This week we are in Scotland. It is calm, peaceful and serene.

:00:16.:00:21.

This is Live 'n' Deadly and we are about adventures and scintillating

:00:21.:00:28.

predators. What are we trying to catch today? Sharks? We are not

:00:28.:00:34.

trying to catch anything, certainly not sharks in a Scottish loch.

:00:34.:00:41.

Loch Ness monster maybe? Look at this! That is the way to start a

:00:41.:00:50.

show! This is Live 'n' Deadly. We are touring the UK searching for

:00:50.:01:00.
:01:00.:01:00.

all things wild and you are coming with us every step of the wave. --

:01:00.:01:05.

way. Star Art on the sofa on a Saturday

:01:05.:01:15.
:01:15.:01:25.

You are here with the show that inspires you to get into wildlife.

:01:26.:01:30.

We have already been too hot for chair having fun on the Olympic

:01:30.:01:37.

white water caused. I got picked out of the sea in Lyme Regis.

:01:37.:01:42.

we are in Scotland, William Morris territory at the Blair Drummond

:01:42.:01:49.

Safari Park. We tried to shake them off, but they keep on following us,

:01:49.:01:58.

the Live 'n' Deadly Gros! And this is the audience!

:01:58.:02:01.

In keeping with an active and Scottish theme we have a special

:02:01.:02:08.

guest - Andy Murray. No, not the tennis player. It is the man who

:02:08.:02:12.

completed one of the finest ultra runners of all time, this Andy

:02:12.:02:19.

Murray. All of that and some great form

:02:19.:02:26.

that will look something like this. Steve is on a school by a mission

:02:26.:02:31.

to find some deadly predators that live in British waters.

:02:31.:02:38.

I set some adventurers big challenge, too abseiling in Cumbria.

:02:39.:02:42.

We have our very own safari adventure with the king of the

:02:42.:02:45.

jungle.. And I will be getting wetter with

:02:45.:02:52.

the ballerinas of the deep. California sea lions.

:02:52.:02:56.

Are we sure about having the lion's live? Yes, they will be eating

:02:56.:03:02.

their breakfast us from your toes. They come later, but I thought we

:03:02.:03:08.

would start off with falcons. It is perhaps the animal featured more on

:03:09.:03:13.

this programme than any other, but I thought I would bring in this

:03:13.:03:20.

beautiful bird. It is kind of like this super charge cousin of the

:03:20.:03:24.

peregrine falcon. They come from Eastern Europe, Asia and parts of

:03:24.:03:30.

Africa and we are hoping to see their hunting method. It will get

:03:30.:03:35.

alert and active and hopefully we should see it flying. I will head

:03:35.:03:45.
:03:45.:04:05.

Ross, let's see him in action. He is going to make a pass at me.

:04:05.:04:12.

They don't stoop at their prey like peregrine falcon us. Instead, they

:04:12.:04:17.

will try and snatch birds as they try and take off. And also, rodents

:04:17.:04:27.
:04:27.:04:28.

as well. They will quite happily catch voles, I miss that and one. I

:04:28.:04:35.

think it is time to let him get stuck in. Come on, yes! What a

:04:35.:04:41.

wonderful bird. Unfortunately, he is freed out by the camera and is

:04:41.:04:51.
:04:51.:04:53.

doing another pass. Yes, he courted and is off again but hopefully

:04:53.:04:58.

we'll come back down and get stuck into the food. I think you will

:04:58.:05:02.

agree they are impressive and they come in a massive variety of forms,

:05:02.:05:07.

check this out. Falcons are the speed merchants of

:05:07.:05:15.

the bird world and have flat-out pace. And nothing matches the

:05:15.:05:19.

rapidity of the paragon Falcon. It has made use of the urban

:05:19.:05:23.

environments and the pigeons that are so plentiful. That one has had

:05:23.:05:30.

a very bad day. In Africa its larger cousin does not fly at such

:05:31.:05:35.

pace that is adept at taking out birds on the wing or on the ground.

:05:35.:05:41.

Look at this glorious spirit bird of the Arctic north. It heads into

:05:41.:05:47.

the sun so its prey cannot see it and then falls its wings and drops

:05:47.:05:57.
:05:57.:05:58.

towards the earth in a stupor at We are blessed with many wonderful

:05:58.:06:06.

species but this is my favourite. Look at that. It is a kestrel.

:06:06.:06:14.

Settle down and get stuck into your breakfast. Isn't it beautiful? They

:06:14.:06:19.

are surprisingly small, but very efficient in catching their prey. I

:06:19.:06:24.

will give it a little bit of space. One of the wonders of the kestrel

:06:24.:06:32.

is the sophisticated method they have of catching their prey. It has

:06:32.:06:38.

an incredibly Eric -- elegant and refined method of catching its prey.

:06:38.:06:44.

I could talk about it all day long, but we will show it you.

:06:44.:06:48.

