Hello and welcome to The One Show with Alex Jones. | :00:18. | :00:19. | |
Tonight's guest is a big reader, a lover of all genres, | :00:20. | :00:28. | |
Being a stand up comic he's constantly searching | :00:29. | :00:31. | |
There's another reason for reading(!) | :00:32. | :00:42. | |
And recently becoming a children's author himself, | :00:43. | :00:48. | |
he's been intently reading, how to pose for a promotional photo | :00:49. | :00:52. | |
shoot for his own book without looking slightly ridiculous. | :00:53. | :00:54. | |
LAUGHTER None of those were real! I did pull | :00:55. | :01:06. | |
the faces, yes. You have got this book out, Beyond The Sky. How easy | :01:07. | :01:15. | |
was it for you to get in touch with your in a child? Surprisingly easy, | :01:16. | :01:21. | |
I am very near to it, it is for children of all ages... No, it is | :01:22. | :01:27. | |
for children, this is a children's book, it is to tap into the naked | :01:28. | :01:36. | |
enthusiasm, I know for compact legal reasons lie and I can never appeared | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
together(!), I would do something that feels a lot like, the times I | :01:41. | :01:45. | |
get dragged into my kid's school, whenever Stargazing, to do the talk | :01:46. | :01:54. | |
about what we are doing. Eight to 12-year-old, seven to 14-year-olds, | :01:55. | :01:58. | |
it is about the day-to-day of space, certain body functions, how they | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
work... All that good stuff. You want to explore. This is, how do we | :02:05. | :02:09. | |
explore? Where do we go, how far can we take it? We will talk more about | :02:10. | :02:13. | |
the book, quick question, what games do you remember playing at a chart, | :02:14. | :02:17. | |
outdoor, on the street? I remember... Constant versions of | :02:18. | :02:25. | |
football. Between the two pavements? No, we would throw a ball at the | :02:26. | :02:32. | |
other pavement, and if it... Kerbie! If you threw it at the other | :02:33. | :02:37. | |
person... If you catch it, then they could not move. You know that one. | :02:38. | :02:40. | |
We had those games. Well, Alex Riley went to Radford | :02:41. | :02:44. | |
in Nottingham to meet the playful residents paving the way | :02:45. | :02:46. | |
for a return to the good old days. When I was a kid, me and my mates | :02:47. | :02:59. | |
played in the street, right outside me front door, football, hopscotch, | :03:00. | :03:04. | |
skipping rope, losing your marbles in the gutters... All enjoyable | :03:05. | :03:11. | |
memories from the past. And even asking for your ball back from the | :03:12. | :03:19. | |
neighbour's garden, happy days! But kids are not playing out as much as | :03:20. | :03:23. | |
they used to, which is why people from all over the UK are actively | :03:24. | :03:27. | |
involve making their streets more child and play friendly, doing this | :03:28. | :03:36. | |
through a new grassroots movement. We spoke with the founder. Why did | :03:37. | :03:40. | |
you set this out? Our children needed the chance to play out like | :03:41. | :03:43. | |
we did when we watch old and, to have the freedom to run around and | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
feel part of the neighbourhood. From there, we decided to set it up as an | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
organisation that could support residents anywhere to do it. Why do | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
you think kids have stopped playing out? Kids are -- streets are very | :03:56. | :04:00. | |
dominated by traffic, car drivers develop a sense that the road is | :04:01. | :04:05. | |
theirs... We have found that you have two legally and quite clearly | :04:06. | :04:09. | |
closed the roads to cars for people to take it seriously. Is it better | :04:10. | :04:16. | |
having the road closed? Yeah, yeah! This is better. Normally there is | :04:17. | :04:20. | |
cars going in and out... Every time we are at a good part, we have to | :04:21. | :04:25. | |
stand back and then start it again. If you are keen to run such a | :04:26. | :04:29. | |
session on your street, you cannot just go out and block the road, you | :04:30. | :04:34. | |
need to speak with someone like this councillor, David Trimble, | :04:35. | :04:36. | |
responsible for leisure and culture at Nottingham City Council. The | :04:37. | :04:39. | |
council is telling people, how to play out. We don't want organised | :04:40. | :04:44. | |
fun, what we want is local residents to do it for themselves. We do not | :04:45. | :04:49. | |
