:00:14. > :00:17.festival fever. We are going to be celebrating some of our most
:00:17. > :00:22.memorable music ad and performance moments. I join the UK's top
:00:22. > :00:25.fireworks display team as they attempt to take Monaco by storm.
:00:25. > :00:32.wonderful words of Shakespeare meet the big beats of hip-hop mash up
:00:32. > :00:36.style. I take to the stage as I learn to sign a live gig. We both
:00:36. > :00:46.light up Salford Quays in a fun run like no other. That's all coming up
:00:46. > :00:54.
:00:54. > :00:58.on today's Blue Peter. That was absolutely amazing!
:00:58. > :01:03.Hello, this is Kendal Calling, a music festival in the Lake District.
:01:03. > :01:08.You're dancing already. I can't help it. The stage is being set and there
:01:08. > :01:14.is loads happening. We have been on the roads travelling. We went to
:01:14. > :01:21.Leeds last week. We hope you had as much fun as we did and we unveiled
:01:21. > :01:31.who you have picked as your brand-new Blue Peter presenter.
:01:31. > :01:31.
:01:32. > :01:41.next Blue Peter presenter, as chosen by you, the CBBC viewers is...
:01:42. > :01:46.
:01:47. > :01:51.Lindsay! Congratulations! It's fair to say she was pretty shocked. You
:01:51. > :01:57.can see it in slow mo replay. She is over the shock and she will join us
:01:57. > :02:03.in a few weeks. This festival attracts 13,000 people. The UK goes
:02:03. > :02:08.crazy for festivals in the summer. It normally means getting muddy and
:02:08. > :02:18.rained on but this year even the sun has his hat on. There isn't a welly
:02:18. > :02:37.
:02:37. > :02:42.very good at dancing. There's so much to be discovered like this
:02:42. > :02:47.badge wall. This is amazing. OK, we brought with us. Let's talk about
:02:47. > :02:51.the amazing stuff you have sent in. We have had so much post in the last
:02:51. > :02:55.few weeks. We love these letters sent in by Anna from Tunbridge
:02:55. > :03:00.Wells. She sent us all the letters but you sent us so much stuff we
:03:00. > :03:04.cannot fit it on the wall. Thank you all. This is amazing, everything you
:03:04. > :03:11.expect from Blue Peter, all the pets and badges. Look at the side here, a
:03:11. > :03:15.lovely little holder for your badges. Have a look at this book
:03:15. > :03:20.sent in by Natalia in Dorset. So much information and the cover is
:03:20. > :03:23.all sparkly. There are pop out pages and she even has a list of all the
:03:23. > :03:26.Blue Peter pets since 1962. Thank you so much for that, absolutely
:03:26. > :03:33.fantastic. Thank you for the fabulous things you send us, we love
:03:33. > :03:37.seeing what comes through the letterbox. It is a huge part of any
:03:37. > :03:40.festival but how does it affect your enjoyment if you cannot hear it?
:03:40. > :03:43.Deaf people can find it very difficult to get the whole festival
:03:44. > :03:47.experience so I went along to meet some people who use British Sign
:03:47. > :03:52.Language to bring music to life for everyone. From one big field to
:03:52. > :03:56.another. This is Latitude Festival in Suffolk and there's plenty going
:03:56. > :03:59.on here, too. I love music and I love watching it with groups of
:03:59. > :04:03.people but at the moment, I'm not concentrating on what the band
:04:03. > :04:13.sounds like, all I'm watching is the lady in the far corner who is
:04:13. > :04:17.
:04:17. > :04:23.interpreting the songs. In a few songs time, that is going to be me.