If you have been driving down a motorway and looked out of your

:06:48.:06:56.

window and saw a kestrel like this. There are birds in the UK that can

:06:56.:07:01.

hover but none do it with this style. Look at it, just hanging

:07:01.:07:06.

using the wind to its advantage until its spot something. Then it

:07:06.:07:12.

will drop from about 15 metres and that is a roadside rodents that is

:07:12.:07:16.

mincemeat. One of the wonders of the kestrel is a body keeps moving

:07:16.:07:21.

around in the wind, but its head will stay in the same position to

:07:21.:07:26.

keep focused on its prey. If I move the body from side to side, is that

:07:26.:07:34.

working? Just about. Its eyes stay focused and it could beat a vault

:07:34.:07:39.

on the ground which it can spot from the tiny trails left behind

:07:39.:07:44.

from its urine. It can zone in on an animal that has been gone for

:07:44.:07:50.

many minutes simply never trails it leaves behind. Naomi is as one over

:07:50.:08:00.
:08:00.:08:04.

by this animal as I am. Absolutely. The Falcon and the kestrel are

:08:04.:08:09.

there. But have they got what it takes to beat the competition? Only

:08:09.:08:13.

one deadly animals from today's show will go over there and get

:08:13.:08:20.

into the Grand Final at the end of the series. Later, we have the

:08:20.:08:24.

competition to beat Steve. See if you can catch him out, we did it

:08:24.:08:29.

last week. Can we do it again? If you have a good question, send it

:08:29.:08:39.
:08:39.:08:41.

Also last week we asked you to send us your seaside snaps and you have

:08:41.:08:50.

been busy. We have this from Amber. But it is a bit of Sam sculpting.

:08:50.:08:57.

Complete with a human arm in its jaws. We have this from Tom May who

:08:57.:09:01.

found this on Monmouth Beach, just along from a where we were last

:09:01.:09:09.

week. Lizzie, you have been catching the waves. Keep your

:09:09.:09:14.

photos coming in. Because of our animal safari backdrop it is your

:09:14.:09:19.

encounters with big animals we are after. If you have a photograph of

:09:19.:09:24.

you holding a bird of prey, maybe you have met a hippopotamus, maybe

:09:24.:09:28.

you have a big dog? Send us your name and phone number with your

:09:29.:09:34.

picture. If you are watching the programme from the comfort of your

:09:34.:09:41.

sofa, please be upstanding all of you. Start jogging on the spot. The

:09:41.:09:44.

crew and the audience are joining in because our next guest loves

:09:44.:09:49.

nothing more than a good run. Let's see him in action.

:09:49.:09:52.

He set himself the immense challenge of running from John

:09:52.:10:00.

O'Groats to the Sahara desert, 2659 miles. He covered 34 miles a day

:10:00.:10:05.

for 78 consecutive days. No one has ever run that many miles in that

:10:05.:10:11.

many consecutive days ever before. It is without doubt one of the

:10:11.:10:16.

finest endurance conquests in history. We are lucky to have him

:10:16.:10:22.

here, this is Andrew Murray. comes running in. Thanks for coming

:10:22.:10:26.

on the programme. What an incredible journey, how does a

:10:26.:10:33.

doctor become an ultra marathon runner? It was almost by accident.

:10:33.:10:40.

I was working at the Mount Everest Marathon. So ever since I have been

:10:40.:10:44.

competing and doing OK in some of the hardest and most beautiful

:10:44.:10:48.

marathons in the world. So you haven't been running all of your

:10:48.:10:56.

life? No, only for the last six years. The do have a runner's fizzy,

:10:56.:11:02.

you are built like a whippet? am skinny, but it does not keep me

:11:03.:11:07.

warm in Scotland. When I read what you had done, I had to read it

:11:07.:11:16.

again. It blew my mind. Talk us through your challenge. It was to

:11:16.:11:21.

run 3660 miles in Scotland. All the way through Scott Dunn, down

:11:21.:11:23.

through England, through France and the mountains of Spain and

:11:23.:11:28.

eventually arrive in the Sahara that has -- desert in Morocco. It

:11:29.:11:38.

was a distance of 2260 miles. About 34 miles a day. He brought with you

:11:38.:11:44.

some essential kit? If you ever do fancy running to the Zahara desert,

:11:44.:11:51.

I can recommend you bring these items. High-visibility clothes. A

:11:51.:11:56.

compass to point you in the right directions. Also a watch to make

:11:56.:12:00.

sure you know how many miles you had done each day. That is a GPS

:12:00.:12:08.

watch? It is. Also attacked for the Sahara desert to be the son of your

:12:08.:12:12.

head. Some spikes to give you some traction when there is snow and ice

:12:12.:12:19.

on the road. And also some food. is unbelievable. I guess it is a

:12:19.:12:23.

lovely place to appreciate the environment around June? Also the

:12:24.:12:29.

wild animals? Certainly. Moving at the speed you can run you see so

:12:29.:12:35.

much more than if you are travelling in a car. It does give

:12:35.:12:41.

you time to appreciate the wildlife around and how they adapt to their

:12:41.:12:45.

environments. Arriving in the Sahara desert, the camel with its

:12:45.:12:50.

big feet, moving gracefully over the sand while I was trying to

:12:50.:12:58.

carry my rucksack and moving at a slow speed. Will you walk with me?

