0:00:02 > 0:00:03Are you ready for another
0:00:03 > 0:00:05adrenaline-fuelled American adventure?
0:00:05 > 0:00:06Ed and Michelle
0:00:06 > 0:00:08are away with the fairies.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10Johny gets sweet and corny.
0:00:10 > 0:00:11Sherlock Holmes Naomi
0:00:11 > 0:00:13fails to solve a mystery.
0:00:13 > 0:00:14That's well difficult.
0:00:14 > 0:00:16And Iain falls behind!
0:00:16 > 0:00:17IAIN LAUGHS
0:00:20 > 0:00:22# All over the place
0:00:22 > 0:00:24# All over the place
0:00:25 > 0:00:27# North, south, east, west On a bizarre quest
0:00:27 > 0:00:29# Me and my mates All over the place!
0:00:29 > 0:00:32# It's true what you've heard Everything is absurd
0:00:32 > 0:00:35# Whatever we do is strange but true!
0:00:35 > 0:00:38# All over the place
0:00:38 > 0:00:40# All over the place
0:00:40 > 0:00:43# Bet you didn't know this stuff was all over the States
0:00:43 > 0:00:47- # But it turns up - All over the place! #
0:00:47 > 0:00:51First up is the lightning capital of the United States. It's Florida.
0:00:52 > 0:00:53I am looking forward to our
0:00:53 > 0:00:56fantastic Florida adventure at Coral Castle.
0:00:56 > 0:00:57SHE LAUGHS
0:00:57 > 0:01:01Yeah... Coral Castle's not under the sea, though, Naomi.
0:01:01 > 0:01:03Isn't it made of coral?
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Mmm... Well, yeah, no. Kind of.
0:01:06 > 0:01:07It's a mystery.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11- Is it a castle, though? - It's a mystery.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14- Well, how do we get there? - I'm a bit mystified.
0:01:15 > 0:01:18This is Coral Castle in Homestead, Florida
0:01:18 > 0:01:21and, yes, it is made from real coral.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25It was built by a real man called Ed who worked only at night.
0:01:25 > 0:01:28Ed Leedskalnin was born in Latvia.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30He and his family were stonemasons.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32He started it 90 years ago
0:01:32 > 0:01:34and it took 28 years to complete,
0:01:34 > 0:01:37but he never did get around to adding that roof.
0:01:37 > 0:01:40Ed and Naomi, you have 28 seconds to find out as much
0:01:40 > 0:01:43as you can about Coral Castle.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47Ed, you have Zulay, a guide who knows all about the castle.
0:01:47 > 0:01:51Naomi, you have Ken, a guide who knows all about building.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54Three, two, one, go!
0:01:56 > 0:01:59- When was it built? - It was built in 1923.
0:01:59 > 0:02:02- Why did he build it? - Because he lost his love
0:02:02 > 0:02:04and he wanted to make a tribute to her.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- Did he have supernatural powers?- No.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08- Who helped him?- No-one.
0:02:08 > 0:02:09- Could he fly?- No, he couldn't fly.
0:02:09 > 0:02:13- How do you think he built it?- Because he had all the scientific knowledge,
0:02:13 > 0:02:16he read a lot, and he actually knew about pulleys.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- Is this good building material? - Absolutely.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21- How heavy is that piece of stone over there?- This one right here?- Yes.
0:02:21 > 0:02:22I don't know.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25- How do you get in and out of the Coral Castle? - KLAXON
0:02:25 > 0:02:29Do you know what, Ken? Thanks very much. Let's hope we nailed that one.
0:02:29 > 0:02:31I was just about to ask a useful question
0:02:31 > 0:02:33that I wanted to know the answer to, but I ran out of time.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35It's no longer a mystery -
0:02:35 > 0:02:38the person who found out the most facts is...
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Naomi!
0:02:40 > 0:02:43Me and Ken, just ask us anything you need to know about the castle.
0:02:43 > 0:02:46It comes as no surprise, I was completely rubbish.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50- But I still don't know how he made it.- Ah, well.
0:02:50 > 0:02:54That's the mystery, isn't it, Naomi? The mystery of Coral Castle.
0:02:54 > 0:02:58Many have tried to unravel the mystery, many have failed.
