'Four children fed up with their parents' driving.'

0:00:020:00:05

They've smashed it up! 'Four parents who have slipped into bad habits.'

0:00:050:00:09

There, there, there, there! But you wouldn't have it!

0:00:090:00:13

'Over the last nine days, they have been put to the test

0:00:130:00:16

'on every element of road safety. All under the watchful eye

0:00:160:00:19

-'of our examiner, Sandra.'

-That was typical Andy!

0:00:190:00:23

-'They've passed some challenges.'

-Yes!

0:00:230:00:28

-'They've failed some challenges.'

-Can you believe it?

0:00:280:00:31

'Today it's all or nothing as they face the Ultimate Driving Test.'

0:00:310:00:36

Oh, no. Oh, no!

0:00:360:00:39

-There goes two melons! 'Today is the day...'

-How am I meant to get past?

0:00:410:00:45

'..our teams will pass or fail the Driving Academy.'

0:00:450:00:50

I'm Joe Swash and this is Driving Academy. Today is judgement day.

0:00:540:00:58

Nine days ago, four kids brought their four parents

0:00:580:01:01

through these gates for the first time.

0:01:010:01:03

Since then, we've put their parents through intense driving training.

0:01:030:01:07

We want to cure their bad habits and bad behaviour behind the wheel.

0:01:070:01:10

Today is the big one, a chance for our teams

0:01:100:01:13

to graduate the Driving Academy. I'm nervous and I'm not driving.

0:01:130:01:16

'Today, our teams are going to face two super-tough tests

0:01:160:01:19

'that they must pass. The Highway Quiz Showdown

0:01:190:01:23

'will test how much they have learnt in the last nine days.'

0:01:230:01:26

Please reveal your answers. You all got it wrong.

0:01:260:01:28

'Fail this and they will not be allowed to take

0:01:280:01:31

'the Ultimate Driving Test.'

0:01:310:01:34

-Hold tight.

-I hate this.

0:01:340:01:36

'The teams must score a minimum of five out of ten on each test

0:01:390:01:42

'to graduate from the academy.'

0:01:420:01:44

So, teams, let's reveal who's getting what.

0:01:440:01:47

'Our parents have shown signs of being better drivers.

0:01:470:01:50

'But will their bad habits come back to haunt them?'

0:01:500:01:53

It's important that my dad passes the Ultimate Driving Test

0:01:530:01:56

so that he can prove to himself that he can be a safe road user.

0:01:560:02:01

I feel quite worried about what we're going to do

0:02:010:02:04

in the Ultimate Driving Test. I don't know what they'll throw at us.

0:02:040:02:07

If we fail the Ultimate Driving Test, it'd be horrible.

0:02:070:02:11

It's something we've been training to do at Driving Academy.

0:02:110:02:14

We've been practising ever so hard.

0:02:140:02:16

'Over the last nine days, our kids have been learning to drive

0:02:160:02:19

'on the Academy's private roads with instructor Vicky

0:02:190:02:22

'in a specially-designed dual-controlled car

0:02:220:02:25

'so that they can pass on some safe driving tips to their parents.

0:02:250:02:29

'When Manesha brought dad Cliff here,

0:02:290:02:31

'she was worried about his speeding.'

0:02:310:02:33

I don't think he should speed and go over the speed limit.

0:02:330:02:36

That's why I'm taking him to Driving Academy.

0:02:360:02:38

'But on day one, it was Manesha's reckless driving

0:02:380:02:41

-'that nearly ran over a crash-test dummy.'

-Had to put the brakes on!

0:02:410:02:45

'Instructor Vicky used her dual controls to brake and save the day.

0:02:450:02:48

'Dad Cliff wasn't any better on day three's emergency stopping.'

0:02:480:02:52

-Oh, Cliff!

-'And by day eight,

0:02:520:02:55

'steering became a problem on the skid challenge.

0:02:550:02:58

'Car control would be the key for the Purples later.

0:02:580:03:02

'When Jono arrived with mum Michelle, she was a nervous driver.'

0:03:030:03:07

We started off having one bump and then she had another bump

0:03:070:03:11

in the same month, and now she's awful.

0:03:110:03:13

'Then on day six's car control challenge, something clicked.'

