0:00:20 > 0:00:27.
0:00:49 > 0:00:53This is Gimme A Break, where kids take over the family holiday.
0:00:53 > 0:00:58It's show time. On Gimme A Break, the kids have all the say.
0:00:58 > 0:01:00They decide where they go, what activities to do
0:01:00 > 0:01:02and, most importantly,
0:01:02 > 0:01:04they're in charge of the holiday rules.
0:01:06 > 0:01:09Today, it's the Griffin family.
0:01:09 > 0:01:12Meet the Griffins. Postman dad,
0:01:12 > 0:01:13housewife mum,
0:01:13 > 0:01:1512-year-old Joe
0:01:15 > 0:01:17and 11-year-old Jack.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20So why do the kids need to be given a break?
0:01:20 > 0:01:23My mum and dad are always lazy.
0:01:25 > 0:01:26Mum never joins in.
0:01:26 > 0:01:27I'm a girly girl
0:01:27 > 0:01:30and I like doing
0:01:30 > 0:01:31serene, relaxing things.
0:01:31 > 0:01:36One thing mum does like doing on holidays is shopping.
0:01:36 > 0:01:38- Accessory shops...- Perfume Shops...
0:01:38 > 0:01:40..jewellery shops...
0:01:40 > 0:01:41..handbag shops.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43And she drags me and Joe behind her.
0:01:43 > 0:01:44They like doing that.
0:01:44 > 0:01:46My dad is a bit of a moaner.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49"Oh, I don't want to do that."
0:01:49 > 0:01:52What starts it off is they do a lot of moaning.
0:01:52 > 0:01:55You can't go talk to him, because he just goes, "Ssh."
0:01:55 > 0:01:58Moan, moan, moan. And I might moan because of that.
0:01:58 > 0:02:00When it's really, really hot,
0:02:00 > 0:02:04he'll just go, "Oh, it's freezing. It's going to kill me, this is."
0:02:04 > 0:02:08It takes me probably half an hour to get into the sea.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10And that's just up to my kneecaps.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14We go on caravan,
0:02:14 > 0:02:16boring, boring holidays.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20- SCREAMING - It's interesting to me,
0:02:20 > 0:02:22but of course the boys find it really quite sad.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26We take their views into account but, at the end of the day,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28- we do what we want to do. - We're mum and dad.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30- We are. - And that's what mums and dads do.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Right, Griffins, quite frankly, this is not on. OK? Family holidays
0:02:34 > 0:02:37are meant to be fun, so it's time to do something about it.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Boys, are you ready to take control of the family holiday?
0:02:40 > 0:02:45- Whoo!- Hands on hearts please, and read out the parents' promise.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48"We, the parents of Joe and Jack,
0:02:48 > 0:02:52"hereby hand over control of the next family holiday."
0:02:52 > 0:02:56The holiday is yours, gentlemen.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58We'll chat about holidays. Parents,
0:02:58 > 0:03:00I'm sure you've got something interesting to do.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03If you'd like to go off in that direction and do it.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Let's go.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08'What do the boys want in the next family break? I went to find out
0:03:08 > 0:03:10'in the dreaded caravan.'
0:03:10 > 0:03:13I'm not able to get my head in here. Look at this, this is tiny.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16What do you want from your holiday?
0:03:16 > 0:03:19Something we'll never forget.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22- We love animals. - My dad, he hates the water.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24- But who's in charge of a holiday? - Us.- Exactly.
0:03:24 > 0:03:28- Hold on a minute!- Get out of here.
0:03:28 > 0:03:29Something every day.
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Busy, busy, busy.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33So I've heard what they're looking for
0:03:33 > 0:03:36and we've lined up three great breaks to choose from,
0:03:36 > 0:03:40but can they figure out the holidays on offer
0:03:40 > 0:03:42from the cryptic clues we've left?
0:03:42 > 0:03:45First up, all Joe and Jack have to do is bring
0:03:45 > 0:03:47the treasure chest back from the island.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50Oh, yes, dressed up as pirates.