0:03:05 > 0:03:09Edward Sherlock Petrie as Sherlock Holmes
0:03:09 > 0:03:14and Naomi Sherlock Wilkinson as Sherlock Holmes Two.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17It's a complicated tale full of complications.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22So, what does our initial inspection of the site tell us,
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Naomi Sherlock Holmes Wilkinson?
0:03:24 > 0:03:28That our man, Ed, was a bit of a mystery, Ed Sherlock Holmes Petrie.
0:03:28 > 0:03:32- Well, if anyone can solve this mystery, it'll be me!- And me!
0:03:32 > 0:03:36It's a mystery how these tools were used to build Coral Castle.
0:03:36 > 0:03:38Let me have a look. I'm sure, with my superlative powers
0:03:38 > 0:03:42of deduction and superior sense of intuition, I can solve this problem.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53No. That's well difficult.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57Not as difficult as coming up with the idea to build it
0:03:57 > 0:03:58in the first place.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01# Oh, Latvia, you're the place for me
0:04:01 > 0:04:04# And this song tells you what this accent's meant to be. #
0:04:04 > 0:04:09- You seem very happy today, darling. - Well, life is good, my sweet 16.
0:04:09 > 0:04:12With my stonemasonry skills taught to me by my grandfather,
0:04:12 > 0:04:15I have a bright career ahead of me.
0:04:15 > 0:04:19And tomorrow, I marry the girl of my dreams. My beautiful Agnes.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Life is "briniskigs".
0:04:22 > 0:04:24That's Latvian for "wonderful" - we looked it up.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27Perhaps there is more to life than stonemasonry.
0:04:27 > 0:04:30I mean, it's 1912, there is a whole world out there.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33What do you wish for, Agnes? I give you anything.
0:04:33 > 0:04:38Well, look here, they have just built world's largest ship,
0:04:38 > 0:04:40the Titanic.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44They can cross Atlantic Ocean in the height of luxury in just
0:04:44 > 0:04:46- a matter of days. - CREAKING AND THUMPING
0:04:46 > 0:04:49Just imagine a wonderful ship like that.
0:04:51 > 0:04:55Oh, apparently it sunk. What a horrible, tragic vessel.
0:04:58 > 0:04:59SHE GASPS
0:04:59 > 0:05:03Look here, a woman has just flown across the English Channel.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06Oh, the romance of flight.
0:05:06 > 0:05:10This Harriet Quimby is dancing around the sky in beautiful,
0:05:10 > 0:05:13beautiful biplane.
0:05:15 > 0:05:19Oh, apparently she died in plane crash.
0:05:19 > 0:05:21I do not trust those machines.
0:05:24 > 0:05:27Well, maybe if you want to see the world,
0:05:27 > 0:05:31we could move somewhere new. America, maybe. Start a new life.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35- Really?- If you wish for it, of course. I make a NEW plan.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38You mean, we can travel, see the sights,
0:05:38 > 0:05:43- the Great Lakes, New York City, Statue of Liberty?- No, no, no.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I was thinking I could buy a plot of land in Florida
0:05:45 > 0:05:48and spend the next 30 years working single-handedly through
0:05:48 > 0:05:50the night to build you a castle made from coral -
0:05:50 > 0:05:53using the techniques of the ancient Egyptians
0:05:53 > 0:05:56and of course my own special, supernatural powers.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00Actually, I don't think I want to marry you any more. See ya!
0:06:01 > 0:06:04If it's the accent, I can try harder!
0:06:12 > 0:06:16- Ed, Ed, save some for...me. - Oh, I really needed that.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19- I was really thirsty. - Yeah, I can tell.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22Oh, now I need something else, if you know what I mean.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Oh, it's a good job that we're here, isn't it? At the Toilet Seat Museum.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27Yes. I'm so relieved.
0:06:40 > 0:06:44No boring old paper or canvas for Barney, no siree.
0:06:44 > 0:06:48It's toilet seats that he likes to use to show off HIS artwork.
0:06:48 > 0:06:52- And, no, I'm not pulling your chain. - Hi, Barney.- Hello, Barney.- Hey!
