0:00:19 > 0:00:22Welcome to Gimme A Break, the show where the children
0:00:22 > 0:00:24take control of the family holiday.
0:00:24 > 0:00:27Quite simply the kids are in charge!
0:00:27 > 0:00:30On Gimme A Break, the kids have all the say.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32They decide where they go, what activities they do,
0:00:32 > 0:00:36and most importantly, they're in charge of the holiday rules.
0:00:38 > 0:00:41Today's family who are gonna get a break are...
0:00:41 > 0:00:44the Tait family.
0:00:44 > 0:00:45Builder Dad.
0:00:45 > 0:00:47Hairdresser Mum.
0:00:47 > 0:00:4911 year old Daena
0:00:49 > 0:00:52and nine year old Kealan.
0:00:52 > 0:00:55So why do Daena and Kealan need to be given a break?
0:00:55 > 0:01:00Every time we go on holiday it has to be Mum and Dad who decide what we do.
0:01:00 > 0:01:03- She does everything.- I just decide. - It's all her fault really.
0:01:03 > 0:01:08On holidays you're active and doing actual things.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12Last year in France we got dragged around the shops all the time.
0:01:12 > 0:01:16You can't go to places like France, and not go around the shops.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19She never buys it. She goes into a shop and looks at it and comes out.
0:01:19 > 0:01:21She does do that a lot, doesn't she?
0:01:21 > 0:01:23Helping them with their fashion sense.
0:01:23 > 0:01:29If there's any other boys out there, then please help me!
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Dad will always make us go on long walks.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35No matter what he does he will always make us have a walk.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39I like to get up in the morning and like do a bit of a discovery.
0:01:39 > 0:01:42He wakes up about 3 o'clock in the morning.
0:01:42 > 0:01:44COCK-A-DOODLE-DOO!
0:01:44 > 0:01:47Early in the morning you can find things that you would never
0:01:47 > 0:01:52- normally think, "That's brilliant!" - He feels happy when he's doing that.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54I think those are the most exciting bits of a holiday.
0:01:54 > 0:01:59Dad, it's 6 o'clock in the morning go back to sleep, I'm tired!
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Wanna get up, get out and let's go!
0:02:03 > 0:02:06I don't want to go for a walk!
0:02:06 > 0:02:08Tait Family, I can't believe what I've been hearing.
0:02:08 > 0:02:12- Do you know how to give you two the control of the holiday?- Yes!
0:02:12 > 0:02:14Nice. And the way to do it is to get your parents to read
0:02:14 > 0:02:17the Parents' Promise. Hands on hearts...
0:02:17 > 0:02:20We the parents of Daena and Kealan
0:02:20 > 0:02:23hereby hand over control of the next family holiday.
0:02:23 > 0:02:27- Yes!- They have said the Parents' Promise, the break is yours!
0:02:27 > 0:02:30- Yes!- Fantastic, you can stay out here in the sunshine,
0:02:30 > 0:02:33read that and start to worry where you might end up.
0:02:33 > 0:02:35Us three, let's go and have a chat. Come on!
0:02:36 > 0:02:40Look at these two, they've finally got control of the family holiday,
0:02:40 > 0:02:43they can relax knowing they're gonna have a good break.
0:02:43 > 0:02:47How did that feel to hear your Mum and Dad say the Parents' Promise?
0:02:47 > 0:02:52It was excellent, I can't believe they've actually handed it over.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55Not many kids get to choose their own holidays
0:02:55 > 0:02:57but this is really good.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00What are we gonna replace shops with on this holiday?
0:03:00 > 0:03:03I'd like to go skiing. Never done it before.
0:03:03 > 0:03:08I want to go to Iceland and I want to see Icelandic ponies.
0:03:08 > 0:03:13We've had more hot holidays than cold.
0:03:13 > 0:03:15So, do you want a busy holiday or a relaxed holiday?
