0:00:02 > 0:00:04Fancy a strange trip with your CBBC mates?

0:00:04 > 0:00:08- Ed and Andy go coracle racing!' - I might just drift for a bit.

0:00:08 > 0:00:10Naomi's flying economy,

0:00:10 > 0:00:12Barney's feeling a bit chilly.

0:00:12 > 0:00:16And Johny shows us how good he is at hitting a ball!'

0:00:16 > 0:00:17Oh!

0:00:19 > 0:00:22# All over the place

0:00:22 > 0:00:24# All over the place

0:00:24 > 0:00:27# North, south, east, west On a bizarre quest

0:00:27 > 0:00:30# Me and my mates All over the place

0:00:30 > 0:00:32# It's true what you've heard Everything is absurd

0:00:32 > 0:00:35# Whatever we do is strange but true!

0:00:35 > 0:00:38# All over the place

0:00:38 > 0:00:40# All over the place

0:00:40 > 0:00:43# Bet you didn't know this stuff was in the UK

0:00:43 > 0:00:46# But it turns up all over the place. #

0:00:46 > 0:00:49Hey, Ed. Can you guess what we're doing today?

0:00:49 > 0:00:50Whoosh!

0:00:50 > 0:00:52Origami? Paper folding.

0:00:52 > 0:00:54No! It's something to do with flying.

0:00:54 > 0:00:57- Whoosh!- Hang gliding? Not on that, surely!

0:00:57 > 0:01:00Are you winding me up? Look where we are!

0:01:12 > 0:01:14MUSIC: "Loop Be Loop" by the Beach Boys

0:01:14 > 0:01:16# Have you ever been in an airplane?

0:01:16 > 0:01:19# Up above the clouds, there's no rain. #

0:01:19 > 0:01:21So, Valerie, all the planes that we can see here

0:01:21 > 0:01:24were either built or flown from this site?

0:01:24 > 0:01:26That's right, yes.

0:01:26 > 0:01:29# Loop de loop, flip flop Flying in an aeroplane... #

0:01:29 > 0:01:32They must be quite hard to clean, though?

0:01:32 > 0:01:33It's a big job, yes.

0:01:33 > 0:01:35We have lots of volunteers do that.

0:01:35 > 0:01:37BROOM!

0:01:37 > 0:01:40Can you believe these were the sort of planes people flew in 1909?

0:01:40 > 0:01:42Quite small, isn't it?

0:01:42 > 0:01:45It's the smallest plane in the collection.

0:01:45 > 0:01:46It's cool, isn't it?

0:01:46 > 0:01:50- How do you control it? - These two levers.- Is that it?

0:01:50 > 0:01:52I don't think I'd want to try and fly this plane!

0:01:52 > 0:01:55Cockpits today are a bit more complicated, aren't they?

0:01:55 > 0:01:56Just a little bit!

0:01:56 > 0:01:58# Loop de loop, flip flop... #

0:01:58 > 0:02:00Are you supposed to be sitting in there?

0:02:00 > 0:02:03Erm, I think so.

0:02:08 > 0:02:11Which one's the most luxurious?

0:02:11 > 0:02:13Probably, the VC10, over here.

0:02:13 > 0:02:17This was the ruler of Oman's private aeroplane!

0:02:17 > 0:02:20It cost £1.8 million to build,

0:02:20 > 0:02:22back in the 1950s.

0:02:26 > 0:02:31However, it does have one terrifying aspect.

0:02:31 > 0:02:331970s furnishings!

0:02:36 > 0:02:38Wow!

0:02:38 > 0:02:41This is already different to any plane I've ever been on.

0:02:41 > 0:02:43Is this the bathroom?

0:02:43 > 0:02:44It's massive!

0:02:44 > 0:02:46Goes on forever!

0:02:46 > 0:02:48Look, it's got velvet covers. What's this?

0:02:48 > 0:02:50Urgh! Oh, that's the loo.

0:02:50 > 0:02:53What's this? Oh, it's a bidet!

0:02:53 > 0:02:55- What?!- It's got a bidet?!

0:02:55 > 0:02:58- Yeah, on an aeroplane.- I don't even know what you use those for.

