0:01:15 > 0:01:18Michael from Manchester, you said you enjoyed seeing me
0:01:18 > 0:01:21in my wrestling costume. First of all, thank you very much.
0:01:21 > 0:01:22Secondly, you'll very much like this
0:01:22 > 0:01:24because later on in the show
0:01:24 > 0:01:26we'll be revealing exactly what happened
0:01:26 > 0:01:28to my missing wrestling costume,
0:01:28 > 0:01:30courtesy of author Robin Stevens.
0:01:30 > 0:01:33And it's not just the wrestling costume that's gone missing -
0:01:33 > 0:01:35oh, no, little Shells has as well.
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- Found her!- That doesn't count. - She's right there.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40You've got to spot Shelley later in the show -
0:01:40 > 0:01:43If you do, head onto Fan Club Live, let us know where she is.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45- I can save you some time - she's right there.- No!
0:01:45 > 0:01:46She's not, she's hiding.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49The person who spots her first will win their very own lifetime supply
0:01:49 > 0:01:52of freezer bags for sandwiches. That's not true.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54- That's a new one.- I like that. - I enjoyed that.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57We're also sadly coming to the end of the Big Badge Boat Bonanza
0:01:57 > 0:01:58but the question is,
0:01:58 > 0:02:01- have you earned your Purple badge about yet?- If you haven't...
0:02:01 > 0:02:03FRENCH ACCENT: ..why not? How do you say that in French?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05- Pourquoi pas?- Pourquoi pas?
0:02:05 > 0:02:07All you've got to do is go to the Blue Peter website
0:02:07 > 0:02:08and download this form,
0:02:08 > 0:02:10fill it in and send it to the usual address.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12You never know - one of us
0:02:12 > 0:02:14might just turn up at your house and give you your badge.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17It has been known to happen before. Oh, they're going to play it now.
0:02:17 > 0:02:18C'est la vie.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22OK. Do you know what I love about the Purple badge forms?
0:02:22 > 0:02:25They give you direct access to the show.
0:02:25 > 0:02:28So today, I'm on a mission to reward these three Purple badge
0:02:28 > 0:02:31viewers with their own Purple badges.
0:02:31 > 0:02:33In fact, crew - where are we going today?
0:02:33 > 0:02:36- Surrey.- No need to apologise!
0:02:36 > 0:02:38HE LAUGHS OK, fine, let's just set off.
0:02:40 > 0:02:42So I'm on the way to beat a girl called Olivia.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Olivia wrote in and said that she likes to cheerlead.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47I haven't brought my pom-poms with me,
0:02:47 > 0:02:49but I have brought you a Purple badge.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52We've got Olivia's whole squad together, just to surprise her.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54They haven't got a clue we're coming.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Hi, girls. How are you? THEY GIGGLE
0:02:57 > 0:02:58Where's Olivia?
0:02:58 > 0:03:00- Hi, Olivia. How are you doing? - Hello.
0:03:00 > 0:03:02So you wrote into the show and you said that you were
0:03:02 > 0:03:04a cheerleader, which is why we're here today.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07- And also of course, to give you your very own Purple badge.- Thank you.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10You're welcome. Round of applause for Olivia, everybody!
0:03:11 > 0:03:13I watched the David Walliams show,
0:03:13 > 0:03:16and also Lindsey and Radzi went to this golf course.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18They were amazing, weren't they?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20If you were to decide what I was doing on the show,
0:03:20 > 0:03:22what would you like to see me do?
0:03:22 > 0:03:25- Erm... Forward roll and cartwheel?- Yes. I can do that.
0:03:25 > 0:03:26Ready?
0:03:30 > 0:03:32GIRLS CLAP AND WHOOP
0:03:32 > 0:03:34That was fun. Cheerleading - ready?
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Go.
0:03:35 > 0:03:37LIVELY MUSIC PLAYS
0:03:43 > 0:03:45That was a very successful badge hit with Olivia
0:03:45 > 0:03:46and her cheerleading team.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49We're now heading to say hello to Frances, who's got in touch
0:03:49 > 0:03:53to say that she loves upcycling, and she loves Take That.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56I like a bit of Take That myself, you know.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59# Today this could be
0:03:59 > 0:04:03# The greatest day of our lives... #
0:04:06 > 0:04:07Hi, Frances, how you doing?
