7:03:03 > 7:03:06- written by Michael Bond.- You look amazing. Give us a little spin.
7:03:06 > 7:03:09- I'm giving you the happy dance. - And I am of course the White Witch.
7:03:09 > 7:03:10I'll give you a spin as well.
7:03:10 > 7:03:13From CS Lewis's book The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe.
7:03:13 > 7:03:16- I like it. You look awesome. - Look how much hair I've got.
7:03:16 > 7:03:19- You genuinely look good.- Yeah.
7:03:19 > 7:03:21Now, if you have been on the Blue Peter website,
7:03:21 > 7:03:24then you'll have noticed that we've been asking you lot at home
7:03:24 > 7:03:27to send in doodle ideas for author and illustrator Chris Riddell,
7:03:27 > 7:03:31who is joined by Blue Peter Book Awards judge Angellica Bell.
7:03:31 > 7:03:33Let's join them with a round of applause.
7:03:33 > 7:03:35APPLAUSE
7:03:35 > 7:03:37- Hi, guys.- Hello. Good to see you.
7:03:37 > 7:03:40I know that we are slightly overdressed, but Chris, Angellica -
7:03:40 > 7:03:42- welcome to Blue Peter.- Thank you.
7:03:42 > 7:03:43Chris, before you even came here,
7:03:43 > 7:03:46we asked you to do a big doodle especially for Blue Peter
7:03:46 > 7:03:49with the theme of "little people doing unbelievable things"
7:03:49 > 7:03:52and I tell you what, you haven't done it. You've done it and a half!
7:03:52 > 7:03:54- Yeah!- I've had fun. I've been drawing all afternoon.
7:03:54 > 7:03:56- Wow!- It's been great.
7:03:56 > 7:03:58And you started off doing the ideas that we sent to you,
7:03:58 > 7:04:01didn't you - so we've got Lindsey's here.
7:04:01 > 7:04:03Riding a unicorn, eating cake!
7:04:03 > 7:04:06- Of course, because what else would I want to do?!- Exactly.
7:04:06 > 7:04:09- On a unicorn, you've got to eat cake.- You must.- Very good idea.
7:04:09 > 7:04:12Now, because I'm a shy, retiring type character, I asked you
7:04:12 > 7:04:15to make me as a wrestler called the Bird Man with my very own wings.
7:04:15 > 7:04:17Absolutely - very useful in a wrestling match,
7:04:17 > 7:04:19particularly with a unicorn.
7:04:19 > 7:04:21And I love my one.
7:04:21 > 7:04:23I asked for a cute otter eating a yummy cake.
7:04:23 > 7:04:26Absolutely, and here you are, Angellica. In the water.
7:04:26 > 7:04:29- You look so...you look cute. - Do I look cute?
7:04:29 > 7:04:31- You look like a cute little... - Let me finish.
7:04:31 > 7:04:34Brilliant. But we're not the only ones who gave you suggestions.
7:04:34 > 7:04:36We've had loads from viewers, and one we particularly liked
7:04:36 > 7:04:39- was a sparkly pixie at the corner there.- Oh, she's fun.
7:04:39 > 7:04:42- She's really cute.- Isn't she lovely? And very sparkly, very sparkly.
7:04:42 > 7:04:46- And she's from Topaz Rocking Swan. Love the name.- Rock on!- Excellent.
7:04:46 > 7:04:49Another we like is an owl wearing roller skates. Where's that?
7:04:49 > 7:04:51- There he is.- Oh, right in the middle. That's so good.
7:04:51 > 7:04:53Yes, skating through the forest, as owls do.
7:04:53 > 7:04:56Thank you very much to Cream Silky Llama. Thank you.
7:04:56 > 7:04:58Lovely, excellent.
7:04:58 > 7:05:01Now, if Chris has inspired you to get doodling,
7:05:01 > 7:05:03jump on to the Blue Peter website
7:05:03 > 7:05:06for all the tips and everything in between which you need.
7:05:06 > 7:05:08Now, Chris and Angellica,
7:05:08 > 7:05:11- it is actually by no...- You can't speak!- It's very interesting!
7:05:11 > 7:05:13- Yeah, move that nose, yeah. - Is that better?
7:05:13 > 7:05:15- There you go, there you go. - But I look better like that.
7:05:15 > 7:05:17I'm going to keep it like that.
7:05:17 > 7:05:19We'll be back for the Blue Peter Book Award a little bit later on.