0:02:58 > 0:03:02Ah! That's like a boardroom meeting table.

0:03:02 > 0:03:05I don't know anyone with a table as long in their house.

0:03:05 > 0:03:06Let alone in an aeroplane. I know!

0:03:06 > 0:03:08- Look at the size of these chairs. - Wow!

0:03:08 > 0:03:10Well comfy.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13- This is humungous!- I could enjoy a flight, on a chair like this.

0:03:13 > 0:03:15I could definitely get used to this.

0:03:15 > 0:03:16Oh, there's a phone.

0:03:18 > 0:03:20Shall we order something?

0:03:20 > 0:03:24- POSH VOICE:- Hello? Could we have some fizz and crisps, please?

0:03:24 > 0:03:25Thank you!

0:03:25 > 0:03:29This is how I ought to travel from now on.

0:03:29 > 0:03:31Let's see what else is in there.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35You don't get much more luxurious than carpet on a television!

0:03:37 > 0:03:39Wow!

0:03:39 > 0:03:42Look, a bed! With a seatbelt, look!

0:03:42 > 0:03:45- Think he used to fall out of bed a lot?- Gold buckle!

0:03:45 > 0:03:47It's got absolutely everything, this bed.

0:03:47 > 0:03:49I know it's from the '70s, but it's plush!

0:03:49 > 0:03:53It's a massive bed! It has a massive bathroom, massive chairs.

0:03:53 > 0:03:55If there was a surface you could stick a carpet on,

0:03:55 > 0:03:56he'd stick a carpet on it!

0:03:56 > 0:03:59- It's comfy!- I'm staying here. Night!

0:03:59 > 0:04:02Hang on a minute! What's that out there?

0:04:04 > 0:04:06I'm going to have a look at that!

0:04:08 > 0:04:09This is Concorde aeroplane.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17- STEWARDESS VOICE:- Ah, there you are. Where have you been?

0:04:17 > 0:04:21Concorde's boarding. Have you got your tickets? Passports?

0:04:21 > 0:04:23Come on. Out of the way!

0:04:23 > 0:04:24Coming through!

0:04:24 > 0:04:26There's been a terrible mistake.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29I'm not actually going to be flying on this!

0:04:29 > 0:04:32But this is the world's greatest airliner!

0:04:32 > 0:04:34You'd want to fly on it, if you knew how fan-dabi-dozi it is!

0:04:34 > 0:04:37I already know quite a lot about it, actually.

0:04:37 > 0:04:38Oh, really?

0:04:38 > 0:04:42I bet you don't know it flies faster than the speed of sound.

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Yes, I did.

0:04:44 > 0:04:47Oh. Well, I reckon you'd be pretty surprised if I told you

0:04:47 > 0:04:49it flew at twice the speed...

0:04:49 > 0:04:51..of any other aeroplane.

0:04:51 > 0:04:52Oh.

0:04:52 > 0:04:53Droop nose?

0:04:53 > 0:04:55I beg your pardon?

0:04:55 > 0:04:58Ah! Something you didn't know about it.

0:04:58 > 0:05:01The nose of the aeroplane? It moves and down.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04Down on the ground, so the pilot can see where he's going.

0:05:04 > 0:05:07Up in the air, to make the plane more streamlined so it flies faster.

0:05:07 > 0:05:10Well, everyone knows that.

0:05:10 > 0:05:12- I bet you don't know how many were built.- 20.

0:05:12 > 0:05:14- When it was built?- 1969.

0:05:14 > 0:05:16- How many passengers you could fit on it?- 100.

0:05:16 > 0:05:20The time of its record-breaking flight around the world?

0:05:20 > 0:05:2231 hours, 27 minutes, and 49 seconds.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24Including six fuel stops.

0:05:24 > 0:05:28If you know why it's so fantastic, why don't you want to fly on it?

0:05:28 > 0:05:32Because all Concordes stopped flying in 2003.

0:05:32 > 0:05:34Oh!

0:05:35 > 0:05:37I wondered why everyone was taking so long to board.

0:05:46 > 0:05:49I'm so looking forward to meeting Cheryl Cole.

