:00:00. > :00:00.It's not stopping! There you go. Keep your stories
:00:00. > :00:00.coming in. Right now we need to get ready for live Blue Peter. Here it
:00:00. > :00:14.is. I've come to check out the
:00:15. > :00:20.rehearsals for the World Record Special! There's limbo, peas and
:00:21. > :00:39.even a record-breaking balloon artist in the studio. It's a snake!
:00:40. > :00:49.CHEERING Welcome to live Blue Peter. Today we
:00:50. > :00:54.are very very excited. It's our World Record Special and in one
:00:55. > :00:59.minute will be attempting our first live World Record! I'm excited.
:01:00. > :01:03.Let's rewind the clock one year when we smashed two world records. First
:01:04. > :01:10.of all with the most number of straws in hair. This year we are
:01:11. > :01:14.going to go one better, we are going to try and smashed three Guinness
:01:15. > :01:20.World Records during today's live shows. Check out surely this week.
:01:21. > :01:24.She's got a little Guinness World Record judging coat on! She's an
:01:25. > :01:34.adjudicator this week. If you can spot her anywhere, let us know!
:01:35. > :01:40.Hello darlings. I'm going to be taking part in my last ever BP film
:01:41. > :01:45.later on. I'll sit in a car and drive it fast. Know! You're not
:01:46. > :01:52.going anywhere! Tell people what's going on. I've officially ruptured a
:01:53. > :01:57.tendon in my hand. It's getting better every day and today is all
:01:58. > :02:02.about World Record! From broken hands to break records, let's head
:02:03. > :02:06.this way and meet our official World Record adjudicator 's this week!
:02:07. > :02:11.APPLAUSE Welcome to Blue Peter. This
:02:12. > :02:16.beautiful book, Guinness World Records 2018 is out today. If we do
:02:17. > :02:21.our records today, we could be in next year's book! What are we going
:02:22. > :02:27.to be doing live today? The first Guinness World Record attempt is for
:02:28. > :02:32.the tallest stack of hats worn on the head at once. I think we can do
:02:33. > :02:36.this. Hats must be balanced only on the head with no support. The
:02:37. > :02:40.measurement will be taken from the bottom of the first hat to the top
:02:41. > :02:44.of the last tap and they must remain on the head for a minimum of 30
:02:45. > :02:54.seconds. If they are touched then the attempt will be deemed invalid.
:02:55. > :02:58.The record is 40 centimetres. That's quite high above my head. I'm going
:02:59. > :03:06.to need some help in the form of Match of the Day Kickabout's John!
:03:07. > :03:09.CHEERING Welcome to BP. You both are very
:03:10. > :03:17.excited to try and set a World Record. What have you been up to? We
:03:18. > :03:23.are about to announce the five players that are going to appear in
:03:24. > :03:27.the new series on CBBC. Very cool competitions. I'm heading to the
:03:28. > :03:32.Manchester city Academy and hopefully meeting the Agueros and
:03:33. > :03:41.Kompanys of the future! We've got to get back to World Record chat. Here
:03:42. > :03:51.we go. There's no time is there? Let's start. Camp us down. Three,
:03:52. > :03:59.two, one, go. Get that on there. This one is going to go bed. I feel
:04:00. > :04:06.good about this. Try and get the peaks All Over The Place. At
:04:07. > :04:08.different angles?! Yes. Getting quite heavy! Let's see how Barney
:04:09. > :04:19.and Radzi are getting on. Let's get a huge round of applause
:04:20. > :04:24.for a man so important his parents named him twice, Ryan Tracey! As you
:04:25. > :04:30.can see he is a balloon modelling champion. That was very fast. How
:04:31. > :04:33.much preparation had you done? A lots of preparation. I've been doing
:04:34. > :04:40.this for 4-mac three years and made over 100,000 balloons. I've got to
:04:41. > :04:43.be the strongest and fastest I've ever been. You one Britain's Got
:04:44. > :04:54.Talent and there was an adjudicator who was so mean to you. Vicki, how
:04:55. > :05:00.are you? And very well thank you. What has Ryan got to do today? He's
:05:01. > :05:04.got to attend the same record which is the most balloon modelling
:05:05. > :05:08.sculptures in one minute. The record he set an Britain's Got Talent was
:05:09. > :05:13.13 so he's going to try and break it today. It's a big ask. The only
:05:14. > :05:18.balloons that will count will be ones that are fully completed. If
:05:19. > :05:22.they aren't complete I will have to discount but one. We have pre-the
:05:23. > :05:26.designs. If it doesn't match the design I will also have to
:05:27. > :05:34.disqualify that balloon. She is very scary! Are you happy with the rules?