0:04:07 > 0:04:10So apparently you liked the David Walliams show the most,
0:04:10 > 0:04:13and that's why you wrote to us on your Purple badge form.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16You liked that Lindsey and Radzi were playing golf,
0:04:16 > 0:04:19- you liked making pizzas and cakes in the mug as well, yeah...?- Yeah.
0:04:19 > 0:04:23- Well, good to see you, how you doing?- I'm great!
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Oh, my gosh, I can't believe this is happening.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- Can we come in? - Yeah, sure, if you like.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29Can we get a cup of tea? One sugar for me, please.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31We love upcycling on the show,
0:04:31 > 0:04:33we love turning old things into new things.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Now, this is my favourite thing that you've made.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38It's a sweet dispenser, and it's a long piece of wood cut up, and it's
0:04:38 > 0:04:41got a jar of sweets and you move it and sweets come out, so...
0:04:41 > 0:04:45Well, I think while we're here it's rude not to not try it, isn't it?
0:04:45 > 0:04:46Yay!
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Frances, you're an absolute genius.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53And I think you are absolutely worthy of your very own...
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- Purple badge.- Thank you very much! - Congratulations.- Thank you.
0:04:56 > 0:04:58- I'd like to have some pizza, wouldn't you?- Er, yeah.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00- That would be nice.- Do you remember the pizza in the mug?- Yeah.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02Back in the studio, Nikki Lilly
0:05:02 > 0:05:03showed me how to make pizza in a cup.
0:05:03 > 0:05:07So now it's time I showed Frances just how good it is.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10And while we're eating it, we can talk about the Fan Club.
0:05:10 > 0:05:12I like the little, like, things where you...
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Maybe you blurt something and you say "What is this?"
0:05:15 > 0:05:18- And more games.- Yeah, more games you can look at and more things to do.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21OK, you're in charge of Blue Peter for the day,
0:05:21 > 0:05:24and you can choose for me to do one thing on the show.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Probably...hula-hooping.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Do you mean I've got to do the circle thing with a hula-hoop
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- while I'm talking on the telly? - Yeah.
0:05:30 > 0:05:31I will give it a go. Why not?
0:05:31 > 0:05:34- Frances, thank you very much. - Thanks.- See you soon.- Bye!
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Well, that was an amazing success.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Frances was really surprised, wasn't she?
0:05:39 > 0:05:41For the next surprise, we are off to see Rohan,
0:05:41 > 0:05:45who wants to see more sports on the website.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47What Rohan doesn't know is that
0:05:47 > 0:05:50we're going to be putting HIM on the website.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52This BP superfan loves skateboarding, so I'm going to
0:05:52 > 0:05:55film him doing his thing, and put it on the Blue Peter site.
0:05:55 > 0:05:58Hey, Rohan, how are you doing?
0:05:58 > 0:06:00Er... I'm good.
0:06:00 > 0:06:01Recognise this?
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Oh, my gosh, that's the... Yeah, I did that at school.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Yeah. It's your Purple badge form.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08You've put that you want to see more sports stuff online.
0:06:08 > 0:06:10All you've got to do for me
0:06:10 > 0:06:12- is put that on, to start off with... - OK.
0:06:12 > 0:06:13Mum...?
0:06:13 > 0:06:16- Yes?- Is it OK if Rohan comes out to play, please?
0:06:16 > 0:06:18Yes. Where's he going?
0:06:18 > 0:06:20Well, you're going to need your skateboard.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24You ready? Three, two, one...
0:06:24 > 0:06:29Hello, I'm Rohan, and today I'm going to be teaching you
0:06:29 > 0:06:31three tricks you can do on your skateboard.
0:06:31 > 0:06:32This is too easy.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38Really good job, that, mate.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40You are now the director of Blue Peter,
0:06:40 > 0:06:42and you can tell me to do anything.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- What do you want me to do?- There is the vert. We could fly down that.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- I've no idea what it is, but let's do it.- OK. Cool. Let's go.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- OK, that's quite a long way down, isn't it?- Yup. You can do it.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57So it's like a slide, basically.
0:06:57 > 0:06:59It's a... It's more than a slide.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01BOTH: Three, two, one...
0:07:04 > 0:07:06That's how you end a film, right there.
0:07:06 > 0:07:08Can we do it again?
0:07:09 > 0:07:13Olivia, Frances, Rohan, we loved surprising you.
