0:00:04 > 0:00:05Ed gets tricked by
0:00:05 > 0:00:06a speedboat salesman...
0:00:06 > 0:00:08No, this thing's hardly moving!
0:00:08 > 0:00:11Vic has ants in her pants...
0:00:11 > 0:00:13SHE SCREAMS ..Naomi put them there!
0:00:13 > 0:00:14That's one of the funniest things
0:00:14 > 0:00:16I've ever done.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Michelle overdoes it at Halloween,
0:00:18 > 0:00:20Sam and Mark start
0:00:20 > 0:00:22a fishy food fight,
0:00:22 > 0:00:24Johny makes an unusual discovery...
0:00:24 > 0:00:25Boss, look over there!
0:00:25 > 0:00:26What do you think they are?
0:00:26 > 0:00:28- BOTH:- Ta-dah!
0:00:28 > 0:00:29..and it looks like
0:00:29 > 0:00:31Hacker and Dodge to me!
0:00:31 > 0:00:33And Barney's hungry...
0:00:33 > 0:00:34In Hungary.
0:00:36 > 0:00:38# All over the place
0:00:38 > 0:00:40# All over the place
0:00:40 > 0:00:42# North, south, east, west, on a bizarre quest
0:00:42 > 0:00:46# Me and my mates all over the place
0:00:46 > 0:00:49# It's true what you've heard everything is absurd
0:00:49 > 0:00:51# Whatever we do is strange but true
0:00:51 > 0:00:53# All over the place
0:00:53 > 0:00:57# All over the place
0:00:57 > 0:00:59# There's stuff to do in Europe that is totally ace
0:00:59 > 0:01:00# And it turns up
0:01:00 > 0:01:02# All over the place. #
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- OVER THE TOP CALIFORNIAN ACCENT: - Looking extreme, dude!
0:01:14 > 0:01:15Feeling extreme, dude!
0:01:15 > 0:01:19Bodacious. Today we're going to do something totally rad.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22We're going to travel almost as fast as the motorway speed limit.
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- BOTH:- Extreme!
0:01:24 > 0:01:27Can't wait to start ripping the gnarl, dude!
0:01:27 > 0:01:30Actually, dude, there's no powder to shred
0:01:30 > 0:01:31because it's summer.
0:01:31 > 0:01:32- BOTH:- Oh.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35But it's OK because there's still something totally extreme
0:01:35 > 0:01:36we can do.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38Say hello to the wheelbob.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43- Whoa!- Whoa!
0:01:43 > 0:01:45AMERICAN ACCENT: That is extreme!
0:01:45 > 0:01:49This bobsleigh track was built for the 1994 Winter Olympics.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53But, even in summer when there's no ice, you can still race down it
0:01:53 > 0:01:55in this...
0:01:55 > 0:01:56A wheelbob!
0:01:56 > 0:01:58Yeah, a bobsleigh on wheels!
0:02:00 > 0:02:04And those wheels whizz you down the 1.7km course at speeds of up to...
0:02:06 > 0:02:10That's like travelling at high-speed on a motorway in a car
0:02:10 > 0:02:12with no windows, doors, or even an engine!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14SCREAMING Whoa!
0:02:14 > 0:02:17I suppose it's just like being on a really fast go-kart.
0:02:17 > 0:02:20Exactly, that's the spirit. And the good thing is we don't have to
0:02:20 > 0:02:22drive it ourselves. We have a pilot.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25Oh, well, as long as it requires no effort on my part, I'm in.
0:02:25 > 0:02:27Hiya. Welcome to Lillehammer.
0:02:27 > 0:02:30Put these on and we're ready to go.
0:02:30 > 0:02:33Nope, I'm still scared. I think we need to know a bit more about this!
0:02:33 > 0:02:35- SCREAMING - Excuse me, excuse me.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38I just want to know, before we go hurtling down this,
0:02:38 > 0:02:42what does it feel like travelling at a 100km per hour in one of those?
0:02:42 > 0:02:46Well, you experience three G-forces, so I imagine the bizarre feeling of
0:02:46 > 0:02:49- not being able to keep your head up. - Can't keep your head up?
0:02:49 > 0:02:51Well, you have to struggle to keep it up.
