0:00:26 > 0:00:29For them, it's a dream come true.
0:00:29 > 0:00:34it's a nightmare! Mwa-ha-ha!
0:01:00 > 0:01:02football mad Tom, who's nine,
0:01:03 > 0:01:06guinea pigs Stig and Simon.
0:01:08 > 0:01:12deserve to be given a break?
0:01:12 > 0:01:17We mainly stay in the UK for our holidays. We hardly ever go abroad.
0:01:17 > 0:01:20We once went to this attraction
0:01:20 > 0:01:22We even had to dress up as gnomes.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28I don't think the boys enjoyed
0:01:36 > 0:01:39she tries to teach us loads of things, especially on holiday.
0:01:39 > 0:01:43If there's four and the tickets are so much, how much is the total?
0:01:43 > 0:01:44She's like, "What's 9 x 25?"
0:01:44 > 0:01:47I'm like this, "I don't know."
0:01:47 > 0:01:50There's a learning opportunity
0:01:53 > 0:01:57Me and Tom really, really love fast
0:02:03 > 0:02:06because he's really a wuss.
0:02:06 > 0:02:11family. It felt really, really fast.
0:02:22 > 0:02:25And he does it always on holidays!
0:02:25 > 0:02:28I tend to fall asleep quite readily.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34Once we take over the holiday, there will be no disasters.
0:02:37 > 0:02:40Lads, having heard your list
0:02:50 > 0:03:04It's the Gimme A Break Parent Promise. Hands on hearts, please.
0:03:04 > 0:03:13Yes! Now it's time for us to teach you a lesson about holidays.
0:03:22 > 0:03:23What's the best thing about that?
0:03:23 > 0:03:26You get to boss Mum and Dad about.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31You seem very happy about it.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35So, what sort of things would you like from your holiday?
0:03:38 > 0:03:42once-in-a-lifetime opportunities.
0:03:44 > 0:03:46I'll see what I can come up with.
0:03:52 > 0:03:56but before I reveal the holidays, they'll have to do some guesswork.
0:04:01 > 0:04:04I reckon, because that's snow,
0:04:04 > 0:04:10So it might be somewhere cold and snowy. Snow. Snow. Snow.
0:04:12 > 0:04:14you're thinking snow, yeah?
0:04:14 > 0:04:20to guess what you might do.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22Well, I've found some things.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27So that's definitely German.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34What does "Essen sie mich!" mean?
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Tasty, big sausages, maybe?
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Oh, dear. It doesn't get any better.
0:04:48 > 0:04:55I think it might be making sausages
0:04:55 > 0:05:03Let's see if the boys can do
0:05:03 > 0:05:23It's a French hat with a moustache.
0:05:28 > 0:05:44So, skiing in either Italy or France.
0:05:55 > 0:05:59So we might be husky riding.
0:06:02 > 0:06:04North Pole, Greenland, South Pole...
0:06:20 > 0:06:25what number one is already.
0:06:25 > 0:06:29for it, then. What do you reckon?
0:06:35 > 0:06:38It's a snowboarding trip to Germany.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47of Bavaria in Germany, trying out snowboarding and snowtubing.
0:06:50 > 0:06:54Do you like the sound of that, Tom?
0:06:54 > 0:07:00Yeah, it's really fast and not
0:07:00 > 0:07:02Let me show you Break 2, then.
0:07:02 > 0:07:05any notion of where it was?
0:07:07 > 0:07:12You're absolutely right. It is
0:07:12 > 0:07:16There'll be no boring maths classes on the slopes of Mont Blanc.
0:07:18 > 0:07:21After a day on the mountains,
0:07:23 > 0:07:26because I'm not very balanced.
0:07:28 > 0:07:30So that worries you slightly?
0:07:35 > 0:07:41husky riding in Antarctica.
0:07:41 > 0:07:48Break number three is actually
0:08:08 > 0:08:13And seeing the actual polar bears.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17Have you got a front-runner
0:08:17 > 0:08:20Actually, no. They're all too good.
0:08:25 > 0:08:27What you like, maybe what you
0:08:27 > 0:08:30when you've got a decision.
0:08:36 > 0:08:38Would you like to go skiing?
0:08:40 > 0:08:45So, Number 1, maybe. Number 2, no.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59we have chosen is Number...
