0:01:20 > 0:01:24- Well, it is 5:30am. - I know. Oh, I feel a bit sick.

0:01:24 > 0:01:26I think I might have a bit of indigestion.

0:01:26 > 0:01:28Well, we have crossed seven time zones.

0:01:28 > 0:01:30I hate it when my body clock is all out of sync!

0:01:30 > 0:01:32Why did you make me get up so early?

0:01:32 > 0:01:34Look, when you are trying to get over jet lag,

0:01:34 > 0:01:38the best thing to do is get out in the natural light and keep active.

0:01:38 > 0:01:41- Whoa...these guys haven't got jet lag.- Whoa.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43What is going on with them, voice-over man?

0:01:43 > 0:01:46HE SNORES

0:01:46 > 0:01:48Oi, voice-over man, wake up!

0:01:48 > 0:01:50You need to tell us what is going on.

0:01:50 > 0:01:52Wha...? Um...yes! I'm wide awake now!

0:01:52 > 0:01:55And, by the looks of things, so are this lot!

0:01:55 > 0:01:59Older people all over China come to parks and squares like this one

0:01:59 > 0:02:02really early to shake the cobwebs away,

0:02:02 > 0:02:07meet up with their pals and take part in a lot of fun activities.

0:02:07 > 0:02:10Can you imagine your grandad painting calligraphy on the ground,

0:02:10 > 0:02:15or Granny exercising with a sword at 5:30 in the morning?

0:02:15 > 0:02:18This is a martial art called t'ai chi,

0:02:18 > 0:02:21and many people believe that it keeps you healthy

0:02:21 > 0:02:24by unblocking stuff in your body that might be making you ill,

0:02:24 > 0:02:28and maybe it can help cure your jet lag.

0:02:28 > 0:02:29Chi for two?

0:02:29 > 0:02:32Oh, good, I've been looking for my inner chi.

0:02:32 > 0:02:33Let's go and have a go.

0:02:33 > 0:02:36Oh, straight into a really serious bend.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42TRANQUIL MUSIC PLAYS

0:02:44 > 0:02:45What an amazing start to your day.

0:02:50 > 0:02:52I feel better already.

0:02:53 > 0:02:55- I don't really know what to do. - Everything has stopped.

0:02:55 > 0:02:57Yeah, we have been stood like this for a while.

0:02:57 > 0:02:59- Shall we shuffle off? - Yeah.

0:03:01 > 0:03:03Oi! Where are you going?

0:03:03 > 0:03:06Plenty of early-morning activities to do yet.

0:03:06 > 0:03:09A bit of traditional Chinese waist drum dancing is in order.

0:03:09 > 0:03:11CHIMES RING

0:03:16 > 0:03:18Waist drums were originally used by soldiers

0:03:18 > 0:03:22to warn of attacks by angry enemies, and are now used in festivities,

0:03:22 > 0:03:25but can also be irritating alarm clocks!

0:03:25 > 0:03:28This would wake you up before going to work every morning, wouldn't it?

0:03:28 > 0:03:30You know I said I've got a headache...?

0:03:32 > 0:03:34- CHEERING - Well done, ladies.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36SHE SPEAKS IN OWN LANGUAGE

0:03:36 > 0:03:38THEY CHEER

0:03:38 > 0:03:40Hello!

0:03:40 > 0:03:42Your turn.

0:03:42 > 0:03:43Uh... Oh, look over there!

0:03:45 > 0:03:47Third and final wake-up call.

0:03:47 > 0:03:50Chinese fans are viewed as good luck charms

0:03:50 > 0:03:52and expressions of generosity.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55Let's hope the judges are generous with their scores in...

0:03:57 > 0:03:59..with Ed and Naomi.

0:04:01 > 0:04:02NAOMI GIGGLES

0:04:02 > 0:04:04She is laughing at us - is that a good thing?

0:04:07 > 0:04:09Someone has just done some early-morning shopping behind us.

0:04:09 > 0:04:11NAOMI LAUGHS

0:04:13 > 0:04:15I bet you are annoyingly good at this.

