00:00:00Morning, a joyous time to be had here in the garden.
00:00:04It's scanning time on the farm.
00:00:06We're standing by to take a closer look at Mystique here,
00:00:10our supreme champion miniature Shetland pony
00:00:13and her unborn foal.
00:00:16She's going to be a new mum this spring.
00:00:17The excitement has reached fever pitch.
00:00:20It's time for Love Your Weekend, isn't it?
00:00:23Yeah.
00:00:30Love Your Weekend
00:00:59Mist curls over the countryside
00:01:02and crisp leaves swirl at our feet
00:01:05and eerie autumnal chill bites through the air.
00:01:09On this crisp Sunday morning,
00:01:11we welcome a hint of Halloween
00:01:13with the promise of treats, tales
00:01:15and more than a sprinkling of seasonal magic.
00:01:18Just another perfect morning here at Love Your Weekend.
00:01:22Coming up, we loved her in New Tricks
00:01:24and laughed with her in the comedy series
00:01:27At Home With The Braithwaite.
00:01:28Actress Amanda Redman on her brand-new crime drama
00:01:32Murder Before Even song.
00:01:35And back with more animals, more laughs, more mistakes,
00:01:39this story really has only just begun for Kelvin and Liz Fletcher
00:01:42as they continue their farming adventures.
00:01:45With the latest school report on Titch, our guide dog in training.
00:01:50And word is, he's doing rather well.
00:01:53And we're continuing our series,
00:01:55celebrating the young farmers of Great Britain.
00:01:58Today, we're heading Sussex Way
00:02:01to meet 19-year-old agricultural student Coco Jallo.
00:02:05And she's armed with a kneeler and a dipper.
00:02:07It can only mean one thing.
00:02:09It's bulb planting season.
00:02:11Camilla Bassett-Smith returns with a masterclass
00:02:14to guarantee colour in your borders in spring.
00:02:17But first, the barn is alive and kicking
00:02:25with the sound of merry chatter.
00:02:27Or at least it will be.
00:02:28Welcome, Amanda Redman and Kelvin and Liz Fletcher.
00:02:32Good to see you.
00:02:33Well, I am very concerned, though, Kelvin and Liz,
00:02:35because, farmers, the clocks went back last night.
00:02:39Does that affect the animals at all,
00:02:41or just your fact that you get extra to lie in when they go back?
00:02:44I think it's twofold, isn't it?
00:02:45As farmers, we think we get an extra hour's work.
00:02:47Yeah.
00:02:49And then as parents, maybe we could get a lie in.
00:02:52But then as farmers, you're not going to get a lie in.
00:02:53So, I don't know.
00:02:54No, that's true.
00:02:55So, actually, no difference at all.
00:02:56No difference at all.
00:02:57No, no, no.
00:02:58Amanda, not to you.
00:02:59I mean, we always think that, you know,
00:03:01spring forward, fall back.
00:03:03In spring, you lose an hour, Steve.
00:03:05Yes.
00:03:05You do kind of get that lie in.
00:03:06And when the Sunday, following the Saturday,
00:03:08extra lie in on the Sunday morning,
00:03:10traditionally the actor's day of rest, really, Sunday.
00:03:13Yes, it is.
00:03:14So, at the beginning of the year, it's not great
00:03:16because you do lose that hour.
00:03:18And then it's great this time of year.
00:03:20And from your point of view on a Sunday, then,
00:03:22I mean, Sunday's special in the Redmond house.
00:03:25So, what do you do?
00:03:25How's your Sunday?
00:03:26How's your typical Sunday?
00:03:27Breakfast in bed cooked by my husband.
00:03:29Oh.
00:03:30Followed by...
00:03:30Kelvin, take notes.
00:03:35Followed by Sunday roast cooked by my husband.
00:03:38Kelvin.
00:03:38I think I've run that.
00:03:42Well, you see, he's also grown it as well, you know,
00:03:45depending on what you eat, arable or livestock.
00:03:49What?
00:03:50So, this sounds like a fantastic Sunday.
00:03:51Then what's for the afternoon?
00:03:52Me, it is.
00:03:53Yeah, yeah.
00:03:55Yeah, what about the afternoon?
00:03:56And then normally fall asleep in front of the teddy.
00:03:59It doesn't make you afternoon tea as well, then.
00:04:02God, what a cheapskate.
00:04:04Laser stone.
00:04:05So, special days.
00:04:06I mean, on the farm, though, every day is the same.
00:04:09I mean, can you mark a Sunday, as it were,
00:04:12on the farming calendar as being a bit special,
00:04:15a bit different?
00:04:15I think, yeah, every day is, you know,
00:04:18there's jobs to do every day.
00:04:19I think Sunday is an important day,
00:04:21a day of the week.
00:04:22You know, it's a day of rest.
00:04:24We often go to church on a Sunday,
00:04:25so we start the day as it should be.
00:04:27And then, yeah, the afternoon is spent mostly
00:04:29just running after the kids.
00:04:30And then making sure the cows are all right,
00:04:32the sheep are all right.
00:04:33I think it's always weather dependent.
00:04:34If you've got a good sunny day on a Sunday,
00:04:36regardless of what time of year,
00:04:38I think then you're more inclined to indulge
00:04:40and relax a little bit.
00:04:41Now, the thing is, I mean,
00:04:42you have to keep fit to be on the farm.
00:04:44But farming itself keeps you fit.
00:04:47But I gather that you now have a new pastime
00:04:50which keeps you fit, which might surprise people.
00:04:54A little bit.
00:04:54I'm still quite new to this, yeah,
00:04:58jujitsu wrestling, catch wrestling.
00:05:00But, yeah.
00:05:01With Liz?
00:05:02With Liz.
00:05:02Well, I got my training from Liz, actually.
00:05:05She's got me.
00:05:06Well, learning to duck a hand.
00:05:07Well, exactly.
00:05:08She's wrestled me a few times,
00:05:10so I've managed to kind of now be able to defend myself.
00:05:12But, no, rightly so, you know,
00:05:13wrestling and farming can be a bit of a wrestle
00:05:16at times with the animals, you know.
00:05:18Well, yeah, well, you've got to catch sheep.
00:05:19You've literally got to, you know,
00:05:20jump on them as they're running out,
00:05:22so you are wrestling the sheep.
00:05:23Good of you to get in there and help him out
00:05:25because he was digging a heck of a hole.
00:05:27Yeah, help him out, Alan.
00:05:29Do you want us to show you some moves?
00:05:31Let's get you up and he'll show you how to get you in a headlong.
00:05:33My days of jujitsu are long gone.
00:05:36Funny enough, I missed them at the time.
00:05:38I don't recall them at all.
00:05:39Amanda, from an actor's point of view,
00:05:41you do need to keep fit.
00:05:43You do need to try.
00:05:43I mean, do you have any regime that you use to keep fit?
00:05:46Walking, really.
00:05:47Really?
00:05:48Yeah, that's all right.
00:05:48And if I can't be on the treadmill
00:05:50or if I can't go for long walks on set,
00:05:53I will walk round and round and round
00:05:55wherever we happen to be filming.
00:05:57And also, it just means I don't fall asleep as much,
00:06:00which is good because you know how tiring it can get
00:06:02when you're filming.
00:06:03Oh, I do.
00:06:04Hanging around doing nothing.
00:06:05Well, the problem is lunch as well, isn't it?
00:06:07Yes.
00:06:07You're filming in the morning
00:06:08and you have a lunch break,
00:06:08and then you do the afternoon
00:06:09and he's kind of,
00:06:10I shouldn't have had that lunch.
00:06:12Liz, in between all this,
00:06:14these two, the jujitsu and this walking,
00:06:16do you just pick up the pieces
00:06:17or you've got something of your own life
00:06:19on that farm as well, I presume.
00:06:21Well, looking after four children,
00:06:22that's your life, I suppose.
00:06:24Yeah, I mean, yeah,
00:06:25looking after children is 24-7,
00:06:27but for me,
00:06:28my love is very much the interiors
00:06:30and the diversifying of the farm.
00:06:32So that's when I,
00:06:33if on a Sunday,
00:06:34if I do ever get a chance
00:06:35to sit down with a cup of tea,
00:06:36my exercising is reading a magazine,
00:06:39an interior magazine,
00:06:41sat with a cup of tea,
00:06:42and then I'll probably get about
00:06:43four or five minutes out of it
00:06:45before someone shouts mum
00:06:46and then it's done.
00:06:47So farmhouses are traditionally,
00:06:50and farmers won't mind me saying so,
00:06:52but they're very much,
00:06:53you know,
00:06:53you go into the kitchen,
00:06:54it's very much working
00:06:55and there's a sort of room for best
00:06:57where you go
00:06:58when you've got folk coming round,
00:07:00the posh room,
00:07:00whatever you want to call it.
