0:00:18 > 0:00:22Ever wondered what it must be like to take control of the family
0:00:22 > 0:00:24holiday? Well, wonder no more!
0:00:24 > 0:00:29This is Gimme A Break, the show where the kids are in charge.
0:00:29 > 0:00:32The kids have all the say. They decide where they go,
0:00:32 > 0:00:36what activities they do, and most importantly, they're in charge
0:00:36 > 0:00:39of the holiday rules.
0:00:39 > 0:00:41Today's lucky family are going to get a break.
0:00:41 > 0:00:44They're not the greens. They're the Browns.
0:00:44 > 0:00:4610-year-old Rosie,
0:00:46 > 0:00:4812-year-old Elizabeth,
0:00:48 > 0:00:51bike-nut Mum
0:00:51 > 0:00:54and skater Dad, otherwise known as the Badger.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56CRASH!
0:00:56 > 0:01:00So why do Elizabeth and Rosie need to be given a break?
0:01:00 > 0:01:02We don't get a choice in the matter.
0:01:02 > 0:01:03We just go where we're told to go.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06We're the adults and we get to choose.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Mum can be annoying, cos she's always on the bike.
0:01:09 > 0:01:11It is true I cycle at least a gazillion miles a week.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14She's like a hamster in a spinning wheel,
0:01:14 > 0:01:18going round and round and round... ..Mum, get a life!
0:01:18 > 0:01:21- If Mum's not cycling, we're all walking.- Yeah.
0:01:21 > 0:01:25They moan about walking, but they do actually enjoy it.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27They pull us up mountains.
0:01:27 > 0:01:31There's mountain goats going "Baaa!" every five minutes.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36They take us to war graves and museums about the war and stuff.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39We make the decision and say, "We're doing this. You'll enjoy it."
0:01:39 > 0:01:41Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't.
0:01:41 > 0:01:44My ideal holiday would be something to do with horses.
0:01:44 > 0:01:47- Definitely.- I have a big problem with horses - a few weeks ago
0:01:47 > 0:01:52I got chased around the stable yard by this big black horse.
0:01:52 > 0:01:56We never really do anything unusual or different.
0:01:56 > 0:01:58We all have fun on holiday.
0:01:58 > 0:02:02But they have to be reminded of how much fun they're having.
0:02:02 > 0:02:06Oh, Brown family. I'm seriously worried about your family holidays.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09- They're not good, are they?- No way! - No!- So, therefore, would you two
0:02:09 > 0:02:13- like to take control of the family holiday?- BOTH:- Yeah!
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Sure you don't fancy another trip away with bicycles?
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- No!- No, thank you!
0:02:18 > 0:02:20OK, fine. Hands on hearts, please.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22And read that out together.
0:02:22 > 0:02:28We, the parents of Elizabeth and Rosie, hereby hand over control
0:02:28 > 0:02:31- of the next family break. - # Hallelujah! #
0:02:31 > 0:02:33- Yes! - Are you feeling a bit of pressure
0:02:33 > 0:02:38- now that you're in charge of the holiday?- No!- No. ..And as for you?
0:02:38 > 0:02:40- Oh, no.- I'm a bit worried about this!
0:02:40 > 0:02:45One look at your faces, I can tell you're not happy. All I will say is,
0:02:45 > 0:02:48break that promise and there will be serious consequences.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50Let's go and talk holidays. Come on.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- Now, your mum's bikes, yes? - Yes.- Forget about those.
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Your family holidays are about to change, because you
0:02:59 > 0:03:04- are in charge. Tell me what you want to do.- Definitely horse-riding.
0:03:04 > 0:03:06Do you think if you told her, "This is a horse-riding holiday,
0:03:06 > 0:03:09"Mum, and we are in charge," she'd get on the horse?
0:03:09 > 0:03:11She'd be gutted, but who cares?
0:03:11 > 0:03:14Your parents reckon on holiday you two are dead lazy.
0:03:14 > 0:03:16Because they make us do boring stuff.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18We don't want to get up for long boring walks.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21If you've got something to get up for, you'd be happy to get up?
0:03:21 > 0:03:24- BOTH:- Yeah.- So just lots of biking, yeah?- Yeah.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27No!
0:03:27 > 0:03:28Can we do that again?!
0:03:28 > 0:03:31I've listened to what the girls want
0:03:31 > 0:03:34and put together three amazing breaks for them to choose from.