0:03:15 > 0:03:17I know your Mum loves to chill out.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19- Busy.- I like a busy holiday.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21I've heard what they like and I've got
0:03:21 > 0:03:24three amazing breaks to choose from.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26But I'm not just gonna let them pick.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29They're gonna have to try and work out what their break choices are
0:03:29 > 0:03:32from a collection of rather odd objects. Good luck!
0:03:32 > 0:03:35So, first location for the clues,
0:03:35 > 0:03:38and what they've got to do is try and spot the big bird.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- There's a blue thing!- It's a shark!
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Yeah, Daena, right there, behind you! Deana, behind you!
0:03:43 > 0:03:44Ha ha ha ha ha!
0:03:44 > 0:03:46- What is that? It's like... - Look! Daena!
0:03:46 > 0:03:49- Ha ha ha!- Ha ha ha!
0:03:51 > 0:03:55What am I? How about a windy island break?
0:03:57 > 0:04:01I thought that maybe wherever it was, that they liked chicken.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04- Chicken!- There's sun cream there.
0:04:04 > 0:04:06Yeah, it is sun cream.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09Sun cream, it must be somewhere where...
0:04:09 > 0:04:11It's definitely somewhere that's hot.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13A bucket and spade.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16OK, that means a beach.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19And then we've got the dolphin slippery thing.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22I thought we would be going to see a dolphin show.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25I think the holiday is wind surfing in the Caribbean.
0:04:25 > 0:04:29Daena, Kealan, you're missing something! What does the bird mean?
0:04:29 > 0:04:31Next up, down to the leisure centre.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Right, let's try and find it.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Cold. No. Cold.
0:04:36 > 0:04:37Cold.
0:04:37 > 0:04:39Ooh, yeah, getting warmer!
0:04:39 > 0:04:42- Kealan, I found it!- Ooh!- Yes.
0:04:42 > 0:04:48Find the hottest place here and you could guess your cold break.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52I thought would be somewhere like the changing rooms,
0:04:52 > 0:04:54because they would be quite hot.
0:04:54 > 0:04:57But then we saw the sauna.
0:04:57 > 0:04:59I can see...fish paste.
0:04:59 > 0:05:01What on earth is that?
0:05:05 > 0:05:07When I saw the fish I thought
0:05:07 > 0:05:11we may have to do something like ice fishing or fishing.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14- Daena, I don't think they want you to eat it!- Iceland?
0:05:14 > 0:05:15Ah! No!
0:05:15 > 0:05:17They do eat fish in Iceland.
0:05:17 > 0:05:19What could the wig be?
0:05:19 > 0:05:22All the men have long hair! Oh, what's up there?
0:05:22 > 0:05:25There was a pole along the back, but I didn't think
0:05:25 > 0:05:28it had anything to do with it. It was a bit like a skiing pole.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29Could it be ice fishing?
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Or maybe skiing? What do you think skiing maybe?
0:05:32 > 0:05:34Skiing?
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Right, off to the stables for break three's clues.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39Hello, gorgeous!
0:05:39 > 0:05:42- What's that?- What does it say?
0:05:42 > 0:05:45It says, Daena and Kealan,
0:05:45 > 0:05:49- how about a break in the sunshine state? Yee haa!- Yee haa!
0:05:49 > 0:05:53- A western?- Yee ha is usually associated with things like cowboys
0:05:53 > 0:05:55and horse riding.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56DOING!
0:05:57 > 0:05:59Crocodile!
0:05:59 > 0:06:01We might be going alligator hunting.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05I think that has something to do with it.
0:06:05 > 0:06:08When I saw the hamburger, I thought it had to be American.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Most western people eat hamburgers.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14SQUEAK! Mmm.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17So Daena and Kealan have had a guess at what three breaks are on offer.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19Time to see if they were right.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25Your poor parents have been outside all day, but we can't
0:06:25 > 0:06:29- possibly have them hearing what we're talking about, can we?- No!
0:06:29 > 0:06:32So we'll leave them in the garden while I reveal to you
0:06:32 > 0:06:35the three breaks. Are you ready to hear them?
0:06:35 > 0:06:37- Definitely!- Yes, definitely.
