:00:16. > :00:20.you with terrific tricks in the air. With the FA Cup this weekend, we

:00:20. > :00:21.will introduce you to a green football team who already topped the

:00:21. > :00:28.tables when it comes the environment.

:00:28. > :00:38.And we have a group in the studio making their sunglasses and

:00:38. > :00:56.

:00:56. > :01:02.performing just for you. Hello! You're watching Blue Peter.

:01:02. > :01:06.That is Helen. Welcome. We are live. Before we talk about the exciting

:01:06. > :01:10.stuff on today, let's talk about the massive response post from you to

:01:10. > :01:18.us. We told you last week about how to mash up your faces using your

:01:18. > :01:24.phones, and you haven't disappointed us. Look at Isabella's top half and

:01:24. > :01:29.her dad's chin. She knows what she will look like in about 40 years.

:01:29. > :01:32.Anthony and France wasn't as the picture of their efforts. I did not

:01:32. > :01:37.use a smartphone. You don't need a phone to do this. They drew on a

:01:37. > :01:44.piece of paper. If you did not watch last week, you will not know that

:01:44. > :01:48.Helen sprang as a prize on me. I have entered you in a trombone

:01:48. > :01:57.competition on 24th May. You have a few weeks to learn a new instrument!

:01:57. > :02:02.You have to learn to play. You have got to be kidding!

:02:02. > :02:08.It is true, I will be in a combo competition. My skills are not up to

:02:08. > :02:13.standard yet, but I will show you how far I have got next week. Are

:02:13. > :02:18.your lips bruised? Helen doesn't know that there is a surprise for

:02:18. > :02:23.her at the end of today's show. Stay tuned to find out what that is.

:02:23. > :02:28.Loads of people have been in touch on the message boards. If you want

:02:28. > :02:33.in Courage Barney, join the message boards and leave him a supportive

:02:33. > :02:38.anecdote. Always keep a straight face. Funnily enough, that is what

:02:38. > :02:47.he always says to me. Another viewer says, don't be nervous, think of it

:02:47. > :02:50.as a really cool gadget. And there is a blooper on the website. It was

:02:50. > :02:57.my first lesson. Talking of surprises, why don't you get in

:02:57. > :03:03.touch today? Tell us about things that have surprised you. And what

:03:03. > :03:07.about your most embarrassing surprise? Barney and I love a

:03:07. > :03:12.challenge. But the next one, we literally went to new heights. 1000

:03:12. > :03:17.feet in the air, to be exact, but we were not in the aeroplanes. We were

:03:17. > :03:24.on top of them! For years, Blue Peter presenters

:03:24. > :03:28.have tried their hand at wing walking. And now, it is our turn.

:03:29. > :03:32.give us a taste for flying, we are having a warmup flight, but this is

:03:32. > :03:38.just the start. Over the years, Blue Peter presenters have taken to the

:03:38. > :03:41.skies on the wings of a plane. Six years ago, they attempted one of the

:03:41. > :03:45.hardest wing walking challenges, a high altitude high-5, but they

:03:45. > :03:50.failed because it was too windy. the wing walking challenge has been

:03:50. > :03:54.passed to us, and we are going more extreme. We are working with two of

:03:54. > :04:04.the best formation display pilots in the business. Vic, founder of this

:04:04. > :04:13.

:04:13. > :04:16.top British wing walking team. Martin, with more than 1200 hrs of

:04:16. > :04:19.flying between them, we are in safe hands. How did you start? Where did

:04:19. > :04:22.it come from? After the First World War, you had all these young guys

:04:22. > :04:24.who had learnt to fly and did not want to go back to their boring

:04:24. > :04:27.jobs. So a lot of them bought by planes and started giving rides.

:04:27. > :04:30.They turned up, and people would come running out, because no one had

:04:30. > :04:32.seen an aeroplane. After they had visited a few times, people were not

:04:32. > :04:35.so interested. So one of the guys decided, we are going to really get

:04:35. > :04:38.their attention and said to the mechanic, you climb out on the wing,

:04:38. > :04:43.and I will fly down the high street. So that was what wing walking was

:04:43. > :04:49.about. We are going to attempt a manoeuvre called a mirror pattern

:04:49. > :04:54.pass. How difficult is that? We will take off. Martin will then dive down

:04:54. > :05:04.to get some speed up. I will follow him down. He will pull up and then

:05:04. > :05:06.