00:07:01So interior design,
00:07:03does that mean,
00:07:04you know,
00:07:04yours is actually not necessarily
00:07:05your typical farmhouse?
00:07:07Yeah,
00:07:07our first big project
00:07:08was renovating our farmhouse cottage
00:07:10and that's why
00:07:11I've always loved design,
00:07:12I've always loved interior,
00:07:14decorating,
00:07:14and I've learnt why farmhouses
00:07:16have a boot room
00:07:17because that's where all the mess is
00:07:19and then you can have
00:07:20a slightly nicer,
00:07:21nicer front room.
00:07:22We've got four children
00:07:23so the mess is just
00:07:24throughout the house,
00:07:24but yeah,
00:07:25that's why you have a boot room
00:07:26because that's where the mess is left.
00:07:27And your eldest is how old now?
00:07:29Marnie's nine now.
00:07:31Gosh,
00:07:31and then they go down from there.
00:07:32And then six
00:07:33and the twins are three,
00:07:34yeah.
00:07:35Wow.
00:07:36So full on,
00:07:36so you can imagine
00:07:37just trying to find someone
00:07:38a pair of shoes
00:07:39that match each other
00:07:40is the trouble,
00:07:42but yeah,
00:07:42there's a lot of shoes,
00:07:43a lot of cobs flung on the floor
00:07:45and Kelvin's very tidy
00:07:46and I'm the opposite
00:07:47so in the in-between
00:07:48we find the balance.
00:07:52Gosh,
00:07:52but what you did do
00:07:54is dancing quite well
00:07:55before you did your jiu-jitsu.
00:07:57Amanda,
00:07:58have you ever been tempted
00:07:59by Strictly
00:07:59or have they ever attempted
00:08:01to get you on?
00:08:02I have been asked
00:08:02but seriously,
00:08:04they would regret it
00:08:04because I am so bad.
00:08:07I'm useless.
00:08:08No,
00:08:08but it is a comedy programme.
00:08:10Yes.
00:08:11You know,
00:08:11I mean,
00:08:12it's fair.
00:08:12Quite true.
00:08:13I couldn't put myself
00:08:14through the humiliation
00:08:15of it
00:08:15on a weekly basis.
00:08:17I have two left feet
00:08:18and no coordination.
00:08:19Useless.
00:08:21When you went on,
00:08:22Kelvin,
00:08:23how confident were you?
00:08:25I think confidence is,
00:08:27I was confident in myself
00:08:28to give everything I could
00:08:30and to learn
00:08:31and I knew full well
00:08:32how challenging it would be
00:08:34because,
00:08:35you know,
00:08:35maybe like Amanda,
00:08:35I wasn't,
00:08:36I didn't consider myself
00:08:37a good dancer as such.
00:08:38I felt like I had a little bit
00:08:39of natural rhythm
00:08:39but that was admittedly
00:08:40after a few beers
00:08:42at a wedding maybe.
00:08:42It's different
00:08:43when you've got a live studio
00:08:44audience in front of millions
00:08:45at home
00:08:45and we'd watch the show
00:08:46as fans like many do
00:08:47and so there's a lot
00:08:49of nerves there
00:08:49but I think like any
00:08:50of those shows,
00:08:51you've got to go in
00:08:51and just really back yourself
00:08:52and not to win as such,
00:08:54that's out of your control,
00:08:55just do the best,
00:08:56give a good account of yourself
00:08:57and give everything you can.
00:08:58the only person
00:08:59you're competing with
00:08:59is yourself,
00:09:00isn't it?
00:09:00Exactly that,
00:09:01exactly and you know,
00:09:03it was a great experience
00:09:04but very,
00:09:05very challenging,
00:09:06very,
00:09:06very hard,
00:09:06probably one of the hardest
00:09:07things I've done
00:09:08in many ways,
00:09:09you know,
00:09:10every week you're learning
00:09:10a new discipline
00:09:11and there's so much
00:09:13to take on.
00:09:13A bit like farming.
00:09:15It's a little bit like farming
00:09:16but you know,
00:09:17very rarely do you feel
00:09:18like you're actually dancing,
00:09:19you're thinking of the steps
00:09:20and the moves
00:09:20and what's Craig going to say
00:09:21about my hand
00:09:22and all these things
00:09:23but it was a great,
00:09:24great experience
00:09:25and yeah,
00:09:25one that I'll always
00:09:27look back on fondly.
00:09:28Well,
00:09:28we've got all the Halloween
00:09:29stuff here,
00:09:30the pumpkins and whatnot,
00:09:30here's you,
00:09:31doing your Halloween tango.
00:09:33So you're a tough guy
00:09:35Like a little hot guy
00:09:37Just can't get a new guy
00:09:39Just always a puffed guy
00:09:40I'm the bad type
00:09:42Make your mom a sad type
00:09:44Make your girl from that type
00:09:46I suggest you're dead type
00:09:48I'm the bad guy
00:09:51Yeah
00:09:52There were moves there for which you could get a grant
00:10:14But they really were
00:10:16But they really were
00:10:16So precise with the tango there
00:10:19You could do that Amanda,
00:10:20come on
00:10:21God
00:10:21That was extraordinary
00:10:23He makes it look easy
00:10:24I don't know how you did that
00:10:25Alan, would you be a good dancer?
00:10:27Well, no,
00:10:28my wife used to teach it,
00:10:29you see,
00:10:29so I'm not allowed
00:10:30to go on Strictly
00:10:32because she says
00:10:33my knees won't take the lifts
00:10:35Gardner's knees
00:10:38are famous
00:10:39for having been overused over the years
00:10:42I would love to do
00:10:44the white tie and tails
00:10:45in a really good, elegant waltz
00:10:47but I keep waiting
00:10:48as a classical fan
00:10:50I keep waiting for Strictly
00:10:51to do the polka and the minuet
00:10:52and they never do
00:10:54You know,
00:10:54the American smooth
00:10:55and the tango
00:10:56but about the sedate old
00:10:58I could do the sedate old ones
00:11:00that were quite slow
00:11:01I could see you doing the samba
00:11:03Would you be good at the samba?