0:03:130:03:17

Ohh! That wasn't too bad.

0:03:170:03:19

You got over this ramp of doom so well. There was no fear at all.

0:03:190:03:24

'But she's still showing an alarming lack of awareness of hazards.'

0:03:240:03:29

It's not a hazard. Not a hazard. No problem.

0:03:290:03:32

No, I don't think so.

0:03:320:03:34

'The Blues will have to overcome their poor road safety knowledge

0:03:340:03:37

'to pass the Driving Academy.

0:03:370:03:39

'Nine days ago, Molly was worried about Dad Andy's driving.'

0:03:390:03:42

When you're in the car with my dad, you feel nervous,

0:03:420:03:45

like you're going to die, because he's very dangerous

0:03:450:03:48

-and he doesn't know how to drive.

-'On day one,

0:03:480:03:51

'the Orange Team weren't safe or happy drivers.'

0:03:510:03:54

-You're going too fast, Dad!

-Ohh! We've hit one now, you!

0:03:540:03:57

-You're driving!

-'But on day two, Andy showed us what he's capable of

0:03:570:04:00

'if he and Molly get that attitude sorted.

0:04:000:04:04

'But which Orange Team will turn up today?

0:04:040:04:07

'Finally, Sarah. Where do we start?'

0:04:080:04:11

She does her makeup when she's driving.

0:04:110:04:13

She's like this. She's got her knees up, she's going...

0:04:130:04:16

-Done.

-'Early on, Sarah brought her terrible driving habits

0:04:170:04:21

-'to the Academy.'

-I can rescue this.

-'Mum's not even looking!'

0:04:210:04:25

-No.

-'Knocking into everything in her path!

0:04:260:04:30

'Sarah's irresponsible driving had rubbed off on Rhys.

0:04:320:04:35

'Hopefully, the Driving Academy has worked wonders.

0:04:360:04:39

'And if the Green Team concentrate today, they may just stand a chance.

0:04:390:04:44

'We've completed all the training.

0:04:440:04:46

'Later, the teams have to succeed in the Ultimate Driving Test.'

0:04:460:04:50

But first, they'll need to pass this, the big one,

0:04:500:04:52

the Highway Quiz Showdown!

0:04:520:04:55

OK, teams, you're about to face the Highway Quiz Showdown.

0:04:580:05:01

The stakes are high. You pass and you're one step closer to a medal.

0:05:010:05:05

Fail and you will not take part in the Ultimate Driving Test.

0:05:050:05:09

I'm going to ask you ten questions. You need to get five out of ten

0:05:090:05:13

to pass. Parents, it's your question first.

0:05:130:05:17

Please draw the road sign for queues likely ahead.

0:05:170:05:21

OK, parents, this is what it should've looked like.

0:05:290:05:32

OK.

0:05:330:05:35

Michelle, unfortunately, that's incorrect.

0:05:350:05:39

Cliff, spot on. That's correct.

0:05:390:05:42

Sarah, unfortunately, you've done the same as Michelle.

0:05:420:05:45

You've draw four cars, it should've been three. Andy, well done.

0:05:450:05:50

Question number two is for the kids.

0:05:500:05:53

When should you never cross a level crossing?

0:05:530:05:56

That's where the train track crosses the road.

0:05:560:05:58

Could you reveal your answers, please?

0:06:050:06:08

The correct answer is A, flash red.

0:06:100:06:14

Unfortunately, Jono, yours is incorrect.

0:06:140:06:17

The rest of you, well done.

0:06:170:06:19

Which of these signs is the correct sign for no pedestrians?

0:06:190:06:24

I can tell you that the correct answer is...A.

0:06:270:06:32

Well done, Michelle. Yours is correct.

0:06:330:06:36

Cliff, correct. Unfortunately, Sarah, yours is incorrect.

0:06:360:06:40

Andy, well done. Yours is correct.

0:06:400:06:43

When there is no pavement, where should you walk?

0:06:430:06:47

A, on the right-hand side facing the oncoming traffic?

0:06:470:06:52

B, on the left-hand side with your back to the oncoming traffic?

0:06:520:06:56

Or C, in the middle of the road? Please reveal your answers.

