0:00:19 > 0:00:23This is Gimme A Break, the show where the kids take control of the family holiday.
0:00:23 > 0:00:27On Gimme A Break, the kids have all the say.
0:00:27 > 0:00:29They decide where they go, what activities they do.
0:00:29 > 0:00:33And, most importantly, they're in charge of the holiday rules.
0:00:34 > 0:00:37Today's family, who are going to get a break, are this lot...
0:00:37 > 0:00:40the Brooks family.
0:00:40 > 0:00:42Bossy banker, Dad...
0:00:43 > 0:00:46..cheeky ambulance controller, Mum,
0:00:46 > 0:00:49ten-year-old Joseph,
0:00:49 > 0:00:52eight-year-old Daniel
0:00:52 > 0:00:54and six-year-old Jacob.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57So, why do these three lads need to be given a break?
0:00:58 > 0:01:02Our dad always organises it.
0:01:02 > 0:01:06And he always wants to go on...warm places.
0:01:06 > 0:01:08I'd hate a cold holiday.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11And he chooses everywhere we go, without us saying.
0:01:11 > 0:01:14Cyprus, Spain...
0:01:14 > 0:01:19- Greece.- The worst holiday was when we went to Cornwall, camping.
0:01:19 > 0:01:23That much of water in the kid's tent, wasn't there?
0:01:23 > 0:01:28The water just comes in, animals come in.
0:01:28 > 0:01:31- It's terrible.- When the sun came out, it was beautiful.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36Every morning, she gets the gel out and does our hair.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38When we're, like, on holiday,
0:01:38 > 0:01:41she puts it up, even if we're just going to go in the pool.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45I gel their hair, and sort their hair out, in the morning.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47Because I want them to look smart for the day.
0:01:47 > 0:01:52But you do it in the morning, in the afternoon, in the night.
0:01:52 > 0:01:57My mum sees like a shoe shop, or a clothes shop, she just goes in.
0:01:57 > 0:02:01Last holiday in Cyprus, she bought about, cor, about 15 shoes.
0:02:01 > 0:02:04If I couldn't shop for a week,
0:02:04 > 0:02:09- I'd have the shakes.- You've got some serious family holiday problems,
0:02:09 > 0:02:12and there's only one way to solve it. By handing over control
0:02:12 > 0:02:15- of the family holiday to you three. What do you think?- Yes.- Yes?
0:02:15 > 0:02:18- Sounds good?- Yes.- I thought you might say that.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21And that means, Mum and Dad, it's time for the Parent's Promise.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25Hands on hearts and read out that...
0:02:32 > 0:02:35Yeah. I don't think that you two enjoyed that.
0:02:35 > 0:02:38- But I think that you three did. Does that sound good?- Brilliant!
0:02:38 > 0:02:42- Jacob, who is in control?- Us. - Wonderful. Which means, Mum and Dad,
0:02:42 > 0:02:45if you'd like to go inside. And don't come out here,
0:02:45 > 0:02:48- cos we need to talk holidays, all right?- Get in!- Go on,
0:02:48 > 0:02:50get rid of them.
0:02:50 > 0:02:53Right, this is now your chance, without your mum and dad,
0:02:53 > 0:02:57- to tell me what you want. - I want to go somewhere different.
0:02:57 > 0:03:02And do climbing, skiing and go to more waterfalls.
0:03:02 > 0:03:05- Do you want to go somewhere hot, or cold?- Hot.- Seeing a bear.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Hold on. You're putting the pressure on here, seeing a bear.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Do you want to see a bear, Jacob?
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Yeah, because I want to see it bite Daniel's head off.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16No! Look, put your stick down. Let's talk about holidays.
0:03:16 > 0:03:18Your brothers have mentioned skiing.
0:03:18 > 0:03:20- How you do you feel about going skiing?- Yeah.
0:03:20 > 0:03:22- Why?- Because I haven't been skiing.
