Ever get the feeling that something is totally out of your control?

:00:12.:00:15.

You a bit nervous about today?s show, Naomi?

:00:16.:00:17.

It?s just from where I?m sat, it's all looking a little bit downhill.

:00:18.:00:20.

Cheer up, Naomi, you?ll soon get into the swing of things.

:00:21.:00:23.

Then hold on tight, because we are about to go Wild!

:00:24.:01:13.

We?re here to inspire you to make that move off of the sofa and get

:01:14.:01:25.

And this week we are getting wild at Adrenalin Quarry just

:01:26.:01:32.

This place is wired for adventure so we?re filling it with some

:01:33.:01:41.

Yes, we?ve got Sean Conway, intrepid athlete and explorer.

:01:42.:02:09.

Some noise? Give it up for our wild audience! And if after filling

:02:10.:02:20.

yourself with all of yourself you find yourself a little peckish,

:02:21.:02:24.

tonight worry, because we've also got all of this. Time finds out that

:02:25.:02:30.

mucking in at a wildlife centre is no walk in the park. Park. Our Wild

:02:31.:02:36.

Things learn that mountain bikes come in all shapes and sizes when

:02:37.:02:43.

they ride the dirt tracks of deep Wale It feels like freedom. And we

:02:44.:02:52.

meet Sam, a nature detective in search of suburb an suspects. What

:02:53.:03:01.

an hour. And we don't want to just bring you great adventure. We want

:03:02.:03:05.

to bring you some fascinating animals too. Our first animal is a

:03:06.:03:10.

reptile, a scaly carnivore with a head for heights. The pterodactyl?

:03:11.:03:19.

Well, no, because they're extinct. What?! Are you? Radzi, have you

:03:20.:03:26.

heard this? While Tim comes to grips with that brand-new information,

:03:27.:03:31.

let's look at the monitor lizard. When did this happen then? There are

:03:32.:03:40.

around 73 species of monitorlieser Ards in the world and some are even

:03:41.:03:44.

able to count. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, from

:03:45.:03:52.

smaller ones through to the Komodo dragon, the world's largest lizard.

:03:53.:03:59.

With strong legs, jaws and clause, and reaching speeds of over 20 miles

:04:00.:04:05.

per hour, they are formidable feisty feasters. We have one here today.

:04:06.:04:13.

Please meet Dusty, who is a Busk monitor lizard. Luke, thank you for

:04:14.:04:19.

bringing him see us. Where would we find a lizard like this? They are

:04:20.:04:27.

also called Savannah lizards. He's a little slow today, is he fully

:04:28.:04:32.

grown? No, he's about a metre, but they can get up to a

:04:33.:04:36.

metre-and-a-half. We are saying it is a bit cold. He looks quite big.

:04:37.:04:42.

I'm imagining he could be quite slow and cumbersome, is that right? They

:04:43.:04:47.

can move quite fast. When they want to run fast they pick their bellies

:04:48.:04:51.

off the floor and get quite a speed up, and they can climb. Which is why

:04:52.:04:59.

we have seize logs set up like this to illustrate how strong a climber

:05:00.:05:04.

he. Is look at those clause, gripping to pull himself up. He

:05:05.:05:08.

could climb vertically if he wanted to? Yes. Why do they need to climb

:05:09.:05:16.

trees? They like to eat eggs, so they climb for the bird nests. Wild

:05:17.:05:22.

audience, come on over. I know you have questions. Do they have sharp

:05:23.:05:27.

teeth? That's a good question. A big lizard but their teeth are quite

:05:28.:05:32.

blunt but they've got power in their bite. They can crack through the

:05:33.:05:37.

shells of snails and crabs. How fast do they grow? Good question. They

:05:38.:05:42.

grow fast in the first bit of life. Over six months they can triple

:05:43.:05:46.

their size, which is like a baby growing to your size in six months.

:05:47.:05:50.

That's crazy. Andrew has actually tried that big swing that we did at

:05:51.:05:57.

the beginning of the programme. Why do they stick their tongues out? The

:05:58.:06:04.

same thing that snakes are doing. Like most lizards, he smells with

:06:05.:06:09.

his tongue. He's smelling, not being rude. Thank you for being such a

:06:10.:06:16.

brilliant creature, Dusty. Dusty. And Luke, thank you for bringing him

:06:17.:06:19.

to see us. Indulge your eyes on Zip lines, zorbing balls, rock

:06:20.:06:37.

climbing, but my favourite this week is Sam aged ten. He's geared up and

:06:38.:06:39.

ready. Tsunami of you at home have been

:06:40.:07:01.

sending in your clips of your animal impressions like this one from

:07:02.:07:06.

Milly. I'm Milly and I'm going to do age pressing of a duck for you.

:07:07.:07:16.

That's good. Well done Milly. This is from Gemma, inspired by our

:07:17.:07:21.

Dartmoor show and the Wolves. That's good. Keep sending them in.

:07:22.:07:34.

We want to hear from you, even if they are rubbish.

:07:35.:07:47.