00:11:05Look, see what you can do with your lips
00:11:07Don't imagine I do with mine
00:11:08Much more
00:11:10but not dancing
00:11:11from Amanda, Kelvin and Liz
00:11:12later on
00:11:13Now help yourself
00:11:14Now you're not having to dance anymore
00:11:16You can help yourself
00:11:16to all our glorious selection
00:11:18of goodies here
00:11:18And with Halloween on the horizon
00:11:20we won of Andy Clark's
00:11:22sweet poison apple cider mimosas
00:11:24to kick things off
00:11:25Look at that
00:11:25Dave, have a sip of this
00:11:27Go on
00:11:27Still to come
00:11:28With the champagne on standby
00:11:30as we meet the Shetland pony
00:11:31set to become a new mum
00:11:33and putting the horticulture

00:11:38guaranteed
00:11:39to give guests a fright
00:11:41in a caring sort of way
00:11:42and that's before she accosted them
00:11:44with her Kate Bush impression
00:11:45I'll be back with Camilla
00:11:47and her petrifying planters
00:11:49right after a sip of this
00:11:51Stuck in, chaps
00:11:52Cheers
00:11:52Cheers
00:11:53As the great Oscar Wilde famously said
00:12:10anybody can be good in the country
00:12:12there are no temptations there
00:12:14Well, I beg to differ Oscar
00:12:17He clearly hasn't seen what's on today's show
00:12:19coming up
00:12:20he played a farmer
00:12:21and now he is one

00:12:26their latest adventures
00:12:27and mishaps
00:12:28on their 120 acre farm
00:12:30in the Peak District
00:12:31lovely part of the country
00:12:33and thought you knew your way
00:12:34around the gin bar
00:12:36time to think again
00:12:37Andy Clark
00:12:38takes us back to basics
00:12:40with his guide
00:12:41to the complexity
00:12:42of our nation's favourite spirit
00:12:45in today's best of British
00:12:47Now Halloween may be just a days away from now
00:12:51but there's still time to get creative
00:12:52with your seasonal decor
00:12:54with autumn being the season of abundance
00:12:57there's plenty of natural material around
00:12:59that you can use to create a spooky atmosphere
00:13:01at your Halloween party
00:13:03starting at the front door
00:13:05here to show us how
00:13:06welcome horticulturist
00:13:08Camilla Bassett-Smith
00:13:09and an array of pumpkins and conkers
00:13:11and this, that and the other
00:13:13Indeed, I look like a pumpkin myself
00:13:14I didn't wish to say that
00:13:16you could say that
00:13:17I couldn't possibly comment
00:13:18don't, project lender
00:13:19Oh, that's very kind
00:13:20thank you
00:13:20so we thought we'd get into
00:13:22the spirit of things
00:13:23boom, boom, spirit
00:13:23oh, yes, right
00:13:24and this one is
00:13:26I'm going to call this
00:13:26my devil planter
00:13:27starting off with the centrepiece
00:13:29which is Pinus little Dracula
00:13:30and it's a great
00:13:33slow growing pine
00:13:34and isn't it just a beauty
00:13:35so it's like a sort of
00:13:36like a longer
00:13:37needled version
00:13:38of Pinus mugo
00:13:39that little one
00:13:40that they use on rock gardens
00:13:41yes, it kind of goes upwards
00:13:42but never
00:13:42never taller than
00:13:43perhaps one and a half metres
00:13:45so really good for pots
00:13:46at the back
00:13:47we've got blood grass
00:13:48yes, with those leaves
00:13:50that
00:13:51tinge red
00:13:52wonderfully tinge red
00:13:53at the end
00:13:53now, of course
00:13:54it dies back over winter
00:13:55but at this time of year
00:13:56you've still got a little bit
00:13:57of life in it yet
00:13:58and quite appropriate
00:14:00for such a planter
00:14:01and then I thought
00:14:02the black grass
00:14:03looked a bit like a spider
00:14:04with spider's legs
00:14:06so the Ophiopogon
00:14:07you've got such a vivid imagination
00:14:08I do
00:14:09but you're right
00:14:09it does
00:14:10Ophiopogon
00:14:11and then with that
00:14:12the blood red
00:14:13cyclamen
00:14:14and the panzers
00:14:15and the cyclamen
00:14:15giving off quite a nice scent
00:14:16as well
00:14:17don't they
00:14:17it's like getting the frost
00:14:18of course
00:14:19these cyclamen
00:14:19I suppose the tiny weeny ones
00:14:21which are hardy
00:14:21these are a bit frost tender
00:14:23so if they're nearer the house wall
00:14:24they're a bit more sheltered
00:14:25keep it by your front door
00:14:26and yes, against the wall
00:14:27you should be alright
00:14:28at the moment
00:14:29and you've got little cauldron
00:14:30I have
00:14:30now I thought
00:14:31this heuchera here
00:14:32I love heucheras
00:14:33because they just
00:14:34they just do the job
00:14:35don't they
00:14:35they're really great little plants
00:14:36perhaps underestimated a bit
00:14:38although I think we're beginning
00:14:39to appreciate them
00:14:39more than we've once did
00:14:40well we are
00:14:41there are hundreds of different varieties
00:14:42now and you've got a job
00:14:43sometimes separating
00:14:44one from another
00:14:44they're bred a lot in Oregon
00:14:46I think in the States
00:14:47and there's hundreds
00:14:48of different colour forms
00:14:49there are
00:14:49so whether you like
00:14:50kind of really lime greens
00:14:52or frosted pinks
00:14:53or this really jet black one
00:14:55which is black forest gato
00:14:56in a cauldron
00:14:57which I thought looked quite fun
00:14:59just on the step
00:14:59but we're going to do
00:15:00a little bit of work here
00:15:01and create
00:15:02a pumpkin plant
00:15:04this is my pumpkin pot
00:15:05and the important thing
00:15:06is to put it where
00:15:07it's going to be
00:15:07before you start
00:15:08planting it up
00:15:09otherwise you'll get
00:15:10a collody and hernia bay
00:15:11yes and no one wants that
00:15:12no
00:15:13so for this one
00:15:14I've popped a chrysanthemum
00:15:15in the back here
00:15:16underestimated plant
00:15:18again at this time of year
00:15:19for these autumnal colours
00:15:20they are glorious
00:15:21aren't they
00:15:21they are
00:15:22and this corkscrew rush
00:15:24now often you can see this
00:15:25at the edge of a pond
00:15:27they do quite well
00:15:28as a marginal
00:15:28but also in a planter
00:15:30I thought looked quite creepy
00:15:32actually
00:15:32looked like little witches
00:15:34witches ones
00:15:35with that you've got
00:15:35orange pansies
00:15:37orange and blood pansies
00:15:38yes
00:15:38shall I put that one
00:15:39in this side for you
00:15:40while you get a little
00:15:41capsicum out too
00:15:42I'll get a little
00:15:42ornamental capsicum
00:15:43again in the pumpkin orange
00:15:46it's going to pop in there
00:15:47and we've got these
00:15:49gorgeous pansies
00:15:50and pansies
00:15:50so many different colours
00:15:52you can get
00:15:52and they're just
00:15:53so glorious aren't they
00:15:55with those beautiful faces
00:15:56I'm going to tell you
00:15:56to task about this though
00:15:57I thought you might
00:15:58this is an absolute
00:16:00horticultural aberration
00:16:02I thought that
00:16:03when I picked it up
00:16:03this is a coluna
00:16:05this is a kind of heather
00:16:06or ling
00:16:06and it has been dyed orange
00:16:09it's really white
00:16:09and this is a travesty
00:16:10ladies and gentlemen
00:16:11an absolute travesty
00:16:13you'll get them
00:16:14in all sorts of
00:16:14fluorescent colours
00:16:15and it's dreadful
00:16:16what they can do to botany
00:16:17however
00:16:18at this time of year
00:16:19in your planter
00:16:20for Halloween
00:16:21but actually in a pumpkin
00:16:23I thought carved out
00:16:24for a children's party
00:16:25and they are everywhere
00:16:26aren't they
00:16:27you're right grudgingly
00:16:28I know
00:16:28I did think
00:16:29can I really put one of these
00:16:30in front of Alan Titchmarsh
00:16:31but I have
00:16:31and I think I got away with it
00:16:32no you didn't want me
00:16:33to be nice about it
00:16:34I've said my piece
00:16:36you like them
00:16:37I have them
00:16:37at least it's a living plant
00:16:38that's true
00:16:39any yeah
00:16:40just
00:16:40thanks Kimmel
00:16:42now you'll be back later
00:16:43I will indeed
00:16:44I'm going to be talking bulbs
00:16:46my favourite time of year
00:16:47really for planting
00:16:48spring flowering bulbs
00:16:49so I'm going to click
00:16:50my boots together
00:16:51and you'll find me
00:16:52in a bulb border
00:16:52ok see you there
00:16:53see you there
00:16:54here in the garden
00:17:00there's an air of excitement
00:17:02today
00:17:02as we have some
00:17:03rather special
00:17:04Shetland ponies
00:17:05known for their
00:17:06gentle and friendly
00:17:07temperament
00:17:08well
00:17:09sometimes
00:17:10hopefully today's
00:17:11one of them
00:17:11they're hardy
00:17:12and resilient
00:17:13intelligent
00:17:14and allegedly
00:17:15easy to train
00:17:17small wonder
00:17:18they make such good
00:17:19companion animals
00:17:20even more exciting
00:17:21is news today
00:17:22that one of them here
00:17:23is an expectant mum
00:17:25here to share more
00:17:26about the challenges
00:17:27and rewards
00:17:28of breeding
00:17:29Shetland ponies
00:17:30owner Jacqueline Percy
00:17:31and husband Clifford