0:03:22 > 0:03:26- OK. So, you've never done that before. What's that?- Mum.- Where?
0:03:26 > 0:03:31- Go away!- Go away, shut the window! - Mum, you're not allowed
0:03:31 > 0:03:33to listen to this. Close the window.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35- I need some fresh air. - Jacob, how naughty is your mum?
0:03:35 > 0:03:37- Naughty.- Very naughty.
0:03:37 > 0:03:41Which means, when you make the rules for the holiday, what can you do?
0:03:41 > 0:03:44- Boss her around. - You can boss her around, precisely.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I've heard what they'd like
0:03:46 > 0:03:48and I've got three amazing holidays to choose from.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51But I'm not going to let them pick one just yet.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53They'll have to work out what their break choices are,
0:03:53 > 0:03:55from a collection of cryptic clues.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00And the boys are having trouble getting Joseph into a harness.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04But mind you, it can't help wearing goggles, can it?
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Skiing, or maybe bungee jumping?
0:04:06 > 0:04:11- But where?- Well, it could be France, Austria, Switzerland.
0:04:14 > 0:04:18I think there'll be skiing and climbing,
0:04:18 > 0:04:22because of the goggles and the harness. OK, got a clue.
0:04:22 > 0:04:27"Bear in mind what you'll find at the end of the Rockies road."
0:04:27 > 0:04:30Bear... Must be those...
0:04:30 > 0:04:33bear prints. What's this?
0:04:33 > 0:04:37- Gross!- It looks like maple syrup.
0:04:37 > 0:04:42- It stinks!- We put our hands in something like maple syrup.
0:04:42 > 0:04:44And it was horrible.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47- And there's a flag.- There's a flag.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49We think it's Canada, because...
0:04:49 > 0:04:53wrapped over the bowl was a Canada flag.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57They're off to a restaurant for Break Number Two.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01- But there's something very odd on the menu.- Tennis ball?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14Cow, ball,
0:05:14 > 0:05:18- and castanets.- Caesar said, hola.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20So, it might be Spanish?
0:05:20 > 0:05:27"Would Mum and Dad like to be served this Holi-DIA?"
0:05:27 > 0:05:29Probably Spanish for holiday.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32"Serve" means they serve the ball?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36The cow.
0:05:36 > 0:05:41I think we might be helping a farmer milk his cows, or her.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44And we might go and see a tennis match.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50The boys weren't waiting around for the clues to their final break.
0:05:52 > 0:05:57"Wear the blindfold and follow the sound."
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Well, a horse shoe means horse riding,
0:05:59 > 0:06:02so I think we're going horse riding somewhere.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06Listen to the sound. FOGHORN WAILS
0:06:06 > 0:06:09- Sounds like a foghorn. - There's something stuck on my feet.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14I think we're near it.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22- Wait a minute, this feels like ice. - Cold.
0:06:22 > 0:06:27I think the holiday is going to be cold.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30This is a Viking's helmet, because I know the shape of it.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33I think the holiday's going to be about rowing a boat.
0:06:33 > 0:06:36Because I know Vikings all cross the sea in boats.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39Where do cavemen come from?
0:06:39 > 0:06:40That's it, clues over.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Have the boys guessed the breaks on offer, though?
0:06:42 > 0:06:44And which one will they choose?
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- Did you enjoy trying to work out what your breaks were?- Yes.
0:06:50 > 0:06:53- So, what do we think Break Number One might be?- Canada.- Yeah.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56All three of you are very clever, because you guessed right.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- Do you want to look at Break Number One?- Yeah.- Which is...
0:06:58 > 0:07:03a winter sports adventure in Canada.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05Take a look at this. Have a look.
0:07:05 > 0:07:08You could be jetting off to the Rockies,
0:07:08 > 0:07:12famous for grizzly bears, amazing powder skiing.
0:07:12 > 0:07:16And how about trying out husky sledding?