You may have seen this picture already this week. It is part of our

:07:48.:07:55.

take a wild guess. So many of you think you know what it is. Violet

:07:56.:08:06.

says it might be a sloth. Some of you think it might be an owl. I'm

:08:07.:08:12.

going for Radzi's toenail. I wonder what it will be this week. I really

:08:13.:08:19.

don't know. I do think they're eyes. Keep your Wild guesses coming in.

:08:20.:08:20.

We'll tell you what it is towards We'll tell you what it is towards

:08:21.:08:26.

the the end of this show. Some of our more adventurous guests have a

:08:27.:08:32.

tendency to go wandering off in search of extreme distractions. Sean

:08:33.:08:38.

Conway is an endurance adventurer to the extreme. He cycles not only the

:08:39.:08:44.

length of Britain but around the world, pedalling 140 miles a day.

:08:45.:08:48.

Not content with this, he decided to be the first man to swim the length

:08:49.:08:53.

of Britain, in 2013. After 135 days at sea, he emerged from the water

:08:54.:08:58.

and helpeded straight into the history books. And here he, is

:08:59.:09:11.

whizzing in on the zip wire. It is endurance adventurary Sean Conway.

:09:12.:09:15.

Pretty impressive. Just like that set of clips we've just seen of his

:09:16.:09:20.

achievements. Hey! How are you? That was amazing. You call yourself an

:09:21.:09:26.

endurance adventurer so what drives you to do these challenges? You

:09:27.:09:30.

certainly like to put yourself to the test. Test. I think it is fear

:09:31.:09:35.

after leading on ordinary life. I did that for too long and I made a

:09:36.:09:39.

conscious decision to make the most of life and add days to my life.

:09:40.:09:45.

Tell us some of your recent activities? In 2012 I attempted the

:09:46.:09:50.

world record for round the world cycling. You cycled around the

:09:51.:09:54.

world? To Australia and turned around. How many miles was that?

:09:55.:10:00.

16,000 miles in 116 days. Wow! That was quite tough, that one. More

:10:01.:10:05.

eventually I became the first person in history to swim Land's End to

:10:06.:10:09.

John o'Groats up to coast, four-and-a-half months at sea. Tell

:10:10.:10:13.

us about some of the hard challenges you faced? 20 foot waves, freezing

:10:14.:10:19.

cold warm. Mostly the jellyfish. I kept being stung on the face by

:10:20.:10:24.

jellyfish, so I grew this beard as a jellyfish protector. On your

:10:25.:10:28.

journeys you must have spotted some fantastic wildlife. It is amazing.

:10:29.:10:32.

The great in Great Britain is there for a reason. I swam with dolphins

:10:33.:10:40.

and seals and saw loads of fish and wildlife, puffins and explored

:10:41.:10:44.

islands that pirates used to occupy. You've been to places other people

:10:45.:10:49.

can't reach? Yes, especially when you pull into little coves and see

:10:50.:10:54.

shipwrecks. How have you coped with injuries? My biggest one is I was

:10:55.:11:00.

run over in America. Just take each day as it comings and listen to my

:11:01.:11:04.

trainer and sit down and stretch and go to the gym. Get back outdoors.

:11:05.:11:11.

That heals your mind a lot. You are so inspirational. Thank you Sean for

:11:12.:11:15.

coming on the show. It would be a real shame not to put your swimming

:11:16.:11:20.

skills to the test on the show. Radzi has wild swimming experience,

:11:21.:11:24.

so we have decided to set you both a swimming sprint challenge. OK.

:11:25.:11:29.

Complete with a few surprises thrown in. We are going to send you off to

:11:30.:11:35.

get ready for that. We think it is good every once in a while to take

:11:36.:11:38.

yourself out of your comfort zone. good every once in a while to take

:11:39.:11:41.

Tim was certainly out of his when he had to go mucking out at a rescue

:11:42.:11:44.

centre. Our presenter Tim is snoring like a

:11:45.:11:59.

buffalo! He's going to be late for work. Tim! Get up, Tim! No! Society

:12:00.:12:19.

I'm heading to the Secret World wildlife rescue centre to get up

:12:20.:12:23.

close and personal with a few animals in need. Provided I make it

:12:24.:12:29.

there on time. Come on, Tim, the you are keeping these animals waiting

:12:30.:12:37.

and they're getting hungry. I made it. But only just, Tim. Hello. Hi

:12:38.:12:44.

Tim. ? Welcome to Secret World. Thank you for having me. You're

:12:45.:12:48.

welcome. I'm ready to go. Let's do this. You are going to need a little

:12:49.:12:54.

bit of protection. That's your top, trousers to protect those legs and a

:12:55.:12:58.

definite need for a pair of wellingtons? For walking dogs and

:12:59.:13:03.

stroking cats? I tonight think we'll be doing that today. I'm afraid

:13:04.:13:07.

quite a lot of it will involve a bit of poo option. She said poo. You

:13:08.:13:14.

need to get changed let's get started. Looking sharp, Tim, but

:13:15.:13:20.

that uniform won't be staying clean for long. Hi, I hear you've got a

:13:21.:13:23.

job for me. Yes, feeding foxes. for long. Hi, I hear you've got a

:13:24.:13:31.