:05:35. > :05:48.Are you ready to go? Three, two, one, go. That was a fish. He told me
:05:49. > :05:55.earlier on the earlier animals were the harder ones. We'll give you a
:05:56. > :05:59.time count as soon as we've got one. If you're wondering why there are
:06:00. > :06:03.two balloons on the table, sometimes the balloons pop. If a bullying pot
:06:04. > :06:14.he gets a second chance. That will cost him time. That's half the time
:06:15. > :06:21.gone. 30 seconds to go. Good luck. You're doing so well. Hundreds of
:06:22. > :06:34.billions he's made over the years. 15 seconds. You've got time... This
:06:35. > :06:41.could be a World Record. Yes! Well played. Well, well played. Come on
:06:42. > :06:45.over. We are going to find out if this was official. What would it
:06:46. > :06:49.mean to you if you got a new World Record? This would mean the world to
:06:50. > :06:54.me. Someone told me it's not about how you fall down, it's how you
:06:55. > :06:59.stand up. Today is my chance for redemption. I just hope I get that
:07:00. > :07:07.record. I want my wife and kids to be proud of me. My five kids are
:07:08. > :07:19.watching today. Hello! Can you tell us how he's done? As you can see you
:07:20. > :07:22.have completed all 14. I can confirm that all of them are valid so that
:07:23. > :07:35.is a brand-new Guinness World Record! APPLAUSE
:07:36. > :07:44.Congratulations. How do you feel? I feel amazing. I'm lost for words.
:07:45. > :07:50.I've got a Blue Peter Badge! Hats how you break a World Record! Back
:07:51. > :07:55.to Lindsey. I'm scared to move or even breathe. Jack is measuring the
:07:56. > :08:05.hats. It's time to find out how we got on. It feels quite big. It is
:08:06. > :08:09.quite big. It's a real hat-trick! In order for this to be a new Guinness
:08:10. > :08:16.World Record it has to be a minimum of 40 centimetres tall. I can now
:08:17. > :08:29.confirm that this stack of hats measures a total of... 63
:08:30. > :08:34.centimetres. CHEERING Well done boys! That's the EU as
:08:35. > :08:41.well! We've set two world records in about a minute! I feel great! What a
:08:42. > :08:47.happy day. Stick around for later! All of this makes me think of
:08:48. > :08:53.philosophy. Someone once said that and Blue Peter challenges go
:08:54. > :09:00.together like two peas in a pod! Radzi, wake-up! I don't want to go
:09:01. > :09:08.to school today. Come on, we've got to go and harvest the peas! Why am I
:09:09. > :09:14.asleep in a field?! It's a good question and the answer lies with
:09:15. > :09:18.these. Peas! The UK loves peas. With farms growing more than 2 billion
:09:19. > :09:22.portions per year. Which is incredible. But what's even more
:09:23. > :09:28.incredible is the race against time it takes to harvest them. A race
:09:29. > :09:32.that starts very early in the morning. I'm here in Lincolnshire in
:09:33. > :09:38.one of the biggest pea harvesting farms in the UK to help explain to
:09:39. > :09:45.you how peas go from here to your dinner plate. To help do that is pea
:09:46. > :09:49.grower, farmer and pea Guru Stephen Francis. Most of the 9000 peas that
:09:50. > :09:54.the average person eats in Britain are frozen. To get them in the
:09:55. > :09:59.freezer tasting as good as possible, Stephen's farm don't mess around. We
:10:00. > :10:04.are here to harvest these peas. As soon as they start rolling and the
:10:05. > :10:10.pot brakes, those particular peas Busby frozen in 150 minutes to
:10:11. > :10:15.retain the flavour. How do they do that? I'm going to follow the pea
:10:16. > :10:24.every step of the way. Time starts now. First up, picking. The guys
:10:25. > :10:32.here could pick their 5000 acres by hand, or... They could use some
:10:33. > :10:40.serious technology. This harvester can pick more than 300 peas every
