ladies and gentlemen please pray silence for the KING OF ENGLISH
ooh I'm so excited I'm so excited I just can't stand all of this excitement today
oh my goodness we're live we are now actually live on
the Internet oh my goodness hello there hi everybody
how are you today are you okay I hope so are you happy I really really hope so I
feel so excited today just to prove how excited I feel today I've actually been
doing this lesson since 10 o'clock this morning so I've actually been doing this
lesson for the past 4 hours but I haven't even been streaming on YouTube
I'm so excited I couldn't wait so I've been here doing this lesson for the past
4 hours and no one has seen it so that's how excited that's how eager I am to be
here today I've been here all morning just practicing on my own it's the story
of my life so here we go it is Sunday another week has flown by how was your
week was it good did you have a good week I really really hope so I've
received some complaints of course sometimes people do complain what do we
have here
mr. Duncan why does it take two minutes to start the live lesson stop wasting my
time from angry viewer there it is you see
there it is a complaint I've had a complaint the reason why it takes two
minutes to start my stream is because the stream is a very technical thing
live streaming on YouTube is very very technical it uses all sorts of equipment
so I'm not going to explain that but let's just say the two minutes is very
important at the beginning because it allows me to to set the live stream up
to prepare things so that's the reason why we have two minutes at the beginning
of the live stream it's all to do with technicalities it's all to do with the
technical equipment that you have to use to do the live stream so I hope that
answers your question so here we go we have a very busy lesson today we have so
many things to get through but first of all in my garden yesterday I noticed
that there were lots of lady birds can you see that there on the screen that is
a photograph that I took yesterday of one of the lady Birds there are hundreds
and hundreds of lady Birds in my garden at the moment and I don't know where
they're coming from but there are loads of them lots of them everywhere when you
have a large group of insects you normally call it a swarm swarm so we can
say that at the moment outside my house there is a swarm of lady birds there are
lots and lots of lady birds now the reason why there are lots of Lady birds
around at the moment is because they are all about
to hibernate because yesterday was the first day of autumn
so autumn has now arrived and many animals many insects are now preparing
for the onset of winter so everything is starting to wind down so autumn for me
anyway is a very special time of year I think it's a very special season because
it's the time of year when everything starts to wind down in nature
so at the moment the lady birds are all finding a nice place to go to sleep
during the winter they are all preparing to hibernate hibernate
so to hibernate is to go to sleep for a period of time normally during the
winter months so ladybirds many different types of insects and of
course many different animals will also hibernate including hedgehogs and I
believe badgers as well also hibernate so there are many animals that come go
to sleep during the winter and ladybirds are one of those creatures we will be
talking about animals today because I was thinking the other day about all of
the different animals that come into my garden and I was thinking what was the
most unusual animal that has ever been in my garden the strangest animal that
has ever been in my garden would you like to see it let's have a look now
shall we so this is the strangest animal that's ever been in my garden and here
it is there it is so this is some video footage filmed at my previous house and
this is an actual bird that I found in my garden it is called a
crown'd parakeet now normally you don't find these birds in this country in fact
they they are native of New Zealand can you believe it so this particular bird
was very far from its home thousands of miles in fact so this is a red-crowned
parakeet and this is the most the most unusual bird that I've ever had in my
garden in fact it's the most unusual creature now I think that it must have
escaped from its owner's house or maybe from its cage so I think this particular
bird must have escaped from a cage or from the owner so there it is a red
crowned parakeet and that is actual footage that is an actual video filmed
in my back garden and can you imagine the surprise can you imagine this part
surprised when I found that particular bird in my garden it is a very exotic
bird it is not the normal bird that you find flying around in the UK so that
particular bird is an exotic bird exotic it is a red crowned parakeet it is what
we call a tropical bird or exotic something very exotic something very
unusual from a distant place we can say it's very exotic
I'm feeling very exotic today so many things to tell you so much news
yesterday mr. Steve and myself we met our new neighbors yes it is
official we have new neighbors living next door to us so we met them yesterday
and that went quite well really also this week just to show that
winter is on the way the firewood yes we had the firewood delivered this
week so now we have some firewood so we can have a nice warm fire during the
winter months so there it is that is the recent delivery of firewood that arrived
last week and it took me about an hour to carry all of that wood into the house
so there it is the firewood already to keep me warm during the cold winter
months so as you can see the year is really going by very quickly and there
is my winter firewood so the logs have arrived so now we are ready we are ready
for winter to come and of course yesterday was the first day of autumn so
now it is autumn so very soon the leaves will turn brown or gold and then they
will fall to the ground and then autumn will arrive and of course you know what
happens next after autumn here in the UK then we have winter oh dear at least I
have my firewood ready my logs are ready to keep me warm

Tamas Mina and a Gustin mr. Duncan what do lady birds eat they eat vegetables

bugs other bugs but for most of the time they eat leaves and different types of
plants Marta is here hello Marta Marta is watching in Poland thanks for joining

today
YouTube have made a lot of changes recently and the live chat has changed
as well Milton is here hello Milton Milton Bravo hello mr. Duncan I couldn't
watch you on the screen I don't know what happened but best regards to you
and everyone on this channel oh ok Milton I don't know what the
problem is quite a few people last week said they couldn't join in on the live
chat I don't know why maybe there was a technical problem I have no idea
shall we have a look at mr. Steve because we have mr. Steve live at 3
o'clock today but right now we are going to have the first part
of our special video all about making Jam so during the week mr. Steve and
myself we were busy in the kitchen making jam and here is the first part of
our jam making
welcome to mr. Duncan's garden mr. Duncan and mr. Steve with you on a
Sunday afternoon and here we are now in the garden and something very
interesting is taking place something is occurring in the garden but what could
it be well if you look in the distance you
will see mr. Steve is up to something but what is he doing let's let's take a
close look and see just what mr. Steve is doing what am i doing I'm picking
fruit or to be more precise damsons I'm going to make something with them with
those bags of sugar that we looked at in the last week's lesson and I'm going to
make some Jam J a.m. Jam there we go I need a few more of those I need 6
pounds and there's not much left on here is 6 pounds sounds like a lot well that
is in kilograms but it's it's it's going to probably come halfway up this bucket
and that's what we need now I've already given quite a few of these away to the
neighbors because they like to make Jam as well gives some children but I
haven't left much for myself plus it's getting late in the season now and the
fruit is going a little off so this is the first bit we pick the fruit this is
the this is a boring bit really I think there's a lot of spiders in this tree I
just found a spider on my arm before you came out trying to pick this
as quick as I can frantic frantic frantic that's a great
that's a great word mr. Steve frantic if you do something
frantically it means you do it in a rush or in a hurry I'm doing this in a rush
because it's going to be dark soon and I want to make this before the tea tonight
and it takes quite a long time to make jam we don't want that one in there yeah
that's been chewed out by a wasp so that one's going I must admit I do admire
your quality control mr. Steve you have you have a very high standard of quality
control this fruit is definitely very ripe you can of course you don't have to
make this into jam you can just eat them I won't because I haven't washed these I
could eat that but I won't because there might have been it a few insects
crawling over there I've got to be the knight there might be a bit of insect
poop on the dams and so always wash the fruit they've never picked fruit from
the tree and then eat it so I always think I always think it's a good idea to
wash the fruit first before you eat it
so mr. Steve after you've picked the damsons what what happens next just give
us a clue as to what happens next I'll show you what happens next well I think
people can probably guess we have to wash the fruit that's the next thing
we're going to do ok mr. Steve tell us now what are we doing here I'm going to
wait at the fruit to see if we've got end up there we go it said that now we
don't want that that's not going to make the jam very tasty so now we're gonna
put it in the water take out all these leaves yes I'm gonna go and see if I can
get it I want that to go up to there I want six pounds altogether so I'm gonna
go back outside to see back and find a few more joiners later on for the next
stage of mr. Steve's GM making
yes we are here on a Sunday live across the world planet Earth is blue and
there's nothing I can do isn't it strange how some English words can get
confused with each other here are two words that seem very
similar but have very different meanings the first word is nature naturalist
naturalist so the first word is naturalist the second word is naturist
so we have two words that look similar but have very different meanings the
first word naturalist is a person who is interested in nature and wildlife the
second word is naturist which means a person who enjoys being naked they like
taking their clothes off and being naked with other people so please make sure
that if you ever describe yourself as a person who enjoys the wildlife please
make sure that you get the right word so it's naturalist naturalist is a
person who enjoys nature a naturist is a person who enjoys walking around in the
nude so it's best that you don't get those two words confused okay okay I am
going to ask you to do something today I am going to ask you to show me your
artistic talent I want you to draw a picture of mr. Duncan that's me and also
mr. Steve as well I want you to show your artistic
talent today and please send the picture to my email address so I will be showing
your pictures today so please if you want if you want to get involved draw a
picture of mr. Duncan and mr. Steve email your pictures today to the address
on the screen you can see it there and I will show some of your pictures but
please please can we have no rude pictures thank you very much so so if
you want to draw a picture I've also asked mr. Steve to do the same thing so
I've actually asked mr. Steve to draw a picture as well so mr. Steve at three
o'clock will be showing us his picture that he's drawn of myself and him so
there we go something to look forward to and something for you to get involved in
today so draw a picture of mr. Duncan and mr. Steve use your artistic talent
to give me your your impression of mr. Duncan that's me and also mr. Steve as
well and if you send it to my email address I will show some of the pictures
later on I hope you will get involved that would be ever so nice and I will
show them right here live on YouTube so draw a picture it can be just of our
faces if you want or maybe all of us our whole bodies don't forget if you are
drawing me make sure you you have very big feet because my feet are very large
mr. Steve has very small feet so that is something just to help you to give you a
guide whilst you are drawing the picture so that's something I want to do today
it is officially autumn autumn is now here can you believe that I can't I
really can't a little bit later on we are talking about food
dude we will also be having a look at some of my other English lessons as well
right now we are going to have a look at and ask mr. Duncan lesson now ask mr.