7:05:19 > 7:05:21We're loving books today, but of course,
7:05:21 > 7:05:23we also love films here on Blue Peter
7:05:23 > 7:05:25and if you love Jurassic World or War Horse,
7:05:25 > 7:05:27or any of his classics, you are going to love this -
7:05:27 > 7:05:30I'm going to hand over to the incredible Steven Spielberg.
7:05:30 > 7:05:32- ALL:- Whoo!
7:05:32 > 7:05:35When you open a book, you can be transported to any place,
7:05:35 > 7:05:38any time, anywhere. In the BFG,
7:05:38 > 7:05:41a young girl named Sophie is taken on an incredible adventure.
7:05:41 > 7:05:44She becomes friends with a Big Friendly Giant.
7:05:44 > 7:05:47From there, she chases dreams, tricks giants,
7:05:47 > 7:05:48and even meets a queen.
7:05:48 > 7:05:50You know, a book can be like your very own BFG,
7:05:50 > 7:05:53taking you to places you've never imagined.
7:05:54 > 7:05:58Wow! He is such an incredible man.
7:05:58 > 7:06:01And we're going to be asking you to dream big
7:06:01 > 7:06:03for our brand-new Blue Peter competition,
7:06:03 > 7:06:06and guess who's going to be on the judging panel?
7:06:06 > 7:06:10- Tell me, Linds!- None other than Steven Spielberg himself.
7:06:10 > 7:06:12How incredible is that?!
7:06:12 > 7:06:14So make sure you keep watching.
7:06:14 > 7:06:16That is going to be so exciting.
7:06:16 > 7:06:17Linds, that's off the charts.
7:06:17 > 7:06:19Something else which is off the charts -
7:06:19 > 7:06:21where have you been living for the last year?
7:06:21 > 7:06:24- Manchester? - So unless it's been in space,
7:06:24 > 7:06:27you will know about our Blue Peter friend, British astronaut Tim Peake.
7:06:27 > 7:06:28Check this out.
7:06:31 > 7:06:3611.03am on 15 December 2015.
7:06:36 > 7:06:39Major Tim Peake blasts off, complete with his mission patch,
7:06:39 > 7:06:41designed by Blue Peter viewer Troy,
7:06:41 > 7:06:44to take his place on the International Space Station,
7:06:44 > 7:06:49where he'll be living and working for a total of six months.
7:06:51 > 7:06:56Right now, Tim Peake is orbiting the Earth 250 miles that way,
7:06:56 > 7:07:00and the people that look after him - well, they're just in there.
7:07:01 > 7:07:03Oh, did I not say I'm in Germany?
7:07:03 > 7:07:06Yeah, and that that is the control centre for Tim Peake's mission.
7:07:06 > 7:07:08I probably should have said that, shouldn't I?
7:07:08 > 7:07:11And because it's Blue Peter, we've got unique access to go inside
7:07:11 > 7:07:13and have a look around and see how it all works
7:07:13 > 7:07:14and you're invited as well.
7:07:14 > 7:07:17Did I not say that? I probably should have done.
7:07:17 > 7:07:18It's good, isn't it?
7:07:18 > 7:07:22Since he lifted off, Britain has been gripped by Tim's mission,
7:07:22 > 7:07:24and I am too.
7:07:24 > 7:07:25So to be given the chance to see
7:07:25 > 7:07:29behind the scenes of mission control is a real privilege.
7:07:29 > 7:07:32Now, you may recognise this place from all the space movies
7:07:32 > 7:07:36that you've seen, but this isn't a movie set. This is the real thing.
7:07:36 > 7:07:39This is the control centre for the Columbus module
7:07:39 > 7:07:44that Tim Peake is inside right now in space.
7:07:44 > 7:07:46The International Space Station speeds around the Earth
7:07:46 > 7:07:51at over 17,000mph, so it takes a team of flight directors down on
7:07:51 > 7:07:55the ground to make sure everything runs smoothly in his module.
7:07:55 > 7:07:58And the first person I'm going to meet is one of them.
7:07:59 > 7:08:01Can you tell us what a flight director does?
7:08:01 > 7:08:03Yeah, I mean, it's a pretty interesting
7:08:03 > 7:08:05and cool thing that we are doing here.
7:08:05 > 7:08:07We are in control of this module,
7:08:07 > 7:08:10so we are responsible to maintain everything which is going on
7:08:10 > 7:08:13in this module and we are also telling Tim
7:08:13 > 7:08:16what kind of experiments he has to do - that is our job.