:04:23. > :04:31.Yes, I'm going to perform a whole song in British Sign Language. It is
:04:31. > :04:36.a good job I have had some excellent teachers. I'm in a rehearsal room in
:04:36. > :04:42.London to meet the team that will teach me how to sign. Hi, I'm
:04:42. > :04:46.Rebecca and I will be translating for you today. Hi, I'm Jean. Jean is
:04:46. > :04:51.going to help me interpret words and the meaning of the song. Hi, I'm
:04:51. > :04:54.Ashley. Ashley is a presenter on the CBeebies show Magic Hands and he
:04:54. > :04:59.will be on stage with me for the festival performance. I have been
:04:59. > :05:07.practising saying hello, my name is. Can I have a go? Bear with me, I'm
:05:07. > :05:13.not as fast at finger spelling yet. My name is B-A-R-N-E-Y. Hi! Well
:05:13. > :05:16.done. We're going to play you a few short clips of music and we want you
:05:16. > :05:20.to listen to them, perform to the mirror how you would express
:05:20. > :05:23.yourself. A British Sign Language performance is all about expressing
:05:23. > :05:33.the meaning of the song through movements, not just spelling out the
:05:33. > :05:43.lyrics. I'm not sure I've got it yet. I think it's a song linked to
:05:43. > :05:53.
:05:53. > :05:59.love? I have no idea what that was. A big finish. I can imagine the
:05:59. > :06:03.tango dance with a rose between the teeth? Not quite. I've got work to
:06:03. > :06:10.do so it's time for the serious business of learning a song for the
:06:10. > :06:15.festival. The song we're going to be signing is called Rearrange by a
:06:15. > :06:21.band called Stealing Sheep. Years ago you'd wish you'd known that
:06:21. > :06:25.people change and rearrange. They don't sound like easy words to sign.
:06:25. > :06:29.It's an emotional stumble rather than to fall over. It's like the
:06:29. > :06:36.trauma so what we are going to teach you to sign is this movement which
:06:37. > :06:43.is stumbling and then being hit by a metaphorical bramble. I'm not even
:06:43. > :06:50.sure what that means! The movements are like a dance but there is so
:06:50. > :07:00.much to learn. Stumbling down a bramble track. I'm trying to make it
:07:00. > :07:04.more like this. Years ago, which is going over your shoulder. I really
:07:04. > :07:08.want to do the best I can when I get on stage at the festival so I'm
:07:08. > :07:18.recording Ashley performing a song so I can do some homework. There is
:07:18. > :07:19.
:07:19. > :07:23.so much to remember and all in just two weeks. A big congratulations for
:07:23. > :07:31.today. Remember, practice makes perfect. If you aim, you can
:07:31. > :07:35.achieve. We will see you at the festival! Back at Latitude, my
:07:35. > :07:40.trusty team and I catch up with Stealing Sheep, the band whose song
:07:40. > :07:43.we are about to perform. What is the song about? It's like struggling
:07:43. > :07:48.through something or trying to get somewhere and then things coming
:07:48. > :07:51.together and becoming alive. What you're hoping for from us, or me, is
:07:51. > :07:54.the song you've spent time writing and putting beautiful harmonies
:07:54. > :08:03.over, is interpreted in the right way so everyone knows what you're
:08:03. > :08:06.singing about? Yes.No pressure at all. Nervous. With the performance
:08:06. > :08:09.just couple of hours away, I'm taking the chance to rehearse
:08:10. > :08:16.whenever I can. The crowds are packed in and any second now, I will
:08:16. > :08:26.be in front of them. I'm so glad Ashley is with me. Oh, we're on,
:08:26. > :08:31.
:08:31. > :08:38.there's no turning back. Here goes! Stumble down the bramble track and
:08:38. > :08:43.turning back to where it stands. Years ago you'd wished you known
:08:43. > :08:53.that we've all changed and rearranged.
:08:53. > :09:04.
:09:04. > :09:14.Oh no, my mind has gone blank. I don't think anybody noticed! Every
:09:14. > :09:44.