:12:58.:13:05.

You have run in some brutal climate and some hot star conditions. We

:13:05.:13:09.

have some animals to bring back memories of your journeys. We have

:13:09.:13:15.

a couple of camels. Would you both get onto a Camel Beach while I

:13:15.:13:23.

explain the rules. We will have a camel race. They will hold on to

:13:23.:13:27.

the dear life while the camel and runs up there, tries to turn around

:13:27.:13:32.

and comes back. The first over this finish line or will be the winner.

:13:32.:13:37.

Have you ever ridden a camel? have ridden one, but never had a

:13:37.:13:42.

race on one. If getting on them is anything to go by it is going to be

:13:42.:13:52.
:13:52.:13:57.

amusing. Are you ready? Facing the Shall we start while Steve is

:13:57.:14:07.
:14:07.:14:14.

pointing in the wrong direction? Talk about going up the inside

:14:14.:14:24.
:14:24.:14:25.

straight! Nice to see Steve sporting his camouflage trousers! A

:14:25.:14:30.

tricky manoeuvre at the end, they are going at a pace! If you have

:14:30.:14:39.

ever tried a horseracing, this is nothing like it! And Andrew just

:14:39.:14:46.

beats him. Only just. By a camel knows! They are out of breath! Are

:14:46.:14:54.

you tired? Look at Steve's Camel, he is sad! Look at his long face!

:14:54.:15:02.

How was that? Three challengers, three losses, I am not doing well!

:15:02.:15:09.

He beat me. It is amazingly tiring. Is it hard staying gone? Did you

:15:09.:15:15.

enjoy yourself? Enjoyment is not the right word, a terrified!

:15:15.:15:19.

Fingers crossed you win next week but if you put at Steve Backshall

:15:19.:15:23.

in the water to find deadly animals, they will always come out in

:15:24.:15:30.

winner! Behind me is Falmouth in the south-western tip of the UK in

:15:30.:15:35.

Cornwall. It is gloomy at the moment but I hope beneath the waves

:15:35.:15:41.

will be a call for world entirely different! -- a colourful world.

:15:41.:15:47.

The waters around Britain are some of the richest in the world.

:15:47.:15:52.

Teeming with extraordinary numbers of fish, marine mammals and other

:15:52.:16:01.

creatures of the deep. And no matter where you are in the UK, you

:16:01.:16:08.

are never more than 70 miles from the sea and the underwater world.

:16:08.:16:11.

Scuba-diving as one of the best ways to enter that world and even

:16:11.:16:16.

boat you can never be certain what you will find, there will be

:16:17.:16:23.

wildlife dramas waiting to be discovered -- and even though you

:16:23.:16:33.
:16:33.:16:38.

The first thing we come across is the wreck of an old ship. It is

:16:38.:16:47.

remarkable! You can see how all the nooks and crannies just provide

:16:47.:16:57.
:16:57.:16:58.

loads of places for animals to hide in. That is a crab sat here. You

:16:58.:17:05.

have to be care. Mack -- careful, because they have got fairly big

:17:05.:17:13.

pincers. These are rather wonderful creatures. They scavenge at Moseley

:17:14.:17:23.
:17:24.:17:24.

for dead fish -- they scavenge it mostly. They also use cause for

:17:24.:17:34.
:17:34.:17:35.

fighting -- their cause. They can give a nasty nip. Wonderful! You

:17:35.:17:41.

can see that at the bottom, it is just covered with loads and loads

:17:41.:17:46.

of sea plants. We need to forage among us them and see what we can

:17:46.:17:55.

find. -- among them. This is interesting. This shell is a

:17:55.:18:02.

scallop and it actually has a small animal inside. Right now, it is

:18:02.:18:09.

closed tight to prove her -- to protect itself. But they can swim

:18:09.:18:14.

away by clasping the two heart of the shell together Taik-Lee, and

:18:14.:18:21.

that can allow it to open up! -- the two halves of the shell

:18:21.:18:28.

together at Taik-Lee. Look at that! I loved them! They are such great

:18:28.:18:33.

animals! And that wonderful movement allows them to swim away

:18:33.:18:43.
:18:43.:18:44.

from predators. What else can we find? Well spotted! Look at that!

:18:44.:18:53.

Down in front of me now. This is probably my favourite animal in all

:18:53.:18:57.

of Britain's coastal waters, you are never going to see it until I

:18:57.:19:06.

pointed out to use. Just here -- until I point it out to you. It is

:19:06.:19:10.

the best camouflage animal in the world, it is a cuttlefish. They

:19:10.:19:15.

have an extraordinary ability to change colour to fit their

:19:15.:19:20.

surroundings, so there are incredible ambush hunters. They

:19:20.:19:23.

used to camouflage to sneak up on their prey, shooting out tentacles

:19:23.:19:29.

to catch it. The Great is pulled towards a sharp beak and devoured.

:19:29.:19:35.

-- the pre. They are very nimble and can use in any direction. When

:19:35.:19:42.

they need to step on it, they can even use jet propulsion.

:19:42.:19:48.

