:00:17. > :00:21.Hello, welcome to The One Show with Alex Jones and Matt Baker. It is
:00:21. > :00:26.the night I have been dreading for weeks. Yes, it is the start of
:00:26. > :00:29.Strictly Come Dancing 2011, where 14 of us will be doing our best
:00:29. > :00:39.impressions of real dancers. Which should give our guest an
:00:39. > :00:45.Nice to see you again. Are you dreading it as much as Alex?
:00:45. > :00:49.Tonight? Well, I woke up at 5am. I thought, what are those steps? I
:00:49. > :00:53.got out my iPod and I started around the bedroom, colliding with
:00:53. > :00:59.a chest of drawers. Every time I turned around, quickly, it would go
:00:59. > :01:05.on to the next track. It gets to you, doesn't it? I haven't even got
:01:05. > :01:08.the track on my iPod. This worries me. She's got a string quartet in
:01:08. > :01:12.her bedroom! We spent quite a lot of time together over the last
:01:12. > :01:20.couple of weeks. We know that you like to do a bit of a prissy
:01:20. > :01:23.impression. AS BRUCE FORSYTH: It goes with the territory, yes.
:01:23. > :01:29.was a bit taken aback, when you started doing your impression of
:01:29. > :01:35.him? When everybody does the warm- up, I can't resist... AS BRUCE
:01:35. > :01:44.FORSYTH: We love to dance. Going up behind Tess Daly, changed that
:01:44. > :01:47.joke! Turns around, God! He is a legend. It is officially the
:01:47. > :01:57.hottest last day of September in a century. If you've been enjoying
:01:57. > :02:01.Later, we will be finding out why Queen guitarist Brian May has
:02:01. > :02:05.turned investigative reporter. As he well knows, there is just an
:02:05. > :02:09.hour and a half before his wife, Anita Dobson, and half of the
:02:09. > :02:14.dancers perform for the first time. These were the scenes earlier,
:02:14. > :02:21.queues of people dying to get in. You said you saw some with sun
:02:21. > :02:26.burn? There were queues of them, they had been sunbathing all day.
:02:26. > :02:29.It's like Centre Court tickets! At least we've got a roof on
:02:29. > :02:33.Television Centre, we are guaranteed some play. You're left
:02:33. > :02:39.in no doubt that the public owns the show. The tide of goodwill,
:02:39. > :02:42.optimism, just warmth. If there is one thing I remember, it is this
:02:42. > :02:46.sickness phase you are going through at the moment. It really
:02:46. > :02:50.doesn't get any better. It gets progressively worse. You get less
:02:50. > :02:56.time to be sick. Anyway, you will be fine. You know what we are going
:02:56. > :03:00.through. Just enjoy it. Earlier today I went to Strictly
:03:00. > :03:05.headquarters to capture the anxiety, the panic and to disturb Edwina
:03:05. > :03:09.Curry in her underwear! So, here we are. This is where
:03:09. > :03:17.everybody arrives and get out of their cars. This is Television
:03:17. > :03:21.Centre. Harry! How are you? Amusing way through my hands. Can I come
:03:21. > :03:28.out? My partner, we did a rehearsal yesterday and she was extremely
:03:28. > :03:33.nervous. If you get nervous, it means that you care. In a few weeks
:03:33. > :03:39.you have been dancing with James, your buttocks have turned up.
:03:39. > :03:43.on! I call her Bambi, she is my little Bambi. She's not the most
:03:43. > :03:51.co-ordinated person in the world, but she is improving massively.
:03:51. > :03:55.That is all I can ask for. Alex! Yes. Good luck with that, James.