0:07:16 > 0:07:17Ah, look at that, man.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20- You said cold?- Yeah.- You said bears?
0:07:20 > 0:07:22- I've got is sorted, right?- Yeah.
0:07:22 > 0:07:25So, first impressions, could that be a potential winner?
0:07:25 > 0:07:28- Yeah.- Time to crank up the pressure and talk about Break Number Two.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30you've got a big decision to make today.
0:07:30 > 0:07:32- Would you like to find out about Break Number Two?- Yes.
0:07:32 > 0:07:36What about if I told you that Break Number Two is...
0:07:36 > 0:07:39- a sports adventure break...- Come on!
0:07:39 > 0:07:42- Yes.- ..in Spain, hey? Have a look.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47Are you the next Andy Murray? Find out, with some top tennis coaching
0:07:47 > 0:07:50at a resort in southern Spain. Dad can leave his walking boots behind,
0:07:50 > 0:07:54as you could all be off-road mountain biking.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- Yes.- What do we think?- Amazing!
0:07:56 > 0:07:59- I really want to do it, because I absolutely love sports.- Brill.
0:07:59 > 0:08:03- What do you reckon Break Number Three might be?- A trip in Norway
0:08:03 > 0:08:05- on a big boat.- Why a big boat? - Because the Vikings
0:08:05 > 0:08:10- used to ride boats.- You're kind of half right and half wrong.
0:08:10 > 0:08:15Because Break Number Three is a Viking experience...
0:08:16 > 0:08:17..in Iceland.
0:08:17 > 0:08:20This could be off-road driving across the wilderness.
0:08:20 > 0:08:23Riding Icelandic horses,
0:08:23 > 0:08:27and relaxing in the volcanic waters of the Blue Lagoon.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30You've got a big decision to make. I'll come back in a few minutes
0:08:30 > 0:08:33to find out which one you've chosen. Good luck, Jacob, good luck, boys.
0:08:33 > 0:08:36Joseph and Jacob want Iceland. But Dan is hooked on Canada.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40The big decision comes down to the toss of a coin.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- It's tails.- OK, then, boys.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44Budge up, Jacob, let me in.
0:08:44 > 0:08:49It is decision time. Tell me, which break have you gone for?
0:08:49 > 0:08:52- Iceland.- Tails, and Iceland.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56- So, you're very happy?- Yeah.- Yeah, very happy indeed. Well, lads,
0:08:56 > 0:09:00I've got one last thing to tell you. At the end of your holiday,
0:09:00 > 0:09:06- you'll get the chance to play for one last treat.- What is the treat?
0:09:06 > 0:09:08However... Well, you'll find out on your holiday,
0:09:08 > 0:09:11but if you get the challenge that I set you wrong...
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- your parents win the treat.- Ooh!
0:09:17 > 0:09:19So, there it is. The Viking experience in Iceland.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21Not exactly the sunny beach holiday the Brooks are used to.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25But this isn't the usual way the Brooks choose their holidays.
0:09:25 > 0:09:28But how will Dad cope, not being the one in charge?
0:09:28 > 0:09:32How will Mum feel in the cold? And who will win the final treat?
0:09:35 > 0:09:39With their break just one day away, and Mum and Dad still none the wiser
0:09:39 > 0:09:43on where they're going, it was up to the boys to pack.
0:09:43 > 0:09:48They'll just break into fights, and rolling around, and mucking around.
0:09:48 > 0:09:52- And, so, their attention span will be two minutes, max.- Oh, no.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55I would feel absolutely awful
0:09:55 > 0:09:59that I would have to go on holidays with no make-up.
0:09:59 > 0:10:03- What's this?- I have to do the lipstick.- Nice.
0:10:03 > 0:10:06- They're probably just laughing at the stuff in my drawer.- Yeah, go on.
0:10:06 > 0:10:08- They'll make her look funny. - You like it?