Off like a shot! Jet propulsion is a way are getting

:19:48.:19:52.

around underwater, but there are other slower ways of doing it.

:19:52.:20:00.

Look at this! People often think of starfish as just lying on the

:20:00.:20:07.

bottom and doing nothing. But this is actively chasing and going after

:20:07.:20:15.

this snail's. Look at it go! I have never seen a starfish move so fast!

:20:15.:20:23.

Look at this! It is pulling itself along the bottom using its arms! It

:20:23.:20:30.

looks like a little alien! I could sit here and watch this all day

:20:30.:20:35.

long. We were starting to run out of air

:20:35.:20:39.

but just as we were about to head to the surface, there was one final

:20:39.:20:44.

encounter. That is just wonderful!

:20:44.:20:51.

It is a thorn back way, one of the most common in British waters.

:20:51.:20:56.

Even so, this is a special encounter, even though it did not

:20:56.:21:01.

hang around. Every way you look in British

:21:01.:21:06.

waters, Beryl little dramas and incredible animal and counters like

:21:06.:21:12.

first -- there are little dramas. Every dive is unique. Today, we

:21:12.:21:19.

have seen crabs, cuttlefish, speeding starfish. Not bad for a

:21:19.:21:24.

day's work! That was really great! It seems

:21:24.:21:28.

like at times every time you put your hands down to the floor, there

:21:28.:21:35.

were things going off in every direction. A lot were peculiar

:21:35.:21:39.

curiosity is that I have never seen before. And you would not need to

:21:39.:21:43.

scuba dive to see some of those things, it was not at deep. You

:21:43.:21:49.

could go with a snorkel and experience it yourself. It goes to

:21:49.:21:53.

show the sea in Britain is brilliant! Have you got a hot cup

:21:53.:21:57.

of tea! We are sticking with the marine

:21:57.:22:03.

theme here at Blair Drummond Safari Park with wonderful marine mammals.

:22:03.:22:09.

Let them out! Hopefully any second now, there will be two rather

:22:09.:22:17.

wonderful creatures. Yes! They are Californian sea-lions. And they are

:22:18.:22:25.

just beautiful! A look at them! So inquisitive. They are darting

:22:25.:22:31.

around having a look about. I am just going to sit down so they can

:22:31.:22:38.

be used to me here. And look at them at the surface. They are so

:22:38.:22:43.

glossy. They have big eyes looking around them. They Raeside is

:22:43.:22:48.

wonderful even underwater. -- that eyesight. They are looking at the

:22:48.:22:56.

cameraman! They are actually sea lions and they are more adept on

:22:56.:23:01.

land and true seals because they have an enlarged flippers which are

:23:01.:23:08.

like hands and arms. They are much better on land. And behind the

:23:08.:23:17.

sound man! Just having a look! That looked like a cough. They are

:23:17.:23:27.
:23:27.:23:31.

wonderful. Are you going to say hello? Hello! Hello, sweet hard.

:23:31.:23:37.

Look at those beautiful brown eyes and long whiskers. Perfect for

:23:37.:23:41.

sense and the environment around them. They look like big play for

:23:41.:23:46.

puppies and take an interest in the Sound man who is looking a nervous,

:23:46.:23:52.

but they are also supreme hunters. And if you do not believe me, check

:23:52.:23:56.

this out. In a ban paid -- in the rampaging

:23:56.:24:03.

ways of the eastern Pacific is the Californian sea-lions. Marine

:24:03.:24:07.

mammals with the ability to turn on the turbos. They are predators as

:24:07.:24:13.

you can see from the teeth, feeding on fish, squid, shellfish and other

:24:13.:24:18.

marine mammals occasionally. They move around differently from other

:24:18.:24:23.

seals, using their flippers as paddles to drive away at great

:24:23.:24:30.

speeds. They are true masters, not to mention dancers of the deep!

:24:30.:24:35.

That looks like so much fun! They are more comfortable now so I am

:24:35.:24:39.

going to slip end and feel what it is like to be in the world of the

:24:39.:24:45.

sea lion -- to slip in a. Hello! They are more interested in the

:24:45.:24:50.

fish than me. As they start swimming around, look how much they

:24:50.:24:57.

can thrash the water. They are so elegant and so powerful. It is down

:24:57.:25:02.

to the way they drive themselves with their four flippers. They can

:25:02.:25:07.

swim with ease, even leaping out of the water up to avoid the drag

:25:07.:25:14.

created up by the water itself. They are so and dealing! They are

:25:14.:25:21.

so comical! -- and the rink. But if you are a fish or marine mammal, it

:25:21.:25:27.

is a different story. This twist and turn in motion are in play is

:25:27.:25:32.

certainly very effective when these animals hunt. They are under my

:25:32.:25:38.

feet and around me. There is no animal more fun to be in the water

:25:38.:25:43.

with. There are six different species of seals. They are

:25:43.:25:49.

different too true seals. The external ear openings, you can seek.

:25:49.:25:54.