0:02:51 > 0:02:55And the reason you might struggle is all to do with gravity.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Normal gravity on earth has a force of 1g.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01But, as our pilot said, when you're whizzing round the bends
0:03:01 > 0:03:04on the wheelbob, you can feel three times that force, or 3g.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08You might have felt a G-force like that if
0:03:08 > 0:03:10you've ever been on a roller-coaster.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12It's that feeling of being forced into your seat you get
0:03:12 > 0:03:15when it goes round a bend at high-speed.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Gee whiz!
0:03:17 > 0:03:19Oh, no. Oh, no.
0:03:21 > 0:03:22Good luck.
0:03:23 > 0:03:26Oh, here we go.
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Is it too late to get out?
0:03:28 > 0:03:30- SHE LAUGHS - Yes!
0:03:31 > 0:03:34- Good luck, Ed.- Good luck. - Good luck, Mia.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35Oh, here we go!
0:03:35 > 0:03:38- Here we go. Stay upright, stay proud.- It's easy so far!
0:03:40 > 0:03:41Oh, my word.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Oh, my word.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46- Whee!- Oh, my word!
0:03:48 > 0:03:50- SHE SCREAMS - Oh!
0:03:54 > 0:03:57THEY SCREAM
0:03:57 > 0:03:59SHE LAUGHS
0:03:59 > 0:04:03This is faster than any roller-coaster I've ever been on!
0:04:03 > 0:04:05THEY SCREAM
0:04:07 > 0:04:10We haven't even got past number six yet, that's the fastest!
0:04:13 > 0:04:15Whoa!
0:04:18 > 0:04:21SHE SCREAMS
0:04:24 > 0:04:27THEY SCREAM
0:04:34 > 0:04:36THEY SCREAM
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- THEY LAUGH - Oh. Oh, dear.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03That's one of the funniest things I've ever done.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06I've never... I mean, obviously, I have gone faster than that
0:05:06 > 0:05:08in my life. I've never felt like I'm going that fast.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11I wasn't actually capable of any thought other than,
0:05:11 > 0:05:12"Aaaah!"
0:05:13 > 0:05:17- Oh, my goodness.- My brain's still not started working.
0:05:17 > 0:05:20- Who knew you could have so much fun without snow?- Mmm.
0:05:23 > 0:05:24Welcome back to Animal Attraction.
0:05:24 > 0:05:26COW MOOS
0:05:26 > 0:05:28The going out show with a difference.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31Now, last week we paired up this unlikely couple.
0:05:31 > 0:05:33CHEERING
0:05:35 > 0:05:38From the arctic up north, it's Polar Bear.
0:05:38 > 0:05:40- APPLAUSE - And, from the Antarctic,
0:05:40 > 0:05:43all the way down south, it's Emperor Penguin.
0:05:43 > 0:05:44- APPLAUSE - All right, Bez.- Hiya, Barry.
0:05:44 > 0:05:46WOLF WHISTLE
0:05:46 > 0:05:50So, today we find out if opposites attract,
0:05:50 > 0:05:54or was it a case of, "No snowy, no showy."
0:05:54 > 0:05:57CHEERING
0:06:00 > 0:06:03Being an emperor penguin - the biggest of all penguins -
0:06:03 > 0:06:07I wasn't daunted by dating someone over 720kg,
0:06:07 > 0:06:10or the same weight as 12 Katy Perrys.
0:06:10 > 0:06:12And, for once, you won't hear me roar because
0:06:12 > 0:06:15I knew he'd have a warm personality.
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Ha-ha! I mean, after all, he can survive in temperatures
0:06:17 > 0:06:20up to minus 40 degrees centigrade.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I mean, that's two times colder than a fridge-freezer.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26I loved Polar Bear's soft fur which, turns out, isn't white,
0:06:26 > 0:06:28but transparent.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Ha-ha, so you can see right to my heart!
0:06:31 > 0:06:34Actually, it's transparent because each hair is a clear hollow tube
0:06:34 > 0:06:37and each hollow hair reflects the light
0:06:37 > 0:06:41and gives me a warm glow inside, just like my ickle penguin.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43CHEERING
0:06:43 > 0:06:46So, will there be a second date?
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Maybe you can take Polar Bear for another meal, Penguin.
0:06:49 > 0:06:52Oh, that'd be absolutely lovely and, do you know what?
0:06:52 > 0:06:54I've got a fantastic sense of smell when it comes to hunting for food,
0:06:54 > 0:06:56and I'm not a fussy eater at all.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59I mean, if I can't find a seal... Seals are my favourite,
0:06:59 > 0:07:01but if I can't find one, I'm not fussy. I'll eat anything.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04Fish, eggs, seabirds.