0:04:15 > 0:04:17I am enjoying myself, I must admit.

0:04:17 > 0:04:19This is a lot more complicated than it looks.

0:04:19 > 0:04:20Oh.

0:04:20 > 0:04:23THEY CHEER

0:04:23 > 0:04:25Oh, xiexie.

0:04:25 > 0:04:29Let's find out who the judge is the biggest FAN of.

0:04:29 > 0:04:31For Naomi, it is...

0:04:33 > 0:04:35And for Ed, it's...

0:04:36 > 0:04:39Two?! I got up at 4:30 in the morning for this!

0:04:39 > 0:04:41That is worth three points alone.

0:04:41 > 0:04:42It's quite generous, really.

0:04:42 > 0:04:45You just have to keep coming here at 5:30 every morning.

0:04:45 > 0:04:47Keep practising!

0:04:47 > 0:04:50It's going to cost me a lot in airfares.

0:04:51 > 0:04:53- Hello!- Hello, everybody.

0:04:53 > 0:04:54Welcome to...

0:04:56 > 0:05:00Today, we are going to be making something that is so easy.

0:05:00 > 0:05:01Chinese...

0:05:01 > 0:05:04That's right, Chinese calligraphy.

0:05:06 > 0:05:08Calligraphy.

0:05:08 > 0:05:09It's a mixture of painting

0:05:09 > 0:05:12and writing at the same time.

0:05:12 > 0:05:15Which, as we all know, will be so easy.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19It is so easy, to write and understand.

0:05:19 > 0:05:23For instance, this says, "Dog tractor shoes."

0:05:26 > 0:05:29Or another way of translating it might be,

0:05:29 > 0:05:31"It doesn't matter how deep the water is

0:05:31 > 0:05:34"as long as there is a dragon in it."

0:05:34 > 0:05:37Translation is so easy.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40So let's make our own cally graffy!

0:05:40 > 0:05:43Yes, let's make our own CALLIGRAPHY.

0:05:43 > 0:05:46I am going to write "flower".

0:05:46 > 0:05:47And I am going to write "sun".

0:05:47 > 0:05:49With this.

0:05:49 > 0:05:51It is a calligraphy mop brush...thing

0:05:51 > 0:05:53that we all have at home.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59- Is... Is that really Chinese calligraphy?- Yes.

0:05:59 > 0:06:02I like thin lines best. Watch.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05My favourites are the thick lines.

0:06:05 > 0:06:09Did you know there is over 50,000 characters in cally graffy?

0:06:09 > 0:06:11- I mean, calligraphy. - I did know that, Ed.

0:06:11 > 0:06:13Name them, then.

0:06:13 > 0:06:16As you can see, with this gentleman here in the park,

0:06:16 > 0:06:18it is so easy.

0:06:18 > 0:06:20It is so easy when you get someone to do it for you.

0:06:24 > 0:06:25Just... Just...

0:06:25 > 0:06:28- This...is easy!- So easy.

0:06:28 > 0:06:29Yes, this says "forest".

0:06:29 > 0:06:30Says "forest",

0:06:30 > 0:06:32in Chinese cally graffy!

0:06:50 > 0:06:53This may look like your average ancient castle,

0:06:53 > 0:06:56built by a Japanese ruler called...

0:06:56 > 0:06:57..in 1583,

0:06:57 > 0:07:00but all is not as it seems.

0:07:00 > 0:07:03Osaka Castle has been destroyed and rebuilt

0:07:03 > 0:07:06not once, not twice,

0:07:06 > 0:07:08but three times!

0:07:08 > 0:07:12This modern 1931 version even contains a lift,

0:07:12 > 0:07:15three underground floors, a gold tearoom, a museum...

0:07:15 > 0:07:19Oh, hang on a minute, a gold tearoom?!

0:07:19 > 0:07:21You two better find out more.

0:07:21 > 0:07:24DRAMATIC VOICE: Ed and Cel, you have 36 seconds

0:07:24 > 0:07:27to find out as much as you can about Osaka Castle!