0:10:08 > 0:10:11Good for outside, especially the cold.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15I'm just hoping that those children have not thrown it all in.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17I've been up till one, two o'clock in the morning,
0:10:17 > 0:10:19this week, ironing all the clothes.
0:10:19 > 0:10:26'I always pack my suitcase. I don't even trust Sian to pack it.'
0:10:26 > 0:10:29I like it really tidy, organised.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32- So, I can get something really quickly.- I'll get it zipped up.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34- I think you might have a shock.- Mmm.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39Mum, Dad, we're ready to go!
0:10:39 > 0:10:41If the boys are going to get the family to the airport on time,
0:10:41 > 0:10:45they've got to take the driving seat. Not literally though, Jacob.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51At the airport, Mum and Dad still don't know where they're going.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53And with blindfolds and headphones on,
0:10:53 > 0:10:55there's no chance of finding out.
0:10:57 > 0:11:00Did you pack your bags yourselves?
0:11:00 > 0:11:01- Yes.- OK.
0:11:09 > 0:11:12- Are we on a plane?- 'Yes, that's right, Mum, you're on a plane.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15'And someone's got a message for you.'
0:11:15 > 0:11:19Joseph, Daniel and Jacob, I'm taking you on...
0:11:19 > 0:11:25- a Gimme A Break experience to Iceland.- 'There you go. Mum and Dad
0:11:25 > 0:11:28'know they're off to Iceland. And even though it's quite cold there,
0:11:28 > 0:11:32'Mum seems rather pleased. Come on, boys, pucker up for a kiss.'
0:11:35 > 0:11:40Hopefully, my children have packed enough clothes for me to be warm.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44I hope that some extra socks have been put in.
0:11:44 > 0:11:47I guess I'm just going to be walking up mountains,
0:11:47 > 0:11:49- and through snow, and making snowmen?- No.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53It only takes three hours to fly to Reykjavik, the capital of Iceland.
0:11:53 > 0:11:54And despite its name,
0:11:54 > 0:11:58Iceland isn't actually covered in ice. The Vikings chose the name
0:11:58 > 0:12:01because they visited one of the many icy glaciers first.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04And when they land, the Brooks head straight from the airport
0:12:04 > 0:12:07to their hotel, with their trusty Gimme A Break Fam Cam,
0:12:07 > 0:12:12to capture special holiday moments, like a mad Viking.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15Welcome to the Viking Village!
0:12:15 > 0:12:17Come out of the bus!
0:12:17 > 0:12:19There's nothing to laugh about.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21Hurry up, follow me, come on!
0:12:21 > 0:12:24One line. Come, come, hurry up!
0:12:24 > 0:12:30The people in the hotel want to sleep as well. So behave, OK?
0:12:30 > 0:12:32I'll see you in the morning.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38If you thought that was scary, Mum and Dad,
0:12:38 > 0:12:42- take a look at what the boys have packed for you.- What's this?
0:12:42 > 0:12:44Why have I got your father's shoes in here?
0:12:44 > 0:12:51What have you got my work's tie for? It's nice you've packed everything.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53Mum, have you got any hand luggage?
0:12:53 > 0:12:56- Just a little bag.- Can I check?- Yeah.
0:12:59 > 0:13:00Unbelievable!
0:13:00 > 0:13:03Five minutes in Iceland and Mum's been caught out already.
0:13:03 > 0:13:05The boys were in charge of packing.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07What are these?
0:13:10 > 0:13:15You might be controlling this holiday. I'm still your mother.
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- What is the forfeit? - You'll find out later.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19Do you want me to spell it out for you? F-O-R...
0:13:19 > 0:13:23Well, you might not be able to spell forfeit, Joseph, but you're right.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26- Mum deserves one of them. - I thought my kids knew me.
0:13:26 > 0:13:27And I thought they knew what I wore.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30And none of the stuff in that case is what I wear.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33My ambulance service tie...
