0:00:02 > 0:00:03This is Marrying Mum and Dad!
0:00:03 > 0:00:05Where you get to organise your parents' wedding.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10Lean back and hold on tight, OK?
0:00:10 > 0:00:12You're a real superhero!
0:00:12 > 0:00:15That means you're in charge - you can do whatever you want.
0:00:17 > 0:00:20- Are you going to make Mum wear one of those?- Yeah!
0:00:22 > 0:00:25Mum and Dad do know they're getting married.
0:00:25 > 0:00:27But they have no idea where or how!
0:00:27 > 0:00:29I was not expecting that.
0:00:29 > 0:00:31ALL: Ohhh!
0:00:31 > 0:00:32It's revenge time.
0:00:34 > 0:00:35Will the big day be filled with chaos?
0:00:35 > 0:00:37Or confetti?
0:00:37 > 0:00:39Success!
0:00:41 > 0:00:44On today's show we've got two sisters who've just been
0:00:44 > 0:00:47put in control of their parents' big day.
0:00:47 > 0:00:48With the joining of hands,
0:00:48 > 0:00:53I now pronounce you, Charlotte and Belle, officially, 100% in charge!
0:00:55 > 0:00:58And the kids want a 300-year-old wedding.
0:00:59 > 0:01:02But could it prove to be all too much for Mum and Dad?
0:01:04 > 0:01:08Will the wedding end up in the history books?
0:01:08 > 0:01:11Or be quickly forgotten?
0:01:11 > 0:01:12We're about to find out...
0:01:12 > 0:01:15..because we're Marrying Mum and Dad!
0:01:37 > 0:01:39This is Marrying Mum and Dad, the ONLY show
0:01:39 > 0:01:43that puts kids in charge of planning their parents' wedding.
0:01:43 > 0:01:45That's right, you guys are in complete control.
0:01:45 > 0:01:47All the decisions rest in your hands.
0:01:47 > 0:01:50And we're here to help turn their plans into reality.
0:01:50 > 0:01:52Whether mum and dad like it or not!
0:01:52 > 0:01:54Time is already ticking, so we'd better find out
0:01:54 > 0:01:57what today's wedding planners have dreamt up for the big day.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00This time we're in Devon, home to two sisters who have just
0:02:00 > 0:02:04weeks to organise the whole of their mum and dad's wedding.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06My name is Charlotte.
0:02:06 > 0:02:08I'm 14 years old and I like keeping rare chickens.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15My name is Belle. I'm nine years old and I like riding my pony.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18The sisters have already been busy planning
0:02:18 > 0:02:21and they're travelling back in time
0:02:21 > 0:02:24to make their parents' wedding day a truly historic event.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27The theme of our wedding will be Georgian!
0:02:28 > 0:02:31The Georgian times were around 300 years ago
0:02:31 > 0:02:34when Britain was ruled by four kings called George -
0:02:34 > 0:02:36George I, George II, George III...
0:02:36 > 0:02:38OK, we get the idea!
0:02:38 > 0:02:42The Georgians built grand buildings in places like Bath in Somerset.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45It was a time when the super-rich showed off
0:02:45 > 0:02:48by throwing amazing parties where they could wear their latest bling,
0:02:48 > 0:02:53gorge themselves on huge banquets and dance the night away.
0:02:53 > 0:02:57So this wedding has got to be one of the grandest parties ever.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00So, we have our historical Georgian theme.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03Excellent! It was a time of dancing and fabulous fashion.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06It was a time of wigs, make-up and beauty spots.
0:03:06 > 0:03:08Quite! And that was just the men!
0:03:08 > 0:03:10- Rather! Shall we proceed?- Mmm!
0:03:12 > 0:03:14We are elegant Georgian women.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17The girls have been working hard planning all the different elements
0:03:17 > 0:03:19they'll need to put on a wedding -
0:03:19 > 0:03:21transport, outfits,
0:03:21 > 0:03:24some entertainment, a venue and even a cake.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27And just because it's old, no way is it going to be boring.
0:03:27 > 0:03:28This wedding has to be crazy...
0:03:28 > 0:03:31- ..exciting... - ..and memorable.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34These sisters know if they weren't in control,
0:03:34 > 0:03:38dad, Pete, and mum, Fran, wouldn't organise a wedding themselves.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41My mum and dad have been together for 19 years now.
0:03:41 > 0:03:44They've always said they're thinking about getting married
0:03:44 > 0:03:46but we know if we don't get them married
0:03:46 > 0:03:48they'll never get round to it.
0:03:48 > 0:03:50Mum and Dad have no idea what their daughters are planning.
0:03:50 > 0:03:53But, they do know their girls are full of mischief.