0:07:13 > 0:07:15In fact - here comes a happy dance, from me to you,
0:07:15 > 0:07:17whilst we take a look at the big badge ball.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20It is a beautiful thing this week, have a look at it.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23Niromy says, "I like the part when Blue Peter shows people's
0:07:23 > 0:07:26"pictures, because it inspires me." Well, hopefully, Niromy,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29that's inspired you to get even more Blue Peter badges. Get on it.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32Absolutely. Charlotte, you've earned yourself a Purple badge,
0:07:32 > 0:07:34because of this Purple badge form in which you said,
0:07:34 > 0:07:36- "Me and my tortoise Timmy..." - Awww, look!- There he is there.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39"..would like to see you giving Shelley a bath on the show.
0:07:39 > 0:07:40What a great idea, Charlotte.
0:07:40 > 0:07:43Let's take a look at Barnaby with a cardboard cutout of a guy
0:07:43 > 0:07:44called Barnaby, that's my full name.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46Look at him with his big smiley face.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Definitely someone to look out for in the future,
0:07:48 > 0:07:49something to do with showbusiness.
0:07:49 > 0:07:51If he was on the show
0:07:51 > 0:07:53he'd play some music because cos he's really good at it -
0:07:53 > 0:07:54Barn, thank you very much, mate.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56That's so nice, Georgia from Essex says
0:07:56 > 0:07:59"The thing that I want to see on Blue Peter is a fidget spinner
0:07:59 > 0:08:01"because if anyone does not know what they are,
0:08:01 > 0:08:03"they can find out on the show and even make their own."
0:08:03 > 0:08:07Well, Georgia, we've got good news for you, check this out...
0:08:07 > 0:08:11- They're cool, are they? - They are very cool indeed.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13And if you want to know how to make
0:08:13 > 0:08:15your own very own home-made fidget spinner,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18head to the Blue Peter website, check out all the details.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20Well - that's what YOU think of Blue Peter...
0:08:20 > 0:08:22but here is what you really think.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27Lately we've been having a brilliant time on Blue Peter.
0:08:27 > 0:08:29We've had exciting challenges,
0:08:29 > 0:08:33amazing competitions and incredible live moments.
0:08:33 > 0:08:35But what happened
0:08:35 > 0:08:38when we showed some highlights to a load of BP fans? Time to find out.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40Blue Peter!
0:08:40 > 0:08:44We start with a challenge that we thought Lindsey would BEE great at.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46The beard of bees.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48I'm terrified of bees.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51Imagine just having 1,000 bees on you.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55- Yeah.- And then they all stung you, you'd be like, "Aaaargh!"
0:08:55 > 0:08:58- VOICEOVER:- Ian wants me to touch the bees with my hand...
0:08:58 > 0:08:59Oh, I'm shaking so much!
0:08:59 > 0:09:02..so I can get used to the feeling of them on my skin.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Would you be able to do it, Grace?- No.- No.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Ian takes the queen and ties her around my chin.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11- I couldn't do this.- Neither could I.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13As the bee starts coming across onto my face,
0:09:13 > 0:09:15I'm feeling more and more uneasy.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- She is going to get stung! - She probably will be.
0:09:18 > 0:09:20- Ow, ow! - VOICEOVER:- I've been stung.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23Once one bee has stung, it sends a signal to all the others
0:09:23 > 0:09:25that they're in danger,
0:09:25 > 0:09:28and then I'm stung for a second time.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29Oh, no!
0:09:29 > 0:09:32Ian steps in to cool it off.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34That's a good idea.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36At least I'm not afraid of bees any more.
0:09:36 > 0:09:38- BUZZING - Whoa!
0:09:39 > 0:09:42And from jaw stinging, to jaw-dropping.
0:09:42 > 0:09:46I went to meet freestyle scooter pro Jamie Hull,
0:09:46 > 0:09:47to try and learn the basics.
0:09:50 > 0:09:55Luckily, I was fine, and Jamie showed me how it's really done.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Oh, wow!
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Oh, that is awesome.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04- That is just amazing how they do stuff like that, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08But Jamie's not the only amazing talent to turn up the...heat,
0:10:08 > 0:10:09on BP this year.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- Whoa!- Whoa...
0:10:16 > 0:10:18Is that even safe?
0:10:18 > 0:10:21So these originated in New Zealand...
0:10:21 > 0:10:23They look like, mini light things.
0:10:23 > 0:10:25- I'm loving this. - Barney's showing off!
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Barney's killing it.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Going to try one forward, and one backward.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31It's like rubbing your stomach.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33- Oh, I can do that.- Where...?
0:10:33 > 0:10:34Oh, yeah.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- THEY GASP - It's on fire.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44She's having a right good time, isn't she?