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Come in and join me.- How you doing? - I'm doing fine, thank you.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57So, how many film crews have you had coming to see you
0:06:57 > 0:06:59since you started your toilet museum?
0:06:59 > 0:07:02I guess that I've had at least 50 film crews that have come here.
0:07:02 > 0:07:0350 film crews!
0:07:03 > 0:07:06I've got 70 foreign countries that have come in here
0:07:06 > 0:07:08and signed my guestbook.
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Barney, you know more about TV than us!
0:07:12 > 0:07:15Barney rescues brand-new toilet seats that have been slightly
0:07:15 > 0:07:17soiled - I mean scratched -
0:07:17 > 0:07:19and turns them into unique works of toilet seat art.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22All hung here in his Toilet Seat Museum!
0:07:22 > 0:07:24Which is also his garage.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Barney, would you be able to design a toilet seat for us?
0:07:26 > 0:07:29I'd be glad to, if I had something to put on it.
0:07:29 > 0:07:33While Barney decides what his exclusive All Over The Place
0:07:33 > 0:07:35artwork will be, he asks Ed and Johny
0:07:35 > 0:07:38to leave THEIR mark on the toilet seat.
0:07:38 > 0:07:40No, not that type of mark.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44I think this was made with a bit of inspiration
0:07:44 > 0:07:45from the Renaissance period.
0:07:45 > 0:07:48I can definitely see France, definitely Michelangelo.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50What do you think?
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I think it's a toilet seat, mate.
0:07:53 > 0:07:57The average person goes to the toilet six to eight times a day
0:07:57 > 0:08:00and spends three whole years of their life sitting on the loo,
0:08:00 > 0:08:03which is why I've got a TV and a games console in there.
0:08:03 > 0:08:05You see that cowboy hat up there?
0:08:05 > 0:08:09- Yeah.- That's from the legend of El U-Bend. He went to the toilet,
0:08:09 > 0:08:11- he didn't come out of hours.- Really?
0:08:11 > 0:08:13And everyone was wondering where he was.
0:08:13 > 0:08:17When they kicked the door down, there was nothing there except his hat.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- Really?- No, just made it up.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Actually, I wonder how cowboys DID go to the toilet.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27What do you have there, son?
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Well, while you was minding camp, I bought me
0:08:29 > 0:08:33some pretty darn nice things from that there travelling salesman.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37Whoo-ee! Woo-hoo!
0:08:38 > 0:08:41- What's it for?- Go on, have a guess.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45It's a comfy, camping pillow
0:08:45 > 0:08:47with space for a toothbrush.
0:08:47 > 0:08:52- If only I had a toothbrush. - No, it ain't for that, dummy.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56It's when you go to the privy - you know, the toilet.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59You mean, I don't need to wipe my behind on a dry corncob, no more?
0:08:59 > 0:09:05- Nuh-uh.- Dang.- Feel how soft that is. - Well, I guess I could give it a go.
0:09:05 > 0:09:10- Go on, cowboy. Warm it up for me. - Why, thanks, partner.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Hang on, you never let me go to the toilet before you, on account of my
0:09:14 > 0:09:18movement smelling worse than the dead mule's backside in the midday sun.
0:09:18 > 0:09:22Uh-huh. Well, that there travelling salesman sold me something
0:09:22 > 0:09:23for the smell as well.
0:09:24 > 0:09:25Woo-ee!
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Dang, this toilet paper's too soft for me.
0:09:33 > 0:09:36- Could you pass me that old corncob? - Sure thang.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Just when you thought you'd heard enough toilet humour,
0:09:43 > 0:09:46let's play A Number One Or A Number Two.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49Those cowboys sure did have some strange toilet habits.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- HE BREAKS WIND - I wonder if they blamed the horses in them there days.
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Buddy, it's your lucky day. This is what's going to happen -
0:09:56 > 0:09:58you're going for a big grand prize,
0:09:58 > 0:10:00and that prize is to go to the restroom
0:10:00 > 0:10:03or what you guys in the United Britain call the toilet.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05OK, your first question.
0:10:05 > 0:10:08Which celebrity has Barney dedicated a toilet seat to
0:10:08 > 0:10:13in his collection? Is that number one, Michael Jackson,
0:10:13 > 0:10:17or is it number two, Justin Bieber? Nice boy, I know him personally.