:05:06. > :05:10.roll upside down. I am on the side then. I will steer in. I will slowly

:05:10. > :05:17.come up, so you can grab the bat. Martin will then roll out, and the

:05:17. > :05:21.job is done. Sounds simple, but doing it for real might be a bit

:05:21. > :05:26.harder. So we are getting some bat on past training from recessional

:05:26. > :05:31.wing walker Danielle. Here is the Batten I want you to pass to Barney.

:05:31. > :05:37.I want to test your reaction times. When I say pass, pass this to each

:05:37. > :05:47.other and you have to catch. Like a sprinter? Know, a gentle jog is all

:05:47. > :05:53.

:05:54. > :06:02.that is needed. OK!I have a question. Pass! It will be a lot

:06:02. > :06:07.faster than this. Pass! Since you are going to be passing a baton to

:06:07. > :06:11.each other at very high speeds, I now want you to work on your hand

:06:11. > :06:17.eye coordination. If I grabbed the baton, I will only get one chance,

:06:17. > :06:21.so my hand-I called a nation has to be spot on. -- my hand icon award a

:06:22. > :06:29.nation. On the last bit of training needs us to approach things from a

:06:30. > :06:33.different angle. One of us has to be upside down, and that is me! I can

:06:33. > :06:38.dangle safety upside down here for up to five minutes. On the wing, I

:06:38. > :06:43.will have just 15 seconds. After that, there is a real danger that

:06:43. > :06:48.few will not get to the engine on the plane will stop. It is not the

:06:48. > :06:58.most normal thing on Earth to do, but we will do this at 110 miles an

:06:58. > :06:59.

:06:59. > :07:02.hour. I can't wait!My vision has blurred! Easy.It is one thing

:07:02. > :07:06.passing a baton to Barney on the ground, but trying to 1000 feet in

:07:06. > :07:16.the air is trapped on top of a plane at 140 miles an hour dash that is a

:07:16. > :07:19.

:07:19. > :07:22.different story. See you soon Fir Park two. -- 4-part two. Now, time

:07:22. > :07:27.to introduce some swagger. I can hear some giggling in the distance.

:07:27. > :07:32.Before we meet Stooshe, let's remind ourselves why would they are one of

:07:32. > :07:38.the most talked about girl groups in the country right now. Girl band

:07:38. > :07:42.Stooshe are made up of three singers, all London born and bred.

:07:42. > :07:46.Two of them were talent spotted while shopping for clothes. They

:07:46. > :07:50.were joined by another, and the trio were formed. Still in their early

:07:50. > :07:54.20s, their achievements have been high on the pop success scale. The

:07:54. > :07:58.girls have released four singles and received two award nominations. They

:07:58. > :08:05.have also been nominated for Best British single at the Brits and have

:08:05. > :08:11.even supported Jennifer Lopez. Not bad going, ladies. And they are

:08:11. > :08:17.here. Please welcome! Stooshewelcome to Blue Peter,

:08:17. > :08:21.ladies. Sounded like you were having a laugh in there. We were.Your

:08:21. > :08:26.single is out on Sunday and you will perform it for us later. What is it

:08:26. > :08:34.about? It is about when you are dating somebody and they have let

:08:34. > :08:39.their manners go. Not opening doors for you. Standards are slipping.

:08:39. > :08:43.Let's talk about your name. Where did it come from? It is a word from

:08:43. > :08:49.London which we all liked and have a lot of different meanings. So we

:08:49. > :08:54.added the word she on the end for female, girl Power. You are stylish

:08:54. > :08:58.ladies. We saw a picture of you that inspired us to do a Blue Peter

:08:58. > :09:02.make, so there you are, wearing funky sunglasses. We thought we

:09:02. > :09:06.would do that today. Here is your inspiration. Follow me, and we will

:09:06. > :09:15.show you how to make your very own designer sunglasses. All the details

:09:15. > :09:20.are on the loopy to website. We need to work out the occasion we will be

:09:20. > :09:24.wearing the sunglasses at. Because summer is coming up, I am thinking

:09:24. > :09:29.some of our festivals. If you are stuck for ideas, a great way to come

:09:29. > :09:37.up with some is to do your own mood board. Cut things out from magazines

:09:37. > :09:41.and stick them on the big board. Just do a mix and match. You can

