7:33:13 > 7:33:17- Swimming goggles.- Check! - Trainers?- Check.
7:33:17 > 7:33:19- Cycling helmets. BOTH:- Check!
7:33:19 > 7:33:22I think Team Blue Peter are officially ready.
7:33:22 > 7:33:24That's because today,
7:33:24 > 7:33:28Blue Peter are launching the 2014 Sport Relief campaign,
7:33:28 > 7:33:30and we want you to get involved.
7:33:30 > 7:33:32What's this for, then?
7:33:32 > 7:33:35- You, me, live pancake-off later in the show!- Bring it!
7:33:35 > 7:33:37BLOWS WHISTLE
7:33:51 > 7:33:54CHEERING
7:33:54 > 7:33:56Hello, hello, hello, hello!
7:33:56 > 7:33:59We are very excited in the studio today,
7:33:59 > 7:34:01because it's only four weeks
7:34:01 > 7:34:03until the start of Sport Relief 2014.
7:34:03 > 7:34:05We want you to be part of Team Blue Peter.
7:34:05 > 7:34:07Over the next few weeks,
7:34:07 > 7:34:10we'll be taking part in some cool challenges,
7:34:10 > 7:34:12which hopefully will get you cheering
7:34:12 > 7:34:15- and inspired to get involved. - That's right.
7:34:15 > 7:34:17This year, you can swim, run, or cycle,
7:34:17 > 7:34:20and that's all between Friday the 21st
7:34:20 > 7:34:23and Sunday the 23rd of March, so make sure you're watching.
7:34:23 > 7:34:26We'll be doing challenges involving those sports.
7:34:26 > 7:34:29- It'll be fun. BOTH:- It really is.
7:34:29 > 7:34:31- That was amazing. - Thanks, Barney.
7:34:31 > 7:34:33Follow me. There are words on sticks.
7:34:33 > 7:34:36Would consider yourself a "smellfungus"?
7:34:36 > 7:34:37What about a "ninnyhammer"?
7:34:37 > 7:34:40Stay tuned to find out what these mean.
7:34:40 > 7:34:42- It's funny.- Very funny.
7:34:42 > 7:34:45Next week is Shrove Tuesday, which means it's...
7:34:45 > 7:34:47- BOTH:- Pancake day! Yes, indeed.
7:34:47 > 7:34:50And in Blue Peter, we'll have Lindsey versus Barney
7:34:50 > 7:34:52in the Blue Peter bake-off!
7:34:52 > 7:34:55Check out my protruding pancake pecs. Leave it out.
7:34:55 > 7:34:57All right, Grandad's lonely.
7:34:57 > 7:34:59Let's talk about who will be judging.
7:34:59 > 7:35:04Aaron Craze from Junior Bake Off, and the current champion - Harry.
7:35:04 > 7:35:07Can't wait till they try the best pancake in the world - mine.
7:35:07 > 7:35:11I don't know about that, Barney. You've got your recipe ready.
7:35:11 > 7:35:13- You're going for sweet.- Yep.
7:35:13 > 7:35:17I'll go for savoury, and probably win. But we want to hear from you.
7:35:17 > 7:35:21What's your ultimate pancake filling? My own camera shot!
7:35:21 > 7:35:24What would you like to have in your pancake?
7:35:24 > 7:35:25Get in touch at:
7:35:25 > 7:35:28We'll read out as many as we can later. Radzi, what would you have?
7:35:28 > 7:35:31Chocolate, syrup, cream, mango...
7:35:31 > 7:35:35- Whoa, sugar overload! - You can do whatever you want.
7:35:35 > 7:35:38- Calm down.- The sky is the limit. - What would you go for?
7:35:38 > 7:35:40I'd tell you, but I'm going to make it today.
7:35:40 > 7:35:43- You're going down, Russell. - Whatever.
7:35:43 > 7:35:45I'll let my pancake do the talking.
7:35:45 > 7:35:48Less fighting talk. More Sport Relief.
7:35:48 > 7:35:50Now, on behalf of Team Blue Peter,
7:35:50 > 7:35:54ten weeks ago I started my training for a swimming challenge
7:35:54 > 7:35:55in freezing temperatures.
7:35:55 > 7:35:57Now, there are two big problems -
7:35:57 > 7:36:01I'm not that strong a swimmer, and I HATE the cold!
7:36:01 > 7:36:06I've been given a huge challenge for Sport Relief.
7:36:06 > 7:36:07That challenge -
7:36:07 > 7:36:11to complete a one-mile open-water swim in the Lake District.
7:36:11 > 7:36:13Are you being serious?
7:36:13 > 7:36:16Today, that challenge begins,
7:36:16 > 7:36:19as I get my first experience of open water.
7:36:19 > 7:36:21Please don't try this at home.
7:36:21 > 7:36:24Open-water swimming is extremely dangerous.
7:36:24 > 7:36:28I'm going to be trained and monitored at all times by an expert.