0:10:17 > 0:10:21- I'm going to go for a number two. - That answer was incorrect, boy.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23You ain't going to the toilet just yet.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26It's time for your second question. You want to go to the toilet, right?
0:10:26 > 0:10:27I can tell you want to go to the toilet.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30You're going to have to get this question right.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33OK, which of these toilet seats has Barney's grandson's toys
0:10:33 > 0:10:37attached to it? Is it number one or number two?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39Yeah, I'm going to go for number one.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41That is the correct answer. Well done, son.
0:10:41 > 0:10:44- Well, I've just got to go... - Not so fast, boy.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46It's time for your third and final question.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50Which toilet seat best represents Toilet Seat Man's
0:10:50 > 0:10:52favourite holiday destination?
0:10:52 > 0:10:57Is it number one, Hawaii in the old US of A?
0:10:57 > 0:10:59Or are you going to go for number two,
0:10:59 > 0:11:02Bognor Regis in the United Kingdom?
0:11:02 > 0:11:05Oh, I'm going to go with number two.
0:11:07 > 0:11:10You got it wrong, boy. It's number one.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13We ain't going to let you go home empty-handed, oh, no.
0:11:13 > 0:11:15You get to win some diapers,
0:11:15 > 0:11:16or for our UK audience watching at home,
0:11:16 > 0:11:18we talking about some nappies.
0:11:18 > 0:11:20Oh, bog off!
0:11:22 > 0:11:23Join us next time.
0:11:24 > 0:11:27Barney, this is so good. Thank you.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29We're honoured to be part of your museum.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Well, I'm so glad that you wanted to be a part of it.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35- Come back and see me again. - Will do.- We definitely will.
0:11:35 > 0:11:38Now, Ed, it is time to go. Is there anything that you need to do?
0:11:38 > 0:11:40- It's a long journey we've got ahead of us.- Nope.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43- Are you sure you don't need to go to the bathroom?- Absolutely sure.
0:11:43 > 0:11:46Yeah, are you sure? Because we're not going to stop along the way.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Johny, I will not be going to the toilet for this entire journey.
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Trust me.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53ED BREAKS WIND
0:12:01 > 0:12:03So, why have we been made to dress like this?
0:12:03 > 0:12:05It seems that here in Ann Arbor, Michigan, there is
0:12:05 > 0:12:08something that you're not going to find anywhere else.
0:12:08 > 0:12:10Two presenters walking down the road dressed as fairies?
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Apart from that, Ed. I've heard that there's loads of tiny,
0:12:13 > 0:12:15little doors hidden around the city.
0:12:15 > 0:12:18Doors that fairies might use.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21No, can't see any fairy doors.
0:12:22 > 0:12:26Oh, there is THAT thing, though. I guess it's some sort of car?
0:12:27 > 0:12:28Oh, for crying out loud.
0:12:28 > 0:12:32They parked on the sidewalk again, they're going to get towed away.
0:12:32 > 0:12:35- Excuse me?- Yes.- Hi, is this anything to do with the fairy doors?
0:12:35 > 0:12:38As a matter of fact, it is. That's a fairy car
0:12:38 > 0:12:39and the fairies must be home.
0:12:39 > 0:12:43- Right, I don't see any door there. - Oh, no.
0:12:43 > 0:12:47- The door here is on the inside. Would you like to see it?- Yeah.
0:12:47 > 0:12:48All right, come on.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- Am I still asleep?- No. - Is this a dream?
0:12:51 > 0:12:53No! Aren't you listening to me?
0:12:53 > 0:12:54Oh, and your wings are wonky.
0:12:54 > 0:12:56So, I take it you're responsible for these doors, then?
0:12:56 > 0:12:58No, I'm not responsible at all.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00- So, who's responsible for them, then?- The fairies.
0:13:00 > 0:13:05- The fairies built these doors?- Urban fairies.- Right, course they did.
0:13:05 > 0:13:06How long did they take to build?
0:13:06 > 0:13:09Well, some just appear overnight and then others,
0:13:09 > 0:13:10over a course of time.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Do you want to race me to find them?