0:03:34 > 0:03:38But I'm not just going to tell them what they are. Au contraire.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41They'll have to try to work out what's on offer by cracking
0:03:41 > 0:03:44a selection of cunning clues.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49Break number one's clues are in a farmer's field. Baaa!
0:03:49 > 0:03:52There's eggs and sausages.
0:03:56 > 0:03:59- Ooh arr!- Ooh arr!
0:03:59 > 0:04:02- The sheep are in the field over there.- Yeah.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- It's something to do with a farm. - Yeah.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10- It's a bit cold.- Tent pegs. - It could be camping.
0:04:10 > 0:04:11Mum would hate that.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14- A riding helmet.- Oh, yeah.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18I think this break could be a farm where we have to camp and go riding
0:04:18 > 0:04:20and work on the farm as well.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23I don't think Mum will like it, because she doesn't like horses
0:04:23 > 0:04:25and she doesn't like camping.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28Well, it's lucky Mum's not picking the holiday then, isn't it?
0:04:28 > 0:04:31Mind you, there's something fishy going on with the next clues.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35There's something floating on the island. ..There's a horseshoe.
0:04:38 > 0:04:41The horseshoe is definitely something to do with horses.
0:04:41 > 0:04:46- Ah, she's a clever one. - Shall we both pull it in?- Yeah.
0:04:53 > 0:04:56- What do you think?- Somewhere hot that you can ride horses,
0:04:56 > 0:05:01where it's got sharks. And it's probably an island as well.
0:05:01 > 0:05:05Let's see if the girls can see the wood for the trees.
0:05:05 > 0:05:08Time for their final set of clues.
0:05:08 > 0:05:09It says Gimme A Break.
0:05:12 > 0:05:14Follow the pony to get to the point.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17- Pony? What?- What pony? Where?
0:05:20 > 0:05:22I thought the pony looked really, really daft.
0:05:22 > 0:05:27It had really silly teeth and daft floppy ears. It looked so silly.
0:05:29 > 0:05:30Where's the pony taking us?
0:05:32 > 0:05:35An arrow.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37Um, pans?
0:05:37 > 0:05:41How random. I've no idea what this could be, personally. Do you?
0:05:41 > 0:05:42Cooking show?
0:05:42 > 0:05:44Maybe camping!
0:05:44 > 0:05:48- Yeah, could be camping.- With camping, you have to shoot animals
0:05:48 > 0:05:52- to get food, then you cook them.- No. - An interesting theory, Rosie.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55I'm not sure the pony looks too happy about that.
0:05:56 > 0:05:59That's it, clues over. Have Elizabeth and Rosie
0:05:59 > 0:06:03guessed the breaks on offer, and which one will they choose?
0:06:06 > 0:06:09I think you had a good time trying to work out what your holidays are.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12- BOTH:- Yeah.- Best moment? What did you enjoy?
0:06:12 > 0:06:14- Pony.- Yeah, the pony.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17Yeah, the pony that was your mum and dad dressed up.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22I have, written on this card and on this laptop, the three
0:06:22 > 0:06:26breaks that I've picked for you. Because you went on about horses,
0:06:26 > 0:06:30- every single break that I've picked has horses in it.- Yes!- Wow.
0:06:30 > 0:06:35Break number one is an absolute animal fest.
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Have a look at this. 'Time for some fun on the farmyard.'
0:06:38 > 0:06:42Staying in a luxurious tent, you'll assist a Lincolnshire farmer
0:06:42 > 0:06:45with the pigs, the horses, the chickens, the cows.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48You'll even help welcome new baby lambs into the world.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50A baaa-rilliant break.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54So what do you reckon to break number one? We're talking animals,
0:06:54 > 0:06:56tents, horse-riding.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58What do you think? Talk to me.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02- Wow.- Great, yeah. - You seem very excited indeed, Rosie.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05- Do you want me to go on? - We'll see the other two.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06- Are you sure?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:07:06 > 0:07:10Check it out. Break number two takes you to Killarney on the west coast
0:07:10 > 0:07:13of Ireland. Mum won't have the energy
0:07:13 > 0:07:17to go for a bike ride once you've tackled a high rope course
0:07:17 > 0:07:18and a massive cliff jump.