:03:55. > :03:59.This is everybody's lunch. Somebody has got some fish and chips. Over
:03:59. > :04:07.here is where they keep all of the glamorous costumes. We are not
:04:07. > :04:13.really allowed in here. We will Transit! Just in their... Edwina is
:04:13. > :04:20.getting changed! -- we will transfer it. After yesterday, I
:04:20. > :04:23.literally lost the plot. I couldn't even hear the music starting. Well,
:04:23. > :04:29.here we are in make-up. This is probably the most relaxing part of
:04:29. > :04:32.the day. It is also the part when you think about how nervous you
:04:32. > :04:37.are! This is the really important that. All of the professional
:04:37. > :04:46.dancers will walk through these doors to get into the studio. This
:04:46. > :04:50.is where I will be feeling really I feel the need to applaud after
:04:50. > :04:56.that, I think it's marvellous. How has everything going with your
:04:56. > :05:04.training? We've got some footage. Erin is fantastic. I've got the
:05:04. > :05:10.best possible partner. Let's look at you in action. Good lines.
:05:10. > :05:13.are very quiet. Incredibly quiet. I'm thinking what to do. I have to
:05:13. > :05:21.dress in black because of the World Cup. She is from New Zealand, that
:05:21. > :05:25.is my All Blacks outfit. I think we should change the rules, when you
:05:25. > :05:34.are standing at the top of the stairs, they put a heartbeat into
:05:34. > :05:43.the music. They say, and now... We did think of that in our dance
:05:43. > :05:51.at the end. The freestyle. Or the Birdie Song? How I your teeth?
:05:51. > :05:56.had root canal surgery on Monday. Excuses! It it doesn't affect my
:05:56. > :06:01.dancing. But, you know, my face just smelt -- swelled up like a
:06:01. > :06:06.balloon. I thought, I don't want that happening at the show. To a
:06:07. > :06:13.man and woman, it's a great bunch of people. Jason is so funny.
:06:13. > :06:19.brilliant! I feel that I've got a string on the top of my head, and a
:06:19. > :06:26.poll up my backside. And Russell, he couldn't be happier, darling! I
:06:26. > :06:30.am so happy! And Vincent, I spoke to Vincent today... He has got a
:06:30. > :06:36.very strange way of speaking. Nancy and Anton is worth watching
:06:36. > :06:44.tomorrow. When I get nervous, actually, I just go into doing and
:06:44. > :06:48.Do you find when you spend time with people that you start
:06:48. > :06:52.automatically impersonating them? Or do you think you will do a bit
:06:52. > :06:58.of homework? I'd been doing it a lot recently. People have been
:06:58. > :07:08.asking if I can do impressions in the dancing. Occasionally, doing
:07:08. > :07:14.
:07:14. > :07:20.the salsa, I'll do Sean Connery. It becomes the shalsa. Ended say that
:07:20. > :07:29.she loved dancing with a different celebrity each day. She's brilliant.
:07:29. > :07:39.Have you got Alex done? She came on and said, are there any Fritz? She
:07:39. > :07:39.
:07:39. > :07:49.was so excited, she arrived on the set. -- fruits. But, I mean...
:07:49. > :07:53.Before this, you were known for doing so more political stuff on
:07:53. > :07:58.Channel 4. Why do you then feel that you want to enter the world of
:07:58. > :08:03.spray tan? There was such a tide of positive energy. You say, I'd been
:08:03. > :08:06.asked to do Strictly. They say, I love that show! There comes a time
:08:06. > :08:11.when you shouldn't take yourself too seriously. Take the show CVC,
:08:11. > :08:14.but not yourself. You throw yourself into it. I was worried I
:08:14. > :08:18.would make Ann Widdecombe look like Ginger Rogers. The worst thing that
:08:18. > :08:24.can happen is that you will be totally humiliated, someone once
:08:24. > :08:27.said. And I like fake tan! We'll take our mind of the dancing with
:08:27. > :08:31.comfort food. There's nothing better than a freshly baked loaf of
:08:32. > :08:35.bread. But some are better than others. Here's a question for you.
:08:35. > :08:45.How many loaves of bread does the average household eat in one year?
:08:45. > :08:49.Invented in 1961, the Chorleywood baking process provides 80% of the
:08:49. > :08:54.bread that we eat now, boosted by extra yeast and additives, it is
:08:54. > :08:59.cheaper, faster and baked in huge quantities. But it has not been
:08:59. > :09:03.without critics. Many say it has made bread Dole and reduces flavour.
