Havent you were in the big apple to meet the man whos travelling the World Without leaving new york. Hands up, eyes wide open. You dont want to miss it. And rajan heads to spain to take a ride on europes newest, fastest and tallest Roller Coaster. This week, im in northern thailand. Its mountainous landscape and lush jungles are an Ideal Environment for the asian elephant. The animal is seen as the symbol of thailand, and around 3000 live in these wild forests. The country also has a captive Elephant Population of almost 4000. Controversially, some of them work in the tourist industry. Caring for all of these elephants is a hugejob, particularly if the animal needs specialist medical attention. Ive come to lampang to meet some of the vets who are attempting this mammoth task. When it was opened in 1993, this was the worlds first elephant hospital. And since then, theyve treated over 4000 elephants. Im here to meet some of them. The hospital aims to provide care for any sick or injured elephant in thailand. What kind of patients do you have . We have all kinds of illnesses, sicknesses, knife wounds, gunshot wounds. Some have diarrhoea, constipation, cataracts. Some have serious cancer, and tumours. The most difficult case, the victims of landmines. Good morning. Morning. How are you . Im fine. Good to see you. Dr kay takes me to meet some of her patients on her morning round. Hello lots of adults. Wow so in the morning, you have to go and check up on the elephants themselves . Yes, every morning. Wow. She is huge yes. Whats her name . Her name motala. Motala . Yes. She about 57 years old. And what happened to her foot . She stepped on landmine in burma. And after that, the owner bring motala here, and donate here. So shes one of the permanent residents . Yes. The hospital has five permanent residents who need round the clock care. The rest of the patients have been brought here by their owners for shorter term medical treatment and operations. For motala, each day starts with her Prosthetic Leg being fitted, so she can walk out for breakfast. Wow, so this is the Prosthetic Leg, can i see it . Whoa, so big it weighs a good, at least, 15 kilograms. Very heavy indeed. So herfoot will go in here. And these are all formed specifically for the elephants themselves, so theyre all different. Theyre just putting some Talcum Powder to help with the dryness, and of course, the comfort. A layer of Talcum Powder on the inside as well. In the Early Morning and late afternoon, when the sun isnt too hot, motala will walk out for a few hours. There you go. Its on. Motala walk along. Adult females weigh just under three tonnes on average. Shes coming to get her breakfast. So the prosthetic is needed to give vital relief to her other three legs, which are under enormous pressure. How long did it take her to get used to the Prosthetic Leg . Five to seven days. Then she gets used to it . Yes. So quick learners. She put quite a lot of weight on that. Checking over the elephants each day is part of the hospital routine. Wow. This ones a little bit smaller. Hey mosha was also injured bya landmine, and came here when she was just seven months old. Shes now 11. Hi. 0oh youve got a big nose and what are you looking for . She had the wound inside. Dr kay has cared for her since the day she arrived. Are you smiling at me . Mosha is good. Healthy . Yes. Shes been eating her greens. Havent you very friendly. This one belongs to motala, the older one. And thats mosha. Because shes growing up. Shes still young. Thats true, so every so often you have to get a new one. Getting taller. Thats right. Softer inside. Soraida started the hospital after seeing elephants die because there was no way to treat them. So i told myself, ok, thats it. If no one is going to do it, im going to do it myself. There should be a place where elephants can be treated, because theres no elephant hospital. The hospital is funded by donations and treatment is provided for free. The procedures are similar to what youd see in a human hospital. Finished. That was quick. Except on a giant scale. This Elephant Bunce has a stomach problem. So needs an iv drip to make sure she gets all the vitamins she needs. Dealing with the elephant being so high, theyve had to get this platform up here. And the iv drip goes all the way up to the top there. It uses that gravity to push the medicine through the pipes. So one of the only soft spots of the elephant is actually on the ear, orjust behind the ear. So the iv drip will go right there. After medicine, get treaties tourists can come here to see the elephants in their recuperation areas, but there are none of the shows and rides you might find at elephant camps elsewhere in thailand. Some have called for a ban on using these revered animals in the tourist industry, but soraida tells me that could also create problems. To ban them, then we have to have the solution, where would these elephants be . You cant take 4500 Elephants Back into the wild. How are we going to keep them in natural surroundings and in a way to earn some money in order to treat them well . Shes calling for a new law to protect thailands huge Elephant Population. They use the elephants for riding, under hot sun, on hot country roads, all day long. Some camps dont even have shades for the elephants. So im asking the government to please set the rules. If they really prefer to have the riding, would it be like five minutes, right . Do you feed them along the way when they get hungry . If they stop, they shouldnt be beating them to walk. Things like that. The focus here is on working with elephant owners in the community to help any animal that needs medical attention. A baby they also have a nursery section, and im fortunate enough to be able to see a newborn. This is definitely something special. Hello hello, mamma so how old is the baby . Nine days. Nine days, it is nine days. Whats the babys name . Her name mina. Mina. Yes. Wow, so small. These, i recognise, are banana flowers, and dr kay tells me that they feed them on banana flowers, because it helps to produce milk, giving her vitamins and minerals. And she was just suckling. There she is. Look. Hello, curious one. Oh, my god. Her trunk is so small. Its humbling to see the connection dr kay has with these animals as she gives baby mina a checkup. Its amazing to see elephants like these that would otherwise have died in the wild, actually thrive here in the hospital. Spending time with dr kay, and soraida, and learning the ins and outs of what goes on here has been an absolutely amazing experience that i wont forget any time soon. And if you want to see more of the elephant sanctuary, keep watching until the end of the show, and well tell you when you can see our special 360 degree film of the amazing work going on there. Well, stay with us, because coming up. Shall we have a quick go, then . Yeah, lets go for it. Lets do it. Rajan heads to spain to test drive europes fastest ever Roller Coaster.