:09:44. > :09:48.time I see your face. us and say we are incredibly proud
:09:48. > :09:53.of him. He did so, so well. It was a massive achievement. Big claps all
:09:53. > :09:57.around. That was it, that was the performance. There were a few
:09:57. > :10:02.moments where I sort of froze. The great thing is, Ashley knew exactly
:10:02. > :10:10.what was going on. He was a great shoulder to rely on. To sum it up in
:10:10. > :10:16.one word, I would say, fantastic. I do this! That was fantastic, good
:10:16. > :10:23.job. This is how to sign fantastic. I've always wanted to learn sign
:10:23. > :10:28.language, it's so impressive. It is, thank you. Nervous. H-E-L-E-N. You
:10:28. > :10:32.can spend hours, I will try and master some skills. Thank you to all
:10:32. > :10:36.who helped me. And to Stealing Sheep for letting us share the stage with
:10:36. > :10:42.them. It was so nice to learn the meaning of the song by learning the
:10:42. > :10:46.language. Blue Peter is all about getting stuck in. This summer we
:10:46. > :10:54.want you to get stuck in and inspire your friends to get involved in
:10:54. > :10:57.sport. You might just get your hands on one of these. The Blue Peter
:10:57. > :11:01.sport badge is all about inspiring others to take part in sport. Maybe
:11:01. > :11:05.you are cricket crazy or hooked on hockey or fanatical about football.
:11:05. > :11:10.You could earn a sport badge. Between now and September, get a
:11:10. > :11:14.friend involved in your sport. It's really up to you but get a picture
:11:14. > :11:18.of you both taking part. Then go to the Blue Peter website and fill in
:11:18. > :11:22.the application form. Make sure your teacher, coach or parent signs it
:11:22. > :11:25.and then put it in the post and wait. Badge applications are open
:11:25. > :11:29.until the 30th September and you have to inspire someone this year to
:11:29. > :11:33.be in with a chance of receiving one. Go on, be inspiring and get
:11:33. > :11:37.involved. The Blue Peter sport badges are only available in the
:11:37. > :11:40.summer so get those applications in fast. The sport badge is all about
:11:40. > :11:44.encouraging others to get into sport but if there's something different
:11:44. > :11:49.you have your eye on, our friends at BBC Sport have created a website
:11:49. > :11:52.called Get Inspired. You will find everything you need to know to try
:11:52. > :12:00.your hand at over 60 different sports and you can find the website
:12:00. > :12:05.by clicking on Get Inspired. Be inspired and get involved. You never
:12:05. > :12:09.know where it might take you. as Helen found out when she was
:12:09. > :12:12.entered into a rather unusual fun run. There are a lot of things that
:12:12. > :12:16.go together well. Ice cream and jelly, fish and chips, Harwood and
:12:16. > :12:19.Skelton, but I have never heard of running and art going together. When
:12:19. > :12:24.I found out about something that uses technology and people running
:12:24. > :12:33.about to create art, I had to get involved. All I need is someone to
:12:33. > :12:37.take care of the running. I wonder. Helen, you like jogging, don't you?
:12:37. > :12:42.I'm always running. I have a challenge for you, and epic run, are
:12:42. > :12:45.you up for it? Yes, is it in the desert or in Antarctica? No it's a
:12:45. > :12:51.run around the quays. What is important is how you're going to
:12:51. > :12:56.look. Follow me. You do look the part so far but there's one more bit
:12:56. > :13:01.to add to your costume. This is climbing gear. Technically it is
:13:01. > :13:06.running gear. Let me show you something. Lights off, please.
:13:06. > :13:10.are you doing? Wait right there. Tomorrow night, you will take part
:13:10. > :13:13.in an event that is unique and also creative. You will love it because
:13:14. > :13:19.it means you get to be the centre of attention because you're going to
:13:19. > :13:26.light up. Wow, they're all over me. I look like a Christmas tree.
:13:26. > :13:29.does everyone else, look at this! That is amazing! You and 120 other
:13:29. > :13:33.runners will be jogging around the canal wearing these light suits,
:13:33. > :13:38.painting a picture as you go, how cool is that? I'm going to be in
:13:38. > :13:42.charge of the tech so I will be at the desk. That sounds like a big fat
:13:42. > :13:49.cop out to me. You've got a rehearsal to get to. Jog on and I
:13:49. > :13:53.will see you later. Have fun. Barney plays with his toys, I soon
:13:53. > :13:57.discover this is much more than a run, I've got moves to learn. I've
:13:57. > :14:03.got to do letters and at one point I've got to be a flower. Then I've
:14:03. > :14:13.got to run, stop, run, stop. Do a flower again before you go. That is
:14:13. > :14:14.