Duncan was a series of lessons that I did over time and I did about 45 of them
45 ask mr. Duncan lessons and in these lessons I answer your questions hi
everybody this is mr. Duncan in England how are you today are you okay I hope so
are you happy I hope so here I am with you all once
again as October looms over the horizon and the long shadows of winter creep
ever nearer yes it's time to take her rummage through what I like to call my
email inbox another selection of your questions and comments await so without
any more dilly dallying and a lollygagging let's have our first
question for today why do people use the expression you know while speaking
English
do you know what I'm doing I'm looking at one of my videos please yourself this
interesting question comes from Nicole who lives in Canada first it is worth
noting that during everyday speech people tend to use involuntary phrases
and words in their sentences it is common to hear people use phrases such
as you know as a way of reinforcing their statement it is a kind of phrasal
tic a speech habit it is supposed to add emphasis to the point a person is making
you know it is what I do when I'm telling you something you know another
speech habit is where the person says yeah in or at the end of almost every
sentence mermaid goes down to the shops yeah cuz he's out of bread yeah and when
he gets there yeah the place is closed this can be a little annoying to listen
to my mate bill he is a lawyer yeah and he says he can help you get your money
back yeah other phrasal tix include repeatedly using actually or basically
as well as I know as another person is explaining something or talking about
their problems basically actually you know yeah it's annoying nice email I
have received a nice email from Rachel who lives in Hong Kong
Rachel writes to say that she discovered my YouTube English lessons through her
teacher who plays my videos in the classroom during each English lesson
well Rachel your teacher is not the only one doing this many schools around the
world are now using my video lessons in their classrooms too so I'm happy to
hear they have proved useful to both you and your classmates take care and
Nihao Meyer to everyone watching in Hong Kong why don't you allow comments on
your ask mr. Duncan videos this question was sent in by Justyna
who lives in Poland the reason why I do not allow comments on my ask mr. Duncan
videos is so that questions are not left on them as there are so many videos now
it will be impossible to check them for new questions so I took the difficult
decision to block comments on them this does not mean that I do not want to hear
from you and you are more than welcome to leave comments under all my 4 lessons
as well as my main Duncan in China video channel there is also my Facebook page
too and of course I always welcome your questions and comments at my email
address mr. Duncan at Waimea com what are the differences between the words
make and do and how do we use them note to self don't forget to put the rubbish
out tomorrow morning before you leave
don't you hate it when technology answers you back cheeky thing this
question comes from a Liam who lives in the Ukrainian Republic of Crimea there
is a definite difference between these two words in that one refers to actions
where something is created or made make a pie make a hole make a video make
money although the last example has two meanings to create money or to earn
money the word do tends to be used when describing an action where something is
achieved do the laundry do your homework do some gardening do generally relates
to word that will be done or has been completed
however there are times when both can be used for example you can make a portrait
or you can do a portrait in this case one describes the work and the other
describes the result of the work in the past tense we did a portrait or we made
a portrait synonyms of make include build construct create compose craft and
put together the opposite of make is destroy some animal idioms believe it or
not there are many idioms in English relating to animals straight from the
horse's mouth to hear something or get information directly from a person who
is most involved or connected to the subject in hand I got this information
straight from the horse's mouth to work like a dog this means to work for very
little reward or to be treated badly in your job my boss makes me work like a
dog to be as happy as a pig in mud to feel content and satisfied with your
situation I'm as happy as a pig in mud the bee's knees something that is of a
high standard or quality this new TV is the bee's knees crocodile tears to cry
and shed tears without feeling any real emotion you pretend to cry a bull in a
china shop to rush into a situation without thinking it through or to be
careless dressed up like a dog's dinner a person who wears clothes that are over
stylish or unsuitable for their age he or she is dressed up like a dog's dinner
how do I understand the meaning of words while reading English books this
question was sent him by de l'année who comes from Sri Lanka but he's now
studying here in the UK with her husband well as far as improving your English
goes it all depends on your own level of English and how difficult the text is to
understand in the first place it is always tempting to avoid reading books
which have been written in a very simple way using basic English some English
students find them insulting and patronizing but the fact is you have to
start somewhere although this is not your situation
there is no shame in an adult reading books aimed at young children if they
provide the education needed I think the hardest part of learning a new language
for an adult is accepting the feeling of learning like a child but in fact
learning any new skill often starts with the most basic elements I always say
that everything starts with ABC the best way to learn is through grasping the
basics for your particular situation I would recommend that you buy or borrow a
dictionary that has been written in your own language and has the English
translation for each word placed alongside those listed these days
English translation dictionaries are available in a wide range of languages
it is an invaluable tool for improving your grasp of the language while
boosting your word power at the same time I hope this is helpful to you July
and a big hello to your husband the moolah I hope you both have a great time
here in the UK it's that time again
it's curious my mind on this planet it's here again the future they tried to stop
suppress bad and forbidden but this week's word is obnoxious this is a
negative word which describes a person who is hateful or has a cruel and cold
nature they are unbearable and detestable the word is often confused
with arrogant which means a person who shows up and likes to boast and brag so
that person would be arrogant and obnoxious they would be hated and
detested because they brag the opposite of obnoxious is nice another nice email
I have received a nice email from Romy who comes from Brazil but now lives in
Japan Romy enjoys watching my English videos especially the ones about
happiness and sadness and the ones about the human body the weather and the
variations within English I see from your email that you teach Spanish
English and Portuguese there in Japan
okay we get it thank you that must keep you very busy indeed good
luck with your work Romi and thank you for your special cheer for me
Viva mr. Duncan Viva English Viva all of you before I press the eject
button and leave you all again I would like to say a special hello to all my
new students including Carey Vieira Angelika Nina
Hector sareth Musa Zakia Carlos suffer at Hadassah Gloria and all the many many
others who have joined me here on YouTube and on my Facebook page too just
to let you know right now I'm preparing two new lessons one of which was films
during my recent holiday abroad where did I go all will be revealed in a not
too distant future that is all from me for this week I will see you all again
soon with some more of your questions and comments until then this is mr.
