00:00:09.590 --> 00:00:11.580
It's budget day in London, April 22nd,

6
00:00:11.580 --> 00:00:13.300
and today I have one mission:

7
00:00:13.300 --> 00:00:14.830
which is to get in the background

8
00:00:14.830 --> 00:00:17.290
of as many news camera shots as possible.

9
00:00:17.290 --> 00:00:19.480
There are film crews swarming across the capital.

10
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:21.800
I've got an Oyster card, a London A to Z...

11
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:24.120
There is just one problem.

00:00:24.120 --> 00:00:25.700
(LAUGHS)

13
00:00:25.700 --> 00:00:28.160
I, however, don't need an Oyster card

14
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:29.690
because I've got this:

15
00:00:29.690 --> 00:00:31.600
the Mattmobile.

16
00:00:31.600 --> 00:00:33.040
It's ten o'clock, game's started,

17
00:00:33.040 --> 00:00:35.640
we're kind of stuck in traffic...

How you guys doing up there?

22
00:00:42.700 --> 00:00:43.670
We're all right!

23
00:00:43.670 --> 00:00:45.110
Okay, I can barely hear you,

24
00:00:45.110 --> 00:00:46.320
where do I need to go?

25
00:00:46.320 --> 00:00:47.810
Head across to Westminster.

26
00:00:47.810 --> 00:00:49.900
Right, Westminster.

27
00:00:49.900 --> 00:00:52.220
They've got a camera crew there,

28
00:00:52.220 --> 00:00:54.210
and they're just catching MPs...

29
00:00:54.210 --> 00:00:55.750
They're catching MPs. Parliament Green!

30
00:00:55.750 --> 00:00:58.630
Okay, thanks Toni, bye bye. Thank you!

228
00:00:58.630 --> 00:01:00.110
Let's go.

32
00:01:00.110 --> 00:01:02.620
Tom'll be heading into the city now

33
00:01:02.620 --> 00:01:05.550
on the Underground, probably gaining on us.

34
00:01:05.550 --> 00:01:07.680
But we heard from the command centre earlier

35
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:10.240
that one of the tube lines is closed.

36
00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:12.700
'Because of industrial action, there is no service

37
00:01:12.700 --> 00:01:15.580
'in either direction on the Victoria Line.'

38
00:01:15.580 --> 00:01:17.530
Fantastic! The Victoria line's on strike.

39
00:01:17.530 --> 00:01:19.570
How can one tube line go on strike?

00:01:21.570 --> 00:01:24.400
The windows look like grey panes on the outside, don't they?

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:26.260
'I had a plan. And it involved

43
00:01:26.260 --> 00:01:28.630
'getting my face behind Philip Schofield.'

44
00:01:28.630 --> 00:01:32.570
Yeah. There's a lamp post near a circle-y bit, isn't there?

45
00:01:32.570 --> 00:01:35.030
If I climb that then I should be able to get on it.

(TUBE DOORS CLOSE)

47
00:01:38.520 --> 00:01:40.700
Somewhere round here is that bit of green

48
00:01:40.700 --> 00:01:43.350
that they always interview the politicians on.

49
00:01:43.350 --> 00:01:45.440
Meanwhile, Matt Gray...

50
00:01:45.440 --> 00:01:47.760
Matt Gray is stuck somewhere in traffic,

51
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:49.900
somewhere in London.

52
00:01:49.900 --> 00:01:53.420
The magic of London is its road system, which is

53
00:01:53.420 --> 00:01:55.840
built on the Middle Ages(!)

54
00:01:55.840 --> 00:01:57.560
It's actually just a statue

55
00:01:57.560 --> 00:02:00.900
with serieses of traffic lights dotted everywhere

56
00:02:00.900 --> 00:02:04.150
and you just have to guess!

57
00:02:04.150 --> 00:02:07.080
I'm kind of wishing I had my Oyster card now.

'The next station is Westminster.'

59
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:11.680
'Hello. Are you OK?'

60
00:02:11.680 --> 00:02:15.620
Er, yeah, we are heading towards Blackfriars Bridge

61
00:02:15.620 --> 00:02:19.710
There were a couple of roads closed that we needed, so...

62
00:02:19.710 --> 00:02:22.310
Right. It might be worth leaving that

63
00:02:22.310 --> 00:02:23.940
and trying to find somewhere to park

64
00:02:23.940 --> 00:02:26.030
and heading to Downing Street.

80
00:02:57.930 --> 00:03:02.020
OK! Right, can you see the policeman and the street?

81
00:03:02.020 --> 00:03:05.270
I'm basically behind the BBC setup right now.

82
00:03:05.270 --> 00:03:06.940
You're behind the BBC one? Stay there because

83
00:03:06.940 --> 00:03:09.080
they will be going back to that after VT.

I was on camera dancing behind BBC news,

100
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:40.380
so that's 20 points.

101
00:03:40.380 --> 00:03:42.190
Right, I'm going to have to go,

102
00:03:42.190 --> 00:03:45.110

They've moved their cameras

00:03:57.510 --> 00:03:58.860
so they're angling up at people,

behind Parliament, missing the street.

112
00:04:00.390 --> 00:04:03.600