0:10:48 > 0:10:50That was incredible.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53And speaking of incredible, in April,
0:10:53 > 0:10:56science guru Greg joined us for an amazing experiment,
0:10:56 > 0:11:00to test the power of friction between the pages of two books.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03My plan, is I want to dangle YOU
0:11:03 > 0:11:06underneath those interweaved books...
0:11:06 > 0:11:07How?
0:11:07 > 0:11:09..attach the other end
0:11:09 > 0:11:11to a zip wire...
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Wow! - ..all the way down into the piazza.
0:11:14 > 0:11:15What...?
0:11:15 > 0:11:17What happens if it rips?
0:11:17 > 0:11:18- VOICEOVER:- We need another presenter.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Someone with nerves of steel,
0:11:20 > 0:11:22and a matching suit.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24We need...Radzi.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Oh, here comes trouble.
0:11:26 > 0:11:28Oh... I've just looked over the edge.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30- Don't look down, then. - Just push her.
0:11:30 > 0:11:31Five...
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Four...
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- Three...- Two...
0:11:34 > 0:11:36One. Go!
0:11:36 > 0:11:37SHE SCREAMS
0:11:38 > 0:11:39Oh!
0:11:39 > 0:11:41I'm getting faster!
0:11:41 > 0:11:44The book isn't even shifting.
0:11:45 > 0:11:47- VOICEOVER:- I cannot believe that worked.
0:11:47 > 0:11:49That was scary!
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Whoo!
0:11:51 > 0:11:52All right!
0:11:52 > 0:11:54Partner... We are on fire!
0:11:54 > 0:11:56That is so cool.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59Whoaaa!

0:12:31 > 0:12:33And Radzi was keen to have a go himself...
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Mum! I'm on a bike.
0:12:36 > 0:12:37Wayyy!
0:12:37 > 0:12:39- That's cool. - I'd love to get on that.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43And finally, you loved seeing Lindsey take on her biggest fear,
0:12:43 > 0:12:46when she dived with sharks.
0:12:46 > 0:12:49HE SINGS "JAWS" THEME
0:12:50 > 0:12:52I really am going to be amongst them.
0:12:52 > 0:12:53Yeah, you are.
0:12:53 > 0:12:55Oh, my gosh, it's turning to look at me.
0:12:55 > 0:12:59- What would you do if you just saw it coming at you?- Swim!
0:12:59 > 0:13:01- VOICEOVER:- The last thing I want to do
0:13:01 > 0:13:03is get in this water.
0:13:03 > 0:13:04Oh, come on!
0:13:04 > 0:13:06My heart is pounding.
0:13:08 > 0:13:11- Ooh...- Gee whizz.
0:13:11 > 0:13:17My worst nightmare just swam centimetres from my face.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19And then it dawns on me...
0:13:19 > 0:13:20I'm fine!
0:13:25 > 0:13:28It's terrifying, but it's amazing. She actually likes it now.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32You did it! Good job.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34That's what they thought, but what about you?
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Download your Purple badge form,
0:13:36 > 0:13:38fill it in and send it back to us to tell us what you think.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42You never know - you could earn your very own Purple badge.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45We will never get bored of watching you watch us.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47And right now if we're watching you at home, you'd be watching us
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- watching YOU watching us. - That's very true. What he said.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52OK. Now it's time for more of what you wanted to see on the show.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55So Caleb from Milton Keynes had a great idea, watch this.
0:13:56 > 0:14:01Hello, my name is Caleb, and I want to see Barney dancing to rock music.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06I'd love to dance to some rock music but I can't do that without the help
0:14:06 > 0:14:09of a superstar legend - everyone, huge round of applause for Toby.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12THEY CHEER
0:14:12 > 0:14:14Good to see you, mate, welcome to the show.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16At this point I would normally ask you a question,
0:14:16 > 0:14:19but if you put the guitar on for me, I can probably get you to answer
0:14:19 > 0:14:22the question by just showing us what you can do, does that sound good?
0:14:22 > 0:14:25- Sure.- All right, then, Toby. Let it rip.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28MELLOW GUITAR VIBE
0:14:42 > 0:14:45This boy's got a soul!
0:14:45 > 0:14:48Toby, amazing. I mean, how long have you been playing this for?
0:14:48 > 0:14:51Since I was six, so six years.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54- You're that good in six years. - Thank you.- What an inspiration.