:09:41. > :09:45.take a new pair of sunglasses or an old pair, it is up to you, but get

:09:45. > :09:53.permission if you are going to Nick your mum 's. Use some sandpaper to

:09:53. > :09:57.file down the frames. Be careful to file down the frames, not the

:09:57. > :10:02.lenses. Then you can pick up the bits you want to stick on. We have

:10:02. > :10:09.sweets, flowers, football stickers. I like the flowers. I like the

:10:09. > :10:13.sweets. I like the rainbows. I will ask you some questions while you are

:10:13. > :10:18.sticking and decorating. We have had hundreds of messages from the guys

:10:18. > :10:24.at home. One viewer says, what do you love best about being in a band

:10:24. > :10:29.together? Performing with each other is fun, because you bounce off each

:10:29. > :10:36.other and there is good chemistry on stage. You seem like a genuinely

:10:36. > :10:44.good friends. We are, and you have to be. Another viewer says, what has

:10:44. > :10:53.been your most embarrassing moment on stage? I was on stage and we were

:10:53. > :10:58.opening up for Jennifer Lopez. You know you have a microphone pack? My

:10:58. > :11:04.one fell off. I could not hear myself. So she came over as I was

:11:04. > :11:11.singing and lifted up my skirt and showed my knickers to everybody. She

:11:11. > :11:17.was trying to save me, which was nice, but... Another viewer says, or

:11:17. > :11:25.what advice would you give to someone who wants to be a singer?

:11:25. > :11:29.Practice, practice, practice. That is what you have got to do. And just

:11:29. > :11:36.know what kind of artist you want to be. The work ethic is the main

:11:36. > :11:41.thing. Don't worry about the blue, it will drive clear. Another viewer

:11:41. > :11:44.says, when you are about to perform, do you get nervous, and how do you

:11:44. > :11:49.calm your nerves? We always get nervous. If you don't, you don't

:11:49. > :11:55.care enough. We have a little handshake that comes us down. We

:11:55. > :12:05.can't show you, it is a secret. Thank you for your message board

:12:05. > :12:09.

:12:09. > :12:13.questions. Let's look at what we have got so far. Amazing. All the

:12:13. > :12:17.details you need are on the Blue Peter website. While you are there,

:12:17. > :12:19.if you want to see Stooshe doing some more performances, send them

:12:19. > :12:26.some suggest of support and they will scroll across the bottom of the

:12:26. > :12:31.screen later. If you decide to have a go, send us a photograph and let

:12:31. > :12:34.us know how you get on. This weekend, Wigan play Man City in the

:12:34. > :12:39.FA Cup final at Wembley. Did you know that when they turn the

:12:39. > :12:46.floodlights on at Wendy, it uses the same amount of energy that it would

:12:46. > :12:53.to power up 80,000 TVs? That is a lot. But we went to meet one

:12:53. > :12:57.football team who are making their own energy.

:12:57. > :13:02.Welcome to a football club with a difference. This stadium in

:13:02. > :13:08.Gloucestershire is home to a team... What are you doing? Painting

:13:08. > :13:12.the football green. Why?Because you said we were here to learn how to

:13:12. > :13:22.make football more green. Not the colour green, I met environmentally

:13:22. > :13:23.

:13:23. > :13:28.friendly green! O. OK.This is the home of Forest Green Rovers. I see

:13:28. > :13:32.what they did with the name. That is a coincidence. They have been called

:13:32. > :13:35.Forest Green for over a hundred years, but this could be the most

:13:36. > :13:41.environmentally friendly football club in the world. This is 100%

:13:41. > :13:48.recycled paper. That is their programme. And there is a game

:13:48. > :13:53.tonight. We need to get a move on. From floodlights to feeding the

:13:53. > :13:58.fans, football grounds use a lot of energy. But he, they have a plan to

:13:58. > :14:02.help. This club can produce its own energy. With solar panels on the

:14:02. > :14:06.roof of that stand, there is a wind turbine on the hill and on a day

:14:06. > :14:09.like today, they are both pretty efficient. Barney is standing on a

:14:09. > :14:13.pitch that even at the end of the season looks in good nick, and I

:14:13. > :14:19.think he is about to find out that it is even greener than it looks.