0:07:18 > 0:07:22Oh, you'll also be horse-riding and dolphin-watching.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25Yes, it was a dolphin fin, not a shark.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27Let me tell you more about it.
0:07:27 > 0:07:30You will go horse-riding on the beach.
0:07:30 > 0:07:34- That would be just great, yeah. - It'll be just the most amazing thing
0:07:34 > 0:07:37with water on your face. It'll be great.
0:07:37 > 0:07:39Mum'll be like...!
0:07:39 > 0:07:42You'll go out on a speedboat, looking for dolphins.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46- You don't think you'll ever do anything like that.- I know.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48Which way are you swaying at the moment?
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Towards the first one.
0:07:50 > 0:07:52I think I like the second one. I like them both, yeah.
0:07:52 > 0:07:55Oh, I can tell there's going to be trouble.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58- Want me to make your decision even harder?- Go on, then.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01Check this out. 'This break will be in the heart of the New Forest,'
0:08:01 > 0:08:04where cattle and pigs roam freely and so could you,
0:08:04 > 0:08:07on your very own pony-trekking adventure.
0:08:07 > 0:08:10Also on the menu for this brilliant break, cooking lessons
0:08:10 > 0:08:13with a professional chef and the chance to take aim
0:08:13 > 0:08:16and become an ace archer, just like Robin Hood.
0:08:16 > 0:08:18The green tights are optional.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Have you been pony-trekking through a forest?
0:08:21 > 0:08:25- No.- That'd be great for me. I've always fancied doing that.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Right. It's decision time.
0:08:27 > 0:08:31Which of the three breaks on offer will the girls choose?
0:08:31 > 0:08:34- Want to tell me which break you've picked?- Break number three.
0:08:34 > 0:08:35You've gone for the New Forest!
0:08:35 > 0:08:37CHEERING
0:08:37 > 0:08:41- What was it that made you go with that?- The idea of riding
0:08:41 > 0:08:44the ponies in the forest.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48Before you go, I've got one last thing to tell you.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51At the end of your break, you'll get the chance to play
0:08:51 > 0:08:55for one last, very special treat.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58However,
0:08:58 > 0:09:02if you get the test that I'm going to set you wrong,
0:09:02 > 0:09:06- your parents get the treat. - We've got to win it.
0:09:08 > 0:09:12So, the Brown family, who until now have always had holidays where
0:09:12 > 0:09:16they've been dragged up mountains and forced to go on gazillion-mile
0:09:16 > 0:09:18bike rides, are off to the New Forest,
0:09:18 > 0:09:19which is actually not that new.
0:09:19 > 0:09:23It was officially created by William the Conqueror in 1079,
0:09:23 > 0:09:27as a hunting area. So it's time for Elizabeth and Rosie to take control.
0:09:27 > 0:09:29But how will Mum cope without her bike?
0:09:29 > 0:09:31I thought I was going to die!
0:09:31 > 0:09:35And who will win the dream treat?
0:09:37 > 0:09:41The Browns' New Forest adventure break is now just one day away,
0:09:41 > 0:09:43and because Elizabeth and Rosie are in charge,
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- it's up to them to do the packing. - It's all cycling gear.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Ew! Nothing out of here is going in the suitcase.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53I'm sure they'll find things that I wouldn't want them to take
0:09:53 > 0:09:56- lurking in the back of my wardrobe. - She can take these,
0:09:56 > 0:09:58just so she can look like a fool.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01They're bad enough packing a small bag for themselves,
0:10:01 > 0:10:03full of useless, impractical junk.
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Stink of Badger!
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Pant time. Urgh!
0:10:07 > 0:10:08SCREAMING
0:10:08 > 0:10:13There'll be major items of mine missing - socks or something.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Is that too horrible to take?
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Kept that one quiet, didn't he?
0:10:17 > 0:10:19It might be good if they took something to dress
0:10:19 > 0:10:21a bit smart in the evenings.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Well, we can make him wear this.
0:10:23 > 0:10:26Well, you did ask for it, Dad. It's the morning of the break
0:10:26 > 0:10:28and we've given the Brown family
0:10:28 > 0:10:32the Gimme A Break fam cam to capture all those special family moments.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36This is what I think of our new holiday.
0:10:36 > 0:10:38It's going to be absolutely great.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41Have I got chocolate round my mouth?
0:10:41 > 0:10:44OK, now, Mum just bought that.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46It is absolutely swedey.