Seals do not have those. And the way they swim is definitely. And

:25:54.:26:04.
:26:04.:26:05.

they are just behind you! -- is different. And I think it is time

:26:05.:26:15.
:26:15.:26:16.

for a bit of cute now! We have a bigger baby than normal

:26:17.:26:22.

this week. Still absolutely adorable. This is also, at a baby

:26:23.:26:30.

rhinoceros. She is 18 months. will she be fully grown? At around

:26:30.:26:36.

for macro weeks old. And I was there when she was Byrne, a midday

:26:36.:26:41.

birth, which is unusual, they are usually born at around 3am. Handy

:26:41.:26:48.

on your lunch break! Habit cushy? He around 50 kilograms, about as

:26:48.:26:55.

high as that Bath. Can you imagine? She is still lovely. What was she

:26:55.:27:01.

like when she was born? Very bouncy and independent. We go in after a

:27:01.:27:06.

few weeks to get them used to human contact and she was straightaway

:27:06.:27:15.

very curious. She is so soft. Hello! How much do I love my job?!

:27:15.:27:19.

She has wonderful funnel shaped ears, how she got great hearing?

:27:19.:27:25.

That is their main sense, but also have a good sense of smell. Areas

:27:25.:27:31.

rotate like satellite around the top of their head. -- very ears.

:27:31.:27:35.

Especially when they are sleeping. Even when they are fast asleep, and

:27:35.:27:42.

their ears keep moving? How much does she way? Around half a ton at

:27:42.:27:47.

the moment. So she is already like a small cough. And she likes to eat

:27:47.:27:53.

grass? She will eat probably about three-quarters of a bale of hay in

:27:53.:27:58.

the morning and an evening, she split it with her mother. If Steve

:27:58.:28:05.

was here now, he would tell us how deadly they of. And she is big and

:28:05.:28:09.

of his sleep a power house, capable of taking care of herself. They are

:28:09.:28:16.

very heavy with a sort -- with a horn and I have to fight other

:28:16.:28:21.

animals. Especially with males and females, females will defend their

:28:21.:28:24.

territory and they will protect their babies. Its so when they

:28:24.:28:29.

charge like that, you do not want to be in the way! They can run up

:28:29.:28:34.

to 30 miles an hour, so it is a dread -- a deadly combination.

:28:34.:28:39.

can be very deadly, but this little vegetarian is just cute all the

:28:39.:28:44.

way! So we have big animals still to come on the programme today, but

:28:44.:28:50.

you do not have to go on safari to with this deadly dramas. Sometimes

:28:50.:29:00.

the biggest adventures are in your At the bottom of your garden is a

:29:00.:29:06.

jungle. These are the best places for wildlife. Loads of creatures

:29:06.:29:12.

live here, not quite lions and tigers but deadly nonetheless. In

:29:12.:29:20.

the bottom of the undergrowth, the laws of the jungle still applies.

:29:20.:29:27.

These caterpillar hairs don't just look pretty, they are poisonous.

:29:27.:29:31.

And this Shiels itself from ferocious predators. Or top of the

:29:31.:29:36.

food chain is this guy, a ground beetle and what a power of a rhino

:29:36.:29:39.

and appetite of a lion, it is always on the attack and will

:29:39.:29:46.

demolish anything it comes across. When I say anything, it includes

:29:46.:29:50.

other ground beetles. Another important place for wildlife is a

:29:50.:29:56.

fortress fall of rotting leftovers - the compost heap. It is a

:29:56.:30:01.

treasure chest, the perfect playground for the slowworm. In

:30:01.:30:07.

this world of rotting vegetables, grass cuttings and other stuff, it

:30:07.:30:17.
:30:17.:30:18.

is a slithering superhero. He eats slugs and other slimy snails. Next

:30:18.:30:23.

time you empty your potato peelings, keep an eye out for the King of the

:30:23.:30:31.

compost. They are very cool because I got to

:30:31.:30:38.

know about them from an expert at last Sunday's deadly day out. I am

:30:38.:30:41.

holding a slowworm for the first time ever, which looks like this

:30:41.:30:46.

make it isn't? It looks superficially like a snake because

:30:46.:30:52.

it does not have any arms or legs like a normal lizard. It has Moving

:30:52.:30:56.

Day eyelids. Were as a snake has a fixed eyelid, and it looks like it

:30:57.:31:01.

is staring at you, the slow worm can wink at you and they have a

:31:02.:31:08.

tale which they can snap off if they get caught by a predator.

:31:08.:31:14.

are good for the garden? They eat the pests that eat vegetable

:31:14.:31:20.

patches and things like that. do we encourage them in? Long areas

:31:20.:31:26.

of grass and it you have somewhere where you can pile up some wood and

:31:26.:31:34.

colour them with leaves. If you pick it up by the tail it could

:31:34.:31:38.

break off the tail. It is best to leave it alone and just watch it.

:31:38.:31:43.

Anybody interested to see what he looks like in action? Give him some

:31:43.:31:53.
:31:53.:32:01.

Not a lot. You can see why he is called a slow one.

:32:01.:32:06.

It you do want to attract them, have a rough, unkempt part of the

:32:06.:32:11.

garden. You might have had a brief glimpse at an extraordinary bird.

