0:00:21 > 0:00:23Good morning, campers.
0:00:23 > 0:00:27Do your family holidays ever turn into a boring washout
0:00:27 > 0:00:28that leaves you feeling cold?
0:00:28 > 0:00:32If so, it's time to unzip a whole new world.
0:00:32 > 0:00:35This is Gimme A Break the show that lets you take charge.
0:00:35 > 0:00:40On Gimme A Break it's the kids that decide where to go and what to do.
0:00:40 > 0:00:43Parents don't get a look-in
0:00:43 > 0:00:45especially when it comes to the holiday rules.
0:00:45 > 0:00:50Breaking the rules can only lead to one thing, trouble.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54Today I'm in Cheshire and it's time to meet our lucky family.
0:00:54 > 0:00:57Meet the Andersons.
0:00:57 > 0:01:00Making up this family of fun are 12-year-old hockey star, Lucy,
0:01:00 > 0:01:03ten-year-old street dancer, Ellie,
0:01:03 > 0:01:05and nine-year-old karate kid William.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Plus there's hill walker dad
0:01:08 > 0:01:11and magazine queen mum.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16So, why do Lucy, Ellie and William deserve to be given a break?
0:01:16 > 0:01:20To sum our holiday up in three words it would be boring, boring, boring.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22Mum and dad's idea of a perfect holiday
0:01:22 > 0:01:26would just be like lying around and doing nothing all day.
0:01:26 > 0:01:32We want to do activities and mum and dad just say entertain yourselves.
0:01:32 > 0:01:35We do a lot of very exciting things.
0:01:35 > 0:01:38We sit round the pool, we go for a swim in the pool.
0:01:38 > 0:01:43We sit on the beach and occasionally go for a swim in the sea.
0:01:43 > 0:01:46Mum doesn't like getting in the pool.
0:01:46 > 0:01:49If I'm totally honest, I'd actually rather be laying...
0:01:49 > 0:01:54on my sun lounger on the sand rather than actually be in the water.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57- WILLIAM:- She always says, "I'm scared and don't want to do it."
0:01:57 > 0:02:00I certainly don't like getting my hair wet.
0:02:00 > 0:02:01The one thing I always take away
0:02:01 > 0:02:07on holiday with me is my laptop just so I can check up on emails.
0:02:07 > 0:02:08He says it'll take about five minutes
0:02:08 > 0:02:10but it always takes half an hour.
0:02:10 > 0:02:15Mum always makes us eat vegetables with every single meal.
0:02:15 > 0:02:18We do allow them the occasional ice cream,
0:02:18 > 0:02:20if they've been good
0:02:20 > 0:02:24but we always make... and they enjoy the fruit.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27Lucy and Ellie will occasionally have some vegetables.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31I'm really excited about this break because we'll be in control.
0:02:33 > 0:02:37Right, it seems that this lot think that you're too boring on holiday,
0:02:37 > 0:02:41you do too much sunbathing and not enough exciting stuff, am I right?
0:02:41 > 0:02:44- KIDS: Yeah.- Is that what they are like on holiday?- Yeah.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47- Mum and Dad, what have you got to say?- It's just not the case.
0:02:47 > 0:02:52- Are they telling the truth?- No. - Are they boring on holiday?- Yeah.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Mum and Dad it's that time in the show
0:02:54 > 0:02:56that makes parents' hair stand on end.
0:02:56 > 0:02:58It's the Gimme A Break Parents' Promise.
0:02:58 > 0:03:01- So please read that out to us. - MUM AND DAD: "We the parents..."
0:03:05 > 0:03:09"..hand over control of the next family break."
0:03:09 > 0:03:12How does that feel? Does that feel good?
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Yeah.- Are you excited?- Yeah.- Do you feel powerful and strong?- Yeah.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18Mum and Dad, a little bit scared, a little bit vulnerable maybe?
0:03:18 > 0:03:20A little vulnerable. We've got lovely children
0:03:20 > 0:03:22I'm sure they'll look after us.
0:03:22 > 0:03:24Shall we go and talk about our breaks?
0:03:24 > 0:03:26- Yeah!- Let's get out of here, come on.
0:03:26 > 0:03:29What is it you want from a break?
0:03:29 > 0:03:32Quad biking, water sports and stuff like that.
0:03:32 > 0:03:34- A bit of adventure.- Yeah.