:10:41. > :10:44.single second! I'm getting a peas of the action! We are against the clock
:10:45. > :10:48.to get them to the factory in time. We've got to be as efficient as we
:10:49. > :10:52.possibly can. You're almost trying to make sure you're using the full
:10:53. > :10:57.width of the harvester every single time you go up and every single time
:10:58. > :11:04.you go down. This bad boy doesn't just pick the peas, it sucks them
:11:05. > :11:08.out of their pods giving us the little green balls we all know and
:11:09. > :11:12.love. I've genuinely enjoyed watching you drive this thing. Would
:11:13. > :11:22.be possible for me to sit in the driver 's seat? Not a problem. Your
:11:23. > :11:26.harvesting peas! Keep it straight. The reason I can't talk if this is
:11:27. > :11:32.like when you first learn to ride a bike. It takes all of your
:11:33. > :11:39.concentration. Here's what you've been harvesting! That is interactive
:11:40. > :11:45.harvesting! I've literally just harvested that and you're now seeing
:11:46. > :11:48.it on Blue Peter! Mum, I just harvested some peas. Now we are
:11:49. > :12:00.going to take this lot over to the factory. One hour gone and the peas'
:12:01. > :12:05.journey has only just begun. They have to be prepared in the biggest
:12:06. > :12:09.factory I've ever seen. Stewart can show me what happens here, after he
:12:10. > :12:14.ticks me in a wicked hairnet! This is where we try and get rid of any
:12:15. > :12:18.of the material that's come off the field and cleaned up before it goes
:12:19. > :12:24.into the branching and freezing operations. I take it that's inside?
:12:25. > :12:31.Can we go there now? You certainly can. Once cleaned the peas boiled so
:12:32. > :12:35.they are fresh for freezing. This happens as quickly as possible in a
:12:36. > :12:42.noisy part of the factory. What is going on here? The peas are being
:12:43. > :12:52.cleaned, blanched which seals in the vitamins and flavours. To freeze
:12:53. > :13:00.this many peas you need a serious freezer. I genuinely feel like I'm
:13:01. > :13:06.in the North Pole! This machine gives them the sort of treatment
:13:07. > :13:29.they would be proud of in the film Frozen!
:13:30. > :13:48.The work at this farm is really un-pea-lievable. This is a world
:13:49. > :13:53.record show, so I am not finished there. There is a pea world record
:13:54. > :14:00.set with the number of peas eating with chopsticks in one hour. That
:14:01. > :14:05.number is 7000. Off we go. I have had no practice for this,
:14:06. > :14:12.whatsoever. Although, that has never stopped me before. But it soon
:14:13. > :14:17.becomes clear, I am well off the record pace. So I am not a record
:14:18. > :14:30.holder, but I am not bothered, I have had such a good day. From the
:14:31. > :14:33.farm, to your plate at home, peasey. That wasn't an official world
:14:34. > :14:41.record, but there will be another one in the studio in precisely seven
:14:42. > :14:47.minutes. Let's take a look at the badge wall. We put it up to show how
:14:48. > :14:57.great you are. It is all about the BP sport badge. The applications
:14:58. > :15:01.closed at noon today. Over 5000 applied for the sport badge and
:15:02. > :15:07.inspired other people to try a brand-new sport in just four weeks.
:15:08. > :15:13.Amazing, good effort. Sarah and Katie did it. Sarah inspired Katie
:15:14. > :15:19.to take up wheelchair basketball. They said not only is it fun, it is
:15:20. > :15:27.good for your arm muscles. Congratulations to all of your
:15:28. > :15:32.people who have got one. They other two biggest smiles in the country.
:15:33. > :15:38.Oscar and Leonardo. Leonardo inspired Oscar to try judo. They
:15:39. > :15:45.look so happy because they have their sport bag. Boys, well done.