0:06:560:07:01

-Teams, the correct answer is A.

-Yes! Well done!

0:07:040:07:08

Jono, unfortunately, yours was incorrect.

0:07:080:07:11

Manesha, yours too was incorrect.

0:07:110:07:14

Rhys, well done. Molly, yours was correct, too.

0:07:140:07:18

A, no stopping at any time?

0:07:220:07:25

B, no waiting at any time?

0:07:250:07:27

Or C, no parking until after 6pm?

0:07:270:07:32

Could you reveal your answers, please?

0:07:320:07:35

I can tell you that the correct answer is B.

0:07:360:07:39

Michelle, Cliff, Sarah and Andy, you all got it wrong.

0:07:390:07:44

'It's the halfway stage and the Oranges are just one point away

0:07:440:07:47

'from the five they need to pass.

0:07:470:07:49

'But the Blues are a long way off with just one point.'

0:07:490:07:51

Question number six is only for the kids.

0:07:510:07:54

So, guys, would you like to follow me?

0:07:540:07:57

'If teams fail the Highway Showdown, they fail the Driving Academy.

0:07:570:08:01

'Jono need to get four of the five remaining questions correct.'

0:08:010:08:06

There's a lorry behind you. There are red marks on the floor.

0:08:060:08:10

I want you to place your bikes on the red mark

0:08:100:08:12

that you think is the lorry's blind spot. Off you go.

0:08:120:08:17

'The blind spot is part of the road that cannot be seen by the driver,

0:08:170:08:21

'even when using all of their mirrors.'

0:08:210:08:23

OK, guys. In fact, I can tell you that you're all correct.

0:08:230:08:27

Every single one of these red marks is a blind spot.

0:08:270:08:31

The only safe place to be is...

0:08:310:08:34

This is a safe spot. Remember, if you can't see the driver,

0:08:380:08:43

the driver can't see you.

0:08:430:08:45

'So, the Oranges have reached the five pass mark.'

0:08:450:08:49

Question seven is for the adults.

0:08:490:08:51

'The tread is the groove on the tyre that helps it grip the wet roads.'

0:09:040:09:09

Would you like to reveal your answers, please?

0:09:090:09:12

I can tell you, the correct answer was A.

0:09:130:09:18

Michelle, very well done. You, too, Cliff.

0:09:180:09:21

Unfortunately, Sarah and Andy, you both went for B. That was incorrect.

0:09:210:09:25

'Five points - a pass for the Purples.

0:09:250:09:27

'Blues and Greens need two points from the last three questions.'

0:09:270:09:31

Question number eight is for the kids.

0:09:310:09:33

Thank you very much, dummies.

0:09:530:09:55

So, could you please reveal your answers?

0:09:550:09:59

The correct answers is C,

0:10:010:10:04

a white light at the front and a red light and red reflector at the back.

0:10:040:10:09

So Jono and Michelle and Rhys and Sarah,

0:10:090:10:14

you need to get at least one correct answer from the next two questions

0:10:140:10:18

to go through to the Ultimate Driving Test. Question number nine.

0:10:180:10:23

When driving on a dry, clear day,

0:10:230:10:25

how many seconds gap is the minimum that you should leave

0:10:250:10:29

between your car and the one in front?

0:10:290:10:32

Would you like to reveal your answers?

0:10:360:10:39

I can tell you the answer is two seconds.

0:10:400:10:44

Only a fool breaks the two-second rule.

0:10:440:10:47

Jono and Michelle, you put down nine seconds.

0:10:470:10:49

That's very safe, but it's the wrong answer.

0:10:490:10:53

You need to get the next question right to move on.

0:10:530:10:56

The final question is...

0:10:560:10:59

Will you please reveal your answers?

0:11:030:11:06

'Jono has to get this right.'

0:11:060:11:08

The correct answer is...C.

0:11:080:11:13

Well done, guys, you're all through to the next part of the test!

0:11:130:11:16

You're a step closer to getting your medals!

0:11:160:11:19

But the pressure is still on.

0:11:190:11:21

The Ultimate Driving Test is going to be very, very, very tough.

0:11:210:11:25

SIREN WAILS

0:11:310:11:34

It's the final challenge, so we've made it particularly tough.