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- Seabirds? - Oh, no, no, it's not a problem.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10I'm just trying to explain that I'm not a fussy eater, Barry.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Not at all.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14- AUDIENCE SIGHS - Oh, dear.
0:07:14 > 0:07:16Looks like someone's got cold feet...
0:07:16 > 0:07:19- LAUGHTER - ..and there's not even any snow!
0:07:19 > 0:07:21- LAUGHTER - I guess we were just...
0:07:21 > 0:07:24- poles apart. - CHEERING
0:07:24 > 0:07:25Ha-ha-ha!
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- Oh, dear.- What?- There's one thing you must never say
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- to a Hungarian.- Yeah, what's that?
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Oh, hi. I've just realised something.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51Mate, I'm hungry...in Hungary!
0:07:51 > 0:07:53Are you a hungry Hungarian too?
0:07:53 > 0:07:55Barney, that's what I was trying to tell you.
0:07:55 > 0:08:00- You must never say you're hungry in Hungary to a Hungarian.- Oh.
0:08:00 > 0:08:01- SHOUTS:- I'm so sorry!
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Also, Ed, you probably shouldn't shout loudly in English.
0:08:06 > 0:08:08It's a bit rude!
0:08:08 > 0:08:12But, if you really are hungry, then you've come to the right place.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15This is the August Bakery and Cafe.
0:08:15 > 0:08:20For 145 years, the signature bake here has been a vanilla custard slice
0:08:20 > 0:08:21called a kremes.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Hungarians can't get enough of these traditional pastries.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31200 of them are gobbled up every day at this cafe.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34As the pastry is quite complicated to make at home,
0:08:34 > 0:08:37kremes are usually eaten out in patisseries and cafes.
0:08:37 > 0:08:41Time to put Barney through his pastry paces as he's going head-to-head
0:08:41 > 0:08:43with the king of the kremes - Norbert.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49FRENCH ACCENT: Europe's tastiest food, France's toughest critic.
0:08:49 > 0:08:51He's better than you, it's...
0:08:52 > 0:08:55- EXAGGERATED FRENCH ACCENT:- What is taking you so long?
0:08:55 > 0:09:00I, Rene Mangetout, am about to set you one of the hardest challenges
0:09:00 > 0:09:03of your entire worthless lives.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Harder than this wooden rolling pin.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08- CLUNK - Ah!
0:09:09 > 0:09:11- HIGH-PITCHED VOICE:- Only one... Ahem.
0:09:11 > 0:09:17Only one of you will be crowned Hungarian MasterChef.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19Your challenge is to see who can make
0:09:19 > 0:09:22the most delicieuse and tasty kremes.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- So, we put it on the sheeter.- Yeah.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Do you use a machine like this because,
0:09:28 > 0:09:31if you were going to roll it out, it would just take hours?
0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Exactly.- OK.- You can do it also by hand.- Yep.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37- And stop.- How many kremes bakeries are there?
0:09:37 > 0:09:40There are many, but we have three shops where we bake this.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- That's a genius way to move it.- OK.
0:09:45 > 0:09:49- And just place it here.- That's clever. OK.- Thank you.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53Alle, alle, alle! Veet, veet! You must put the pastry on the trays!
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Why is the pastry not on the trays?!
0:09:55 > 0:09:57It... It... It is on the trays.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Yes! This is...
0:09:59 > 0:10:02not smooth enough. Make that smooth!
0:10:04 > 0:10:06Tres bien.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08So we should take it out from the oven.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13- They look great, don't they? Egg whites in to the whisker.- Yeah.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19You might want to come back in about an hour.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21Aw, that smells amazing.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24This is why you see not many chefs in gyms.
0:10:24 > 0:10:26They don't need to because they get their workout right here
0:10:26 > 0:10:28in the kitchen.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29What is taking you so long?
0:10:29 > 0:10:32Tilly Ramsay would have had it done ten hours ago!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35I really hope Rene Mangetout appreciates the work
0:10:35 > 0:10:37that's gone into this, you know.
0:10:37 > 0:10:41Rene must now decide who will be crowned kremes MasterChef.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- It's terribly tense. - There you go, monsieur.