7:36:28 > 7:36:30- Colin, pleasure to meet you. - You too.
7:36:30 > 7:36:32My name's Colin Hill.
7:36:32 > 7:36:34I have swum the Channel, the Gibraltar Straight,
7:36:34 > 7:36:37the Hellespont, which is from Asia to Europe.
7:36:37 > 7:36:40I've swum from Italy to Sicily. Swimming, for me, is everything.
7:36:40 > 7:36:44It's tough when you first start. There is no way round it.
7:36:44 > 7:36:47I am going to get in there. I'm definitely getting in.
7:36:47 > 7:36:50Oh, yeah. We are not discussing that!
7:36:50 > 7:36:51- Let's do it.- OK, come on.
7:36:51 > 7:36:55'Rad's got a big challenge ahead of him. He's going to'
7:36:55 > 7:36:59try and complete a long-distance swim, in Windermere, in February.
7:36:59 > 7:37:01'This is what we call "extreme winter swimming".'
7:37:01 > 7:37:04For him to get prepared, he's got a lot of work ahead of him.
7:37:04 > 7:37:08'He's so fit that he'll have very little body fat.'
7:37:08 > 7:37:10He will find that he's losing heat quite quickly.
7:37:10 > 7:37:12'If he's not up to the standard'
7:37:12 > 7:37:15in February, then I will not allow him to get into the water.
7:37:15 > 7:37:17Into the water.
7:37:18 > 7:37:21You can't be serious!
7:37:22 > 7:37:26- You've nearly got your knees in. - Argh! Ah-ah! That is SO painful.!
7:37:26 > 7:37:28Wow, Colin!
7:37:28 > 7:37:29Eeh!
7:37:29 > 7:37:31'Imagine sitting in the bath'
7:37:31 > 7:37:35and it is freezing cold and having to put your head under. It's awful.
7:37:35 > 7:37:38OK, get some air in. Just splash your face in the water.
7:37:39 > 7:37:45- OK, good.- Argh!- Just duck down, get your shoulders in the water
7:37:45 > 7:37:48- and come back up. - Oh, this isn't going to happen!
7:37:48 > 7:37:50Your body and your brain are trying to get you out of that water.
7:37:50 > 7:37:53'You have got to try and control that.'
7:37:53 > 7:37:58- Good man, good man! Brilliant! OK, now, let's...- Ohhhhhh!
7:37:58 > 7:38:02Anything over a few minutes in there and you'll get to hypothermia.
7:38:02 > 7:38:05Try and do a little bit of breaststroke now, OK? Count of three.
7:38:05 > 7:38:09- Just swim. - One, two, three...and off you go.
7:38:09 > 7:38:13You've done it. That's it. Head up. Control your breathing. Breathe out.
7:38:13 > 7:38:16There is a shock system. He'll be short of breath.
7:38:16 > 7:38:20'He'll have trouble controlling how he swims and, mentally,'
7:38:20 > 7:38:22he's got to just try and keep himself in the water.
7:38:22 > 7:38:25- This is really painful. - Turn around there.
7:38:25 > 7:38:27Why on Earth do you do this, Colin?!
7:38:27 > 7:38:29For your first time, this is brilliant.
7:38:29 > 7:38:31My feet don't work.
7:38:33 > 7:38:34'That was awful!
7:38:34 > 7:38:37'I have never experienced cold like that.
7:38:37 > 7:38:40'Now I need to wrap up warm and get inside immediately.'
7:38:40 > 7:38:43'There's a lot of potential there, but a lot of work to be done.'
7:38:43 > 7:38:47How far he can go, that remains to be seen, to be honest.
7:38:53 > 7:38:57'But I'm not giving up, so the training continues.'
7:38:57 > 7:38:59He did well to get in the cold water.
7:38:59 > 7:39:02He did a little bit of swimming, but to be honest,
7:39:02 > 7:39:05I was a little bit concerned about his swimming ability.
7:39:05 > 7:39:09That's why I have decided that I want to see him in a pool today.
7:39:09 > 7:39:12Let's get you in the water. Let's get going.
7:39:14 > 7:39:17Try and stay relaxed. Nice long strokes.
7:39:17 > 7:39:19'I naturally swim breaststroke,
7:39:19 > 7:39:22'but Colin wants me to work on my front crawl,
7:39:22 > 7:39:26'as in near-freezing temperatures, speed will be of the essence.'
7:39:26 > 7:39:29I want to have more than one stroke up our sleeve.
7:39:29 > 7:39:32'This challenge just got even tougher,
7:39:32 > 7:39:35'as front crawl is my weakest stroke.'
7:39:35 > 7:39:40I'll be honest with you - I am absolutely shattered.
7:39:40 > 7:39:41Don't tell Colin!
7:39:41 > 7:39:43'This training will help my muscle memory.
7:39:43 > 7:39:48'I have to get the technique right and do it over and over again,
7:39:48 > 7:39:51'cos when I get in the water, my brain will switch off
7:39:51 > 7:39:53'and my body will need to take over.'