0:14:54 > 0:14:55Let's talk about inspirations,
0:14:55 > 0:14:57so the kind of people that you listen to
0:14:57 > 0:14:59that get you really fired up and make you want to play guitar.
0:14:59 > 0:15:03I love, like, Stevie Ray Vaughan, John Mayer, BB King...
0:15:03 > 0:15:07They're just all amazing people and amazing musicians,
0:15:07 > 0:15:12but sadly all the people that I really, really like in music
0:15:12 > 0:15:14and stuff are just not here any more.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17- But their music is, that's the great thing.- Exactly.- They're online.
0:15:17 > 0:15:19You can watch videos and learn from them.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- My heroes are people like Jimi Hendrix...- Yeah, definitely.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22Steve Vai, Yngwie Malmsteen,
0:15:22 > 0:15:25guys that have a bit of classical skill and a bit of rock skill.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27Guitar can take you anywhere in the world, it really can
0:15:27 > 0:15:28if you become really good like you are.
0:15:28 > 0:15:31And you are a shining example of exactly where it can take you.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Tell us about some of the things that you've done.
0:15:33 > 0:15:35Well, from online videos on social media
0:15:35 > 0:15:38and stuff to playing at BB King's Blues Club, it's pretty cool.
0:15:38 > 0:15:41Which every guitarist watching right now is like, "You did what?"
0:15:41 > 0:15:42I mean, that's the dream gig.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45That's like being a footballer and playing at Wembley, isn't it?
0:15:45 > 0:15:46It is pretty fun. It really is.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48So, let's talk about School Of Rock.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51Oh, School Of Rock's just the best experience.
0:15:51 > 0:15:53Come to it, come watch us!
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Well, this is what you're going to see if you do.
0:15:55 > 0:15:57I mean, look at that for a stage persona.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00- You really do enjoy yourself up there, don't you?- It's just so fun.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01It's like...
0:16:01 > 0:16:05Because I've done it for so long now, my body's just like,
0:16:05 > 0:16:07"Yeah, you go there and you go there, just move there."
0:16:07 > 0:16:09It's kind of second nature, isn't it, now?
0:16:09 > 0:16:11But it's all about the music and what you play.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Now, a lot of people don't know this about musicians,
0:16:13 > 0:16:15especially guitarists, but your brain is not physically able
0:16:15 > 0:16:18to do things with your hands and your face at the same time.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20So if you're concentrating on the fingers,
0:16:20 > 0:16:22your face just loses control and you end up pulling all sorts of pouts,
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- which you are famous for.- Yeah.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27- Yeah, people don't like it and some people do.- I love it.
0:16:27 > 0:16:29I think it's all about being creative
0:16:29 > 0:16:30and being your own individual musician.
0:16:30 > 0:16:32So your pouty face, if we could see it?
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- You've got like a... - CHORD
0:16:35 > 0:16:36It's like a mean Elvis Presley going on.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38It's actually a beautiful thing.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40- Now, I play a little bit of guitar myself.- Do you?
0:16:40 > 0:16:42And when you first start to learn the guitar,
0:16:42 > 0:16:45you play what's called 12 bar blues. Everybody will recognise it,
0:16:45 > 0:16:49but this for me is also a great way for you to showcase what you can do.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52So if I give you a little bit of a background to play along to...
0:16:52 > 0:16:54- OK.- Something like this.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57BARNEY PLAYS BLUES CHORDS
0:16:57 > 0:17:02COOL GUITAR IMPROVISATION
0:17:40 > 0:17:42APPLAUSE What an absolute legend.
0:17:42 > 0:17:45Toby, it's been so good to meet you, mate. It really has.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47Thank you for coming into the studio. If anybody's watching
0:17:47 > 0:17:49and they're seven or eight years old and thinking about
0:17:49 > 0:17:52picking up the guitar, what would you say to them to inspire them?
0:17:52 > 0:17:56I would say keep practising, get a guitar
0:17:56 > 0:17:58and don't worry about anything.
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Just do it. Just do it.
0:18:00 > 0:18:02And you'll get really good and that's...
0:18:02 > 0:18:05- That's what we're here for. - Toby, you're amazing.
0:18:05 > 0:18:07If you want to get some more tips from Toby,
0:18:07 > 0:18:10head online to the BP website. The usual place, the Fan Club.
0:18:10 > 0:18:12Let's have a massive round of applause for Toby before he goes.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15What an absolute star. Mate, thank you so much.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Lindsey, Radz.
0:18:17 > 0:18:18They improvised that!