0:06:37 > 0:06:40OK. Now, you know that outfit you saw, it wasn't a chicken.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42- Do you know what it was?- A canary?
0:06:42 > 0:06:45- Which could mean...?- Canary Islands?
0:06:45 > 0:06:50Break number one is a trip to the Canary Islands.
0:06:50 > 0:06:51- Yes!- Take a look at this.
0:06:51 > 0:06:54This break will take you to Gran Canaria, an island off
0:06:54 > 0:06:57the coast of North Africa, where you'll learn how to windsurf
0:06:57 > 0:07:01before spending time at sea, dolphin watching.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04- You said you wanted to be busy? - Yeah...
0:07:04 > 0:07:07- And you wanted to do exciting stuff? - Yeah...?
0:07:07 > 0:07:11- How about a bit of wind surfing? - Oh!- Oh, yes! Definitely.
0:07:11 > 0:07:18Time to tell you about break number two a Scandinavian skiing adventure.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20- D'you want to have a little look? - Yeah.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23This break is in the snowy mountains
0:07:23 > 0:07:26of Norway, where you'll not only learn how to ski,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29but also learn some cold weather survival techniques,
0:07:29 > 0:07:31including digging your very own snow hole.
0:07:31 > 0:07:35You said you'd never go anywhere cold, you always go to hot places.
0:07:35 > 0:07:37- This is super cold.- Yeah!
0:07:37 > 0:07:41What about learning to ski as well?
0:07:41 > 0:07:43- That would be... - Yeah, we're so lucky.
0:07:43 > 0:07:45- You like the sound of that?- Yes.
0:07:45 > 0:07:47Time for break number three d'you remember
0:07:47 > 0:07:51- the rather embarrassing alligator mask that we had?- Yes!
0:07:51 > 0:07:54We are talking about the US of A right here.
0:07:54 > 0:07:56- Do you want to look at it? - Yeah!
0:07:56 > 0:07:58Break three is in the sunshine state of Florida.
0:07:58 > 0:08:01You'll be transformed into cowboys and girls
0:08:01 > 0:08:05before tracking alligators on an air boat.
0:08:05 > 0:08:07- How do you fancy being a cowboy? - Yeah, definitely.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09- You like the sound of that?- Yes.
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Well, good luck making the decision, I'm glad it's you and not me.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16- There you go, I'll see you in a minute.- So, what one?
0:08:16 > 0:08:19I think that has something for both of us.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21We have always wanted to do skiing.
0:08:21 > 0:08:27How often do you get to go alligator tracking on your own air boat?
0:08:27 > 0:08:31They have their favourites, but couldn't choose between them.
0:08:31 > 0:08:35- Two or three? Which one?- There was only one way to make the decision.
0:08:35 > 0:08:39One, two, three four, I won thumb war.
0:08:39 > 0:08:40All right, we've decided.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43- Have you come to a decision?- Yes.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44- Do you want to tell me?- Yep.- Three.
0:08:44 > 0:08:47You've gone for break number three! Florida!
0:08:47 > 0:08:50- Yeah.- I think you've made a fantastic decision.
0:08:50 > 0:08:53I think you're gonna have a brilliant time.
0:08:53 > 0:08:54I've got one last thing to tell you.
0:08:54 > 0:08:58You're gonna have a great holiday, but when you're on holiday,
0:08:58 > 0:09:04you're gonna have the chance to play for one last very special treat.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06There's gonna be a challenge for you.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Get the challenge right, you win the treat.
0:09:08 > 0:09:11Get the challenge wrong, Mum and Dad win the treat.
0:09:11 > 0:09:14- Oh, no!- So that's another thing for you to look forward to.
0:09:14 > 0:09:18- But have a brilliant time. Well done, I'll see you later on.- Bye!
0:09:20 > 0:09:22So, with three fabulous breaks on offer,
0:09:22 > 0:09:27and after a difficult thumb war, the Florida adventure holiday won.
0:09:27 > 0:09:30- How would Mum react to the activities on offer?- See ya!
0:09:30 > 0:09:32- How would Dad cope with the alligators?- Aah!