7:39:53 > 7:39:55Now, it's going to be the mile swim.
7:39:55 > 7:39:58Take your marks...go!
7:39:58 > 7:40:03'Here goes... 32 lengths of this Olympic-size pool.'
7:40:03 > 7:40:05It is going to be a bit of hard work for him,
7:40:05 > 7:40:07cos I want him to swim a mile and get a base time.
7:40:07 > 7:40:09Go!
7:40:09 > 7:40:12If he takes over an hour, I am afraid that will be too long.
7:40:12 > 7:40:16Your time was 42 minutes, 30 seconds.
7:40:19 > 7:40:21That's the first bit out of the way.
7:40:21 > 7:40:25I know I can do a mile and, now, it's on to the cold water.
7:40:29 > 7:40:31I'm on the way to the Lake District,
7:40:31 > 7:40:35to do my very first open-water swim. I'm going to swim half a mile.
7:40:35 > 7:40:37Huge mixed emotions.
7:40:37 > 7:40:40It's going to be freezing and I don't know how I'm going to respond.
7:40:40 > 7:40:42We'll see how I get on!
7:40:43 > 7:40:45I am dreading this!
7:40:45 > 7:40:48'It would have been impossible to choose a worse day.'
7:40:48 > 7:40:50I am cold in my coat!
7:40:52 > 7:40:54That is SO cold!
7:40:54 > 7:40:57I don't want to play any more!
7:40:57 > 7:40:58'But I had to.
7:40:58 > 7:41:00'Colin was making sure of that!'
7:41:00 > 7:41:03Ooh, no, no, no, no, no, no!
7:41:03 > 7:41:07'Windermere is the largest natural lake in England -
7:41:07 > 7:41:09'and one of the coldest.
7:41:09 > 7:41:11'It was formed when two glaciers melted,
7:41:11 > 7:41:12'over 13,000 years ago.'
7:41:12 > 7:41:14Three, two, one...
7:41:14 > 7:41:15and go.
7:41:16 > 7:41:20- That's good, that's good. - Oh, it's cold! It's got even colder!
7:41:20 > 7:41:22OK, do a bit of front crawl now.
7:41:22 > 7:41:25'My goal today - half a mile.'
7:41:25 > 7:41:27You are doing really well. Really good.
7:41:27 > 7:41:30'I have made it halfway, but then disaster strikes.
7:41:30 > 7:41:34'The cold begins to take hold.'
7:41:34 > 7:41:36Stay with me. Come on, let's go. Stay with me here.
7:41:36 > 7:41:39How are you feeling, Radzi?
7:41:39 > 7:41:44I feel as though my brain... I don't know.
7:41:44 > 7:41:47- I'm not enjoying it. - You are doing really well.
7:41:47 > 7:41:49OK, date of birth, date of birth?
7:41:49 > 7:41:52- 4th, 9, 86.- OK, good.
7:41:52 > 7:41:55'Colin asks me questions to check I am OK to carry on,
7:41:55 > 7:41:57'but even my head has gone numb.'
7:41:57 > 7:41:58Nearly there!
7:42:05 > 7:42:07'I've done it.'
7:42:07 > 7:42:09Arghhhhhh!
7:42:09 > 7:42:11- I know how you feel.- Ah!
7:42:13 > 7:42:16I wanted to give up after about five minutes.
7:42:16 > 7:42:19I thought, there's no way I can do this! There is no way at all.
7:42:19 > 7:42:21But you keep on going and you keep on paddling.
7:42:22 > 7:42:24But I made it!
7:42:24 > 7:42:29Half a mile in the bag - and I'm shattered.
7:42:29 > 7:42:31Ehhhhh!
7:42:32 > 7:42:36- Wow!- I cannot get across to you just how cold that was.
7:42:36 > 7:42:39Now, I need to say this. I had an expert, Colin Hill.
7:42:39 > 7:42:43He is an absolute legend. Please only ever try open-water swimming
7:42:43 > 7:42:46if you have got an expert, too. Part two will see me getting into
7:42:46 > 7:42:49an ice bath, in ten minutes' time, so keep watching.
7:42:49 > 7:42:52If you want to get involved in Sport Relief,

7:43:01 > 7:43:05Hopefully, Team Blue Peter, us three, have inspired you to get involved.
7:43:05 > 7:43:09You are good at getting involved. Have a look at the Big Badge Wall.
7:43:09 > 7:43:13It's covered in all of your post. 1,651 of you have got in touch
7:43:13 > 7:43:17by letter or e-mail this week. Thank you so much. This is from Kia.
7:43:17 > 7:43:21She is 11, from Suffolk. It is Shelly coming out of her little home.
7:43:21 > 7:43:23A little nibble on the carrot. I like that a lot.
7:43:23 > 7:43:25And look at this, from Lily.
7:43:25 > 7:43:28It is a hibernation box and Shelley is in there,
7:43:28 > 7:43:32just snoozing away. Actually, she will not need that any more,
7:43:32 > 7:43:33cos Shelley woke up.