0:10:46 > 0:10:48In other words, yuck.
0:10:48 > 0:10:50Stripes...
0:10:50 > 0:10:54were so...last season, in last season.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58I'm still concerned about my clothes.
0:10:58 > 0:11:01By the look of the wardrobe, there's loads of socks and underwear
0:11:01 > 0:11:05that have been taken, but next to no trousers.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08And I'm also very worried that I haven't got a bike to ride
0:11:08 > 0:11:10all of this and next week.
0:11:10 > 0:11:14- Really excited.- Yeah. I couldn't sleep last night.
0:11:14 > 0:11:16The wait's finally over,
0:11:16 > 0:11:19and the Brown family are whisked off to Chesterfield
0:11:19 > 0:11:22train station. Remember, Mum and Dad still have no idea where
0:11:22 > 0:11:27they're going. It's time the girls put them out of their misery.
0:11:27 > 0:11:32- Go on, Rosie, tell them.- OK. We're going to the New Forest.
0:11:32 > 0:11:34- The New Forest?- The New Forest?
0:11:34 > 0:11:37Yeah. Sounds like tents to me!
0:11:37 > 0:11:41I'm worried because I think the New Forest is overrun with wild ponies.
0:11:42 > 0:11:45And you might have to catch one and ride one. I'm very worried.
0:11:47 > 0:11:48So now that Mum and Dad
0:11:48 > 0:11:50know where they're going,
0:11:50 > 0:11:54and Dad's had a snooze, I wonder how they feel about the New Forest.
0:11:54 > 0:11:58It's full of wild ponies. If we're camping, we might get trampled on.
0:11:58 > 0:12:03The tents might get eaten or something, so I'm rather worried.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10New Forest ponies have existed in the area for over 1,000 years.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Around 4,000 of us roam free in the New Forest.
0:12:16 > 0:12:18After a four-hour journey,
0:12:18 > 0:12:21the family finally arrive at their break destination.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Let's choose the best bedrooms.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26Mum, Dad, go and get the bags. We're in charge.
0:12:26 > 0:12:28- Get the bags? - Yes, get the bags!
0:12:28 > 0:12:30Nice work, girls. Start as you mean to go on.
0:12:30 > 0:12:31It's really heavy!
0:12:31 > 0:12:35And after a quick look round... it's time to unpack.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Moment of truth, girls.
0:12:41 > 0:12:43What have you packed for us for this holiday?
0:12:44 > 0:12:47Tour de France T-shirt?!
0:12:47 > 0:12:49- Your ugly, ugly hat. - It's brilliant, this hat!
0:12:49 > 0:12:52A bow-tie! Maybe we're going out for dinner.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58Are you sure there's no cycling in this holiday?
0:12:58 > 0:13:00- I'm sure.- Yep. 100%.
0:13:00 > 0:13:01What's this?
0:13:01 > 0:13:03An antique silver waistcoat.
0:13:03 > 0:13:08That'll come in useful when I'm horse-riding. No swimming trunks!
0:13:08 > 0:13:11I'll have to find the darkest pair of underpants I've got.
0:13:11 > 0:13:13I'll wear those for swimming.
0:13:13 > 0:13:14SCREAM
0:13:14 > 0:13:15Seven out of ten, girls.
0:13:15 > 0:13:20The tie and the waistcoat, non-starter. No swimming trunks.
0:13:20 > 0:13:22Five is the best I can do.
0:13:22 > 0:13:23BOO-OO!
0:13:23 > 0:13:26I think we did well on the packing. They were just annoyed
0:13:26 > 0:13:29because we didn't pack what they wanted us to pack.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34- Hi there, guys!- Hi!
0:13:34 > 0:13:37Listen. Now that you're on your holiday, I think it's time
0:13:37 > 0:13:41for the Gimme A Break rules, decided by Elizabeth and Rosie.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43- Ready?- Yeah.- Rule Number 1.
0:13:43 > 0:13:47Mum, there are no bikes involved in this break at all.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50You're not even allowed to talk about them, OK?
0:13:50 > 0:13:53I think that will be a very hard rule to keep.
0:13:53 > 0:13:54Rule Number 2.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58Dad, the girls have had enough of you dragging them up mountains,
0:13:58 > 0:14:02taking them to art galleries and museums and memorials.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04Sorry, did I fall asleep, Dad?