0:03:34 > 0:03:36What would you like from your holiday?
0:03:36 > 0:03:41Like just adrenaline fun, non-stop action, water sports.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44Lucy what do you want from your break?
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Just something we haven't done before.
0:03:46 > 0:03:49So, you're all looking for new experiences, fun,
0:03:49 > 0:03:51excitement, adventure.
0:03:51 > 0:03:53I've got enough there to get on with so I'm going to go away
0:03:53 > 0:03:56and I'll come up with two fantastic breaks
0:03:56 > 0:03:58- for you to decide from, yeah?- Yeah.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00Give me five, guys. Catch you later.
0:04:02 > 0:04:05I've lined up two amazing breaks.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08Before they can choose, they need to guess what they're in for
0:04:08 > 0:04:11by solving a bunch of crazy clues.
0:04:11 > 0:04:16It's a windbreaker so it could near the beach.
0:04:16 > 0:04:19A beach, that's not really narrowing down is it?
0:04:19 > 0:04:21- Hey look "sit here".- OK.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23PHRRRTTT!
0:04:23 > 0:04:26A fart holiday?
0:04:26 > 0:04:31It was smelly so we thought maybe smelly cheese from maybe France.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Ooh-la-la, Ellie,
0:04:33 > 0:04:36you've been blown off course with that wind themed clue.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40- Got to stand here.- Can you do any better with this one?
0:04:42 > 0:04:47The board could be something to do with surfing or body boarding.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49There's more to it than that, William. These clues
0:04:49 > 0:04:52are proving to be anything but a breeze.
0:04:52 > 0:04:55- Get it.- Let's catch it!
0:05:03 > 0:05:07I think it might be fishing or snorkelling because of the crab.
0:05:07 > 0:05:09Almost, Lucy,
0:05:09 > 0:05:12it's fishing for crabs, otherwise known as crabbing.
0:05:12 > 0:05:15Time to give it some wellie with break number two.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Throw to the tree and follow your first clue.
0:05:18 > 0:05:20- Three, two, one...- ALL: ..go!
0:05:20 > 0:05:22BAGPIPES PLAY
0:05:22 > 0:05:24- Game.- Snakes and ladders. - And it says "land".
0:05:24 > 0:05:26It could be a puzzle holiday.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Puzzle holiday, that sounds fun.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32Think land and games high up, any idea?
0:05:33 > 0:05:34Farmland?
0:05:34 > 0:05:36Try higher...land
0:05:36 > 0:05:37games.
0:05:37 > 0:05:41BAGPIPES PLAY
0:05:41 > 0:05:42ALL: "There are two clues
0:05:42 > 0:05:48"hidden in this field. Hunt, search and keep your eyes peeled."
0:05:52 > 0:05:55- E...- Gold eagle.
0:05:57 > 0:06:01Seagulls are usually found on the beach.
0:06:01 > 0:06:02It could be like E,
0:06:02 > 0:06:03with the letter,
0:06:03 > 0:06:06and the sea gull and you could take out gull so, eagle.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07Hang on a second,
0:06:07 > 0:06:11isn't that what William just said? I think you've cracked the clue.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13Now it's the final one for this break.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18- It's got...- It says, "Build me."
0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's a miracle.
0:06:26 > 0:06:28White water rafting.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31Well, done Lucy, you've got the right idea.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33Time to find out where the two breaks are.
0:06:36 > 0:06:38I can feel the tension is building.
0:06:38 > 0:06:43- What is break number one?- Near a beach.- Near a beach.
0:06:43 > 0:06:47- There was one clue you didn't quite understand did you?- No.
0:06:47 > 0:06:48There you stick that on.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51Beautiful you look like one of your sisters.
0:06:51 > 0:06:55Fan blowing against your hair because your hair is windswept.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58The final clue was this -
0:06:58 > 0:07:01a surf board, windsurfing. See?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03Let me take that off your head.
0:07:03 > 0:07:07I can tell you that holiday number one is a windy break in Norfolk.
0:07:07 > 0:07:09- Ready to see it?- Yeah.