:32:11.:32:15.

We will try and show you in more detail because on the other side of

:32:15.:32:21.

the lake, is a white-tailed eagle, Britain's largest bird of prey with

:32:21.:32:29.

its handler, David. Up there we have the benefit of a suber, highly

:32:29.:32:34.

magnified camera, which hopefully should be able to see everything's.

:32:34.:32:43.

So if I shout to Dave, let it go. It has taken off. This eagle is

:32:43.:32:48.

Super a catching all sorts of break, but we want it to snatch food from

:32:48.:32:54.

the surface of the lake. Come on, come around! She is heading in our

:32:54.:32:59.

direction. This is fantastic! This eagle has eyesight probably eight

:32:59.:33:03.

times more efficient than our own. Heavily it should have spot of the

:33:03.:33:08.

food in the water. It looks like it is coming around over the surface

:33:08.:33:18.
:33:18.:33:19.

of the lake. The white-tailed eagle has a distinctive silhouette. It is

:33:19.:33:29.
:33:29.:33:30.

absolutely enormous. Over here! Food! Don't go into the tree,

:33:30.:33:37.

please! Come back and do some hunting. Breakfast! Come on, come

:33:37.:33:45.

on, come on! This is bad news for us. She has settled down in the

:33:45.:33:55.

treaty. When she has settled. Come on! Unfortunate gig, the chances of

:33:55.:34:01.

getting her to move again are very slender. They always say don't work

:34:01.:34:04.

with animals live on television, and they should have learnt my

:34:04.:34:09.

lesson. Let's try one more time. This is a bird with superior

:34:09.:34:14.

eyesight. Hopefully, just the sight of his crashing into the water

:34:14.:34:21.

might attract her attention. I will try again. Are you ready? It is

:34:21.:34:31.
:34:31.:34:34.

going to go up into the air. I will untangle it a little bit. Come on!

:34:34.:34:39.

Come and play for us. Show the people you're wonderful feathers.

:34:39.:34:46.

It is not looking good. It is not looking good. Naomi, have you any

:34:46.:34:52.

ideas for us? It does not look like this is going to work.

:34:52.:34:56.

We love it when a plan comes together but it never happens when

:34:56.:35:03.

it is on this programme. We would hap puts it on to the board, if it

:35:03.:35:09.

wasn't already there. But this one, the rhino, the sea line have to

:35:09.:35:14.

battle it adds. Every week we feature a group who followed the

:35:14.:35:18.

mantra of going out there and having a go and getting adventurous.

:35:18.:35:22.

But you are about to see in his film happened right about here in

:35:22.:35:26.

Cumbria. This mission has brought us to

:35:26.:35:31.

Cumbria. With its green countryside and rugged landscape, it is the

:35:31.:35:37.

perfect place for a big adventure. To complete this week's task, I

:35:37.:35:42.

will lead a team who were not afraid of a challenge. I have

:35:42.:35:52.
:35:52.:35:53.

tracked down the perfect candidate. My name is Thomas and I and 10

:35:53.:36:03.

years old. I am Samarra and I am 15. I am Sophie and I am seven years

:36:03.:36:13.
:36:13.:36:14.

old. I and Toby and I am 14 years old. My name is Davies. I am you go

:36:14.:36:23.

and I am 80 years old. The instructor is on hand to help

:36:23.:36:29.

navigate the cause and brings a message for the team.

:36:29.:36:38.

We have got a mission from Steve. know you like hanging out together

:36:38.:36:42.

and like an adventure in the great outdoors. This week I have lined up

:36:42.:36:47.

the perfect challenge. This is the perfect place for a deadly mission

:36:47.:36:51.

as it will offer a serious challenge but with the perfect

:36:51.:36:55.

amount of team work and support for you to get through it. Your mission

:36:55.:36:59.

starts with indoor training but this afternoon you will have to at

:36:59.:37:04.

Dale -- abseil down a 25 metre Quarry. It is time to get out there

:37:04.:37:10.

and head over the edge. Also Sirte fantastic. Shall we

:37:10.:37:20.
:37:20.:37:23.

Welcome to the indoor climbing wall. We will have a practice and so

:37:23.:37:29.

ready for this afternoon's. I am giving them a chance to get used to

:37:29.:37:34.

the decent indoors. But first they need to put on all of the essential

:37:34.:37:37.

safety gear before testing out their skills on the first part of

:37:37.:37:42.

the challenge. There are mixed feelings. I am looking forward to

:37:42.:37:51.

this. I am a bit nervous. I am scared. It is more the first bit of

:37:51.:38:01.
:38:01.:38:08.

leaning backwards and letting the After a successful practice,

:38:08.:38:13.

thoughts are turning to the challenge ahead. I am excited about

:38:13.:38:18.

going abseiling in his quarry. thought this was scary, but if it

:38:18.:38:23.

is going to be twice as high and more Steed, I think I will fall

:38:23.:38:33.

down straight away. I am excited. They have done brilliantly, I think

:38:33.:38:43.
:38:43.:38:45.

we are ready. Let's go. But getting to the top is a mission in itself.