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- That was off the chart. - What? That's a joke.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Incredible talent.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26Now though, let's hear from Eleanor from Devon.
0:18:26 > 0:18:30My name is Eleanor and I really like cheese, so one of my favourite
0:18:30 > 0:18:34parts of Blue Peter was when Lindsey made extreme cheese.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36Well, we're about to make your cheesy dreams come true.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Enjoy, Eleanor.
0:18:38 > 0:18:42Cheese. I absolutely adore it, so why, may you ask,
0:18:42 > 0:18:46am I starting a film about cheese outside a cave in Somerset?
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Well, all is going to be revealed,
0:18:48 > 0:18:52but first I need to head about 45 miles that way to Dorset.
0:18:53 > 0:18:57This is Ford Farm and I'm here because we need to go
0:18:57 > 0:19:00back to the beginning and find out how cheese is made.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03Nice hairnet, Linds.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05So, where do we start?
0:19:05 > 0:19:07With milk, of course.
0:19:07 > 0:19:10Meet Martin, a cheesemaking expert.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14Hello, Martin. I'm here and I'm ready to milk some cows.
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Let's do this.
0:19:15 > 0:19:18We've already done that, so we'll crack on and make some cheese today.
0:19:18 > 0:19:20Right. Yes.
0:19:20 > 0:19:21I knew that.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26Hands washed and sanitised, we are good to go.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Oh, my goodness! Is that milk?
0:19:30 > 0:19:33We fill the tanks with milk.
0:19:33 > 0:19:34This is now curds and whey.
0:19:34 > 0:19:37- So that's why there's kind of little bits in it?- Yeah.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40When a special ingredient is added to milk,
0:19:40 > 0:19:41it splits into curds and whey.
0:19:41 > 0:19:44Curds are the solid bit and whey is the liquid.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52The curds and whey are now being drained and separated.
0:19:52 > 0:19:54It's foaming. It's hot.
0:19:54 > 0:19:56It is hot. It's 40 degrees.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58Once most of the whey has been drained,
0:19:58 > 0:20:00it's time to cheddar the curds.
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- So the idea is we cut it with a knife.- Yeah.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06And then we roll the loaf over.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Oh, right. And that's cheddaring?
0:20:08 > 0:20:09And that's cheddaring.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13- And that's why it's called Cheddar cheese?- Absolutely.
0:20:13 > 0:20:14You cut, I'll roll.
0:20:14 > 0:20:17Oh, it's quite heavy, isn't it? Eurgh, it's really hot!
0:20:17 > 0:20:20It's like wet, hot scrambled egg.
0:20:20 > 0:20:22And it's really heavy.
0:20:22 > 0:20:25- How long do you just keep doing this for?- About two hours.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27Two hours?
0:20:27 > 0:20:28You'd get strong.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30It's a good workout, cheddaring.
0:20:30 > 0:20:32After cutting and turning the curds into blocks,
0:20:32 > 0:20:35all our hard work is undone by this machine
0:20:35 > 0:20:38which breaks it up again into small pieces
0:20:38 > 0:20:41to make sure the cheese gets an even scattering of salt.
0:20:41 > 0:20:45The curds are then put into moulds to be pressed into shape.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Still wouldn't want to eat this in a sandwich, would you?
0:20:48 > 0:20:52After four hours of being pressed, our cheese is carefully...
0:20:53 > 0:20:54Yeah, very carefully(!)
0:20:54 > 0:20:56Come on, cheese!
0:20:56 > 0:20:58..taken out and covered with a layer of lard
0:20:58 > 0:21:01to protect it from drying out.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03It's like a proper Blue Peter make.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06It's then wrapped and left to mature for 12 months.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09I'm quite proud of that, Martin. Done!
0:21:09 > 0:21:12I've just got one more thing on my to-do list,
0:21:12 > 0:21:16because this cheese doesn't just sit on the farm for 12 months.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Oh, no.
0:21:17 > 0:21:19Remember the cave from earlier?
0:21:19 > 0:21:23Well, it's about to take centre stage,
0:21:23 > 0:21:26because this type of cheese is special.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28To give it a unique, earthy flavour,
0:21:28 > 0:21:34it's kept 16 metres underground at the Wookey Hole Caves in Somerset.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37And that's exactly where our cheese is heading.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39To get our cheese into its home for the year,
0:21:39 > 0:21:41I'm going to take it caving.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44Guys, this is extreme cheese!