0:03:50 > 0:03:52Oh, this is really working my muscles.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56But as soon as they set sail, Joe gets into troubled waters.
0:03:56 > 0:03:58- I need help.- Land ahoy!
0:04:01 > 0:04:02I've got it.
0:04:02 > 0:04:04Safely back on dry land,
0:04:04 > 0:04:06the boys examine the clues.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09- Coconuts.- A map.
0:04:09 > 0:04:14We looked at the clues and we thought it was going to be somewhere hot.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20- Oh, a ship.- It might be a ship.
0:04:20 > 0:04:23I think this break will be...
0:04:23 > 0:04:27- going on a pirate ship. - If it was that kind of holiday,
0:04:27 > 0:04:31- then I wouldn't enjoy it because I get seasick really easily.
0:04:31 > 0:04:32Oh dear.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35Maybe that's not a good choice after all.
0:04:35 > 0:04:36Right, on to 2, where I've set
0:04:36 > 0:04:38the boys a slippery task,
0:04:38 > 0:04:41to rescue these puppies from the middle of the ice.
0:04:43 > 0:04:45Joe, come on. Go slow if you want.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Come on, Joe. I've seen the huskies.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51We found two huskies and a card.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52It says:
0:04:55 > 0:04:57All right, Joe, the flag.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58And this is the Finland flag.
0:04:58 > 0:05:03Well, we found some really strange meat.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06It was something like dog or husky or something.
0:05:08 > 0:05:11- That's a disco ball. - Probably the Northern Lights.
0:05:11 > 0:05:16We think it was Finland and we think it will be like
0:05:16 > 0:05:17to go on a husky ride or something.
0:05:17 > 0:05:21Well, it will be fun for me and Jack but Mum and Dad won't like it.
0:05:21 > 0:05:23They don't really like the cold.
0:05:23 > 0:05:25Right, time for break 3.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27Joe and Jack are getting
0:05:27 > 0:05:29all wrapped up in this one.
0:05:30 > 0:05:32Tuck it into my shoe.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38There was this figure thing of Tutankhamen.
0:05:38 > 0:05:41All that gold stuff in the tombs and everything.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44And my brother had to put some goggles on and dip his head
0:05:44 > 0:05:47in the water to read out the clue.
0:05:47 > 0:05:48It says...
0:05:52 > 0:05:55I think it's a scuba-diving
0:05:55 > 0:05:59or water holiday and in Egypt.
0:05:59 > 0:06:01Right, that is it.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04Clues over, but have they guessed the breaks on offer
0:06:04 > 0:06:06and which one will they choose?
0:06:07 > 0:06:11Now then, we're about to find out where you could be going
0:06:11 > 0:06:13on your break of a lifetime. Excited?
0:06:13 > 0:06:17- Yes.- Yes.- Right, do you want to talk breaks?- Yes.- OK.
0:06:17 > 0:06:22Break 1. It's a seven-day Caribbean cruise.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25- Oh yeah.- Would you like to know a bit more about it?
0:06:25 > 0:06:28- Yes.- Yeah. - Take a look at this, have a look.
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Forget the rowing boats, boys, on this break
0:06:30 > 0:06:33you'd be living on the world's largest passenger ship,
0:06:33 > 0:06:37complete with swimming pools, climbing wall and its own ice rink.
0:06:37 > 0:06:41Your dad wouldn't find anything to moan about here, would he?
0:06:41 > 0:06:45That's it. Hands up who's ever been surfing before.
0:06:45 > 0:06:47Hands up who'd like to have a go.
0:06:47 > 0:06:49Good, because it's got a surfing machine.
0:06:49 > 0:06:53You literally stand on a surfboard and surf. You like that?
0:06:53 > 0:06:56- Really?- Yeah. That's genuine.- Cool. - But one thing, Joe,
0:06:56 > 0:06:58you mentioned that you were seasick.
0:06:58 > 0:07:00How concerned are you about this?
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Well, it's not really on big ships.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04But are you worried about it?