7:43:33 > 7:43:37- Yeah!- There she is. She woke up last week. She is out of hibernation
7:43:37 > 7:43:40and she is back, on her sofa, watching Blue Peter.
7:43:40 > 7:43:44The first thing she did was rip up her newspaper! What is she like?!
7:43:44 > 7:43:48This is a picture from Kia in Kent. She was inspired by the news report
7:43:48 > 7:43:50I did about how to earn a Blue Peter badge.
7:43:50 > 7:43:54- I'm like a newsreader.- You're very serious.- You have a spotty shirt,
7:43:54 > 7:43:57- which suit you.- I was the weatherman that day.- Yes!- You were.
7:43:57 > 7:44:01Now, feast your eyes on this, from Varmizan, in Middlesex.
7:44:01 > 7:44:04He's drawn a supersonic plane. How many gadgets are on that?!
7:44:04 > 7:44:08- Barney, you've got to love that. - I want one!- Blue Peter Airlines,
7:44:08 > 7:44:09as well. We like that.
7:44:09 > 7:44:13If your picture is not on the Big Badge Wall, fear not, my friends.
7:44:13 > 7:44:17Jump online to the usual website, as we have an online gallery there.
7:44:17 > 7:44:20- Check and see if your one is there. - Thank you for getting in touch.
7:44:20 > 7:44:23Don't be surprised if your wink-a-peeps are dumfuzzled
7:44:23 > 7:44:26by what you are about to see. What that means is,
7:44:26 > 7:44:28don't be confused by what you are about to see.
7:44:28 > 7:44:31These are words that you've probably not seen before,
7:44:31 > 7:44:35but they are words that are used in the English language.
7:44:35 > 7:44:38Apparently, words like these are starting to become endangered
7:44:38 > 7:44:41and will become extinct if we don't keep using them.
7:44:41 > 7:44:44To tell us why we need to keep these words, a big cheer, please,
7:44:44 > 7:44:45for Safiyah Shah.
7:44:45 > 7:44:46CHEERING
7:44:46 > 7:44:48- Hi, Safiyah.- Hi.
7:44:48 > 7:44:51- I was told you are a word enthusiast.- I am, I love words.
7:44:51 > 7:44:53You have come on to save these words from extinction.
7:44:53 > 7:44:56Let's talk about the words. Are they real words?
7:44:56 > 7:45:00- Did people used to use them, but don't any more?- Exactly.
7:45:00 > 7:45:03They are real words, people dud use them, and if we don't use them,
7:45:03 > 7:45:05they will die out for ever.
7:45:05 > 7:45:09- Some of your favourites? You have - some here. There is other great ones,
7:45:09 > 7:45:12like zamzodden, which means overcooked and overstewed.
7:45:12 > 7:45:16- Very good for school dinners. - I'll use that later on!- Yeah.
7:45:16 > 7:45:19And sluberdegullion, which is another fantastic word.
7:45:19 > 7:45:22sounds great. It means a wretch or a scoundrel.
7:45:22 > 7:45:24- I love it.- You can insult someone and they don't know.
7:45:24 > 7:45:28It is not very obvious, by looking at those words, what they mean.
7:45:28 > 7:45:32We thought we'd play a little game. We need some help from our very
7:45:32 > 7:45:34special studio guests. In you come, guys!
7:45:34 > 7:45:37CHEERING
7:45:37 > 7:45:40Welcome to the show. Smiley faces and yellow tops.
7:45:40 > 7:45:42- Say hello to Safiyah and likewise.- Hi!
7:45:42 > 7:45:44Safiyah will read out a description for the words
7:45:44 > 7:45:47you can see. What you have to do is run over to the word you think
7:45:47 > 7:45:50she is describing. You have got five seconds
7:45:50 > 7:45:52or the time it takes to hear this noise...
7:45:52 > 7:45:56ROCK MUSIC PLAYS
7:45:56 > 7:45:58KLAXON BLARES
7:45:58 > 7:46:00High-five, to seal the deal. OK, first word, please.
7:46:00 > 7:46:02The first word means very well dressed,
7:46:02 > 7:46:04- very smartly-dressed. - Five seconds. Go!
7:46:04 > 7:46:10If you want to play this at home, pick the word you think it might be.
7:46:10 > 7:46:12- KLAXON BLARES - It's unanimous, almost.
7:46:12 > 7:46:14Very good. It is 'snogly gear'd'.
7:46:14 > 7:46:18'Snogly gear'd' means well dressed. Back to position.
7:46:18 > 7:46:19APPLAUSE
7:46:19 > 7:46:22And may I say, you are 'snogly gear'd' today.
7:46:22 > 7:46:24OK, next description, please.
7:46:24 > 7:46:26The second word means somebody who grumbles.
7:46:26 > 7:46:29- Someone who's always moany and grumbly.- Go!
7:46:29 > 7:46:31Somebody who grumbles.