0:13:12 > 0:13:15Yeah, why not?
0:13:15 > 0:13:18Oh, come on. Get with the programme, Tinkerbell Petrie.
0:13:21 > 0:13:24Well, that's the ones people know about.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26I wonder what happens when someone loses a tooth?
0:13:26 > 0:13:29Do they all come fluttering out for it?
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Come on, Michelle, you can find another.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38Look, here's one. This is amazing. It's like a tiny little shop.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Everything is so diddy.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43It's got, like, little tables and chairs, little cakes.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45It's so detailed. You know what?
0:13:45 > 0:13:47I really wish I was a fairy now,
0:13:47 > 0:13:50There's no way I'm going to be able to get in there.
0:13:53 > 0:13:56Oh, here's one. Oh, wow.
0:13:56 > 0:13:58Look at that, that's brilliant.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00That's like a direct copy of the real door.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06Jonathan - I mean the fairies - have done a really good job of this one.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09Oh, there's an interior door as well.
0:14:10 > 0:14:13And it opens! That's brilliant.
0:14:14 > 0:14:16You can get arrested for this sort of thing -
0:14:16 > 0:14:18staring into people's houses.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20I should leave before they set the fairy police on me.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22Oh, don't be silly, Ed.
0:14:22 > 0:14:23We all know fairies don't exist.
0:14:27 > 0:14:30Tell you what, I've had it up to here with being a tooth fairy.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34Look at the size of this lad's tooth. Nearly did me back in.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37Oh, I don't know why we bother any more, mate. I really don't.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39Apparently, humans don't believe in us any more.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42- Look.- How dare they?
0:14:42 > 0:14:44What about all the famous fairies, like Tinkerbell,
0:14:44 > 0:14:48the Sugar Plum Fairy, them ones on top of Christmas trees.
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- They think it's all made up. - Made up?
0:14:50 > 0:14:54I saw Tinkerbell down the shops earlier, nothing made up about her.
0:14:54 > 0:14:57What about Fairy Liquid? They'll be saying THAT don't exist next.
0:14:57 > 0:14:59- No, they use it to do the washing-up.- What?
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Do they know how hard that stuff is to produce?
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Well, if that's their attitude,
0:15:04 > 0:15:06I'm not fetching their teeth from under pillows no more.
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Well, what're you going to do instead?
0:15:08 > 0:15:11I'll be a different sort of fairy. A fairy godmother.
0:15:11 > 0:15:16Ha! You can't be a fairy godmother. You don't know how to use a wand.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19Yeah, I do. It's easy. Got one in here somewhere.
0:15:21 > 0:15:26- Here we are. Right. Make your wish.- All right, then.
0:15:28 > 0:15:29I wish I was human.
0:15:32 > 0:15:34Ow!
0:15:34 > 0:15:37Oh, I'm boiling.
0:15:39 > 0:15:43- What you done now?- I've turned you into a human.- Really?
0:15:43 > 0:15:45I feel funny.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49- Are you sure I'm a human? - Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely a human.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53- Because I feel a lot like a hot dog with wings.- No, no, no.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57- Definitely not a hot dog. - You sure?- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- What you doing? - I'm giving you a bath.
0:16:06 > 0:16:08Oh, well, that's just great.
0:16:25 > 0:16:29'Can you believe it? We come all the way to Chicago and it's raining.
0:16:29 > 0:16:33'Hey, Ed, look! Someone with a bigger head than you!
0:16:33 > 0:16:36'Cel, Cel, you know I have to look my best for my adoring public.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40'That's you, dear viewer.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43'It's a work of art, slap bang in the middle of Chicago.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45'It was designed by a man called Jaume Plensa
0:16:45 > 0:16:47'and it's called Crown Fountain.
0:16:49 > 0:16:52'Looks like the biggest smartphone in the world.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56- 'Ah, the TWO biggest smartphones in the world.- Wow!
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- 'Is this the only time it's good to be two-faced?- Oh!'
0:17:01 > 0:17:03CEL LAUGHS
0:17:03 > 0:17:08'Each tower is made up of 148 video screens and they're 15 metres tall -
0:17:08 > 0:17:11'which is eight times taller than you.