0:11:380:11:42

We're going to chuck everything at them today. Steering, reversing,

0:11:420:11:45

braking, judging speed, smooth driving and hazards.

0:11:450:11:48

It's going to be a toughie so our teams better be on top form.

0:11:480:11:52

'There are ten points up for grabs, one for each of the nine obstacles

0:11:520:11:55

'plus a bonus point for good behaviour.

0:11:550:11:58

'Our chief examiner will be sat next to them in the car today

0:11:580:12:02

'so they'll have to convince her they deserve every single point.'

0:12:020:12:06

'The teams need to score five out of ten to graduate from the academy.

0:12:080:12:12

'Pass and their scores will be added to the points they've already earned

0:12:120:12:15

'in the Highway Quiz Showdown. That will determine their medal.

0:12:150:12:19

'A total of 10 to 12 points will win them bronze.

0:12:190:12:22

'13 to 15 points out of 20 bags them silver.

0:12:220:12:25

'And 16 points and above sees them drive away with the gold pass mark.

0:12:250:12:30

'It's judgement time and the teams know it.'

0:12:300:12:33

We're only getting one shot at it. I don't want to go home with nothing.

0:12:330:12:37

I've got to do it for me and for Rhys.

0:12:370:12:39

It's the final day and everything we've worked for is for today.

0:12:390:12:44

We're going to give every bit of purple power we've got.

0:12:440:12:47

We're going to get the gold medal. We can't leave without a gold.

0:12:470:12:50

The tangerine dream team are going for the gold today.

0:12:500:12:53

We're going for, going for gold!

0:12:530:12:55

'So it's time for the Ultimate Driving Test.

0:12:550:12:57

'Let's hope the academy succeeded in making them all safer road users.

0:12:570:13:01

'The first challenge is the penalty boot out.

0:13:010:13:04

'It tests the driver's skill at reversing.'

0:13:060:13:09

So, in your own time, Manesha, start the test.

0:13:090:13:13

-Towards yourself. Not too much.

-'Remember, Sandra has dual controls

0:13:140:13:18

'to brake in case of emergency.'

0:13:180:13:21

-Good girl. Stop.

-'Oh, I think it's going wide. Hang on!'

0:13:220:13:26

-Hit the post!

-'Ohh!'

-It's in!

-THEY CHEER

0:13:260:13:30

'In off the post! That looks like a point for the Purples.

0:13:300:13:35

'Next in line for a penalty is Jono.

0:13:350:13:38

'Go on!'

0:13:420:13:45

-THEY CHEER

-Good job!

0:13:450:13:48

'Great goal! But hang on, his celebrations could cost him dearly.

0:13:480:13:51

'Remember, it's Sandra's decision to give him the point or not

0:13:510:13:54

'and she hates hands off the wheel. Third to go is Rhys.

0:13:540:13:57

'Everyone has scored so far. Where's he going? Mind the dummy!

0:13:570:14:02

'Oh, no!'

0:14:020:14:04

It ain't a great start. He nearly knocked down my crash test dummy,

0:14:040:14:07

missed the ball and he's hit a barrier.

0:14:070:14:09

'An utter disaster!'

0:14:090:14:12

Take a breath and drive on when you're ready.

0:14:120:14:14

'Rhys is going to have to calm down and concentrate to impress Sandra.

0:14:140:14:18

'Last rookie to kick off is Molly.

0:14:180:14:21

'Last time she attempted a goal, it looked like this.'

0:14:210:14:24

Go on. Oh, hang on. Go on, you're going to have to now.

0:14:240:14:27

Oh, no! I couldn't see what I was doing, Dad, and you put me off!

0:14:290:14:34

'Let's hope things go a little bit better this time.

0:14:360:14:39

'Looks good.

0:14:400:14:43

-Yes!

-There we go, see?

0:14:430:14:45

'Back of the net! That's got to be a point!

0:14:450:14:49

'She's learnt so much about patience and control

0:14:490:14:51

'here at the academy. Well done, Molly!

0:14:510:14:53

'Next up, it's the narrow alley.

0:14:530:14:55

'Sandra will be marking them on steering and control.

0:14:550:14:59

'Manesha had trouble on day one with steering,

0:14:590:15:02

'weaving all over the place. This is going to be tough for her.'