0:13:33 > 0:13:34they put that in.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37They've put in a bather and...
0:13:37 > 0:13:39my summer Crocs.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Iceland?
0:13:42 > 0:13:46And to cap it all, I've got my little running...
0:13:46 > 0:13:50vest, when I go across a glacier, later on.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54When we go on holidays, we have to put your stuff away when we unpack.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56- So, who's going to put ours away? - Because we're in control,
0:13:56 > 0:14:00- we tell you what to do.- Well, it's not fair. It's not normal.
0:14:04 > 0:14:08Next day, Dad's pleased to find snow and doesn't waste any time
0:14:08 > 0:14:10getting his own back for having to tidy up the room.
0:14:10 > 0:14:14But time for the boys to remind the parents who's in charge.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19Hello, guys, it's me.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22I hope the Vikings have given you a warm welcome. Now,
0:14:22 > 0:14:24in case you'd forgotten, Mum and Dad,
0:14:24 > 0:14:28the boys are in charge of the Gimme A Break holiday rules.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31And, brace yourselves, because here they come.
0:14:31 > 0:14:35- Go on, if you have to.- Go on. - Rule number one. Now, Mum,
0:14:35 > 0:14:38the boys know that you don't just buy the odd souvenir from holiday.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41You are a shopaholic. Therefore, their rule
0:14:41 > 0:14:45is that you're allowed to buy one item, for the whole break.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48- One thing?- Yup, one thing.
0:14:48 > 0:14:49- You won't do it.- Ah, but you could.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51- What do you think, shall I?- No!
0:14:53 > 0:14:55I like the idea of her buying only one thing.
0:14:55 > 0:15:00Rule number two. Dad, the boys are bored by your long walks.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03So, on this break, you get to go on one walk.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05- And the boys decide how long it will be.- Right.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07So, let me get this right now.
0:15:07 > 0:15:11What is the longest amount of time I can walk for?
0:15:11 > 0:15:1315 minutes.
0:15:13 > 0:15:14- 15?- Yeah.
0:15:14 > 0:15:17That's just... But that's not fair.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21- 15 minutes.- Rule number three. Mum, you're forever spiking
0:15:21 > 0:15:24the boys' hair up with gel, even before they go swimming!
0:15:24 > 0:15:25So, on this break,
0:15:25 > 0:15:29the rule is, you're not allowed to meddle with their hair, at all.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33- Yeah!- All right, guys. Well, I'll be back in a few days
0:15:33 > 0:15:35to tell you about your chance to play for an amazing treat.
0:15:35 > 0:15:38But, for now, have a great holiday.
0:15:38 > 0:15:40I don't think the rules are fair at all.
0:15:40 > 0:15:43Because how am I going to survive, in five days,
0:15:43 > 0:15:45with only going for one 15-minute walk?
0:15:45 > 0:15:50It's second nature to me, to put my hand up to do their hair.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53So, it's going to be really hard.
0:15:53 > 0:15:57If Mum and Dad disobey them, there'll be big consequences.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Right, on with the break. And the boys wanted action.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04So, how about some off-road, ice-cold, Jeep driving?
0:16:04 > 0:16:08OK, we're in charge. So, we get to choose who's going to be driving.
0:16:08 > 0:16:12- Mummy!- Mummy! - Now, the rules are simple.
0:16:12 > 0:16:16Mum just has to follow the Jeep. How hard can that be?
0:16:16 > 0:16:20OK, Mum, please turn on your lights, just for me to see you.
0:16:20 > 0:16:22That means, what?
0:16:22 > 0:16:26- That he can't see anything.- How does he actually know where he's going?
0:16:26 > 0:16:29Do we know where we're going?
0:16:29 > 0:16:34- What gear do you reckon I'm in now? - So, boys, how do you think
0:16:34 > 0:16:37- Mum is getting on with driving?- She hasn't got out of first gear yet.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41I think I'm doing all right. I think I'm a 10 out of 10.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45- We are going to the river, we need cross the river in front of us.- No!