Great, what do they eat? We've got dog food, dog biscuits, sausages,

:13:32.:13:35.

chicken, apple. That doesn't look bad. Would you like some sausage?

:13:36.:13:48.

Shshe says, I'll have this and then I will take that. Although these

:13:49.:13:52.

foxing look friendly it is important to remember that they are at Secret

:13:53.:13:56.

World, as they wouldn't survive by themselves. You should never

:13:57.:13:59.

approach one in the wild. If you find an injured animal, tell an

:14:00.:14:04.

adult, who can contact a wildlife hospital. Do you want some more?

:14:05.:14:13.

Come on then. Just feeding foxes out of your hands. No big deal. I don't

:14:14.:14:21.

think I will ever get to do anything like that again. You never know.

:14:22.:14:27.

Feeding foxes was an easy job to get you warmed up, Tim. Now it's time to

:14:28.:14:40.

get your hands dirty. Hi Josie. Hi, welcome to your next pen. You will

:14:41.:14:44.

smell a lot of horrible things here but these are herring gull chicks.

:14:45.:14:56.

That's right, cleaning baby seagull poo. Hi guys.

:14:57.:15:05.

It's all right! There we go. There is one of them. That one pecked me!

:15:06.:15:26.

That was easy! Onto next job! Right, I will get you... What is this? In

:15:27.:15:36.

the wild, a herring gull would eat half a pound of fish every day,

:15:37.:15:43.

making their blues so acidic, it could strip from your car. -- their

:15:44.:15:54.

to. You are not done yet. Hopefully in a few years these guys will not

:15:55.:16:01.

be stealing my chips. With the floor dried, what do the seagulls think of

:16:02.:16:05.

your job? Look at these guys! They are so cute! And harmless! Don't

:16:06.:16:20.

panic! You have already pooed on the floor. Thanks! You need to keep this

:16:21.:16:26.

place clean! I don't have time to clean up after you lot, understand?

:16:27.:16:36.

You walking too slow for me. You have plenty of jobs to be getting on

:16:37.:16:42.

with. What a nice little place for a rest. You can't stop! We have a

:16:43.:16:52.

special visitor. Really? That is what you get for sitting down on the

:16:53.:17:01.

job. Shall we go? Let us go. That is feed the special visitor. Special

:17:02.:17:10.

visitor? -- let us. We will show you this little fawn. She has been here

:17:11.:17:17.

for one week. She is in the corner. She is trying to hide. We were just

:17:18.:17:27.

put some broughs up for her and also we have some rose petals. How did

:17:28.:17:34.

you get your? Unfortunately, she was chased into a river by a dog and she

:17:35.:17:38.

was struggling so we had to rescue her. We looked around to see if we

:17:39.:17:43.

could find her mother but she was nowhere to be seen so she had to be

:17:44.:17:47.

brought to us and when she came in she was very weak, she could not

:17:48.:17:51.

even stand up. But she is getting about really well and she is so well

:17:52.:17:57.

camouflaged you can hardly see her! We will let her settle. There she

:17:58.:18:10.

goes! She is right there. She has not got a mummy. But, next to this

:18:11.:18:16.

place, she will grow old old enough to be a mummy, how nice is that? The

:18:17.:18:26.

last job of the day is one that will really make you flap! Catching Tab

:18:27.:18:34.

one, ready for release. They have been nursed back to health so they

:18:35.:18:38.

need to be rounded up. -- catching Tab one. -- gulls.

:18:39.:18:59.

need to be rounded up. -- catching this is for the best! To the skies.

:19:00.:19:00.

Not us, the birds! UVR, this is the release site. Are

:19:01.:19:15.

you sad to see them UVR, this is the release site. Are

:19:16.:19:21.

get them into the wild? Both, really. We have put time and effort

:19:22.:19:25.

into reading them but this is the emotional that they are gone.

:19:26.:19:35.

However, it is time. One, two, three... You have done such a good

:19:36.:19:45.

job, they don't want to leave you! CU! He is off! Yes! They are off!

:19:46.:20:02.

That was good! I feel very emotional. Look at them, they have

:20:03.:20:08.

never flown that this before. They are properly stretching their wings.

:20:09.:20:13.

You have actually done a very good job, I am impressed! Job well done.

:20:14.:20:18.

By all at secret world. Well done. Those gulls were certainly happy to

:20:19.:20:28.

see the water again but is Radzi? Look at you! This is my favourite

:20:29.:20:50.

summing cap! Here we go, 75 kilograms of your Wolverhampton Eve,

:20:51.:20:54.

a man with little training in underwater swimming. Against a man

:20:55.:21:00.

who has slammed the length of the UK. Are you ready? -- swam. What an

:21:01.:21:15.

entry! Sean Conway going for the back is -- backflip. There are some

:21:16.:21:25.

icebergs here, Sean would have encountered them in northern

:21:26.:21:31.