0:14:04 > 0:14:07That's because museums are not the girls' idea of fun.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11Therefore, on this break, they're going to decide all the activities.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14I'm not happy about it, but I'll have to go along with it.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18They might have thought of something half-decent for us to do, I suppose.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20And finally, Rule Number 3.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23The girls can buy what they want, when they want, and they can eat
0:14:23 > 0:14:28any food they like. Remember, Mum and Dad, the girls' word is final.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30No arguments.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34- We're in charge!- And you've got to do everything we say.
0:14:34 > 0:14:37So we're just going to be eating burger and chips all week,
0:14:37 > 0:14:42- and we'll have no money left after the first day.- Take a chill pill!
0:14:42 > 0:14:44All right, guys. Have a fantastic break.
0:14:44 > 0:14:46Enjoy yourselves, and I'll be back later on
0:14:46 > 0:14:49to tell you about the all-important treat. See you soon.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51Bye!
0:14:51 > 0:14:54The hardest thing overall is going to be the general
0:14:54 > 0:14:56feeling of lack of control.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59Not to talk about cycling, I think I'm going to find impossible.
0:14:59 > 0:15:00HOOTER
0:15:01 > 0:15:06And Mum's not exaggerating, as she immediately breaks Rule Number 1.
0:15:06 > 0:15:07Get off!
0:15:08 > 0:15:10- Mum!- Get off!
0:15:12 > 0:15:13I'll take this.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16That's it. No bikes! No!
0:15:16 > 0:15:20And we all know what happens when you break a rule.
0:15:20 > 0:15:22You have to face the consequences.
0:15:22 > 0:15:24We saw you on that guy's bicycle,
0:15:24 > 0:15:27so we're going to confiscate the TV out of your room.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31Yes, and that's going to be bad for Badger, well Dad, as well.
0:15:31 > 0:15:34So my secret cycling has meant
0:15:34 > 0:15:37that Dad can't watch the television in bed?
0:15:37 > 0:15:38- Yeah.- And neither can you.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45We can't put it on here. Do you know why?
0:15:46 > 0:15:49Dad, come and sort this TV out.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57It's early on day one, and the girls have got one thing on their minds.
0:15:57 > 0:16:00Quick. We're going horse-riding today.
0:16:00 > 0:16:01I can't wait for this.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06Dad? What are you wearing?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09You packed it, so I'm going to wear it.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- OK.- Right.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14I'll probably be the stupidest-looking rider
0:16:14 > 0:16:16out there today, but I don't care.
0:16:16 > 0:16:19I'm up for it. They've set us up for this, so let's get on with it.
0:16:19 > 0:16:23I guess it's our fault for packing his bow-tie and suit.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26- So it's up to him really, what he wears.- Yeah.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29I fancy something small, like a donkey, but I'm a bit worried
0:16:29 > 0:16:33they might have reserved something like a carthorse or a Shire horse,
0:16:33 > 0:16:35with big hairy hooves and a bad temper.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50This should be interesting.
0:16:50 > 0:16:54Mum's never ridden before and is afraid of horses!
0:16:54 > 0:16:55I can smell the fear.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57It's very tall.
0:16:57 > 0:17:02The seat is above that lady's head! The one behind's even bigger.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16It feels very high. It's a long way off the ground.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20- Don't be nervous!- It's fun, Mum. - It's supposed to be fun, this?
0:17:20 > 0:17:22I'll tell you when we get back.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25I think I'm all right as long as it doesn't move.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28Unlucky, Mum, because it's starting to move now!
0:17:35 > 0:17:39- Going downhill a bit. - Nice horse...- Lean back, Mum.
0:17:44 > 0:17:48I think this is probably the best ride I've had, ever!
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Mum's doing great, considering she hasn't ridden.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55She looks really calm and she looks like she's enjoying herself.
0:17:55 > 0:17:58It's been nice doing something that the girls really enjoy.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01On the upside, they haven't moaned at all today.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03Well, they haven't, Mum, but what about you?
0:18:03 > 0:18:05My bottom is getting very sore!
0:18:05 > 0:18:08I think they've been surprised at how much fun we've had,
0:18:08 > 0:18:12because I don't think they expected it to be quite as easy as that.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15DAD: I think the outfit was great, really.
0:18:15 > 0:18:18It set me up like some great Victorian horseman for the day.