0:07:27 > 0:07:29Ed, you have Atobe.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Cel, you have Aoki.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37Whoever finds out that most facts is the winner.

0:07:37 > 0:07:41San, ni, ichi, ikimasu!

0:07:43 > 0:07:45- Oh...- So, if this castle...

0:07:45 > 0:07:47Sorry, I think I startled you there.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51If this castle was built in 1931, when was the original castle built?

0:07:51 > 0:07:53TRANSLATION: 1593.

0:07:53 > 0:07:56How many visitors does the castle get each year?

0:07:56 > 0:07:58TRANSLATION: Well, last year, we got 2.3 million visitors,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00which is quite a lot, isn't it?

0:08:00 > 0:08:03So, when was the first castle destroyed?

0:08:03 > 0:08:05TRANSLATION: 1615.

0:08:05 > 0:08:07How tall is the castle?

0:08:07 > 0:08:11TRANSLATION: Well, it's 54.8 metres high, which is very high, so it is.

0:08:11 > 0:08:13And what happened to the second castle?

0:08:13 > 0:08:15TRANSLATION: Scary weather! Boom! Lightning.

0:08:15 > 0:08:17- Really?- Yes.

0:08:17 > 0:08:19ALARM SOUNDS

0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Nice. Arigato! - Aye, nae bother!

0:08:21 > 0:08:24There is not going to be any lightning today, is there?

0:08:24 > 0:08:25TRANSLATION: Um, maybe...

0:08:25 > 0:08:27Boom! Lightning!

0:08:27 > 0:08:29The person who found out the most facts is...

0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Ed!- Yes!

0:08:32 > 0:08:35And you get to take the lift to the top of the castle.

0:08:35 > 0:08:38Cel, you are taking the stairs.

0:08:38 > 0:08:39Oh...

0:08:39 > 0:08:41You'd better tie your laces, Cel,

0:08:41 > 0:08:44this castle has got eight floors of stairs to climb.

0:08:44 > 0:08:46Ed knows where they are.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48Stairs are that way, Cel. Don't take too long.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53Is this an uplifting job, or does it have its ups and downs?

0:08:53 > 0:08:54These helmets are awesome.

0:08:54 > 0:08:56Now, I wonder if they will let me try them on.

0:08:56 > 0:08:58I love a lift, me.

0:08:58 > 0:09:00- Wow, heavy.- Heavy.- Yeah.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02Ooh! Hello.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04Ah, look at that.

0:09:04 > 0:09:07And I'm not even out of breath. Unlike Cel!

0:09:07 > 0:09:10So, behind me is the infamous golden tearoom.

0:09:10 > 0:09:12Now, it is not actually real gold, and that is a reconstruction

0:09:12 > 0:09:14of what the original tearoom would have looked like.

0:09:14 > 0:09:17If you ask me, though, great place to have a cup of tea.

0:09:17 > 0:09:18Just the one sugar, please.

0:09:18 > 0:09:20Imagine being on some stairs now.

0:09:20 > 0:09:21Ooh.

0:09:21 > 0:09:24How cool is this? Miniature battle scene. Super cool!

0:09:24 > 0:09:27Should probably go and find Ed. He is missing out.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31- Ah! All right, Ed? - Oh, there you are.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33I was wondering where you got to. How was the stairs?

0:09:33 > 0:09:34They were really good, actually!

0:09:34 > 0:09:36Got to see the whole of Osaka Castle,

0:09:36 > 0:09:38but this view, by the way, beautiful.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40Amazing, isn't it? I've been soaking it up.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43Can't seem to find this golden tearoom, though.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45The golden tearoom? That was floor...three!

0:09:45 > 0:09:48A bit of the way down. Fantastic stuff, mate.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50- You want to see it, did you say? - Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- It's closing soon, pal, you want to get your skates on.- What?!

0:09:52 > 0:09:54No, no, I've got to see the golden tearoom!

0:09:54 > 0:09:57- I mean, it is a golden tearoom! - I know.

0:09:57 > 0:09:59- Made of gold! - Floor three! That way!