:14:14. > :14:18.a beautiful thing. Have a good run. It's time for the big event. As
:14:18. > :14:22.darkness falls, Helen and the runners leave bang on time. I feel
:14:22. > :14:25.like I'm part of some weird army. settle into the control room with
:14:25. > :14:29.light technician, Callum, who is ready to talk me through my task.
:14:29. > :14:33.We've got 430 cues through the show so there are 430 changes happening
:14:33. > :14:39.to the suits throughout the production. A suit that goes from
:14:39. > :14:43.white to red to white again is three cues. Yes, absolutely. Our run
:14:43. > :14:45.begins with a warm up lap around the course and right past our Blue Peter
:14:45. > :14:49.Studios. The crowd's gathering and when we're in position, the
:14:49. > :14:59.choreography and light show can begin. So I'm just pressing the go
:14:59. > :15:09.
:15:09. > :15:19.think it's going well. It creates a rainbow effect all the way through
:15:19. > :15:25.the runners. Now. Oh, yeah. Is that bright enough for you? Going. Wow.
:15:25. > :15:31.Perfect. I've lost my crew once but I'm back in the right place now.
:15:32. > :15:35.Two, four. This event is about putting on a show for people who
:15:35. > :15:40.have come to watch but it is also about the photography and film it
:15:40. > :15:46.inspires. So I have left Callum to control the lights because I have a
:15:46. > :15:51.very special gadget that is perfect for this job. This is a weird
:15:51. > :15:56.monitor where you can see me moving in a very strange pattern. We are
:15:56. > :16:02.going to try to show you how to paint using light. Normally you
:16:02. > :16:05.would use a stills camera for this and put it on a tripod. And take a
:16:05. > :16:11.picture over a long period of time whilst you move something that is
:16:11. > :16:19.lit up through the scene. But this clever bit of software does it all
:16:19. > :16:21.for you. I thought we could set this up to film the runners as they run
:16:22. > :16:25.past and in doing so, it will paint a pretty picture. After a
:16:25. > :16:29.last-minute reminder of our moves, it is time for the big finale. All
:16:29. > :16:33.120 of us take to the piazza following our lead runners. Looking
:16:33. > :16:37.good, Helen, and I've got the camera in position to start painting with
:16:37. > :16:40.light. That looks absolutely amazing, doesn't it. All the runners
:16:40. > :16:45.are moving quite frantically and they have got these people suddenly
:16:45. > :16:55.appear, fading into the shot. When was the last time you looked at a
:16:55. > :17:05.
:17:05. > :17:11.piece of artwork that changed every makes. It was chilly then but look
:17:11. > :17:15.at us now. We've got sleeveless tops on and everything. We love to hear
:17:15. > :17:23.what you get up to so why not get in touch. We are going to tell you
:17:23. > :17:25.about something very special happening in September. A make that
:17:25. > :17:30.lets you keep those special summer memories forever. It's a make that
:17:30. > :17:35.requires a bit of preparation that you can do now. We need you to
:17:35. > :17:38.collect things together. If you get invited to a party over the summer,
:17:38. > :17:43.keep the invite, if you go to the cinema, keep the cinema stub. Maybe
:17:43. > :17:47.you have some family photos. That's a nice idea. I'm going to keep my
:17:47. > :17:52.festival wristband. If that's not enough to keep you going, get
:17:52. > :17:57.involved with our Summer Reading Challenge. All you have to do is
:17:57. > :18:02.sign up in the library and read six books over the summer. The stickers
:18:02. > :18:09.that you will be rewarded with absolutely pong. Not in a bad way,
:18:09. > :18:14.in an unbelievably bad way. They really stink. If you really fancy a
:18:14. > :18:18.challenge, why not try reading the works of Shakespeare? Or you may
:18:18. > :18:20.think 400-year-old books are a bit boring. This drum-beat in the
:18:20. > :18:30.background works quite well as an introduction because the Hip-Hop
:18:30. > :18:31.