:15:46. > :15:54.Now it is time to announce the fan of the month for September. All
:15:55. > :16:06.right, Cockers. I will announce your fan of the month. Stick your hand
:16:07. > :16:12.into my lovely flan. It is not flan of the month, it is fan of the
:16:13. > :16:20.month. The fan of the month is in the flan of the month. Orange
:16:21. > :16:24.Summery seal. You have won a house in Spain. Not only are you an
:16:25. > :16:31.incredible fine, but you have compiled lots of good luck messages
:16:32. > :16:36.for Barney inside a card. Where is he going? He's going to go and find
:16:37. > :16:45.it, I think. There it is. Open it up. You have still got a week to get
:16:46. > :16:54.your messages in. Get your messages in for Barney. You have only got a
:16:55. > :17:03.week. The usual address. Who wants to see my final film on BP? I have
:17:04. > :17:12.been in a ballet, I have driven a car before, but I have never been in
:17:13. > :17:16.a car ballet. Have a look at this. Choreographed stunt driving, using
:17:17. > :17:20.incredible skill to perform synchronised routine and basically,
:17:21. > :17:26.make cars dance. It is a beautiful thing and what it needs is someone
:17:27. > :17:30.with courage, real charisma. So I am some with really cool hair. You can
:17:31. > :17:37.see me, I am not talking about myself, I am talking about a motor
:17:38. > :17:42.sporting legend. I am not the world's bus driver, but hopefully,
:17:43. > :17:46.tomorrow, I will be. For my final Blue Peter challenge I will be
:17:47. > :17:50.joining a display team to try to perform a stunned routine. It'll
:17:51. > :17:57.take precision, bravery and a cool head. It is happening tomorrow. In
:17:58. > :18:01.just 24 hours, I will be taking part in a choreographed car display. To
:18:02. > :18:05.do that, I need to learn the basics so I need an instructor and they
:18:06. > :18:20.need a car. Have you seen one anywhere? He will do. This is stunt
:18:21. > :18:25.driver coordinator, Paul Swift. He will give me a crash course. That is
:18:26. > :18:31.probably not the best phrase. Good to meet you. I am excited about you.
:18:32. > :18:37.I have got you, the car and all I need now is the keys. Not so fast,
:18:38. > :18:41.we need to spend some time give you some training, demonstrate a couple
:18:42. > :18:46.of manoeuvres, you can sit beside me, then we can swap over and see
:18:47. > :18:50.how we get on. That is probably best, can we go on two wheels as
:18:51. > :19:02.well? Show us what you've got. Let's go!
:19:03. > :19:20.That is ridiculous. This is so impressive. My hat flew off. That
:19:21. > :19:26.was really good. My go? This is where the laws of gravity are
:19:27. > :19:32.defied, the rules are broken. And I am genuinely, quite scared. OK, seat
:19:33. > :19:43.belts on. Safety first. The two basic things is driving backwards at
:19:44. > :19:49.speed and doing the J Turn. The J Turn is turning the car around in a
:19:50. > :19:54.matter of seconds. If I cannot do this, I can forget about doing the
:19:55. > :20:00.routine. Clutch, speed, straight in the wheel. In the first. That would
:20:01. > :20:08.have been great, first time round if I didn't stall it. On, off, clutch
:20:09. > :20:15.in, drive. More speed, of the clutch. Straight the wheel. You have
:20:16. > :20:19.got to get this right, because tomorrow, there is no second
:20:20. > :20:28.chances. I am glad you have said that. I keep changing into third
:20:29. > :20:32.gear, I have no idea why, I have been driving for 20 years, I know
:20:33. > :20:42.were first gear is, but for some reason I cannot find it today. First
:20:43. > :20:50.gear! Yes! Amazing. Well done, Barney. Yes! We have just tried the
:20:51. > :20:55.J Turn, one of the more simple moves, which will hopefully be a big
:20:56. > :21:00.part for me. Next is the most difficult one, drifting. Wish me
:21:01. > :21:03.luck. Drifting involves keeping the car under total control well
:21:04. > :21:10.deliberately skidding around a corner. It is tough, but Paul wants
:21:11. > :21:15.me to give 360 degrees around a traffic cone to demonstrate I can
:21:16. > :21:20.make the car do what I want. Build up your speed nice and slowly and
:21:21. > :21:25.you will feel the backend of the car step out. You will control the
:21:26. > :21:32.drifting with steering. Build up your speed. Back-end steps out,
:21:33. > :21:38.power. That is ridiculous. What am I doing wrong? You have to make sure
:21:39. > :21:47.the front is going faster than the back. Power, Power. Keep the power
:21:48. > :21:53.on. Go the other way now, now we are dancing. While performing a routine
:21:54. > :21:58.at high speed, one wrong move can have serious consequences. I need to
:21:59. > :22:09.show Paul I can do this. You have got it! Brilliance! That felt good.