Duncan in England saying thank you but asking me and of
course Tatar for now what do you mean I'm
ignore some time I'm not obnoxious what do you mean obnoxious
no I'm not obnoxious when am I ever obnoxious never it's impossible so there
it was one of my ask mr. Duncan lessons and of course all of my lessons are
available still I have been making videos on YouTube teaching English for
almost 11 years it's true and all of my lessons are on the playlists under this
video so all of my playlists are under this video you can watch them all as
many times as you want you can watch them once or a million times if you feel
like it it's up to you I've had a question come through concerning jam
what is the difference between jam and marmalade that's a very good question
Jam is normally made with small fruit such as strawberries and raspberries and
plums or black currants or of course damsons
like mr. Steve's dams and Jam marmalade is normally made with oranges so
normally large fruit and quite often everything goes into the jam including
the outside of the fruit the actual peel of the fruit also goes into the jam so
marmalade is normally made with oranges or sometimes you can have lime marmalade
as well so marmalade is different from Jam back to the live chat because we
have a lot going on today wow so many people some people talking about the
differences between naturalist and naturist I will mention that once again
the differences are
naturalist is very interested in nature they love nature they are interested in
the wildlife naturalist and naturist is a person who is keen on being naked or
nude with other people quite often especially here in the UK I don't know
why but there are a lot of places where people can go to to be naked there are
beaches there are places I don't know why I've never done it myself I'm too
shy honestly live chat is very busy mr. Duncan you look the same as you did
seven years ago Thank You Aurora for that that is very kind of you to say we
will be talking about getting old later on mr. Steve will be here in
around about 12 minutes to say hello to you all and today we are talking about
many things we will be talking about the signs that you are getting old so mr.
Steve has compiled ten signs that you are getting old I think he's he's going
to make it humorous so don't worry it won't be depressing it won't be
upsetting it will be nice and fun and also we were talking about something
else because yesterday we met our new neighbors for the first time a very
awkward situation now in general social behavior activities involving people one
of the hardest and most stressful things you can ever do in your life is to meet
someone for the first time who you will be seeing many many times in the future
for example a new neighbor so when you meet someone for the first time
sometimes it can be very very stressful so that's something we will also be
talking about after 3 o'clock today so stressful situations
such as meeting someone for the first time maybe your new neighbor and that's
what we did yesterday we had to go round to our new neighbor and say hello we are
your neighbors can you imagine the look on their face when they realized that
they will be living next door to me can you believe would you like to live
next door to me is it a good idea last week by the way we were talking about
animal sounds do you remember that last week did you see last week's lesson for
those who missed last week's lesson here it is again in 25 seconds oh I think
last week I think that must have been the best live English lesson ever or
perhaps this week maybe this week is the best one ever who knows so there it was
just in case you missed it you can watch all of my live English
lessons on my youtube channel they are available and of course later you could
watch this again and don't forget later there will be
subtitles later on so you can watch this again as many times as you want and
there will be subtitles as well so as I just mentioned we were talking about
animal sounds last week and there are two that we missed off the list because
we ran out of time because mr. Steve loves talking so here are 2 animal
sounds so first of all we had this sound here it is
hiss hiss do you know which animals make this sound
now in fact there are many that make this sound quite a few in fact so there
it is hiss the sound is hiss so you could say that the the word actually
sounds like the sound itself hiss of course there are quite a few animals
that make this sound including snakes and also owls did you know that did you
know that owls also hiss some owls do hiss and cats yes cats also hiss when
they're angry so if a cat gets angry it will it will hiss also goose I didn't
know that I didn't know geese hissed I didn't know that
and finally Swan Swan I know that swans hiss and also they bite you as well
swans beautiful birds but they can be very violent birds as well so these are
animals that make a hissing noise hiss there it is and another one here squeak
squeak a very common animal sound many animals make this sound squeak animals
that make this sound include the mouse a mouse will squeak hamster hamster a
hamster will also squeak did you know that a rabbit can also squeak I didn't
know that I always thought I always thought that rabbits didn't make a sound
but apparently if they are scared or being hurt or attacked they will
actually squeak so I didn't know that I didn't know rabbits made a squeaking
sound rats also oh I don't like rats and also chinchilla chinchilla chinchilla is
looked like big rats don't they and finally guinea pig guinea pig a guinea
pig also makes a squeak so that's something we did last week with mr.
Steve but we did actually miss these out we didn't include these last week so
there they are hiss and squeak hiss and squeak the
floor talking of mr. Steve we are now going to have a look at another Jam
making video and this is part 2 and don't forget we have mr. Steve coming
live at 3 o'clock today so let's go back to mr. Steve in the kitchen making jam
so mr. Steve we seem to be at a very interesting stage of the process we're
cooking at the fruit I'm cooking the damsons here we go
they're simmering away nicely bubbling away there gently cooking we just need
to soften the fruit who would have thought that mr. Duncan's English show
would turn into a cookery show and we will be sharing your what viewers how to
make jam but there we go we are its cooking guide States got about another
need to cook it for about half an hour I've got two on the go here I've got two
sauces going here should have these aren't proper Jam making sauce pans but
they'll do so we've got about another 15 minutes to go while the fruit softens
that's very messy and then we'll come back to you when I add the sugar which
was the clues from last week's show so that's got to go in there when the fruit
is cooked so we'll see you in about 15 minutes mr. Duncan that's very nice and
also the word simmer if something simmers it means it cooks very slowly
without getting too hot that's right a low heat a simmer a very low heat it
means it's just bubbling away cooking very gently and you could say that is
somebody you can use that expression to describe someone's behavior if their
anger is simmering away it's bubbling something is bubbling away or simmering
so it's not boiling it's not too hot it's just cooking steadily just like mr.
Steve's damsons are right now
welcome back to making jam with mr. Steve and this is where we add the sugar
so here we go I've got to put three pounds of sugar in here slowly Bobby
shouldn't do it as quickly as that but
that was two pounds so I've got to add another pound
this is where it gets exciting there we go stir it more in probably a
professional cook would say that I've done that too quickly
so that's return that up a bit but not yet what do I have three pounds of sugar
to the other ones that a good stir look how messy getting in here already
you try to another pound of sugar into there
for 425 grams
at this moment the jam is what is is it completely cooked or do you have to cook
it for a further amount of time it's saying here add the sugar and stir and
boil rapidly but what happens at this point is all the stones start to come
out of the fruit there's one of the hard Stone's from the fruit and I will show
you a quick way of how to remove those stones later so when this is boiling
away we'll come back and I'll remove the stones using my quick method so mr.