want the Council there are, that is why we stand back. Who pays for the | :04:50. | :04:53. | |
cones and the signs and the high visibility jackets? It is free of | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
charge to fill in the form, marginal costs are paid by the council. It | :04:58. | :05:05. | |
was your idea to organise this play out today, what are the kids getting | :05:06. | :05:09. | |
out of it? It is not something that is normally done, these children | :05:10. | :05:12. | |
would not have other places to go and play, of them have never had the | :05:13. | :05:15. | |
opportunity to come out and meet other children. We work together, we | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
unite together, children love going out to play. What happened today | :05:21. | :05:24. | |
brings the community a little bit closer. All the children are having | :05:25. | :05:34. | |
such a fun time. Have you been doing any skipping? I am a little too old | :05:35. | :05:39. | |
for skipping(!) what have you been playing? Skipping! Plate spinning! | :05:40. | :05:47. | |
Free ice! I did not know it was free! Are you enjoying it? CHEERING | :05:48. | :05:59. | |
Can't go wrong! They do it on my street, two hours, every Sunday | :06:00. | :06:05. | |
afternoon, I do the squash. Why not! We should get kerbie going again! | :06:06. | :06:22. | |
Kirby(!) is great, but he is no Mario(!) LAUGHTER | :06:23. | :06:39. | |
I never bring you the breaking edge stuff, there is something to be said | :06:40. | :06:47. | |
for jumping around in an enthusiastic way, somebody who can | :06:48. | :06:50. | |
be plain curious, but I say, yeah, but also... That would be to get | :06:51. | :06:57. | |
young minds going. The fact I love, space starts only 60 miles away! | :06:58. | :07:02. | |
Suddenly it becomes really quite close dog with plenty of journeys we | :07:03. | :07:05. | |
take on a weekly basis which are longer than the journey into space, | :07:06. | :07:08. | |
holidays we have taken which have been much further away. 100 | :07:09. | :07:14. | |
kilometres, the actual official line, and space tourism trips, they | :07:15. | :07:17. | |
do not even go to that, they come back down again. Experience, for 60 | :07:18. | :07:24. | |
miles, you did not say that but! And there is a lot that has to go in. | :07:25. | :07:29. | |
Trying to drag us back down again, it is surprisingly close, even the | :07:30. | :07:39. | |
scale of where we have gone... Where we have gone, which is really | :07:40. | :07:43. | |
close... The Moon is the end of the garden in terms of space, where we | :07:44. | :07:47. | |
are now, that is stepping out to see if you need a cold, that is the | :07:48. | :07:50. | |
level of journey we are taking at the moment! Lots of journeys we | :07:51. | :07:56. | |
cannot do. In the books, we say, we may not be able to do this, but what | :07:57. | :08:00. | |
we need to do is to build robots that will do these journeys. Or, sit | :08:01. | :08:05. | |
here, let them come to us, the most incredible thing about space, the | :08:06. | :08:10. | |
most amazing thing we see, we see from here, looking up, at | :08:11. | :08:13. | |
telescopes, like that comes to us from a long way away, and a long | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
time ago. So much content in the book, we cannot cover it in a single | :08:19. | :08:27. | |
with a little idea, a little plan, like on have I got news for you. | :08:28. | :08:38. | |
Mock the Week! Mock the Week, yes, Mock the Week is what I mean. | :08:39. | :08:43. | |
Sometimes I get mock of the week. That is one that I get sometimes. | :08:44. | :08:46. | |
You did not really need to bang it like that... Let's see what we've | :08:47. | :08:53. | |
got... This occurs in black holes, this term, black holes are dense | :08:54. | :08:57. | |
stars, lapsing onto themselves, and pulling everything in, there is an | :08:58. | :09:01. | |
event horizon around the edge where nothing can escape, if you fall into | :09:02. | :09:05. | |
one, the gravity starts getting really intense at a gradient, so you | :09:06. | :09:09. | |
will get, as you go towards, you will get stretched out! You will | :09:10. | :09:15. | |
become spaghetti. If you need a diet... Really good, I suppose, but | :09:16. | :09:21. | |
you will never see the results. Give it another bash. Perhaps a clapping | :09:22. | :09:31. | |
mechanism? Well-known for spotting comic, fulfilled a wish that a lot | :09:32. | :09:38. | |
of people had that he would be buried on the moon. -- comets. We | :09:39. | :09:41. | |