0:10:44 > 0:10:45Monsieur.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48Mr Howard, this looks like scrambled eggs made by a two-year-old
0:10:48 > 0:10:51for the world's worst teddy bear's picnic.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Disgusting! Ah! Bleugh!
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Avert your face to me, monsieur! I cannot look upon you!
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Mr Pastry Chef Man...
0:11:09 > 0:11:10I do not like it.
0:11:12 > 0:11:14I love it!
0:11:16 > 0:11:17Mmm! Mmm!
0:11:17 > 0:11:21My tongue has died and gone to vanilla custard heaven, monsier!
0:11:21 > 0:11:23Je t'aime, monsieur! Je t'aime!
0:11:24 > 0:11:28Aw! Aw, c'est bon! Ha-ha-ha!
0:11:29 > 0:11:32Now, clear this mess up.

0:12:19 > 0:12:23# Would protect his people if he was to die
0:12:23 > 0:12:26# So he made the Golem moulded from clay
0:12:26 > 0:12:28# He said some sacred words and it came alive
0:12:28 > 0:12:31- # Pretty scary, eh? # - No.

0:12:34 > 0:12:38# Essentially a monster that's made of Plasticine

0:14:01 > 0:14:03I could tell you the legend of the man who made
0:14:03 > 0:14:06this astronomical clock. He was blinded by a masked mob,
0:14:06 > 0:14:09as there had been rumours that he was making a clock for another town.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11When he found out why he'd been attacked, he vowed revenge
0:14:11 > 0:14:12and visited the clock.
0:14:12 > 0:14:14And feeling his creation beneath his fingers,
0:14:14 > 0:14:17he was overwhelmed with sadness and destroyed it.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19At which point, his heart broke and he fell, lifeless to the floor.
0:14:19 > 0:14:21Aw, that's really sad.

0:15:10 > 0:15:12- HICCUPS - Why do you keep hiccupping?
0:15:12 > 0:15:14I don't know, it happens every time
0:15:14 > 0:15:15- I talk about training a dragon. - HICCUPS
0:15:15 > 0:15:17See, it just happened then!
0:15:17 > 0:15:20Next you'll be telling me you're a Viking.
0:15:20 > 0:15:23Maybe Johny needs a fright to get rid of those hiccups.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26Well, this is the Dragon Cave after all.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29But it's hard to imagine a fiery dragon living here.
0:15:29 > 0:15:31It's freezing all year round
0:15:31 > 0:15:35and so cold that there are even icy columns in summer.
0:15:35 > 0:15:37But the word on the street is that the
0:15:37 > 0:15:40bones of a dragon are hidden deep in its depths.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43SHOUTING: Ed and Johny, you have 32 seconds to find
0:15:43 > 0:15:48out as much as you can about the Demanovska Dragon Cave!
0:15:48 > 0:15:53Ed, you've got Michal, who's a tour guide and knows the cave inside out!
0:15:53 > 0:15:56Johny, you've got Peter, who works for the caves
0:15:56 > 0:15:58and knows the cave outside in!
0:15:58 > 0:16:03HE SPEAKS LOCAL LANGUAGE
0:16:03 > 0:16:05How long is this cave?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07More than 2,400m.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09Is there really a dragon in the cave?
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- NARRATOR TRANSLATES:- No, but we do have the bones
0:16:12 > 0:16:13of other animals here.
0:16:13 > 0:16:14- How deep is this cave?- 45m.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Is there really ice here in the summer?
0:16:17 > 0:16:20Yes, of course. This is an ice cave, there's ice here all year round.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23- Who discovered the cave? - Nobody knows.
0:16:23 > 0:16:25Could I go up to the ice with a massive hammer and smash it up
0:16:25 > 0:16:28- and put it in a glass of cola and drink it?- No!
0:16:28 > 0:16:30How did the cave get formed?
0:16:30 > 0:16:32- It was formed by the river Demanovka.- How light...
0:16:32 > 0:16:35- BUZZER SOUNDS - Aw!
0:16:35 > 0:16:38Thank you, I think we did pretty well there. Yeah, come on.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40And the person who found out the most facts is...
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Johny!- Yes!
0:16:43 > 0:16:46You CAVED into the pressure!
0:16:46 > 0:16:50Now for your next challenge, it's DSI.
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Find the legendary bones and solve the mystery.
0:16:53 > 0:16:57Are they, in actual fact, dragon bones?