0:17:11 > 0:17:13'Hang on, that's a different face.
0:17:13 > 0:17:17- 'And that's changed too.- Yup, the face changes every few minutes
0:17:17 > 0:17:20'and there are 1,000 different faces, all local people.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25'You know, all this water is making me need the loo! Oh!
0:17:25 > 0:17:28'Where would YOU want your giant face to appear?'
0:17:28 > 0:17:33I would like my giant face to appear on the sun,
0:17:33 > 0:17:36because my grandma says, "I'm always shining."
0:17:36 > 0:17:40And I'd be pulling a face with my tongue sticking out
0:17:40 > 0:17:43and my eyes like big bubbles.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46I'd like my giant face to appear on a hotel, because they'd have
0:17:46 > 0:17:50to walk into my mouth and then come out from my nose.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52SHE LAUGHS
0:17:52 > 0:17:55And they'd all be covered in slimy snot.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57SHE LAUGHS
0:18:13 > 0:18:17# If strange wooden creatures are something you're craving
0:18:17 > 0:18:20# Then Mount Horeb is for you
0:18:21 > 0:18:24# Because, thanks to close links with things Scandinavian
0:18:24 > 0:18:28# Your hand-carved dreams will come true
0:18:28 > 0:18:32# For lining the streets in this Wisconsin town
0:18:32 > 0:18:35# Are strange ugly wooden souls
0:18:35 > 0:18:39# They draw tourists in from miles around
0:18:39 > 0:18:42# Cos these are the Mount Horeb trolls
0:18:42 > 0:18:46- #- Trolls- Trolls- Trolls- Trolls
0:18:46 > 0:18:47# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:18:47 > 0:18:49# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:18:49 > 0:18:51# Oh, haven't you heard?
0:18:53 > 0:18:55# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:18:55 > 0:18:56# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:18:56 > 0:19:00# It's the troll capital of the world
0:19:00 > 0:19:04# But when did they first appear?
0:19:04 > 0:19:08# Why on earth are they here?
0:19:08 > 0:19:11# Years ago a shop owner thought it would be funny
0:19:11 > 0:19:15# To put trolls outside his shop
0:19:15 > 0:19:17# He though it would entice people
0:19:17 > 0:19:19# In to spend money
0:19:19 > 0:19:22# And sure enough they began to stop
0:19:23 > 0:19:27# But when a bypass took traffic away
0:19:27 > 0:19:30# Locals worried business would fail
0:19:30 > 0:19:34# So more and more trolls have appeared since that day
0:19:34 > 0:19:36# And now Horeb's on the tourist trail
0:19:38 > 0:19:40# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:19:40 > 0:19:42# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:19:42 > 0:19:46# All along the main street
0:19:46 > 0:19:47# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:19:47 > 0:19:49# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:19:49 > 0:19:53# Different trolls you can meet
0:19:53 > 0:19:56# Each carved from wood by hand
0:19:56 > 0:20:00# And Michael Feeney's your man... #
0:20:00 > 0:20:02- He's made Tub Troll.- Tricycle Troll.
0:20:02 > 0:20:04Chicken Thief Troll.
0:20:04 > 0:20:06One called The Accordion Player.
0:20:08 > 0:20:11- Helga. - And Tootsie, the Tooth Fairy Troll.
0:20:11 > 0:20:14And most importantly, The Mayor.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18# They're shabby, unattractive and ugly too
0:20:18 > 0:20:22# Ooh, shall I do the joke about how one looks like you? #
0:20:22 > 0:20:25No, it's a cheap gag, we're better than that.
0:20:25 > 0:20:27- But it really does.- Leave it.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:20:29 > 0:20:31# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:20:31 > 0:20:34# From Norse legends of old
0:20:34 > 0:20:36# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:20:36 > 0:20:38# Tro-o-o-o-oll
0:20:38 > 0:20:41# There's 15 or so here all told
0:20:42 > 0:20:45# And despite what he said... #
0:20:45 > 0:20:48There is one that looks exactly like Ed.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51- What?- Nothing.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07- What you doing?- I'm just trying to read an American classic.- Which one?
0:21:07 > 0:21:10Fantastic Four? Batman? Spider-Man? That's a good one.