send people to the moon and they just land there, and his ashes | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
are... Some of his ashes, anyway, were placed in a canister and fired | :09:48. | :09:51. | |
onto the moon. The one person we have buried off the planet. Lie I'm | :09:52. | :09:58. | |
sure will be the next one... Not soon, hopefully, for professor lie. | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
I was going to say, that did sound like a threat. Now, that was | :10:03. | :10:06. | |
spinning before you even touched it, bring that one back to the shop(!) | :10:07. | :10:11. | |
planet nine, there may be a mystery planet within our solar system, | :10:12. | :10:16. | |
because there is a technology to planet 's, but eight acknowledged | :10:17. | :10:19. | |
planet 's, there may be a ninth one, you see a weird orbit of other | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
planets, far away, the only thing you can say, there is a planet like | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
object out there, and we saw it on Stargazing, my God, we need to be | :10:31. | :10:34. | |
able to tell people we found it, we successfully eliminated many | :10:35. | :10:39. | |
candidates. Which is less exciting, as a big reveal, at the end of it. | :10:40. | :10:43. | |
Good science, good signs often involves narrowing things down. Hit | :10:44. | :10:51. | |
the thing again, is there one more? It seems to be rather erratic. I | :10:52. | :10:56. | |
have broken it. If you have just tuned in, this is not mastermind, it | :10:57. | :11:00. | |
is all the content of the new book from Dara O'Briain, and it is very | :11:01. | :11:05. | |
funny as well. I had the scope to do that which, again, lie has to be so | :11:06. | :11:10. | |
serious(!) but I can do some silly jokes as well. The book is out next | :11:11. | :11:15. | |
Thursday, Beyond The Sky, enjoy watching it. | :11:16. | :11:17. | |
The world-renowned activist Malala Yousafzai has said this about | :11:18. | :11:20. | |
"She is our hero. Everyone must read her story. | :11:21. | :11:23. | |
Nujeen Mustafa, known as The Girl From Aleppo, | :11:24. | :11:27. | |
is an extraordinary young woman who became a poster girl | :11:28. | :11:30. | |
in the midst of the Syrian refugee crisis two years ago, | :11:31. | :11:32. | |
after she embarked on an astonishing journey. | :11:33. | :11:34. | |
Her time watching TV in a fifth floor apartment in Aleppo, Syria. | :11:35. | :11:37. | |
Nujeen's family made the decision to leave for Turkey. | :11:38. | :11:40. | |
Born with cerebral palsy, and unable to go to school, she spent much of | :11:41. | :11:44. | |
her time watching television. 16-year-old Nujeen and her | :11:45. | :12:01. | |
older sister Nasrine were trapped, they embarked on a three and a half | :12:02. | :12:08. | |
thousand mile journey for a better, Nujeen was one of the many migrants | :12:09. | :12:13. | |
making the hazardous crossing to Greece in a dinghy, | :12:14. | :12:17. | |
going on to take buses and trains across Europe sleeping in camps, | :12:18. | :12:20. | |
detention centres or sometimes, the open air, with the hope | :12:21. | :12:22. | |
of one day being reunited Over five million Syrians have been | :12:23. | :12:24. | |
displaced since 2011, but Nujeen wants the world | :12:25. | :12:36. | |
to know she is not just Wonderful to see you and hear your | :12:37. | :12:47. | |
story, you made it to Germany, there was a very special reason why, | :12:48. | :12:51. | |
specifically, you wanted to get to Germany. I missed my brother, he was | :12:52. | :13:00. | |
there from... Several months prior, and I just wanted to see him. The | :13:01. | :13:07. | |
second reason, I believed in my right to have another chance in | :13:08. | :13:13. | |
life. This is the wonderful moment when you were reunited with your | :13:14. | :13:14. | |
brother, let's have a look at this. How did you feel, when you saw him | :13:15. | :13:26. | |
for the first time, because he had made it... Must have been | :13:27. | :13:30. | |
incredible. Yes, I just wanted to cuddle him, or something. I had been | :13:31. | :13:36. | |
on this journey for a month, and everything seemed so new, and | :13:37. | :13:40. | |
different, from what I knew. From what I had known, as a girl and to | :13:41. | :13:47. | |
have this familiarity, finally... You have got there, you have done | :13:48. | :13:53. | |
it. It is an incredible feeling. You are 18 now, can we just take you | :13:54. | :13:58. | |
back to when you were 15, in Syria, those feelings you were having, as a | :13:59. | :14:03. | |