00:17:33welcome to you both
00:17:34now Jacqueline
00:17:34how did you get started
00:17:36and I mean what makes you
00:17:37want to breed Shetland ponies
00:17:38have you done it for a long time
00:17:39we've done it for about 30 years
00:17:41and we just sort of
00:17:42it was fate really
00:17:43after having a busy life
00:17:45breaking racehorses
00:17:46we had young children
00:17:47and hence
00:17:48the Shetlands came along
00:17:49so where did you actually
00:17:50go to Shetland
00:17:51to encounter them
00:17:52we did
00:17:52we decided that
00:17:54we really needed to know
00:17:54what Shetland pony
00:17:55was all about
00:17:56so we took a trip
00:17:57up to the Shetland islands
00:17:58and
00:17:59we
00:18:01it coincided with the sales
00:18:03of course
00:18:04as it does
00:18:05and we bought
00:18:06Ragdoll here
00:18:08we bought her mother
00:18:08yeah
00:18:09so she's a direct
00:18:10descendant
00:18:11from the Shetland islands
00:18:12tell us about them
00:18:13as a race
00:18:13because people are confused
00:18:14about Shetland ponies
00:18:15Jacqueline
00:18:15they are naturally
00:18:17small horses
00:18:18presumably
00:18:19bred that way
00:18:20because of the environment
00:18:21up there
00:18:21very exposed
00:18:22very windy
00:18:23yes
00:18:23I mean they would have been
00:18:24originally used
00:18:25in the pits
00:18:26but they would be
00:18:27slightly bigger than these
00:18:28they would have been
00:18:28the 42 inch
00:18:29standard Shetlands
00:18:30so what is the
00:18:31the miniature Shetlands
00:18:31is what
00:18:3234 inches
00:18:33is the maximum height
00:18:34to the withers
00:18:35yes to this point here
00:18:36yeah
00:18:36so these are both
00:18:37miniature Shetlands
00:18:38now tell us these two
00:18:40their names and their ages
00:18:41this is Ragdoll
00:18:42and she's 10 years old
00:18:44she hasn't had a foal
00:18:45and this is Mystique
00:18:46who's 16 years old
00:18:47and had 7 foals
00:18:49now Mystique is pregnant
00:18:51again now
00:18:51yes she is
00:18:52now this astonishes me
00:18:53that 16
00:18:53which is you know
00:18:54getting on in that
00:18:56to have roles
00:18:56how long can they
00:18:57keep foaling then
00:18:58it depends on their actual
00:19:00health you know
00:19:01we would know
00:19:02she's had a year off
00:19:03this year
00:19:03and she's been back
00:19:04in the show ring
00:19:05and been champion
00:19:07and supreme champion
00:19:08this year
00:19:09even with her foal
00:19:10inside
00:19:10and so next year
00:19:12she'll have a year off
00:19:13with her baby
00:19:14I think it's time
00:19:15we just checked
00:19:16your bill of health
00:19:18really Mystique
00:19:19we're going to call in
00:19:20Imogen
00:19:20I'm going to come
00:19:21around the back here
00:19:22Imogen Burrows
00:19:23who's our vet
00:19:24is this a frequent thing
00:19:31you do with
00:19:31when the horses
00:19:32are in foal
00:19:33you'll take the ultrasound
00:19:34out and see
00:19:35everything's working
00:19:36according to plan
00:19:37yeah so obviously
00:19:37we're working with stud farms
00:19:39and things like that
00:19:39it's really quite handy
00:19:40in order to be able
00:19:41to check in regularly
00:19:42and that depends on
00:19:43whether she's had
00:19:45previous problems
00:19:45or whether she's a maiden mare
00:19:47so first time breeder
00:19:48or an experienced brood mare
00:19:49like this lady here
00:19:50and usually we do
00:19:52all those scans
00:19:53really front loaded
00:19:53so in the first month
00:19:54to six weeks
00:19:55of their pregnancy
00:19:56and then often
00:19:57nothing too invasive
00:19:59and then we start
00:20:00scanning through the abdomen
00:20:01externally if we're concerned
00:20:03if the owner wants
00:20:03to track that pregnancy
00:20:05so how far gone is Mystique
00:20:07she's
00:20:07so at the moment
00:20:08I believe she was bred
00:20:09in May
00:20:09yes so she's about
00:20:10four and a half months
00:20:11right
00:20:11yeah
00:20:12so it's quite a tricky phase
00:20:14to do this
00:20:15because the baby
00:20:16drops forward
00:20:17over the pelvis
00:20:17into the abdomen
00:20:18sinks down lower
00:20:19and of course
00:20:20we've got quite a big belly
00:20:21on all of our patients
00:20:23and of course the bowels
00:20:30can be filled with food
00:20:31get right in the way
00:20:32of the pregnancy
00:20:33so hopefully today
00:20:34fingers crossed
00:20:34you've given yourself
00:20:34a lot of excuses
00:20:35there
00:20:36I have
00:20:36let's go on then
00:20:39do your stuff
00:20:39right
00:20:40let's just see
00:20:41what we've got here
00:20:42now I'm just
00:20:43trying to
00:20:44you're very patient
00:20:44Mystique
00:20:45well done
00:20:45see if we can
00:20:46get this a little bit
00:20:48more in focus
00:20:50and find our
00:20:52what have we got
00:20:53baby
00:20:54so we have actually
00:20:56got a pregnancy here
00:20:57yeah
00:20:57and I'm not moving
00:20:59Mystique is not moving
00:21:00which means our baby
00:21:02is moving
00:21:04so we have
00:21:05been able to
00:21:07have some lovely
00:21:08clear shots
00:21:09and this is
00:21:10if it's moving
00:21:11it's a good sign
00:21:11absolutely
00:21:12we do want to see
00:21:13a reasonable
00:21:14steady and consistent
00:21:15degree of movement
00:21:16so
00:21:17are you used to
00:21:18dealing with
00:21:18horses of this age
00:21:20that surprised me
00:21:20you see
00:21:21that 16 going on 17
00:21:23if you pardon
00:21:24the sound of music
00:21:25reference
00:21:25of course
00:21:26so this up here
00:21:28is our pregnancy
00:21:29yeah
00:21:29some
00:21:30a screenshot here
00:21:31with the colour
00:21:32from the heart
00:21:33so you can actually
00:21:33see the colour
00:21:34shows up when the
00:21:35heart is pumping
00:21:36and we can actually
00:21:37see that the
00:21:38the bright blue
00:21:39is where that
00:21:40blood is pumping
00:21:41through the heart
00:21:42which shows that
00:21:42obviously everything
00:21:43is going well
00:21:44we're alive and well
00:21:45good so four months
00:21:46in how long is
00:21:47gestation
00:21:47how long
00:21:48342 days
00:21:50can you be more
00:21:51precise
00:21:51yes
00:21:52342.5
00:21:54roughly 11 months
00:21:56yes
00:21:56so
00:21:57then shetlands do
00:21:58tend to have a mind
00:21:59of their own
00:21:59they fall when they
00:22:00want to fall
00:22:01they've been a month
00:22:02early or a month
00:22:03late sometimes
00:22:04some mares will go up
00:22:05to 12 months
00:22:06slightly over
00:22:07some will actually
00:22:08come out to 10
00:22:09and a half months
00:22:10so it can be very
00:22:11variable and it's
00:22:12quite exhausting
00:22:12it's very exhausting
00:22:14I have to stay up
00:22:15all night
00:22:15watching a camera
00:22:17in my bed
00:22:18generally speaking
00:22:19can they fall on
00:22:20their own without
00:22:20any intervention
00:22:21they can
00:22:22but Imogen would agree
00:22:24we've scaled these
00:22:25down to this size
00:22:26so any animal
00:22:28can have a problem
00:22:28but because he's a
00:22:29smaller it's a bigger
00:22:30problem because

00:25:19there is a calf in there
00:25:22yes
00:25:24there's a baby in there
00:25:26I'm glad I'm not a cow
00:25:27I mean it is the Fletcher's family farm
00:25:31there's more family than farm there
00:25:32it seems to me
00:25:33what a way for them to grow up Liz
00:25:36I mean they absolutely love it clearly
00:25:38oh they are outdoor children
00:25:40definitely
00:25:41we can't get
00:25:41whether you can get your shoes
00:25:42you can't get your shoes on quick enough

00:25:53that he's got on his head
00:25:54and he'll just find
00:25:55something out of anything
00:25:56and they just make us laugh
00:25:58all day
00:25:59it's so funny watching them
00:26:00and it's been four years now Kelvin
00:26:03I mean
00:26:03you probably feel as if
00:26:04you've been doing it
00:26:05for a lifetime
00:26:06don't you
00:26:06four seasons
00:26:08four years of seasons on a farm
00:26:10it's a long time
00:26:12your learning curve
00:26:13must have been dramatic
00:26:14it's been steep
00:26:15and dramatic
00:26:16and it's funny
00:26:17even watching the little clips like that
00:26:19it's
00:26:19I almost feel so privileged
00:26:21because we're capturing
00:26:22such important years
00:26:24and yes it's through the eyes
00:26:26of a documentary
00:26:26but for us
00:26:27it's our life
00:26:28it's what we're living
00:26:28and you look back
00:26:29with those four years
00:26:30and I remember
00:26:30when we first moved
00:26:31we didn't have a clue
00:26:32you could write on the back
00:26:33what we knew about farming
00:26:35about rural living
00:26:36about the countryside
00:26:37and you know
00:26:38we were kind of just blissfully unaware
00:26:39and what's grown now
00:26:41is just an absolute
00:26:41we can't imagine a life
00:26:44without it
00:26:45you know
00:26:45we've absolutely fallen in love
00:26:47with you know
00:26:47hook, line and sinker
00:26:48with the whole
00:26:49everything that
00:26:50living in the country brings