:14:19. > :14:22.Yes, because I have found the man responsible for the green grass,

:14:22. > :14:28.award-winning groundsman Stuart Ward. Let's talk about the pitch. It

:14:28. > :14:33.is not an ordinary pitch. What makes it an eco-pitch? We use organic

:14:33. > :14:37.products. Seaweed, waste from animals, waste from plants and

:14:37. > :14:40.calcium as well. We mix them together, depending what we want to

:14:40. > :14:43.do on the pitch throughout the season, and we make our own

:14:43. > :14:48.smoothies to feed the pitch. I love how the footballers have to stay

:14:48. > :14:54.healthy by eating and rigging well, and the pitch has to do the same.

:14:54. > :15:02.is an athlete in its own right. It is the 12th man. Jason, what are you

:15:02. > :15:06.cooking? We are making pizzas.How is the menu here different to a menu

:15:06. > :15:12.at most football clubs? We only serve vegetarian food. No burgers,

:15:12. > :15:18.no chicken? Burgers, but vegetarian burgers. I imagine there would be a

:15:18. > :15:22.riot if you said no pasties, no meat pies. How did the fans react?

:15:22. > :15:27.got used to eating vegetarian food. It is very nice. Meat production can

:15:27. > :15:31.be heavy on energy consumption, so serving locally sourced vegetarian

:15:31. > :15:35.food is another green step for Forest Green. What about the

:15:35. > :15:39.players? Has the new diet affected their performance? They have done

:15:39. > :15:49.well this year. They almost made the play-offs. But looks delicious.

:15:49. > :15:57.

:15:57. > :16:02.Sprinkle a bit of rocket over it. This looks delicious. It is hot.

:16:02. > :16:12.have found a gadget, you have got to come and see this. Helen, have you

:16:12. > :16:14.

:16:14. > :16:20.heard of the mobot? It is a robot which mows the grass. It does it

:16:20. > :16:24.using GPS. It goes on its merry way. It is amazing. It is charged by

:16:24. > :16:29.electric which is generated by solar panels on the roof. It is genius,

:16:29. > :16:35.and, if it gets into trouble, it sends the groundsman a text message.

:16:35. > :16:40.I want one. Now, we all expect foot all is to arrive in style, and it is

:16:40. > :16:46.no different here - it is just a different kind of style. All the

:16:46. > :16:51.cars are electric, so once they are parked up, you just plug them in. It

:16:51. > :16:54.is just the type of great green idea we like on Blue Peter. We love it

:16:54. > :16:58.when you get in touch and show us how created you have been,

:16:58. > :17:03.especially when it is something to do with the environment. If you do

:17:03. > :17:13.that, we can award you one of these, a green Blue Peter badge. I have got

:17:13. > :17:20.

:17:20. > :17:25.an idea. Come on. It is looking good. It is going well, not quite as

:17:25. > :17:29.amazing as we hoped, but it is the thought that counts. Time to take

:17:29. > :17:39.the stands for the game. I thought you said there was going to be no

:17:39. > :17:41.

:17:41. > :17:49.Greens on this. Everything is green. We are funny. Anyway, thank

:17:49. > :17:52.you very much. Last week, we interest you -- introduced you to a

:17:53. > :17:58.new feature, showing you how to Grow your own herbs, cook them and eat

:17:58. > :18:04.them. Take a look at what Toby from Exeter has done. Look at the size of

:18:04. > :18:09.his herb garden. Let's have a look at our much smaller plant pots.

:18:09. > :18:13.Briony, you have some basil, which is starting to sprout. It is early

:18:14. > :18:18.days, it has only been in for a week. I have planted some spring

:18:18. > :18:22.onions, which are starting to come through. So, we have left these in

:18:22. > :18:24.the sunshine in the window in the office, we have watered them and

:18:24. > :18:29.kept them well protected. Fingers crossed they will grow into

:18:29. > :18:38.something that we can cook and eat. If you want to join us, head over to

:18:38. > :18:42.the blue people website -- to the Blue Peter website, come on. Earlier

:18:42. > :18:52.on, you saw us training to be wing-walker Cormack. Back to that

:18:52. > :18:54.

:18:55. > :18:59.now. Suited and boosted, our time to wing-walk has come. First, we need

:18:59. > :19:08.to experience getting strapped to a wing and spun around in the sky. It

:19:08. > :19:11.is all part of the training. I am up first, while Barney watches from the

:19:11. > :19:17.ground in a minute, they will start performing the acrobatics, that's

:19:17. > :19:24.what Helen is going to have to do for us to pull off this mirror baton

:19:24. > :19:34.pass. He is now coming down, to get as much speed up as possible. Now,,

:19:34. > :19:35.