0:21:44 > 0:21:47And I don't really know what that is.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50But luckily, caving guide Becca is here to help me.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52- Hi.- How you doing?
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Thank you for helping me today. Let's do this.
0:21:56 > 0:21:59I'm taking our cheese through some of the ancient tunnels
0:21:59 > 0:22:01and caverns that have only recently been opened,
0:22:01 > 0:22:04so I've wrapped it carefully in a bag.
0:22:05 > 0:22:07That is a tight squeeze.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Ooh! Oh... OK.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16It's incredible to think that some of the caves
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I'm travelling through were created 50,000 years ago.
0:22:21 > 0:22:25This cheese had better taste good. I'll tell you that much.
0:22:25 > 0:22:27But caving is only the beginning.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30It turns out I'll do anything for cheese,
0:22:30 > 0:22:31not just crawling through tunnels.
0:22:33 > 0:22:34So, Becca, what are we doing? I'm scared!
0:22:34 > 0:22:37Lindsey, you're going to do an abseil. So when you're ready,
0:22:37 > 0:22:39if you just want to kneel down and go out to the edge.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43- Let go?- Let go. - OK. Oh, my goodness!
0:22:43 > 0:22:46- This is an intense way to store cheese, I've got to say.- It is.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49You could have just put it in the fridge, no?
0:22:49 > 0:22:51This is ridiculous.
0:22:51 > 0:22:55I'm dangling from a rock face all for a block of Cheddar.
0:22:55 > 0:23:00Just managed to do an abseil with two kilos of cheese on my back.
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Can't say that every day, can you?
0:23:03 > 0:23:07After travelling nearly 500 metres through these beautiful caverns,
0:23:07 > 0:23:10I've finally come to the place where the cheese is going
0:23:10 > 0:23:11to rest for the next 12 months.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14And just though here is cheese chamber expert Tanis.
0:23:16 > 0:23:17- Tanis, hi.- Oh, hi.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19- Good to meet you.- Nice to meet you.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21It's great to be here. How did you get here?
0:23:21 > 0:23:23There is a path just down there.
0:23:24 > 0:23:26OK, that's a little bit annoying.
0:23:26 > 0:23:27Oh, right.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30So, whereabouts is my cheese going to go? I'm very excited.
0:23:30 > 0:23:33- It's going to go right here. - Amazing! Shall we get it out?
0:23:33 > 0:23:35OK, I don't know if it's a bit battered and bruised.
0:23:35 > 0:23:36No, I'm sure it will be perfect.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38Here we go. Moment of truth.
0:23:38 > 0:23:39It's come a long way.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40There we go.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41Well done.
0:23:41 > 0:23:43Blue Peter cheese.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46So, why is it important that it's in here, Tanis?
0:23:46 > 0:23:48It's 11 degrees all year round.
0:23:48 > 0:23:49It has a perfect humidity
0:23:49 > 0:23:54and it has a nice, earthy flavour the caves bring out in it.
0:23:54 > 0:23:58Our BP Cheddar will take on those cavey tastes as it matures
0:23:58 > 0:24:0116 metres below the ground for the next year.
0:24:01 > 0:24:02Job done!
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Well, do you know what? I'm actually really proud of that.
0:24:05 > 0:24:07Cheese made with my own fair hands.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09That is extreme cheese.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Honestly, one of the best Blue Peter shoots I've ever done.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15- You ate a lot of cheese.- So much cheese!- So much cheese.- So much.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18- I had a cheese belly.- You still smell a bit like it.- No, stop it!
0:24:18 > 0:24:22Now onto something very serious, Radzi's missing wrestling outfit.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24- Are you OK, mate?- No!
0:24:24 > 0:24:25Not happy.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28- And the BAFTA for the best crying acting goes to...- He's good.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30No, he is genuinely quite upset actually
0:24:30 > 0:24:31because he loves that costume.
0:24:31 > 0:24:34You've been helping him out - thank you for that - on the website.
0:24:34 > 0:24:36Solving the clues, following the hints and we're not far away
0:24:36 > 0:24:39from finding out who has taken Radzi's beloved costume.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40- You OK?- Do you know what?
0:24:40 > 0:24:42- Fortunately, you haven't been doing it alone.- Oh, mate.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44You've been doing it with the master of mysteries.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46Welcome to Blue Peter, Robin Stevens.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52- Hi, Robin. Welcome to the show. - Hello.
0:24:52 > 0:24:55- Welcome to Blue Peter, Robin.- Hello. - Because you're here, I'm happy.- OK.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57So, before we even talk about the wrestling costume,
0:24:57 > 0:24:58let's talk about that lovely book.