Scotland. There is a turtle and also some jellyfish. Also, there is a

:21:32.:21:41.

dolphin! Radzi is struggling. He has taken a breath of water. He is not

:21:42.:21:48.

an amphibian. He will grab a league, if you can. He is pulling on all of

:21:49.:21:55.

his... You will swim into the back, here. Grab his leg, Radzi! Do

:21:56.:22:05.

whatever it takes! Radzi Slam for Blue Peter in an open water

:22:06.:22:08.

challenge but I do not think this is enough, the winner is Sean Conway!

:22:09.:22:19.

That was fantastic stuff. The boys clearly out of breath. How was it?

:22:20.:22:24.

That was unbelievable, I am embarrassed about how tired I am.

:22:25.:22:32.

John, absolute leisure. -- Sean Conway, absolute leisure. Ladies and

:22:33.:22:44.

gentlemen, your winner! To be fair, Sean has had more practice.

:22:45.:22:48.

Now, away from the wacky races we?re about to meet a wonderful bird that

:22:49.:22:52.

can certainly stand its ground on the dramatic plains of Africa.

:22:53.:22:57.

Secretary bird spoil the same hunting grounds as the Lion in

:22:58.:23:03.

Africa on lakes that make them up to 1.2 metres tall, the height of the

:23:04.:23:07.

nine-year-old. And those legs pack a punch. As they use them not only to

:23:08.:23:12.

walk, but to attack prey. Especially snakes. Using their wings as

:23:13.:23:18.

shields, they will stamp the snake to death before swallowing it whole.

:23:19.:23:23.

This fancy footwork, not to mention funky feathers, makes them pretty

:23:24.:23:26.

peculiar birds of prey. And who is this? She is an

:23:27.:23:42.

18-month-old secretary bird. She has called Lady. Don't be afraid? Not at

:23:43.:23:49.

all, she is gentle. She is more nervous than us! She is quite

:23:50.:23:55.

scared. She can be, but she is dropping right into this, she has

:23:56.:23:59.

been watching everything, especially the hedgehogs! Why are they called

:24:00.:24:04.

secretary bird 's? If you look at the top of her head, all of those

:24:05.:24:09.

feathers, in the 1800 's, they would wear wigs, secretarys, so that is

:24:10.:24:18.

why. In that clip we could see one of those birds having a fight with

:24:19.:24:27.

this neck. What was going on? -- with a snake. That is the main diet

:24:28.:24:34.

and when they hunt snakes, they can kick it to death. They are

:24:35.:24:38.

incredibly powerful. You have a snake? We might be able to

:24:39.:24:44.

demonstrate! I have. Are we ready for this? Holdback! You have to look

:24:45.:24:54.

scared! This is the snake! What is she doing? She is killing it! She is

:24:55.:25:01.

pulverising it! And she will kill it. You have a question? What praise

:25:02.:25:10.

on the secretary bird? Mainly the cat family, cats love ditches birds

:25:11.:25:14.

so that is the main problem and when their babies, Al Zahra very big

:25:15.:25:23.

problem but that is it. -- -- owls are. Can they fly? They are

:25:24.:25:30.

beautiful and flying, but with these long legs, they spend as much time

:25:31.:25:35.

on the ground as possible. They are running around, keeping them fit!

:25:36.:25:43.

One more question? Can you remember, it was about using their wings? Why

:25:44.:25:50.

do they have such big wings? Therefore flying but also

:25:51.:25:55.

protection, when you are hunting for snakes, you need that big shield. We

:25:56.:26:05.

must stress, that was only 840 snake, she enjoyed that! I have

:26:06.:26:09.

never seen a bird like that. Thank you. Tim is with the next animal

:26:10.:26:12.

guest. She is at a safe distance. Mark, welcome. With the secretary

:26:13.:26:34.

bird make a meal from Bella? This is a North African hedgehog and this is

:26:35.:26:41.

Bella. She is absolutely gorgeous. She is sleeping at the moment.

:26:42.:26:47.

Similar to the UK hedgehog? Very similar, they seem smaller but this

:26:48.:26:51.

is the standard size. She is much lighter because she comes from the

:26:52.:26:55.

Desert area so it helps keep the sun away. And in North Africa, they do

:26:56.:27:04.

not have many hedges? She would be found in mountain and scrub but not

:27:05.:27:08.

to drive because would not many insects to eat. -- too dry. Like UK

:27:09.:27:21.

hedgehogs, they are not turtle and a forage for food and she has very

:27:22.:27:27.

good hearing and a sense of smell? We have hidden insects for her but

:27:28.:27:31.

she is shy. She would use her big years to track those dying and her

:27:32.:27:37.

shiny nose. She is fast asleep! Which is probably where I would

:27:38.:27:45.

prefer to be! This early! These spines are quite similar to the UK

:27:46.:27:50.

hedgehog? The very light and hollow. She is very well protected and she

:27:51.:27:56.

can curl herself into a prickly ball. Unfortunately, she is not

:27:57.:28:00.

going to wake up. Hedgehogs do not make very good pets at all. But you

:28:01.:28:05.

can make your garden very friendly for hedgehog two, so get to the

:28:06.:28:12.

website and search for the make your garden hedgehog friendly fact sheet

:28:13.:28:15.

and you can download that. garden hedgehog friendly fact sheet

:28:16.:28:21.

interrupt. We have some serious business! Thank you for joining us.