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- If so, speak up now.- No. - Are you sure?- I'm sure.- OK,
0:07:07 > 0:07:09I can now reveal that Break 2
0:07:09 > 0:07:12is a freezing Finnish adventure.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14Yes.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17There would be no chance of your mum going on shopping trips.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19You can go ice climbing,
0:07:19 > 0:07:24riding on snowmobiles and sledding with your own team of huskies.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26And the disco lights? Well, on this break,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29you're in with a chance of seeing the Northern Lights.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31- Amazing.- So, how do you think your parents
0:07:31 > 0:07:34would feel about having a slightly cold holiday?
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- My dad would moan a lot.- Have you ever been anywhere like that?
0:07:37 > 0:07:40- No.- No.- No, never.
0:07:40 > 0:07:42Time to tell you all about Break 3,
0:07:42 > 0:07:45- an Egyptian scuba-diving holiday. - Cool.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47- You like the sound of that?- Yeah.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Good, you'll like the look of this. Take a look.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53You must to get used to plunging your head into the water
0:07:53 > 0:07:56if you pick this one. You'll be staying in a hotel by the Red Sea
0:07:56 > 0:07:59that has loads of water activities,
0:07:59 > 0:08:02and you'll be learning how to scuba dive.
0:08:02 > 0:08:05Your mum and dad couldn't laze around on this break, boys.
0:08:05 > 0:08:06Well what about that?
0:08:06 > 0:08:08- Yes.- That was good.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10It's non-stop, isn't it?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12That's what we like about it.
0:08:12 > 0:08:13Non-stop holiday.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16Well, one of these is going to be their break
0:08:16 > 0:08:18but they've got to decide which one.
0:08:18 > 0:08:20I wonder which one they'll choose.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24Give me your answer...
0:08:27 > 0:08:31- ..now.- Break Number 1,
0:08:31 > 0:08:33- the Caribbean cruise. - You're going on the cruise!
0:08:33 > 0:08:37I thought you were going to go for the frozen Finnish adventure.
0:08:37 > 0:08:40You surprise me. Why the cruise, Joe?
0:08:40 > 0:08:41Because it has the Flowrider
0:08:41 > 0:08:45and it will be really, really funny seen my dad go on that.
0:08:45 > 0:08:49Your mum and dad getting on the surfboard. That is genius!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51Well, I think you've picked a fantastic break.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53There'll be a very special treat for you.
0:08:53 > 0:08:57During the holiday, I'm going to pop up and ask you a little quiz.
0:08:57 > 0:09:01Get the quiz right, and you'll win a one-off extra-special treat.
0:09:01 > 0:09:05Get it wrong, and your parents win the treat.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07- Oh no.- So as well as a holiday,
0:09:07 > 0:09:11there's a little extra something. Good luck and have a brilliant time.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17So the Griffins were squashed in to their caravan on holidays
0:09:17 > 0:09:21are off to set sail on the largest cruise ship
0:09:21 > 0:09:27in the world, whose top speed is a whopping...
0:09:27 > 0:09:30How will mum and dad cope with not being able to laze around?
0:09:30 > 0:09:32I'm seriously thinking about backing out.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34And who will win the final treat?
0:09:34 > 0:09:36We're going to have to guess.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39No, this can't be. We've got to guess.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44The Griffins leave tomorrow and because Mum and Dad
0:09:44 > 0:09:47don't know where they're going, Joe and Jack get packing.
0:09:47 > 0:09:49They always stitch me up, constantly.
0:09:49 > 0:09:53So this is going to be an even bigger stitch-up.
0:09:53 > 0:09:55- These should go, yeah?- Yeah.
0:09:55 > 0:09:57Can't wait to see them like this.
0:09:59 > 0:10:01They'll have a field day in my wardrobe.
0:10:01 > 0:10:02Hilarious.
0:10:02 > 0:10:04My wardrobe is all labelled.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07- Let's swap all these around, look. - I do the packing.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11I get nice white tissue paper and put it between the layers.
0:10:11 > 0:10:15- Bra...- I think that's...- And they're folded like they are in the shop.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Just put this drawer in.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20T-shirts rolled, socks are put in shoes.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22We'll have them.