7:08:16 > 7:08:19This is the position controlling actually the module,
7:08:19 > 7:08:22so sending commands, opening valves,
7:08:22 > 7:08:25controlling the temperature that astronauts are feeling -
7:08:25 > 7:08:29that the atmosphere, the oxygen that they are breathing is OK.
7:08:29 > 7:08:34On 15 January this year, Tim Peake became the first British European
7:08:34 > 7:08:38Space Agency astronaut to perform what the guys here call an EVA -
7:08:38 > 7:08:41or a spacewalk, to you and me.
7:08:41 > 7:08:45When they do a spacewalk, that then goes somewhere else, doesn't it?
7:08:45 > 7:08:48Yeah. I mean, this is being controlled from Houston,
7:08:48 > 7:08:52which is in America, and that is the main control centre
7:08:52 > 7:08:54for the space station.
7:08:54 > 7:08:56Tim and his crewmate had to stop their spacewalk early
7:08:56 > 7:09:00because one of their helmets was leaking, so things do go wrong.
7:09:00 > 7:09:03And it's the mission director who is responsible for making sure
7:09:03 > 7:09:07Tim is OK. For the Columbus module, that's Bertie.
7:09:07 > 7:09:09- So you're in charge?- Yes, I am.
7:09:09 > 7:09:11Are you happy with what he's been doing in space?
7:09:11 > 7:09:15Oh, he's fantastic. He's a fantastic team worker.
7:09:15 > 7:09:17He's always in a good mood.
7:09:17 > 7:09:20He has all these many tasks he has to do -
7:09:20 > 7:09:23each minute is planned out on his day.
7:09:23 > 7:09:25How do you communicate with Tim?
7:09:25 > 7:09:27Cos it's not like you can just pick up the phone.
7:09:27 > 7:09:32But he can. When there's a certain coverage with the satellites, he can
7:09:32 > 7:09:36pick up the phone and call me on my mobile and he calls me in my office.
7:09:36 > 7:09:39- That's really cool, isn't it?- Yeah. - To get a call from space.- Yes.
7:09:42 > 7:09:44Every Thursday, around midday,
7:09:44 > 7:09:46the control centre here in Munich gets in touch with
7:09:46 > 7:09:49the International Space Station to transfer information
7:09:49 > 7:09:51and just make sure everyone is OK.
7:09:51 > 7:09:53Wait a minute - today's Thursday.
7:09:54 > 7:09:55It's around midday.
7:09:58 > 7:10:01'I can't quite believe I'm saying this, but the team here have
7:10:01 > 7:10:04'allowed me to sit in on one of their crew conferences.'
7:10:04 > 7:10:06'Yes, this is a Houston contact.
7:10:06 > 7:10:08'Are you ready for the crew conference?'
7:10:08 > 7:10:09We are ready.
7:10:09 > 7:10:12'I don't know why, but as we wait for the call to come through,
7:10:12 > 7:10:14'I'm really nervous.
7:10:14 > 7:10:16'And then, all of a sudden,
7:10:16 > 7:10:20'I get the once-in-a-lifetime chance to talk to space.'
7:10:20 > 7:10:22'Munich Station on space-to-ground 4.'
7:10:22 > 7:10:25Tim, it's Barney. It's so good to see you. How are you?
7:10:25 > 7:10:27Hello, Barney. And hi to Blue Peter.
7:10:27 > 7:10:28How is it up there?
7:10:28 > 7:10:32Barney, life on board is wonderful. We've already had two EVAs,
7:10:32 > 7:10:34one of which I was able to get outside
7:10:34 > 7:10:38the space station on, being kept very busy, and of course,
7:10:38 > 7:10:39when we do get the odd
7:10:39 > 7:10:42five minutes break, just going to the windows
7:10:42 > 7:10:44and looking down on planet Earth is absolutely spectacular.
7:10:44 > 7:10:47Obviously, you're wearing a Blue Peter badge.
7:10:47 > 7:10:50We would love to see what would happen to that badge if it was to be
7:10:50 > 7:10:52in an antigravity environment. Can you float that for us?
7:10:52 > 7:10:55I've got another badge here for you, actually, another Blue Peter badge.
7:10:55 > 7:10:59So, I'm going to put that up by the camera and show you what happens.
7:10:59 > 7:11:01It's just going to float around.
