | |
find anyone with a unofficial ticket to add been turned away, but touts | :05:42. | :05:48. | |
were still around. We saw one ticket reseller helping his buyer get in. | :05:49. | :05:52. | |
We have just seen the loophole in the system, the tout walks in with | :05:53. | :05:57. | |
his own IT, and now that guy, who was paid over the odds for a ticket, | :05:58. | :06:01. | |
money that will not make it to the Teenage Cancer Trust, he is about to | :06:02. | :06:05. | |
watch Ed Sheeran. We flagged this to the staff, but as the seller could | :06:06. | :06:10. | |
match the name on the ticket, security had to let them in. The | :06:11. | :06:15. | |
trust's director of fund-raising accents the system isn't perfect. I | :06:16. | :06:21. | |
don't think any system is foolproof, we have done everything that we can, | :06:22. | :06:26. | |
the music should be about people who want to support Teenage Cancer | :06:27. | :06:29. | |
Trust, which is what these shows are all about. Meanwhile, the Government | :06:30. | :06:33. | |
is currently reviewing the whole of the secondary ticketing sales | :06:34. | :06:37. | |
market. Last week, Viagogo gave evidence at the Commons select | :06:38. | :06:43. | |
committee, but it refused to attend. They do not believe they have | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
adequate representation in the UK in order to assist the committee with | :06:47. | :06:53. | |
its inquiries. That is odd, because the American band started the | :06:54. | :06:58. | |
company in the UK. We started the business in Europe, and it moved | :06:59. | :07:03. | |
over to London... When he set up Viagogo, he was living at this smart | :07:04. | :07:06. | |
Knightsbridge address, and although the edge quarters are in Switzerland | :07:07. | :07:10. | |
and Ireland, they have an office registered in London. When Eric is | :07:11. | :07:15. | |
next in the country, I want to see if he will come into the show for a | :07:16. | :07:22. | |
chat. Look at this, some tickets for Eric Baker to appear on the sofa as | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
a guest. The beauty of these is that they are free! So let's see if he is | :07:28. | :07:35. | |
at the Viagogo office in London. Hello, looking for Viagogo. Are they | :07:36. | :07:43. | |
no longer here? They have moved, they have still got the lease. | :07:44. | :07:50. | |
People like me? Tickets. We don't have any information to give. | :07:51. | :08:00. | |
Security will not let our cameras into the office, but they let me | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
have a look around. The desks are there, there is still signage, and | :08:06. | :08:09. | |
there is also a load of male sitting on the table. At the top of the pile | :08:10. | :08:14. | |
was a letter from the House of Commons, unopened, to the executive | :08:15. | :08:20. | |
or chief executive of Viagogo. Maybe it was the invitation to join them | :08:21. | :08:23. | |
at deselecting ready. So it seems Eric Baker and Viagogo are doing | :08:24. | :08:31. | |
their best to avoid the spotlight. I think the clearest way to get the | :08:32. | :08:35. | |
message to him is this, the tickets are here, you are welcome on the One | :08:36. | :08:40. | |
Show any time to explain the situation with Viagogo and the | :08:41. | :08:44. | |
Teenage Cancer Trust. You don't even need photo IDs, we know what you | :08:45. | :08:51. | |
look like. Matt is with the us now, why did the | :08:52. | :08:57. | |
House of Commons summon Viagogo and those other websites? If you are a | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
music fan, you probably know the answer, if you have used these | :09:02. | :09:06. | |
sites, people are reporting that they have very disappointing | :09:07. | :09:08. | |
experiences, the tickets can be faked from time to time, the prices, | :09:09. | :09:13. | |
you look at the prices of some of the tickets, they seem to be | :09:14. | :09:16. | |
exorbitant, and sometimes people have booked through and can only | :09:17. | :09:21. | |
work out what the prices when it is in front of them. All sorts of | :09:22. | :09:24. | |
reasons why the House of Commons looked at this and thought it needed | :09:25. | :09:28. | |
regulation. The House of Lords have been looking at it at well, what | :09:29. | :09:32. | |
have they been discussing? In the last couple of days? They have | :09:33. | :09:36. | |