:19:35. > :19:45.he comes back, to go into the loop. That is absolutely amazing! So,

:19:45. > :19:49.that's the move Helen has got to be able to do today. OK, my turn in the

:19:49. > :19:59.sky, and it is amazing. Even if it does make me look like a bulldog

:19:59. > :20:11.

:20:11. > :20:18.invincible. But not for long. difficult is this? I would say it is

:20:18. > :20:21.up there at ten what should we focus on? First of all, you have got to be

:20:22. > :20:27.strong, to fight against the wind. Secondly, do not trot the button,

:20:27. > :20:37.hold on really tight. And number three, you have got to watch out for

:20:37. > :20:38.

:20:38. > :20:45.flies, because getting flies in your teeth is not so glamorous. Let's not

:20:45. > :20:54.drop the button. Let's do it.With 140 miles an hour of wind in our

:20:54. > :21:04.faces, it is difficult to speak, it is too windy to even hear us talk.

:21:04. > :21:06.

:21:06. > :21:12.My plane spins upside down, right above Barney. We increase our speed

:21:12. > :21:20.to try to catch up with Helen, but we just cannot get close enough.

:21:20. > :21:25.first attempt has failed. So, we fly around to try again. By now, my arms

:21:25. > :21:28.are burning, battling against the wind. I can see Helen right above

:21:29. > :21:34.me, but the gap between us is too big. There is nothing I can do to

:21:34. > :21:43.get closer. It is clear that something is wrong, so our pilots,

:21:43. > :21:47.Martin and Vic, decided to land. Why did it not work? It is not easy.

:21:47. > :21:51.Barney 's suit was playing up, causing a lot of drag, so I did not

:21:52. > :22:00.have the speed to catch up. So we are going to try to get Barney more

:22:00. > :22:06.streamlined, somehow. Are you sure it is all right? Absolutely fine,

:22:06. > :22:16.don't worry about it. Strapped and streamlined, we go for one last

:22:16. > :22:20.

:22:20. > :22:30.flight to try to nail this. It is so windy, I cannot even open my eyes.

:22:30. > :22:31.

:22:31. > :22:38.We are going for it... Almost... Almost... ! We were so close, but

:22:38. > :22:44.after a total of six attempts, our time is up. I have no idea how close

:22:45. > :22:51.we were. I was just holding it as steady as I could, until I felt as

:22:51. > :22:54.turn around again. It was so close. I am so annoyed! I am the least

:22:54. > :22:58.competitive person on the planet, but look at the slow motion, look at

:22:58. > :23:03.how close we got. It was so, so close, and that was our fifth

:23:03. > :23:12.attempt. It was just not going to happen it was so frustrating, but it

:23:12. > :23:19.was a good day, and thank you to everybody who helped as. Earlier

:23:19. > :23:24.on, we asked you to get in touch and let us know how you have been

:23:24. > :23:29.surprising your friends and family. Then said, my biggest surprise when

:23:29. > :23:33.I found out that my friend had told everybody my football team had won

:23:33. > :23:37.the league, and we actually got relegated. Amy says, my surprise was

:23:37. > :23:40.when my mum came home with my baby brother. And this one says, my

:23:41. > :23:45.brother turned off all the electricity, when we were watching a

:23:45. > :23:51.horror film and jumped out behind the sofa. I was really scared. That

:23:51. > :23:56.is a good one. Jacob said, I went go-karting and I was not looking

:23:56. > :24:00.where I was going and I crashed. We hope you are OK. Thank you very much

:24:00. > :24:05.forgetting in touch. As I mentioned, we have a surprise for Helen. Helen,

:24:29. > :24:37.soaks that up, here is what is happening next week. In honour of

:24:37. > :24:42.the brand-new film Epic, we will be looking at some slimy slugs. And we

:24:42. > :24:46.are going to be turning tinfoil into treasurer. And we will begin the new

:24:46. > :24:51.access behind-the-scenes at this world record roller-coaster, with 14

:24:51. > :25:00.loops. If you got in touch earlier with your comments for Stooshe, they

:25:00. > :25:10.will becoming across the screen now. Now, it is time for Stooshe, with