teenager, of why you needed to get out there, from your perspective? | :14:04. | :14:11. | |
Well, I needed to get out of there because... There is nothing worse | :14:12. | :14:21. | |
than living with nothing but fear. I also was afraid of oblivion. I know, | :14:22. | :14:26. | |
I know what happened in history, you talk about the politics, the | :14:27. | :14:32. | |
strategy, the military, but you forget the people. 10 million, 15 | :14:33. | :14:35. | |
million, 20 million dead. Just statistics. I was afraid that in 50 | :14:36. | :14:43. | |
years, they would be talking about Russia, and what Bashar al-Assad | :14:44. | :14:47. | |
did, China, how paralysed the international community was. And I | :14:48. | :14:52. | |
would be forgotten. And you said, rightly, you said, the sense of | :14:53. | :14:56. | |
achievement, that you had got to the end of your journey, but the | :14:57. | :15:01. | |
journey, we have a map of it, it was incredible, the countries we went | :15:02. | :15:04. | |
through, when we got to the point where you needed to cross, is it | :15:05. | :15:09. | |
true that you paid the smugglers $1500, to get into a dinghy which | :15:10. | :15:18. | |
was supposed to be for 15 people but 38 people were injured, how did you | :15:19. | :15:25. | |
feel, just before you set sail? I think... We are believers of | :15:26. | :15:27. | |
destiny... Well, we are believers in destiny | :15:28. | :15:40. | |
and we prayed for luck. For me and kind of made sense, like a movie | :15:41. | :15:45. | |
plot, I've everything or nothing! And these pictures that we are | :15:46. | :15:50. | |
seeing of you in your chair, travelling across this incredible | :15:51. | :15:53. | |
landscape, so many people helping you on your journey, what kind of | :15:54. | :15:57. | |
reception where you are getting as you travelled these vast distances? | :15:58. | :16:03. | |
What is she doing in a wheelchair? Do you speak English? The most | :16:04. | :16:10. | |
frequently asked questions, like my Google third, that she speak | :16:11. | :16:22. | |
English. What is the answer? Allen through television. I watch a lot of | :16:23. | :16:27. | |
documentaries. You have written about this, Nujeen, in the book. | :16:28. | :16:33. | |
What do you hope that people like us will take from reading the book? I | :16:34. | :16:40. | |
want them to know that we are people, human, we have our stories. | :16:41. | :16:48. | |
We also had what you have no, job, school, a family, but we have lost | :16:49. | :16:56. | |
it. And am quite aware that the media, makes me feel like refugees | :16:57. | :17:00. | |
are the nightmare that is haunting every decision in Europe. The main | :17:01. | :17:06. | |
messages, don't be afraid. We are not different. We like you. Yeah. We | :17:07. | :17:17. | |
are like you. Do you feel you are in a peaceful place now. There is not a | :17:18. | :17:22. | |
helicopter overhead, I have a school, I feel safe,... It is all | :17:23. | :17:30. | |
documented in this book, an incredible read. You'll stay with us | :17:31. | :17:33. | |
for a while so we won't say goodbye yet. Will talk about your future | :17:34. | :17:40. | |
plans, and amongst them is to become an astronaut. This is perfect, Dara. | :17:41. | :17:47. | |
You will get to test Dara on his knowledge! The big test is yet to | :17:48. | :17:52. | |
come! She's read the book. One fascinating fact, how many birth but | :17:53. | :17:59. | |
you could fit into the sun. It's remarkable, over a million. Just in | :18:00. | :18:02. | |
terms of the mass of the sun. 1.3 million. You can fit 1000 Earth but | :18:03. | :18:16. | |
into the great red storm on Jupiter. You have met your match, Dara! The | :18:17. | :18:24. | |
sun is the subject of our next film. We've gone to shed light | :18:25. | :18:25. | |
on the biggest stars in the art world. The sun, delicate gold, deep | :18:26. | :18:36. | |
pink, with such a palette of colours it is no wonder that this glowing | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
orb has fascinated artists for centuries. As an artist myself I | :18:43. | :18:45. | |
love how the light of the sun can change the mood of a scene in many | :18:46. | :18:49. | |
different ways, and this is one of the reasons why I started painting, | :18:50. | :18:54. | |
myself, to capture those subtle differences. But one artist, hero of | :18:55. | :19:01. | |
mine, took his fascination with the sun to a new level. Born in 1775, | :19:02. | :19:12. | |
Joseph Maher Lord William Turner was one of Britain's most celebrated | :19:13. | :19:14. | |