and and I've noticed behind you there is some autumnal leaves let me put this
down yes yes because autumn is here do you do so mr. Steve what is your
favorite season spring you like spring I like spring because everything's
renewing everything's growing its you've got months and months of lovely weather
to look forward to and you just feel rejuvenated after the winter yes so
spring is sort of the season of birth isn't it and many people see autumn as
as the season out of death because everything dies everything goes very
bare and cold because winter is just around the corner talking of death
that's that's a lovely subject to talk about today I've got the say mr. Duncan
you put this behind me last week and I can't see any improvements to my
background it still looks a bit bare I thought you might have made a bit of an
effort this week and working on it right work in progress I've got my top team of
background designers working on your background at the moment so so it is it
is in progress I have a dozen people 12 people are now working on your
background there there is no expense no expense what so our expense spent I
would say judging by the back of this you've had that year as I've seen that
before I'm sure you've used that another videos I just expected more this week
but after last week saying you know I want better background I still haven't
got it and I remember last week mr. Steve
moving moving on because we only have another hour to go because last week we
were talking for so long we actually ran out of time do you remember what
happened yesterday because we went for our lovely meal yesterday ri-ight
yesterday yesterday I used my psychic power yesterday didn't I well that's
what you call it yes it was I was psychic yesterday everyone we were
talking about this last week now yesterday what happened yesterday
something rather strange happened didn't it well we went out for a meal and you
said let me guess using my psychic powers what the meal
will be on what the offer is today because we go to this particular cafe
restaurant and what you call it and they always have a couple of specials so they
they do special meals different every week and mr. Duncan wanted a guess
which was going to be the meal but I was using my psychic powers don't forget it
wasn't just a guess you're wrong there mr. Steve I was I was in touch with the
other side I was I was I was getting through to the other side and and the
spirit world was telling me that the special meal yesterday was going to be
stew and dumplings would you like to see some stewing dumplings because not
everyone has seen stew and you and dumpling there they are look at those oh
my goodness that makes me feel very hungry now stew you and dumping
dumplings so dumplings are are things that are made of suet which is a very
fatty material but they are absolutely delicious stew so stew is chopped meat
and vegetables in a very rich thick sauce oh my goodness look at that
so yesterday I used my psychic powers to guess that the special meal yesterday on
the menu at the copper kettle because Steve doesn't like mentioning it because
you always think someone's gonna come in and kidnappers don't you well no you
said you were worried about being kidnapped let's face it they only do
offer about six different meals so I think you had about a one in six chance
of getting that right I know you'd like to think it's psychic powers but stew is
a nice winter food stew because you put it all and it's lovely to cook because
you put it all in one big pot stick it in the oven leave it for a couple of
hours then you come back and it's ready you don't have to do anything else to it
it's a tie lovely meal and it was it was delicious but I still say that it was my
psychic power that I've inherited from my great grandmother because she was
psychic as well you see so that's what I think
anyway talking of food there are certain types of food that are delicious such as
stew and dumplings oh my goodness they are so delicious
they look lovely don't they I want to eat some now but also there are types of
food that we don't like and there is one particular type of food that we have in
common that we hate isn't there definitely it's food that looks or is
from the animal that was not it was killed and if they haven't done anything
to it so like crab for example yes lobster there it is there is a crap
now on the screen so the crab are went whenever they cook the crab or serve the
crab that they always keep it in one piece with the shell in the claws they
also do this with lobsters as well so lobsters and crabs when they cook them
and serve them they they just keep them as if as if the animal is still walking
around now I find that quite disturbing to be honest because I don't like to
recognize the animal I'm eating I do like eating meat but but I think crab is
one of those things that I can't eat because it looks like the animal so
quite often they will just serve it on the plate can you see here there is a
picture here so these are crabs that have been boiled and then they've just
been put on the plate for people to eat and I'm not a big fan of that I must
admit I'm I don't like the the thought of eating something that I can recognize
I mean could you imagine if you went into a restaurant and ordered a steak
and then they they came in with the whole cow and then they just put it on
the on the table in front of you and then you had to cut into this cow with
with with its cow face staring at you I couldn't do that so that's the reason
why I don't like crab and also the reason why I'm not a very big fan of
lobster as well because because the animal is still is still whole what do
you think mr. Steve no I don't like fish either when they've still got the heads
on oh you really do you remember thing do you remember mr. Steve do you
remember when you came to China to see me I wait we went for a meal and
and in China quite often they will serve the fish completely whole so they will
they will cook it they will take the insides out of course but the fish will
look as if it was still in the water swimming around so yes quite often they
would they would serve the fish with the face and the eyes everything and then
you would just stick your chopsticks into it so yes it's something I'm not a
big fan of of eating food that has a face I think that's the best way of
describing it so food that has a face it's not good is it
no and in the UK because we're very fond of our pets our pet dogs our pet cats
gerbils rabbits we keep a lot of pets in this country and so when we're suddenly
confronted with like for example the cows out of the back of here which mr.
Duncan has showed many photographs and videos of it's hard to think of eating
that animal afterwards when you've developed a bit of an affection for it
so I like to eat meat but I don't like to see any representation of the animal
that it came from so whole fish on the plate crabs and let's face it it's very
messy I have eaten crab I mean it's messy
you're gonna pull all the limbs off you gotta chew it you get covered in your
face some people like that of course perfectly acceptable but not me I
I could turn vegetarian you know it wasn't for the fact that meat is just so
delicious that is the problem though that the meat is delicious if if they
made meat tastes terrible if they really made it taste awful I would never eat it
again yeah so if they did that I wouldn't eat it but a lot of people are
now saying on the live chat such as Xena Xena says that is the reason why we are
vegetarians so I think Xena is already a vegetarian so you're thinking
about it mr. Steve but I have a feeling that you're not going to do it I could
live without it I mean I know we've got the teeth for eating meat and plants
omnivores I think is the is the scientific term for an animal that can
eat all different varieties of food and we are omnivores our teeth are capable
of eating plants and meats they're adapted to that that's what we've done
for hundreds of thousands of years but at the same time as we've become more
refined and more civilized you could say that we've got pets and dogs and cats
then there's that little twang of guilt when you eat meat and you know it's come
from a living being yes a moment for a moment in your mind you think oh my
goodness this this animal was walking around in the field a few days ago which
of course brings me onto another subject because at the back of our house there
there is a field and at the moment there are balls in the field but but over the
last two or three weeks the number of Bulls have been decreasing because they
are sending them off now to be slaughtered you know unfortunately so
it's not very nice it's not very pretty I must admit so originally there were
ten in the back of the house and then there were eight and now there are only
four balls left four left some of them have gone off to be already Oh talking
of talking of creatures okay talking of creatures we've got a plague a literally
a plague upon our house upon this area of ladybirds ladybirds and I've left a
window open upstairs I've never seen so many lay lady Birds lady Birds what do
they look like I tell you what they look like because I've trapped some in a jar
because they're all inside the bathroom I left the window open a fraction so
I'll show you don't know if you can see those in there ladybirds
oh my goodness and that's I'm going to put those out
later don't worry I'm not going to kill them but lady Birds or ladybugs as they
call in some countries they're all on the lid look look at that oh my goodness
there were so many of them I was actually talking about this earlier I
was talking about lady birds in fact I had I had a picture of a lady bird there
it is one of the lady birds that I took a picture of yesterday but now mr. Steve
mr. Steve has lots and lots of them in a jar there are hundreds and hundreds of
lady birds look at that and those are just a few of them that literally the
window any window in the house if you go to it right now there must be about
twenty or thirty lady Birds and they're all in the air I've never seen so many
ever before and for those who are worried for those who are worrying mr.
Steve will let the lady birds fly away after we have finished so don't worry I
hope there are some holes in the top of that jar I'll I'll just let some air in
there we go there we go that's it just let some air in we don't want we
don't want the lady birds suffocating live on air it's not that kind of video
we don't youtube youtube have got so sensitive now you see with everything so
we don't want we don't want to be accused of animal cruelty today no I'm
gonna let them out later that in that is one of my empty jam jars so I'm gonna be
careful that I don't put Jam inside that one because that would be interesting
Jam having lady birds in your in your jam is just freely on your on your bread
still plenty of protein plenty of protein yes you could yeah Ted if you
liked eating lady birds and cause some cultures to eat insects there's loads of
them out there you could probably I reckon there are thousands literally
thousands of them out there right now okay has it yes has it
Edith asks how can you catch so many lady Birds we're at the moment outside