0:16:57 > 0:16:59- What does DSI stand for? - It's...
0:17:03 > 0:17:06# Who are you
0:17:06 > 0:17:08# Who, who, who, who #
0:17:08 > 0:17:11SIRENS BLARE
0:17:11 > 0:17:13Maybe try taking your sunglasses off, Sergeant Pitts,
0:17:13 > 0:17:15we're in a cave.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Nah, I'm doing fine, boss.
0:17:19 > 0:17:23Looks like we found some remains. The remains of an ice column.
0:17:23 > 0:17:26In the winter, this column would stretch all the way
0:17:26 > 0:17:27to the ceiling of the cave.
0:17:27 > 0:17:30Really? It just looks like rocks to me, boss.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32It's over here.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35I really would recommend taking off those sunglasses.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37All right, Sergeant Pitts, we've got
0:17:37 > 0:17:40to start our search for the bones of the deceased.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Sure thing, boss. I mean, Lieutenant Petrie.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46You'd better use this to collect the evidence.
0:17:46 > 0:17:49If you just, erm... Could you..
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Boss, look over there! What do you think they are?
0:17:52 > 0:17:57Well, using my superior knowledge of DNA, I'd say that they are...
0:17:57 > 0:17:59A big pile of bones.
0:17:59 > 0:18:02Now where's that evidence you collected?
0:18:02 > 0:18:06- I thought I'd keep my doughnut fresh.- Right.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- Never mind. - Who's bones are they, boss?
0:18:09 > 0:18:12Well, something to BEAR in mind, is that they've been here since
0:18:12 > 0:18:16at least 1672 and they were first discovered
0:18:16 > 0:18:18by a man called JP Hain.
0:18:18 > 0:18:24- Whose bones could they be?- They could only be the remains of a bear.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS
0:18:27 > 0:18:29Case closed.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32Well, can I eat my doughnut now?
0:18:32 > 0:18:34No, I'm afraid I'm hungry.
0:18:34 > 0:18:36I mean, I need to take it back to the lab.
0:18:39 > 0:18:41Sorry, boys, no real dragon bones here,
0:18:41 > 0:18:47but maybe a proper archaeologist would have a bit more luck.
0:18:47 > 0:18:48OK, students.
0:18:48 > 0:18:52We're about to search the Earth for ancient peoples, their lives
0:18:52 > 0:18:54and culture.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57Let's do some archaeology.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Bark-aeology, more like!- Ha-ha, good one!- Thank you.
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- Let's dig up some bones.- Yeah!
0:19:02 > 0:19:06Yes, yes, but before we start, have you brought the correct tools?
0:19:06 > 0:19:09BOTH: Ta-da!
0:19:09 > 0:19:10Ha-ha, yes, leave it to us, Trowel-face.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13We know how to dig for bones.
0:19:13 > 0:19:17It's not just about bones, us archaeologists also discover
0:19:17 > 0:19:21human history and tree history from seeds and types of soil.
0:19:21 > 0:19:24He don't half go on, don't he? I'm ravenous!
0:19:24 > 0:19:25Here, boney, boney, boney!
0:19:26 > 0:19:31If we're lucky, we might find something wondrous.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33Like the 8,000 life-saved soldiers of the Terracotta Army,
0:19:33 > 0:19:35from the third century BC,
0:19:35 > 0:19:38discovered just four decades ago in China.
0:19:39 > 0:19:44I'm a terryacotta soldier! Look at me arm-ies! Whoa!
0:19:44 > 0:19:48Maybe we'll unearth an entire Roman town, perfectly preserved.
0:19:48 > 0:19:53Like Pompeii, which disappeared under volcanic ash in 79 AD.
0:19:53 > 0:19:56Eh? You've disappeared now!
0:19:56 > 0:19:58What's going on?
0:19:58 > 0:20:00Oh!
0:20:00 > 0:20:04- Oh, all we've dug up is a load of old tat.- Yeah.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08Urgh, yes, archaeology can be frustrating.
0:20:08 > 0:20:12All I've managed to uncover is this dinosaur relic.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I suppose I better donate it to the Natural History Museum.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18- No! No, you're all right. - We'll take it off your hands.- Yeah!
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Awfully kind of you.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23And if you wouldn't mind making sure they...
0:20:23 > 0:20:25Argh!
0:20:26 > 0:20:27Got any gravy?