00:26:51with agriculture
00:26:52with farming
00:26:52with the community
00:26:53and the children
00:26:54and just even
00:26:55being sat on these straw bales
00:26:56that you know
00:26:57I feel at home
00:26:57so yeah
00:26:58it's been an amazing four years
00:26:59you've brought your three piece with it
00:27:00didn't you
00:27:00you know
00:27:01you're in a beautiful part of the world
00:27:03the Peak District
00:27:04I mean I often think
00:27:05I said to my wife
00:27:05we were up there a couple of weeks ago
00:27:07in the Derbyshire Dales
00:27:08and I said to my wife
00:27:09I know
00:27:10I know this is a terrible thing
00:27:11for a Yorkshire Dalesman
00:27:13to admit
00:27:14but
00:27:14this is actually
00:27:15as beautiful as Yorkshire
00:27:16it's absolutely
00:27:17the Derbyshire Dales
00:27:18I love
00:27:19nearly as much
00:27:21as I love Yorkshire
00:27:21but it's such a glorious place
00:27:23to do it
00:27:23everywhere you look up there
00:27:25rolling hills
00:27:26greenery
00:27:26it's a place
00:27:28that's lovely to live in
00:27:29regardless of whether
00:27:30you're a farmer
00:27:30or not
00:27:31it is
00:27:31and you're so right
00:27:32people often forget about it
00:27:33they either go down south
00:27:35or go very up north
00:27:36but the Peak District
00:27:37is stunning
00:27:38there's so many stunning views
00:27:40and the walks
00:27:41that you can do
00:27:42and we're still finding
00:27:43you know
00:27:44we have lived there for years
00:27:45but we're still finding
00:27:46beautiful little places
00:27:47that we didn't know existed
00:27:49and everything
00:27:50just every corner
00:27:51just gives you something else
00:27:52and you just think
00:27:52wow
00:27:53we do feel so lucky
00:27:54to live there
00:27:55let's go through
00:27:56what livestock you've got now
00:27:57you've got
00:27:58we've just seen there
00:27:58you've got cattle
00:27:59you've got sheep
00:28:00children
00:28:01yeah they're a pretty big part of it
00:28:04you may only have four
00:28:06and you've got more cows
00:28:07and more sheep
00:28:07but
00:28:08yeah we're just
00:28:08we're not running any pigs
00:28:10currently
00:28:11we had quite a few pigs last year
00:28:13which we had
00:28:13an amazing time with
00:28:15but as you'll see in the series
00:28:17you know
00:28:17there's been a lot going on this year
00:28:18so
00:28:19our focus has just been on
00:28:20establishing our herd
00:28:21we're Lincoln Reds
00:28:22the native breed
00:28:23fantastic
00:28:23we go back to Chesh
00:28:25the Royal Cheshire show again
00:28:26and show there
00:28:27so
00:28:27and our sheep of
00:28:28the Old Faithfuls there
00:28:30I think Marnie started her own flock
00:28:31with some Jacobs
00:28:32so we're keeping that native system going
00:28:34it's so nice to have the odd day out
00:28:36but we are always desperate to get that
00:28:37today's a day off
00:28:38today's a day off
00:28:39today's a day
00:28:40yeah we're enjoying today
00:28:41but it is
00:28:43you're always just trying to like get back
00:28:44because there's just jobs on your mind
00:28:45and I'll think about the cows
00:28:46and I'll think about the sheep
00:28:48and I'll be thinking
00:28:48I need to get back
00:28:49and just check they're all right
00:28:50the children are at the stage at the moment
00:28:52where they're not quite so much help
00:28:54as a hindrance
00:28:56I mean they're there all the time
00:28:57but they're not capable really yet
00:28:59the elder one's probably starting to get the stage
00:29:01where he'd round some sheep up a bit
00:29:02but there are a handful
00:29:04all of them at the moment
00:29:05they are
00:29:05I think we've said that Marnie
00:29:07you know
00:29:07the eldest
00:29:08the shepherdess
00:29:09she is a genuine help
00:29:11you know
00:29:11certainly with her getting the sheep in
00:29:12and her enthusiasm
00:29:13and eagerness to learn
00:29:14she's got her own flock of Jacobs already
00:29:16Milo is still ever the adventurer
00:29:19once he's very curious
00:29:20which is great
00:29:21and he wants to explore
00:29:22and a stick is sometimes
00:29:23far more interesting
00:29:24than what we're doing with a sheep
00:29:26so he's off with that
00:29:27so he's more of a hindrance
00:29:29but the twins we say
00:29:30are just at the minute
00:29:31a good liability
00:29:32but you have to have eyes on
00:29:34because you know
00:29:35farms can be a dangerous place
00:29:36and as parents
00:29:37you naturally want to make sure
00:29:38they're all right
00:29:39but as well
00:29:40allow them to explore
00:29:41and Matthias especially
00:29:42is
00:29:42we keep saying it
00:29:44I feel like a proper farmer now
00:29:45but if anybody's going to carry it on
00:29:47it's definitely going to be him
00:29:48because he's obsessed with animals
00:29:49and you can just see
00:29:51he gazes at the
00:29:52the way he looks at the cows
00:29:54feels like the way I look at the cows
00:29:55and I can just see it in him
00:29:57whether it's the tractors
00:29:58or the cows
00:29:58but he's just
00:29:59if he's going to be a farmer
00:30:00amongst all four of them
00:30:01it's definitely going to be him
00:30:02do you remember him
00:30:03when he was an actor Liz?
00:30:04I don't remember
00:30:05there was somebody dead like him
00:30:08in Emmerdale
00:30:08if it weren't him
00:30:09he knows his brother
00:30:10I'm surprised he's not
00:30:11demanded make-up
00:30:12you know
00:30:13let's have a look at Marnie
00:30:15in a sheet
00:30:16because he has a child
00:30:17who's taken to farming
00:30:18like nobody's business
00:30:20this is my first Jacob lamb
00:30:24of probably
00:30:25yeah the year
00:30:26I think it's a good strong lamb
00:30:29that lamb's probably
00:30:30my favourite lamb
00:30:31that I've actually
00:30:33done today
00:30:35but I've
00:30:35I've sticked my hand
00:30:36up a lot of bums
00:30:37and
00:30:38this is probably
00:30:39the main one
00:30:40how are you up Marnie?
00:30:43alright
00:30:43I'm looking at your Jacob
00:30:45yeah
00:30:46look at this
00:30:48it's cute
00:30:49look at this
00:30:50you see it's little horns
00:30:51I know
00:30:52well that's the big difference
00:30:53between your breed of sheep
00:30:54the Jacob
00:30:55and my Clins
00:30:55because
00:30:56no mine's cuter
00:30:57well yours have horns
00:30:58it's got lovely markings
00:31:00hasn't it
00:31:00yeah
00:31:01if you ever put her up
00:31:02for adoption
00:31:02can I have first refusal
00:31:04what a puppet
00:31:06I mean bringing up
00:31:07a child like that
00:31:08who's really taken
00:31:09to farm life
00:31:10it's just
00:31:12it must thrill you
00:31:13you know
00:31:13you've done the right thing
00:31:15by them really
00:31:16as well as by yourselves
00:31:17immensely proud
00:31:19I guess like most parents
00:31:20but just to see them thrive
00:31:21you know
00:31:21we took a giant leap
00:31:23a step into the unknown
00:31:24you know
00:31:26and the children just
00:31:28came along
00:31:29you know
00:31:30and they didn't get much
00:31:31obviously saying that
00:31:32and they've just taken to this
00:31:33this life so well
00:31:34you know the transition
00:31:35kids are just so good
00:31:37at transitioning
00:31:38and the way the kids
00:31:39have picked up this
00:31:40this new life
00:31:41has been fantastic
00:31:42and to see Marnie
00:31:43you know
00:31:44becoming the shepherdess
00:31:45that she is
00:31:46yeah it's just a really
00:31:47you know
00:31:47lovely moment
00:31:48well we're doing our bit
00:31:50on Live Your Weekend
00:31:51by promoting young farmers
00:31:53and showing
00:31:53kids
00:31:54I say kids
00:31:55you know
00:31:56I'm an old man
00:31:56but I mean you know
00:31:57the younger generation
00:31:58who get a kick out of farming
00:31:59who know how important it is
00:32:00and who love it
00:32:01Marnie's an example of that
00:32:03but you yourselves
00:32:04now you're in that community
00:32:05you must realise
00:32:06that the perilous nature
00:32:07of farming
00:32:08and also
00:32:08the importance
00:32:10of encouraging
00:32:11another generation
00:32:12to come forward
00:32:13and to participate in it
00:32:14to do it
00:32:15to run the landscape
00:32:16and to feed us
00:32:18like you do
00:32:19it is hard work
00:32:20it's long hours
00:32:21there's not much reward for it
00:32:22but when we see our children
00:32:24doing it
00:32:24and for us as well
00:32:25we get so much from it
00:32:26and I think it gives the children
00:32:28a great purpose
00:32:29it gives us a great purpose
00:32:30it's just amazing
00:32:32that we can
00:32:33you know
00:32:33you are providing food
00:32:35you are providing
00:32:35for the nation
00:32:37I guess
00:32:38and whether it's a small farm
00:32:40or a large farm
00:32:40you're putting your bit in
00:32:42and I think that's what I love
00:32:43to see the children doing
00:32:44learning
00:32:44the importance
00:32:45the responsibility

01:05:09A series that followed the work of the London Metropolitan Police Service's unsolved crime and open case squad.