0:05:49 > 0:05:53- I put this special outfit on to impress her.- What special outfit?

0:05:53 > 0:05:55- This special outfit.- Oh, right.

0:05:55 > 0:05:56She must be round here somewhere.

0:05:56 > 0:05:58"Coal, this way". We're getting closer!

0:05:58 > 0:06:01Hang on, Ed. I don't think Cheryl Cole spells her name that way.

0:06:01 > 0:06:03I think we're at a coal mine.

0:06:03 > 0:06:06I'll take this off.

0:06:21 > 0:06:23'Ed and Johny,

0:06:23 > 0:06:27'you have 41 seconds to find out as much as you can about the Big Pit.

0:06:29 > 0:06:31'Ed, you've got Andrew, who's an ex-miner.

0:06:31 > 0:06:34'Johny, you've got Sharon,

0:06:34 > 0:06:37'who works here, in the Big Pit.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41'Whoever finds out the most facts in 41 seconds is the winner.

0:06:41 > 0:06:44'Three, two, one. Go!'

0:06:47 > 0:06:50Hello, Sharon. Why is it called "the Big Pit"?

0:06:50 > 0:06:53It's the width of the shaft. 5.5 metres.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55What's the toughest job in a coal mine?

0:06:55 > 0:06:57Being a miner, being a collier.

0:06:57 > 0:06:58What's that thing over there?

0:06:58 > 0:07:00It's the headgear, which winds the cages up and down.

0:07:00 > 0:07:02What is coal used for?

0:07:02 > 0:07:06- Fires. Steam engines, many years ago. - Good, good!

0:07:06 > 0:07:08- Have you got a souvenir shop? - We have a very good one.

0:07:08 > 0:07:10Why don't you dig a big hole? Why all this shaft business?

0:07:10 > 0:07:12We need to access the coal.

0:07:12 > 0:07:15My second name's Pitts. Can I get a free souvenir?

0:07:15 > 0:07:17You can. Tell them when you get there.

0:07:17 > 0:07:19How deep is the deepest coal mine in Wales?

0:07:19 > 0:07:22Many, many metres!

0:07:22 > 0:07:23It's not very specific, is it?

0:07:23 > 0:07:26- What's your favourite bit about the job?- Things like this, today.

0:07:26 > 0:07:28HOOTER HONKS

0:07:28 > 0:07:32You know what, Shaz? I think we did really well there.

0:07:32 > 0:07:37'And the person that found out the most facts is...

0:07:40 > 0:07:41'..Johny!

0:07:41 > 0:07:44Yes! The Pitts knows the pits -

0:07:44 > 0:07:45Ed Petrie is the pits!

0:07:45 > 0:07:48I was distracted by Andrew's lovely Welsh voice(!)

0:07:48 > 0:07:49Yes! Me and Sharon did it!

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Yes! Finally!

0:07:52 > 0:07:54Stop gloating, Johny!

0:07:54 > 0:07:56Time for you and Ed to dig deeper into the story of the Big Pit.

0:07:56 > 0:07:58Much deeper, in fact.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06She must be very shallow!

0:08:06 > 0:08:09We're going down at about six foot a second.

0:08:09 > 0:08:12Sounds fast, but it's very slow.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Two-thirds of the way down, if you feel a juddering,

0:08:15 > 0:08:18don't worry. It's the brakes,

0:08:18 > 0:08:19so we can slow us down.

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- There you go!- That's the brakes.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23JOHNY LAUGHS

0:08:23 > 0:08:25That was the brakes.

0:08:35 > 0:08:37OK.

0:08:37 > 0:08:39See what coal looks like underground.

0:08:39 > 0:08:41There's a seam of coal.

0:08:41 > 0:08:44And, of course, Welsh coal is very old.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47It is estimated to be 330 million years old.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49- Pretty old.- Yeah.

0:08:49 > 0:08:53This is the first door. Make sure you close it behind you.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56Careful, now. Mind your heads, as you come under the door.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58Careful now. Mind how we're going.

0:08:58 > 0:08:59Mind your head!