0:15:020:15:05

Bit of spillage. You have to be ever so careful. Turn a little bit more.

0:15:050:15:09

'Oh, no! Has she lost her chance to win a point in this challenge?'

0:15:090:15:14

'Concentrate, Manesha.

0:15:140:15:16

'Jono rarely seems to struggle.

0:15:160:15:20

'And Sandra must give him a point for that. Molly next.

0:15:220:15:25

'A look of concentration.

0:15:270:15:29

'And she's through!

0:15:310:15:33

'Rhys could have a few problems, though.

0:15:330:15:35

'On day five, Rhys showed us what happens when he doesn't concentrate.

0:15:350:15:40

-'Car control is not always his strong point.'

-What happened there?

0:15:400:15:43

-I just turned a bit too far.

-'Let's hope he's on better form today.'

0:15:430:15:47

Slowly. Your way a bit. Your way a bit. Ooh.

0:15:470:15:51

-No, don't worry.

-There goes two melons!

0:15:510:15:53

'It's up to Sandra, but he may just have blown his chances of a point.

0:15:530:15:57

'Now we've reached the hazard section of the course.

0:15:570:16:00

'Let's see what Molly and Andy can make of it.'

0:16:000:16:03

Here comes the hazard.

0:16:030:16:06

-That's good.

-Oh. How am I meant to get past now?

0:16:060:16:10

Just wait and they'll clear it up, I think.

0:16:100:16:12

'This could be a tough one for the Blue Team. Michelle and Jono failed

0:16:120:16:16

'the hazard Super Skills as Michelle didn't recognise many hazards.'

0:16:160:16:20

Not a hazard. We can go round them, they're not running out.

0:16:200:16:24

That's not a hazard. Not too bad. Not a hazard.

0:16:240:16:27

'Will they do better today?

0:16:270:16:29

'There goes the log.

0:16:290:16:32

-'Stopped nicely.' How do you think he got on with the hazards?

-Yep.

0:16:330:16:37

Dealt with it. Still on the brakes. Waiting for the road to be clear.

0:16:370:16:41

-Thank you!

-Do you think Sandra will be impressed?

-Yeah, she will.

0:16:410:16:45

'Looks good for Jono. How about the Green Team?'

0:16:450:16:47

-Stop.

-'Ooh, ooh, he's still going! Is that another point missed?'

0:16:490:16:53

-Brake lights went on quite a long time after.

-Yeah.

0:16:530:16:57

'Manesha's always been a cautious driver. Will that help here?'

0:16:580:17:02

He might not throw it, he might throw it, just be ready to brake.

0:17:020:17:05

'There it goes.'

0:17:050:17:08

-She's pulled up early.

-She's good at hazard perception,

0:17:080:17:11

-she knows her signs, she's good at that.

-Everything apart from steering.

0:17:110:17:15

THEY LAUGH

0:17:150:17:17

'That's three out of nine challenges completed and now it's swap time.

0:17:170:17:21

'Over to the parents for the speed testing zone where they must go

0:17:210:17:25

'between 25 and 30 miles an hour.

0:17:250:17:28

'The car speedometer is covered up so all they have to go on

0:17:280:17:31

'is their judgement. If they're going too fast

0:17:310:17:33

'or too slow, Sandra won't give them a point. Andy's away.

0:17:330:17:36

'Molly seems to have done well for the Oranges but this is tough.'

0:17:360:17:40

Are you sure that's about 30?

0:17:400:17:42

-CHEERING

-Bang on 30 miles an hour! Perfect!

0:17:450:17:51

'Over to the Blues.

0:17:510:17:53

'Apart from taking his hands off the wheel,

0:17:530:17:56

'Jono seems to have done well, but Michelle has to keep scoring.'

0:17:560:18:00

This will be difficult because she's not good with her speed.

0:18:000:18:03

She doesn't understand the speed of the car.

0:18:030:18:06

Not too fast, not too fast! Not too slow, either.

0:18:060:18:10

'23! Too slow! So no points for the Blues.

0:18:120:18:15

'I'm not sure Jono was much help there.