7:46:31 > 7:46:33BEEPING
7:46:33 > 7:46:37The right answer is 'smellfungus', so well done.
7:46:37 > 7:46:40Congratulations! My dad is a smellfungus.
7:46:40 > 7:46:42Back to position, for the final word.
7:46:42 > 7:46:44OK, how are you doing at home?
7:46:44 > 7:46:46Are you getting any of these right?
7:46:46 > 7:46:50- Thank you to our beautiful assistant, Lindsey.- OK.
7:46:50 > 7:46:53- Final one.- The final word means exhausted, tired out.
7:46:53 > 7:46:55Five seconds, go!
7:46:58 > 7:47:00BEEPING
7:47:00 > 7:47:04- It was 'ramfeezled'.- If you're exhausted, you're 'ramfeezled'.
7:47:04 > 7:47:07A round of applause, they did very well.
7:47:07 > 7:47:08APPLAUSE
7:47:08 > 7:47:12Congratulations to you at home. Let's talk about the other two.
7:47:12 > 7:47:16- 'Groak'.- 'Groak' is to stare longingly at someone else's food
7:47:16 > 7:47:20- when they're eating.- We all do that. Barney doesn't share food.
7:47:20 > 7:47:25- And 'ninnyhammer'.- 'Ninnyhammer' is like nincompoop or twit!
7:47:25 > 7:47:28- Somebody who's a bit twitty. - Funny you should say that.
7:47:28 > 7:47:31- Safia, thanks for coming in. - My pleasure.- Well done.
7:47:31 > 7:47:34And now, over to our very own 'ninnyhammer'.
7:47:34 > 7:47:37- Radzi!- I knew it!- I didn't mean it.
7:47:37 > 7:47:40We're friends, really.
7:47:40 > 7:47:42Now, earlier on in the show,
7:47:42 > 7:47:45you saw me attempt and complete my half mile
7:47:45 > 7:47:48in open water. It felt like it was never-ending,
7:47:48 > 7:47:50mainly because it hadn't ended.
7:47:50 > 7:47:54Luckily for me, I had a surprise guest - check this out.
7:47:54 > 7:47:57This journey so far has been tough.
7:47:57 > 7:48:00There have been highs and lows.
7:48:02 > 7:48:06And I've realised that I'm nowhere near ready.
7:48:09 > 7:48:12I continue to train and improve my technique,
7:48:12 > 7:48:15but my biggest worry is still the cold.
7:48:15 > 7:48:20There's a bit of self-doubt, which is why I want to bring him up here.
7:48:20 > 7:48:23To go into this time and get him back into the cold water.
7:48:23 > 7:48:25- How does that feel?- Arrrgh!
7:48:25 > 7:48:27Come on!
7:48:27 > 7:48:29'Colin keeps pushing me.
7:48:29 > 7:48:33'The more time I spend in the cold water, the better prepared I'll be.
7:48:33 > 7:48:37'But there's another way to feel the chill - an ice bath.'
7:48:37 > 7:48:41Top sport players use them to help their muscles recover quicker
7:48:41 > 7:48:45after a punishing work-out, so I've come to Man City Football Club
7:48:45 > 7:48:47to see exactly how the cold affects my body.
7:48:47 > 7:48:50- Are you looking forward to it? - As I'll ever be.
7:48:50 > 7:48:54So this is the heart rate monitor. I'll get your resting heart rate,
7:48:54 > 7:48:57your normal rate when you're not doing any activity.
7:48:57 > 7:49:00Cos we're about to go into a stressful situation,
7:49:00 > 7:49:04we expect that even now, it might begin to raise.
7:49:04 > 7:49:05So if we look at you now,
7:49:05 > 7:49:09you've a good resting heart rate at 75, so that's pretty normal.
7:49:09 > 7:49:12So you're not too worried about this?
7:49:12 > 7:49:14Um... How accurate is that thing?
7:49:14 > 7:49:17Well, in fact, it's beginning to...
7:49:17 > 7:49:20- It's 83. 89...- 93.
7:49:20 > 7:49:23You're making me nervous. Right, OK, I'll get in.
7:49:24 > 7:49:26Arrgh!
7:49:28 > 7:49:30That's not 12 degrees at all, is it?
7:49:33 > 7:49:36- That's that done. How are we...? - Let's start the timer.
7:49:36 > 7:49:38Ah! Oh!
7:49:38 > 7:49:39How long do you want?
7:49:39 > 7:49:44Six minutes. Longest six minutes of your life.
7:49:44 > 7:49:46Oh, my ankles throb!
7:49:48 > 7:49:49How long have we got?
7:49:49 > 7:49:51A minute and a half. OK.
7:49:51 > 7:49:55Oh! This is not pleasant! Oh!
7:49:56 > 7:49:57- Time's up.- Is it up?
7:49:57 > 7:50:00- Let's get you out.- OK, yes!
7:50:00 > 7:50:03Some interesting things happened before you entered the water.