0:08:59 > 0:09:02- It's so dark!- I'll show you how dark it is, later on!

0:09:02 > 0:09:04OK?

0:09:04 > 0:09:07I'm going to shut the door. Clear off! Get out of it!

0:09:11 > 0:09:13You know when you say how dark it gets down here?

0:09:13 > 0:09:15Can we turn our lights off, and see?

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Yeah!

0:09:18 > 0:09:21Can you imagine you have a little candle?

0:09:21 > 0:09:23The candle goes out.

0:09:23 > 0:09:25And we're down in the dark.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28Of course, when there were horses down in the mine,

0:09:28 > 0:09:31there used to be thousands of rats running round, was well.

0:09:31 > 0:09:32- Oh!- Ooh!

0:09:32 > 0:09:36Turn the lights back on!

0:09:36 > 0:09:40There's one...

0:09:40 > 0:09:42What would happen if you were down here,

0:09:42 > 0:09:44and you needed the toilet?

0:09:44 > 0:09:46Toilet?

0:09:46 > 0:09:49If you wanted to do the toilet, you'd go back on your own.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51Scratch a hole in the side of the road,

0:09:51 > 0:09:53do whatever you had to do in the hole.

0:09:53 > 0:09:55You bury it, walk away, and leave it.

0:09:55 > 0:09:57That's how we go to the toilet in a mine. It's as easy as that.

0:09:57 > 0:10:00Mind you have a good memory, as well.

0:10:00 > 0:10:02Imagine going back next day, and you scratch that seam....

0:10:02 > 0:10:04BOTH: Oh!

0:10:04 > 0:10:08You don't want that in your sandwiches!

0:10:08 > 0:10:11Almost enough to put you off your lunch, Ed. But not quite.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16I'm glad it's Saturday. Six days every week, underground,

0:10:16 > 0:10:18can start to wear a man down.

0:10:18 > 0:10:21You're telling me. Still, last lunch of the week.

0:10:21 > 0:10:25And my wife's packed a few extra treats in my tommy box.

0:10:25 > 0:10:27Mine, too. Mine, too.

0:10:27 > 0:10:29Of all the lunchbox owners in the land,

0:10:29 > 0:10:31I think I'm the luckiest today.

0:10:32 > 0:10:34Really?

0:10:39 > 0:10:42She's only gone and packed my favourite cheese in a sandwich.

0:10:42 > 0:10:43Bless her.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Would you believe it? I'm having cheese, too!

0:10:46 > 0:10:49A lovely cheese fondue!

0:10:49 > 0:10:50Great(!)

0:10:52 > 0:10:56Ah, wait till you see what I've got up my sleeve for after!

0:10:56 > 0:10:58A delicious apple.

0:10:58 > 0:10:59Sorry, what was that?

0:10:59 > 0:11:01Never mind!

0:11:04 > 0:11:06Now, this is what I'm most looking forward to!

0:11:06 > 0:11:08Every Welsh miner's favourite treat.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Teisen lap.

0:11:10 > 0:11:11Tea-soaked fruitcake.

0:11:11 > 0:11:13My wife's packed me a cake, too!

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Actually, give me a hand, would you?

0:11:21 > 0:11:23Say, "Cheese!"

0:11:23 > 0:11:25BOTH: Caerphilly!

0:11:34 > 0:11:37'Here we are, at a chilli farm.'

0:11:37 > 0:11:39'I'm ready for it, Ed.

0:11:39 > 0:11:42'Come on, sub-zero temperatures. I'm ready for you.'

0:11:42 > 0:11:45'It's a chilli farm, as in...

0:11:45 > 0:11:48'not as in...'

0:11:48 > 0:11:50'Yeah, I knew that.'

0:11:50 > 0:11:53MUSIC: "Hot Hot Hot" by Arrow

0:11:53 > 0:11:57# Feeling hot, hot, hot! #

0:11:57 > 0:12:00'Chillies have been eaten in South America since at least 7,000 BC.

0:12:00 > 0:12:04'At one point, they were used as currency.'

0:12:04 > 0:12:07'Ah, great! This'll save me going to the cash machine.'