brought in a couple of interesting amendments to strengthen consumer | :09:37. | :09:39. | |
law to make sure that if there are restrictions on the tickets, things | :09:40. | :09:43. | |
like partial viewing, those sorts of things, anything that might affect | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
your decision to buy those tickets, that should be there upfront, terms | :09:49. | :09:52. | |
and conditions, restrictions should be upfront. But they are also | :09:53. | :09:57. | |
looking to outlaw software which can get around the restrictions, to be | :09:58. | :10:04. | |
able to harvest these tickets in hundreds or thousands and then sell | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
them on. How successful they can be to stop people using those is a | :10:10. | :10:12. | |
different matter, but they are going to try to make it against the law. | :10:13. | :10:17. | |
For you, your European tour tickets are going on sale tomorrow, this | :10:18. | :10:24. | |
software is going to harvest them. Yeah, and we will get feedback on | :10:25. | :10:28. | |
social media when fans asking, why are you charging $1000? We are not | :10:29. | :10:35. | |
charging that amount, these resale sites are judging this exorbitant | :10:36. | :10:39. | |
amount. We want our fans to pay a fair market price for the show, but | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
we don't want these bots coming in, snatching up all the tickets, making | :10:46. | :10:48. | |
them more scarce and then selling them to the highest bidder, | :10:49. | :10:52. | |
capturing all the value, making it hard for people with regular incomes | :10:53. | :10:57. | |
to come and see the show. There are some artists who are trying to sort | :10:58. | :11:06. | |
it out. We try, it is hard. Talk to Iron Maiden, they say they have got | :11:07. | :11:11. | |
rid of 90% of it. It is hard, there are electronic ways of stopping it | :11:12. | :11:14. | |
from happening, but it is a challenge. Thank you for coming in, | :11:15. | :11:21. | |
Matt. John, not only are you a talented songwriter, but an | :11:22. | :11:25. | |
executive producer now, you can add La La Land to your long list of | :11:26. | :11:32. | |
credits, let's see you in action. # I don't know what your name is | :11:33. | :11:39. | |
# But I like it let's I don't know what to do | :11:40. | :11:46. | |
# But I want to do it with you... # I enjoyed and too, it was fun. | :11:47. | :11:55. | |
Oh! A lot of fans of La La Land in the house, did you realise when you | :11:56. | :11:59. | |
were working on it that it was so special? Because, I mean, it has | :12:00. | :12:04. | |
been... The positivity around it has been just bonkers. Well, when we | :12:05. | :12:08. | |
were executive producing projects, you never know for sure that | :12:09. | :12:12. | |
everything is going to line up perfectly, but it is great when you | :12:13. | :12:21. | |
have a great director, which Damien is, Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone are | :12:22. | :12:25. | |
fantastic, there was a great script, and you just hope you execute it in | :12:26. | :12:29. | |
the right way, and personally, as an actor, I hadn't done a lot about | :12:30. | :12:33. | |
before, it was my first major speaking role, so I took a lot of | :12:34. | :12:37. | |
coaching, I wanted to make sure I was prepared, and I did all of that, | :12:38. | :12:41. | |
and I felt really comfortable, belt really good, like I was surrounded | :12:42. | :12:45. | |
by a great team. I felt great about it, but you never know how it is | :12:46. | :12:52. | |
going to turn out, so many moving parts and so many people involved, | :12:53. | :12:54. | |
but it really worked, it connected with a lot of people. And it has had | :12:55. | :12:59. | |
that added publicity as well after the Oscars. Yeah! That was quite an | :13:00. | :13:05. | |
ending! How did you put that into words? Well, the moment was crazy, | :13:06. | :13:09. | |
because first of all you are thrilled, but there was that weird | :13:10. | :13:13. | |
moment when Warren Beatty hesitated, and then Faye Dunaway hesitated, and | :13:14. | :13:18. | |
it was all kind of a little bit weird, but then they said our name, | :13:19. | :13:23. | |
so everything was good! We go up on stage, so excited, then you see a | :13:24. | :13:28. | |