0:18:150:18:18

'Onto the Purples now. Manesha did well apart from a tiny hiccup,

0:18:180:18:22

'but Cliff has confided in us he likes to drive a bit fast.

0:18:220:18:26

'So has Driving Academy taught him any lessons?

0:18:260:18:29

-'27! That's a point!'

-THEY CHEER

0:18:290:18:32

That's fantastic! Exactly what he needed.

0:18:340:18:36

'Finally, the Greens. Rhys had one or two problems earlier on

0:18:360:18:39

'but now it's up to mum Sarah to prove to him

0:18:390:18:42

'that she's a better driver since joining the academy.

0:18:420:18:45

-'She looks serious!'

-Mum, only stay in first gear or it won't work.

0:18:450:18:49

You're over. You're over.

0:18:490:18:51

-Oh! Just on 25.

-'25! Some great advice from Rhys!

0:18:530:18:58

'That's just enough to score a point.' Well done, Sarah!

0:18:580:19:01

Thank you very much, Sarah. Drive on when you're ready.

0:19:010:19:05

'Ooh! What I wouldn't give to find out how Sandra is marking all this.

0:19:050:19:10

'Moving on, Sandra's organised a very sneaky little test.

0:19:100:19:13

'She's asked me to phone her

0:19:130:19:16

'and test the parents' reactions to a distraction in the car.

0:19:160:19:19

-'Let's see how Cliff does.'

-PHONE RINGS

0:19:190:19:22

There's a phone ringing but don't answer it.

0:19:220:19:25

-Don't answer it, yeah.

-Not allowed to answer that phone.

0:19:250:19:28

-Thank you.

-It should be switched off.

0:19:280:19:30

'Very firm. What about Sarah?

0:19:300:19:33

'She's well known for getting distracted in a car.'

0:19:330:19:35

PHONE RINGS

0:19:350:19:37

Can we have phones off in the car, please?

0:19:370:19:40

'That is a lady on a mission. Very good! Onto Michelle.'

0:19:400:19:44

PHONE RINGS

0:19:440:19:46

-Keep driving, Mum.

-Yeah. Is it through the arch next?

0:19:460:19:50

-PHONE RINGS Turn in the road section, here.

-Yeah.

0:19:500:19:54

'She's ignoring it. I'm not sure that's what Sandra is looking for.'

0:19:550:19:58

-Could you please turn your phone off?

-'Well done, Jono!'

-Sorry.

0:19:580:20:01

-'Finally, Andy.'

-PHONE RINGS

0:20:010:20:05

-When you're ready.

-Do you want to answer your phone?

0:20:050:20:08

-Do you want me to answer my phone?

-Well, yeah, cos it's distracting me.

0:20:080:20:11

OK. So you would like me to answer it?

0:20:110:20:14

-Yeah, or get rid of it or put it in the glove box.

-Shall I turn it off?

0:20:140:20:17

-Yeah, turn it off and put it in the glove box.

-OK, take your time now.

0:20:170:20:21

'He took his time there, but at least he didn't try to drive away.

0:20:210:20:24

'Will Sandra take that into account?

0:20:240:20:26

'Onto the sixth of nine tests, the tight turning area.

0:20:260:20:29

'The parents must turn around without touching the walls.

0:20:290:20:32

'Here they are all in their colour-coded windows.

0:20:320:20:35

'Cliff is in the purple window. He could be out first.

0:20:350:20:39

'Yep. He's over the line. I think the Blues are next.

0:20:390:20:42

'Then the Oranges and finally the Greens.

0:20:420:20:46

'No-one hit a wall so hopefully they've all bagged a point.

0:20:460:20:49

'Next is car control. Our drivers have to manoeuvre

0:20:490:20:53

'through a very tight arch.

0:20:530:20:55

'Sarah revealed her true colours on this obstacle on day one.

0:20:550:20:58

'She powered through, knocking the whole thing down.

0:20:580:21:01

'Let's see if her attitude has improved.

0:21:010:21:04

-'It's definitely tight.'

-You've got enough room. There you go.

0:21:040:21:08

-'Well done, Sarah!'

-She was so careful.

0:21:080:21:11

Before she just used to barge through and hope for the best.

0:21:110:21:14

'That's a fantastic improvement from Sarah.