the house there are hundreds and hundreds of lady Birds on the front of
the house the house is covered covered with lady birds at the moment because
they are all trying to find a place to to go to sleep for winter
winter is getting getting to that temperature we have had it before but
I've never seen so many I caught them by flicking them into the jam jar with with
it with a piece of cardboard I just sort of flipped them in and then I was quite
careful but there must have been about there's still about five or six left
upstairs crawling all over the bathroom window do you know one lady birds are
called in the United States what they called them ladybugs I think ladybugs
yes they are ladybugs in the USA and here in England they are corn later
birds don't know why lady Birds just the way it is it's just the way it is what
about male lady Birds if you're a man if you're a if you're a man Lady Bird it
must be very embarrassing because because you still call the lady bird
they should have they should have a pronoun that allows allows the man lady
bird to be identified as a man lady bird what do you think they all look a bit
feminine I don't think you can tell a female from a male lady bird so you know
I don't think they know although that's just as well as suppose I suppose it's
just as well it might cause cause severe psychological harm later honor I'm not
sure about that anyway yesterday we did something special didn't we what did we
do yesterday mr. Steve we went around to see oh the new neighbors the new know
you talking about the new neighbor it is official we have new neighbors living in
snore now we have new neighbors living right next door to us and yesterday now
in the afternoon we spent the whole afternoon in the kitchen rehearsing
meeting the new neighbors we were so nervous weren't we I don't know why we
were so nervous but we I think it's because we wanted to make a good
impression is that right uh yes I think that's fair to say
because it's very difficult isn't it when you meet someone for the first time
especially someone that you are going to be very familiar with such as a new
neighbor then then you you want to make a good
impression there are lots
of situations of course where you need to make a good impression for the first
time your your first appearance when you meet someone can you think of any other
situations mr. Steve well one of the most difficult ones is if you're if
you're going out with somebody and you've been seeing them for a while and
then you go to meet their parents so if you are dating someone dating somebody
yes and then you are invited to go and see the parents now that's always a
stressful event more so I think for the man I think if you know if you've got a
relationship with a man and a woman and the the girl is taking her man to meet
the parents then it's very nervous for the man to
meet the parents because you know what's the father going to be like and it's
strange actually I've seen many many examples of and stories of friends male
friends who've been going out with a girl dating a girl they meet the parents
and the father has really been very nasty to them boo because fathers and
daughters you know it's a difficult relationship for the father to let go of
the daughter I think the father is always protective
very protective fathers tend to be very protective of their daughter I think so
yes and it's all sorts of things must be going over in the mind of the father and
it's it's a difficult one so they've tend to be very judgemental against the
their at their daughters Malaya what do you mean judgemental what does that mean
well it means that they're going to be looking at them very carefully looking
for flaws looking for things that they don't like in that person criticizing
them because they don't think they're good enough for their daughter
that's quite quite a common one looking for faults well they're looking ready to
see if that man can look after their daughter yes I serve I'd a good life for
them financially emotionally everything so there
you seem to know so much about this it's it's as if you you've lived all of these
different lives you seem to have you've seemed to have a lot of knowledge there
but I think that is a very stressful situation meeting the parents of your
loved one so if you are dating and you meet the parents for the first time it
can be very nerve-wracking so nerve-wracking it is a very stressful
situation in fact I've just had something come through in the live chat
just a moment yes Ari - Ari - says when meeting new people some of us might be
shy retiring bashful like me I'm very shy and bashful modest demure yet
diffident and humble also nervous
I think nervous is the the big one we always feel nervous when we meet someone
for the first time are there any other situations where you might be nervous
meeting someone for the first time a job interview vetting your potential new
boss I'll tell you something else as well which is is is key and I've never
learnt it he's remembering people's name oh that makes a good impression so if
you can remember people's names and I can't remember the names of our
neighbors we met them yesterday they told us lots of times but I wasn't
caught yes I'd remember one of them are I remember the man's name but not the
woman but yes if you meet somebody there is a trick to it and you're supposed to
just whenever they say their name you're supposed to repeat it straight away back
to them and then keep repeating it and that's supposed to help with going in
here so yes so what you do it's so imagine I'm meeting someone and I say my
name is Duncan and then they gay oh they go they say hello Duncan I'm pleased to
meet you Duncan so Duncan what do you do for a living Duncan Oh Duncan how long
have you lived here Oh Duncan do you ever go cycling or
running Duncan do you enjoy walking so that that imprints the
in your brain probably a bit too much that they might thinking a bit weird if
you said it that many times but you get the idea yes yes Duncan I do you'll get
the gist of it yes yes yes so that's very important when you're meeting
people for the first time that you remember their names and and
professionals you hear this story a lot politicians people in the media they
always tend to remember people's names and if you remember somebody's name it's
very flattering if so if you've met somebody a long time ago and they meet
you again and they say hello and they say your name and you've only met them
once before that's very impressive and you you remember that and you're
impressed by that person so I think it's very important I've never mastered it
I'm very bad at names and I want to get better people have known for years this
is very embarrassing people I have literally known at work for 15 years I
will meet them because we meet about three or four times a year and I won't
remember their name I'll just say hello how are you
and I don't remember their name and it's so annoying Oh to have a list do you
know what I think I said I think forgetting things like that can
sometimes be a sign of getting old oh right ah which brings us nicely zoom
a feature that we are going to do now 10 things or 10 signs that you are
getting old now I haven't seen your list so I have no idea what you have put
there I have absolutely no idea so anything can happen during the next few
moments I have no idea what mr. Steve has written down so mr. Steve has 10
signs 10 indications that you are getting old so please mr. Steve give us
the first sign I'm getting old and give us the first sign because of course no
one likes to get old we don't like to do it but it
is a fact of life and hopefully mr. Steve has some humorous things to share
so two humorous here is the first sign that you are getting old
have you already havee already asked p if you already mentioned this before us
before I came on No ah right so could this be a good point
to ask for other people to send in their suggestions we're gonna have time and
Isis we stay on until tomorrow morning we might need a 12 hour livestream for
that your site so so we have 10 on your list so I think we'll stick with that
for now to be honest right so the that I've got
10 so I shall do a countdown do the first one please the first one is signs
that you are getting old you need a fire extinguisher ready when you light the
candles on your birthday cake so what do you mean by that you need a fire
extinguisher ready when you light the candles on your birthday cake it means
that you've got so many candles on your birthday cake that when you light them
it could turn into a big blaze and set fire to the house so have a fire
extinguisher handy when you're getting older because there are so many candles
you might start a fire or of course you could use a bucket of water you could
have a bucket of water next to the cake because there are so many candles
burning it might be a fire hazard fire hazard or the fibra great fire
brigade or a firetruck I need mr. Duncan's getting to that point now where
I need to have a fire extinguisher ready when I like the candles on his birthday
cake you know for a moment for a moment for a moment I thought you were going to
tell us your age but we might save that for another time but but let's just say
that that if mr. Steve was having a birthday he would have a lot of candles
on the cake and we might need a bucket of water ready to throw on the
cake just in case the candles set fire to
everything in the room because there are so many candles on the cake that's a
good one I like that one okay number two please okay number two which is in fact
number nine because I'm counting down here oh I see ten so these are in it
these are in a very particular order hmm okay they're so num okay just to be
awkward number nine okay number nine on the
countdown sign that you are getting old you catch yourself breathing with your
mouth open there we go I'm not I'm not actually sure if that's
a sign of old age it might be a sign of quite a few things so when you're
getting old your mouth tends to hang open I've actually started doing this
when I'm in front of the television I've caught myself just breathing with my
mouth just open a bit and I doesn't know old people do that I'm not old
shut your mouth and breathe through your nose so no that's a sign you're getting
old there is actually a terrible expression in English we describe
someone who is who is not very intelligent or or doesn't have much
class or is or is uneducated you can call them a mouth breather mouth
breather it's a it's a horrible expression but it
is a it is a current expression that people use to describe a person who is
not very intelligent or or is uneducated they call them a mouth breather I think
because the expression on their face is sort of but that's happened to me BAPS
I'm going senile and losing my intelligence and I'm starting to breathe
with my mouth open maybe mr. Steve is losing his marbles
losing my marbles losing my mind going senile dementia setting in
okay who would expect it at 26 Oh none glad see you mr. Duncan but I know
you're making a funny face into the camera number 8 please number 8 sign
that you are getting older you like gardening and or walking suddenly you
like gardening suddenly you like going oh I like going for a long walk and when