0:09:34 > 0:09:37And who will win the final treat?
0:09:40 > 0:09:42Right, Kealan, what are we gonna pack?
0:09:42 > 0:09:45- Mmm. Let's start with Dad.- Yep.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48With their break just one day away, and Mum and Dad still with
0:09:48 > 0:09:52no idea where they're going, it was time for Daena and Kealan to pack.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55- I'm done.- Already? You haven't even packed any shoes!
0:09:55 > 0:09:58If it's cold I'm gonna be sort of like freezing, and if it's hot,
0:09:58 > 0:10:01I'm gonna be wearing all these jumpers and stuff.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04I don't think we should pack Mum's bikini, Kealan.
0:10:04 > 0:10:08I really like it, they should do their own packing for every holiday.
0:10:08 > 0:10:10Kealan, shall we make Mum wear this?
0:10:11 > 0:10:15He doesn't care what he's wearing anyway, so a pair of jeans and
0:10:15 > 0:10:18a T shirt, he'll be all right, it won't matter for him.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21That is the most embarrassing tie ever.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24I'll just have to take my chances, see how it goes!
0:10:24 > 0:10:28It's 03.58 on the morning of the break, and we've given Daena
0:10:28 > 0:10:32and Kealan the fam cam to catch those lovely family moments.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34You can hear Dad snoring.
0:10:34 > 0:10:37- HE RINGS A BELL - Wakey wakey!
0:10:37 > 0:10:40Oh, what time is it?
0:10:40 > 0:10:42It's wake up time, Dad!
0:10:42 > 0:10:45At the airport, there was the simple matter of the destination
0:10:45 > 0:10:50to sort out, Mum and Dad still had no idea where they were going.
0:10:50 > 0:10:53- Right, where do you want to go? - I think it's Dublin.- Athens.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55- Inverness.- No.- Florence?
0:10:55 > 0:10:58That's enough guessing. We're going to Orlando!
0:11:00 > 0:11:03I'm really excited cos it's the first time
0:11:03 > 0:11:05I've ever been to America.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Who is that?
0:11:08 > 0:11:11I'm really, really, really excited.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14It takes eight hours to fly to Florida,
0:11:14 > 0:11:16which is on the east coast of America.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19The State of Florida is nicknamed the Sunshine State
0:11:19 > 0:11:21because of its lovely sunny weather.
0:11:21 > 0:11:22Hooray!
0:11:22 > 0:11:26After a short drive south, to Lake Kissimmee,
0:11:26 > 0:11:28the family arrive at the cowboy ranch.
0:11:28 > 0:11:31It's the River Ranch! Yes!
0:11:41 > 0:11:44No messing about, once inside it was time to unpack.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Come on, come on. Open that part first.
0:11:49 > 0:11:53This one's mine! Loads of undies.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57More knickers!
0:11:57 > 0:12:00I thought they'd pack a little bit more for me. At least
0:12:00 > 0:12:04I've got a pair of jeans and a pair of trousers and loads of T shirts.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07But some things there that I would never pack myself
0:12:07 > 0:12:12- if I was getting ready for a holiday. Oh, swimming costume!- Yeah!
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I picked Mum's worst swimming costume
0:12:14 > 0:12:17but she actually quite likes that one, I'd forgotten about it,
0:12:17 > 0:12:19but she looks a really big idiot in it.
0:12:19 > 0:12:21- Open this one first.- First...
0:12:21 > 0:12:24That's a cool tie.
0:12:24 > 0:12:29I don't think he liked the tie, erm...(I agreed!)
0:12:29 > 0:12:30They want me to wear this tie
0:12:30 > 0:12:34but they haven't packed me a shirt, so that'll be interesting.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36These are working! These work!
0:12:38 > 0:12:42I forgot the shorts, and Kealan, one managed to somehow get
0:12:42 > 0:12:48cream all over his trousers...
0:12:48 > 0:12:51- I reckon seven out of 10. - Seven. It's pretty good.