0:21:140:21:16

'Andy is next to face the arch.'

0:21:160:21:19

Does it fit through the arch?

0:21:190:21:22

'Whoa! That's tight.

0:21:220:21:24

-'It's touching.'

-We're good. Your side, Mol?

-Yep.

0:21:260:21:30

'Not only did Andy drive that well, Molly was a perfect passenger.

0:21:300:21:35

'Michelle next, lacking confidence. She also knocked down an arch.'

0:21:350:21:39

-You can fold in your wing mirrors.

-Can I fold wing mirrors in?

0:21:390:21:43

Do what you would do in real life that would be sensible.

0:21:430:21:46

-If you'd like me to do this one, I will.

-Yes, please.

0:21:470:21:50

'She's made it look easy!

0:21:570:22:00

'Last parent to face the arch is Cliff.'

0:22:000:22:03

-Oh, no!

-I don't think it's going to go through.

-Reverse and do it again.

0:22:040:22:08

Just take your time.

0:22:080:22:10

-No, reverse and do it again.

-No, I can do it.

0:22:120:22:15

-Agh! No!

-I've got this wing mirror through now.

-'It's wobbling!'

0:22:150:22:18

Slowly! Slowly! Slowly!

0:22:180:22:21

Yes!

0:22:210:22:23

'Nice one! Only two obstacles left.

0:22:230:22:26

'First they must drive through our high-tech adverse weather simulator,

0:22:260:22:30

'a hose to me and you, without touching the barriers.'

0:22:300:22:33

I've never seen rain like this.

0:22:330:22:36

-It's raining, Mol.

-SHE LAUGHS

0:22:370:22:39

'Well, they're making that look easy. So onto the final obstacle,

0:22:390:22:43

'the ramp of doom!

0:22:430:22:46

'They first went up against the ramp in Super Skill Six,

0:22:470:22:50

'where they tried to drive smoothly, not spilling the ping-pong balls.

0:22:500:22:54

'The trifle did spill, though.

0:22:540:22:57

'Again, and again, and again.

0:22:570:23:00

'Now passenger comfort is in the balance,

0:23:000:23:02

'because the rookies are going to be holding a tray of drinks.

0:23:020:23:06

'They must have at least one drink standing at the end,

0:23:060:23:08

'so smooth driving is essential.

0:23:080:23:11

'First up, it's Michelle.

0:23:110:23:13

'This could be critical. The Blues need the points.'

0:23:130:23:16

More power. More power. More power!

0:23:160:23:18

'Right in the face!

0:23:190:23:21

-Any drinks left there? Oh, yes, you have.

-Ah! It's gone down my trousers!

0:23:210:23:27

SHE LAUGHS Just pull forward and park here.

0:23:270:23:31

'Even Sandra is smiling now. Nice one, Michelle!

0:23:310:23:34

-'Next is the Greens.'

-Watch out.

0:23:340:23:37

'Just like the Blues, this team could do with the points.'

0:23:370:23:40

-I nearly dropped them already and we haven't even...

-Hold tight!

0:23:400:23:43

-I hate this.

-We'll be fine, Rhys, we've done it before.

0:23:430:23:48

-'Oh, dear! What's left?'

-We got one!

0:23:480:23:51

'One left, not so bad, Sarah. Let's just see that again.

0:23:510:23:55

'Excellent. Over to Cliff.'

0:23:550:23:57

We're going a lot slower on this one.

0:23:570:24:00

'Manesha looks worried. Here we go.

0:24:040:24:07

'Was that good? I can't see the tray.'

0:24:090:24:11

-How much have you spilled?

-One.

-Yes!

0:24:110:24:14

'Only one spill! Amazing! Even Sandra must be pleased with that.

0:24:140:24:18

'Finally it's Andy. Last time he smashed the ramp down

0:24:180:24:22

-'and nearly wrecked the car.'

-That was typical Andy. Far too fast.

0:24:220:24:26

'Can the new, calm Andy keep his cool when it counts?'

0:24:260:24:29

-Sorry, Mol.

-'Oh, no. It's going wrong already.

0:24:320:24:36

'I can hardly look.

0:24:360:24:38

-'Edging up.'

-Dad, please, slow. Please.