0:07:09 > 0:07:13On this fun packed breezy break you'll have no time
0:07:13 > 0:07:17for sunbathing or lazing around. You'll learn how to windsurf,
0:07:17 > 0:07:20try your hand at a spot of crabbing,
0:07:20 > 0:07:23you'll rise to the challenge when making your own bread
0:07:23 > 0:07:29and you'll get to chill out and stay in an amazing windmill hotel. Guys,
0:07:29 > 0:07:33- what about break number one?- That looked good.- It looked good?- Yeah.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35- Something you're interested in?- Yes.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38- What do you Mum'll make of wind surfing.- She'll be terrible at it.
0:07:38 > 0:07:41- Terrible. You think she'll be no good?- No.- So,
0:07:41 > 0:07:43break number two what do you think that could be?
0:07:43 > 0:07:48I thought it might be in Scotland because there was like an army coat
0:07:48 > 0:07:50and a Scottish hat and binoculars.
0:07:50 > 0:07:54OK. I can tell you break number two is hills and thrills
0:07:54 > 0:07:57in the Highlands of Scotland.
0:07:57 > 0:08:01- Cool.- Does that sound amazing? Shall we have a little look?- Yeah.
0:08:02 > 0:08:04With this break you'll head into the great outdoors
0:08:04 > 0:08:06for a stunning Scottish adventure.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09You'll get the adrenaline pumping when you have a go
0:08:09 > 0:08:11at white water rafting.
0:08:11 > 0:08:13You'll be going off road
0:08:13 > 0:08:17to spot golden eagles on a 4 x 4 highland safari
0:08:17 > 0:08:20and you'll give boredom the heave-ho when you try some Highland games.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25So, that was break number two, what do you think?
0:08:25 > 0:08:30- Cool.- Did it look good? - Yeah.- Exciting, fun?- Yeah.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32You guys must decide what break you want to go on.
0:08:32 > 0:08:36I've got to go because I've got some really urgent business to attend to.
0:08:36 > 0:08:39- When I come back, tell me what you've chosen.- Yeah.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41Right, see you in a little while.
0:08:44 > 0:08:46I think we should go to Norfolk.
0:08:46 > 0:08:48I know. But staying in a windmill?
0:08:48 > 0:08:49Yeah, don't you want to do that?
0:08:49 > 0:08:52And Swash is round one! He's round two!
0:08:52 > 0:08:55He sees a goal! Yeah!
0:08:55 > 0:08:57Well, what things do you want to do in Scotland?
0:08:57 > 0:08:59The white water rafting.
0:08:59 > 0:09:02He's done it! He's won it for England.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- So, we've made a decision.- Yeah. - Yeah.- OK.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07Yes!
0:09:07 > 0:09:11Well, glad I got that work out of the way.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Have you come to a decision?- Yeah.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16- What is it?- Break number one.
0:09:16 > 0:09:17The windy break to Norfolk.
0:09:17 > 0:09:20What made you pick number one?
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- The windsurfing.- What about you, Will?- The windsurfing.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26- The windsurfing as well. Are you happy?- Yeah.- Ready?
0:09:27 > 0:09:29Booked.
0:09:29 > 0:09:32I'll check in with you during your break to Norfolk
0:09:32 > 0:09:35and tell you how you can win one final treat.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37If you answer incorrectly
0:09:37 > 0:09:40and you mess up, then Mum and Dad are going to get the treat.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44Now, don't tell Mum and Dad about anything this is top secret.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48- What is it?- Top secret.
0:09:48 > 0:09:49So, Lucy, Ellie and William
0:09:49 > 0:09:52are over the moon with the idea of a breezy break in Norfolk
0:09:52 > 0:09:54but what will Mum and Dad
0:09:54 > 0:09:57make of a fun-packed holiday
0:09:57 > 0:09:59with no chance of sunbathing by the pool?
0:09:59 > 0:10:04And who will bag the final souvenir?
0:10:08 > 0:10:10The kids are wearing the trousers on this break
0:10:10 > 0:10:13and everything is up to them including what Mum and Dad wear.
0:10:13 > 0:10:19If the children pack for themselves it would be an absolute disaster.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21This would come in handy.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Massive!
0:10:23 > 0:10:26They have no commonsense whatsoever.
0:10:26 > 0:10:29Urgh. These are horrible.
0:10:29 > 0:10:31This is disgusting.
0:10:31 > 0:10:33I think somewhere lurking in my wardrobe
0:10:33 > 0:10:37I've got a pair of leather trousers that I used to wear.