guy with a headset walking around, and you are like, something is | :13:29. | :13:33. | |
wrong... I thought maybe they were walking us off the show, saying we | :13:34. | :13:37. | |
were taking too long to accept the award. But no, it wasn't our award | :13:38. | :13:44. | |
to win! There has got to be a song in there! By the time I figured out | :13:45. | :13:47. | |
what was going on, it went from joy to confusion to, eventually, kind of | :13:48. | :13:54. | |
just laughing at it, it was pretty absurd. If you couldn't laugh at it, | :13:55. | :14:00. | |
then... You would cry! Yeah, channel it into your next album. This album | :14:01. | :14:06. | |
has, the title, Darkness And Light, it is a very personal album. Sure! I | :14:07. | :14:11. | |
was writing it as my wife was pregnant and we were about to have | :14:12. | :14:16. | |
our first child, so some of that was in my mind, this is the first album | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
I have written since I got married, so those emotions and those feelings | :14:21. | :14:27. | |
were all in the album. Is it harder to put those feelings into music | :14:28. | :14:31. | |
when you want to be so protective about your family? No - because I | :14:32. | :14:36. | |
feel like, as an artist, you want to be honest when you are writing, you | :14:37. | :14:45. | |
want to communicate real emotion, and feeling those real emotions and | :14:46. | :14:48. | |
having those real situations to write about, I think that makes it | :14:49. | :14:52. | |
easier to write. And that has always been aching for you, that sense of | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
duty as an artist to reflect emotion. I want to write about that | :14:57. | :15:03. | |
and what is happening in the world too, and I think as long as we are | :15:04. | :15:06. | |
being honest, our fans will connect with what we are doing. Nina Simone | :15:07. | :15:14. | |
has been a big inspiration. Yeah, we named our daughter Luna Simone, she | :15:15. | :15:17. | |
is an artist I have always looked up to, an artist needs to reflect the | :15:18. | :15:23. | |
time in which they live, that is a quote. I loved her voice, piano | :15:24. | :15:28. | |
playing, her spirit of boldness, of not being categorised, not being | :15:29. | :15:33. | |
able to be told to sit down and shut up. She spoke truth, she sang truth, | :15:34. | :15:38. | |
and she was an inspiration for all creative people, I think. | :15:39. | :15:44. | |
John's tour, Darkness And Light, kicks off in Glasgow, tickets go on | :15:45. | :15:48. | |
sale tomorrow. John has come to Europe at a very | :15:49. | :15:51. | |
interesting time in our history, with the UK leaving | :15:52. | :15:56. | |
the European Union. As the process of arguing over | :15:57. | :15:58. | |
every tiny detail begins, we asked three couples who've been | :15:59. | :15:59. | |
through their own separation to The British people have spoken, and | :16:00. | :16:15. | |
the answer is we are out. The first year of the marriage was perfect, we | :16:16. | :16:20. | |
had two cats, we played tennis. It started it delicately, and then our | :16:21. | :16:25. | |
busy lifestyles took over. This is an historic moment for which there | :16:26. | :16:30. | |
can be no turning back. When our youngest was four, Tim met someone | :16:31. | :16:36. | |
else, and then we split up. Europe is ready to start the divorce | :16:37. | :16:42. | |
process. We didn't have any problems in our marriage. We just stopped. | :16:43. | :16:52. | |
Well, one of us stopped. We must do everything we can to make the | :16:53. | :16:54. | |
process of divorce the least painful. You go through pain, rage, | :16:55. | :17:00. | |
grief, murderous intent, you want to kill the person, and then you have a | :17:01. | :17:04. | |
point at which you just have to decide you are going to be very | :17:05. | :17:07. | |
practical for the future relationship you are going to have. | :17:08. | :17:12. | |
The emotional turmoil was that everybody. We handle our own | :17:13. | :17:16. | |
divorce, and cried our hearts out, because we just couldn't understand | :17:17. | :17:21. | |
that life just got so busy that... We forgot what was important. | :17:22. | :17:26. | |
TRANSLATION: Anyone who wants to leave this family can't expect to | :17:27. | :17:30. | |
leave their responsibility was keeping all their privileges. Then | :17:31. | :17:35. | |