0:12:07 > 0:12:09'They grow about 10,000 chilli plants here.

0:12:09 > 0:12:12'With around 100 different varieties.'

0:12:12 > 0:12:15'I love the Red Hot Chilli Peppers.'

0:12:15 > 0:12:16'What, the band?'

0:12:16 > 0:12:19'No, these!'

0:12:19 > 0:12:22# Feeling hot, hot, hot!

0:12:22 > 0:12:24# Feeling hot, hot, hot! #

0:12:24 > 0:12:26'A quick scone break.'

0:12:26 > 0:12:29'Erm, would now be a good time to tell you

0:12:29 > 0:12:33'that they make chilli jam here?'

0:12:33 > 0:12:36BARNEY MOANS

0:12:36 > 0:12:40'If Ed thinks he's getting a piece of this after the jam incident,

0:12:40 > 0:12:42'he's very much mistaken.'

0:12:42 > 0:12:44'Oh, and the chocolate they make here has chillies in, too.'

0:12:44 > 0:12:46# Feeling hot, hot, hot #

0:12:46 > 0:12:51'No use getting hot-headed now, Barney!

0:12:51 > 0:12:54'This is the hottest chilli in the world, right now.

0:12:54 > 0:12:55'It's called Bhut Jolokia.

0:12:55 > 0:12:58'It's 400 times hotter than this hot pepper sauce.'

0:12:58 > 0:13:01# Feeling hot, hot, hot

0:13:01 > 0:13:04# Feeling hot, hot, hot. #

0:13:04 > 0:13:07'Erm, not this time, Ed.

0:13:07 > 0:13:11'I wonder what it would be like if all food was spicy?'

0:13:11 > 0:13:14If all the food in the world was spicy,

0:13:14 > 0:13:17then it would be really hot

0:13:17 > 0:13:20to walk around, in case there was any food on the floor.

0:13:20 > 0:13:24So, people would have to invent ice shoes.

0:13:24 > 0:13:27Thy could have a huge brand of ice sandals, and ice heels.

0:13:27 > 0:13:30But, you'd have to buy one every day.

0:13:30 > 0:13:32They'd melt on the floor, cos it'd be really hot.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35People would go into the ice shops to cool down once they'd had a meal,

0:13:35 > 0:13:38and they'd try and lick the shoes, to cool their tongues down,

0:13:38 > 0:13:41but then their tongues would get stuck to the shoes.

0:13:49 > 0:13:51Johny, what would you say if I told you we're about to visit

0:13:51 > 0:13:55the most successful club team in the world?

0:13:55 > 0:13:59I'd probably say something like, "Oh, yeah! Oh, yeah!" Who is it?

0:13:59 > 0:14:02It's Liverpool, isn't it? We're going to Anfield! Excellent!

0:14:02 > 0:14:05- No, no, no, no, it's... - ..Manchester United!

0:14:05 > 0:14:07They're our rivals, but I like Manchester United...

0:14:07 > 0:14:10Just let me finish. It's not Manchester United.

0:14:10 > 0:14:13Barcelona! Oh, yes, we're going to escape this weather!

0:14:13 > 0:14:16It's none of them! In fact, it's not even a football team.

0:14:16 > 0:14:20- Who could it possibly be? - Cue voiceover man!

0:14:20 > 0:14:24You're at the Kingussie Shinty Club, in the Scottish Highlands.

0:14:24 > 0:14:26The senior team are officially the most successful club team

0:14:26 > 0:14:28in the world!

0:14:30 > 0:14:32Beat that, Man United!

0:14:33 > 0:14:36Shinty is like a cross between hockey, golf and tennis.

0:14:41 > 0:14:44Hello. Someone told me you play for the first team?

0:14:44 > 0:14:45That's right, yeah.

0:14:45 > 0:14:47- We want to play shinty.- Yes, we do.

0:14:47 > 0:14:50We've got sticks. Is that what they're called?

0:14:50 > 0:14:51They're called camans.

0:15:01 > 0:15:05- That's quite a good effort! - It's still rolling.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11Straight line. I'm quite pleased with that!

0:15:11 > 0:15:14- So, you want a penalty shoot-out? - Yeah!