01:05:15In other words, cold cases for those of us in the know.
01:05:19You cost his favourite DS Sandra Pullman actress Amanda Redman returns to our screens, this time in the Reverend Richard Cole's Murder Before Even song.
01:05:29It'd be a crime to miss it.
01:05:31Welcome back to Love Your Weekend.
01:05:46And still ahead, if it's good enough for Angie Watts, it's good enough for us.
01:05:51Well, perhaps smaller measures than one with a mixer.
01:05:55Andy Clark serving up gin the professional way with his guide to making the creme de la creme G&Ts.
01:06:01But first, whodunit fans rejoice when a body's found dead in the back of the local church.
01:06:08Village life is never the same as a fractured community comes together to catch a killer.
01:06:14Reverend Glewitz, did you tell us about the murder last night?
01:06:19Sir, what did you tell them?
01:06:20I said no comment.
01:06:21I've always wanted to say that.
01:06:25None of this makes sense.
01:06:27To take a life in a church, what purpose did it serve?
01:06:34You must know quite a lot about everyone living here.
01:06:36Only what they want to share.
01:06:38Even so, I think you might be useful.
01:06:41Such excitement.
01:06:42You think so?
01:06:43Absolutely.
01:06:43Unless you've got something to hide.
01:06:46You have a nice life here, Daniel.
01:06:47Just keep your head down.
01:06:49Keep your nose out of other people's business.
01:06:52So what if they made a mistake and the person they really wanted to kill was you?
01:06:56You should burn in hell.
01:06:58Does that answer your question?
01:07:00Oh, Richard Coles wrote the book and now he's been filmed and it's a series.
01:07:04And you're playing Matthew Lewis, a.k.a. Neville Longbottom's mum.
01:07:10I am.
01:07:10He's a vicar in this one.
01:07:12Because we saw him really enjoyed him in All Creatures Great and Small.
01:07:15Yes.
01:07:15Is that?
01:07:15It is, isn't it?
01:07:16Yes.
01:07:16And now, there you are.
01:07:18I know.
01:07:18And he doesn't look like Neville Longbottom anymore.
01:07:21No, he doesn't, does he?
01:07:22As my children said.
01:07:24As my daughter said.
01:07:25No, you know.
01:07:27I know.
01:07:27He's grown up.
01:07:29Yeah, he has grown up.
01:07:30And a nice lad.
01:07:31Well, he must be because he's from Ortsford in Yorkshire.
01:07:33Oh, he's gorgeous.
01:07:35He's such a sweetheart.
01:07:37He's a real, he looked after me.
01:07:39He would carry my bags.
01:07:41He's a very old-fashioned boy.
01:07:42He'd open the doors and all the rest of it.
01:07:44He was adorable.
01:07:45He's a lovely guy.
01:07:46I'm a great admirer of the hairstyle, Amanda.
01:07:49The hairstyle, yes.
01:07:52So, we decided how she would look.
01:07:54It's set in the late 80s, in a particular community, in the sort of North Midlands.
01:08:04And we sort of went, we decided that she would be a great fan of the late Queen.
01:08:10So, might style her hair a little like that.
01:08:12Yes.
01:08:13And a great fan of Margaret Thatcher, so she would internally be like Mrs. Thatcher.
01:08:19You're making this part more and more fun to play, aren't you?
01:08:23Mrs. Thatcher meets the Queen, who's actually, and she's actually the mother of a vicar.
01:08:27I mean, whoa, how much power to your elbow with that little scenario in your head?
01:08:31You know what?
01:08:32I mean, from the minute I got the scripts, I read it, and I thought, well, my character's got the best lines.
01:08:38She's fearsome.
01:08:39She's really one to be reckoned with.
01:08:43She doesn't take fools gladly.
01:08:46She's actually very much a woman of that generation.
01:08:49You know, went through the war.
01:08:51She could strip an engine down just as good as the Queen, you know.
01:08:55It was in the 80s, yes.
01:08:56In the 80s, absolutely.
01:08:57And she drove an ambulance during the Blitz when she was 16 and all the rest of it.
01:09:01And I have great admiration for those people, actually.
01:09:05The strength behind it gets on with it.
01:09:07The other thing that we love to watch, and we watched it for years, we still occasionally see repeats, is this.
01:09:12Because you will, whether you like it or not, you are forever going to remember it, and very fondly, along with James Bolam, Dennis Waterman, and Alan Armstrong in New Tricks.
01:09:24Not bad for a bunch of sad old men.
01:09:27I don't suppose you lot are taping this by any chance.
01:09:44You really never were a cop in the 70s.
01:09:47You're just a bunch of criminals.
01:09:48Oh, that's right.
01:09:49Oh, I'm sorry.
01:09:50Crooks.
01:09:51Bunch of old crooks.
01:09:52Oh, I'll settle for that.
01:09:59Cheers.
01:10:03Well, it's all right
01:10:06Even if you're old and grey
01:10:08Yeah, well, it's all right
01:10:11You've still got something to say
01:10:14Dennis Waterman there, singer From the Word Go.
01:10:17Clearly a lot of fun, and a lot of wine, by the look of it, as well.
01:10:20The rapport and the chemistry between you as a quartet was quite remarkable, and there were pauses in it sometimes.
01:10:27I remember when we were watching you thinking, somebody's like, they're just going to go here.
01:10:32That happens every day.
01:10:34Every single day.
01:10:35In fact, I remember Jimmy saying, there hasn't been a day that we've come into work where we haven't laughed.
01:10:39Yeah.
01:10:39From make-up right the way through.
01:10:42It was a joy.
01:10:44Looking at that made me start to well up a little bit.
01:10:49So special.
01:10:50They were really good stories.
01:10:51I mean, good acting, obviously.
01:10:52Well written.
01:10:54A great thrill.
01:10:55I did a couple of Victoria Wood Christmas specials.
01:10:58And when I say I got to act with James Bolum.
01:11:01Did you?
01:11:01Well, he was doing so, and I came in as a gardener, what else, you know, for Victoria, and stood there and said something about a good place for a water feature.
01:11:10It was a Jane Austen spoof or something, and I had to come and say, and he was there in a long court, and we didn't actually emote together, but when the scene had finished, he said, hey up, Alan, all right.
01:11:19And I thought, James Bolum called me Alan, it's, you know, well, when you've got, there are various heroes in TV, and gosh, I've worked in it for 50 years now, you know, so I've met so many people.
01:11:30But it was a great thrill meeting him.
01:11:32Oh, gosh, he was, I hadn't, I had met the other two, but I hadn't met him before we did that pilot.
01:11:38And I was very nervous, you know, because I was such a fan, but he made me laugh.
01:11:46He's a terrible giggler.
01:11:48Yeah.
01:11:48He's very badly behaved, you know.
01:11:51It's always nice to hear that, isn't it?
01:11:53It's terrible.
01:11:54And so, of course, once we started court-sing laughing, and the ice was broken.
01:11:59So, playing fictional characters there, and in the Richard Cole's Murder Before Even song, playing real people is another challenge, isn't it?
01:12:08You played Tommy Cooper's wife, Gwen Dove.
01:12:11Yes.
01:12:11Let's see, you're playing Mrs Cooper.
01:12:13Oh, oh, she's passed it then, poor old love.
01:12:15What's going on?
01:12:16Your dad's got a spare woman on the go.
01:12:17No, don't.
01:12:18I haven't.
01:12:19We'll come back later.
01:12:22She helped me on the road.
01:12:25She's got her job.
01:12:26So why didn't you tell me about her?
01:12:27Because I knew you'd go mad like this.
01:12:29Oh, that was a present from Miv.
01:12:41It's going to want 15% of that back.
01:12:44David Threlfall looking and sounding and capturing Tommy Cooper.
01:12:54Yeah, he was phenomenal.
01:12:55You got a BAFTA nomination for that, did you not?
01:12:58I did.
01:12:59I did.
01:12:59But you must also have felt there that you were actually almost in the presence of Tommy Cooper.
01:13:03Yes.
01:13:03You seemed to channel him, really.
01:13:05He was absolutely incredible.
01:13:07He spent hours every day in make-up, hours, because of so much prosthetic work.
01:13:12And you'd watch, he would be very quiet, but you'd watch over the hours that he spent there.
01:13:19He would turn into Tommy and he didn't come out of character, which was very important.
01:13:26I thought that was an incredible performance.
01:13:30What did you make of Tommy?
