-Looking good, Professor. -You're sure to win Beard of the Year with that. | 0:00:03 | 0:00:06 | |
Huh! Fat chance of that. | 0:00:06 | 0:00:08 | |
HE SINGS TO HIMSELF | 0:00:08 | 0:00:10 | |
Wow! Now, that's a beard! | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:00:13 | 0:00:14 | |
Better luck next year, McCork. As if! | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
Well, someone seems a little overconfident. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
BELL RINGS | 0:00:20 | 0:00:21 | |
Come on, let's do this. I've got a trophy to win! | 0:00:21 | 0:00:24 | |
This is Brain Freeze. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
With Dr Knowles, | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
Professor McCork, | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
Colin, the floor manager | 0:00:32 | 0:00:35 | |
And Ms Hucklebuck. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:37 | |
Stand by! | 0:00:37 | 0:00:39 | |
-TOGETHER: -It's time for... | 0:00:44 | 0:00:45 | |
Today, we're asking - why can't girls grow beards? | 0:00:49 | 0:00:52 | |
As children get older, their bodies begin to change | 0:00:52 | 0:00:55 | |
during a time we call puberty. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:57 | |
Around the age of 10 to 16, hormones called androgens | 0:00:57 | 0:01:01 | |
cause body hair to become thicker and darker in both boys and girls. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
This happens more widely on the male body, | 0:01:05 | 0:01:08 | |
especially on the chest, | 0:01:08 | 0:01:09 | |
the upper lip, the face... | 0:01:09 | 0:01:11 | |
The ears, nostrils, along your back and shoulders, between your toes... | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
Well, some people are hairier than others, Professor. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
The truth is, it's different for everyone. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:20 | |
And isn't it great to be a bit different? | 0:01:20 | 0:01:22 | |
See you after the break! | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
HE SINGS TO HIMSELF | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Back of the net! Ooh-hoo-hoo! | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
Oh, what a lovely trophy. So shiny. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:35 | |
What's it for, Jonathan? | 0:01:35 | 0:01:37 | |
Oh, it's nothing major. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
It's just this little competition that my family has won | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
FOR THE LAST 50 YEARS! Ha-ha! | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
Beard of the Year - he wins it every time. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:48 | |
Mm... Is that so? | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
Hmm... | 0:01:51 | 0:01:52 | |
Steady hand, nice and relaxed. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:55 | |
-BELL RINGS -WAH! | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
Aagh-aagh! Oh, crumpets! No! | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
My beautiful beard! | 0:02:00 | 0:02:01 | |
Positions, everybody! | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
So tell us, Dr Knowles, why can't girls grow beards? | 0:02:08 | 0:02:12 | |
In much the same way as lions and peacocks use hair | 0:02:12 | 0:02:15 | |
and feathers to attract females, | 0:02:15 | 0:02:17 | |
some believe men evolved to do the same with facial hair. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Men produce ten times more testosterone than women. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
This is the hormone that promotes hair growth. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:26 | |
So, that's why men are hairier? | 0:02:26 | 0:02:28 | |
Exactly. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:29 | |
In fact, if a man never, ever shaves his facial hair, | 0:02:29 | 0:02:33 | |
it could grow up to nine metres long during his lifetime. | 0:02:33 | 0:02:37 | |
Whoa! Imagine, that would be the beard of the century. | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
Higher levels of testosterone also result in men's greater | 0:02:40 | 0:02:44 | |
upper body strength and deepened voices, | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
but also a tendency towards more aggressive behaviour. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:50 | |
Aah! | 0:02:50 | 0:02:52 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
-Us men can be right silly sometimes. -Yep. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
We can all be a bit silly now and then. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:59 | |
See you next time! | 0:02:59 | 0:03:01 | |
And we're clear! | 0:03:01 | 0:03:03 | |
Na-na-nana-nah! | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
I'm the only entrant, therefore I'm the winner! | 0:03:05 | 0:03:08 | |
Gracious as ever, McCork(!) | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
Woohoo! Late entrant for the competition. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:14 | |
Where do I sign up? | 0:03:14 | 0:03:16 | |
But that's a fake beard from the joke shop. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
We spent months growing these beards. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:21 | |
Yes, and so what? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
Well, it says here, Professor, | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
the overall winner shall be the person sporting the biggest beard. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
Sorry, it doesn't say that you have to grow it yourself. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
BOTH: Oh, crumpets! | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
Congratulations, Ms Hucklebuck! | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
Oh, wonderful. Beard of the Year! | 0:03:37 | 0:03:40 | |
-Oh, well. Better luck next year, boys. -Oh. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:45 |