the negotiations about who will keep the cats, who will get the CDs. It | :17:36. | :17:41. | |
was important to retain a friendship, because Tim is the | :17:42. | :17:45. | |
father of the children. It is really important that both people come out | :17:46. | :17:49. | |
of it sensing fairness, because that is going to be your relationship for | :17:50. | :17:56. | |
the next 20, 30, 40 years. I also want to be clear, here today and | :17:57. | :17:59. | |
across Europe in the weeks ahead, that we are not walking away from | :18:00. | :18:04. | |
our European friends. It was full of anguish and grief, all of those | :18:05. | :18:08. | |
things that come with a break-up, of course. But you have to keep | :18:09. | :18:13. | |
channels open, and it helped in both of our situation is that we were not | :18:14. | :18:17. | |
going to other partners. There was a time even at the beginning when I | :18:18. | :18:21. | |
felt that my friendship with Tim were so important that I would still | :18:22. | :18:25. | |
be his friend no matter what. Even though we were going off and doing | :18:26. | :18:29. | |
our own things, we were always on the phone together, always friends, | :18:30. | :18:32. | |
and we would talk to each other about our new partners, that kind of | :18:33. | :18:37. | |
which sounds bizarre, but they would never quite match up to each other. | :18:38. | :18:41. | |
Different guys I have been very into, Tim has advised me on | :18:42. | :18:46. | |
different stuff. I don't have any partner. I tried not to be a monk, | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
but age has taken its toll. I want the deal to reflect the kind of | :18:53. | :18:56. | |
mature, corporative relationship that close friends and allies | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
enjoyed. It is important inside a break-up to remember what it was | :19:03. | :19:04. | |
that attracted you to the other person in the first place and to | :19:05. | :19:08. | |
hang onto those values and then to continue to use them and develop | :19:09. | :19:13. | |
them. You can't go back. You have to live with the choices you have made. | :19:14. | :19:17. | |
However painful they were forever body. Happiness and love is more | :19:18. | :19:22. | |
important than anything else in the world. We just realise that anyone | :19:23. | :19:26. | |
else that we met couldn't that up, really, so we made a decision. To | :19:27. | :19:33. | |
get back together again! We married about four years ago, blissfully | :19:34. | :19:36. | |
happy. Thank you to all of the Couples, | :19:37. | :19:43. | |
lovely that Julie and Martin are back together, but that's not a | :19:44. | :19:46. | |
reflection of what we think will with Brexit. My parents got divorced | :19:47. | :19:51. | |
and got back together. But then they got divorced again! Well, they gave | :19:52. | :19:57. | |
it a good shot. We are not saying that that is a good reflect on, | :19:58. | :20:03. | |
either. Who is most likely to win an argument in your house? Chrissy, of | :20:04. | :20:10. | |
course! Apparently, she is burning down the house while you are away. | :20:11. | :20:16. | |
Apparently my mother-in-law was making sausages and they started a | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
fire, but we have a lot of sting wishes of the house. Everyone is | :20:21. | :20:27. | |
still alive, and the house is still intact. -- a lot of extinguishers. | :20:28. | :20:34. | |
People will find out who is in charge! | :20:35. | :20:36. | |
In a moment, we'll be catching up with Sir Steve, James, | :20:37. | :20:39. | |
Mark and Sophie, who have taken part in the first ever UK Cancer Reseach | :20:40. | :20:42. | |
That's after JJ Chalmers has shown us how a hidden masterpiece | :20:43. | :20:54. | |
Throughout its history, the British military has had to face a hard | :20:55. | :21:03. | |
truth. With war comes casualties. I should know. In 2011 while serving | :21:04. | :21:08. | |
as a Royal Marine in Afghanistan, a roadside bomb blew away part of my | :21:09. | :21:12. | |
hand, broke my neck and changed my world forever. The care I received | :21:13. | :21:16. | |
in hospital not only saved my life, it allowed me to continue living it | :21:17. | :21:21. | |
to the full. 300 years ago, things would have been different, and I | :21:22. | :21:26. | |