0:16:45 > 0:16:47I'm not going over no river.
0:16:47 > 0:16:51Yes, you are, Mum. That's exactly what you're doing.
0:16:51 > 0:16:56Oh, my God! No! He's got something wrong with him, I tell you.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Come on!
0:16:59 > 0:17:02- Keep going!- No, no.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05No, no! No!
0:17:05 > 0:17:09I really need to go for a wee. No...
0:17:09 > 0:17:15Agh! No, I'm not going there. No, no!
0:17:15 > 0:17:17No! THE BOYS LAUGH
0:17:17 > 0:17:20Agh! Agh!
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Do it, Mum!- We're going in! We're going in!
0:17:31 > 0:17:36- Take your time. Use your breaks. - Agh! Agh!
0:17:36 > 0:17:43- Agh!- Use your breaks.- Agh!
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Agh!
0:17:45 > 0:17:48Agh!
0:17:59 > 0:18:04I closed my eyes and, just like, let the vehicle come down.
0:18:04 > 0:18:11And then it was just like one massive bump...
0:18:12 > 0:18:14My head's all right.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16It's the other end that's a problem.
0:18:16 > 0:18:19Mummy's driving was 10 out of 10.
0:18:19 > 0:18:22I think the rating of Mummy's driving was seven.
0:18:22 > 0:18:26- I think it's 10, definitely. - It was brilliant.
0:18:26 > 0:18:29We're not going back that way, are we?
0:18:30 > 0:18:34And after Mum's impressive driving, the boys choose a more relaxing way
0:18:34 > 0:18:38to spend the afternoon, in one of Iceland's thermal spas. You know,
0:18:38 > 0:18:41maybe those swimming things are going to come in handy after all.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Mum deserves to be pampered,
0:18:50 > 0:18:54because she drove in the snow, on the off-road driving.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57And she got a bit stressed out, but she still done it.
0:18:57 > 0:19:00- Now, tip it all over her face.- No!
0:19:00 > 0:19:02- Tip it all over her.- No!
0:19:06 > 0:19:08I love my kids!
0:19:08 > 0:19:10I don't think Mum's going to meddle with our hair.
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Because she's already got one forfeit, and our forfeits
0:19:13 > 0:19:17- are really gruesome.- They'll just have to look after it today.
0:19:17 > 0:19:20Because I don't think I can afford any more forfeits, can I?
0:19:20 > 0:19:21Can I give you a tip?
0:19:21 > 0:19:24- Yes.- Sort your own hair out first.
0:19:25 > 0:19:29The following morning, the Brooks family's Viking adventure continues
0:19:29 > 0:19:31on Iceland's famous pocket-sized horses.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39Today, Icelandic horses are used for racing.
0:19:39 > 0:19:42I've ridden more camels than I have horses, to be honest.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53Why did you decide to get on backwards?
0:19:53 > 0:19:55Oh, we're going a bit fast through here.
0:19:55 > 0:19:59Iceland's always had loads of birds and sea life.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02But before the Vikings, there was only one land mammal,
0:20:02 > 0:20:04the arctic fox.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15I'm going to have a sore bum tomorrow.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Probably the most scared going into it. But at the end of it,
0:20:18 > 0:20:20I felt pretty comfortable.
0:20:20 > 0:20:24And it was nowhere near as bad as the camel was.
0:20:24 > 0:20:28I kept going up and down like that. Mum, while I was doing that,
0:20:28 > 0:20:30you were laughing so much, you almost fell off.
0:20:30 > 0:20:33- Shall we all have a conversation going like this?- Yeah.
0:20:33 > 0:20:36Dad might have been worried about the horse riding at the start,
0:20:36 > 0:20:40but I think the whole family had a great time. The boys decided
0:20:40 > 0:20:44to give Mum and Dad the afternoon off. And Mum ended up shopping,
0:20:44 > 0:20:46in Iceland's capital city, Reykjavik.