:18:31. > :18:33.Shakespeare came in to show us their All you little boys are a Comedy of
:18:33. > :18:37.Errors. One day my friend you're jealous
:18:37. > :18:39.like Othello. What you gonna do?
:18:39. > :18:44.Little boys get tamed like the shrew.
:18:44. > :18:49.You're dreaming. I am the Julius Cesar here, me.
:18:49. > :18:51.All's well that ends well. Like Macbeth, you're going to hell.
:18:51. > :18:54.Measure for Measure, I'm the best here.
:18:54. > :18:59.The Merry Wives of Windsor, not King Lear.
:18:59. > :19:03.You battle like Hamlet, you pay for your actions.
:19:03. > :19:07.You're Much Ado About Nothing. All you do is bite it.
:19:07. > :19:09.I'm too tired, I don't need 12 Nights.
:19:09. > :19:14.I am the one with the force. History, Just like Henry IV.
:19:14. > :19:19.On fire, things look dire. Cold as a Winter's Tale.
:19:19. > :19:26.It was bound to fail, so will you. That's suicide like Cleopatra.
:19:26. > :19:29.She needed two gentleman of Verona. I am the owner!
:19:29. > :19:32.Being too great. I have no need to beg.
:19:33. > :19:36.A weighted halo rests heavy on a king's head.
:19:36. > :19:39.I was not born to soothe but to command.
:19:39. > :19:43.And move mountains with my Royal hand.
:19:43. > :19:52.The great King Richard. Who knows not my name.
:19:52. > :19:56.Your pain must be withstood. For lions make leopards tame.
:19:56. > :19:59.When shall we three meet again? With thunder, lightning and rain.
:19:59. > :20:03.When the course is run and the battle is won.
:20:03. > :20:06.For half the light comes with the setting of the sun.
:20:07. > :20:10.Fair is foul and foul is fair. Hover through the fog through the
:20:10. > :20:13.filthy air. Hover in the rain cos we're going
:20:13. > :20:15.nowhere. Do we bother to refrain from the
:20:15. > :20:24.weight of the chair? # So-la-so.
:20:24. > :20:27.With solemn reverence: throw away respect.
:20:27. > :20:30.Tradition, form and ceremonious duty.
:20:30. > :20:34.For you have but mistook me all this while.
:20:34. > :20:37.I live with bread like you, feel want.
:20:37. > :20:43.Taste grief, need friends: subjected thus.
:20:43. > :20:46.How can you say to me, I am a king? Am I king? Can you see the energy
:20:46. > :20:49.I'm channelling? Am I queen, cos I control the powers
:20:49. > :20:51.I enrol? Am I King? King or just a dashing
:20:51. > :20:53.prince? Am I Queen?
:20:53. > :20:56.Is she Queen? Is he King?
:20:56. > :20:59.Am I king? Can you see the energy I'm channelling?
:20:59. > :21:02.Am I queen, cos I control the powers I enrol?
:21:02. > :21:04.Am I king or just a really dashing prince?
:21:04. > :21:09.Am I King? Am I Queen?
:21:09. > :21:14.I am the poet. Cos I do not use no language.
:21:14. > :21:19.And I use a variety of vocabulary. I take the listener to deep regret.
:21:19. > :21:25.And back to exquisite happiness. Words, poetical force. Of course my
:21:25. > :21:34.lyrics are in it. And I pivot around my bars.
:21:34. > :21:41.APPLAUSE. Those guys were cool! Not as good as
:21:41. > :21:47.this! What number have these following things got in common? The
:21:47. > :21:55.Musketeers, Patrick in the football game, Blue Peter presenters. Lindsay
:21:55. > :22:01.is going to be joining the ranks. Three! We could get her to hang
:22:01. > :22:08.bunting on the Humber Bridge. Or what about getting her to go all the
:22:08. > :22:18.way to Monaco with the UK's top firework display team? That sounds
:22:18. > :22:30.