:28:22.:28:32.

And thank you very much. The jury is in place. Hopefully the judge has

:28:33.:28:38.

put in his teeth and another animal is getting ready to await its fate.

:28:39.:28:44.

Mr Wasp, you hover before us today accused of disturbing the peace,

:28:45.:29:15.

inciting violence and causing bodily harm. You've been accused of

:29:16.:29:22.

sabotaging many a friendly outdoor picnic as well as other alfresco

:29:23.:29:28.

dining arrangements. Defending you today... For the head prosecution,

:29:29.:29:44.

please outline my case. Boo. Why are you booing me? It's a wasp! The

:29:45.:29:51.

constant antisocial behaviour of the wasp, especially around food during

:29:52.:29:54.

the summer month has struck terror into the hearts of those who like to

:29:55.:30:02.

spend time outdoors. You like to picnic and barbecue? Yes. The very

:30:03.:30:13.

sight of this is enough to make the hardiest of people go indoors. The

:30:14.:30:16.

sight of this is enough to make the wasp is just searching for

:30:17.:30:21.

high-energy food that needs to not just build but maintain a fantastic

:30:22.:30:26.

wasp nest just like this one. Look at that work of art. A single wasp

:30:27.:30:30.

nest can hold over Wasps. They lost need to feed their

:30:31.:30:38.

young. So come on, everybody, surely we should toll late, even admire the

:30:39.:30:47.

wasp Too much admiration. Ms Naomi Wilkinson you've displayed the wasp

:30:48.:30:51.

to be in the wrong place at the wrong time, so Mr Ward, why do you

:30:52.:30:57.

have such a problem with its behaviours? It is all about this, my

:30:58.:31:03.

Lord. This is the It is all about this, my Lord.

:31:04.:31:04.

Lord. This is the It is all about weapon of choice - the stinger. This

:31:05.:31:10.

needle-sharp point, the wasp spears its victim, causing harm and... He

:31:11.:31:17.

is exaggerating the size of this so-called weapon. It is really not

:31:18.:31:24.

that big. It is tiny. Sustained. I agree with everything you've said,

:31:25.:31:29.

Ms Wilkinson. I was trying to illustrate a point. It was pun.

:31:30.:31:34.

There is no doubt that this sting right here is used to maim innocent

:31:35.:31:40.

by standers. Repeated aggressive use of this sting is enough to induce

:31:41.:31:44.

swellings, to folk all over the country. My Lord, I must stress this

:31:45.:31:50.

weapon is not designed to cause terror to us humans. It is a very

:31:51.:31:57.

useful tool. The wasp needs to use it to capture and immobilise insect

:31:58.:32:03.

pests that would destroy our crops or food. Gardeners love them,

:32:04.:32:09.

because they would eat all of your cabbages. If you are fighting for

:32:10.:32:14.

survival, who wouldn't. If you leave them alone, they will leave you

:32:15.:32:18.

alone. What else do they do that's good? They are pollinators. What? Do

:32:19.:32:25.

you like food? Do you like flowers? Yes, roses. Without Wasps you would

:32:26.:32:34.

not have half as much. Stop distracting me, this savage beast is

:32:35.:32:40.

indiscriminate in its task... Order! You two come round here. Any more of

:32:41.:32:45.

that and you're going to be spending at least two-and-a-half minutes in

:32:46.:32:48.

the naughty corner, do you understand me? Sorry, my Lord.

:32:49.:32:55.

Indeed. Throughout this case you've described the wasp to be something

:32:56.:32:59.

which would be welcome to parties and picnics, not feared. On the

:33:00.:33:04.

other hand, Mr Ward, you have explained that the wasp's sting does

:33:05.:33:09.

mart and should be feared by humans. Jury, it is over to you. The due

:33:10.:33:13.

deem the was top be guilty or not guilty? Raise your paddles now,

:33:14.:33:20.

aloft with pride. It is a landslide in the courthouse. I deem this court

:33:21.:33:34.

to deem the wasp not guilty. What?! Attack that Timothy. Now, he is

:33:35.:33:42.

continually running, that wasp. This court is now officially closed. It

:33:43.:33:49.

is now time to meet some really Wild Things. Seriously, not guilty? I

:33:50.:33:51.

would have sent him down myself. Mountain biking is one of the UK's

:33:52.:33:58.

most widespread extreme sports. But modern bikes

:33:59.:34:01.

feature three wheels and handcycle options to make them accessible to

:34:02.:34:03.

everyone and this week's Wild I have

:34:04.:34:06.

a condition called cerebral palsy and I have had an operation and if I

:34:07.:34:13.

did not have the operation, I would It is one

:34:14.:34:17.

of my dreams to ride a bike. I know it sounds easy

:34:18.:34:25.

but it is not for some people. And this weekend, Nick will finally

:34:26.:34:30.

try his hand at mountain biking. I met Patrick because my dad

:34:31.:34:38.

and his dad are best friends. He is 14 and he likes outdoors,

:34:39.:34:41.

like me. Liam likes cricket,

:34:42.:34:45.