7:50:03 > 7:50:06- Your heart rate shot up to 130. - Did it really?
7:50:06 > 7:50:10The equivalent of going from standing still to jogging.
7:50:10 > 7:50:15If just the anxiety, the fear of it makes my body work harder,
7:50:15 > 7:50:17as much as I can, if I try to focus my mind,
7:50:17 > 7:50:22- it might actually help me make it easier.- It's all in the mind.
7:50:22 > 7:50:26So there we go, my first ice bath over and, hopefully, my last.
7:50:26 > 7:50:29Next stop, an open-water relay.
7:50:29 > 7:50:31It is a lovely morning in Lake Windermere.
7:50:31 > 7:50:36I'll be joined by 600 people over the weekend who'll also take
7:50:36 > 7:50:38part in this open-water swim.
7:50:38 > 7:50:40It's 5.7 degrees...
7:50:40 > 7:50:42'But this lot don't seem bothered.
7:50:42 > 7:50:46'Today, my goal is to swim four 30-metre lengths in a relay
7:50:46 > 7:50:49'with another swimmer, but I've got a secret weapon.
7:50:49 > 7:50:52'Record-breaking ice-swim athlete Henri Kaarma.
7:50:52 > 7:50:56- 'And I've spotted a familiar face.' - You can do this.- Yeah.- You can do it.
7:50:56 > 7:50:58I don't know if I can, to be honest.
7:50:58 > 7:51:01- Go and get your swimming costume on.- Now?- Go on.
7:51:01 > 7:51:05'But there's a twist.' I'm going to be doing this race with him.
7:51:05 > 7:51:09I'm part of his relay team and he has absolutely no idea.
7:51:09 > 7:51:13Just met my relay partner, Henri Kaarma. Good to have you on board.
7:51:13 > 7:51:16I'll swim the first and the fourth leg.
7:51:16 > 7:51:18Henri will swim the second and the third.
7:51:20 > 7:51:22Radz, I'm doing it with you, mate.
7:51:22 > 7:51:24- Are you?- Yeah!- Are you really?! - Yeah!
7:51:24 > 7:51:28- Are you being serious?- I'm here, I've got my swimming costume on.
7:51:28 > 7:51:31Going to help you out, yeah!
7:51:31 > 7:51:33- TANNOY:- 'Blue Peter!'
7:51:33 > 7:51:36'So that's my team. But all too quickly, it's our turn.'
7:51:36 > 7:51:39- There we go!- Let's go.
7:51:39 > 7:51:40You can do it, Radzi!
7:51:40 > 7:51:42That's beyond cold!
7:51:44 > 7:51:46'Off we go!'
7:51:48 > 7:51:51He's just swum into the barrier!
7:51:51 > 7:51:53He was actually really quick!
7:51:56 > 7:51:58'The water was so cold.'
7:51:58 > 7:52:00Come on!
7:52:00 > 7:52:02'I was really starting to struggle.'
7:52:07 > 7:52:10- Don't go in that water. - Very good.- Ah!
7:52:10 > 7:52:15That is just the most painful, worst thing I've ever done.
7:52:16 > 7:52:20It was so nice having my friend do that with me as well.
7:52:20 > 7:52:23Once again, I'll say it. I had an expert, Colin, with me.
7:52:23 > 7:52:26He is a legend, so only try something like that
7:52:26 > 7:52:28if you've got an expert with you.
7:52:28 > 7:52:31When I swim, I get very hungry, but fortunately,
7:52:31 > 7:52:34on Tuesday is Pancake Day, which means lots of pancakes.
7:52:34 > 7:52:37Question is, savoury or sweet? What do you think,
7:52:37 > 7:52:40- savoury or sweet? - ALL: Savoury! Sweet!
7:52:40 > 7:52:43There's only one way to decide, with the...
7:52:43 > 7:52:44ALL: Bake off!
7:52:44 > 7:52:48Yes, we've got Lindsey and Barney going head to head.
7:52:48 > 7:52:51Lindsey's savoury, Barney is sweet. Lindsey, what is in your bowl?
7:52:51 > 7:52:54In my bowl. Oh, I'm eating...
7:52:54 > 7:52:57It's milk, egg and flour. We've been eating loads.
7:52:57 > 7:53:00All the details you need to make the perfect pancake
7:53:00 > 7:53:02are on the Blue Peter website...
7:53:04 > 7:53:07Lindsey, what filling are you going to have in yours?
7:53:07 > 7:53:10If there's any left, I'll go for lovely ham
7:53:10 > 7:53:12and nice, melty cheese.
7:53:12 > 7:53:14Lovely ham, melted cheese - a 'cham'.
7:53:14 > 7:53:18- Barney, what about you?- I'll go for the classic sweet pancake,
7:53:18 > 7:53:22so it'll have chocolate, some more chocolate and banana.
7:53:22 > 7:53:24- OK.- Classic combo.
7:53:24 > 7:53:28I'll help judge this, but I've got two experts alongside with me.