0:21:10 > 0:21:12No, Iain, has no-one told you?
0:21:12 > 0:21:15We're here at Victorville to celebrate one of the greatest
0:21:15 > 0:21:16characters in American literature.
0:21:16 > 0:21:20Oh, I thought we were in Smallville, celebrating Superman.
0:21:20 > 0:21:23No, we're here at the Huck Finn Fest. He's the main character in this book.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25So, when you said main character, I thought you meant
0:21:25 > 0:21:28like Wolverine or something - "I got claws!
0:21:28 > 0:21:32- "I got claws."- All I wanted was some peace and quiet to read my book.
0:21:32 > 0:21:34Oh, what a tizzy he gets himself in sometimes!
0:21:34 > 0:21:37Welcome to the Huckleberry Finn Festival.
0:21:37 > 0:21:40It's been celebrating the fictional character,
0:21:40 > 0:21:43Huck Finn, for over 36 years.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Huck was as famous as Harry Potter in his day.
0:21:45 > 0:21:49But obviously without the flying car, the cloak of invisibility,
0:21:49 > 0:21:52the scar down his forehead, the glasses or Voldemort.
0:21:54 > 0:21:56There are loads of events today,
0:21:56 > 0:22:00including the Liars Competition, horseshoe throwing and this,
0:22:00 > 0:22:04the ever-popular "who can climb the highest up a greasy pole?" event.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07- Come on!- The trick seems to be to hug the poll.
0:22:07 > 0:22:10No-one's got further than that so far.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15- All right, your turn. - Go, Ed!- OK, here we go.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20- And he's making his way up the pole. - Go, Ed!
0:22:20 > 0:22:24- Oh, it's not as easy as he thought it was.- This is really difficult.
0:22:24 > 0:22:29- Every time I take one step up, I go one step down.- You got it!
0:22:31 > 0:22:33IAIN LAUGHS
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Oh, that was not a comfortable landing. IAIN LAUGHS
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Oh, Ed, let's look at that again. Ow!
0:22:40 > 0:22:42I'm glad I've recorded this - I'm going to watch this all day.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45My tactics will be, "not fall like an idiot, like Ed did."
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Iain's going to have to work pretty hard...
0:22:48 > 0:22:50to be even worse than me at this.
0:22:55 > 0:22:56Oh, dear.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59- Aaargh!- Oh, no, that's lame.
0:22:59 > 0:23:00That's so lame.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07ED LAUGHS
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Argh!
0:23:09 > 0:23:12I got about that far.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15Pathetic and appalling.
0:23:15 > 0:23:18It's not as easy as it looks, people at home...
0:23:18 > 0:23:19- Yeah.- ..and voice-over man.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21Yeah, well, that's what you say,
0:23:21 > 0:23:24but this guy's just taken his nappy off and look how high HE'S going.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25Oh!
0:23:25 > 0:23:29- Oh, he did it!- Someone got to the top, it is possible!
0:23:29 > 0:23:31So Lyle showed these two how it's really done.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Ed marginally won that event
0:23:33 > 0:23:36and Iain has quite literally slipped behind.
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Hey! Don't get too smug, mate. Cos what are my two strengths?
0:23:39 > 0:23:40Talking in a Scottish accent
0:23:40 > 0:23:43and presenting television in a mediocre fashion?
0:23:43 > 0:23:45No, horseshoes and throwing.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48And it's the horseshoe-throwing competition next.
0:23:48 > 0:23:50The rules are simple. You have two throws.
0:23:50 > 0:23:53Both throws are measured and added together, and the person with
0:23:53 > 0:23:57the shortest combined distance from the peg is the winner.
0:24:00 > 0:24:03Don't embarrass yourself in front of all these people, now.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04THEY GROAN
0:24:08 > 0:24:14Aw, come on. It bounced. It's landed there and ended up miles away.
0:24:14 > 0:24:15Rules are rules, Iain.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18The distance is measured from where the horseshoe ends up,
0:24:18 > 0:24:21- not where it first hits the ground. - That's not good at all.
0:24:21 > 0:24:26- 18 foot 7 inches. - That's taller than me.