:38:45.:38:51.

Up through rough terrain means a long way down.

:38:51.:38:54.

This is the top of the quarry, it is different to what we did this

:38:55.:39:01.

morning. It is bigger and as we are outside, it is damp. Who would like

:39:01.:39:09.

to go first? Me! Excellent. This is where they need to test their

:39:09.:39:14.

nerves. Be it is so much higher than what we did indoors. The time

:39:14.:39:24.
:39:24.:40:00.

Up I have never climbdown anything Steve, it is Duns. I liked that

:40:00.:40:07.

challenge, thanks very much a stock it is a good achievement for me to

:40:07.:40:17.
:40:17.:40:17.

do this. I have enjoyed myself. Great challenge, Steve.

:40:18.:40:24.

Just a wonderful, inspiring film. It is a reminder to all of us or we

:40:24.:40:32.

need to get out and grab life. These stripey customers behind may

:40:32.:40:35.

have an eye is linked to the next animal because they are the

:40:35.:40:41.

favourite food of Lyons. They will be having their breakfast. Before

:40:41.:40:46.

they do that let me introduce you to what is special about this

:40:46.:40:51.

incredible thing. It is the skeleton of a lie and S. The

:40:51.:40:58.

remarkable thing is how big and solid the bones of. A fully grown

:40:58.:41:04.

lion can be three times heavier than me, perhaps more in a male.

:41:04.:41:13.

Can you imagine the force going through those legs? If I put the

:41:13.:41:17.

male skull next to it, look at the size difference. It is so heavy,

:41:17.:41:23.

the bone is so solid and each one of its teeth pretty much the size

:41:23.:41:29.

of my thumb. It can deliver a killing bite to be too much part of

:41:29.:41:36.

an animal. It has such great power, it gives it unbelievable abilities

:41:36.:41:39.

at taking down its prey from anything from a mouse to an

:41:39.:41:46.

elephant. They are one of the finest, boars on earth. They are

:41:46.:41:53.

waiting to meet Nairobi. Come over here because in that van, looking

:41:53.:42:00.

nervous through the door, his name only. In that building, having just

:42:00.:42:05.

woken up and feeling hungry are a small pride of lions. In front of

:42:05.:42:09.

Naomi is a bunch of meat and that any second, it is going to get

:42:09.:42:16.

crazy. How are you feeling? I am looking forward to it, I think. I

:42:16.:42:20.

will make some new friends very soon. I had just seen the size of

:42:20.:42:25.

their betters, and it is not a breakfast for the faint-hearted. --

:42:26.:42:35.

breakfast. Six Lions will be released. One male and fight e-

:42:35.:42:41.

mails. Hopefully they will see the meat and not see me as Lydd Ranges.

:42:41.:42:48.

Am I say? I am sure you are. I am certain they will be centred on the

:42:48.:42:52.

food that they will ignore you. You never know, it is a top predator

:42:52.:42:59.

after all. It is time to release the Lyons! The door is being opened.

:42:59.:43:04.

They know it is back this time, so as soon as they sense the Open, I

:43:04.:43:12.

am expecting them to sprint. I think there is one mature adults

:43:12.:43:18.

Mail. You'll see him with his majestic main flowing in the wind.

:43:18.:43:22.

They will know it is food time. In the wild they can go for several

:43:22.:43:27.

days without eating, but they are fed every day. They know this is

:43:27.:43:35.

their trigger and they will be coming out. They are coming. They

:43:35.:43:42.

ladies are actually first. Look at that, bounding towards the band.

:43:42.:43:48.

my word. It is not every day you have these animals running towards

:43:48.:43:58.
:43:58.:44:12.

They are growling and it is loud enough. It is incredible. The roar

:44:12.:44:19.

of the lion is one of the most incredible sounds of the natural

:44:19.:44:24.

world. It reverberates up through your body and its hits you in the

:44:24.:44:34.

chest. How close to you are they? Only about 10 beat. I can see the

:44:34.:44:41.

power. -- 10 feet. It is a controlled situation as opposed to

:44:41.:44:46.

in the wild? It is a different situation. They would have killed

:44:47.:44:53.

their prey co-operatively. But it is in one place so there will be

:44:53.:45:02.

fighting as they choose who gets the first bite. At least it is

:45:02.:45:07.

spread out a bit. I'm sure you're glad it is not kicking off in front

:45:07.:45:12.

of you? They seem to be content and ignoring us. It is a fantastic

:45:12.:45:19.

opportunity to be so close to them. I am quite jealous, I have to say.

:45:19.:45:22.

Although they have been quite contented in front of you, it is a

:45:22.:45:27.

very different story when they are out on the African Savannah.

:45:27.:45:32.

The plains of Africa must seem like an all-you-can-eat buffet. It be go

:45:32.:45:37.

up in the sky we can see the pride have spotted a potential meal. What

:45:37.:45:41.

is it going to be this time? And their dinner is wearing stripy

:45:41.:45:47.

pyjamas, it is a herd of zebra. You can see they are taking up a

:45:47.:45:51.

formation around them. And they are keeping themselves as low to the

:45:51.:45:55.

ground as they can and spreading out to form an ambush. But they are

:45:55.:46:03.

moving very slowly, keeping down. Their profile is so low, they are

:46:03.:46:09.

pretty much invisible in the grass. They need to get very close to the

:46:09.:46:15.

zebra. Although they are very fast, they run out of gas very quickly.