Well, to end this week, 2017 marks 200 years since the first ever Roller Coaster was opened in paris. Since then, technology has made them faster, higher, longer, and of course, scarier. Rajan has volunteered to try out the latest ride in spains fuerteventura. Its been a regularfixture on the costa dorado since 1995 as part of the biggest Family Resort in southern europe. Porta ventura is a well established theme park, spains biggest in fact. And they get about 4 million visitors here a year. But now theyre building something that they say will take it to a different level, and that will give us one of the most amazing experiences in the world. Ive come to ferrari land, licensed by the famous car brand, just as the finishing touches are being put to the site days before the launch. There are 11 rides here in total, but one in particular is hogging the limelight as the main attraction. A Velocity Accelerator Ride called red force. Two years in the making, its now europes tallest and fastest ever Roller Coaster. 112 metres high and a speed of 180 kph. Thats 0 180 in five seconds flat. You need an attraction where the sensation is similar to formula 1. We thought about the Roller Coaster to have the g forces in acceleration, and also to make something, lets say, strong. Ive got to admit, it was slightly unnerving to see the ride still being tested behind luis as we talked. And then i found out i was to be the first member of the public ever to try out red force. A human crash test dummy, without the crash bit, of course. How much testing goes on before it is open to the public . Around 6000. Times . Cycles. 6000 cycles . 0k. Thankfully, i have this veteran of nearly 1300 different Roller Coasters in 21 Different Countries as company. What i love now, its the thrill of the chase. Its finding those coasters that are in obscure places, i go off to places like china, to find Something Different that you havent done before and other people havent gone to. I went to dubai recently, and i did 25 theme parks in six days. This is more than your average hobby. Marcus spends up to two months a year in theme parks in chase of thrills. And now advises on how to maximise Roller Coaster excitement. Theres the whole absolute escapism. Forget every stress of normal, daily life, and youre letting a machine like this take control of your destiny. Its a particular kind of pleasure, though, isnt it . Because its a short, sharp burst of real. Sharp burst of thrill. Now, is there an addictive element to this . I would say its totally addictive. So its back to the launch area to get a dose of this legal high. And some last minute advice from the expert. Put your head to there. Back, yeah . Yeah, thats it. And keep my eyes open . If you can open this, yes. 0k. I cant guarantee that. Shall we go for it, then . Yeah, yeah, yeah, lets go for it. Lets do it. I was going to get the best views from the front. You feel the force on your face as well. Right. Theres a loose bolt there, should that be. Hands up, eyes wide open. You dont want to miss it. Ok, ill try my best. Ill try my best. See if you can tell the difference. Here we go. Between the seasoned coaster and the rookie tv presenter. Now, i knew you wouldnt be able to. Incredible. What the hell . whoa tears going down my face, that was intense. Mind blowing there are moments when you think, this thing has lost control, and you are going to be swung out of it at any time. The g force before you arrive just at the bit where it goes vertical is incredible. And yes, i actually must admit i feared for my life. I guess thats the point of this ride, that you are genuinely scared out of your wits. And i was. It was definitely thumbs up from the expert. This is definitely a top ten coaster. High intensity, the height, itjust has everything going for it to make it an extraordinary coaster. I want to go again thats all the time we have for this week, but coming up on next weeks travel show. Krista heads to the mountains of palencia in Northern Spain for a spot of wolf watching.

But from me, henry golding, little mina and the rest of The Travel Show team here in thailand, its goodbye. It is going to turn it may pay tonight with A Touch Of Frost on the way. For most of us it will not be so way. For most of us it will not be so cold, but in some rural areas that will be a sharp frost, especially in the glens of scotland. There is a fair bit of cloud out there, not too thick in places, and a few showers working down across Northern England into east anglia and clipping into london during the early hours of the morning, but for the most part it will be clear with starry skies. Five degrees in london. As low as minus eight in the glens of scotland, which is cold for this time of year. The plants may struggle little bit. The weather is looking beautiful. Tomorrow morning will be a sharp start. Temperatures 34 will be a sharp start. Temperatures 3 4 degrees, but for some of us there will be no cloud in the sky. A beautiful start to the working week. Some rain are getting into Western Parts of scotland, not a lot, just roads and droughts. It will be cloudy and heres the across the North Western part of the uk. It will not be so bad across wales, but cold, single figures in the north. 0n cold, single figures in the north. On tuesday night into wednesday there will be High Pressure across there will be High Pressure across the uk, especially in the site. This is where we will see clear skies. By day time, temperatures of 12 14 degrees, but the morning will be quite cold across the south. 0n thursday december chose might pick up thursday december chose might pick upa thursday december chose might pick up a little bit, but it is looking like it will only be a subtle difference for thursday, so a bit of cloud and some sunshine. So just a little bit of rain, turning warmer later into the week and it will be cold at night, possibly down to minus eight degrees tonight in the glens of scotland. This is bbc news.
