Finally tonight, these are a pretty familiar sight these days.
If you've ever injured your knee, ankle or any part of your leg really,
the chances are that you'll have been given one of these, a crutch,
or an NHS walking stick.
But some of these are not quite what they seem.
Over in Marlton, high above Huddersfield,
they have a rather musical use for them.
Danny Carpenter has been investigating.
When it comes to musical [C] instruments, there are no limits to [G] man's imagination.
This, for example, is a didgeridoo.
This is a contrabass clarinet.
And [N] this
This is a National Health Service crutch.
So the didgeridoo
Didgerididn't.
The big clarinet thingy
[C#] [N] Not bad.
The National Health Service crutch [F] Who [C] knew?
Just for the record, this is not a flute in disguise.
It [N] really is a walking stick.
Well, we [G#] do allow for crutches, [B]
so
If [C] you were a flute player as well, this would be perfect for you.
I [B] was suspicious when the holes were different [D] sizes, so
And I wonder whether you could actually sort of include a trombone into it
by [F#] moving the stick up and down.
Clearly, the thing to do is [G#] take the stick for a walk.
It does turn heads.
But for Simeon, it was a natural step in his musical career.
[C#] I saw this walking stick and instantly it looked like a flute.
It looked like it's got the holes almost in the right place.
And [A] so it was just finding someone who could develop that instrument for me.
[N] No problem, we can do that.
Make a flute.
That's easy.
Seriously, what do you have to do to turn a crutch into a flute?
Well, you've got a tube, so you essentially have a flute.
If you can have a tube and a column of eight, you can make it.
He [F] is,
[C] [Gm] after all, a serious [F] musician.
Just not that serious.
Danny Carpenter, BBC North, [D#] Marston.
Right, Harry, imagine [G] James Galway at the Royal Albin Hall.
Forget all that, listen to this.
Two, three.
HE COUGHS
Ooh!
Ooh!
Very good.
Tell you what.
I was good in the dressing room, wasn't I?
I'll be your support actor.
[D#]
Thank you.
Is that not a funny thing?
[F#] It was.
No.
Like you're doing a kiss, like you're having a kiss.
Like you're kissing!