01:13:31Did it affect your view of him as a man, as a comedian?
01:13:35Yes, I didn't know half the stuff.
01:13:38But then I do think, it sounds a cliche, but I think it's an altruism that a lot of comedians,
01:13:46it's the sadness of the clown, isn't it?
01:13:48It's the two faces.
01:13:50And he was a sad man.
01:13:51Quite a different real-life character to play was Diana Dawes.
01:13:57When we lived many, many years ago, we first got married in a tiny cottage in Sunnydale,
01:14:01and she used to live in Sunnydale.
01:14:02She did.
01:14:02Not in a tiny cottage, but in a big house.
01:14:04And she used to go and shop at our butchers.
01:14:06Did she?
01:14:06In the convertible blue Rolls Royce.
01:14:09And you'd see her pull up, she goes, Diana Dawes, Diana Dawes, going to the butcher.
01:14:13You know, she slept in that car.
01:14:14Did she?
01:14:15Yes.
01:14:16She spent all her money, she didn't have any money at one point,
01:14:19and she spent it all on this Rolls.
01:14:21this convertible blue, because I got to drive it, which was fantastic, or one like it.
01:14:26Maybe it was you I saw.
01:14:28It could be.
01:14:28It wasn't Diana Dawes.
01:14:29It wasn't Diana Dawes.
01:14:29It wasn't Diana Dawes, so.
01:14:31And she couldn't afford digs, so she'd sleep in the car.
01:14:35She'd drive to do working men's clubs, and she'd sleep in the car.
01:14:39Goodness me.
01:14:39It was called the Blonde Bombshell.
01:14:41Keely Horse played the younger Diana Dawes,
01:14:43and you played the one who became the Blonde Bombshell.
01:14:47Jane Mansfield is, well, just a joke with the kids now.
01:14:50And Diana Dawes?
01:14:57I don't think they'd even know you.
01:15:02I'm sorry, darling, but that's how it is.
01:15:08That's why I think you ought to go back.
01:15:10You're wrong.
01:15:14Well, I'd like to believe that.
01:15:19You think I'm forgotten?
01:15:20Look, Diana.
01:15:22You know, that's the way...
01:15:23Do they say I'm forgotten?
01:15:27Look, I'm sure you can still generate a few headlines.
01:15:30You know, there's an older generation who remember you,
01:15:32but they're not the ones who buy the tickets these days.
01:15:34You're wrong, Will, and I'll prove it.
01:15:36Diana.
01:15:40Dorsey.
01:15:41Oh, you got the walk.
01:15:42That was exactly how she walked.
01:15:44The moment there when the media focus is gone,
01:15:47the fame is not what it was,
01:15:49and the work's dried up, which is incredibly poignant.
01:15:52But what she discovered about herself
01:15:55was that she was a good actress later on,
01:15:58you know, when she wasn't having to be the blonde bum show.
01:16:01And she did some incredible films,
01:16:03and she played...
01:16:04It was based on Ruth Ellis,
01:16:05the last woman to be hanged into the night,
01:16:08and she was phenomenal in that.
01:16:11And then she played a Dickensian lady with warts and all
01:16:15in a BBC classic drama.
01:16:18And it was a Dickens.
01:16:19And she was all on it, you know.
01:16:21She was fantastic.
01:16:22I do want to show just one more clip,
01:16:24and that's of you acting with someone.
01:16:26Your life is flashing before you here.
01:16:29That's for Eamon Andrews to walk in.
01:16:30Well, it is, yes.
01:16:32This is your life.
01:16:34This was your life when you were acting with someone
01:16:36that I didn't know, then,
01:16:37that Amanda Redmond had acted with Denzel Washington.
01:16:43Do you want to dance?
01:16:45Do you want to dance?
01:16:46After you.
01:16:49Do you love me?
01:16:50Let's make love under the apple tree.
01:16:52That's what you say to me.
01:16:54That's what you say to me.
01:16:57That's what you say to me.
01:16:59Woo-hoo!
01:17:02What does the R stand for?
01:17:04What?
01:17:05The R on the back of your medals.
01:17:07It says R James.
01:17:09Guess.
01:17:11Rude.
01:17:13Close.
01:17:14Rude.
01:17:14Ruben.
01:17:16What's yours, then?
01:17:17No, no, let me guess.
01:17:20Stroppy.
01:17:21Close.
01:17:22Dicey.
01:17:29Definite sexual tension, though.
01:17:30We cut that because it's too early in the day.
01:17:32Between you and Denzel Washington
01:17:34speaking very much as one has never heard Denzel Washington
01:17:37and speaking before like that.
01:17:40You could put that in a quiz on the radio, couldn't you?
01:17:42Who is this?
01:17:43Nobody would ever say Denzel Washington.
01:17:45But quite early on in his career.
01:17:47But was there a distinct,
01:17:48oh, this man will go far.
01:17:49So Denzel had just done Cry Freedom,
01:17:51which was directed by Richard Attenborough
01:17:53and hotly tipped to be nominated for an Oscar.
01:17:57So he was sort of, you know...
01:17:59On his way.
01:17:59Yeah, yeah, yeah, he was.
01:18:01When you look back,
01:18:02the people you've worked with,
01:18:03you've had a good time, really.
01:18:05You've enjoyed yourself, Amanda Redman, haven't you, really?
01:18:07I have enjoyed myself hugely.
01:18:09We've enjoyed having you here.
01:18:10Thank you very much indeed.
01:18:11Thank you.
01:18:11Amanda Redman, this is your life.
01:18:14This has been your life.
01:18:16Time now for everyone's favourite guessing game.
01:18:20Stunning footage set to some equally stunning music.
01:18:23It's time for today's Ode to Joy.
01:18:37Ode to Joy
01:19:07Ode to Joy
01:19:37Did you guess right?
01:19:58Did you get the country right, Scotland?
01:20:00It was Glencoe, up in the Scottish Highlands,
01:20:02courtesy of Cliff Hansen's set to the Symphony No. 5 by Beethoven.
01:20:08Coming up, the Man O' Arms gets a sophisticated makeover
01:20:11for today's Best of British.
01:20:13Andy Clark's opened a gin bar
01:20:15and our guests seem to be liking the new look.
01:20:18I'll be back with Andy, Kelvin, Liz and Amanda
01:20:20and those G&Ts right after the break.
01:20:23Welcome back to Love Your Weekend.
01:20:40From bars and pubs to supermarket shelves,
01:20:43you cannot escape the huge explosion in the popularity of gin
01:20:48here in the UK over the past decade.
01:20:51But what really lies behind the fancy coloured bottles
01:20:55and the slick packaging?
01:20:57What makes the dizzying array of gins on offer
01:21:00distinct from one another?
01:21:02I wish I knew, but taking us back to basics
01:21:04to understand the key components
01:21:06of some of our favourite gin varieties,
01:21:08a man with more than a goblet full of zest and personality himself.
01:21:13Welcome, drinks expert Andy Clark, zesty in a pink top.
01:21:17Thank you very much.
01:21:18I thought, bring the party to the barn, why not?
01:21:20Yes, gin.
01:21:21We all think we know gin,
01:21:23but there's so many different types of gin out there.
01:21:24I thought I'd try and demystify what we see on the shelves
01:21:27and what you might indeed have at home.
01:21:29So the first gin is a London dry gin.
01:21:32I wanted to sort of explain what a London dry is.
01:21:35London dry gin is actually a method of making gin.
01:21:38It doesn't have to be made in London.
01:21:40It's basically an industry standard
01:21:41where any botanicals that are put in
01:21:44have to be natural and not synthetic
01:21:45and they have to be put into the distillation process
01:21:48rather than added afterwards.
01:21:50Kelvin's pulling a face.
01:21:51I'm not sure whether that was going to happen.
01:21:53That's got a big kick, a huge contrast.
01:21:56I'm not, my initial thoughts,
01:21:58I'm not that keen on that one.
01:22:00It's a bit too overpowering.
01:22:01It's quite earthy, Andy.
01:22:02Yeah, so this is on the wall London dry gin
01:22:06from Bradwell-on-Sea in Essex
01:22:09and it's number 653.
01:22:11They didn't make that many batches to get it right.
01:22:12I think if I drank too much of this,
01:22:14I'd be off the wall.
01:22:15Yeah, yeah.
01:22:15I'd be on the wall.
01:22:16This, as well as having juniper in there,
01:22:18they've got citrus
01:22:19and they've got fresh pink grapefruit peel in there.
01:22:21So I think that's what you're getting.
01:22:23You get that slice.
01:22:24That's what I'm tasting.
01:22:24Yes.
01:22:25So you get the pink grapefruit in there.
01:22:27Yes, yes it is.
01:22:28Quite pronounced, isn't it?
01:22:29Liz, do we like it?