0:10:22 > 0:10:24Everything's just ready to hang up.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29The boys certainly will not pack to my standard.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32Mum, I think you might be right.
0:10:32 > 0:10:36After a little difficulty getting the cases in the car...
0:10:40 > 0:10:43..the Griffins are off to the airport and Mum and Dad
0:10:43 > 0:10:46still don't know where they're flying to.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49- I think we might be going to Turkey. - It's nerve-racking
0:10:49 > 0:10:52telling Mum and Dad where we're going. BOYS: We're going to Miami.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55- Miami?- Miami?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58Oh, my God. What, America Miami?
0:11:00 > 0:11:02Yes, Mum, America Miami.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05That's only the start of their break and the boys choose to keep
0:11:05 > 0:11:09everything else a big secret until they get there.
0:11:09 > 0:11:13- Mum, Dad.- Yes. - We said we were going to Miami, yeah?
0:11:13 > 0:11:15But we're not going to stay in Miami.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18- Right.- OK, Joe,
0:11:18 > 0:11:22get ready. This is our break!
0:11:23 > 0:11:26A Caribbean cruise.
0:11:31 > 0:11:32Blimey.
0:11:34 > 0:11:38I was expecting them to kind of scream with excitement,
0:11:38 > 0:11:43but they kind of just stood there, just doing facial emotions, like...
0:11:43 > 0:11:49Opened our eyes and there's a big cruise ship there.
0:11:49 > 0:11:52I was imagining the worst sort of thing and this, to me, is luxury.
0:11:52 > 0:11:57I just... I don't... I'm sorry, I'm just lost for words.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01They're really excited, but they don't know
0:12:01 > 0:12:03what's on board and what we've got in store.
0:12:03 > 0:12:09Longer than three football pitches and bigger than 50,000 caravans,
0:12:09 > 0:12:13this cruise ship is an enormous floating hotel.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20- That's really warm. - Definitely going in that.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23Look at the view!
0:12:23 > 0:12:25Who says I'm volunteering for this one?
0:12:25 > 0:12:27You're doing it as well.
0:12:28 > 0:12:31No way are you getting me up there.
0:12:32 > 0:12:34Woah!
0:12:36 > 0:12:39- A bit bigger than the caravan, innit?- Yeah.
0:12:40 > 0:12:42Shops, shops everywhere.
0:12:44 > 0:12:46It's like the Titanic.
0:12:46 > 0:12:48Having found their cabin,
0:12:48 > 0:12:51amongst the 1,800 on board,
0:12:51 > 0:12:54Joe and and Jack let Mum and Dad unpack.
0:12:54 > 0:12:59- I'm not looking forward to this. - Right, the moment of truth.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01What are we going to find in here then?
0:13:01 > 0:13:05They were speechless when they opened their cases. It was funny.
0:13:05 > 0:13:07They're creased. What are all these handbags for?
0:13:07 > 0:13:09We like just chucked it in.
0:13:09 > 0:13:12- What's that?- We had no time to fold.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14It was like an explosion of clothes.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17You know how I like my clothes.
0:13:17 > 0:13:18Look at the state of it.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21They're creased, they need ironing. Mum?
0:13:21 > 0:13:25We like to look smart, you know, and we just felt a bit scruffy.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Look at that...
0:13:28 > 0:13:29It's not creased!
0:13:29 > 0:13:31What is this?
0:13:31 > 0:13:33Dad, can you put your fairy wings on as well please?
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Are you seriously thinking that I've got to go out in this?
0:13:36 > 0:13:38You never know.
0:13:38 > 0:13:41When I pack for our holidays, you fold...
0:13:41 > 0:13:42Yeah, three weeks before.
0:13:42 > 0:13:45And you fold, and you roll.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47You unfold, and you throw.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Out of ten, I would rate the boys four.
0:13:50 > 0:13:54The way they've packed, minus ten out of ten.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58But for what they have packed, I would rate them six out of ten.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03The ship sets sail and Miami fades into the distance.