0:10:37 > 0:10:39These will keep the wind off.
0:10:39 > 0:10:41The worse case scenario for me
0:10:41 > 0:10:44would be if they packed any of my golfing gear.
0:10:44 > 0:10:48- What about Dad's 1980's golf trousers.- Oh, yeah.
0:10:48 > 0:10:52I've a feeling they might just be all thrown into the suitcase
0:10:52 > 0:10:56and I'm going to end up with a big crumpled mess.
0:11:02 > 0:11:03ALL: Yes!
0:11:05 > 0:11:08The kids have their very own Gimme A Break fam cam
0:11:08 > 0:11:11and they're already calling the shots.
0:11:11 > 0:11:15About to wake up Mum and Dad and it's the morning of the break.
0:11:15 > 0:11:18Morning. Morning, Mum.
0:11:18 > 0:11:21Once Mum and Dad are out of bed, time to reveal where they are going.
0:11:21 > 0:11:25- ALL: Special delivery. - What's all this then?
0:11:26 > 0:11:28ALL: Three, two, one.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31Windy...break...
0:11:31 > 0:11:32- Norfolk.- Norfolk!
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Fantastic. I give the kids ten out of ten.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39I know the children know we like to relax when we go away
0:11:39 > 0:11:40so I would hope
0:11:40 > 0:11:44that we are not doing anything that involves any strenuous exercise.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48Good luck with that one, Dad, I think the kids have got other ideas.
0:11:48 > 0:11:51But, there's no time to hang around, it's off to the station.
0:11:51 > 0:11:54The family have a four hour train journey ahead of them
0:11:54 > 0:11:58to get from Cheshire to Norfolk in the east of England.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Miles of sandy beaches and flat countryside
0:12:03 > 0:12:06make Norfolk a top spot for wind-based activities.
0:12:06 > 0:12:10And when the Andersons arrive, the wind is definitely blowing.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13Time to check out their luxury hotel.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- Wow, look at this. - It's a bit nice, isn't it?
0:12:17 > 0:12:20- Mum and Dad seem chuffed with the hotel.- Who's sleeping where?
0:12:20 > 0:12:24But what will they make of the kids packing pranks.
0:12:27 > 0:12:30For goodness' sake! I thought you said you'd packed it neatly.
0:12:30 > 0:12:32- <- Your pink tie.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36Any particular reason why you've brought this.
0:12:36 > 0:12:38You might need it.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39Oh, a dinner party?
0:12:39 > 0:12:42- Oh, come on.- Oh, dear.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45Who has put these in the case? Me.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48These trousers have not been worn for ten years.
0:12:48 > 0:12:50Oh, no.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53How did you find these? Between you and me, guys,
0:12:53 > 0:12:56I think the fashion police just might be after us.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- What have you actually packed for me to wear?- Oh, a pair of shorts.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01And a T-shirt.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04A pair of shorts and a T-shirt
0:13:04 > 0:13:08and my suit jacket and seven ties.
0:13:08 > 0:13:09The mark out of ten
0:13:09 > 0:13:13I would give the children for their packing is a big fat zero.
0:13:13 > 0:13:15I think Dad's reaction was really mean and unfair
0:13:15 > 0:13:17because we did a pretty good job.
0:13:17 > 0:13:19It's amazing, I'm lost for words.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26It's day two in windy Norfolk.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30This is the only thing I have in my suitcase to wear.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32I look ridiculous.
0:13:32 > 0:13:36Mum and Dad dodged the fashion police to get ready for Lucy,
0:13:36 > 0:13:39Ellie and William to lay down their own laws with the holiday rules.
0:13:40 > 0:13:43'Hello, Anderson family.'
0:13:43 > 0:13:44ALL: Hi, Joe.
0:13:44 > 0:13:48'Lucy, Ellie, William I hope you're keeping Mum and Dad in check.'
0:13:48 > 0:13:49Yeah.
0:13:49 > 0:13:52'Mum and Dad, get ready, it's time to deliver your rules.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54'Mum, the guys are fed up with you wimping out
0:13:54 > 0:13:57'of holiday activities, what do you say to that?'
0:13:57 > 0:14:01I don't think I wimp out of holiday activities.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03You don't do anything.
0:14:03 > 0:14:05'Sorry, Mum, that won't wash on this break.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08'Rule number one you're not allowed to say,
0:14:08 > 0:14:10'"I can't do it," or, "I'm scared."'