probably would have ended up here. Known today as the Old Royal Naval | :21:27. | :21:30. | |
College, this imposing building on the banks of the River Thames in | :21:31. | :21:34. | |
Greenwich was originally built to care for Britain's injured and | :21:35. | :21:38. | |
ageing sailors. And at its heart is a painting of monumental importance, | :21:39. | :21:42. | |
and overlooked masterpiece which is now being brought back to life. It | :21:43. | :21:48. | |
is just spectacular. More than I expected. Every single inch is | :21:49. | :21:54. | |
covered in artwork that is just... It is epic. Spanning over 4000 | :21:55. | :22:02. | |
square metres, this colossal mural is the largest painted interior in | :22:03. | :22:07. | |
Britain, and took nearly two decades to complete. Dr Matthews is the | :22:08. | :22:13. | |
creator studying -- jury to studying what has been called Britain's | :22:14. | :22:20. | |
Sistine Chapel. Who created this? He was a fascinating figure, Sir James | :22:21. | :22:23. | |
Thornhill, an ambitious young artist from Dorset, and he was chosen to | :22:24. | :22:29. | |
take this extraordinary mural over more glamorous Italian and French | :22:30. | :22:31. | |
decorative painters. How important is this please? It is hugely | :22:32. | :22:37. | |
important. It is a snapshot of our national history at the beginning of | :22:38. | :22:41. | |
the 18th century. We are at war with the French, and you even have the | :22:42. | :22:48. | |
new Protestant monarchs, William and Mary. Nowadays we are quite reserved | :22:49. | :22:56. | |
in Britain, but this is so butch. There is nothing subtle about it at | :22:57. | :23:00. | |
all. Work started on the painting in 1708, but 300 years of direct | :23:01. | :23:03. | |
sunlight and pollution have taken their toll. Now an ?8.5 million | :23:04. | :23:09. | |
renovation is hoping to restore this masterpiece to its former glory. The | :23:10. | :23:13. | |
most challenging phase focuses on the 500 square metres ceiling. A | :23:14. | :23:18. | |
viewing platform has been erected to allow access, and The One Show has | :23:19. | :23:24. | |
been given an opportunity to see it up close. Look at this! It is the | :23:25. | :23:30. | |
latest in a long line of restoration attempts, the most recent of which | :23:31. | :23:36. | |
was captured by the BBC in 1958. It is extremely hard and difficult | :23:37. | :23:40. | |
work. When it is fully restored, it will be splendid. Six decades later, | :23:41. | :23:44. | |
a new team of conservatives is trying to turn back the clock. So | :23:45. | :23:48. | |
what is it that you are trying to do now? We are happy to deal with the | :23:49. | :23:53. | |
previous 60 years of dust and grime that has been accumulating. The key | :23:54. | :23:58. | |
thing is to remove the dirt, but without in any way affecting the | :23:59. | :24:04. | |
underlying original painting. This is a USB microscope which gives us | :24:05. | :24:08. | |
around 100 times magnification, which is wonderful for | :24:09. | :24:12. | |
characterising some of the surface quality. You can really see the | :24:13. | :24:19. | |
damage in the cracks. Exactly. It picks up the dust and dirt in | :24:20. | :24:22. | |
microscopic detail, but it also shows the natural ageing of this | :24:23. | :24:31. | |
300-year-old painting. And just like in the 1950s, the laborious process | :24:32. | :24:36. | |
of restoration is mainly done by hand. This is some of your team at | :24:37. | :24:40. | |
work. Yes, this is Francesca and Eliza, doing some very wonderful | :24:41. | :24:48. | |
water cleaning. Just water. And they are withdrawing a considerable | :24:49. | :24:51. | |
amount of dirt on their swabs. This is a wonderful opportunity to invite | :24:52. | :24:55. | |
the public to come and see conservation in action, for the | :24:56. | :24:59. | |
first time. We have a lift to allow wheelchair access up onto the deck, | :25:00. | :25:04. | |
so everybody can enjoy this work of art. As a former member of the Armed | :25:05. | :25:07. | |
Forces, particularly the senior service, the Navy, and just being | :25:08. | :25:11. | |
British, coming it gives me an enormous sense of right, but what is | :25:12. | :25:15. | |
really special is that everybody can get a chance to come face-to-face | :25:16. | :25:18. | |
with one of the nation's greatest artworks. | :25:19. | :25:22. | |