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- Yes, not too bad.- I reckon I'd only be a five if I packed.
0:12:54 > 0:12:57That's really good. Thank you two!
0:13:00 > 0:13:05Mum and Dad are nicely settled in, so let's lay down the law.
0:13:05 > 0:13:08Howdy, there, partners, Sheriff Humphrey here with
0:13:08 > 0:13:12all your holiday rules. Mum and Dad, brace yourselves, here they come.
0:13:12 > 0:13:14Mum, because you spend all of your time taking
0:13:14 > 0:13:18Daena and Kealan sunbathing on boring beaches, there will be
0:13:18 > 0:13:23no sunbathing, and there will be no boring beaches on this break.
0:13:23 > 0:13:27I'm just dumbfounded. I can't go on holiday and not sunbathe.
0:13:27 > 0:13:30If you noticed why I hadn't packed your bikini.
0:13:30 > 0:13:33Rule number two, Daena and Kealan have had enough of being woken up,
0:13:33 > 0:13:37therefore nobody's allowed to get up before Daena and Kealan,
0:13:37 > 0:13:41particularly not you, Dad, getting up at 6am for early morning walks.
0:13:41 > 0:13:45Oh! That's very cruel!
0:13:45 > 0:13:49And rule number three, because of course Daena and Kealan
0:13:49 > 0:13:52are in charge, they can eat what they want,
0:13:52 > 0:13:56wherever they want, whenever they want, and Mum and Dad, no arguments!
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- Right?- Ooooh!
0:13:59 > 0:14:02I think it's really cruel not being allowed to sunbathe,
0:14:02 > 0:14:05look at the beautiful weather, I can't even sit on the balcony.
0:14:05 > 0:14:10This place is absolutely stunning, so why not get up a bit early and
0:14:10 > 0:14:13- go and look at it?- Well, break the rules, parents, and you'll find out
0:14:13 > 0:14:16what the consequences will be.
0:14:17 > 0:14:22Early next morning, Mum and Dad managed to get their own back.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28- Wakey wakey!- Hold on a minute!
0:14:28 > 0:14:31Are they are breaking the rules? I think so!
0:14:31 > 0:14:35Meanwhile, a shadowy stranger arrives at the ranch.
0:14:51 > 0:14:52Hey, guys!
0:14:52 > 0:14:56- Hi.- Welcome to Florida, and Westgate River Ranch, I'm Cowboy Ray.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59I'm here to take you to get your cowboy duds
0:14:59 > 0:15:00and get clothed up.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03- Are you ready to go?- Yes! - Yes!- Let's do it!
0:15:15 > 0:15:17Now that's what I'm talking about!
0:15:17 > 0:15:21You look like real ranch cowboys and cowgirls!
0:15:21 > 0:15:24First up, every cowboy must learn the ropes.
0:15:24 > 0:15:27Pick up a rope.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Also known as a lariat.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33Spread out so that you don't hit each other.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36And over your head, spin the loop.
0:15:36 > 0:15:41You've got to go fast. Point your hand to your target and release it.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Dad, you do it first.
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Remember, you've got to let the slack go. Good job. Mom...
0:15:49 > 0:15:51Fair! Kealan, try spinning it...
0:15:51 > 0:15:53There you go.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55That's not bad.
0:15:55 > 0:15:58Daena. OK.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01Dad steps up to take on the mechanical bull.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05Hey! Great job!
0:16:06 > 0:16:07Oh.
0:16:07 > 0:16:09You can do it.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Oh!
0:16:11 > 0:16:13Throw it hard.
0:16:13 > 0:16:18- Yes!- Yes!- Yes!- Good job!
0:16:19 > 0:16:22So, with the Tate family graduated to cowboy status,
0:16:22 > 0:16:25it was time to swap the hats for helmets. Sort of!
0:16:26 > 0:16:30Mom, this is Little Man. Just climb on.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Jump! Whoa!
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Well done.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37OK...
0:16:40 > 0:16:42- Good job!- Well done.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48You made it! Jump!
0:16:48 > 0:16:51- All right?- Yep.