:09:03. > :09:09.Others point to the large amounts of salt used in some loaves of
:09:09. > :09:16.bread. But there is an alternative bread that can be traced back as
:09:16. > :09:18.far as Ancient Egypt. Now, as then, the sourdough method relies on
:09:18. > :09:23.naturally-occurring used, rather than blocks of commercial yeast.
:09:23. > :09:32.The foul and water then entered here is the basis. -- flower. As
:09:32. > :09:39.the yeast keeps reproducing, bakers keep starter dough that dates back
:09:39. > :09:43.years. It breathes life into bread to make it rise. The good way about
:09:43. > :09:48.making this bread, you don't need much commercial yeast or salt
:09:48. > :09:52.either. Each mix needs just a small amount of starter dough. As long as
:09:52. > :09:58.you keep feeding it with flour and water, the precious used within the
:09:58. > :10:05.starter just keeps reproducing. Ind deary, it can live for centuries. -
:10:05. > :10:10.- In Theory. Some of these starter doughs have past two generations,
:10:10. > :10:14.crossing Continents on the way. was brought over by our head baker
:10:14. > :10:19.from South Africa and it has stayed here ever since. Are they is a
:10:19. > :10:22.fanatical? When they arrive in the area, they will share it with other
:10:22. > :10:26.bakers and create their own starter. They will feed it and it just
:10:26. > :10:31.becomes their life, really. It becomes part of them. Time to
:10:31. > :10:38.uncover the secrets of the well- travelled yeast with in this mother
:10:38. > :10:43.DoH. This is coming with me. This is a East Bank in Leatherhead,
:10:43. > :10:48.where hundreds of different strains are analysed, perhaps locked and
:10:48. > :10:53.frozen in liquid nitrogen at temperatures of -190 degrees
:10:53. > :11:01.centigrade. Science is insuring the tradition of artisan the yeast is
:11:01. > :11:06.not lost to future generations of brewers and bakers. Some clients
:11:06. > :11:11.have their own strain that they guard very jealously. We are able
:11:11. > :11:15.to bat bat for them and look after it for them. It's a sort of a back
:11:15. > :11:21.stock in case they have some sort of a disaster. -- Bank that for
:11:21. > :11:25.them. This living collection of the state back to the late 1800s. It
:11:25. > :11:28.contains 850 strains. I've brought one more for analysis. You have to
:11:28. > :11:33.have a look at the sample that we have brought to you from rosy's
:11:33. > :11:38.bakery. That would be great. are really enthusiastic about it
:11:38. > :11:41.aren't you? Definitely, it's fascinating. It's going to take a
:11:41. > :11:51.few days to analyse the unique properties of the sourdough yeast.
:11:51. > :11:52.
:11:52. > :12:00.Back at the bakery I am carrying I can see why it is called sour
:12:00. > :12:08.dough. There is a pronounced Tanni nest to it. It is a Joel -- chore
:12:08. > :12:11.worker. You must be very proud? It is good stuff. The effort involved
:12:11. > :12:16.means that sourdough often costs double the price of standard bread.
:12:16. > :12:19.But you really get what you pay for. And not about to suggest that all
:12:19. > :12:23.bread should be baked this way. There is always going to be a place
:12:23. > :12:29.for industrial scale breaking -- baking, producing a lot of bread at
:12:29. > :12:35.affordable prices. But it's good to see that with the help of artisan
:12:35. > :12:38.bakers, the old sourdough alternative is thriving. As for the
:12:38. > :12:42.analysis of the dough, it looks like an about to find out the
:12:42. > :12:50.results. Speaking of results, Rory, how many
:12:50. > :12:57.do you think? How many loaves of bread? 150. It is 80. Food would
:12:57. > :13:01.have thought? More results! I had in my hand some a GAR jelly with
:13:01. > :13:05.the yeast from rosy's bakery. It's not that great, they Iraq three
:13:05. > :13:08.different kinds of yeast in here. In the kind of bread you buy from
:13:08. > :13:14.the supermarket, there is only one. That is what is so great about
:13:14. > :13:20.sourdough bread. It's a much more serious blow for bread. I've got a
:13:20. > :13:25.serious bread face on. I'm glad you have an appropriate face. Sourdough
:13:25. > :13:34.is quite expensive, but prices are bred in general are rising? There
:13:34. > :13:38.was a big spike between 2006 and 2008. It went up from 75p to �1.28.