football and rugby and he is Nick and his friends are common to

:34:46.:34:48.

this visitors' centre in North Wales,

:34:49.:35:01.

where they will get to experience Joining them today is

:35:02.:35:03.

our expert biker, Graham. I am already muddy

:35:04.:35:08.

and we have not even started. The other thing is,

:35:09.:35:19.

we could fall of? So what we're going to do is have

:35:20.:35:21.

our first rule, which is no lid, A standard mountain bike is not

:35:22.:35:25.

going to suit everybody so Graham has brought along some

:35:26.:35:39.

other types for the guys to try. That is a good thing

:35:40.:35:43.

so anybody who struggles with You can steer with your

:35:44.:35:53.

hands or your chest. The idea is these are not

:35:54.:36:07.

for specific peope but we can share It is time for Nick and the guys

:36:08.:36:25.

to get saddled up and start learning the skills they will need to master

:36:26.:36:29.

the different types of Althoug, like Nick,

:36:30.:36:32.

this is their first time While the boys get going, Graham

:36:33.:36:34.

sets up to test their skills. All right, guys, this is a true test

:36:35.:36:49.

of whether you can steer or not. With all of the guys mixing it up,

:36:50.:36:53.

Graham has one more bike for Nick If you just want to follow me,

:36:54.:37:24.

we're going to head down the hill. Let's go!

:37:25.:37:42.

on some new stuff. With the training complete, it is

:37:43.:37:47.

time for the guys to put the bikes OK, guys,

:37:48.:37:50.

if you look through the trees we have got the skills loop and there

:37:51.:37:58.

is some nice riding to be done. You will get a few chances

:37:59.:38:04.

to try different bikes. It is one of my dreams

:38:05.:38:07.

and it has finally come true. My favourite bike was the trike

:38:08.:39:00.

because it was like a go-kart. My favourite one was the mountain

:39:01.:39:28.

bike because I have never been I have had a really good

:39:29.:39:30.

time because we were laughing I found it quite scary, I thought

:39:31.:39:34.

it was a great experience. It is guys like Nicholas who show

:39:35.:40:00.

that it is possible to have a great time outdoors This is a good way to

:40:01.:40:04.

wake up. We are about to try our hand and Keast earring. Get up

:40:05.:40:09.

there, guys. Don't be foot-and-mouthed by the name.

:40:10.:40:12.

Coasteering doesn't have to be done at the coast. It can be done in a

:40:13.:40:20.

quarry like this. It is a mixture of swim something, rock climbing and

:40:21.:40:24.

diving. If you are going to have a go at this, don't do it on your own,

:40:25.:40:29.

make sure you are with someone who knows what they are doing and you

:40:30.:40:30.

have the right safety equipment. knows what they are doing and you

:40:31.:40:36.

is here, the leaf of destiny. Like I said, I've got all the correct

:40:37.:40:40.

things that you need to do this. I've got a wet suit to keep me nice

:40:41.:40:46.

and warm and protect my knees. I've got boots on to protect my feet.

:40:47.:40:53.

I've got a buoyancy aid, and my lid to protect my head from any rocks.

:40:54.:41:00.

And it is a case of clambering on the rock face to find a place to

:41:01.:41:06.

leap off. I'm joined by expert Joe. Good morning. Good morning. We've

:41:07.:41:12.

made Ed. You want to get in as straight as possible. Keep your head

:41:13.:41:16.

up, don't look down at the water. Get those arms across your body.

:41:17.:41:24.

Let's see it. A textbook entry. This is Beth. What do you like about

:41:25.:41:29.

coast earring? I like the fun of it. Going

:41:30.:41:33.

coast earring? I like the fun of it. It is so much fun. Let's see you

:41:34.:41:36.

jump in. This is what we like to see. Is that's good. The that was

:41:37.:41:41.

more of a dart-like entry. Milly, good morning. Good morning. How long

:41:42.:41:48.

have you been coasteering for? Not long, my first time today.

:41:49.:41:51.

have you been coasteering for? Not you love about it? The freefall and

:41:52.:41:56.

getting in the water. Let's see the leap of destiny. Very nice.

:41:57.:41:58.

getting in the water. Let's see the what do you like about it? My

:41:59.:42:03.

favourite thing is the hang time in the air before you hit the water.

:42:04.:42:08.

You are an expert, in you've done bigger drops than this? I have. My

:42:09.:42:13.

knees are starting to shake a bit, so maybe you should jump in while I

:42:14.:42:19.

summon the courage. Give us a textbook entry. Yes! Good stuff. It

:42:20.:42:24.

is a lot higher than it looks when you're up here. Arms nice and tight.

:42:25.:42:39.

I'm going in. Yes! I went about 10 metres and I swallowed loads of

:42:40.:42:45.

water! That was good. Have a good at coasteering. You'll love it.

:42:46.:42:51.