0:09:59 > 0:10:01I'll see you at the bottom of the stairs!

0:10:01 > 0:10:03But it wasn't real gold, Ed! It's not real gold, it's...!

0:10:05 > 0:10:07Gold - what it does to some people, hey?

0:10:07 > 0:10:08HE TUTS

0:10:10 > 0:10:14I don't get it. You are Isaac Newton. Isaac Newton!

0:10:14 > 0:10:17You are supposed to be finding out about gravity.

0:10:17 > 0:10:21You know, ever since that apple landed on your head.

0:10:21 > 0:10:23It didn't land on my head.

0:10:23 > 0:10:26I simply saw it fall from a tree.

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Anyway, gravity is boring.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31Today, I am all about alchemy.

0:10:31 > 0:10:34How to turn base metals like brass and bronze

0:10:34 > 0:10:36into pure gold.

0:10:36 > 0:10:39If I can just find the philosopher's stone.

0:10:39 > 0:10:42Oh, that's all right, I've got that on DVD.

0:10:42 > 0:10:44No, not Harry Potter.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47The philosopher's stone is a mystery compound

0:10:47 > 0:10:50that could turn this lead paperweight

0:10:50 > 0:10:51into pure gold.

0:10:51 > 0:10:54I would have thought that Granny Smith landing on your head

0:10:54 > 0:10:55would have put you off apples.

0:10:55 > 0:10:56Will you stop saying that?!

0:10:56 > 0:10:58If you keep saying it,

0:10:58 > 0:11:00people are going to believe it in hundreds of years' time!

0:11:00 > 0:11:01Hardly!

0:11:01 > 0:11:03Besides, gold is useless.

0:11:03 > 0:11:06Why don't you turn it into something better?

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- WHISPERS:- Like cake.

0:11:08 > 0:11:10Well, I suppose I could give it a try.

0:11:10 > 0:11:13No, the point is gold is rare.

0:11:13 > 0:11:15Doesn't exactly grow on trees.

0:11:15 > 0:11:18Well, it kind of does. On the eucalyptus tree.

0:11:18 > 0:11:21Well, in it, actually.

0:11:21 > 0:11:24A tiny bit of gold can be found in its leaves, so there.

0:11:24 > 0:11:29All right, gold doesn't exactly grow in the...sea.

0:11:29 > 0:11:32Well, the world's oceans do contain about 20 million tonnes of gold,

0:11:32 > 0:11:36and there is gold in human blood.

0:11:36 > 0:11:38About 0.2 milligrams.

0:11:38 > 0:11:42So you would need 5,000 people to make one gram of gold.

0:11:42 > 0:11:44Which is fine...

0:11:44 > 0:11:46but I've only got three friends.

0:11:46 > 0:11:47And two of them are mice.

0:11:47 > 0:11:49MOUSE SQUEAKS

0:11:49 > 0:11:50What?

0:11:50 > 0:11:52You consider yourself more of an acquaintance?

0:11:52 > 0:11:54Oh.

0:11:54 > 0:11:57Anyway, I am trying to work.

0:11:57 > 0:11:59Ugh, why doesn't this work?!

0:11:59 > 0:12:00Should have read Harry Potter.

0:12:04 > 0:12:05Gold!

0:12:05 > 0:12:08An apple made of pure gold!

0:12:08 > 0:12:10Woohoo!

0:12:15 > 0:12:18See, now you are the man who had an apple land on his head!

0:12:18 > 0:12:20Ooh!

0:12:20 > 0:12:23I'm off to see if I can change this for a sandwich.

0:12:35 > 0:12:37"It's New Year's Eve in Oga,

0:12:37 > 0:12:41"and we're about to witness a very particular custom.

0:12:41 > 0:12:43Why are we doing this bit, and not actual children?

0:12:43 > 0:12:45< They were all too scared.

0:12:45 > 0:12:47Oh, right.

0:12:47 > 0:12:48What?

0:12:48 > 0:12:50Did he say they were all too scared?