:13:38. > :13:43.UN sliced bread is slightly cheaper than sliced. The less they do to it,
:13:44. > :13:47.the more you get. The problem is, it is all about wheat. That is now
:13:47. > :13:51.an international commodity. It is traded around the world. The
:13:51. > :13:55.harvest has been pretty good, but there is a whole host of factors
:13:55. > :13:59.that can influence that. Supermarkets try to keep the price
:13:59. > :14:03.down, because it is what gets people into the shops. But we can
:14:03. > :14:06.never guarantee that it will always be cheaper. It has been a bad
:14:06. > :14:10.summer? The wheat harvest is looking pretty good across the
:14:10. > :14:14.world. Talking of people that buy their bread from supermarkets, they
:14:14. > :14:17.are missing out on variety? I'm not going to condemn any body for
:14:17. > :14:23.having a busy life and getting their bread from supermarkets. What
:14:23. > :14:26.bothers me is that we risk losing those artisan skills of baking. If
:14:26. > :14:29.it all becomes industrialised, nobody will know how to make the
:14:29. > :14:37.stuff. You get very individual bread from local bakers. Nothing
:14:37. > :14:41.better. You off bread? It's just a chance to do a bit of detox. While
:14:41. > :14:44.I'm doing Strictly I just wanted to... Slim down? Dancers are so
:14:44. > :14:54.careful about what they eat. I think bread is something I just
:14:54. > :15:01.
:15:01. > :15:11.thought I would... You don't want a Have some of that. This is Japanese
:15:11. > :15:13.
:15:13. > :15:16.bread, wrapped in cooky dhow. Brian May is one of our most
:15:16. > :15:20.successful musicians, but when he was last here, he told us he would
:15:20. > :15:25.rather be remembered for his love of animals than for music. One of
:15:25. > :15:30.his passions is the protection of badgers. He is worried about the
:15:30. > :15:36.proposed Cole, which the Government says is needed to protect cattle
:15:37. > :15:40.from TV. -- cult. Here we are in the beautiful
:15:40. > :15:42.countryside and how peaceful it looks, but there is a war going on
:15:42. > :15:48.out here between people who want to protect their cattle from disease
:15:48. > :15:53.and those who want to protect wildlife. Badger culling is a
:15:53. > :15:58.proposal, as part of a wider controlled programme for bovine TB,
:15:58. > :16:02.a very serious disease of cattle in many parts of England. I think the
:16:02. > :16:06.notion that we could actually eliminate the disease by culling
:16:06. > :16:09.badgers is completely misguided. The Government is about to license
:16:09. > :16:17.the killing of hundreds of thousands of badgers in an attempt
:16:17. > :16:20.to control bovine TB. Are they justified? TV is a disease called
:16:20. > :16:24.by breathing in airborne droplets from an infected animal. Right now,
:16:24. > :16:28.farmers have to kill any cow that has tested positive for TB to try
:16:28. > :16:35.to control the spread of the disease. That is why they are upset.
:16:35. > :16:39.For years, the finger of suspicion has been pointed out badgers. --
:16:39. > :16:43.pointed at badgers. I am here because I believe animals have
:16:43. > :16:47.feelings and my work to try to protect wildlife. If the two sides
:16:47. > :16:54.can pool their resources, there is a chance of beating the disease of
:16:54. > :16:58.bovine TB in cattle and in badgers. Badgers living a network of tunnels
:16:58. > :17:05.which can be hundreds of years old. But they live in a network of
:17:05. > :17:08.tunnels. They are a protected species. Jan is the spokesman for
:17:08. > :17:15.bovine TB for the National Farmers' Union and runs a dairy farm in the
:17:15. > :17:19.middle of a TV hot spot. How many badger setts in the neighbourhood?