7:11:01 > 7:11:03Now, the thing with small objects, like this,
7:11:03 > 7:11:07that don't have much mass, is they float around really easily.
7:11:07 > 7:11:10You know, you let go of them for two minutes and look away
7:11:10 > 7:11:13and they're gone, they'll go all over the place.
7:11:13 > 7:11:15Listen, it's been so good to speak to you. And, yeah,
7:11:15 > 7:11:17- we'll see you when you land. Thanks a lot.- Fantastic, Barney.
7:11:17 > 7:11:19Great speaking to you, too. And, yeah,
7:11:19 > 7:11:22look forward to seeing you when I get back. Bye now.
7:11:25 > 7:11:28I think that must be one of the coolest things ever.
7:11:28 > 7:11:32I've never seen Barney so happy and giddy. Do you know what I mean?
7:11:32 > 7:11:35OK, now it's time for the Blue Peter Book Awards 2016.
7:11:35 > 7:11:37We are so excited. And to help us celebrate,
7:11:37 > 7:11:40we are joined by top judge Angellica Bell and this lovely lot. Hello.
7:11:40 > 7:11:43CHEERING
7:11:43 > 7:11:46Hello, guys. Welcome to Blue Peter. Welcome to the studio.
7:11:46 > 7:11:49Now, Angelica, you and some of the other judges,
7:11:49 > 7:11:52you had to whittle down that shortlist to just six books.
7:11:52 > 7:11:55- How did you do it? Was it tough? - It was really tricky.
7:11:55 > 7:11:57Obviously, all the books that we read were fantastic.
7:11:57 > 7:12:00They each had their own themes and their own characters
7:12:00 > 7:12:03and they were brilliant, but we had to whittle it down.
7:12:03 > 7:12:05Three books in Best Story Book,
7:12:05 > 7:12:07three books in Best Book With Facts.
7:12:07 > 7:12:10And once we had those, they were sent off to 200 children
7:12:10 > 7:12:12up and down the country, some of whom are with us now.
7:12:12 > 7:12:15Thank you for being here. And they, really, had the hard job
7:12:15 > 7:12:17of deciding the winner. So, let's ask you.
7:12:17 > 7:12:22- How was it judging?- I think the best thing about judging was that
7:12:22 > 7:12:25you got to say your own opinion, instead of keeping it concealed.
7:12:25 > 7:12:27Yeah, OK.
7:12:27 > 7:12:30And what about you, was it difficult picking a favourite?
7:12:30 > 7:12:32I really enjoyed judging the Book Awards, but the hardest
7:12:32 > 7:12:35- thing was narrowing six books down to two.- We want to find out who
7:12:35 > 7:12:38- the winners are, don't we?- Yes.- Yes. - Let's find them out.
7:12:38 > 7:12:40Blue Peter bookworms, thank you for being here.
7:12:40 > 7:12:43There are, of course, two awards that are going to be given out.
7:12:43 > 7:12:44So, to help us do that,
7:12:44 > 7:12:47who better than children's Laureate's Chris Riddell?
7:12:47 > 7:12:50CHEERING

7:12:58 > 7:13:01- Some pretty great books. - Brilliant books, lovely books.- Yeah.
7:13:01 > 7:13:04And you're going to help us read out the winners, now, aren't you?
7:13:04 > 7:13:07- Looking forward to it. - Let's get to it. OK, the nominees
7:13:07 > 7:13:09for Best Story Book are...

7:13:57 > 7:14:00Oh, wow.. Amazing, fantastic.

7:15:18 > 7:15:21It's amazing. I loved Blue Peter when I was a kid,
7:15:21 > 7:15:24I now watch it with my own kids.
7:15:24 > 7:15:28The fact that children voted for this makes it incredibly special.

7:15:51 > 7:15:53Chris, you didn't know we were going to do this,
7:15:53 > 7:15:55because we didn't do it in rehearsal. So, this is a bit
7:15:55 > 7:15:58of a shock to you, but, of course, you have inspired
7:15:58 > 7:16:01so many kids to get reading, to love books and to love illustration.
7:16:01 > 7:16:05And we really take our hats off to you here on Blue Peter.
7:16:05 > 7:16:08Our highest accolade is, of course, the Blue Peter Gold badge.

7:16:14 > 7:16:17- Congratulations.- Oh, my goodness. This is such an honour.
7:16:17 > 7:16:22This is absolutely the honour of a lifetime, I've got to say.