0:12:50 > 0:12:53Well, what I've heard is there is this tradition, right, in Oga,

0:12:53 > 0:12:56where, on New Year's Eve, locals get dressed up

0:12:56 > 0:12:58as these legendary monsters called Namahage

0:12:58 > 0:13:02and burst into people's homes, searching for misbehaving children.

0:13:02 > 0:13:05But...scary in a good way? Yeah?

0:13:05 > 0:13:08I think we're about to find out.

0:13:08 > 0:13:10# One way or another

0:13:10 > 0:13:12# We're gonna find out

0:13:12 > 0:13:14# Cos I've heard that they're really, really scary

0:13:14 > 0:13:16# They're called Namahage

0:13:16 > 0:13:18# We're gonna see them

0:15:45 > 0:15:47Oh, ha-ha, yes!

0:15:47 > 0:15:48What are you looking at?

0:15:48 > 0:15:51Oh, it is just pictures of things with faces in them.

0:15:51 > 0:15:53Here, have a look at that.

0:15:53 > 0:15:55That is a thing that looks like a face!

0:15:55 > 0:15:56It's good, isn't it?

0:15:56 > 0:15:58You know, I once saw a piece of bacon that looked like Beyonce.

0:15:58 > 0:16:03- Earlier, I saw a piece of melon with my face in it.- No!- Yeah!

0:16:03 > 0:16:07- Have a look at this!- That looks so much like you.- And that's not all.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Over there, there's some fruit and veg with your face in it.- Really?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12Yeah.

0:16:12 > 0:16:13Oh.

0:16:14 > 0:16:17You've never looked better, Ed.

0:16:17 > 0:16:19But if you did want to see some professional food carving,

0:16:19 > 0:16:21then you're in the right place.

0:16:21 > 0:16:25Wan Hertz has been making beautiful food out for over 30 years

0:16:25 > 0:16:29and teaches this royal tradition, which started over 700 years ago.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33Even those flowers are made from veg.

0:16:33 > 0:16:37This table decoration is known in Thailand as Kae-Sa-Luk.

0:16:37 > 0:16:39I think you guys might need some luck

0:16:39 > 0:16:41if you want to master this tradition.

0:16:41 > 0:16:44How long would it take you to carve something like this beautiful

0:16:44 > 0:16:46All Over The Place Asia watermelon?

0:16:46 > 0:16:51- It's one hour.- An hour?- Wow! - Could you teach us how to do this?

0:16:51 > 0:16:54- Yes. And we have one space to teach one person.- One space.

0:16:54 > 0:16:57- Oh.- Only one of us can do it. - Well, it should be me, then.

0:16:57 > 0:16:59- No. I think it should be me.- OK. You choose this one. It's a carrot.

0:16:59 > 0:17:03- OK. Short straws. Or short carrots.- Bring it on.

0:17:06 > 0:17:07- Yes!- Oh, what?!

0:17:07 > 0:17:10Asia's most intricate food.

0:17:10 > 0:17:14France's toughest critic. He is better than you.

0:17:14 > 0:17:16It's Rene Mangetout.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Pomme de terre.

0:17:18 > 0:17:20I, Rene Mangetout,

0:17:20 > 0:17:23am about to set you the biggest challenge of your lives.

0:17:23 > 0:17:28You must make a beautiful, intricate piece of carved veg.

0:17:28 > 0:17:33- Do you know your melon from your mangetout? Melon?- No.

0:17:34 > 0:17:37Mate. This is a melon, isn't it? This.

0:17:37 > 0:17:39Oh. Who are they?

0:17:41 > 0:17:43- Students.- Oh.

0:17:44 > 0:17:50Ze carving will begin. In, un, deux, neuf, cinq!

0:17:51 > 0:17:54Lauren creates an outline of her design

0:17:54 > 0:17:56before she starts to cut around it.

0:17:56 > 0:18:00What I have to do is get the knife underneath.

0:18:00 > 0:18:02Remember, children.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05If you want to try this at home you must get your sharpest knife...

0:18:05 > 0:18:09No, no! Can I just say, don't touch sharp knives.

0:18:09 > 0:18:12Only do anything like this if you've got a proper professional around.