you go for a long walk what do you see lots of elderly people because all the
young people are paragliding or or scuba diving or skiing or doing something
exciting or they're doing anything but gardening you don't see young people
gardening normally not very often you go past houses uuuugh quite often and I
think this is true I'm not generalizing here but I think it's true that if you
go past houses or Gardens you will quite often see elderly people in the gardener
people over a certain age maybe over 50 or over 60 they are in the garden doing
little jobs little chores in the garden so yeah that might be a sign of all day
that's a sign the signage you had to do it before but now you like doing it
that's the difference mm-hmm do you like gardening I think you
know the answer to that I do you it in the garden this morning you I couldn't I
couldn't tear you away from the garden mr. Steve was actually in the garden
this morning I had to drag him I had to drag him into the house so we could set
up the cameras in here he loves gardening so much so so maybe you are
right maybe gardening may be the desire to do lots of gardening is a sign of
getting old I need to be very fit to garden but there you go I think it's a
sign you want another one number seven is number seven signs that
you are getting older you go to more and more
funeral my goodness you go to because as you get older people that you knew
parents other elderly people friends they all start dying off they do they
all start dying off my my mother I've always mentioned my mother every
week but anybody that you know of a certain age particularly they start
getting their 70s and their eighties but I found this now even in my birthday
then you find that people start dying and when and when they start dying and
they're the same age as you that's when things start to get a little worrying so
so what you have to hope and I think this is probably a good point to make it
this juncture this part of the lesson is that is that people around you are dying
and maybe in the back of your mind in your in your mind you are thinking will
I be the next one well that yes that does cross your mind but I've been I've
noticed every year I go to more and more funerals sad fact of life life and death
people start dying in the older you get the more people that you know start
dying so that's a sign that you're getting older but in all fairness your
mother is approaching 90 so yes no friends left you know that all died is
going in that direction that's what I'm trying to say so your mother is in that
direction so so I suppose when you get to when you are in your 80s I suppose
people around you are going to start disappearing that they are going to
start dying away it starts ramping up at that age but it starts when you're in
your 50s I've had two I know two friends who generated to me and though they had
one fat one was younger died you know but there you go let's cheer things up
you just you just don't know I don't know I always say I always say live
every day as if it's your last because one day you will be right live every day
to you so I could be doing something else right
now could I rather than this I don't know I think
this is great I think this is a great way to spend your lifespan
I think so right shake myself out of that number six number six sign that you
are getting older you spend more time asleep than awake this is this is almost
connected to the last one and now I always think that old people elderly
people sleep a lot because they're rehearsing for death that's what they're
doing they're actually practicing they're practicing being dead what does
it feel like yes when you're younger you've got lots of energy I've noticed
that now as I'm I'm getting you know I'm gonna rot elderly but I'm getting on a
starting to get older that I tend to sleep more I need more sleep so that's a
sign but in all fairness you you've always been like this now I've known you
for nearly 30 years and and to be honest you've always been
a bit like that you always fall asleep once you've done a bit of work
once you've exerted yourself for 10 or 15 minutes you always you always drop
off so I don't think that's that that's anything to do with old age as far as
you're concerned because that's what you do anyway thanks a lot mr. Duncan I
should be exhausted after after this show I tell you I shall I just have to
go in lie down for an hour and rest recuperate really charge my batteries I
think that's a good point that you make though I think yes elderly people they
do spend a lot more time asleep though their mouths open I wonder what they're
dreaming about I had no idea probably heaven but they probably
wouldn't remember anyway they're probably thinking a lot about heaven
people if so we sound like we're ageist no wait no this is a frank discussion
this is a direct discussion we are talking about something it's very hard
to talk about so we are we are doing it in a light-hearted way a fun way it's a
very English thing to do to make one of things that are that are not
pleasant I think it's a very English thing so so this is a kind of cultural
thing really we do like to joke about things that are very horrible we do like
to joke about them because it makes us feel better about it so number 5 number
5 sign that you are getting older hair starts appearing in places you've never
had it before oh now this is one that I can definitely definitely because I
might show you something in a minute would you like to see a part of my body
that's very hairy boo please and no mr. Duncan who who wants to see a part of my
body that used to be smooth but is now Harry would you like to see it I will
show you if you want if I have ten people who say yes I will show you a
part of my body that used to be smooth but is now hairy
I think you need donations for that yes donations on the super Chuck I need 5
donations if I get 5 donations on the super chat I will show you a part of my
body that used to be smooth but is now hairy
what about sharing them a part of your body that used to be hairy but is now
smooth oh that's easy exactly that's my head that's what
happens that's the opposite so the hair disappears from one area and it
reappears somewhere else there come on we need we need five we need five super
check donations if we get five super check donations I will show you I'm not
kidding I'm not lying I will show you a part of my body that is now hairy and
that'll be the last time we're ever on air this might be the point where
YouTube just just decides that that I shouldn't be here anymore and they just
they just cut me off so come on we need some air you need
some super chats so yes hey disappears from one area and
reappears somewhere else so we need super chats we need we need a live of
these come on get these super chats if you have five of them I will show you my
Harry it don't if that happens to women the
women lose hair in places and then it reappears somewhere else oh is that just
a thing for men I think women can get certain types of hair growth sometimes
on the face I think is well but but women can lose their hair as well there
is an illness called alopecia I think that there's a skin disease but if you
get it on your head it it causes the hair to actually fall out to actually
fall out and in you lose your hair so I think that can affect women and and men
as well that's not old age that's just like a condition but yes hair appearing
in places you never had it before and of course I'm not pre-empting what you're
about to say because maybe this is already on your list but but the hair
also changes color we can diet of course you can change the color of your hair to
make it look dark I suppose yeah you can dye it number four ye not D ie number
four number four sign that you are getting older you buy a recliner or a
reclining sofa I don't know what what do you mean by recline right it's those
SETI's or sofas in your living room that there's a little button at the side and
lo and behold the whole seat raises up your legs are out straight and your
lying back and it's wonderfully comfortable and you I'm not having one
of those you say that's that's just for people elderly people and then you go
into a store where they sell sofas and you sit on one of these recliners and
you press the button and go back and go ah yes wait well we are showing though
we have there might be lots of people who don't understand recliners so so on
the recliner the back of the chair goes down and the front comes up supporting
your legs you go back like this so it's wonderful so yes that's in the back the
back goes down and the front comes up you're lying as if you're on a bed
almost like on a bed but you don't have to go upstairs it's there in your living
room franchise assessor button yes okay calm down
goodness me you know you don't buy the chance own a recliner do you there may
be one somewhere in the house think so I'm getting the feeling goodness me I
think get a room they're wonderful just get one who cares
if it's a sign of old age franceska franceska says I love recliners yes
that's fantastic we seem to have a reclining chair fan club here oh so
Francisca loves reclining chairs as well I'm not going to make any comments about
Francesca's age but I know that mr. Steve really does like his recliner
especially on a Saturday when he's been into town for his afternoon treat and he
comes back home and he falls asleep don't you every time I get in that seat
pushing the button Ouiser I'm going go back like this and within seconds I'm
asleep that's a very good representation that's a very good impression of a
reclining chair by the way I'm very impressed I think next week we will have
a photograph I will take a photograph of mr. Steve reclining reclined the chair
and we will show it next week well I bet you can't wait for that all I want is a
fridge in the side with some beer in it and I'll be very happy number three
number three sign we're getting near to the top one
sign that you are getting older you catch sight of yourself in a mirror
that's an odd angle and for a second you don't know who it is that that is very
true you catch sight of yourself like in a shop or something like that and you
see a reflection of yourself at a strange angle because you normally see
yourself face on and from the back you Theo who's that old person oh it's me
Atlas the worst one I think there's something worse there's something worse
than that mr. Steve it's when you wake up in the morning and you go into
the bathroom and you look at yourself in the bathroom first thing in the morning
just after getting out of bed you look in the mirror and you you can't believe
what you see you you see this strange old worn-out looking person staring back
and you think that can't be me this mirror is not giving me a true
representation of my appearance I'm pretty sure of it do I really look that
bad there is nothing worse than looking in the mirror first thing in the morning
especially if you have a few years behind you the other thing is if someone
takes out a photograph of you and you you look at that photograph and you
think oh oh dear you know the lights not very flattering not like today the