0:24:58 > 0:25:00Yeah, so this is The Guggenheim Mystery.
0:25:00 > 0:25:03It's the sequel to Siobhan Dowd's The London Eye Mystery.
0:25:03 > 0:25:04She really wanted to write it
0:25:04 > 0:25:08but sadly she passed away before she could, so I have been asked to
0:25:08 > 0:25:11write it in her stead and I really hope I've done her proud with it.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13That's a tough thing to do, isn't it? And a big responsibility.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16Where do you start with doing something like that?
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Well, I kind of had to start with the title
0:25:18 > 0:25:19because that was all Siobhan had left me.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21We knew she wanted to call it The Guggenheim Mystery,
0:25:21 > 0:25:23but we didn't know anything else about it
0:25:23 > 0:25:26so I had to use my mystery planning brain to make everything else up.
0:25:26 > 0:25:27So, what can you tell us
0:25:27 > 0:25:29about where that mystery planning brain took you?
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Yeah, so, it's set in New York. It's set in the Guggenheim Museum.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36A boy called Ted Sparks goes there and while he's there,
0:25:36 > 0:25:37a painting is stolen.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39He has to become a detective to get it back.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41It sounds super intense.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43But this feels like the perfect time
0:25:43 > 0:25:46- to talk about my missing wrestling costume.- Yes.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48So all we knew is two weeks ago in my dressing room,
0:25:48 > 0:25:50it went missing, never to be seen again.
0:25:50 > 0:25:52Who were the five suspects again?
0:25:52 > 0:25:57So, the five suspects were Katie Thistleton, Hacker T Dog,
0:25:57 > 0:26:00Barney, Lindsey and, of course, you.
0:26:00 > 0:26:02This is...
0:26:02 > 0:26:04- I'm tense.- I know, I know.
0:26:04 > 0:26:07Now, we know it wasn't you and it wasn't Hacker.
0:26:07 > 0:26:09- What?- Katie. - Three suspects...
0:26:09 > 0:26:10Katie Thistleton!
0:26:10 > 0:26:16..and I can reveal that the person who stole Radzi's outfit is...
0:26:16 > 0:26:19- Barney. - Katie Thistleton... Oh, what?!
0:26:21 > 0:26:23- Barney!- What?
0:26:23 > 0:26:26- Barney, no! - What?- No!
0:26:26 > 0:26:30- What, mate? What? I didn't. What? - Where is the costume?
0:26:35 > 0:26:36Oh, my goodness!
0:26:36 > 0:26:38I wanted to be like you, OK?
0:26:38 > 0:26:39Well...
0:26:40 > 0:26:43Well, you know, you got to go to WrestleMania.
0:26:43 > 0:26:46I would have got away with it if it wasn't for you, you pesky author.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48- See, I told you it wasn't me, Radz! - Barney.- What?
0:26:48 > 0:26:50- I'm not angry.- That's good.
0:26:50 > 0:26:52- I'm just disappointed.- Why?
0:26:52 > 0:26:53OK, while these two make up, Robin,
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- thank you so much for coming on the show.- Thank you.
0:26:55 > 0:26:58- Robin, everyone. - APPLAUSE
0:26:58 > 0:27:00Amazing. Right, then, down to business.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03This costume smells like beef, by the way.
0:27:03 > 0:27:05OK, I want to see ponies on roller-skates.
0:27:05 > 0:27:07That's a given. I also want to see the Red Arrows
0:27:07 > 0:27:09fly through those doors and go out those doors.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11- What are you doing? - My Purple badge form.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13- Why?- Well, it's my last show in a couple of weeks, isn't it?
0:27:13 > 0:27:15So I'm filling out my Purple badge form so that
0:27:15 > 0:27:17- I can decide what's going to be on my last show.- Cheeky.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19- That's a great shout. - How do you spell velociraptor?
0:27:19 > 0:27:20OK, while Barney does that,
0:27:20 > 0:27:23it's time to reveal where little Shelley was hiding.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25She was actually on Toby's guitar.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28There she is. It was quite a hard one this week.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30If you are wondering whether it's you who spotted Shelley,
0:27:30 > 0:27:33head to Fan Club straight after the show and find out.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Lindsey gets gunged in beans.
0:27:35 > 0:27:36Now, though, playing us out,
0:27:36 > 0:27:40would you please give a huge welcome to Toby? What a legend.