0:15:14 > 0:15:17- Bring it on, to beat Petrie. - I'll go in goal, let's go.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21Ed and Johny, it's time to test your penalty-shooting skills.

0:15:21 > 0:15:24You'll each have three attempts to score against Ryan.

0:15:24 > 0:15:27The winner will get a lovely tray of cakes,

0:15:27 > 0:15:30and the loser will get a lovely brush, to clean the smelly boots.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33Ed, you're up first!

0:15:33 > 0:15:36Wow! That took me by surprise!

0:15:36 > 0:15:38Ryan, what did you stop it for?

0:15:38 > 0:15:42Let's see if he can get another like that.

0:15:42 > 0:15:45That was what I was expecting!

0:15:45 > 0:15:48Oh, the mud nearly went in!

0:15:48 > 0:15:50Didn't even reach the net.

0:15:50 > 0:15:51HE LAUGHS

0:15:53 > 0:15:55Here comes Ed again.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57Yeah, that's what I was expecting.

0:15:57 > 0:15:58Saved it again!

0:15:58 > 0:16:00Not so much a save as a stop.

0:16:02 > 0:16:03Oh!

0:16:03 > 0:16:06Aw! If only the goal were a metre to the right(!)

0:16:06 > 0:16:08- I'm rubbish at this game! - Yeah, you are.

0:16:08 > 0:16:10Oh, dear!

0:16:10 > 0:16:13No-one has scored, and Ed has used up all his shots.

0:16:13 > 0:16:15If Johny can get this in, he'll win!

0:16:15 > 0:16:16Oh, come on, Ryan.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19I think that was a charity case.

0:16:19 > 0:16:22He's doing it for Kingussie!

0:16:22 > 0:16:25This is pathetic.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27It's one point.

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Really?

0:16:29 > 0:16:32I was so pleased to see it finally go in, I cheered...

0:16:32 > 0:16:34You're both pathetic.

0:16:38 > 0:16:42I wonder how much the club's worth, with that track record?

0:16:42 > 0:16:46- AMERICAN ACCENT:- Hey, there! Mind if I sit down?

0:16:46 > 0:16:47You must be the coach?

0:16:47 > 0:16:50- SCOTTISH ACCENT:- Aye, that's me. You wanted to watch the game?

0:16:50 > 0:16:52Thanks, but I already ate.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55I'm Eddie Edson III.

0:16:55 > 0:16:58Multi-billionaire, and sports enthusiast.

0:16:58 > 0:17:00And I want to buy the most successful sporting team

0:17:00 > 0:17:02in the history of the world, ever.

0:17:02 > 0:17:05The Kingussie shinty team!

0:17:05 > 0:17:08What's this, some kind of high-altitude training camp

0:17:08 > 0:17:11to toughen up your pampered sports stars?

0:17:11 > 0:17:13No, this is our ground.

0:17:16 > 0:17:19Ah, ha-ha!

0:17:19 > 0:17:22Ah, you Scotch! What a great sense of humour.

0:17:22 > 0:17:26No, no. Where's your stadium? It's got to be what? 85,000-seater

0:17:26 > 0:17:28with an electric roof and robot cheerleaders.

0:17:28 > 0:17:30Where is it? Round here somewhere?

0:17:30 > 0:17:32No, this is where we play shinty,

0:17:32 > 0:17:36pretty much the same way we've played it for the last 2,000 years.

0:17:36 > 0:17:39Ha-ha! You kill me! You kill me!

0:17:39 > 0:17:42Oh, there's an idea.

0:17:42 > 0:17:45- Come on!- Come on, lads!

0:17:45 > 0:17:47We've got this one! Come on, lads!

0:17:47 > 0:17:50I love it! I want to buy the whole team!

0:17:50 > 0:17:52Uh...a hundred thousand million

0:17:52 > 0:17:55and the use of my gold-plated shoes for a year. What do you say?

0:17:55 > 0:17:57No, we're not for sale, pal.

0:17:57 > 0:18:01I knew I should have bought Manchestershire United.

0:18:01 > 0:18:03Excellent, boys! Brilliant!