:46:15.:46:19.

Now they are off, and one zebra has made the mistake of breaking away

:46:19.:46:25.

from the herd. It is down! It will be one fatal bite and it will be

:46:25.:46:32.

dinner for the Lions. What they hunt!

:46:32.:46:36.

They are over their eating contentedly. Live 'n' Deadly is

:46:36.:46:41.

about getting outside and getting active. But sometimes it is dark

:46:41.:46:46.

and miserable outside, in which case you might want to go to our

:46:46.:46:51.

Wellington boots. Go to the website and try to find a day out that is

:48:01.:48:04.

close to you because they are wonderful opportunities to

:48:04.:48:08.

experience incredible animals, trying out some animal art. It is a

:48:08.:48:18.
:48:18.:48:21.

You turned up in your thousands for this week's day out. Deadly artists

:48:21.:48:30.

were there to show you have to doodle. And the dazzling whiteness

:48:30.:48:35.

gave you a chance to have a goes. And no day is complete without

:48:35.:48:42.

these. And look at this emperor scorpions. It does have eyes, they

:48:42.:48:50.

Iraq a couple and some round the outside. -- there are a couple. But

:48:50.:48:56.

how does it send the world around it? Their legs. Vet tales. Be does

:48:56.:49:03.

not have a nose. Eight touched them and it goes through their body --

:49:03.:49:09.

They touched them. That is actually a really good. If you look closely,

:49:09.:49:16.

you can see pincers and the legs. They are long and really sensitive

:49:16.:49:22.

to vibrations and movement. Andy uses those to build up a mental

:49:22.:49:27.

picture of the world around it. -- and it uses those. This is fear

:49:27.:49:33.

some, but how does it catch its prey? It stinks it. Its paralyses

:49:33.:49:43.
:49:43.:49:45.

it. It has a stinking finger. is the scientific name! -- that is.

:49:45.:49:52.

It is the flesh off to eat it. is a gross weight of saying it but

:49:53.:50:01.

it is completely right. -- a gross away. It does have strength to

:50:01.:50:11.
:50:11.:50:11.

Marach up its prey and because it cannot digest it, it vomits it. --

:50:11.:50:18.

to crush its praise. It is pretty gross. So the hair-raising and

:50:18.:50:24.

seriously sensitive Emperor scorpion. It turns its victims into

:50:24.:50:31.

soup! Brilliant. So for a chance to come

:50:31.:50:36.

along to a day out, you can ring for a ticket hotline number. It is

:50:36.:50:46.
:50:46.:50:54.

It is getting better! It is not! Abysmal! This is the bit you are

:50:54.:51:03.

waiting for up. -- are waiting for. Those crabs found your feet to

:51:03.:51:09.

cheesy last week so this week, can we have a camel? And camel food. I

:51:09.:51:13.

will ask you these amazing questions that have been sent in.

:51:13.:51:21.

Good luck! The way is this distracting? How many teeth does a

:51:21.:51:28.

basking shark have? It has, it does not have proper teeth, it uses

:51:28.:51:33.

teeth to strain food out of the water but they are tiny. The answer

:51:33.:51:40.

is nobody knows, so I give you that. We are going to try and find out.

:51:40.:51:45.

Why do polar bears have such big paws? To keep them away from the

:51:45.:51:53.

snow, like snowshoes. A how fast can Eija Rafa run? -- how fast. 38

:51:53.:52:00.

kilometres an hour. It is a lot faster than a rethink. -- a gym

:52:00.:52:05.

Rafa. They can get up quite a pace. Is it true that spiders do not like

:52:05.:52:11.

conkers? That is an urban myth, I had seen it no scientific evidence

:52:11.:52:18.

but have heard that a lot. -- I have seen. It has been disproved by

:52:19.:52:28.
:52:29.:52:37.

his school in Cornwall. And where would you find... Aiteng. I do not

:52:37.:52:45.

know. It is a swamp in Thailand or Japan, an amphibious sea slugs. We

:52:46.:52:51.

beat him at the end! But he got four at a five despite become a

:52:51.:52:56.

distraction. That was not distracting, it was lovely. Not

:52:56.:53:02.

worthy of a police a -- of a place in the top 10. This is about deadly

:53:02.:53:08.

animals. We are happy to decide which goes into the top 10.

:53:08.:53:16.

cannot have two Falkands. We are not having that the rhino. What

:53:16.:53:22.

about these three? Why Ian, sea lion, kestrel? So you live in?

:53:22.:53:31.

Total silence! -- what about the sea lion? Total silence! Castrol?

:53:31.:53:39.

It is a lie in! -- Ally Ian. This is about UK wildlife, so I am going

:53:39.:53:45.

with the Castrol, which is on the top 10. You have put me on the spot

:53:45.:53:51.