0:14:10 > 0:14:12THEY CHUCKLE
0:14:12 > 0:14:14- OK.- Oh, dear. - 'Right, Dad, your turn.
0:14:14 > 0:14:17'Lucy, Ellie and William are fed up with you
0:14:17 > 0:14:20'tip tapping on your laptop when you're on holiday.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- 'What's your excuse?'- There's nothing wrong with doing
0:14:23 > 0:14:26a little bit of work while you're away, half an hour or so.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30'No chance, Dad, this break is a gadget free zone.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32'Rule number two is aimed at you.'
0:14:32 > 0:14:35- Come on.- 'You're not allowed to use your laptop on holiday.'
0:14:35 > 0:14:39Who's come up with that rule, it's ridiculous?
0:14:39 > 0:14:42'Finally, three little birds have told me that even on holiday
0:14:42 > 0:14:44'the Andersons have to eat healthily.'
0:14:44 > 0:14:49- Yes.- 'On this holiday those three are in control.
0:14:49 > 0:14:52'So the third rule is you can't tell them what to eat.'
0:14:52 > 0:14:55- I think that could be a bit dangerous.- Oh, gosh.
0:14:55 > 0:14:59- OK.- 'If either of you break these rules there will be consequences.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02'You will have to endure an early morning fitness session
0:15:02 > 0:15:05'run by the kids. You will do sit-ups,
0:15:05 > 0:15:07'star jumps and running on the spot.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10- 'There will be no mercy.' - Who picked that?- I did.
0:15:10 > 0:15:13'OK, I'll check back with you later to tell you
0:15:13 > 0:15:15'how you can win that fantastic treat.
0:15:15 > 0:15:19'In the meantime, kids, you're in charge.'
0:15:19 > 0:15:21ALL: Bye, Joe!
0:15:21 > 0:15:25Now they know the rules, I think they'll be wary, especially Mum.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27I really do not want to be doing
0:15:27 > 0:15:29the boot camp in the morning.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36There's no time for loafing around on this break.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39The family are off to their first activity, making bread
0:15:39 > 0:15:41in a traditional working windmill.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Wow!
0:15:43 > 0:15:46Wow, what an amazing view.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48That's enough milling around, guys,
0:15:48 > 0:15:53it's a time to get your hands dirty and that means a costume change.
0:15:53 > 0:15:55Oh, looking good, William.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59Dad doesn't know the kids have given him the silly hat.
0:15:59 > 0:16:02THEY CHUCKLE
0:16:02 > 0:16:03They've given me a joke hat.
0:16:04 > 0:16:08After a quick demo from windmill owner Steve...
0:16:08 > 0:16:09Little mouse.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13..it's time to separate the wheat from the chaff
0:16:13 > 0:16:15and see who can bake the best bread.
0:16:15 > 0:16:20Now, do you remember what Steve told us? Knead the bread, girls.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Daddy's on a roll but the kids seem to be more interested
0:16:23 > 0:16:24in a flour fight.
0:16:31 > 0:16:34- Got any ideas what you might make? - I'm making my rabbit.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37- -- I'm making mine with massive eyes. - -- Excellent.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40It's not a race remember, it's the best one.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44It's not long before they're knocking their dough into shape.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47- OK, I've finished.- OK.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- What is it? - A heart with some sultanas in it.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52What on earth is that, William?
0:16:52 > 0:16:56It looks a bit like a stingray if you flatten down a bit.
0:16:56 > 0:16:59- -- It's not a lion any more. - -- No, it's not.
0:16:59 > 0:17:01All set for the oven then.
0:17:01 > 0:17:05But who's used their loaf and come top of the class, over to Steve.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- The winner has to be this one.- Yeah.
0:17:09 > 0:17:11Yeah!
0:17:12 > 0:17:17It's time to blow away the cobwebs and head to the next activity.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20But as the kids are at the helm they'll decide how to get there.
0:17:20 > 0:17:23CHILDREN RECITE:
0:17:26 > 0:17:29Will they choose option number one, the Wash Monster,
0:17:29 > 0:17:32a vehicle that can travel on land and sea?
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Or will they make Mum and Dad do the hard work
0:17:34 > 0:17:36on a pedalo. The choice is theirs.