0:24:26 > 0:24:29We're European. We're metric - that means nothing to me.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31Well, 18 feet and 7 inches
0:24:31 > 0:24:33is 5½ metres -
0:24:33 > 0:24:35or the length of two large horses.
0:24:35 > 0:24:36So that's what Ed's got to beat.
0:24:41 > 0:24:43What?!
0:24:43 > 0:24:45I can make up for it now. Here we go.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47IAIN LAUGHS
0:24:47 > 0:24:51He didn't even throw it anywhere near far enough.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55It's not much worse than yours, is it? Oh, that is quite bad, actually.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58- What are we looking at, Kevin? - We're looking at 12 foot 8.
0:24:58 > 0:24:5912 foot 8.
0:24:59 > 0:25:01That's nearly four metres,
0:25:01 > 0:25:04which is about a horse-and-a-half.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08- He never beat me!- 12 foot 8, 18'- 7". Look, he's the judge, Iain!
0:25:08 > 0:25:11- You're the winner.- I'm not standing for this.- He's the winner.
0:25:11 > 0:25:13I'm the winner!
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Don't get too cocky, Ed.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18Iain could still snatch the trophy from you in the final event.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Which is the big one, it's the Liars Contest.
0:25:21 > 0:25:24Nine people are taking part in the Liars Contest today,
0:25:24 > 0:25:26and the rules are simple.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28The person who can tell the tallest tale
0:25:28 > 0:25:32and gets the biggest round of applause is the winner.
0:25:33 > 0:25:38Hello there. Hello. You see this here on my leg, you see that?
0:25:38 > 0:25:40That's my birthmark.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44Now, I was watching the Highland Games in Scotland,
0:25:44 > 0:25:47in a place called Inverness, and the Royal Family were there.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49And they were wearing kilts,
0:25:49 > 0:25:52which is like a skirt. And I noticed that all the Royal Family
0:25:52 > 0:25:56had the same birthmark as me on their leg.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02And I suddenly realised that I was a member of the British Royal Family.
0:26:02 > 0:26:06That was the only explanation. So I rang up Buckingham Palace...
0:26:08 > 0:26:11As soon as he crosses the water, the girls can't get him.
0:26:11 > 0:26:15And he gets halfway over the bridge, one of the girls reaches out,
0:26:15 > 0:26:19grabs the tail of his horse and pulls the tail off.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22He gets such a fright, he does a massive accident
0:26:22 > 0:26:24all in his trousers.
0:26:24 > 0:26:28And that's why we all wear kilts. Thank you very much. Cheers.
0:26:28 > 0:26:30APPLAUSE
0:26:30 > 0:26:32- Ed and the Queen!- Boo.
0:26:32 > 0:26:36- God bless America! God bless America!- Boo!
0:26:38 > 0:26:40- Iain and the kilt.- Yeah!
0:26:40 > 0:26:45That's a huge American roar for Iain's Scottish fib.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50But has he done enough to win a prize in the overall competition?
0:26:51 > 0:26:55First prize goes to...
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Donna!
0:26:57 > 0:26:59APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Second prize goes to...
0:27:03 > 0:27:04Daryl!
0:27:04 > 0:27:06APPLAUSE AND CHEERING
0:27:06 > 0:27:10- Third prize goes to...- Come on!
0:27:10 > 0:27:12- ..Iain!- Amazing!
0:27:12 > 0:27:15Iain has come third in the whole competition.
0:27:15 > 0:27:18It's official, Iain is one of the world's best liars.
0:27:18 > 0:27:21This is... It's quite heavy, this rosette, isn't it?
0:27:21 > 0:27:23I expect you'll be wanting a trophy now, will you?
0:27:23 > 0:27:25- Let's find out who won. - We know who won.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Would you like to announce the winner?
0:27:27 > 0:27:29- Who could it be? - Well, gee, I couldn't imagine,
0:27:29 > 0:27:33but it seems Iain has pulled it off.
0:27:33 > 0:27:35Yeah. Huck Finn Fest trophy.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Congratulations! Hands across the sea, and all that.
0:27:37 > 0:27:40- Thank you very much. Any final words, Ed?- Oh, yeah.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43- God bless America.- God bless it.
0:27:43 > 0:27:46You've been watching All Over The Place USA.