7:16:22 > 7:16:26I've watched Blue Peter ever since I was very, very small
7:16:26 > 7:16:29and this is lovely. I'm going to wear this with pride. Thank you.
7:16:29 > 7:16:31Well, you've earned it. A round of applause for Chris.
7:16:31 > 7:16:33CHEERING
7:16:33 > 7:16:35Well done. Congratulations.
7:16:35 > 7:16:37Well, I don't know how we're going to top that,
7:16:37 > 7:16:38but we are going to have a go.
7:16:38 > 7:16:41Here with the all-singing, all-dancing performance,
7:16:41 > 7:16:43we've got the cast of Mary Poppins - The Musical.
7:16:43 > 7:16:45I've got one word for you all, cos it's Book Day -

7:17:02 > 7:17:05- That's not a word! - Of course it's a word.
7:17:05 > 7:17:07And unless I'm very much mistaken,
7:17:07 > 7:17:11I think it's going to prove a rather useful one.
7:17:11 > 7:17:15# When trying to express oneself it's frankly quite absurd
7:17:15 > 7:17:19# To leaf through lengthy lexicons to find the perfect word
7:17:19 > 7:17:24# A little spontaneity keeps conversation keen
7:17:24 > 7:17:32# You need to find a way to say precisely what you mean

7:17:36 > 7:17:41# Even though the sound of it is something quite atrocious

7:17:59 > 7:18:02# The druids could've carved it on their mighty monoliths
7:18:02 > 7:18:03# That's right
7:18:03 > 7:18:07# The Ancient Greeks I'm certain would have used it in their myths
7:18:07 > 7:18:11# I'm sure the Roman Empire only entered the abyss
7:18:11 > 7:18:16# Because its Latin scholars never had a word like this

7:20:43 > 7:20:45CHEERING
7:20:49 > 7:20:52Wow, guys, that was absolutely amazing.
7:20:52 > 7:20:53Come on over for a little chat.
7:20:53 > 7:20:56Now, Zizi, that was the incredible Mary Poppins.
7:20:56 > 7:20:58Everyone kind of knows it, but for those who've forgotten
7:20:58 > 7:21:00the story, tell us a little bit about it.
7:21:00 > 7:21:04Well, there's a family in Edwardian times and they've kind of
7:21:04 > 7:21:06forgotten how to be happy and are having a bit of a hard time.
7:21:06 > 7:21:09So the magical Nanny Mary Poppins comes to save the day.
7:21:09 > 7:21:12- And, Madeline, you play Jane Banks, that's right, isn't it?- Yes.
7:21:12 > 7:21:14How do you remember all those letters?
7:21:14 > 7:21:17That looks impossible, but you all did it very well.
7:21:17 > 7:21:19Well, we started learning them in the first week of rehearsals
7:21:19 > 7:21:22- and we still have to practise them a lot.- I bet.
7:21:22 > 7:21:25That is tough, but you did it very well.
7:21:25 > 7:21:28And Regan, you play Michael Banks. Is it hard to saying and dance
7:21:28 > 7:21:30and do all of that at the same time?
7:21:30 > 7:21:33It's quite difficult, but we have a lot of practice in rehearsals
7:21:33 > 7:21:36and it's really fun, so it makes it OK.
7:21:36 > 7:21:39Yeah, it looks like you have a lot of fun.
7:21:39 > 7:21:41Just quickly, Matt, you're holding something very special there,
7:21:41 > 7:21:44- aren't you?- Yes, the show is actually based on a series of books,
7:21:44 > 7:21:47written by PL Travers. And we've got some illustrations in here also.
7:21:47 > 7:21:49- Wow.- Yeah, it was written in 1934.
7:21:49 > 7:21:52And that's one of the first publications. That's so exciting
7:21:52 > 7:21:55to have that here. It's worth thousands of pounds as well,
7:21:55 > 7:21:56- very special on World Book Day. - Yeah.
7:21:56 > 7:21:59Guys, thank you so, so much for coming in.
7:21:59 > 7:22:01And, on to something a little bit different.
7:22:01 > 7:22:03If you're wondering how I could cross the sea
7:22:03 > 7:22:05in a giant inflatable ball, you're about to find out.
7:22:05 > 7:22:09It needed a big helping hand from the RNLI and, luckily, they were
7:22:09 > 7:22:12right there throughout my epic Wave Runner challenge
7:22:12 > 7:22:14for Sport Relief.