0:18:12 > 0:18:17Or zat! Did you know that the tomato is a fruit?

0:18:19 > 0:18:23- I don't think that was the way to do it.- Pomme de terre.

0:18:24 > 0:18:29- How do I do this?- The half circle? Slowly. Just leave it.

0:18:29 > 0:18:30Holding the knife like a pen,

0:18:30 > 0:18:34Lauren uses a steady hand to perfect her carving.

0:18:34 > 0:18:38Look! The thing's gone. What am I going to do?

0:18:38 > 0:18:40Hide it with this piece of melon.

0:18:40 > 0:18:43You have to cut, like, a triangle. Like a V.

0:18:48 > 0:18:50Your time is up.

0:18:50 > 0:18:55Rene must now decide who will become today's carving master chef.

0:18:55 > 0:18:56Very exciting.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- What is this supposed to be? - Fish melon.- A fish?

0:19:02 > 0:19:06It looks like a whale. Je deteste la baleine!

0:19:06 > 0:19:09It makes me angry to gaze upon it. Argh!

0:19:09 > 0:19:12And why is this full of holes?

0:19:12 > 0:19:13Miss Fruit Carving Lady.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27I do not like it.

0:19:27 > 0:19:29I LOVE it!

0:19:29 > 0:19:33From now on, you will carve all my fruit and vegetables.

0:19:33 > 0:19:35Ah, oui! Oui!

0:19:35 > 0:19:39Now, turn this melon into the Eiffel Tower. Allez!

0:19:56 > 0:20:00- So, looking forward to celebrating your buddy's birthday?- What? Oh.

0:20:00 > 0:20:03- Do you think there'll be cake? - Unlikely.- Jelly?- Probably not.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06Do you think he'll manage to blow all his candles out at once?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08On balance, I'd say, probably, no.

0:20:08 > 0:20:12- There'd have to be about 2,500 candles on the cake.- 2,500?

0:20:12 > 0:20:16- How old is this buddy?- We're not celebrating my buddy's birthday.

0:20:16 > 0:20:19We're celebrating the BUDDHA'S birthday.

0:20:19 > 0:20:22- THE Buddha?- Yes.- Wow!

0:20:22 > 0:20:24Do you think we'll play musical chairs?

0:20:24 > 0:20:26Of course I'm not going to play musical chairs

0:20:26 > 0:20:27on the Buddha's birthday.

0:20:27 > 0:20:29Well, what do you know?

0:20:29 > 0:20:32It's the Buddha's birthday and they are playing musical chairs,

0:20:32 > 0:20:34but that's not all.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Here at the annual Mount Abu Summer Festival,

0:20:36 > 0:20:37up to 20,000 people

0:20:37 > 0:20:39have been turning up

0:20:39 > 0:20:40in their best party clothes

0:20:40 > 0:20:43since 1978 to celebrate the birthday

0:20:43 > 0:20:46of the religious teacher Buddha.

0:20:46 > 0:20:49The religion of Buddhism comes from his teachings.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51Of all the fun and games at the Festival,

0:20:51 > 0:20:54the highlight has got to be the pedalo boat race on Lake Nakki.

0:20:54 > 0:20:57But more on that later. First, this.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59Some warm-up nonsense involving a big stick

0:20:59 > 0:21:01and these rather lovely pots.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05It's genius. There's a pot on the ground.

0:21:05 > 0:21:08Everyone everybody gets a chance to pace it out,

0:21:08 > 0:21:12then you get your blindfold on and try and smash it with a stick.

0:21:12 > 0:21:15Easy-peasy. Well, you'd think so.

0:21:15 > 0:21:21One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten...

0:21:21 > 0:21:23I might skip it!

0:21:23 > 0:21:26Do you think anyone's ever smashed this pot?

0:21:28 > 0:21:30I'm not sure.

0:21:30 > 0:21:33- Ha-ha!- Oh-ho! They're having to actually stop them.

0:21:33 > 0:21:35He's just tried to hit someone in the crowd!