0:18:18 > 0:18:19I think it really helped.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22They kids did well choosing this gear for me, yes.
0:18:22 > 0:18:28After a three-hour trek, Mum makes it back to the stables in one piece.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33Oh! I'm walking like this now.
0:18:33 > 0:18:37That was everything I thought it would be, and I love this pony.
0:18:37 > 0:18:39Yes, it was great. I really enjoyed that.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Mum, you're walking like you've pooed yourself.
0:18:43 > 0:18:46She is as well! But don't worry, Mum.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50I'm sure the girls have thought of something to take your mind off it.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52Mum and Dad, how's the saddle sores?
0:18:52 > 0:18:54My bottom's still a bit sore,
0:18:54 > 0:18:57but we're ready for what you've got lined up next for us.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59We're going to a water park!
0:18:59 > 0:19:01A water park?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04A water park? Oh, no!
0:19:04 > 0:19:05Fun for all the family?
0:19:05 > 0:19:08If it says it on the sign, Mum, it must be true.
0:19:08 > 0:19:12The person that's definitely going to scream the most is Mum.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14Because she's always the screamer.
0:19:14 > 0:19:17I can't believe that I was worried about going on horses,
0:19:17 > 0:19:20at the thought of being dragged around behind a speedboat
0:19:20 > 0:19:21on a rubber ring.
0:19:23 > 0:19:26OK, hold tight!
0:19:43 > 0:19:48- That was absolutely terrifying. - That was great! Again, again!
0:19:48 > 0:19:51- I thought I was going to die. - Who wants to go on the banana now?
0:19:51 > 0:19:53- Me!- Hey!
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Does anybody not want to get wet?
0:19:56 > 0:19:59Unlucky, Mum. You're outvoted.
0:20:16 > 0:20:17< How was the water?
0:20:17 > 0:20:18Cold!
0:20:19 > 0:20:23That was the best thing I have ever done,
0:20:23 > 0:20:27and it was the most fun thing I've done in ages.
0:20:27 > 0:20:30We had to work as a team to keep it together, but we lost it in the end.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- But it was brilliant.- It might have cured Mum's saddle sores.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36It's frozen parts of me I didn't know I had.
0:20:36 > 0:20:39It isn't something we would normally do, but it was great.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41It is really good being in charge!
0:20:41 > 0:20:44It sure is, especially when you get to drag your parents
0:20:44 > 0:20:48around a theme park that's been opened just for you and your family!
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- I'm too small to go on this ride! - I'm too small for for this ride!
0:21:05 > 0:21:07I'm crying!
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Can we do that again?
0:21:13 > 0:21:18Uh-oh. Looks like Dad's spotted one of his boring museums.
0:21:18 > 0:21:20And it looks like he can't resist it!
0:21:20 > 0:21:22That is a blatant rule-break if ever I saw one.
0:21:28 > 0:21:29HOOTER
0:21:29 > 0:21:34- Dad!- Forfeit time!- You've broken Rule 2, no boring museums.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37This museum's not boring. It's fun!
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Yeah, fun it might be, Dad,
0:21:39 > 0:21:42but you'll be facing a forfeit in the morning.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44I wonder what the girls will dream up.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Come on, Dad. Forfeit time!
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Of course, it's the old tie round the head in a big inflatable ball
0:21:50 > 0:21:52on a swimming pool forfeit!
0:21:52 > 0:21:56Not seen that one for a while. Or ever, for that matter.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07I don't think I'll break the rules again!
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Midway through the family break, I think that Mum and Dad
0:22:14 > 0:22:18are finding it a little difficult to stick to the family rules.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20I think we should have a little competition.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22And, if we win, what do you think?
0:22:22 > 0:22:25- We get to break a rule.- Hmm.
0:22:25 > 0:22:28- All right, then. - But if you lose, you do a forfeit.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30OK.
0:22:34 > 0:22:36You've got to get it in the target.
0:22:36 > 0:22:37Shut up, you lot.
0:22:41 > 0:22:42Ohh!
0:22:54 > 0:22:56It looks like advantage Mum and Dad
0:22:56 > 0:22:59but can Elizabeth get the girls back in it?
0:22:59 > 0:23:00Well, done!
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Going for gold.
0:23:07 > 0:23:08Nice one, Dad.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12Oh! Mum and Dad have thrashed Rosie and Elizabeth six arrows to two!