0:14:03 > 0:14:08Next stop, Puerto Rico in two days' time. Let the cruise began.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14Ahoy there m'hearties! Actually look,
0:14:14 > 0:14:16it's only Jake. I hope you're well.
0:14:16 > 0:14:19Did you know that on pirate ships every pirate
0:14:19 > 0:14:23was given a vote to decide where to go and which ships to attack?
0:14:23 > 0:14:26Well, on your break, Joe and Jack are in charge, so Mum and Dad,
0:14:26 > 0:14:32listen up, because these are your holiday rules. Rule number 1. Mum,
0:14:32 > 0:14:34because you make the boys go shopping,
0:14:34 > 0:14:36you will be allowed in shops
0:14:36 > 0:14:39for a maximum of one minute at a time.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41No...
0:14:41 > 0:14:43Rule number 2, Dad,
0:14:43 > 0:14:45no morning, no groaning and no grumbling.
0:14:45 > 0:14:49If you do any of those, there'll be a punishment. You have been warned.
0:14:49 > 0:14:54And rule number 3, Joe and Jack can be as messy as they like.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56Have a brilliant break and I'll be back soon
0:14:56 > 0:14:58to tell you all about your chance
0:14:58 > 0:15:01to play for one final treat. See you soon.
0:15:01 > 0:15:02ALL: Bye.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05I'll find it really hard, because the boys think
0:15:05 > 0:15:08that when I open my mouth I'm moaning but I'm not.
0:15:08 > 0:15:12I'm just going to be my normal self and it'll be proved
0:15:12 > 0:15:15that I don't moan, moan, moan, moan, moan, moan.
0:15:15 > 0:15:17I'm seriously not happy.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21I come on a beautiful big ship like this with loads of shops,
0:15:21 > 0:15:23and I'm allowed one minute in each shop.
0:15:23 > 0:15:26After an afternoon of splashing around,
0:15:26 > 0:15:29Mum begins to bend the rules.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33See, boys, line.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36'Not officially in the shop. The shop's come to me.'
0:15:36 > 0:15:41So the following day, Joe and Jack decide to up the tempo a bit.
0:15:41 > 0:15:44Up, up, up! Out of bed! Come on! Come on, get up!
0:15:44 > 0:15:47- Mum...- Oh, shut up.
0:15:49 > 0:15:53The surfing simulator was a reason why Joe and Jack picked the break.
0:15:53 > 0:15:56But Mum and Dad are beginning to wish they'd never got out of bed.
0:15:56 > 0:15:59I'm dreading it, to be honest.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- So who's going to be first?- Mum.
0:16:01 > 0:16:04I'd sooner go to the dentist and have root canal treatment.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07You're doing it awesome, man. You're riding it.
0:16:07 > 0:16:11Mum surprises everyone by staying on her feet, something that Dad...
0:16:14 > 0:16:15..Joe...
0:16:17 > 0:16:19..and Jack don't quite achieve.
0:16:21 > 0:16:24Perhaps they'll have more luck with the boogie boards.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27First of all, we want the bottom of the boogie board
0:16:27 > 0:16:29right into your waist. OK?
0:16:29 > 0:16:32We're going to hold the board three-quarters up,
0:16:32 > 0:16:34tuck your elbows in.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37OK, once you guys get going, you can do a whole bunch of tricks.
0:16:37 > 0:16:41You can do the barrel roll, you can get on your knees,
0:16:41 > 0:16:43you could do Supermans, and all sorts of things.
0:16:43 > 0:16:44Ladies first again?
0:16:44 > 0:16:48One, two, three, go, go.
0:16:51 > 0:16:52Awesome.
0:16:52 > 0:16:56It takes a lot to get me in to the water but I really enjoyed it.
0:16:56 > 0:16:58Once I'd been on, I wanted to go again.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Yeah...
0:17:00 > 0:17:02Awesome.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09Yeah!
0:17:09 > 0:17:12The body boarding was really fun and I did quite well.
0:17:12 > 0:17:16People were telling me to do 360s, but I kept falling off at the end.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Well done, Jack.
0:17:20 > 0:17:21Very good, my man.
0:17:21 > 0:17:23Go, go!