landscape painters. He revolutionised the way that light | :19:15. | :19:20. | |
was depicted, and now a new exhibition is exploring this great | :19:21. | :19:25. | |
artist's fascination with our nearest star. Nicola is the curator. | :19:26. | :19:32. | |
Before Turner, landscape artists had used the sun as a static backdrop. | :19:33. | :19:37. | |
What he does is to make the sun almost like a protagonist in the | :19:38. | :19:42. | |
painting and how that transforms the entire surface of the picture. That | :19:43. | :19:50. | |
is so revolutionary. And Turner's interest in the sun was scientific | :19:51. | :19:53. | |
as well as artistic. It's interesting because we think of | :19:54. | :19:57. | |
signs about being separate. In his lifetime they would not have been | :19:58. | :20:02. | |
such a boundary between the two. We know that Turner was friends with | :20:03. | :20:08. | |
Michael Faraday, the pioneer of electromagnetism. Michael Faraday | :20:09. | :20:13. | |
seems to have helped Turner mix the pigment that had greater | :20:14. | :20:16. | |
light-fastness whether colour would last longer. He also owns three | :20:17. | :20:20. | |
telescopes himself, he is interested in optics, and colour theory, all | :20:21. | :20:29. | |
quite scientific concerns. At that time one scientist in particular was | :20:30. | :20:33. | |
changing the way that people have viewed the sun. Brendan Owens is an | :20:34. | :20:37. | |
astronomer at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich. In Turner's time | :20:38. | :20:44. | |
William Herschel was one of the most renowned astronomers worldwide, | :20:45. | :20:46. | |
experimenting with new ways of looking at the sun's light to try to | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
unravel its mysteries. It is too dangerous to view directly through a | :20:54. | :20:58. | |
telescope soaked in Turner's day people projected the sun onto a | :20:59. | :21:02. | |
surface like this. What William Herschel did that was revolutionary | :21:03. | :21:07. | |
was finding a way to look at the sun's light directly. Not protecting | :21:08. | :21:11. | |
it but having something in between his telescope tube and his eyepiece, | :21:12. | :21:16. | |
that could help see the sun up close in detail and this may have inspired | :21:17. | :21:22. | |
people like Turner. William Herschel 's discoveries revealed the sun to | :21:23. | :21:27. | |
be far more dynamic and fluid than previously thought. How did this | :21:28. | :21:31. | |
new-found understanding affect paintings by Turner? When you look | :21:32. | :21:36. | |
at the way he paints the sun rather than a flat pale disc it does have a | :21:37. | :21:43. | |
textured, tangible surface. I think, in a way, it is an instance of | :21:44. | :21:49. | |
people arriving at a similar point, through parallel lines, Turner is | :21:50. | :21:53. | |
trying to do in art what William Herschel has been trying to do | :21:54. | :21:58. | |
through science. Turner's paintings of the sun are extraordinary and | :21:59. | :22:03. | |
they have given me an idea for my own Turner inspired landscape in | :22:04. | :22:09. | |
which the sun takes centre stage. Just gradually bringing in some | :22:10. | :22:12. | |
warmth into the sky. I am trying to capture the effect of the light on | :22:13. | :22:19. | |
the water. Each part of the scene catching a bit of that light. Turner | :22:20. | :22:25. | |
used science to better understand a light that most of us take for | :22:26. | :22:31. | |
granted. I just hope my own attempt will do this great artist justice. | :22:32. | :22:38. | |
So there you have it. My own take on a Turner landscape. I am glad I have | :22:39. | :22:43. | |
had the opportunity to shed some light on an artistic genius whose | :22:44. | :22:48. | |
paintings still dazzle us today as they must have done two centuries | :22:49. | :22:49. | |
ago. Beautiful. Mesmerising. Lovely. Now you have swapped books. That | :22:50. | :23:05. | |
lovely art, lovely. I'm sure that whatever was on screen was great but | :23:06. | :23:09. | |
I couldn't help noticing that in your book one of your dedications | :23:10. | :23:15. | |
soars to Yuri Gagarin. So you are big science person as well. For | :23:16. | :23:20. | |
someone who has done an incredible journey what was it about Yuri | :23:21. | :23:24. | |
Gargan in that inspired you? I think to have that first look at how | :23:25. | :23:31. | |
beautiful our home looks, is something that we have lost. With | :23:32. | :23:39. | |
the hope that our home would look like that again inside and out. Wow. | :23:40. | :23:47. | |