0:20:46 > 0:20:48But the boys were watching her every move.
0:20:48 > 0:20:50- Bought anything?- No, I'm looking.
0:20:50 > 0:20:54You can buy anything - from Viking clothes, to shoes made of fish skin.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56But can Mum resist buying more than one thing?
0:20:56 > 0:20:59It depends on how much it is.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02I haven't got my credit card on me, either. Stuart has.
0:21:02 > 0:21:04It's expensive to shop in Iceland,
0:21:04 > 0:21:07as most things need to be imported from the rest of Europe.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09The currency is called krona.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12And by the look on Dad's face, Mum's spent quite a lot.
0:21:12 > 0:21:15Mum gets so distracted by the shopping,
0:21:15 > 0:21:18she forgets about the rules. Mum, what are you doing?!
0:21:18 > 0:21:23- I don't think she's going to get away with that.- Forfeit! Forfeit!
0:21:23 > 0:21:28- No! I do it, I do it, automatically. - Forfeit!
0:21:31 > 0:21:34Jacob got his hands on a Viking hat just like mine.
0:21:34 > 0:21:37But, while he and Dad left Mum alone, look what happened!
0:21:37 > 0:21:40- No!- You haven't, have you?
0:21:40 > 0:21:41Just a few things.
0:21:41 > 0:21:46A few things?! Mum, you're having a bad day.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50- You only had an hour.- Thank you, thank you. Get off.
0:21:50 > 0:21:53Now, what's in this?
0:21:53 > 0:21:55- You're a shopaholic. - I can't help it.- Forfeit!
0:21:55 > 0:22:00The forfeit could never be as bad as having to give up shopping.
0:22:00 > 0:22:03Mum's broken the rules, so she's going to pay!
0:22:03 > 0:22:05But what will the boys decide?
0:22:05 > 0:22:08You, you used to take us to boring old restaurants.
0:22:08 > 0:22:13Today, we're going to take you to a restaurant we want to go to.
0:22:13 > 0:22:17And we are going to choose what you're eating, Mum.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22So, it's the family's final night.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25And, to wrap up their Viking experience,
0:22:25 > 0:22:28the boys have chosen a Viking feast.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30But there's something special on the menu for Mum.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33This is the ultimate forfeit.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36Mum, you have broken three rules.
0:22:36 > 0:22:41So, you're going to have a punishment. One, you done our hair.
0:22:41 > 0:22:45Two, you packed clothes without asking us. And three...
0:22:45 > 0:22:47She bought loads of stuff.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51This is for you, Mum.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Oh, my God! It's the head of somebody.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02- Lamb's head. - We have brought you a plate
0:23:02 > 0:23:05with all traditional Viking food.
0:23:05 > 0:23:09Now, we are able to explain for you what you are going to eat.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15This is dry fish, very healthy.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19This is the stuff that makes the Icelandic men famous as lovers.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21This is the testicle of the lamb.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Here, you have a smiling head of a sheep.
0:23:24 > 0:23:27He's not smiling at me, is he?!
0:23:27 > 0:23:30Everybody has to try. Want to try the eye?
0:23:30 > 0:23:32NO!
0:23:32 > 0:23:37- Can you get the eye out for my mum? - No!- Thank you, thank you very much,
0:23:37 > 0:23:40- thank you.- Oh!
0:23:43 > 0:23:48- Yeah... You eat it. - THEY SHRIEK
0:23:48 > 0:23:51I hope it tasted better than it smells.
0:23:51 > 0:23:56- You have to eat one, one of everything.- No, I haven't.
0:23:56 > 0:23:58- Yeah, you have to!- A testicle.
0:23:58 > 0:24:00What's that bit sticking out?
0:24:00 > 0:24:03- Oh, Mum, you're not going to do it, are you?- Eat it.