:17:19. > :17:23.Probably five main ones that affect us. This is probably one of the
:17:23. > :17:28.entrance holes and there are more back in the bushes of there.
:17:28. > :17:33.1971, that is the time when a badger was first found on a farm
:17:33. > :17:37.with TB. It began at that point. It appeared that TB had gone from the
:17:37. > :17:43.cattle into the badgers. That has to be the assumption. But it was
:17:43. > :17:46.only since it came up the Cotswold escarpment towards us, in the
:17:46. > :17:50.badgers, and we saw it in the badgers on this farm before it got
:17:50. > :17:53.into the cattle. One year, three different badgers that we found
:17:54. > :17:57.dead had TB, and the next time we had a TB test, about six months
:17:58. > :18:01.later, we went down with it and have been going down of the sense.
:18:01. > :18:06.You are assuming badgers are the main problem. A lot of people would
:18:06. > :18:10.say it is more from one account to another. It is only when you get
:18:10. > :18:15.cattle living alongside the endemic effected badger population that you
:18:15. > :18:20.get this persistent recurrent TB. The transmission route from badgers
:18:20. > :18:23.to cattle has not been proven. Animal welfare group the badger
:18:23. > :18:26.trust reject the theory that badgers are the main cause of
:18:26. > :18:32.transmission of the disease. They believe that infected cattle slip
:18:32. > :18:37.through TB testing and infect the rest of the herd. The so-called
:18:37. > :18:42.skin test to test cattle at the moment is at best only 80% accurate.
:18:42. > :18:46.So we hear this figure from farmers about 25,000 cattle being
:18:46. > :18:49.slaughtered last year in England alone. And we feel sorry about that,
:18:50. > :18:56.as we do about the death of badgers. But what that means is that there
:18:56. > :19:01.are over 6000 infected cattle left in the national herd. That is the
:19:01. > :19:04.single biggest problem. A ten-year scientific study concluded that
:19:04. > :19:09.culling badgers cannot make any significant difference, so why are
:19:09. > :19:13.farmers still pushing for it? I am saying is that we have passed
:19:13. > :19:17.evidence here that it makes a very big difference. The proposed
:19:17. > :19:21.culling areas we are talking about are going to be much bigger. We are
:19:21. > :19:24.going to look carefully at the boundaries of those areas. We are
:19:24. > :19:28.talking about culling badgers in close proximity to cattle in the
:19:28. > :19:33.south-west of the country where we know we have a problem. If this is
:19:33. > :19:38.not the right solution, what is the solution? We very strongly believe
:19:38. > :19:43.in vaccination for both cattle and badgers. Why are you rejecting
:19:43. > :19:47.vaccination? It is colossally expensive to use and totally
:19:47. > :19:52.unproven as to whether it actually reduces the disease enough in
:19:52. > :19:55.badgers to stop its billing back into cattle. You and I strongly
:19:55. > :19:59.believe in the long run vaccination will be the answer, probably
:19:59. > :20:03.vaccination in cattle, but we are many years away from that being
:20:03. > :20:08.allowed an being effective. We are going to head towards 40,000 cattle
:20:08. > :20:11.being killed the game this year. We have to do something about it.
:20:11. > :20:15.would it take for you to sit down at a table with people like the
:20:15. > :20:18.badger trust? I am sure that I and a few colleagues would be happy to
:20:18. > :20:23.sit down with them and try to get a better understanding of where they
:20:23. > :20:29.are coming from. Would you be amenable to that? Certainly, we
:20:29. > :20:33.would be amenable to any discussion that might move things forward.