7:22:15 > 7:22:18Last week on Blue Peter,
7:22:18 > 7:22:21I was set my epic Sport Relief challenge to run across
7:22:21 > 7:22:26the Irish Sea, something that's never been done before.
7:22:26 > 7:22:31Our top engineers created my souped up sea-crossing machine.
7:22:31 > 7:22:34Professor Greg White set me an intensive training schedule.
7:22:34 > 7:22:36Keep driving, keep driving.
7:22:36 > 7:22:40And I took the first steps in my incredible craft.
7:22:40 > 7:22:43SHE SCREAMS
7:22:43 > 7:22:46This is the Wave Runner.
7:22:46 > 7:22:49Being on the water for the first time,
7:22:49 > 7:22:52it became clear that my training needed to change.
7:22:52 > 7:22:54'So far, I've been working on my legs,
7:22:54 > 7:22:58'but now I know I'll rely just as much on my arms.'
7:22:58 > 7:23:00This is horrible.
7:23:00 > 7:23:02# Now if you know what I know you You need to work it out. #
7:23:02 > 7:23:05'If I'm to run over 20 miles across the sea,
7:23:05 > 7:23:08'I need hit the gym virtually every day.'
7:23:08 > 7:23:09SHE SIGHS
7:23:09 > 7:23:11- Good to go?- Yeah.- Fast hands.
7:23:11 > 7:23:14'Doing exercises that build up every muscle in my body.'
7:23:14 > 7:23:16I feel sick.
7:23:16 > 7:23:20'And that means pushing myself harder than I ever have before.
7:23:20 > 7:23:24'So, that's me, but what about my wave-running machine?'
7:23:24 > 7:23:27It's time for its next test, sea conditions.
7:23:27 > 7:23:30But we're not quite ready for the open ocean yet.
7:23:30 > 7:23:32If I'm going to be a waverunner, I'm going to need waves
7:23:32 > 7:23:36and that's why I've come here, to the RNLI Sea Survival Centre.
7:23:36 > 7:23:39You know what? I think I've found my waves.
7:23:40 > 7:23:43The Royal National Lifeboat Institution is the charity
7:23:43 > 7:23:45that saves lives at sea.
7:23:45 > 7:23:48Their teams of highly trained volunteers have rescued
7:23:48 > 7:23:51over 141,000 people.
7:23:52 > 7:23:55Today, their lifeguards are helping us to understand how my ball
7:23:55 > 7:23:59will react to open water in this special pool, which mimics the sea.
7:23:59 > 7:24:02We're hoping to see what happens with wavy conditions
7:24:02 > 7:24:04and things like that.
7:24:04 > 7:24:06And see if the ball actually capsizes or not.
7:24:06 > 7:24:08Hopefully, fingers crossed, it's all OK.
7:24:11 > 7:24:15So, this is it, first time with the wave machine on.
7:24:15 > 7:24:17Ooh!
7:24:17 > 7:24:21I'm really bobbing up and down now.
7:24:21 > 7:24:24'Already, the difference to calm water is incredible,
7:24:24 > 7:24:26'and I've got to move in this.'
7:24:26 > 7:24:28OK, here we go.
7:24:28 > 7:24:30It's moving.
7:24:30 > 7:24:32I'm all over the place. Argh!
7:24:32 > 7:24:35'It's so tough to keep my balance
7:24:35 > 7:24:38'and these waves are only one metre high.'
7:24:38 > 7:24:40Whoa! Oh, my goodness.
7:24:40 > 7:24:43'I manage to get to the end of the pool,
7:24:43 > 7:24:45'but it's really taken it out of me.'
7:24:45 > 7:24:48Do you know what? That was near impossible.
7:24:48 > 7:24:51Those one-metre waves are tough.
7:24:51 > 7:24:55And if it was like that for the real challenge, it's not happening.
7:24:55 > 7:24:58'And that's not all. Part of my challenge
7:24:58 > 7:25:00'could take place at night,
7:25:00 > 7:25:03'so it's time to turn the lights out.'
7:25:03 > 7:25:05Oh, whoa!
7:25:05 > 7:25:07This is terrifying.
7:25:07 > 7:25:09SHE SCREAMS
7:25:09 > 7:25:11'I can barely see where I'm going,
7:25:11 > 7:25:14'but I somehow manage a length of the pool.'
7:25:14 > 7:25:17I did it!