0:09:01 > 0:09:04..3! 3? Finland. Why Finland?
0:09:04 > 0:09:07Well, have the trip of a lifetime.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14to see how you're getting on
0:09:17 > 0:09:18to win one last amazing treat.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Well, we're not going to do that.
0:09:26 > 0:09:29Enjoy it, have a smashing time! Yes.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34So, the Marshalls are jetting off to Finland for an Arctic adventure.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38But will Mum and Dad freeze up
0:09:38 > 0:09:42And who will win that final treat?
0:09:42 > 0:09:43Come on. Please make it right!
0:09:50 > 0:09:55to pack for everyone, so the boys are busy in Mum and Dad's bedroom.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04Oh, yeah, we'll make Dad wear that!
0:10:06 > 0:10:09We won't be able to find her
0:10:38 > 0:10:40have no idea where they're going.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43traveller is about to reveal all.
0:10:52 > 0:10:56We're going to go to Finland. Wow!
0:10:59 > 0:11:02fantastic. Aren't you clever?
0:11:02 > 0:11:06I really, really didn't think we were going out of the country.
0:11:06 > 0:11:09I think that Mum and Dad will
0:11:09 > 0:11:10because it's so, so different.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13we're going to be doing? No.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31of the Gimme A Break Fam Cam.
0:11:31 > 0:11:34This is Keith asleep on the plane.
0:11:34 > 0:11:36Enjoy it while you can, Dad!
0:11:37 > 0:11:40After a seven-hour journey, the Marshall family have finally arrived
0:11:40 > 0:11:43in Rovaniemi on the Arctic Circle.
0:11:43 > 0:11:47The temperature is -5, so Mum and Dad are keen to find out
0:11:47 > 0:11:51have packed what they need.
0:11:54 > 0:11:55Look at this all scrunched in!
0:12:09 > 0:12:11I can't wear my yellow shorts, can I?
0:12:18 > 0:12:25They have packed me a couple
0:12:25 > 0:12:28It's just the tip of the iceberg. It's all downhill from now on.
0:12:36 > 0:12:52Hyvaa paivaa, Marshall family.
0:12:55 > 0:12:57Rule Number 2 is for you, Dad.
0:12:57 > 0:13:04Jack and Tom are fed up with
0:13:04 > 0:13:07I could quite happily nod off
0:13:07 > 0:13:09You've got to try harder, Dad!
0:13:09 > 0:13:13applies to both Mum and Dad.
0:13:13 > 0:13:18The boys are tired of the slow rides and taking it easy on holiday.
0:13:19 > 0:13:23That's why Rule Number 3 is that the boys will set the speed,
0:13:29 > 0:13:32Well, bad luck because we are.
0:13:39 > 0:13:42I must warn you, though, if these
0:13:42 > 0:13:45there will be consequences,
0:13:46 > 0:13:50I'll pop up later to tell you about your special treat. Bye.
0:13:54 > 0:13:57and it's going to be really hard.
0:13:57 > 0:14:02I think it'll be quite hard. To be honest, I do nod off quite regularly.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10which although it will be fun,
0:14:16 > 0:14:18with some high-speed action.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26today we're taking you down a 150-metre tobogganing run.
0:14:28 > 0:14:30And to keep a check on your time,
0:14:30 > 0:14:33we brang this stop-watch to see who is the fastest and the slowest.
0:14:38 > 0:14:41When I told Mum and Dad that they were going tobogganing,
0:14:43 > 0:14:47It's going to be so fast! They do have really good brakes, yeah?
0:14:54 > 0:14:57is a slight helter-skelter.
0:15:27 > 0:15:35You've got to beat your dad.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40I didn't put the brakes on.
0:15:50 > 0:15:57Go on, Tom. Wow, Tom! Come on, Tom.
0:15:57 > 0:16:01Go on, Tom! Well done, Tom.
0:16:02 > 0:16:06I think I went really fast and I think I got a better time than Dad
0:16:08 > 0:16:12With Mum being left to last,
0:16:15 > 0:16:21The slope looks really really steep and the toboggans look really small.
0:16:40 > 0:16:43She looks like she's ploughing
0:16:48 > 0:16:52My heart is racing so much. I'm just shaking like a leaf.
0:17:26 > 0:17:30In last place is Mum with 45 seconds.