0:18:11 > 0:18:14ELECTRO SYNTH MUSIC

0:18:19 > 0:18:23# We're at the Centre For Alternative Technology

0:18:53 > 0:18:57# Then time to start living a little bit greener

0:19:00 > 0:19:04# Finding energy sources that are a little bit cleaner

0:19:04 > 0:19:08# Solar power is energy idea number one

0:19:08 > 0:19:12# Panels can collect power from the sun

0:21:17 > 0:21:19Gahh!

0:21:19 > 0:21:21Yarrgh! Uh, morning.

0:21:21 > 0:21:24Why are you shouting randomly? What are you doing?

0:21:24 > 0:21:27It's why I brought you here today, Andy.

0:21:27 > 0:21:29I challenge you to a coracle race.

0:21:29 > 0:21:32- Rrrgh!- I've heard about that. Have you been training?

0:21:32 > 0:21:34Oh yeah, I've been running up and down,

0:21:34 > 0:21:36doing squat thrusts, climbing trees,

0:21:36 > 0:21:39all with a coracle on my back! Rrgh!

0:21:39 > 0:21:42- You know they go in the water, don't you?- What?- Yeah.

0:21:42 > 0:21:43Coracles are a type of boat.

0:21:44 > 0:21:46He's right, Ed.

0:21:46 > 0:21:48It does look like a turtle shell

0:21:48 > 0:21:49but it is a boat.

0:22:09 > 0:22:10Keep it up, mate.

0:22:10 > 0:22:11BOTH: Gerwyn!

0:22:11 > 0:22:15- Hi, guys.- We want to race coracles and apparently you're our man.

0:22:15 > 0:22:17Well, we can try.

0:22:17 > 0:22:19This is Gerwyn.

0:22:19 > 0:22:24He's going to give the boys a lesson on how to manoeuvre a coracle.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26This is the basic action, OK?

0:22:26 > 0:22:29It's a sculling action. It's a figure of eight.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32- Can you see how that leading edge is pointing forward?- Yeah.

0:22:32 > 0:22:34It'll pull you along.

0:22:34 > 0:22:36- Can you see that? Yeah?- Yep.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45You're going backwards.

0:22:45 > 0:22:47This isn't a good sculler.

0:22:47 > 0:22:50Tell my mother I love her!

0:22:50 > 0:22:53You can't just leave me in this thing! What do I do?

0:22:53 > 0:22:57- Figure of eight! Figure of eight! - Stop saying figure of eight!

0:22:57 > 0:23:00Ed's getting rescued.

0:23:00 > 0:23:02I can't wait to see what he says when he comes back in.

0:23:02 > 0:23:05Thank you very much, kind canoe lady.

0:23:05 > 0:23:07Thank goodness these canoeists were there

0:23:07 > 0:23:10or I would be under the Severn Bridge by now.

0:23:10 > 0:23:11There you go.

0:23:11 > 0:23:13Oh, land. Thank you.

0:23:13 > 0:23:17- You see how much that boat's leaked? - "Figure of eight"(!)

0:23:17 > 0:23:18More like Ed's in a state.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21This doesn't bode well for the race later.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23Let's see how Andy does.

0:23:23 > 0:23:25Whoa, whoa-oh.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27It is actually a bit wobbly.

0:23:27 > 0:23:30That's it. You're a natural.

0:23:30 > 0:23:32HE LAUGHS

0:23:32 > 0:23:35How long have you been teaching people to race coracles?

0:23:35 > 0:23:38- About 20 years, I suppose. - Really?- Yes.

0:23:38 > 0:23:41They must have had some different techniques back then.

0:23:41 > 0:23:42No, it's very much the same.

0:23:42 > 0:23:46Just throw people into the water and hope they survive, really.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50Do you know what? I might just drift for a bit!

0:23:50 > 0:23:53I've just learned to drift. I might just tilt for a bit.

0:23:53 > 0:23:56- He's just found out it's not so easy.- What about turning around?

0:23:56 > 0:23:59Yes, how do you turn around? Figure of eight, Andy! Figure of eight!

0:24:01 > 0:24:04When he first got in, Gerwyn was all, "You're a natural."