01:22:31Yeah, it's quite fresh.
01:22:32It's got a little bit of an aftertaste to it, hasn't it?
01:22:35Hasn't it?
01:22:36I've seen many already.
01:22:37Well, it's won the Gin Guide Awards
01:22:39and Great Taste Awards the last two years
01:22:41and it's a couple who live in Essex
01:22:43and making different gins
01:22:44and they've named this one 653
01:22:46because that's the date that their local chapel
01:22:49in their town was built
01:22:50and so they wanted to name it that.
01:22:53Wow, 653.
01:22:54Wow.
01:22:55It's, I think, one of the oldest chapels in the country.
01:22:57Oh my gosh.
01:22:58I believe.
01:22:59So, yeah.
01:22:59Wow.
01:23:00Very distinctive.
01:23:02Not like any other gin.
01:23:03Yeah, I've never tasted gin quite like this.
01:23:05No.
01:23:06But I like it.
01:23:06I like it.
01:23:08Okay, now the second drink is an Old Tom Gin.
01:23:11Now an Old Tom Gin is traditionally slightly sweeter
01:23:14than the London Dry
01:23:15and this goes back to the days in the 18th century
01:23:18where there was huge taxes on gins.
01:23:21People were making gins behind closed doors
01:23:23and there would often be a symbol
01:23:26that looked like an Old Tom Cat outside
01:23:28so that you knew that's where you could get your Old Tom Gin
01:23:30and you could get gin through a little shoot and taste it.
01:23:33It's had a resurgence because it's slightly sweeter
01:23:35and works really nicely in cocktails
01:23:37and this is York Gin.
01:23:39This is a sustainable, very green company
01:23:42working in York
01:23:43and they've got a beautiful 16th century bottle shop.
01:23:45This is delicious
01:23:45and as you say, it's that much sweeter
01:23:47but that's gin, isn't it?
01:23:50I agree with you.
01:23:51Absolutely.
01:23:51This is lovely.
01:23:52It tastes so lovely.
01:23:53That little edge of sweetness is beautiful
01:23:56and what they do after distillation
01:23:58they add a little sugar syrup
01:23:59which has got the wild white rose of York in it
01:24:03and they use the botanicals and the rose petals
01:24:05from the garden at the Star Inn in Haram
01:24:07which is a Michelin star restaurant run by Andrew Pern
01:24:09and they put that in it
01:24:11so they absolutely are using local produce
01:24:14and I think they're doing a really good job.
01:24:15It tastes really clean, doesn't it?
01:24:17Yeah, it does.
01:24:18This is really nice.
01:24:19It does Kelvin better than the previous one.
01:24:20This is my favourite one so far.
01:24:22Yeah.
01:24:22And I like the bottle as well, the design.
01:24:24Yeah.
01:24:25It's beautiful.
01:24:26They do a range of different gins
01:24:27but I think this is a really, really great example
01:24:29and again, that slight sweetness
01:24:31if you're making strong gin cocktails at home
01:24:33it's really nice
01:24:34because the amount of other alcohols
01:24:35and citrus you put into cocktails
01:24:37the sweetness and the gin counteract that
01:24:39but it's not a gin liqueur by any means.
01:24:41It's obviously not sweet
01:24:42only a dash of sweetness in there
01:24:43which is really, really nice.
01:24:45Now we've got to the school tumbler.
01:24:46We have got a tumbler here.
01:24:48Now this is an example of a botanical
01:24:50or a garden gin.
01:24:51We hear about botanical and garden gins
01:24:52Oh gosh, this is sniffing size.
01:24:54Smell it?
01:24:54Sniffing.
01:24:55It's very different.
01:24:56There's a floral nature.
01:24:57It's almost like talcum powder.
01:25:00It is.
01:25:01So a botanical or garden gin
01:25:03is where there'll be juniper in there
01:25:05but they will concentrate on other botanicals
01:25:07giving a very different character.
01:25:08Now this is Brixton gin.
01:25:10You often think of these garden gins
01:25:11being made in stately homes
01:25:12with a walled garden
01:25:13but this is made in South London.
01:25:15It's made using some raw honey
01:25:17from Brixton bees.
01:25:18Palmer violets?
01:25:19It's got a pal.
01:25:20Palmer violets.
01:25:20It's got a violet.
01:25:21Yes, that's what it is.
01:25:23It's wild wood violets.
01:25:25They have basically,
01:25:26in urban open spaces
01:25:27that are disused in Brixton
01:25:28they are foraging the botanicals
01:25:30to put into this gin
01:25:32and it just has a really, really distinct
01:25:35floral but very pleasant floral flavor.
01:25:37But you've also got a bit of hibiscus in there
01:25:39also a juniper
01:25:41and some citrus to balance out the floral
01:25:43so it doesn't taste soapy
01:25:44because you could easily get
01:25:45that sort of flavor profile wrong.
01:25:47Oh yes, I can see what you mean.
01:25:48It could easily go soapy this, couldn't it?
01:25:50It stays to the right side of it, do you think?
01:25:53Yeah.
01:25:53Yeah.
01:25:53That's my favorite
01:25:54but I don't know how many I could have
01:25:55whether that taste would get a little bit.
01:25:57Yeah.
01:25:57Not sickly but, you know, it feels...
01:25:59Yeah, I know what you mean
01:26:00but this is why it's worth having
01:26:01different gins on your shelf
01:26:02because after maybe a couple of those
01:26:03you could go,
01:26:04Oh, I might go there, I might go there.
01:26:06How long does gin last?
01:26:08Oh, a long time.
01:26:09Oh, about three days.
01:26:11Well, I was going to say
01:26:13it doesn't last very long in my house
01:26:15but because of the alcohol...
01:26:16It's longer than that, I was joking.
01:26:17Oh, right, okay.
01:26:19Responsibly and all that.
01:26:20But no, it will last and last.
01:26:21It'll last there only.
01:26:22Okay, the last one.
01:26:24This is an example of a coastal gin.
01:26:27Coastal gins take inspiration
01:26:29and botanicals from the coastal paths
01:26:31the beaches, the coastline of the UK
01:26:34and this is Bullard's coastal gin
01:26:37and I really love this
01:26:38because you've not only got
01:26:39the beautiful sort of piney woods
01:26:42around the coast of Norfolk
01:26:43where they're based
01:26:44but you've also got lovely things
01:26:46like the plants
01:26:47so the sea aster
01:26:48and different sea herds in there.
01:26:51It's a bit...
01:26:51When I say it's salty
01:26:52I don't mean it's salty
01:26:53but it is kind of salty.
01:26:54Saline.
01:26:55It's got a saline quality.
01:26:56If you imagine all of those
01:26:58beautiful coastal plants and herbs
01:26:59they've all got...
01:27:01If you taste them
01:27:02like sea purslane
01:27:03and stuff like that
01:27:04when you have it as a garnish
01:27:05on scallops or something
01:27:06you taste that saltiness
01:27:08so you've got this viscous
01:27:10and that sort of salinity
01:27:11which makes a really good martini.
01:27:13I just hope there's no milk in tonight
01:27:15because, you know, this is...
01:27:17Poor lad, do you know?
01:27:19That's the most different tasting gin
01:27:22I've ever had.
01:27:23It's really, really distinct.
01:27:25The tonic can be quite bitter.
01:27:26It then mixes
01:27:26but sometimes if you mix it
01:27:27with something like a ginger ale
01:27:29or something
01:27:29it makes it a little...
01:27:30It takes the edge off slightly.
01:27:32Yeah.
01:27:32Can you drink gin with anything?
01:27:34It's always with tonic.
01:27:36Is there anything else,
01:27:37a single thing that you would...
01:27:39Would you mix gin with ginger ale?
01:27:41You can.
01:27:41You absolutely can.
01:27:42Does it work together?
01:27:43I tend to...
01:27:44If you're over that sort of
01:27:45slight bitterness of quinine
01:27:46in tonic
01:27:47sometimes I'll go for something
01:27:49like a citrus soda
01:27:50like a lemon soda
01:27:51or a grapefruit soda
01:27:52just to vary it up a little bit.
01:27:55But it's worth it.
01:27:56If you've got a gin
01:27:56that you think you like
01:27:57then you should try it
01:27:59with different mixes
01:28:00and just see how it opens up
01:28:02or how it doesn't
01:28:03and see how it changes definitely.
01:28:04But a bit of citrus
01:28:05never goes astray
01:28:06with a good gin.
01:28:07Well I think we've enjoyed
01:28:08almost all of those
01:28:09in different ways
01:28:10haven't we?
01:28:10Yes.
01:28:11Oh.
01:28:12Lots of smiles.
01:28:13Liz is still slugging it back
01:28:14so that's...
01:28:15Well I thought I would.