0:17:36 > 0:17:40- Pedalo.- I think we should go on the monster of the deep.
0:17:40 > 0:17:42Come on then, kids,
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- what's your final decision? - We'll go on the boat.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56The Wash Monster was really fun, especially having it to ourselves.
0:17:56 > 0:17:58The sun's out, it's really quite warm.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01I'm looking forward to the rest of the family break.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05Careful what you say, Mum, you don't know what's coming next.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11- Mum and Dad, we're going windsurfing. - Oh...
0:18:11 > 0:18:14I'm a bit concerned. I'm not sure how it'll go but we'll give it a go
0:18:14 > 0:18:16and see what happens.
0:18:16 > 0:18:21I don't want to break one of those rules so, yeah, I'm up for it.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24You don't sound too convinced, Mum.
0:18:24 > 0:18:26First things first. Windsurfing instructor Dave
0:18:26 > 0:18:28wants to test their balance.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31To get on the boards. Just put a hand over the centre line,
0:18:31 > 0:18:35just hop up on your knees and then you can stand up from there.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37All they have to do is stand on the board
0:18:37 > 0:18:41and with the wind unusually light it means the sea is nice and calm.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42This should be a piece of cake.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Where's the centre line.
0:18:52 > 0:18:55My mum's not doing very good, neither is Dad.
0:18:55 > 0:18:57It's really fun but it's difficult.
0:18:57 > 0:18:59I have fallen in a few times.
0:18:59 > 0:19:04So it's a little bit cold and the hair's getting a little bit wet.
0:19:04 > 0:19:07They're clearly struggling to balance, maybe they'll do better
0:19:07 > 0:19:10holding onto something, like a sail for instance.
0:19:10 > 0:19:14Grab the mast with both hands, keep your arms nice and straight. OK?
0:19:14 > 0:19:16Just straighten your front arm out,
0:19:16 > 0:19:18your right arm. That's good.
0:19:18 > 0:19:23The lack of wind means even Mum and Dad get to stand up on the board
0:19:23 > 0:19:28but the kids have decided to make their own entertainment.
0:19:37 > 0:19:40Meanwhile, Dad's caught the windsurfing bug.
0:19:40 > 0:19:44The windsurfing is absolutely fan...tastic.
0:19:44 > 0:19:47Despite the fact that there is actually no wind at all,
0:19:47 > 0:19:51Guy's really enjoying windsurfing. I'm quite surprised actually.
0:19:51 > 0:19:52We'll do it again.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55It's been fantastic, really has been great fun.
0:19:59 > 0:20:04It's day three in Norfolk and all is quiet. Well, almost.
0:20:04 > 0:20:09- Are you ready for the third activity? - I am ready.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13Steady on dad, you need to have breakfast first! And with the kids
0:20:13 > 0:20:15allowed to eat and drink whatever they like,
0:20:15 > 0:20:19all that Mum and Dad can do is fish for information.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23So, can you give us any clues, Ellie, what's happening today?
0:20:23 > 0:20:27Lucy, any clues. William, I know you'll give us a clue.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29They're not saying. I think we'll have to wait,
0:20:29 > 0:20:31- won't we?- I think we are.
0:20:31 > 0:20:35- They don't have to wait long to find out what's going on.- Mum and Dad,
0:20:35 > 0:20:36you might get a bit muddy
0:20:36 > 0:20:39- and a bit dirty because we're going...- ALL: ..crabbing!
0:20:39 > 0:20:40Oh, lovely.
0:20:40 > 0:20:42I'm not so sure about that.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45Mmm, chance for a rule break.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47- Are you scared? - I'm not scared, William.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49Nice dodge, Mum. Now it's time
0:20:49 > 0:20:52to catch up with Rob, a top local crabbing guide.
0:20:52 > 0:20:54Because they'll be fishing near deep water
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- he kits them out with lifejackets. - You can still breathe all right?
0:20:58 > 0:20:59- -- Yeah. - -- Yeah? Cool.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02OK, guys, so crabbing's pretty easy, it's pretty simple.
0:21:02 > 0:21:07All you need is a net, a crab line, a bucket and some bait.
0:21:07 > 0:21:09This bait's already on the line. We've got some raw bacon,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11crabs love raw bacon.
0:21:11 > 0:21:15All you need to do is lower your bait down into the water
0:21:15 > 0:21:18and all you have to do once you've got something,
0:21:18 > 0:21:21is bring it up nice and slow.