0:16:52 > 0:16:53In Western riding,
0:16:53 > 0:16:58you simply pull their head, and point him where I want him to go.
0:16:58 > 0:17:04If I want him to slow down or stop, I'm gonna pull back on both reins,
0:17:04 > 0:17:06if you keep pulling, most of them
0:17:06 > 0:17:11have reverse on 'em, and they will back up. OK, guys, any questions?
0:17:11 > 0:17:13What's this, and what's it used for?
0:17:13 > 0:17:17This is called the saddle horn, it's used where the cowboys, they wrap
0:17:17 > 0:17:21the rope around the horn of that saddle, and that helps the cowboy
0:17:21 > 0:17:25- either move the cattle, or helps him hold it. Are you ready?- Yeah!
0:17:25 > 0:17:30# I've travelled every road in this here land
0:17:30 > 0:17:32# I've been everywhere, man
0:17:32 > 0:17:34# I've been everywhere, man
0:17:34 > 0:17:36# Across the deserts bare, man
0:17:36 > 0:17:38# I breathe the mountain air, man
0:17:38 > 0:17:41# Of travel, I've had my share, man
0:17:41 > 0:17:42# I've been everywhere... #
0:17:42 > 0:17:46What we're basically gonna do is sort of encircle the herd,
0:17:46 > 0:17:50we're gonna be a moving fence, they should move right along with us.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52What do we do to move 'em along, Ray?
0:17:52 > 0:17:57Of course the old cowboys would sing to them. We won't have that today,
0:17:57 > 0:17:59just give them a whistle, a little, "Getup!"
0:17:59 > 0:18:01A little, "Here! Whoo!"
0:18:01 > 0:18:05- What happens if one of them do get past us?- Just let him go past.
0:18:05 > 0:18:10Don't worry about it, they are what we would call herd animals,
0:18:10 > 0:18:14so if one breaks away from the herd, eventually he's gonna come back.
0:18:14 > 0:18:15THEY CALL AND WHISTLE
0:18:25 > 0:18:27Good job, guys! Good job!
0:18:28 > 0:18:31With the sun setting fast, the family made their way to cowboy camp
0:18:31 > 0:18:35and lit a fire. It certainly wasn't burgers on the menu.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37Nobody caught nothin' on the way in, huh?
0:18:37 > 0:18:43- No.- That's OK, I just happen to have gone alligator hunting last week,
0:18:43 > 0:18:45- and I've got some fresh 'gator tail.- Oh yes!
0:18:47 > 0:18:50Yeah, very funny, Cowboy Ray, but people do actually eat
0:18:50 > 0:18:54farmed alligator meat across the southern states of America.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05- I think they're done.- Yeah, they are. I'm gonna try some first.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07What does it smell like? Good?
0:19:13 > 0:19:15- That's quite nice! - It's really tender.
0:19:15 > 0:19:19It's like a cross between chicken and steak.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22I really like being a cowboy.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24I think it's really fun.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27But I'm not as good as Ray yet.
0:19:27 > 0:19:29- Hey, we've got a visitor! - Hello there.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31It's our singing cowboy, Cowboy Red!
0:19:31 > 0:19:34# Let me tell you 'bout the farm All my friends in the barn
0:19:34 > 0:19:37# Barn's nice, Farmer's wife Don't you make me say it twice
0:19:37 > 0:19:39# Sunny day, bailing hay Go to church and learn to pray
0:19:39 > 0:19:44# Corn bread feather bed, buttermilk, scratch my head, brown cow... #
0:19:44 > 0:19:50Mum decided to dance. Erm, and I became anonymous.
0:19:50 > 0:19:52I couldn't help but have a little dance.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- Especially knowing it embarrasses Daena.- Yes, she was just...
0:19:55 > 0:19:57That was probably the best bit, really!
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Let's embarrass the kids!
0:19:59 > 0:20:03- We normally wouldn't have this type of holiday.- Absolutely not.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07- Definitely, no way.- I didn't know holidays like this existed.
0:20:07 > 0:20:09You don't hear about cowboy holidays.