0:20:40 > 0:20:43I can't believe we've managed to find such massive pumpkins.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46Oh, yeah. We're going to have the biggest pumpkins by miles.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48- So what's this event? - The Pumpkin Regatta.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50You do know what a regatta is, don't you?
0:20:50 > 0:20:53Yeah, it's a sporting event consisting of a series of boats
0:20:53 > 0:20:54and yachts.
0:20:54 > 0:20:57Yeah, so how we going to fit in these?
0:20:57 > 0:21:01We're not going to fit in these, but we will in those.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03Just squash yourself in, Ed,
0:21:03 > 0:21:07because this is the Pumpkin Regatta at Ludwigsburg palace,
0:21:07 > 0:21:09outside Stuttgart.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13And, yes, you two really will be sailing in giant pumpkins.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16But it's not all about pumpkin paddling,
0:21:16 > 0:21:20they've created an entire festival of all shapes and sizes.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23In fact, there are over 50,000 pumpkins here.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25This is all very nice and everything,
0:21:25 > 0:21:28but someone needs to tell these people there are other vegetables.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Well, you know, pumpkins aren't actually a vegetable. It's a berry.
0:21:31 > 0:21:32- "A berry"?- Yeah.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- What, that is a berry?- Yeah.
0:21:35 > 0:21:39Ha! Ha-ha-ha! Oi, voice-over man, she thinks that's a berry!
0:21:39 > 0:21:40ED LAUGHS
0:21:40 > 0:21:42Michelle's right, Ed.
0:21:42 > 0:21:46Pumpkins are actually a kind of squash plant, or berry
0:21:46 > 0:21:48and they can get very, berry big.
0:21:48 > 0:21:51HE CHUCKLES
0:21:51 > 0:21:54The world record for the largest pumpkin was broken here last
0:21:54 > 0:21:58year, with a pumpkin weighing in at 1,054kg.
0:21:58 > 0:22:00That's about 19 Taylor Swifts.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Go ahead, Ed Armstrong.
0:22:04 > 0:22:08This space rocket appears to be made entirely of pumpkins.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11- BEEPING - Get me out of here!
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Still can't believe you've never tasted pumpkin.
0:22:18 > 0:22:22Although, personally, I'm not a big fan. I find it quite PLANE.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26Forget flying, Ed.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29You two need to concentrate on paddling, for the main event,
0:22:29 > 0:22:31the Pumpkin Regatta.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33He's getting quite a bit of water in his boat.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37- He's putting a lot of effort in and not going very far.- Yeah.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Have you got any paddling tips for us?
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Oh, no.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43He lost, don't ask him.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45You have to get tips from the winner, not from me.
0:22:45 > 0:22:46Well, better luck next year.
0:22:46 > 0:22:49- Yes, thank you, bye.- See you!
0:22:49 > 0:22:53One man who can give you some top tips, is the event organiser,
0:22:53 > 0:22:55pumpkin pro, Mathias.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57And he's got a job for you two.
0:22:57 > 0:22:59OK, Mathias, what can we do to help?
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Hello, yeah, you can scoop the pumpkin out.
0:23:01 > 0:23:04- Scoop the pumpkin?- Yeah.- OK.- OK.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06- That's cool. - With an ice cream scoop?
0:23:06 > 0:23:08- With this, or with your hands. - I'll go for my hands.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- Why not? Let's get stuck in.- I think it's better with your hands, yeah.
0:23:11 > 0:23:12Oh, it's pretty slimy, isn't it?
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I'm going to get my hands in there.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17- Is this why these pumpkins are so big?- The seeds, yeah.- Big seeds?
0:23:17 > 0:23:19Big seeds.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22- How long do they take to grow, Matthias?- Only four months.
0:23:22 > 0:23:26- "Four months"?- Yeah.- To grow one of these?- Like small pumpkins.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Whose idea was it to use a pumpkin?
0:23:28 > 0:23:31It was our idea, from the pumpkin festival.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Since 12 years we've had a race here.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35And do people fall in?
0:23:35 > 0:23:38- Oh, some people fall in. - Some people fall in!
0:23:39 > 0:23:42Let's hope they don't take a tumble.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Time for some training.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46How does this work then?
0:23:46 > 0:23:50- Sit in.- Yeah?- And then go in the pumpkin and on your knees.
0:23:50 > 0:23:52- OK.- OK, so... - Right.