0:21:21 > 0:21:24Get a net ready because once it comes out of the water,
0:21:24 > 0:21:29the game's up it's caught. Then all you do is flop him into your bucket.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31And that is basically how you catch crabs.
0:21:31 > 0:21:33It's a competition to see who can catch
0:21:33 > 0:21:36the most crabs so there's no time to lose.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41- I have one.- Oh, well done, Ellie. - Ellie gets off to a flying start.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46And mum's hot on her heels.
0:21:46 > 0:21:51Oh! Look at that one. I'm really, really
0:21:51 > 0:21:52pleased with myself.
0:21:52 > 0:21:55Just caught my first crab and it was really big.
0:21:55 > 0:21:58Dad manages to get out of the starting blocks, but only just.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03I think that counts. That'll do for the first one. One on the board.
0:22:03 > 0:22:08- Got two.- Oh, just showing off. Two in one go(!) You're welcome.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11Crabbing's really fun and I've caught six so far.
0:22:11 > 0:22:14I think there's a few biting, so you'll have to excuse me.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16- -- I caught one. - Well, done William.
0:22:16 > 0:22:18Oh, William's got a great one.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21It feels great to catch my first crab.
0:22:21 > 0:22:23And with William finally on the scoreboard
0:22:23 > 0:22:26it's just down to Lucy to reel one in.
0:22:26 > 0:22:27Got it.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Let's have a look, Luce. Great one.
0:22:29 > 0:22:34It feels good because at least I can go home and say I've got one crab.
0:22:34 > 0:22:37What's this?! A crab's escaped from Ellie's bucket
0:22:37 > 0:22:39and Mum's claiming it as her own.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Shhh.
0:22:41 > 0:22:44That's a bit shellfish, Mum!
0:22:44 > 0:22:47Nets out, lines up, that's it, the time is up,
0:22:47 > 0:22:49the crabbing competition is complete.
0:22:49 > 0:22:53It's time to look at the scores on the board so follow me this way.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56But Mum's cheeky crab catching hasn't gone unnoticed.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59I'm afraid, Mum, you are disqualified
0:22:59 > 0:23:01for your crabbing antics.
0:23:01 > 0:23:05Ellie, you are clearly the winner with your massive...
0:23:05 > 0:23:07CHEERING
0:23:07 > 0:23:10It's time to release the crabs back into the wild.
0:23:12 > 0:23:15I actually think it's a little bit harsh that I was disqualified
0:23:15 > 0:23:18but I guess I have to just hang my head in shame.
0:23:18 > 0:23:21Mum, where do you think you're going?
0:23:21 > 0:23:22Camp site maybe.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25I don't think it'll be the luxury we've had
0:23:25 > 0:23:27- the last few days. - I can see a windmill.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29I can't.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32The other day we made bread
0:23:32 > 0:23:35in a windmill. Well tonight, we're staying in one.
0:23:35 > 0:23:38- Oh, wow.- Fantastic. - We're actually staying in there?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Yeah.- Oh, fantastic!
0:23:40 > 0:23:43- Woah!- Hey, look,
0:23:43 > 0:23:46we're in a...round room.
0:23:46 > 0:23:49- Yes, we are! - We are in a...round room.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51Bagsy this bed.
0:23:51 > 0:23:53The room's really cool
0:23:53 > 0:23:58- and I'm really glad that I got the big bed.- You didn't.- I did.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01Oh, nice to have a bit of relax isn't it?
0:24:01 > 0:24:04- I wonder where the kids are? - Oh, I don't know.
0:24:04 > 0:24:08No time for lying around, Mum and Dad, it's time for the banquet.
0:24:08 > 0:24:11Hello there, here's your Gimme A Break menu.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13Usually the kids have to stick to a healthy diet
0:24:13 > 0:24:17but tonight they have control of the kitchen.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18What should we have?
0:24:18 > 0:24:19Posh burger and chips.
0:24:19 > 0:24:24One side of the menu is naughty and the other side is healthy.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26CHILDREN CHATTER
0:24:26 > 0:24:30What will they pick for Mum and Dad? Naughty? Healthy? Healthy? Naughty?
0:24:30 > 0:24:33So, what have you guys decided that Mum and Dad are going to have?