0:17:23 > 0:17:25So much better than being in a caravan.
0:17:32 > 0:17:35Something that we definitely would not have done
0:17:35 > 0:17:39if we hadn't have been on this holiday. So it's been a change.
0:17:41 > 0:17:43It's all about trying new things
0:17:43 > 0:17:46as the boys challenge Mum and Dad to a game of crazy golf.
0:17:48 > 0:17:51Don't want to start moaning but I think it's a bit too windy for...
0:17:51 > 0:17:53Stop moaning!
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Come on, Jack.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Come on, you're useless!
0:18:03 > 0:18:06Look, I can't even keep the ball...
0:18:06 > 0:18:10Dad has just moaned about it being too windy and he can't hit the ball.
0:18:10 > 0:18:11I can't keep the ball still.
0:18:11 > 0:18:14I can't keep myself still. This is absolutely stupid.
0:18:14 > 0:18:16You can see, it's blowing a gale.
0:18:16 > 0:18:18- Caught you.- Caught me what?- Moaning.
0:18:18 > 0:18:20- I won't moan no more. OK?- Good.
0:18:20 > 0:18:22But old habits die hard. Before long,
0:18:22 > 0:18:24he's moaning about something else.
0:18:24 > 0:18:27Boo! See, the wind did that.
0:18:27 > 0:18:30- Do you think I'm moaning?- Yeah.
0:18:30 > 0:18:32Be as well to stop. It's too windy to play today.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34- No, we're carrying on, Dad.- I'm off.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37Family rule number 2 says that if Dad moans,
0:18:37 > 0:18:41he'll receive a punishment. And the boys have had enough.
0:18:41 > 0:18:43He's got too moany, so he's walked off.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47Because he's moaned, he's going to have to have a punishment.
0:18:47 > 0:18:50So they take him to the promenade deck. But Dad's not happy
0:18:50 > 0:18:53that it's only him who's getting told off.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56I've got to admit that Mum has been in the shops.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59I just went in for a bit.
0:18:59 > 0:19:01- More than a minute?- Yeah.
0:19:01 > 0:19:03More than a minute.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06But you weren't there, so I didn't think it counted.
0:19:06 > 0:19:09I'm sorry. I didn't think.
0:19:09 > 0:19:12Mum, sorry's not good enough, like you always say.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14"Sorry's not good enough."
0:19:14 > 0:19:15Ha-ha-ha!
0:19:15 > 0:19:18Show-off!
0:19:18 > 0:19:21You just sneaked off, when the boys weren't here, you just went.
0:19:21 > 0:19:25And I've got to work so hard not to moan. It's really hard.
0:19:25 > 0:19:30- I'm ashamed.- It's a natural instinct for me and shops, we're like that.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33Why don't you get it over with and just punish me.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35I'm fed up with waiting - punish me.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37Put them on.
0:19:37 > 0:19:39You what?!
0:19:39 > 0:19:41And your matching wig.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43Are you going to have a little dance?
0:19:43 > 0:19:45Hit the street, go on.
0:19:45 > 0:19:46Go and dance.
0:19:49 > 0:19:51# It doesn't matter what you wear
0:19:51 > 0:19:55# Just as long as you are there So, come on
0:19:55 > 0:19:58# Every guy and every girl
0:19:58 > 0:20:03# Everywhere around the world There'll be dancin'... #
0:20:03 > 0:20:06Of all people, he doesn't really like embarrassing himself.
0:20:06 > 0:20:10I think it was a little bit over the top, to say the least.
0:20:10 > 0:20:14- It's not going to stop him from morning, is it?- No.
0:20:14 > 0:20:16# ..Dancin' in the street. #
0:20:16 > 0:20:20The next day, the ship docks at the island of St Thomas.
0:20:26 > 0:20:29Where the boys have got a special activity planned.
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Joe and Jack lead Mum and Dad off the cruise ship
0:20:32 > 0:20:35and straight on to a smaller boat skippered by Cap'n Jim.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Welcome on board.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43- I hear you two fellas chose this. - Yeah.- You're gonna drive
0:20:43 > 0:20:47your own personal submarine. And getting in it is very, very simple.