7:25:17 > 7:25:21The RNLI test has shown us we are far from ready for the sea.
7:25:21 > 7:25:24So whilst the engineers return the waverunner to the workshop
7:25:24 > 7:25:27for further improvements, it's back to the gym for me.
7:25:29 > 7:25:34And a few weeks later, we're ready to train on the water again.
7:25:34 > 7:25:36OK, here we go.
7:25:38 > 7:25:40'At first, I feel like I'm doing OK.
7:25:42 > 7:25:45'But then the winds pick up and it makes it really hard
7:25:45 > 7:25:47'for me to keep my rhythm.'
7:25:49 > 7:25:51Urgh!
7:25:51 > 7:25:53'Try as I might, I just can't keep it going.'
7:25:53 > 7:25:55I'm so tired.
7:25:56 > 7:25:59'And the frustration really gets to me.'
7:26:01 > 7:26:05I think I just thought today was going to be a lot easier than it is.
7:26:05 > 7:26:08I'm drenched in there and cold and I can't get it to go.
7:26:08 > 7:26:13I don't see how I'm meant to get from one country to another in that.
7:26:13 > 7:26:15It doesn't seem possible.
7:26:15 > 7:26:17'I'm at an all-time low.'
7:26:17 > 7:26:20'So the Sport Relief team arrange for me
7:26:20 > 7:26:23'to meet one of my heroes, TV presenter Davina McCall.'
7:26:23 > 7:26:25In 2014, Davina ran,
7:26:25 > 7:26:30swam and cycled an incredible 500 miles for Sport Relief.
7:26:30 > 7:26:32How did she find the strength to keep going?
7:26:32 > 7:26:35I ask her over a cup of tea.
7:26:35 > 7:26:38I found I had a lot more in me than I thought I did
7:26:38 > 7:26:41and that's been an amazing journey for me.
7:26:41 > 7:26:43I think that's quite a cool thing to discover, isn't it?
7:26:43 > 7:26:46Why do we do Sport Relief?
7:26:46 > 7:26:48I think I've just been to see some amazing projects
7:26:48 > 7:26:51and I've seen the difference that it makes.
7:26:51 > 7:26:54You help one person, then they grow up having a better life
7:26:54 > 7:26:56and they can, in turn, help others and help others
7:26:56 > 7:26:59- and it's like a mushroom effect. - Yeah.
7:26:59 > 7:27:02So, when we're raising, or you're raising money, at home
7:27:02 > 7:27:04all of it goes to good causes and it really,
7:27:04 > 7:27:09massively makes a difference. And that's what keeps me going.
7:27:09 > 7:27:11- Really, really, really good luck. - Thank you.
7:27:11 > 7:27:15- We'll be thinking of you.- Will you come with me and do it for me?
7:27:15 > 7:27:17- No.- OK, that's fine.
7:27:17 > 7:27:20Meeting Davina has genuinely inspired me.
7:27:20 > 7:27:23So it's back to the water to give it another go.
7:27:26 > 7:27:30I dig deep and remember Davina's words.
7:27:30 > 7:27:34Slowly but surely, step by step, I'm starting to find my rhythm.
7:27:38 > 7:27:41Finally, after two months, I am wave-running.
7:27:42 > 7:27:45We are flying, Lindsey, fast as ever.
7:27:45 > 7:27:47I actually got quite into it then.
7:27:47 > 7:27:51I managed to just switch off and just go into waverunner mode.
7:27:51 > 7:27:53It was quite nice. Everything feels possible.
7:27:57 > 7:28:00Next week, my gruelling training regime catches up with me.
7:28:00 > 7:28:02Ow, that's really bad.
7:28:02 > 7:28:05And I finally face the sea for the first time.
7:28:05 > 7:28:07It is scaring me.
7:28:07 > 7:28:10Can I become the waverunner?
7:28:12 > 7:28:14So, make sure you're watching next week, if you want to find out.
7:28:14 > 7:28:17And I just want to take one second to thank everybody at home,
7:28:17 > 7:28:20all the Blue Peter viewers and the fans for giving me
7:28:20 > 7:28:22all those good luck messages when I did it last week.
7:28:22 > 7:28:25Thank you so much. I did read all of them on the Blue Peter website
7:28:25 > 7:28:27and they meant the world. Thank you.
7:28:27 > 7:28:29It is an unbelievable Sports Relief challenge.
7:28:29 > 7:28:32It's not just on Blue Peter that Sport Relief challenges happen.