Do you have a question for Dara? Yes, do you believe, our world is | :23:48. | :23:54. | |
ruled by two set of different laws. Do you believe in the extensions of | :23:55. | :24:04. | |
the unifying theory... How long do we have? About 30 seconds, Dara! | :24:05. | :24:09. | |
LAUGHTER Do you know,... I think there's a | :24:10. | :24:16. | |
fundamental difference between quantum and gravity in terms of how | :24:17. | :24:21. | |
they operate. This could go on... You carry on. Shall we talk about | :24:22. | :24:31. | |
the beach? Something a bit more on our travel. We go to the beach. What | :24:32. | :24:37. | |
do you pack? Windbreaker maybe? A towel. Bucket and spade. You pack | :24:38. | :24:49. | |
marbles though, widget. Marty Jopson would. This is why, it is epic. | :24:50. | :24:55. | |
I just get bored. Sand castles and stuff don't appeal. What else can | :24:56. | :25:06. | |
you do. Marble racing. Now that is for me. This YouTube smash features | :25:07. | :25:11. | |
one of the longest ever marble runs on sand, a whopping 250 metres. | :25:12. | :25:16. | |
Creating a marble run that big is impressive. So I wanted to create my | :25:17. | :25:26. | |
own but... Super-sized! At 80 metres high, these sand dunes near | :25:27. | :25:31. | |
Bridgend, South Wales, some of the highest in Europe. To pull off a | :25:32. | :25:35. | |
marble run here I need to speak to the who built the original, this | :25:36. | :25:40. | |
24-year-old from Holland. Any tips on me? Do it as fast as you can | :25:41. | :25:53. | |
otherwise be sand is to dry. So I need people to come a rope into help | :25:54. | :26:01. | |
out, and the beach? -- so I need people, but who can I rope in, to | :26:02. | :26:04. | |
help out, on a beach? Welcome everyone to my sand dune and | :26:05. | :26:20. | |
my marble run. The key to this, according to the advice I have | :26:21. | :26:24. | |
taken, is to do it quickly has otherwise it will dry out. Are we | :26:25. | :26:29. | |
already? Let's do it. # I'll be ready #. | :26:30. | :26:37. | |
I start by marking at the root, we want it long but also steep enough | :26:38. | :26:42. | |
to allow gravity to do its work, then the arduous work begins as each | :26:43. | :26:45. | |
team takes one section to dig. So that's about two, three, four, | :26:46. | :27:04. | |
ten metres. Only another 200! It's a gargantuan effort for the teams, | :27:05. | :27:09. | |
especially when you are a team of one. So how are we getting on. The | :27:10. | :27:15. | |
sand is so dry it is caving in quickly. It's really uneven, it goes | :27:16. | :27:22. | |
uphill. Is quite hot, everyone else has shorts on and I'm dressed up. It | :27:23. | :27:27. | |
is going slow. No one said it would be easy or even fun. We are getting | :27:28. | :27:32. | |
there, the final job is to spread the sand with water so it stays | :27:33. | :27:35. | |
compacted. Three hours after we started we set with commentary from | :27:36. | :27:42. | |
Jason Mohammad of BBC sports, it is race time. COMMENTATOR: Thank you, | :27:43. | :27:46. | |
Marty. Each team has their own marble, Marty is in white, the | :27:47. | :27:50. | |
lifeguards are in yellow, the volleyball isn't clear and the ice | :27:51. | :27:54. | |
cream man in a weird sort of mirror thing. Let's play marbles. Of that | :27:55. | :28:01. | |
amazing pace for this breeze busting Marble race. This is adrenaline in a | :28:02. | :28:07. | |
glass ball! The crowd are going wild. He's smiling so hard he could | :28:08. | :28:12. | |
break his mouth. The volleyball is and the sculptors are jostling for | :28:13. | :28:15. | |
first, Marty is so far back he is still in the dressing room. Marty | :28:16. | :28:22. | |
has stopped but is being pushed on, is that within the rules, who knows, | :28:23. | :28:28. | |
there aren't any! Ice cream man flicks it, the volleyball is failed | :28:29. | :28:32. | |
to bounce back and this is never too was race between the sculptors and | :28:33. | :28:35. | |
the lifeguards. But this is now a horse race. And the sculptors have | :28:36. | :28:44. | |
passed the lifeguards. They are used to creating castles, today they are | :28:45. | :28:48. | |
just decimating dreams. They think it's all over and the sculptors it | :28:49. | :28:53. | |
is now! That was completely awesome. It just goes to prove that there is | :28:54. | :28:58. | |
only one way to spend the day on the beach. And that is with a marble | :28:59. | :29:00. | |
run. CHEERING | :29:01. | :29:06. | |
We weren't expecting that, I can't wait to go on the beach now. | :29:07. | :29:08. | |