0:23:53 > 0:23:56And on your knees, on your knees. It's no problem.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59It's wobbly! I might get seasick.
0:24:00 > 0:24:02How do I turn around?
0:24:02 > 0:24:07- How do I turn around? - With a bit of patience, Michelle...
0:24:07 > 0:24:09It's quite nice, this, actually.
0:24:09 > 0:24:10I think I've got it, Ed.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12..and a lot of practice.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Oh, I think it's leaking, actually. I feel very wet.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Next up, it's Ed.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19Let's see how Petrie paddles.
0:24:19 > 0:24:22- Oh, whoa!- Yeah, OK.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Have fun!
0:24:24 > 0:24:25You look really happy about this, Ed.
0:24:25 > 0:24:27Yeah, I'm having loads of fun already!
0:24:27 > 0:24:30- Oh, my knees are getting really soggy!- I know, yeah.
0:24:30 > 0:24:33You might end up with a soggy bottom if you fall in. Focus, Ed.
0:24:33 > 0:24:36- I think I've got the hang of this. - You look very balanced, actually.
0:24:36 > 0:24:37Yeah.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39Ed, you're doing really well at this.
0:24:39 > 0:24:43- This is quite annoying. - Do you think I'm really good?- Yeah!
0:24:43 > 0:24:46You just did that turn seamlessly.
0:24:46 > 0:24:50It looks like you're walking in the water wearing a giant pumpkin dress.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54# I'm walking in the water. #
0:24:54 > 0:24:57I'm a bit worried now, Ed, cos you did that really well.
0:24:57 > 0:25:02- Do you think I did?- Yes.- I was feeling confident, but now, I don't!
0:25:02 > 0:25:05I think I might smash Michelle like a pumpkin after that.
0:25:06 > 0:25:11With practice over, it's time to find out the rules.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Ed and Michelle have to row, row, row their boats for 50m,
0:25:14 > 0:25:17around the edge of Castle Lake.
0:25:19 > 0:25:21But there's no danger of knocking each other over,
0:25:21 > 0:25:25because they'll be setting out from opposite sides of the lake
0:25:25 > 0:25:29and they'll only meet again at the pumpkin pontoon.
0:25:29 > 0:25:34First to the finish line will be crowned Pumpkin King, or Queen!
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Just don't forget to plant your paddle on the platform to seal
0:25:37 > 0:25:39victory.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41The time has come.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44Yeah! Team Ed!
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Ed and Michelle are poised in their pumpkins.
0:25:47 > 0:25:50Paddles at the ready...
0:25:50 > 0:25:54Three! Two! One! Pumpkin!
0:25:56 > 0:26:00Oh, no! This thing's hardly moving.
0:26:00 > 0:26:05Michelle is struggling to even, well, move.
0:26:05 > 0:26:07It's so hard!
0:26:07 > 0:26:11I don't want to be a pumpkin paddler!
0:26:11 > 0:26:13Where is she?
0:26:15 > 0:26:18Oh, it's so wet! Where am I going?!
0:26:18 > 0:26:23Oh, Michelle's crashed into the edge! Bruised pride and bruised berry boat.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Whoa!
0:26:25 > 0:26:28But, luckily for Michelle, Ed is rubbish too.
0:26:30 > 0:26:33At the halfway mark, Michelle is starting to catch up!
0:26:33 > 0:26:34No! She's gaining on me!
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Argh!
0:26:36 > 0:26:40Michelle is pumping some serious paddle and she picks up the pace.
0:26:42 > 0:26:45It's neck and neck, with the finish in sight!
0:26:45 > 0:26:46Argh, no!
0:26:46 > 0:26:47Oh, no!
0:26:47 > 0:26:49No! Oh, no!
0:26:49 > 0:26:51The home straight!
0:26:51 > 0:26:53Argh!
0:26:53 > 0:26:56- And Ed lands the killer blow!- Yes!
0:26:56 > 0:26:59The pumpkin paddle seals victory for Team Ed!
0:27:02 > 0:27:03Let's see that again.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07Michelle looked like she had it in the bag.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Only for pumpkin pro Petrie to send her packing.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13And the winner is, Ed! Ed, congratulations!
0:27:13 > 0:27:18- Thank you! I am the Pumpkin King! - I've still got a soggy bottom.
0:27:18 > 0:27:20So have I.
0:27:20 > 0:27:25You've been watching All Over The Place Europe!