0:24:400:24:43

'Whoa! Amazing!'

0:24:450:24:49

-Still all right?

-No. One fell.

0:24:490:24:52

-All over my shoe.

-Only one has fallen? Have you got any left?

0:24:520:24:56

-Yeah.

-Hey, well done!

0:24:560:24:58

'Oh! I thought that was perfect for a second.

0:24:580:25:01

'Just that last bump. Only one spilt.

0:25:010:25:04

'But have they done enough to pass Driving Academy?

0:25:040:25:07

'It's time to find out.' So, teams, this is it.

0:25:100:25:13

You've been entertaining, but most of all, you've given 100 percent.

0:25:130:25:17

As you know, you had to pass both the Highway Quiz Showdown

0:25:170:25:21

and the Ultimate Driving Test to receive your medal.

0:25:210:25:24

The better you done, the better the medal you receive.

0:25:240:25:27

We've added your scores up and given you a mark out of 20.

0:25:270:25:31

So, without any further ado, let's reveal who's getting what.

0:25:310:25:36

With a score of 16 out of 20...

0:25:360:25:40

..is...

0:25:400:25:42

..Cliff and Manesha. That's a gold medal. Congratulations!

0:25:470:25:50

'Sandra gave them a superb eight out of ten for their Super Skills,

0:25:500:25:53

'added to their eight out of ten for their Highway Quiz Showdown,

0:25:530:25:57

'the Purples are the first to pass with a gold medal.'

0:25:570:25:59

With a score of 14 out of 20...

0:25:590:26:03

..is Rhys and Sarah.

0:26:060:26:09

That's a silver medal. Congratulations.

0:26:090:26:11

'Six out of ten on the Highway Showdown,

0:26:110:26:14

'and some great driving from Sarah earned eight points on Super Skills,

0:26:140:26:17

'giving the Greens a silver medal.

0:26:170:26:19

'Just two scores left and the Blues are looking worried.

0:26:190:26:22

'They only got five on the Highway Quiz Showdown.'

0:26:220:26:25

It's now getting serious.

0:26:250:26:27

With a score of 12 out of 20...

0:26:270:26:31

..is... Jono and Michelle.

0:26:320:26:35

'Five out of ten on the Highway Quiz Showdown

0:26:350:26:38

'and a great seven out of ten from Sandra gives them 12,

0:26:380:26:41

'and a bronze medal. That just leaves Molly and Andy.'

0:26:410:26:45

So, with the highest overall score of 18 out of 20,

0:26:450:26:48

Molly and Andy with a gold medal! Congratulations! Vicky, Sandra...

0:26:480:26:53

'Eight out of ten in the Highway challenge,

0:26:530:26:55

'and a perfect ten out of ten from Sandra,

0:26:550:26:57

'gives them 18 points, and a gold medal!

0:26:570:27:01

'Well done, everybody!'

0:27:010:27:03

The Academy has achieved a marvellous thing.

0:27:030:27:06

Those kids were worried about the driving ability of their parents.

0:27:060:27:10

That's improved, and not only has it improved,

0:27:100:27:13

but they're going to be safer on the roads as a result.

0:27:130:27:16

All right, guys, let's shake it up! Let's celebrate! Yeah!

0:27:160:27:20

THEY CHEER

0:27:200:27:22

I was aware that my driving wasn't particularly good.

0:27:220:27:26

With all the training, I realised just how bad it was.

0:27:260:27:30

So for me, it's been life-changing.

0:27:300:27:33

My mum's become a better driver. She's a lot better at reversing now.

0:27:330:27:38

I've been driving for nearly 22 years,

0:27:380:27:41

I didn't think I could learn anything. And I'm just so, so wrong.

0:27:410:27:44

It's really nice because I actually want to get in the car and have fun.

0:27:460:27:50

I feel a lot safer in the car.

0:27:500:27:53

I came as a nervous wreck,

0:27:530:27:55

and I am going away as a confident, safe driver.

0:27:550:27:58

Coming to Driving Academy, I think he's learnt not to speed

0:28:000:28:03

and what to do in the car.

0:28:030:28:05

For the parents out there whose kids are saying

0:28:050:28:08

they're not good drivers, get yourself down to Driving Academy.