7:53:28 > 7:53:31Let's take a look at them in action.
7:53:31 > 7:53:34It's just cooked perfectly. What could we wish for more?
7:53:34 > 7:53:37- If it was served in a restaurant, I'd buy it.- Thank you.
7:53:37 > 7:53:42- It's really good.- Harry, you're the new Junior Bake Off champion!
7:53:53 > 7:53:56So it's time to give a huge Blue Peter welcome
7:53:56 > 7:53:58to TV presenter Aaron Craze
7:53:58 > 7:54:02and the Junior Bake Off Champion 2013, Harry!
7:54:02 > 7:54:04APPLAUSE
7:54:04 > 7:54:07Welcome to the show. Good to see you.
7:54:07 > 7:54:09We'll speak to you shortly. First, we need to start.
7:54:09 > 7:54:13You have two minutes to make your pancake and put it on a plate.
7:54:13 > 7:54:17Three, two, one, start baking! Now, of course at home,
7:54:17 > 7:54:21if you do attempt this, please only do so if you have an adult with you.
7:54:21 > 7:54:22That's very important.
7:54:22 > 7:54:28- Harry, you are the Junior Bake Off Champion.- Yeah.
7:54:28 > 7:54:31- How does that make you feel? - It's really weird, actually,
7:54:31 > 7:54:35cos the attention that you get outside of school and in school,
7:54:35 > 7:54:37it's mad.
7:54:37 > 7:54:41Exactly, and Aaron, you are a top TV chef, what advice would you
7:54:41 > 7:54:44have for people trying to make pancakes at home?
7:54:44 > 7:54:48- The perfect pancake.- We need that advice.- Quick, 30 seconds.
7:54:48 > 7:54:50It needs to be a cooler temperature.
7:54:50 > 7:54:54Don't get it stuck on the ceiling, Barney. We want to enjoy it.
7:54:54 > 7:54:56It's happened on Blue Peter before.
7:54:56 > 7:54:58It might happen again.
7:54:58 > 7:55:03- And what's your ultimate filling for a pancake?- Lemon and sugar.
7:55:03 > 7:55:05Lemon and sugar, keeping it simple.
7:55:05 > 7:55:09- I'm ready for a flip. - Are you?- I'm ready for a flip.
7:55:09 > 7:55:12Going for the flip. We'll do it at the same time.
7:55:12 > 7:55:16Oh, no! One, two, three...
7:55:16 > 7:55:17- Yes, oh, yes!- No!
7:55:17 > 7:55:20Look at that, I'm doing the double!
7:55:20 > 7:55:23You're not going to get any filling there. Go, go!
7:55:23 > 7:55:25Don't you all support Barney, please.
7:55:25 > 7:55:29You might need to see this. Barney's one is in half.
7:55:29 > 7:55:31No, no, no! No, no!
7:55:31 > 7:55:36Throw another one in, Barney, go, quick! Ten seconds, quick.
7:55:37 > 7:55:41- OK, you've got 35 seconds left. - No problem! No problem at all!
7:55:41 > 7:55:44Oh, Barney... All day, I've been really worried
7:55:44 > 7:55:48about the savoury pancake, cos let's face it, it's not the best,
7:55:48 > 7:55:52- but now, I'm feeling quite good about it.- This isn't fair.
7:55:52 > 7:55:55- It's nearly finished, Barney. - Well...
7:55:55 > 7:55:58While Barney does that, fix your eyes on the trophy.
7:55:58 > 7:56:02That is the Junior Bake Off trophy, right there. I love that.
7:56:02 > 7:56:06Thank you for bringing that. You've got ten seconds.
7:56:06 > 7:56:09Nine, eight, seven, six,
7:56:09 > 7:56:14five, four, three, two, one!
7:56:14 > 7:56:16BEEPING
7:56:16 > 7:56:20OK, OK, please turn off those hobs. Safety never takes the day off.
7:56:20 > 7:56:22Nice one(!)
7:56:22 > 7:56:25OK, we'll start with Lindsey's.
7:56:25 > 7:56:27No, no, I'm going... I'm going...
7:56:27 > 7:56:31You go for that. While you do that, we're going to start.
7:56:31 > 7:56:35- Perfect.- Pancake tarte Tatin. - Look at presentation, please.
7:56:35 > 7:56:37Harry, you got that, my friend.
7:56:37 > 7:56:40It's all about taste today.
7:56:40 > 7:56:45Dig in. It might be hot. I should have said that first, really.
7:56:45 > 7:56:47How does it taste, Harry?
7:56:47 > 7:56:50- With your mouth full. - Are you laughing about my pancake,
7:56:50 > 7:56:53- or is it so good you can't speak? - I don't know.
7:56:53 > 7:56:56He's an expert. He won Bake Off.
7:56:56 > 7:56:59Oh! That's hot, that's why he couldn't say anything.
7:56:59 > 7:57:03- Um... Not bad.- Cheesy?