lights very flattering so obviously I you look quite youthful but yes if you
catch sight of yourself particularly from the back at an odd angle you don't
recognize that person that can be quite scary I think so I think yes if you are
if you if you are not used to looking in the mirror at certain times of the day
it can be very shocking especially first thing in the morning and sometimes you
will notice things as well you will notice changes especially on your face
you might find a new wrinkle on your face or a new lying yeah your face and
and then for the rest of the day you are you are so depressed about it all you
can think about is the new line on your face and you think that's it that's it
my life is over game over game over man game over mmm that's from aliens that
might be the most useless piece of information that I've had today one of
my favorite films aliens or alien - okay though aliens you know your babbling
babbling is another sign of old age by the way yes my memories still all right
are you sure about that right well if we had need anybody
suggesting any signs of getting old yet if we had we've had hair changing color
so your hair goes from your hair goes from dark has to to gray or sometimes
white I have some white hairs on my body I've got some on my head but also in
other places as well i-i've now I now have white hairs I'm not saying we're by
the way no one no one has made a donation no one wants to see the place
where I have hair where I didn't have hair in the past no one so no one wants
to see that so so my hairy thing will not be shown today I'm not sorry about
that maybe if you paid the viewers yes maybe that way round I might have to
start giving out money to get people to join in that's after I have to bribe
people or blackmail people into into getting getting them to join in have
things become that bad where I have to pay you to watch me goodness gracious I
can't believe it so where are we now are we number two are up to number two
number two these are meant to be sort of light-hearted not not too serious yes I
must admit your your list has really cheered me up mr. Steve well you asked
me to do it right number two sign that you could be getting older you have to
get up in the night to pee and it takes a while Oh God now I must be honest I I
really I really do feel this one literally I literally feel this one yes
as you get older especially men I think this affects men more than women what
what do you think I think so yes because I think women lose the ability to to
hold you in after they have babies that's quite common I think your room is
men I love that word urine pee urine water
I won't use any rude ones don't say piss I won't say oh you've just said it
mister dump whatever you do don't say piss because I'm going to see if you
apparently if you say piss YouTube will book your wife they will disconnect you
so don't don't whatever you do mr. Steve don't it's a
good job there's a ten minute delay before this goes out you've got time to
to delete that phrase but yes it is a sign men I think it affects men more
than women because of anatomical features in a man that can cause
retention of urine in the bladder yes and can and that means you have to get
up to you when you go to the toilet as you get older it's quite common for a
man not to empty his bladder completely and therefore it feels that very quickly
and you wake up in the night need you to go to that well I say some people
obviously not me you've already admitted to it but I don't get that problem why I
have nothing to be ashamed of are I know that lots of men is they get older they
they sometimes have to go to the toilet a lot at night yeah sometimes they they
can't go even if they try but it feels as if they need to go to the toilet so
so with men as there is we get hold that we really do suffer now women often
think that that women say we have the hardest part but I tell you now as men
get older we we have lots of problems with with our with our pipes with our
waterworks lots of things start going wrong so don't worry as men we have to
suffer later and I'm suffering at the moment it's it's terrible you you get a
bit night you have to go to the toilet then you get back in bed and then ten
minutes later you have to get up again came a minute what what's that all about
it's about getting old it is and that's what we're talking about today getting
old do we have any we want to lighten the mood here a little bit so let's have
a look do we have any new emails oh yes we have we have
some pictures I hope I hope these are photographs of of your drawings and
nothing else jewelry please don't send me pictures of
your hairy parts thank you very much okay some pictures of hairy parts you
don't have to repeat it mr. Steve no I was out that was a question oh I see
Hey oh great oh my goodness oh thank you very all this is great we've had it
we've had a super email come through here unfortunately I'm not sure who it
is because the the name is in it looks like Russian but I think it's red carve
red cough Akaya red cough kaya has sent a brilliant picture of mr. Duncan that's
me and also mr. Steve as well so let's have a look shall we
we will go on the main camera to have a look oh that is absolutely I absolutely
love that so there is mr. Duncan mr. Duncan on the on the left and mr. Steve
I must admit mr. Steve just does look like mr. Steve let's do a comparison
shall we here we go I can't see it by the way so there is there is me and
there is mr. Steve can you see mr. Steve there I think that really does look like
you that is amazing I love that picture of mr. Steve I think I'm gonna use that
picture every week now to show mr. Steve's appearance I can't see it
unfortunately I'll look at it afterwards don't come can show I can't see the
screen from here I can only see you and I haven't got a monitor I love that so
much I Brian I think that that is a brilliant representation of mr. Steve
thank you very much I will look at it later
and there's me I think you've made me look very old in that picture but that
that picture of mr. Steve is brilliant they've got the hair perfect well
there's nothing to draw when it comes to hair there's nothing to draw in fact I
think they were actually erasing it I think
they'd probably put too much and then they raised it with a little rubber a
little eraser this is a life choice is it you've chosen that okay I've chosen
this look so there is another another picture let's have another one shall we
said see if there are any more so thank you very much funds to to route route
cough SIA kiya aur kya no it's brilliant that's a pretty brilliant picture we are
not offended by that picture it's brilliant we love it Maria has sent a
drawing hello mr. Duncan a mr. Steve the best
teachers in the world thank you did you want me but what tell what have
you been doing people have been drawing us they are enjoying this oh wow oh this
is this is brilliant actually this looks a bit like one of your drawings mr.
Steve so here is here is mr. Duncan I'm mr. Steve you couldn't you can see
me I hope that's not too bright I'll wait there let's let's just have to see
I can't see you can't see that's another sign of old age there we go oh I love
that that's brilliant so you can see mr. Duncan that's me with
my with my yellow smiley face t-shirt and also mr. Steve is well is standing
behind me I I think that's a brilliant drawing that is so good
so we've got some there's some good artists out there in YouTube land where
I was right now there are some very talented people i I do love mr. Steve
there mr. Steve looks a bit ill I can't wait to see this later this this is just
hilarious I I love that thank you very much for your representation there I
think you've captured mr. Steve you've captured mr. Steve very well thank God
for that number one sign we'll wait there a second who was that from let me
just did I mention who that was from I don't
think I did let's just make sure that we do a name check there Maria Maria
Gonzalez thank you very much that is that is brilliant
I love your picture we look we look quite quite young in your picture thank
you very much for for flattering us I'm very pleased to see that Tomic says poor
mr. Steve there is such a terrible background behind him and there is no
monitor for him to see what is going on this is true you can see now why the
budget here is so low because mr. Steve can't even see what's going on no dead
leaves behind me and the big clock by the way it's now five minutes away from
the end of the show can you believe it i i've been draw i've been drawing
pictures of you with my pencil here oh i see let's have a look at your drawing
there mr. steve before we go we haven't done the number one we'll do that in a
minute we will do that and then we're going to finish with mr. Steve's jam
making the final part of mr. Steve's jam makings right I've done a little drawing
of mr. Duncan do you want to see it yes please okay there you go
oh my what okay what's that on the top of my head by the way what is that
that's a piece of hair you often when I don't know whether you probably won't
know this you probably haven't seen it but when mr. Duncan cuts his hair he
cuts his own hair he often leaves because he's doing it himself he can't
see what's what he's doing and he often leaves straggly bits so that a curly bit
so that that is what we call a stray hair a stray leaves these stray hairs
and I have to cut them off for him with a pair of scissors here we go that shoot
what about that's you with a hat on there we go okay oh that's brilliant
that's very good I like my glasses there that I look a bit like John Lennon there
I've got John Lennon glasses on there I like that that took me about 10 seconds
it looks like it you wasted five seconds there doing that
I'm no artist believe me I can only draw stick men that was very good I did enjoy
that very much thank you very much mr. Steve for your representation of me okay
so we have the number one sign of getting old that them so in your opinion
this is number one and this is at the top at the top sign that you're getting
old when someone guesses your age and takes ten years off so as not to offend
you it still sounds hola I like that one you like that one I I think that that is
very good for example if you are I don't know if you are 80 yes and and or 85 and
then you say to someone how old do you think I am and they say oh you don't
look much older than 17 it's still always you know that's not a compliment
you are still saying that I look old so if you are 85 and someone says that you
only looks 70 it isn't a compliment if you in your 30 it's just as bad when
you're 40 and someone says over you and you look 30 that still feels good still
old if you're 60 and someone says oh you only look 50 not so good as you say when
you're 80 and someone says you look 70 it's all over who cares really look 70
80 or 90 doesn't matter then this strange though if so if you are if you
are still trying to look young and you are of a certain age maybe in your 70s
or 80s but you are still trying to keep your youth you might be very
disappointed because no one no one is going to say that you look 30 no one is
going to say that you look like a teenager anymore even if you go to a