0:21:40 > 0:21:42Of course, Chris is outstanding at all sports,

0:21:42 > 0:21:45so he should have this in the bag, really.

0:21:45 > 0:21:48- You're up next. - OK, next. Wish me luck.

0:21:48 > 0:21:52All right, Chris! The crowd's ready for a laugh.

0:21:52 > 0:21:54Good luck, Mr Chris!

0:21:54 > 0:21:56Ah! Thanks, Ed.

0:21:56 > 0:21:57Ha-ha-ha!

0:21:58 > 0:22:00I've lost count of my steps already.

0:22:00 > 0:22:02Oh! Oh!

0:22:02 > 0:22:04Ah!

0:22:04 > 0:22:06Ah!

0:22:08 > 0:22:10Oh, oh!

0:22:12 > 0:22:13Oh!

0:22:13 > 0:22:15CHEERING

0:22:16 > 0:22:18Oh! Did I get it?

0:22:19 > 0:22:22Oh, well, halfway there!

0:22:24 > 0:22:26Not bad. I managed to hit it at least.

0:22:26 > 0:22:27Didn't crack it, but hit it.

0:22:27 > 0:22:29Let's see how Ed does.

0:22:30 > 0:22:34Oh! One, two, three, four, five,

0:22:34 > 0:22:39six, seven, eight, nine, ten...

0:22:39 > 0:22:41Oh! 11, 12...

0:22:41 > 0:22:4413, 14, 15.

0:22:44 > 0:22:47No-one's cheering, or getting particularly excited.

0:22:47 > 0:22:49Oh, here we go!

0:22:49 > 0:22:51CHEERING AND WHISTLES

0:22:54 > 0:22:55Where was I?

0:22:55 > 0:22:57I was way off!

0:22:57 > 0:23:01Yes, Ed, you were way off, but you showed that sand who was boss!

0:23:01 > 0:23:04I actually won that one!

0:23:05 > 0:23:07- I'm a winner, apparently. - You are winner.

0:23:10 > 0:23:13The force is strong with this one,

0:23:13 > 0:23:15when it comes to hitting pots with a stick.

0:23:15 > 0:23:18All for me! Just saying.

0:23:18 > 0:23:21All he did was hit a pot with a stick, that's all he did.

0:23:25 > 0:23:27Stop being happy.

0:23:27 > 0:23:29Next up, good old-fashioned...

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Tug-of-war!

0:23:34 > 0:23:35With garlands.

0:23:35 > 0:23:38This was one of my favourite sports at Sports Day, Chris.

0:23:38 > 0:23:39You're in trouble, now.

0:23:45 > 0:23:47CHEERING AND WHISTLING

0:23:50 > 0:23:52- Congratulations. - Thank you very much. See?

0:23:52 > 0:23:54- Congratulations. - Adoring praise.

0:23:54 > 0:23:57Thank you. Oh, see? There you go. That's how you do it.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01Mount Abu is what's known as a hill station.

0:24:01 > 0:24:05It can be ten degrees cooler up here than at the foot of the mountain.

0:24:05 > 0:24:07So, it makes it an ideal place

0:24:07 > 0:24:10for Indian people to come on their holidays.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13- OK! The lake.- Ah, yes! - That's right.

0:24:13 > 0:24:15The large body of water you see is the lake

0:24:15 > 0:24:20and the visitors to Mount Abu do love a go on a pedalo.

0:24:20 > 0:24:21A "pedal-go".

0:24:21 > 0:24:23They love a "pedal-go".

0:24:23 > 0:24:27And right here is where the main event race is going to take place.

0:24:27 > 0:24:30First off, find yourself a boat.

0:24:30 > 0:24:33Think these are perfect for us, Chris. They're evenly matched.

0:24:33 > 0:24:35They're aerodynamic. They've got clear sightlines.

0:24:35 > 0:24:37- It's the eyes, isn't it? - I'll take this one.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39I think it gives me a tactical advantage because it's a crocodile.

0:24:39 > 0:24:43I'm going to take this one because you picked that one.

0:24:43 > 0:24:46One thing, though - there are two seats in each one.

