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. | |

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. | |
for many weeks, I am going to turn the tables. We got in a zoo and all | :53:51. | :53:56. | |
the animals create waste material. We are putting it to good use in | :53:56. | :54:06. | |
:54:06. | :54:08. | ||
this feature... Whose poo at the zoo? I spend a lot of time up to my | :54:08. | :54:16. | |
arms in poo. It is a great way of identifying a animals. Poo is a | :54:16. | :54:21. | |
very useful, so I wanted to identify from what it has left | :54:21. | :54:28. | |
behind this animal -- so I want you. Do I smell it? What has it been | :54:29. | :54:38. | |
:54:39. | :54:38. | ||
feeding gone? What is inside? hey? It is fresh and sticky. And I | :54:39. | :54:44. | |
would say it is a surprisingly small dropping for this animal. | :54:44. | :54:49. | |
it is a big animal? And this is not realistic, in the wild, it would be | :54:49. | :54:54. | |
scattered over a wild animal -- a wild area because it has dropped | :54:54. | :55:04. | |
:55:04. | :55:09. | ||
from a height. Giraffe. I am so tempted to plant your face in this! | :55:09. | :55:17. | |
If this was in the wild, this could have a blue berries, fish scales. | :55:17. | :55:25. | |
Salmon scales. What do you reckon? It can be predatory. How up make! | :55:25. | :55:34. | |
Any ideas? The suspense! -- help me. Is it a bear? | :55:34. | :55:43. | |
What do you reckon? Elephant? It is big and I have seen this before. | :55:43. | :55:49. | |
could not be more perfect. -- you could not beat. This is from a | :55:49. | :55:59. | |
rhinoceros! That was lovely! Were should make it a regular feature! - | :55:59. | :56:03. | |
- we should. Has anybody been getting in touch? We have had a | :56:03. | :56:10. | |
picture today. This is from Robin, who is eight. You are holding a | :56:10. | :56:18. | |
bird of prey. Robin, great photograph! And we have comments. | :56:18. | :56:23. | |
We have saffron, 10, I have been in a river and had a fissionable in my | :56:23. | :56:29. | |
toes! And will says, during the summer, I went caving and canoeing. | :56:29. | :56:35. | |
That is the spirit! Do not forget about the days out and get a grown- | :56:35. | :56:41. | |
up to apply for it ticket to an event. Do not forget your wellies! | :56:41. | :56:47. | |
We have had a lovely time. This has come up trumps, apart from the sea | :56:47. | :56:53. | |
eagle, which was a disappointment. But it made up for those Kamals! | :56:53. | :56:59. | |
Brilliant, we had a lovely time. And Bank you to minute idol, Andy | :56:59. | :57:09. | |
:57:09. | :57:10. | ||
Murray! -- thank you to make idle. I am what was the website again? | :57:10. | :57:16. | |
have no idea! -- and what was. Get on the website. Back next Saturday, | :57:16. | :57:26. | |
see you then! The convoy is off on a journey | :57:26. | :57:31. | |
again, but nobody knows where it will end. Take we are looking at | :57:31. | :57:37. | |
the UK's most beautiful birds of prey and going skywards! Stephen is | :57:37. | :57:42. | |
on at a Scottish adventure to find evidence of a new arrival with a | :57:42. | :57:47. |