plastic surgeon and have lots of plastic surgery on your face so you look like
like this I can hear you but I can't hear that's what you can do pull your
face about like that and we give it like Joan Rivers who
remembers Joan Rivers now she was only as I'll she was a
famous comedian and she used to always have plastic surgery on her face and in
the end her face looked like it looked like someone had grabbed the skin on the
side of her face and pulled it right back
and everything was like that all the time all the time would you have it have
plastic surgery mr. Steve would you ever have laser surgery to get rid of the
wrinkles on your face what do you mean the wrinkles on my face
did you hear that did you hear what he just said
if you mean if I got wrinkles would I have them removed or would you have
would you have plastic surgery no I don't think I would know I might I do
have quite a lot of sort of laughter lines haha how did you get them that's a
joke very funny mr. Duncan very funny I don't think they're laughter lines I
think I think they're they're lying that they're lines that you've had from going
like that it's grimacing lines for that line I was a very happy child and at
some point it all went wrong but no I've got laughter line so I'm you know I
would consider having them removed but I don't think I need to really quite
frankly laughter lines better than having frowns
so yes I wouldn't no I wouldn't I might have them lasered off I wouldn't because
I I just feel very squeamish I don't like I don't like needles or knives or
or being put under anaesthetic when they put you to sleep I don't like that at
all I don't I don't want to be put to sleep
thank you very much all right so so that's the reason why I would never have
plastic surgery so everything on my face will be hanging down I will look really
really really old a bit like the thumbnail on today's live stream have
you seen the thumbnail on my live stream it's brilliant it's me
but in about 30 years time so I yes it took me a long time to make that so
there we go so we've talked about a lot of things today shall we end on a nice
thing though shall we end on a nice note why not
now we've we've been busy in the kitchen this week making jam I I was busy in the
kitchen so before we go we will come back I think we're going to sample some
of the jam it's well we are actually going to have some of the jam in a
moment but here it is the final part of mr. Steve's
jam making
and we are back with mr. Steeves jam-making extravaganza and and what
exactly is going on here mr. Stephen I this moment as you can see in here it's
cooking away now we're got to remove can you see these all these little stones
have come to the top and we've got to remove them all there's a lot in there
you saw how many damsons are were we well we don't have to remove them but I
like to remove them because you don't want to crunch into one of those I've
got a look at a quick method using this chip basket and I'm just going to pour
it into there and separate the stones out from the jam in that way now it gets
very messy so stand back mr. Duncan while I attempt all that through there
can we see the message making there we go and I don't want to get any splashes
because this is very hot so I'll get my spoon where's my spoon there it is
I want to keep the skenes in as well because the skins I've got a lot of a
goodness baby so all you want to actually do all you're trying to do here
mr. Steve is remove the hard stones that's it and look you can see them all
separating out there I'm trying to force the skin through the bottom because I
want to keep the skins in as much the skin as I can
there we go look a few escaped they always do but that doesn't matter
because they're going to give it a second pass through there we go all the
stones are gone we put the fruit back in because we want to keep the fruit the
skin look at that plain healthy
there's no clean way of making jams it's very messy
who'da thought that making jam would be so complicated I thought it was just
boil it and put it into the jars but no apparently it's a lot more complicated
than that okay mr. Steve will do the same thing
you did just and we will rejoin mr. Steve later when if I'm not mistaken we
will be putting the jam into the jars am i right we were indeed we were just
going to boil it up now and then I'm going to use this thermometer because
that tells me when the jam is ready is it the right setting point so we'll come
back to that later so when we say set we mean the jam
starts to go solid so if something sets if something is setting or if it has set
it means it has gone solid
okay this is the fun part now isn't it mr. Steve this is the part we've all
been waiting for we are now going to put the jam into the jar yes the motto is
telling us that the jam is ready so now I've been sterilizing the jam jars in
the oven because we don't want to get any contamination so I think so these
these jars are completely cleaned so mr. Steve is used heat to sterilize the jars
and now it really gets messy now mr. Duncan because I have to pour it into
there first I'll sterilize that as well there we go
well that's very hot and very messy so here we go it pour it into the jars
I love the noise it makes it more than that one on a counter there nevermind
mr. Duncan is getting covered in red hot Jam these are old jam jars that we did
buy that had jamming them so I'm just reusing them
so what we have to do now is wait for the jam to cool down and the lids will
actually make a small clicking noise so you will know that the jam is sealed in
the jars one pot of homemade damson jam I've got to clean this mess up now are
you going to help me mr. Duncan it's on the floor it's on the countertop it's
all out the walls it's everywhere I'm not making any next year this is the
last time so there it is the finished product we have some lovely delicious
fresh homemade dams and jam
the backdrop next week or even a seat I'll tell you my legs are aching then
you can have some but it's all for me mr. Duncan all for me I want some of the
German mm excuse me excuse me I said excuse me I would like
some can I have some can I have this piece so on Joey let him have some shall
we this this is for me this is and this looks delicious is actually for me but
never mind so what is it like let's try someone mr. Steeves jam and see what
it's like manaphy oh say something I have a mouthful of mouth is full of
bread and jam that is delicious I know a lot of people have commented you've said
to me that about the amount of sugar that went into making the jam well you
need to add a lot of sugar into jam because it's half the jam is fruit and
ha jam is made of half fruit and half sugar approximately that's why you need
to add a lot of sugar in and all jams got lots of sugar
many people have been complaining they've been saying mr. Duncan we can't
believe that mr. Steve has used so much sugar that's how you make jam so jam we
can also call jam preserve as well preserve yes because it preserves the
fruit with the heat and the sugar hmm you're enjoying that aren't you mr.
Duncan I'm enjoying this more than I should be I think I don't think he
deserves it because I've got a poor backdrop and my legs are aching somebody
commented last week didn't they mr. Duncan that they said why don't you give
mr. Steve something to sit on and I agree because my calves are aching
because I've been standing here for an hour
and so I think next week I want a seat and I want something prettier behind me
mmm no absolutely gorgeous good I've got I made about 14 jars of jam and of all I
had left over from last year about 10 jars now my mother will probably end up
having about five or six of them over the year I'll probably give some away to
neighbors so that'll leave us with about 10 jars but at last the winter
everyone's saying that they couldn't hear as I think I've forgot to put the
sound on for a moment but then I did I did put the sound on so I hope you can
hear us now sorry about that I was so excited you see I was so excited to try
some of mr. Steve's jam I couldn't wait to go over there I was really really
excited and I must say it is absolutely delicious gorgeous and we had a lot of
fun making the jam didn't we we did but it's time for me to go I think it is
sadly mr. Steve has to say goodbye in fact we are running overtime today we
are we are actually two hours and twelve minutes we are still here but we will be
going very soon I'll go now shall I do you want me to go now we will see you
later mr. Steve thank you very much for your list of signs that we are getting
old of course you are only as old as you feel that's what they say apparently so
we will see you next week mr. Steve goodbye have a lovely weekend and I'll
see you next week mr. Duncan I will see you next week mr. Steve what can I take
with me I wanna take something with me yes this looks expensive oh it is I'm
going to take this with me it's mine bye bye mr. Steve sometimes mr. Steve is
very very strange I think so so today we've been talking about a lot of
subjects including getting old I'm going to leave today
with some thoughts some thoughts on getting old I hope I leave you with
something positive I will see you next Sunday from 2 p.m. UK time I've just
realised that I've got Jam all over my face I'm very sorry about that
III was a little bit Messy there so let's finish with some positive thoughts
on getting old I will see you next week this is mr. duncan in the birthplace of
English saying thanks for following me today thanks for watching I will see you
next week at 2 p.m. UK time and of course thanks to everyone who has got
involved and who has been involved today and ta ta for now.
with each passing year we all become a little older there is nothing we can do to stop this from
happening it is inevitable unavoidable unstoppable it is to be expected if
there is one thing I have noticed about life it's that the older you get the
faster time seems to pass you by when I was a young boy time seemed to go by so
slowly the hours seemed like days the days seemed like weeks and the months
seemed like years and the years seemed like forever youth makes fools of us all
it feels as if we will live forever time seems endless
eternity is our playground of course this is not true
once you pass a certain age time begins to speed up the years seem like months
the months seem like weeks the weeks seem like days you find yourself asking
again and again what happened this week where did the year go is it really
December again
of course it's not all doom and gloom there is a bright side to all this age
need not be a hindrance or barrier time could also be its own reward
with age comes knowledge and wisdom you are able to cope with things much better
those little surprises that life tends to throw at you become more bearable
perhaps it is more about your own attitude to the passing of time rather
than the occurrence itself there are many things that exist in this world
that can be described as a cliche some might say that life is one big cliche we
all know the story already we know how it starts and we certainly know how it
ends but it is up to you to make the big chunk in the middle the way you want it to be.
After all life is what you make it. 8-)