7:57:03 > 7:57:06- Yes, and hammy.- But nice consistency. - It's not overcooked.
7:57:06 > 7:57:09It's not overcooked. Well spotted, Harry.
7:57:09 > 7:57:12I've made mine like Shelly the Turtle.
7:57:12 > 7:57:16It's come out of hibernation, it's a celebration pancake.
7:57:16 > 7:57:19I've gone for a pancake shell in a sweetie filling.
7:57:19 > 7:57:24- It's definitely... It's different, it's unique.- Yeah.
7:57:25 > 7:57:28It's a mess, Barney, you've got to be honest.
7:57:28 > 7:57:33OK, Aaron's gone in, I'll give you a hand, Harry.
7:57:33 > 7:57:37OK, you've got to be able to eat this, Harry.
7:57:37 > 7:57:40We can't tempt you like this. Go on, Harry.
7:57:40 > 7:57:43OK, I'm going to get the scoring devices.
7:57:43 > 7:57:45The audience are dying to know.
7:57:45 > 7:57:49- Go on, Harry.- What's not to like? It's chocolate and banana.
7:57:49 > 7:57:52What do you think, Harry? He's given a thumbs up.
7:57:52 > 7:57:55OK, it's either Barney or Lindsey.
7:57:55 > 7:57:58We're going to have our pans low. And decide with a face.
7:57:58 > 7:58:03Three, two, one... Show your pans. And it's Barney's!
7:58:04 > 7:58:07- Yes!- See, it really goes to show that anything is possible
7:58:07 > 7:58:12on Blue Peter. That's what we're all about. Yes. Sweet every time.
7:58:12 > 7:58:16- Thanks, guys.- Thank you so much for coming in. Congratulations.
7:58:16 > 7:58:19Aaron, Harry, thanks for coming in. Harry, you're a genius.
7:58:19 > 7:58:21Lovely, thank you.
7:58:21 > 7:58:24So, earlier on, we asked you to get in touch...
7:58:24 > 7:58:27We really are going to start a fire in the studio.
7:58:27 > 7:58:31We asked you to tell us what your favourite pancake ingredients are.
7:58:31 > 7:58:35I'm guessing we're going to be hot on the sweet fillings here.
7:58:35 > 7:58:38Hundreds of you have been getting in touch.
7:58:38 > 7:58:40Do you want to go first? Let's do it.
7:58:40 > 7:58:42- Look at the first one. - The first one.
7:58:42 > 7:58:46"I love having beans and tomato ketchup on my pancakes."
7:58:46 > 7:58:49That's from GrooveySeaHorse. You're a bit weird,
7:58:49 > 7:58:53- but I really, really like that idea. - Beans and ketchup!- I love beans.
7:58:53 > 7:58:55I'd try something different, I'd try that.
7:58:55 > 7:58:58BlueSillyAvocado says, "Fizzy strawberry sweets
7:58:58 > 7:59:01- "and some blueberries with honey." Yeah, you do.- Nice.
7:59:01 > 7:59:06GreenSeenJack says, "grated cheddar cheese and apple sauce."
7:59:06 > 7:59:09Apple sauce, that's where I went wrong, apparently.
7:59:09 > 7:59:13OK, OrangeChattyApricot says, "My favourite is..."
7:59:13 > 7:59:17"My favourite is chocolate spread and banana
7:59:17 > 7:59:20"because it tastes so good!"
7:59:20 > 7:59:22Tastes so good. I like that.
7:59:22 > 7:59:25Thank you for showing us your favourite pancakes.
7:59:25 > 7:59:30I can't believe that went so wrong. Next Thursday is World Book Day,
7:59:30 > 7:59:33so we'll announce the Blue Peter Book Award winners for 2014.
7:59:33 > 7:59:36We're going to dress up as our favourite characters.
7:59:36 > 7:59:38I've got my costume. Radz, have you got yours?
7:59:38 > 7:59:41- Mine is ready.- Brilliant.- You've both got yours sorted already?- Yeah.
7:59:41 > 7:59:43I haven't. I've narrowed it down to three.
7:59:43 > 7:59:46In fact, this is where you can help me out. Follow me.
7:59:46 > 7:59:49I've picked three that I think are going to be cool to dress up as.
7:59:49 > 7:59:52We've got the Mad Hatter, from Alice In Wonderland.
7:59:52 > 7:59:55Bilbo Baggins, he'd be quite cool to dress up as.
7:59:55 > 7:59:57And then there's Gangster Granny.
7:59:57 > 8:00:00So which do you think I should dress up as?
8:00:00 > 8:00:03It's a vote, so whichever character gets the most votes next week,
8:00:03 > 8:00:05I will dress up as.
8:00:05 > 8:00:07Votes close Tuesday 4th at 12 o'clock,
8:00:07 > 8:00:10so get in touch, get online and vote and I will, I promise,
8:00:10 > 8:00:13I will dress up as the character that gets the most votes next week.
8:00:13 > 8:00:15Can't wait to find out who it is.