0:20:47 > 0:20:50Now this hand sign, coming from a diver to you,
0:20:50 > 0:20:51this hand sign's a question.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54And the question is, "Are you OK?"
0:20:54 > 0:20:55You have two choices.
0:20:55 > 0:20:58You're either OK.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59Or you're not OK.
0:20:59 > 0:21:01While you're going down in the scooter,
0:21:01 > 0:21:03each of us,
0:21:03 > 0:21:08we have to equalise our ear and our sinus airspaces, during descent.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Pinch your nose shut and then try to blow gently
0:21:10 > 0:21:13against pinched nostrils. Or blow your nose.
0:21:13 > 0:21:17But the journey to the dive site is much rougher than expected.
0:21:17 > 0:21:21And, as Joe feared, he's feeling seasick.
0:21:23 > 0:21:25Joe's not feeling very well.
0:21:25 > 0:21:27He's just feeling sick.
0:21:27 > 0:21:29I don't think he'll do it.
0:21:29 > 0:21:32I feel really, really ill.
0:21:32 > 0:21:37And I'm... I'm quite disappointed that I can't do it.
0:21:37 > 0:21:38With Joe bowing out,
0:21:38 > 0:21:41it leaves Mum, Dad and Jack
0:21:41 > 0:21:42to take the plunge.
0:21:46 > 0:21:50Safely in the submarines, the Griffins begin their adventure.
0:21:50 > 0:21:52When you're down there, you see all fish,
0:21:52 > 0:21:55rocks, shipwrecks and everything. It's really nice.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58I did feel a little bit scared when I first went in,
0:21:58 > 0:22:00because the bubble took my breath away a little bit.
0:22:00 > 0:22:04But that soon settled down and then I felt totally at ease.
0:22:04 > 0:22:06It's like being in a goldfish bowl.
0:22:06 > 0:22:11Everything went quiet. It was really relaxing and serene.
0:22:27 > 0:22:30It was quite emotional really, especially when we held hands
0:22:30 > 0:22:32and I could feel my family around me.
0:22:38 > 0:22:42After 20 minutes underwater, it's time to come back to the surface.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44That was just unbelievable.
0:22:44 > 0:22:47- I want to do that again.- Unreal.
0:22:47 > 0:22:51It was really good, but don't you ever accuse me,
0:22:51 > 0:22:53boys, of not doing anything again.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56Mum and Dad may well be joining in all the activities,
0:22:56 > 0:22:58but the rules aren't going very well at all.
0:22:58 > 0:23:02At the next island of St Martin, there are loads of shops
0:23:02 > 0:23:04and Mum is struggling to resist.
0:23:04 > 0:23:06She's just sneaked off into a shop again
0:23:06 > 0:23:09when you were looking the other way, and off she went.
0:23:09 > 0:23:12They better go and find out.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14..37, 38...
0:23:14 > 0:23:161, 2...
0:23:16 > 0:23:19She's been getting away with it all week, basically.
0:23:19 > 0:23:22But I'm not moaning, of course. That's not a moan.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25..58, 59, one minute.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27So back on board, Joe and Jack
0:23:27 > 0:23:29decide to confront the rule-breaking head-on.
0:23:29 > 0:23:33Mum, sit down. The rules haven't been going very well.
0:23:33 > 0:23:37No, they haven't, have they, Mum? Rule number 3
0:23:37 > 0:23:40says the boys can be as messy as they want,
0:23:40 > 0:23:43but Mum just couldn't resist.
0:23:43 > 0:23:46You have took our clothes to the laundry
0:23:46 > 0:23:49and folded them, put them away.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51And we've hardly got any clothes now.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53It's not funny.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55I had to send your clothes to the laundry,
0:23:55 > 0:23:58because the smell was like seeping in to our cabin.
0:23:58 > 0:23:59We couldn't smell anything.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01It was seeping.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05The punishment we have in store, is they'll have boxing training.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09- That's it .- Come on, Dad.