:20:33. > :20:36.These talks are now going ahead but we need them to succeed in finding
:20:36. > :20:42.some new answers, because if they do not, we will soon be looking at
:20:43. > :20:48.slaughter of our wildlife on a huge scale. Bryan joins us now. What did
:20:49. > :20:52.you have to achieve by making this film? First, awareness, because I
:20:52. > :20:55.meet people in the street who go, what, what is going on? I want
:20:55. > :20:58.people to know there is this terrible crisis and we are looking
:20:58. > :21:04.at losing thousands of badgers, a lot of whom would be healthy,
:21:04. > :21:07.probably most of them. The other thing was that I was trying... I
:21:07. > :21:12.rejected the idea that we should fight the farmers. Many people
:21:12. > :21:15.think that would be the way to go, to boycott the farmers. I thought
:21:15. > :21:18.from the beginning that was a bad idea and the way to conquer the
:21:18. > :21:24.disease is to team up with farmers and try to help them solve their
:21:24. > :21:32.problems. And did your views change when you met up with the farmer?
:21:32. > :21:35.kind of knew the script. Both sides are entrenched. He is great. I
:21:35. > :21:39.think he tells his story very well and I have great sympathy for him
:21:39. > :21:42.and the farmers going through this. But my contention is that Carling
:21:43. > :21:48.is not the way to go, particularly the one which has been proposed by
:21:48. > :21:52.the Government at the moment. -- culling. It was great that we heard
:21:52. > :21:56.that both sides are prepared to talk but what do you see as the
:21:56. > :21:59.solution? I am excited that they are going to talk in the same room
:21:59. > :22:05.together and I will be there. I hope to see some thinking outside
:22:05. > :22:08.the box. Both sides have to rethink. Vaccination is what I would like to
:22:08. > :22:12.see. It is expensive, but it should not be about money, it should be
:22:13. > :22:17.about ethics, whether we should be killing healthy animals, or solving
:22:17. > :22:21.our business problems in another way. There are other things. I get
:22:21. > :22:24.unpopular when I say what else could happen. If I was a farmer and
:22:24. > :22:28.bringing up my cows in a particular place where I knew they were going
:22:28. > :22:35.to get sick, I would stop doing it and do it someplace else. You can
:22:35. > :22:41.do it in East Anglia. Moving your farm? I have operated myself many
:22:41. > :22:46.times. I know that is a hard thing to do. -- I have up rooted myself.
:22:46. > :22:49.But there are ways around this. Culling is a very risky business.
:22:49. > :22:54.All of those that have been done in the past have made the problem
:22:54. > :22:58.worse, so you have made -- you are taking a terrible risk. You have
:22:58. > :23:04.farmers who have been on the land for generations. You heard those
:23:04. > :23:09.facts, 25,000 cattle culled last year. And it is costing the
:23:09. > :23:13.taxpayer. Something has to be done. On that, we agreed. Am hoping there
:23:13. > :23:16.will be enough common ground that some kind of plan can be involved -
:23:16. > :23:26.- evolved which makes more sense and does not involve killing and
:23:26. > :23:27.
:23:27. > :23:32.killing, because that will go on forever. In other news... Your wife,
:23:32. > :23:42.Anita Dobson, a huge night for her. How is she feeling? How has she
:23:42. > :23:46.been? Well, it is hell. She is in Boot Camp, but she loves it. I have
:23:46. > :23:50.never seen that Lady so happy. She loves every minute. She does not
:23:50. > :23:55.want to win, just to stay in long enough so she can do the training.