0:24:03 > 0:24:07There's a bit of a worm, or something, there, look!
0:24:07 > 0:24:08It's a vein.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11It's a vein. Don't worry about it.
0:24:11 > 0:24:12It's just a vein.
0:24:12 > 0:24:15Hang on.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17She's going to do it, she is...
0:24:17 > 0:24:20Oh, Mum!
0:24:20 > 0:24:24Oh, quick, how did that taste? Yuk!
0:24:28 > 0:24:32- Have I really eaten that?- I'm not kissing you ever again now!
0:24:32 > 0:24:33I don't blame you, Daniel.
0:24:33 > 0:24:37- I wouldn't kiss your mum after that.- I couldn't swallow it.
0:24:37 > 0:24:39It just wouldn't go down properly.
0:24:41 > 0:24:45I thought my mum was absolutely bonkers to eat all that.
0:24:45 > 0:24:46By the end of the holiday,
0:24:46 > 0:24:50it was very hard to actually stick to those rules.
0:24:50 > 0:24:55- And I knew I had to pay the price, and tonight, I have.- Well, Mum
0:24:55 > 0:24:58rose to the challenge. But now, the pressure's on the boys.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01As the family stand at Gullfoss Waterfall,
0:25:01 > 0:25:04on the final day of their break, their big moment's arrived.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Will they win the treat, riding with top Skidoo riders,
0:25:08 > 0:25:10across one of Iceland's vast glaciers?
0:25:10 > 0:25:14OK, Joseph, Daniel, Jacob, this is it.
0:25:14 > 0:25:18Time to play for one last amazing treat.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20Now, I'm about to ask you three questions.
0:25:20 > 0:25:22Get two of them right, and you win the treat.
0:25:22 > 0:25:27Get two wrong, and it's your mum and dad who win the treat.
0:25:27 > 0:25:29Good luck.
0:25:29 > 0:25:32Here we go with question one.
0:25:32 > 0:25:36What did your mum say was her most memorable moment of the break?
0:25:36 > 0:25:37Was it, A...
0:25:37 > 0:25:40eating the Icelandic food forfeit,
0:25:40 > 0:25:42or, B...driving the Jeep
0:25:42 > 0:25:43into the river?
0:25:46 > 0:25:52- The answer is - B, driving the big Jeep into the river.- OK, guys,
0:25:52 > 0:25:55you're saying B, driving the Jeep into the river.
0:25:55 > 0:25:59- Here's what your mum said. - The most memorable moment
0:25:59 > 0:26:03of this holiday has got to be driving the Jeep into the river.
0:26:03 > 0:26:08- Yes! Come on.- Fantastic start. Well, done, boys. And that means
0:26:08 > 0:26:11if you get the next question right, the treat is all yours.
0:26:11 > 0:26:16OK, question two. How did your dad describe the holiday?
0:26:16 > 0:26:19Did he say - A, never a dull moment,
0:26:19 > 0:26:21or B, scary?
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- A.- A.- A, got to be A.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32OK, guys, I'm going to have to push you for an answer.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36The answer is A,
0:26:36 > 0:26:39never a dull moment.
0:26:39 > 0:26:44OK, you're going with A, never a dull moment.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Here's what your dad said.
0:26:46 > 0:26:47Erm...
0:26:47 > 0:26:51- Never a dull moment.- Yay!- Yes! And they've done it.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54They can saddle up and have the adrenaline-fuelled trip
0:26:54 > 0:26:56of a lifetime. Well done, lads.
0:27:11 > 0:27:13Wow, look at that!
0:27:30 > 0:27:32It was just lovely, to spend some time
0:27:32 > 0:27:36doing the most amazing activities,
0:27:36 > 0:27:39that you wouldn't dream of ever doing.
0:27:39 > 0:27:41We spent the whole of this holiday together.
0:27:41 > 0:27:44- You can't exchange that for anything.- That was awesome!