0:24:33 > 0:24:36Dad's going to have the chicken curry and rice.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39Fantastic. Thank you, children, that's a great choice.
0:24:39 > 0:24:42And Mum's going to have the chicken and vegetable.
0:24:42 > 0:24:44- Great.- Sounds good.- That's nice.
0:24:44 > 0:24:48They sound pleased but will the choices tickle their taste buds.
0:24:48 > 0:24:52- Great choice. Well done.- Was yours from the healthy option, William?
0:24:52 > 0:24:56I don't think it was. The only one with the healthy option here is...
0:24:56 > 0:24:59- Mum.- ..Mum.- It's really good. Would anyone like to try some?
0:24:59 > 0:25:04- -- William, have some, it's healthy. - -- In your dreams.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08But there's no healthy option when it comes to the surprise dessert.
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Oh, look at that!
0:25:09 > 0:25:14- Oh, look at that! - I hope you're hungry.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17How delicious is that?
0:25:17 > 0:25:19Oh, look at these.
0:25:19 > 0:25:20Cool!
0:25:20 > 0:25:22LAUGHTER
0:25:24 > 0:25:29That has got to be the nicest cake we've ever had.
0:25:29 > 0:25:30Mm!
0:25:30 > 0:25:31I'm nearly full.
0:25:31 > 0:25:34You've got the rest of the windmill to eat.
0:25:34 > 0:25:39It's one of the best cakes I've ever had. It's so yummy and delicious.
0:25:39 > 0:25:41It's just like heaven.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48I've never seen a cake like this.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52Not only does it look great, it tastes even better than it looks.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55It is one phenomenal cake.
0:25:55 > 0:25:56POPPING
0:26:03 > 0:26:06The Andersons' windy break in Norfolk is drawing to a close.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10But they have the chance to win a fantastic souvenir,
0:26:10 > 0:26:13their very own personalised Gimme A Break kites.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14'OK, guys,
0:26:14 > 0:26:16'if you get two of the following questions
0:26:16 > 0:26:18'correct you win the kites.
0:26:18 > 0:26:19'But if you get it wrong,
0:26:19 > 0:26:22'Mum and Dad will bag themselves a his and her set.
0:26:22 > 0:26:26- 'Are you ready for the first question?'- ALL: Yeah.
0:26:26 > 0:26:29'Which activity was a surprise hit with Mum, was it:'
0:26:33 > 0:26:35I think bread-making.
0:26:35 > 0:26:37No, windsurfing, because she said,
0:26:37 > 0:26:40"I was really surprised how much I enjoyed that."
0:26:40 > 0:26:43I think windsurfing because she did...
0:26:43 > 0:26:46- Windsurfing.- No.- Windsurfing.
0:26:46 > 0:26:48It was Dad who was surprised.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50'Can I have the answer, please?'
0:26:50 > 0:26:52We think it's A, windsurfing.
0:26:52 > 0:26:55'OK, you said A, windsurfing.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57'Here's what your mum said.'
0:26:57 > 0:27:00'I'm surprised how much I enjoyed the windsurfing activity.'
0:27:00 > 0:27:02ALL: Yeah.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04'Well, done.'
0:27:04 > 0:27:08'If you get the next one right, those kites are all yours.
0:27:08 > 0:27:10- 'Are you ready for question number two?'- Yeah.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13'What annoyed Dad most about this break? Was it:'
0:27:18 > 0:27:21- Kids' packing.- Kids' packing.- Yeah.
0:27:21 > 0:27:23- 'You're going with B, the kids' packing?'- Yeah.
0:27:23 > 0:27:25'Here's what your dad said.'
0:27:25 > 0:27:30The thing that annoyed me most on the break was the kids' packing.
0:27:30 > 0:27:31ALL: Yeah!
0:27:31 > 0:27:36'Congratulations, guys, you have won, the kites are yours.'
0:27:38 > 0:27:42The break in Norfolk was a fantastic experience for the whole family,
0:27:42 > 0:27:43it's been great.
0:27:44 > 0:27:47I think Mum and Dad are quite looking forward to going home
0:27:47 > 0:27:49as they get to be in charge again.
0:27:49 > 0:27:53It's been a fantastic time spending time with the family.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55If I could sum up my break in three words
0:27:55 > 0:27:58it would be fun, exciting and adventurous.