Coasteering on live TV. That's pretty epic. If you do have a go, go

:42:52.:42:57.

with an organised group and will you be with somebody who knees the area

:42:58.:43:06.

now. Now I introduce to you once more Dr Cockerel's bizarre baz Roll

:43:07.:43:15.

up, roll up, gather round to see the seriously strange and utterly

:43:16.:43:20.

unexpected in my bizarre bazaar. For your viewing pleasure, ladies and

:43:21.:43:25.

gentlemen we have the multi-legged African giant Milly speed. Wow, they

:43:26.:43:30.

are big aren't they? They are. Would you like to hold one? ? Could we?

:43:31.:43:35.

They are safe to hold? Fantastic. How does it feel? It is rippling

:43:36.:43:41.

along. You can feel their scratchy little legs. They are quite heavy.

:43:42.:43:47.

You think because they are called a Milly speed they have 1 million

:43:48.:43:59.

legs? No, mill i means 1,000. Each segment on the millipede has about

:44:00.:44:04.

to pairs of legs, whereas on a centipede, which looks similar,

:44:05.:44:09.

there is only one pair of legs better segment. Would you find these

:44:10.:44:15.

in the UK? Not quite as big as this. We do get millipedes in the UK. This

:44:16.:44:19.

is one of the biggest in the world. It gets to 40 cm long. However,

:44:20.:44:26.

there's a species in California which has 600 legs, that's more than

:44:27.:44:30.

any other animal on the planet. Is that right? Do they have any forms

:44:31.:44:36.

of defence? Yes. Thesing is aren't very important. If somebody comes

:44:37.:44:40.

along to try to eat this millipede, can curl into a spiral and protect

:44:41.:44:46.

itself with this hard exoskeleton. What's an exoskeleton? Unlike us, we

:44:47.:44:52.

have our skeletons on the inside, but millipedes, centipedes, insects

:44:53.:44:54.

and crabs have theirs on the outside. On the millipede it is very

:44:55.:44:59.

important for protection. They have another trick up your sleeve, if

:45:00.:45:03.

they try to get eaten by something, they can produce a very dangerous

:45:04.:45:09.

poisonous chemical. In some species it is so strange it spell smells

:45:10.:45:14.

like marzipan. It would smell pretty good but not taste good to any

:45:15.:45:20.

animal. Very poisonous. All the way to Africa to adrenaline quarry.

:45:21.:45:24.

Thank you so much Dr Tim for enlightening us once again. Now it

:45:25.:45:28.

is time to meet a wild detective who is on the search for beastly clues.

:45:29.:45:48.

exploring the jungle. The urban jungle. Most people in my area do

:45:49.:45:55.

not think there is a lot of wildlife around but they just need to open

:45:56.:45:59.

their eyes and look. I love wildlife. What is wildlife tracking?

:46:00.:46:08.

It is tracking for wildlife, think it -- think of it like being the

:46:09.:46:13.

Sherlock Holmes of nature. But includes together to make a story.

:46:14.:46:16.

How did this happen -- this animal die? The clues are, talents,

:46:17.:46:28.

feathers, dead animals, even sn. And, of course, to. It is exciting,

:46:29.:46:37.

you never know what you will find. This is truly close to my house and

:46:38.:46:41.

we have find some pretty cool stuff. We have this shell from a knot, and

:46:42.:46:50.

the animal has eaten through the shell and then, this is

:46:51.:46:58.

underdeveloped and I will get out my magnifying glass. There are some

:46:59.:47:03.

bite marks. The animal did not like it. This is what I think was

:47:04.:47:21.

probably a squirrel. This is a tail feather. It is fluorescent, it

:47:22.:47:26.

shines in the light. It is very hard to find, you need to look around the

:47:27.:47:32.

ground. We need to have a very good eye. They are completely green

:47:33.:47:37.

except for the big, which really stands out. It is bright red. That

:47:38.:47:44.

is the easiest thing to spot. I have about five of these. What we have

:47:45.:47:57.

got here is where the swan has been killed or died, you can see feathers

:47:58.:48:02.

or the tail feathers, and we have some more wing feathers. They have

:48:03.:48:08.

been stained and some breast feathers and Tommy feathers and neck

:48:09.:48:13.

feathers, they are all here and most of the meat has rotted away or

:48:14.:48:17.

perhaps it has been eaten. It is all about the way that it died, this is

:48:18.:48:22.

the third one that has died in the last month. Here we have got but I

:48:23.:48:29.

think is a foxhole, it could also be for the badger. And there are some

:48:30.:48:39.

swan feathers, we have these clubs. -- clumps. A body must have been

:48:40.:48:44.

dragged down there, they perhaps brought it here. It could be that it

:48:45.:48:50.

died here and the aged over here. While it could have dragged it down

:48:51.:48:54.

here and emptied the bones over there. And the feathers. It is great

:48:55.:49:00.

here, we don't eat a travel far from home to find some great wildlife.

:49:01.:49:10.