7:28:32 > 7:28:34- There's one taking place behind us as we speak.- Right behind us.
7:28:34 > 7:28:37And to help explain more is all-time top Premier League
7:28:37 > 7:28:40goal-scorer Alan Shearer and Welsh football legend Robbie Savage.
7:28:40 > 7:28:42- Good intros, guys?- Very good.
7:28:42 > 7:28:45We've met somewhere before, haven't we?
7:28:45 > 7:28:48- Alan, I'll start with yourself, what is going on?- 57 hours,
7:28:48 > 7:28:52from nine o'clock this morning until 6.15 on Saturday evening,
7:28:52 > 7:28:56five-a-side football, over 1,000 people.
7:28:56 > 7:28:59Robbie's done eight and a half hours now. I've done three or four,
7:28:59 > 7:29:02I think. My 12-hour stint has to come tomorrow,
7:29:02 > 7:29:05from eight till eight. Robbie's struggling a bit at the minute.
7:29:05 > 7:29:08His back's hurting and my knees are hurting, but we're doing OK.
7:29:08 > 7:29:10I actually had a go myself earlier. I embarrassed myself,
7:29:10 > 7:29:13- I'm going to be completely honest. - Let's have a look.
7:29:13 > 7:29:15- Here's some of the footage now. There I am there.- You got stuck in.
7:29:15 > 7:29:17Stuck in is the word I'd use.
7:29:17 > 7:29:20Oh, that's you, I didn't recognise you with your hat on.
7:29:20 > 7:29:22THEY LAUGH
7:29:22 > 7:29:24- You did well. Well done. - So, you're talking about injuries,
7:29:24 > 7:29:27you're talking about feeling a little bit fatigued,
7:29:27 > 7:29:30can we do it, can we make it to the finish line? Hopefully, today,
7:29:30 > 7:29:33- yeah.- As Alan said, I'm eight and a half hours in. No, six hours in,
7:29:33 > 7:29:36- I still got the...- You've lost track.- Yeah, I'm so tired.
7:29:36 > 7:29:38My back is killing me. We're just walking around now.
7:29:38 > 7:29:41But we started off really bright, really aggressive, didn't we?
7:29:41 > 7:29:44Running around like we were in the youth team still,
7:29:44 > 7:29:47I didn't realise we had another eight hours to go this morning.
7:29:47 > 7:29:48- I'm paying for it now.- Oh, dear.
7:29:48 > 7:29:50But you think you can make it to the finish line?
7:29:50 > 7:29:53Of course, it is all for an amazing cause, Sport Relief.
7:29:53 > 7:29:54Just quickly, why do you think
7:29:54 > 7:29:58- it's so important is that you're out there doing this?- Well, this is
7:29:58 > 7:30:01Robbie's second challenge, it's my third challenge. I did a cycle ride
7:30:01 > 7:30:04a few years ago, and the Wembley challenge a couple of years ago
7:30:04 > 7:30:06and that was over £500,000 we raised. So, if we can raise
7:30:06 > 7:30:09that again then the Premier League will match that.
7:30:09 > 7:30:10- So, fingers crossed. - Massive good luck.
7:30:10 > 7:30:12Fingers and paws crossed here.
7:30:12 > 7:30:14Now, Alan, Robbie, I've been sent in to tell you
7:30:14 > 7:30:17- to get back on the pitch. - That's right, go on. Limp back.
7:30:17 > 7:30:20Just time to tell you what is coming up next week's show.
7:30:20 > 7:30:22Make sure you're watching,
7:30:22 > 7:30:26cos we're going behind the scenes on the amazing Kung Fu Panda 3.
7:30:26 > 7:30:28One of my favourite trips I've been on. I can't believe
7:30:28 > 7:30:32I'm saying this, Barney was in the Batmobile, THE Batmobile.
7:30:32 > 7:30:34I'm jealous. I'm jealous.
7:30:34 > 7:30:37As well as that, we're going to be joined in the studio by Lawson,
7:30:37 > 7:30:39- singing their brand-new single. - Lindsey and I will be going
7:30:39 > 7:30:42head to head in a lip-sync battle. More will be explained next week.
7:30:42 > 7:30:44It sounds good! Can I come back next week?
7:30:44 > 7:30:46- You're welcome any time. - Come back, that's it, done.
7:30:46 > 7:30:48- Bye!- See you next week.- Bye!