0:24:46 > 0:24:47Yeah, you're right.

0:24:47 > 0:24:51Looks like we've got to find ourselves some racing partners!

0:24:52 > 0:24:54You can stop filming now.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56- There! Look!- Please, don't go yet.

0:24:56 > 0:25:00You guys look like you like pedalos, do you want to be our racing team?

0:25:00 > 0:25:03- Yeah!- Brilliant. Looks like we found our racing partners!

0:25:05 > 0:25:07Seriously. Stop filming now.

0:25:07 > 0:25:09No. There's loads more stuff to film.

0:25:09 > 0:25:11Starting with...

0:25:16 > 0:25:19The rules to this race couldn't be simpler.

0:25:19 > 0:25:23You and your racing partner pedal the boat as fast as you can

0:25:23 > 0:25:24round the island and back.

0:25:24 > 0:25:26Trying to beat the other nine pedalos.

0:25:26 > 0:25:28Even Ed and Chris should manage that.

0:25:28 > 0:25:30Right. Let's do this.

0:25:30 > 0:25:34Three, two, one, pedal-a-go-go!

0:25:34 > 0:25:39All right! Here we go. We're off! Nice strong stroke.

0:25:39 > 0:25:42Don't steer into the camera boat. That wouldn't be a very good start.

0:25:42 > 0:25:44Right, to the island!

0:25:46 > 0:25:49- This is going well, Sandy, isn't it? - Yes, come on! Fast.

0:25:49 > 0:25:52We mustn't burn out, though. Crocodile all the way!

0:25:52 > 0:25:54See you later, alligator!

0:25:54 > 0:25:56What, are there flags on the island?

0:25:56 > 0:25:58- Why is there flags on there? - This is a temple.

0:25:58 > 0:26:01Oh, it is a temple. Look. There's things on there.

0:26:01 > 0:26:04Less sightseeing and more peddling required, Ed.

0:26:04 > 0:26:06It's not just an island, it's a temple.

0:26:06 > 0:26:08Yes. Yes. And this is meant to be a race.

0:26:09 > 0:26:13OK. Somebody's going round the island the wrong way

0:26:13 > 0:26:14and they're not the only one.

0:26:14 > 0:26:15Just saying.

0:26:15 > 0:26:19- Oh, look who it is!- Oh, he so smug.

0:26:19 > 0:26:20Go around that side!

0:26:20 > 0:26:22What's wrong with this side?!

0:26:22 > 0:26:24Who do you think is going to win, Chris?

0:26:24 > 0:26:27I'll get back to you on that one.

0:26:29 > 0:26:32Coming around the other side of the island. Oh, my bum really hurts.

0:26:32 > 0:26:36- There's someone gaining on us! - Yes, keep on! Keep on!

0:26:36 > 0:26:37This is going really well.

0:26:37 > 0:26:41I can't wait until Chris Johnson sees my victory dance. Ha-ha!

0:26:41 > 0:26:46- Oh, my days!- Ah, looks like we're going to come second or third.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49That's great, Ed. That surely means you're going to beat Chris.

0:26:51 > 0:26:55I suppose we win in a different way. We just stop and sail. Have a drink.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57Enjoy the ride.

0:26:57 > 0:26:59Yes! Second!

0:27:01 > 0:27:02Oh, no!

0:27:02 > 0:27:04Now, it's all over.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06Well done, Sandy.

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Good work. Very good work.

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Oh, yeah!

0:27:11 > 0:27:14Victory! Victory!

0:27:14 > 0:27:18This is prestigious trophy, All Over The Place Asia

0:27:18 > 0:27:20and the trophy goes to the winner, Ed!

0:27:20 > 0:27:22Yes!

0:27:22 > 0:27:26A-ha! I feel so prestigious. Why aren't you dancing, Chris?

0:27:26 > 0:27:28Do your dancing now. Come on.

0:27:28 > 0:27:29That's it. That's it. I want my bagpipes.

0:27:29 > 0:27:32Where's my band? I want my band back.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36You've been watching All Over The Place Asia!