:22:10. > :22:16.It is getting there. Not far away, I was very impressed with the J Turn,
:22:17. > :22:20.just need a bit more time to nail the drifting. Tomorrow we will be
:22:21. > :22:23.ramping its other bit more because he will have myself and other
:22:24. > :22:30.drivers around him and he needs to stand on his own two feed. It is
:22:31. > :22:33.really hard, really, really hard. I am one of those people who like to
:22:34. > :22:39.do things over and over again until I get them right. But I don't have
:22:40. > :22:43.enough time to do it over again before the performance. Next, I take
:22:44. > :22:49.on my final Blue Peter challenge. I have got to get it absolutely right.
:22:50. > :22:52.Can I put everything I have learned into practice? Can I keep my head
:22:53. > :23:02.when the pressure is on, in what is one of my toughest ever tests? Can I
:23:03. > :23:10.save my best... Until last? Exciting. One of my favourite films
:23:11. > :23:15.in six years. Find out what happens in part two next week. It is time to
:23:16. > :23:24.break another record, bring in the team...
:23:25. > :23:32.Look at the state of them. We will be doing some limbering. What we
:23:33. > :23:37.need to know? Will a map of the most limbo is in three minutes by a team
:23:38. > :23:45.of 25. The correct limbo is knees under the bar first and head, alas.
:23:46. > :23:54.The minimum is 60 limbos in three minutes. Me-macro let's do it. This
:23:55. > :24:02.is an official Guinness world record attempt. Three, two, one... Go! We
:24:03. > :24:30.have some CBBC phases. We have Lindsey Russell from Blue Peter.
:24:31. > :24:48.Typical Barney Harwood, that. Keep going, I bet faster. Let's get the
:24:49. > :25:03.record. U cannot touch the floor. Radzi, go and speak to some kids.
:25:04. > :25:14.This is carnage here. Do you train for this? I love competition.
:25:15. > :25:39.Feeling confident. Snake hips. I am getting a bit old, but my back
:25:40. > :25:47.still burns. Do you think we will get it? Yes. Hacker, can you say
:25:48. > :26:03.some words? Jack is properly intense. He is properly making sure.
:26:04. > :26:14.Jack! Jack! You cannot touch the floor, you cannot touch the bar. No
:26:15. > :26:26.sideways bending. Vicki, you do not miss a trick. This is good telly,
:26:27. > :26:36.this. It looks good. It looks good! 30 seconds left. Are you enjoying
:26:37. > :26:44.this? Yes. Do you think we will break the world record? Yes! This is
:26:45. > :26:48.now our third world record. Can we make this the third one? Looking
:26:49. > :27:09.good. I think that was good. Did we get
:27:10. > :27:17.it? Let's see where Shirley was hiding? On Lindsey's hat. The person
:27:18. > :27:23.who has won has won themselves a house in Spain. It is DJ Snowflake
:27:24. > :27:27.Deaver and their sister. We should find out the results. Next week's
:27:28. > :27:37.show will be all about Barney Harwood. Vicky, what are the
:27:38. > :27:40.results? 17 disqualified, that means your grand total today was 121 and
:27:41. > :27:56.it is a new record. The winner of our amazing code
:27:57. > :27:57.breaker competition next week, make sure you are watching. We will see
:27:58. > :28:02.you next week. Goodbye.