What a superb sleuth, and if you want to do that, we have the perfect

:49:11.:49:12.

solution in the crazy creation. The best way to watch wildlife

:49:13.:49:27.

is to become invisible. You have got 90 seconds to recreate

:49:28.:49:42.

this to the best of your ability. Go! You start off with a cardboard

:49:43.:49:56.

box and you can colour best to blend in with the background, around the

:49:57.:50:01.

back, remember this, you have to make a hole big enough to get into

:50:02.:50:05.

but not so large that it makes it flimsy. Keep it as tight and compact

:50:06.:50:14.

as you can. And then, we can put some trellis over the box, and some

:50:15.:50:20.

full age, which is here. We have added this living roof, there is

:50:21.:50:26.

more so and insect, we can decorate this with plants, it will

:50:27.:50:36.

more so and insect, we can decorate disappear. -- moss and insects. All

:50:37.:50:41.

of this is online. Tim has been camouflaged. We're basically getting

:50:42.:50:48.

as much fully age in here as possible and some pine cones to

:50:49.:50:59.

attract squirrels. -- foliage. Anyone can make this, this is just a

:51:00.:51:02.

cardboard box. Ready for the countdown? Seven, six, five...

:51:03.:51:17.

Three, two, one! Stop making! Judgement time! Do you know what?

:51:18.:51:25.

Give them a round of applause! That was solid. Absolutely brilliant.

:51:26.:51:32.

Give them a round of applause! That know what, that is very good.

:51:33.:51:36.

Another round of applause. I am getting myself ready with some

:51:37.:51:42.

deodorant so that I smell nice when the birds,

:51:43.:51:46.

deodorant so that I smell nice when because I will be waiting for a very

:51:47.:51:49.

long time. That will put animals off! But a very good job. They'll me

:51:50.:51:58.

is the winner. You have the forfeit, which is a belter! You will be

:51:59.:52:12.

meeting the Blob! Yes! Before then, C Tim and his mate in the world of

:52:13.:52:16.

Bush craft! -- let us see. Welcome to the programme, this is my

:52:17.:52:49.

professional companion. In this episode we will show you how to

:52:50.:52:52.

become invisible in the wild. It is the number one rule. You must become

:52:53.:52:59.

nature to experience nature and that takes camouflaged. Perfect

:53:00.:53:06.

camouflage! You are so right. Shall we get into our camo-gear? Just

:53:07.:53:14.

doing up my shoeless. Time for the ultimate game of hide and seek. I

:53:15.:53:19.

will hide, you will seek me. Count to ten! One, two, ten! Tim? Tim?

:53:20.:53:36.

Where are you? It is getting late! to ten! One, two, ten! Tim? Tim?

:53:37.:53:53.

you use camouflage! Don't do that! I was good! I knew that you were there

:53:54.:53:59.

the whole time! Might! Look around you, OK? Look at the forest floor,

:54:00.:54:14.

use what is here, the foliage. Gendo? Gendo? I can see you! No, you

:54:15.:54:22.

use what is here, the foliage. can't! I can, it is the Sox! Shame.

:54:23.:54:37.

Nice suit, though! Yes! Thank you. I'm much I will take advice from

:54:38.:54:45.

those boys. There is another episode on the website exclusively online.

:54:46.:54:48.

You can see what steps you will on the website exclusively online.

:54:49.:54:54.

up! You can also find out about the wild guess results. Thank you. What

:54:55.:55:03.

do you think that is? Lots of you have got it right! Well done! Just a

:55:04.:55:13.

few of you, lavender pickle Fox, gold rugged tool, but I got it

:55:14.:55:19.

wrong! It is the African pygmy hedgehog. Even if you said hedgehog,

:55:20.:55:25.

we have given that to you. We will have another next week. Look at how

:55:26.:55:30.

much this is filling up with pictures. Ben and Libby doing body

:55:31.:55:36.

boarding! I am glad the shark did not do that to me last week! Keep

:55:37.:55:43.

sending those pictures into us. And send them with your name and a

:55:44.:55:51.

parent or guardian's from them. It is time for the forfeit. Are we up

:55:52.:55:57.

for this? From the top of the tower you can see Joel and Ella, they will

:55:58.:56:04.

jump off, onto the Blob, and that should launch Tim into the sky and

:56:05.:56:12.

he will splat into the cold water! This will be a big! Let us do it!

:56:13.:56:16.

Release the asset! Oh, my goodness! He a complete flip. Is he OK? You

:56:17.:56:37.

can hear him! He is still breathing. He is fine. Can we see that again in

:56:38.:56:42.

slow motion? He flipped completely! He does so

:56:43.:56:53.

well to land feet first! I would love to do that! I think he actually

:56:54.:57:01.

enjoy that! He was cheering! Did you enjoy that? Goodbye, everybody,

:57:02.:57:06.

thank you for watching! That was awesome! Thank you to everybody for

:57:07.:57:16.

coming along. And to the Adrenalin Quarry for giving us access to this

:57:17.:57:21.

phenomenal playground. And Sean Conway! Give him a round of

:57:22.:57:29.

applause! Graham, look, Tim and Mark! We will be back next Saturday.

:57:30.:57:39.

Until then - get up, get out and go wild! Next week, Georgia shows us

:57:40.:57:46.

the risen more than one way of spotting nature with special

:57:47.:57:50.

cameras. I will harness the awesome power of the wind and swallow a lot

:57:51.:57:55.

of sea water as I try out kite surfing. And we put teamwork to the

:57:56.:58:05.

ultimate test. Let's go wild!