You can see the Painted Hall Ceiling Tour at the Old Royal Naval | :25:23. | :25:27. | |
We are joined by two sporting legends and their proteges - | :25:28. | :25:31. | |
Sir Steve Redgrave, James Cracknell, Mark Watson and Sophie Raworth. | :25:32. | :25:36. | |
Sophie, what have you been doing with this lot? | :25:37. | :25:45. | |
We were asked to take part in the first celebrity boat race in the | :25:46. | :25:54. | |
name of Cancer research, and we did one section of the boat race, so we | :25:55. | :25:57. | |
literally did Putney to Hammersmith Bridge, a boat of eight, five | :25:58. | :26:03. | |
complete novices, me, Gethin Jones, Vernon Kay and the like, and there | :26:04. | :26:08. | |
we are. We are wearing the pink outfits. We had a couple of training | :26:09. | :26:13. | |
sessions, that was it, and then straight in. And you were capped in, | :26:14. | :26:19. | |
Sophie? I didn't realise I was captain until I read it in the | :26:20. | :26:23. | |
newspaper later! We had Andrew Triggs-Hodge in the boat, and | :26:24. | :26:31. | |
Olympian who had just won in Rio, so I was captain in name only. And | :26:32. | :26:38. | |
James Comey how did she get an? It was very much like rowing with | :26:39. | :26:45. | |
Steve, actually! And then she legged it to go and read the news. So | :26:46. | :26:48. | |
positive! You had some unorthodox | :26:49. | :26:51. | |
advice on how your team That is one way of putting it. Five | :26:52. | :27:02. | |
complete novices, and a lot of moving parts, the tide, the | :27:03. | :27:05. | |
currents, all the boat getting lined up in the first place, I realised if | :27:06. | :27:09. | |
you jump the start, they were not going to call you back, so I said, | :27:10. | :27:18. | |
just start, and they won't call you back, don't stop! Let's turn to | :27:19. | :27:23. | |
Steve. Our Michelle and Dan Snow | :27:24. | :27:24. | |
were on your team. He rowed the Boat Race for real | :27:25. | :27:27. | |
as a student, of course, The whole idea was to have one | :27:28. | :27:37. | |
session, and then there would be a session before the race and then the | :27:38. | :27:43. | |
race on the same day. But rowing is all about practice, and to get | :27:44. | :27:48. | |
people from complete novices into a race situation is almost impossible. | :27:49. | :27:52. | |
I have been coaching on and off for 40 years, and I have never met | :27:53. | :28:00. | |
anybody like mark before. That is sort of what you dream about Steve | :28:01. | :28:05. | |
Redgrave staying about you. Did you have an issue with the oar? I just | :28:06. | :28:14. | |
had trouble rowing the boat! It's what we call catching a crab in the | :28:15. | :28:19. | |
game, so I managed to bruise a rib quite badly before we've got on the | :28:20. | :28:22. | |
boat, and it went downhill from there. The first session was a | :28:23. | :28:26. | |
matter of saying, I can't row, and I thought I would be a K because there | :28:27. | :28:29. | |
were strong rowers in the team, but they said the boat can only go at | :28:30. | :28:33. | |
the speed of the weakest rower, and another a lot of thinking to do! I | :28:34. | :28:38. | |
had to come in for extra sessions. Is speeded up quite considerably | :28:39. | :28:39. | |
now. We'll have to wait until Sunday | :28:40. | :28:42. | |
to find out which team won, so we're going to have a race | :28:43. | :28:45. | |
of our own with these two sub teams. Brains provided by team coaches | :28:46. | :28:49. | |
Redgrave and Cracknell, and brawn I think Sophie and I should switch | :28:50. | :28:51. | |
places. That is not the point! Rowers, you've got one minute to row | :28:52. | :29:02. | |
as many metres as you can. Meanwhile your teammates | :29:03. | :29:05. | |
will be answering questions Each question is worth a 20-metre | :29:06. | :29:06. | |
bonus, so it's important to be What's George Clooney's most | :29:07. | :29:10. | |

It is 2-2. 250 on mark's side, 200 on Sophie's, so Mark and Steve Wynn! | :30:12. | :30:40. | |
You guys got competitive down there, I can see the sweat! | :30:41. | :30:42. | |
APPLAUSE Thanks for joining us, John, | :30:43. | :30:46. | |
and good luck with the tour. Don't forget you can tune | :30:47. | :30:48. | |

"Who's funding her campaign?" Why would anyone eat a baby? | :31:18. | :31:24. | |
It's a little baby. Animals - must we really | :31:25. | :31:25. | |
stop eating them now | :31:26. | :31:28. |