0:24:09 > 0:24:13- Come on, this is your punishment. - Nice and high for me, reach up.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Now, I want this to be a clean fight.
0:24:15 > 0:24:17Remember why you're here.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19You've been arguing, disobeying the rules,
0:24:19 > 0:24:22and me and Joe aren't going to stand for it any more.
0:24:22 > 0:24:24Now touch gloves.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26Let's fight!
0:24:31 > 0:24:32CHEERING
0:24:37 > 0:24:40As the break comes to a close, Joe and Jack take everyone
0:24:40 > 0:24:44to an ice show and they even get Mum up the climbing wall.
0:24:44 > 0:24:46- Go on, Mum.- She's going to get to the top
0:24:46 > 0:24:49and that means I've got to get to the top.
0:24:49 > 0:24:50Well done, Mum.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53CHEERING
0:24:53 > 0:24:55Can I come down now?
0:24:55 > 0:24:57But before long, it's time for Joe and Jack to try to win
0:24:57 > 0:25:02the final treat, to become captains of the world's largest cruise ship
0:25:02 > 0:25:05and sound the ship's horn.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10Hi there, guys,
0:25:10 > 0:25:13time to play for the treat.
0:25:13 > 0:25:16I'm about to ask you three questions. Get two right
0:25:16 > 0:25:21and you win a treat. However, if you don't, your parents win the treat.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23OK guys, here we go. Question number 1.
0:25:23 > 0:25:28What did your mum say was the best thing about the break?
0:25:28 > 0:25:29Did she say...
0:25:37 > 0:25:38I think it would be B.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40She was more excited to see the ship.
0:25:40 > 0:25:42- Are you sure? - Yeah.- OK, we'll go for B, yeah?
0:25:42 > 0:25:47You're saying B, having the ship revealed. Here's what she said.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49The best thing about this break
0:25:49 > 0:25:53has to be when the ship was revealed to us.
0:25:53 > 0:25:56- Yes!- Yes!- Well done, guys.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59Get this next question right and you win the treat.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Here we go. Question two.
0:26:01 > 0:26:06What did your dad say was the scariest moment of the break?
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Did he say...
0:26:16 > 0:26:18I think it would be B...
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Erm...
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- ..being at the top of the climbing wall.- Yeah, B.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25- OK.- Here's what he said.
0:26:25 > 0:26:29The scariest moment was standing on the surfboard.
0:26:29 > 0:26:30Dad...
0:26:30 > 0:26:32Yey!
0:26:32 > 0:26:36Guys, if you get this next question wrong, your parents win the treat.
0:26:36 > 0:26:41However, get it right and the treat will still be yours.
0:26:41 > 0:26:46Question 3, what one word did your mum use to describe the packing?
0:26:46 > 0:26:48Did she say...
0:26:52 > 0:26:55Terrible, disgraceful, terrible,
0:26:55 > 0:26:57disgraceful...? Which one?
0:26:57 > 0:26:59She said both of them so often.
0:26:59 > 0:27:01I need an answer.
0:27:01 > 0:27:04- We'll go for B.- If you want to.
0:27:04 > 0:27:07- You're going with B, terrible?- OK.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Here's what she said.
0:27:09 > 0:27:14If I had to describe the packing in one word, it would be disgraceful.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Oh, no!
0:27:16 > 0:27:21Joe and Jack have lost the treat. It's the end of the Griffins' break.
0:27:21 > 0:27:25Joe and Jack managed to get Mum and Dad involved and all the activities,
0:27:25 > 0:27:29even if the rules didn't always go to plan. But they lost
0:27:29 > 0:27:32the final treat, meaning Mum and Dad get to play at being captain
0:27:32 > 0:27:34and sound the ship's horn.
0:27:34 > 0:27:37HORN BLARES
0:27:38 > 0:27:42We had a fabulous holiday. It's been superb.
0:27:42 > 0:27:46Even though we didn't win the treat, it's been a really good holiday.
0:27:46 > 0:27:48And I really enjoyed it, so that was good.
0:27:48 > 0:27:51Overall, it's been great for us and the kids.