:22:30. > :22:33.being escorted into the docks of Monaco by the police. A police
:22:33. > :22:39.expert -- Escort is normally reserved for monarchy but this is
:22:39. > :22:47.full to the brim with fireworks. An award-winning British firework team
:22:47. > :22:53.have transported these explosives over 1000 miles to Monaco by the
:22:53. > :22:59.Mediterranean Sea. The team want to set up a fireworks display for an
:22:59. > :23:05.international competition. The whole display was designed by Mark, who
:23:05. > :23:10.started his planning eight months ago back in Britain. How do you go
:23:10. > :23:17.from gadgets and TV screens to a fireworks display? We start with the
:23:17. > :23:23.music. Lots of good music but some of it is not good with fireworks. It
:23:23. > :23:28.goes from the music software into a scripting software. If it is a quiet
:23:28. > :23:36.peace, we use quiet fireworks. If it is a colourful piece, colourful
:23:36. > :23:43.fireworks. Is it controlled by computer? Yes. That is what has been
:23:43. > :23:47.happening in Monaco. The harbour has already seen three huge firework
:23:48. > :23:51.displays from France, Austria and the Czech Republic, all competing to
:23:51. > :23:56.win this year 's competition. Mark and his crew face a big task
:23:56. > :24:04.building his vision. But help is on hand. Mark's fiancee is also a
:24:04. > :24:09.whiz-bang expert. Can you explain what you need to do. We have to
:24:09. > :24:14.carry all these tubes into position and get them back in and get the
:24:14. > :24:23.pins in so they are safe. We've got 20 crew here, 21. Can I be a crew
:24:23. > :24:27.member? Bring it on. So I get down and dirty to lift these huge tubes.
:24:27. > :24:34.They are used to launch specialised fireworks in the display. Placing
:24:34. > :24:40.them is very physical and technical. I have been given a map of where the
:24:40. > :24:50.tubes go and that, believe it or not, is the language these boys
:24:50. > :25:02.
:25:02. > :25:05.speak. I'm guessing they want the progress. Mark, Hannah and the team
:25:05. > :25:14.still have plenty of work to do wiring every firework up to the
:25:14. > :25:17.computer. This does not look like the kind of fireworks you get on
:25:17. > :25:25.bonfire night in the back garden. These are category four fireworks.
:25:25. > :25:32.They're far more powerful. These boxes tell the fireworks went to go
:25:32. > :25:36.off. Do you trust me? What do you reckon? Yeah, love to. If you put
:25:36. > :25:39.that into 29. It doesn't matter what way round they go. It must be
:25:39. > :25:49.connected otherwise it won't fire. They're definitely connected. Slot
:25:49. > :25:57.
:25:57. > :26:02.29. That's mine! The set-up as gone have worked so hard to put this
:26:02. > :26:05.together. How are you feeling? can't explain how nervous I feel.
:26:05. > :26:12.The conditions are perfect so we should see the fireworks dance
:26:13. > :26:22.through the night sky in time with the music. Will be our waiting for
:26:23. > :26:39.
:26:39. > :26:49.is the lights to go out and as soon over Monaco in 50 different, vibrant
:26:49. > :26:53.
:26:53. > :27:01.the ships down there. All of Monaco celebrates the fireworks by honking
:27:01. > :27:11.their horns to let them know they're enjoying the display. It is a
:27:11. > :27:20.
:27:20. > :27:27.cracking display! Light and sound in you, that's why they're UK
:27:27. > :27:35.champions. And what an amazing day we have had. Our festival fun must
:27:35. > :27:39.come to an end. Next week we will be taking to the skies and celebrating
:27:39. > :27:45.our high-flying stands. I go loopy when I ride with a top aerobatics
:27:45. > :27:48.display team. The Red Arrows let me join their ranks. And I lend my