0:20:09 > 0:20:12This holiday's been great so far.
0:20:12 > 0:20:16I think it's gonna get much better.
0:20:16 > 0:20:18The worst bit of today has got to be...
0:20:20 > 0:20:22- It's got to be this.- Ha ha ha ha!
0:20:22 > 0:20:23See ya!
0:20:29 > 0:20:32Jason's taken Daena and Kealan out for a little while,
0:20:32 > 0:20:34so it's just enough time for me to do this.
0:20:34 > 0:20:39Naughty Mum! Changing the rules! But will it be spotted?
0:20:39 > 0:20:42There you go. And me... Yeah!
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Then a big panning shot across all the area.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48There's Mum there.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Ha ha ha! Sunbathing?! Mum!
0:20:52 > 0:20:55I am. No, look at the rules. Look, look at the rules!
0:20:55 > 0:20:57No!
0:20:57 > 0:21:01With the parents breaking the rules, Daena and Kealan
0:21:01 > 0:21:03set up an embarrassing punishment for Mum and Dad.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05- Hello, you two.- Hello.
0:21:05 > 0:21:07- This is Theresa.- Nice to meet you.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11- Hello, Theresa.- Nice to meet you. - How are you doing, all right?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13She's gonna teach you line dancing.
0:21:13 > 0:21:14You're joking!
0:21:14 > 0:21:16I hope you two have a good time, good luck!
0:21:16 > 0:21:21- You've got to do it as well!- You're not doing it? That's not fair!
0:21:23 > 0:21:28Line dancing?! That looks a little bit like the Birdie Dance!
0:21:31 > 0:21:33I feel a bit sorry for them actually.
0:21:33 > 0:21:34I don't.
0:21:34 > 0:21:40You see, not all the rules were being broken, rule number three
0:21:40 > 0:21:45states that Daena and Kealan can eat what they like, when they want.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53And they certainly were.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56Florida has a very famous wild resident, the alligator,
0:21:56 > 0:21:59which roam freely around the ranch.
0:22:03 > 0:22:07Luckily for the Tate family, local alligator handler Tim was on site
0:22:07 > 0:22:11to safely introduce them to these fascinating creatures.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14- How you all doing? - Not too bad.- You stand right there.
0:22:14 > 0:22:15Nothing to be afraid of.
0:22:15 > 0:22:18Oh!
0:22:18 > 0:22:22Oh, come on. You've got to help me, Mom, here's your 'gator. Hold on!
0:22:22 > 0:22:26And kids, I've got some for you guys, come here.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Hold on to him. Grab him.
0:22:28 > 0:22:31I found it the tiniest bit scary.
0:22:31 > 0:22:34- He wants to get off! - Good, now just hold on to him.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37They're OK because their mouths were taped up.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40The tape is so you can handle them safely, doesn't hurt 'em.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43But these are 'gators from Gator Land so you can do this.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45Got to hold them strongly,
0:22:45 > 0:22:49but try to hold them gently, which is quite hard, especially the tail
0:22:49 > 0:22:52cos it's so strong, they're moving like that all the time.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55I've got a special 'gator for you.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Hold on to his tail.
0:22:57 > 0:23:01Now you notice this one doesn't have tape on it, and if you watch...
0:23:01 > 0:23:02Argh!
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Don't pull!
0:23:03 > 0:23:08- Did he bite you? - Yeah, he gave me a little nip there.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11Look at it bite Dad's thumb! That looks painful!
0:23:11 > 0:23:13Let's have a look at the bite.
0:23:15 > 0:23:17No, it's nothing, really.
0:23:17 > 0:23:19I'll get it back.
0:23:19 > 0:23:21That little one done that, you can imagine what one of them...
0:23:21 > 0:23:25Oh yeah. A great way to see 'em here in Florida
0:23:25 > 0:23:28is in either a swamp buggy or an airboat.
0:23:29 > 0:23:30Airboats it is, then.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01We saw loads of alligators. Loads of them.