0:17:36 > 0:18:04It may be the end of the day
0:18:15 > 0:18:19you know what you're doing.
0:18:23 > 0:18:25So that's why we didn't pick you.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28If I'm not driving, I don't have
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Cos you're sitting behind Dad.
0:18:36 > 0:18:41remember the boys want speed.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Put the pedal to the metal.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57I don't think he went fast enough.
0:19:10 > 0:19:11to a really nice restaurant.
0:19:11 > 0:19:15Think again, Mum. This wasn't quite
0:19:15 > 0:19:18I thought you'd take me to tonight,
0:19:18 > 0:19:21I don't care. This is fantastic.
0:19:30 > 0:19:33decision, making Dad drive.
0:19:33 > 0:19:36There's no way I'd have gone fast in that. It was scary.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42the family are heading out of town.
0:19:51 > 0:19:55We just filmed you asleep. Did you?
0:20:07 > 0:20:15going to see the real thing.
0:20:15 > 0:20:23Yes, and you're going to feed it. No. No, we're not. That's amazing!
0:20:23 > 0:20:26To show the Marshalls round
0:20:40 > 0:20:42The big one down there, the male,
0:20:46 > 0:20:48The female is half of the weight.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51You want to throw some apples
0:21:11 > 0:21:12That's the size of the male.
0:21:12 > 0:21:17Waaay! Wow, I fed a polar bear
0:21:19 > 0:21:21fed anything more than that.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28a polar bear with my very own eyes.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39that he nodded off earlier,
0:21:39 > 0:21:44Dad, because you fell asleep, this
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Yes. This means that you've got
0:21:52 > 0:21:55walk down there near those people.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07People were just looking at him
0:22:07 > 0:22:15sticking out. It was so funny.
0:22:18 > 0:22:20have always dreamt of doing.
0:22:22 > 0:22:25we wanted to come to Finland.
0:22:25 > 0:22:29I like dogs a lot and this is
0:22:29 > 0:22:55We'd never have chosen something
0:22:55 > 0:22:58I'm in control, it's a bit scary.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Only one small little problem.
0:23:20 > 0:23:25and controlling an animal isn't the same as controlling a machine.
0:23:25 > 0:23:28I don't really want to disappoint
0:23:28 > 0:23:31so I'm going to try and be brave
0:23:33 > 0:23:37and the rope is really tight.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39I'm a little bit frightened,
0:23:39 > 0:23:42this again. Let's go for it.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52It shot off, and the power - they were going, they were going.
0:23:59 > 0:24:04I was quite scared but when we get going, oh wow, I just fly past.
0:24:10 > 0:24:14On a frozen lake, on a husky sledge!
0:24:17 > 0:24:20I'm reborn into a speed demon.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Right, we're going for a left turn.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35Wow, now we're going through
0:24:39 > 0:24:42we've ever done. Is it you?
0:24:42 > 0:24:46Yes. I'm so proud of Mum and Dad for controlling all them husky dogs.
0:25:04 > 0:25:10Top of the list, brilliant.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13It's like a dream come true.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23so there's all to play for.
0:25:23 > 0:25:27But who'll be racing on ice?
0:25:31 > 0:25:35Hi, Jack and Tom. I hope you've been lapping up Lapland. Yes.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Yes, we've had a great time.
0:25:37 > 0:25:39It was brilliant. OK, lads.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43you'll have to answer at least two
0:25:43 > 0:25:46following questions correctly.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49If you don't, Mum and Dad will win.
0:25:49 > 0:25:51They're not going to get it.
0:25:51 > 0:25:54OK, here goes. Question number one.
0:25:54 > 0:25:57How did Mum describe husky sledding?
0:26:02 > 0:26:08I'm halfway in-between amazing and breathtaking. Mum really loved that.
0:26:09 > 0:26:13breathtaking a lot, does she?
0:26:18 > 0:26:20Right, let's find out what Mum said.
0:26:23 > 0:26:29Amazing. Well done, lads. One more question for the driving seat.
0:26:31 > 0:26:34Which of these two activities
0:26:38 > 0:26:40or B, feeding the polar bear.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48with the sausages and riding up
0:27:11 > 0:27:21Losers! Losers! Kiss the L for loser.
0:27:56 > 0:28:00Mum and Dad are really good sports
0:28:00 > 0:28:02I think the boys have changed me.