:24:12. > :24:16.for your photos. We know that it is not sunny everywhere, so send some
:24:16. > :24:19.pictures of you in the rain as well. Jamie Crawford as a story of a
:24:19. > :24:27.British landscape photographer who started horsing around to settle a
:24:27. > :24:31.bet. It is so easy to take split- second stills and slow-motion film
:24:31. > :24:38.for granted but some of these techniques are far older than you
:24:38. > :24:44.imagine. More of the way we see the world and how we understand bodies
:24:44. > :24:47.in motion. It all began with a bet on the horses. Eadweard Muybridge
:24:47. > :24:52.was an astonishingly innovative photographer who initially worked
:24:52. > :24:55.with some of the first plate cameras in the 1860s. He put
:24:55. > :24:59.himself in precarious positions to photographs stunning natural
:24:59. > :25:05.landscapes. But it would be his revolutionary study of movement
:25:05. > :25:08.that would make him famous the world over. The story goes that
:25:08. > :25:16.railroad tycoon and horse breeder and the Allen Stanford approached
:25:16. > :25:21.Muybridge to settle a bet on the theory of whether all four of a
:25:21. > :25:26.horse's hooves were off the ground at any point. It was a hot topic in
:25:26. > :25:31.the time, but seemingly impossible to prove. They had no reliable
:25:31. > :25:35.shutters. They had to rely on their own devices for exposing the
:25:35. > :25:39.photographic negative. So they needed long exposures in order to
:25:39. > :25:44.let a huge amount of light into the camera. Yes, and that meant
:25:44. > :25:48.effectively you could not capture fast movement. How did he sold it?
:25:49. > :25:52.He set up banks of cameras and develop his own unique form of
:25:52. > :25:56.shutter. They were set up in front of a white background and the track
:25:56. > :25:59.was very white as well, so he would reflect a lot of light into the
:25:59. > :26:02.lens, but the image would be better defined against the white
:26:02. > :26:08.background. The horse would run across and trigger the threads and
:26:08. > :26:12.it would trigger the shutter to open in one-hundredth of a second.
:26:12. > :26:16.The horse galloped through in less than one second and each camera
:26:16. > :26:19.caught a different stage of the motion. For the first time,
:26:19. > :26:24.Muybridge captured motion impossible to see with the naked
:26:24. > :26:29.eye, proving that all four of a horse's feet left the ground at the
:26:29. > :26:33.same time, and Stamford won his bet. But Muybridge had caught more than
:26:33. > :26:39.just an image of unsupported transit. He captured the full
:26:39. > :26:43.anatomical process of a horse's gallop. By tracing each stage on to
:26:43. > :26:50.a zoopraxiscope, his own invention, he was able to project the motion
:26:50. > :26:54.16 years before the creation of the film projector in France. We have
:26:54. > :26:59.come to Epsom Downs to recreate this momentous event and see if we
:26:59. > :27:04.can also capture a horse in unsupported transit. Muybridge was
:27:04. > :27:08.also surrounded by a assistance, and I am, too. Instead of using the
:27:08. > :27:16.chemical triggers, we have a rank of people to do it manually. Here
:27:16. > :27:22.comes a horse. The question is, have any of these cameras caught
:27:22. > :27:27.the horse with all four feet off the ground? And here is the proof
:27:27. > :27:32.of unsupported transit, recreating Eadweard Muybridge's technique over
:27:32. > :27:37.130 years later. Today, we could have just filmed a horse on a high-
:27:37. > :27:43.speed video camera. But even today, stills cameras can have the edge
:27:43. > :27:48.over a single video camera. Imagine, for example, Muybridge's cameras
:27:48. > :27:53.perhaps curving around the subject, capturing the action. What you get
:27:53. > :27:57.is a virtual fly around. If it seems familiar, a version of this
:27:57. > :28:01.technique, at times lies, was hailed as cutting edge in the
:28:01. > :28:07.Hollywood blockbuster of the Matrix, and this clip shows all of the
:28:07. > :28:10.stills cameras lined up, just like Muybridge's. There is no doubt that
:28:10. > :28:15.Muybridge changed the way we see the world, making the invisible
:28:15. > :28:19.visible by showing how bodies appear in motion. He deepen our
:28:19. > :28:23.understanding of photography, and more than 100 years on, his
:28:23. > :28:27.innovation still has the power to stop us in our tracks.
:28:27. > :28:37.Unbelievable, the lengths people will go to to settle the debt.