0:24:04 > 0:24:06Look at him.

0:24:06 > 0:24:09He's naturally rubbish. Just like me.

0:24:09 > 0:24:10Good.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13In the race, we've got to cross from bank to bank.

0:24:13 > 0:24:16When I got here, that looked pretty easy. It's only about 30 metres

0:24:16 > 0:24:19but the river's moving everyone down this way

0:24:19 > 0:24:22- so I don't know how I'm going to do this.- Probably badly.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30There's three of us in this race. Let's see who we're up against.

0:24:30 > 0:24:32- David? Have you ever done this before?- No.

0:24:32 > 0:24:35- No?- I've done coracling... - You have done it before, then.

0:24:35 > 0:24:38- Well, not in a race. - Stop trying to make us look bad.

0:24:38 > 0:24:40He's done it before. If he beats us, that's why.

0:24:40 > 0:24:43OK, boys, this is the moment of truth.

0:24:43 > 0:24:48Will Ed and Andy be able to scull their way successfully

0:24:48 > 0:24:50across the river and back?

0:24:50 > 0:24:51Get ready. And...

0:24:51 > 0:24:52Go!

0:24:54 > 0:24:55Right, Andy...

0:24:56 > 0:25:00Say hello to the Bristol Channel, cos that's where you're going!

0:25:00 > 0:25:01He is so competitive.

0:25:04 > 0:25:06It's all under control!

0:25:06 > 0:25:07Is it?

0:25:08 > 0:25:12I think they're going on a round trip.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15- Oh-ho!- Round and round trip.

0:25:21 > 0:25:25David's halfway across the river already and on his way back.

0:25:25 > 0:25:27Hurry up, guys!

0:25:27 > 0:25:30I'm just getting taken downstream again.

0:25:34 > 0:25:35And he's there.

0:25:39 > 0:25:41There we go.

0:25:41 > 0:25:44- There you go where?- Halfway there!

0:25:44 > 0:25:48- Oh, look, Andy's caught up with Ed! - Right, I'm going back.- Halfway there.

0:25:48 > 0:25:52- And this is where Ed will get really competitive.- Uh-oh!

0:25:56 > 0:25:57Come on, Andy, you can do it!

0:25:59 > 0:26:01Oh, no, he's catching up with me.

0:26:01 > 0:26:03OK, Ed's going to cheat soon.

0:26:03 > 0:26:05Oh, no! He's gaining on me! No! No!

0:26:07 > 0:26:10I've decided to completely ignore what my teacher said...

0:26:10 > 0:26:12Ah, right. There we go.

0:26:12 > 0:26:14..and just row it like a normal boat.

0:26:16 > 0:26:18Well done, Ed! Round of applause!

0:26:18 > 0:26:20Round of applause!

0:26:27 > 0:26:30Ah! Do you think I've lost the race?

0:26:30 > 0:26:34You might have done.

0:26:34 > 0:26:36These things were invented thousands of years ago,

0:26:36 > 0:26:40why aren't you people using motorboats? Times have moved on.

0:26:40 > 0:26:42- Andy hasn't, though.- Almost there!

0:26:49 > 0:26:53- Yay!- Come here, just...console me.

0:26:53 > 0:26:55That was awful. I don't know what happened!

0:26:55 > 0:26:56I thought I was gaining on you

0:26:56 > 0:27:00- then I was just, "I've got to give up."- You know what, though?

0:27:00 > 0:27:03- We're both still dry, so we're both winners.- Only just.

0:27:03 > 0:27:08And the winner of the All Over The Place trophy is...

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Is me, yeah.

0:27:10 > 0:27:13If I knew that was the trophy, I'd have tried harder.

0:27:13 > 0:27:15- Look at that!- That's nice.

0:27:15 > 0:27:18- Thanks, Gerwyn.- My pleasure. - Have you got any words of...

0:27:18 > 0:27:20- Wisdom?- Wisdom?

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Uh, figure of eight.

0:27:22 > 0:27:25It's all I can remember. Figure of eight.

0:27:25 > 0:27:28You've been watching All Over The Place!