0:24:01 > 0:24:05The largest alligator is about 10ft long, a male would be that big.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09How can you tell the difference between the male and the female?
0:24:09 > 0:24:12Females very seldom get over 8ft long, and that
0:24:12 > 0:24:15alligator's much, much over 8ft, so it'd definitely be a male.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18You don't want to get a bit too close to them,
0:24:18 > 0:24:20cos they always eye you, they've got big eyes.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25The only way they can get you is either if they jump on,
0:24:25 > 0:24:27or someone throws you off.
0:24:31 > 0:24:33The last day of the break has come,
0:24:33 > 0:24:36and the rules are finally sinking in.
0:24:36 > 0:24:40The kids are allowed their lie in, and even Dad's stayed in bed.
0:24:50 > 0:24:53It's nearly time to fly home, but the fun on this break's
0:24:53 > 0:24:57not over yet. Daena and Kealan have one final treat to try and win.
0:24:57 > 0:25:00This involves an adrenalin fuelled ride
0:25:00 > 0:25:03in a biplane built 77 years ago.
0:25:07 > 0:25:11Daena, Kealan, I'm glad to see that you're having an absolutely
0:25:11 > 0:25:14brilliant holiday. But now the time has come to see how well
0:25:14 > 0:25:18you know your parents. I'm about to ask you three questions.
0:25:18 > 0:25:22Get two of them right and you'll get to go for a ride in that biplane.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24However, get two wrong
0:25:24 > 0:25:28and it's your parents who are gonna take to the skies. Good luck.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30Ah! That's unfair!
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Question one.
0:25:32 > 0:25:37When asked if your Mum now prefers chicken or alligator to eat,
0:25:37 > 0:25:39did she say...?
0:25:44 > 0:25:49- Ready? We think it's alligator.- B. - B, yeah.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51OK, you're saying B, alligator.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Here's what your Mum said.
0:25:53 > 0:25:55It's got to be alligator.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57- Yes!- Yes!
0:25:57 > 0:26:00- We got one right. - At least one right.
0:26:00 > 0:26:01Nice work, guys, well done.
0:26:01 > 0:26:04That means you just need to get one more question right
0:26:04 > 0:26:08and you will win a ride in that plane.
0:26:08 > 0:26:11This is question two.
0:26:11 > 0:26:14When your Mum and Dad were asked who they'd like to book
0:26:14 > 0:26:16the next family holiday, did they say...?
0:26:22 > 0:26:25Oh!
0:26:25 > 0:26:26I think it...
0:26:26 > 0:26:29- Erm... Yes, I think it.- Yeah, OK.
0:26:29 > 0:26:33- We have chosen...- B.- No...yeah, B.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37- OK, guys, so you're saying Daena and Kealan, yeah?- Yes!
0:26:37 > 0:26:40Right, let's see what your Mum and Dad said.
0:26:40 > 0:26:42- It's gonna be...- Yeah, Mum and Dad.
0:26:42 > 0:26:44- Oh!- Oh!
0:26:44 > 0:26:46Guys, I'm so sorry, but that means
0:26:46 > 0:26:50you now need to get the next question right, otherwise
0:26:50 > 0:26:53it's your Mum and Dad who are going for a flight in the biplane.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56Good luck.
0:26:56 > 0:27:00This is your final question, question three.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04When your mum was asked to give the holiday a mark out of 10,
0:27:04 > 0:27:06did she say...?
0:27:10 > 0:27:14- 10 out of 10.- Right.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16We have got...
0:27:16 > 0:27:19- Please!- A.- A, A, A, A, A!
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- Oh!- We've decided, haven't we?
0:27:26 > 0:27:29- 10.- Yes!- Yes!- Yes!
0:27:29 > 0:27:33Well done, guys, the treat is yours!
0:27:33 > 0:27:34Get out! Get out!
0:27:56 > 0:27:59So much that we've done, it's all been so exciting.
0:27:59 > 0:28:02Mum and Dad would never pick this in a million years.
0:28:02 > 0:28:04We'd never have done it before.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06This one's much better. Much better.