0:23:12 > 0:23:14I wonder which rule Mum will break.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Can I take this one?
0:23:23 > 0:23:24See you, kids.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36- It ruined everything.- I know.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45It's the final day and there's just time for one more activity -
0:23:45 > 0:23:47the family cooking lesson.
0:23:47 > 0:23:48All aboard!
0:23:48 > 0:23:51But first, they have to buy the ingredients.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56And how did the girls choose to travel? By horse, of course.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00- Thank you very much. - You're very welcome.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05That's the food bought.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09It's time for the Brown family to get suited up and into the kitchen.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13- Did you get everything?- Yes.- Good. This is your dinner this evening.
0:24:13 > 0:24:16We're going to do bruschetta, a cassoulet
0:24:16 > 0:24:18and we're going to play
0:24:18 > 0:24:19with some pancakes at the end.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21Let's cook.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33That's the main dish done, guys.
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Probably, the best bit was making the pancakes.
0:24:41 > 0:24:42Oh, cheers!
0:24:47 > 0:24:50Rosie was the worst pancake-maker. She completely messed it up.
0:24:50 > 0:24:52I've done it wrong.
0:24:52 > 0:24:53Try that one again.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Brilliant. You've all done a great job.
0:24:55 > 0:24:58Thank you very much. I think you deserve to sit down now,
0:24:58 > 0:25:01and we'll present it to you as your meal.
0:25:01 > 0:25:02We had a lot of fun in the kitchen
0:25:02 > 0:25:05and it was really nice for us to cook together.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09At home they don't do much cooking, apart from a bit of baking.
0:25:15 > 0:25:16Excellent.
0:25:16 > 0:25:19It's been really nice, all the family being together,
0:25:19 > 0:25:21cooking and taking part.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23I think it's made the meal nicer as well,
0:25:23 > 0:25:26for us all to all eat it together afterwards.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28Hey!
0:25:30 > 0:25:33It's almost time to return home
0:25:33 > 0:25:37but the fun on this family break's not even near being over,
0:25:37 > 0:25:41because Elizabeth and Rosie have the chance to win a final treat.
0:25:46 > 0:25:52OK, guys. It's treat time. I'm about to ask you three questions.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54Get two of them right and you win the treat.
0:25:54 > 0:25:56Get two wrong and
0:25:56 > 0:26:01your parents will take to the skies, in the Gimme A Break helicopter.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04- Are you ready?- Yes.- OK.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06Question one.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10What did your mum say was the worst activity of the break?
0:26:16 > 0:26:18- She said Ringo Rides.- Yeah.- Oh!
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Yeah, she said Ringo Rides.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25Because it was cold. Yeah, Ringo Rides.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27- Are you sure?- Yeah.
0:26:27 > 0:26:29This is what your mum said.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33The worst activity for me on this break had to be the Ringo Rides.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37- They were horrific. - Yes!- Hurray!
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Good work, girls. OK, get this next question correct
0:26:40 > 0:26:43and you're up in the Gimme A Break helicopter.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47Get it wrong and your parents are back in business. Question two.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50How did your dad describe Rosie's pancake?
0:26:58 > 0:26:59Disaster!
0:27:02 > 0:27:04"Oh, that is terrible!"
0:27:04 > 0:27:07Girls, I now need your final answer.
0:27:07 > 0:27:10B, a disaster.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13You're saying B, disaster.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Here's what your dad said.
0:27:16 > 0:27:19If I had to sum up Rosie's pancake it would be one word,
0:27:19 > 0:27:22- it would be "disaster".- Yeah!
0:27:25 > 0:27:26Shoo, shoo!
0:27:28 > 0:27:29Hug!
0:27:38 > 0:27:39I love this.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42The flight was really, really good,
0:27:42 > 0:27:44experiencing something I'd never done before.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47I'm gutted, really. What about you?
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Yeah. I was looking forward to the helicopter ride.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I think the Gimme A Break experience has been wonderful for our family.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55It's brought us closer together.
0:27:55 > 0:27:58We've done things we wouldn't have done before
0:27:58 > 0:28:01and I would be open to doing more things again.
0:28:01 > 0:28:03Taking charge with all the rules,
0:28:03 > 0:28:05that was just awesome.
0:28:07 > 0:28:09Perfect end to a perfect holiday.
0:28:09 > 0:28:11Yeah!