0:03:53 > 0:03:58I think those kids are going to surprise us.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00I'm a bit worried, I must say.
0:04:00 > 0:04:04Belle keeps telling us that she's got evil plans
0:04:04 > 0:04:07- and rubbing her hands in glee. - She does.
0:04:07 > 0:04:11Yes, these girls certainly seem capable of FOWL play.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13We can't do a regular wedding.
0:04:13 > 0:04:17We have to put a little bit of evil into it!
0:04:17 > 0:04:19SHE LAUGHS EVILLY
0:04:19 > 0:04:22Excellent! We all love a bit of evil wedding planning!
0:04:22 > 0:04:24SHE LAUGHS EVILLY
0:04:29 > 0:04:33Forget watching TV and playing on games consoles.
0:04:33 > 0:04:35Those Georgians really lived and died by the sword
0:04:35 > 0:04:39and their entertainment was much more dangerous - sword fighting.
0:04:39 > 0:04:43They called it fencing and the girls want it for the wedding day.
0:04:44 > 0:04:47We're hoping that for our entertainment
0:04:47 > 0:04:49we could do some sword fighting.
0:04:49 > 0:04:52Yes, you can have a gentleman's duel.
0:04:52 > 0:04:53I think that'll work well.
0:04:53 > 0:04:55The swords you're going to be using are these two.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57You can see the handle is slightly bent.
0:04:57 > 0:05:01A duel was a way for a Georgian gent to prove his courage
0:05:01 > 0:05:04and defend his honour by challenging another man to a sword fight -
0:05:04 > 0:05:06sometimes to the death.
0:05:06 > 0:05:07That's it.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10The idea is that if someone is coming and attacking you from the side,
0:05:10 > 0:05:14there you go, you defend it. Three, up to the side.
0:05:14 > 0:05:17You wouldn't catch Georgian girls fencing
0:05:17 > 0:05:20but our two sisters are desperate to have a go.
0:05:20 > 0:05:23In Georgian period you would have exhibition matches -
0:05:23 > 0:05:25you would have people not necessarily fighting
0:05:25 > 0:05:26for the sake of killing each other,
0:05:26 > 0:05:30they'd be fighting to go, "Look! Look how impressive I am - en garde!"
0:05:30 > 0:05:33It looks like Belle is scaring instructor, Mark.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35She has evil eyes!
0:05:35 > 0:05:37She certainly does -
0:05:37 > 0:05:40just be grateful she's not planning your wedding day!
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Speaking of which, let's find out more about the couple
0:05:43 > 0:05:45Charlotte and Belle are doing all of this for.
0:05:45 > 0:05:47My mum is absolutely brilliant
0:05:47 > 0:05:50because she is always ready for anything, she's good fun
0:05:50 > 0:05:53and she's just the perfect mum.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56But it sounds like the girls are a little more embarrassed
0:05:56 > 0:05:58when they hang out with dad, Pete.
0:05:58 > 0:06:02Dad tries to dance whenever we're in public
0:06:02 > 0:06:06and he sings strange songs that we've never heard of.
0:06:06 > 0:06:07It's a bit sad.
0:06:07 > 0:06:09You might be laughing now, Dad, but it's the girls
0:06:09 > 0:06:12who are planning to have the last laugh on the wedding day.
0:06:12 > 0:06:14Our dad is always embarrassing us
0:06:14 > 0:06:17so now it's our turn to embarrass him - it's payback!
0:06:17 > 0:06:20And Pete knows that he might be the butt of the joke.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22I think they'll be meaner to me than they would their mother.
0:06:22 > 0:06:25If it was me, I'd definitely do my worst.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Did you hear that, girls?
0:06:28 > 0:06:30Dad said, "Do your worst," and by planning to have him
0:06:30 > 0:06:34fight a duel against Naomi on his wedding, it seems they are!
0:06:34 > 0:06:36So, you think this something you want to use for the wedding?
0:06:36 > 0:06:38- Definitely.- Yes, definitely.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Do you think your mum and dad will enjoy this?
0:06:40 > 0:06:43They better! Get rid of the sword otherwise!
0:06:46 > 0:06:48The girls may have sorted
0:06:48 > 0:06:52a gentleman's duel for Dad as part of the entertainment
0:06:52 > 0:06:54but they're not finished yet.
0:06:54 > 0:06:57They want to party like its 1799!
0:06:57 > 0:07:01So we've brought the girls to see some expert dancers in action.
0:07:03 > 0:07:05APPLAUSE
0:07:08 > 0:07:11Time for us to get our Georgian groove on.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14TEACHER: Round the lady or the man...
0:07:14 > 0:07:18Elegant dances and balls were a big part of life for posh Georgians.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22It was a chance to socialise and meet a future husband or wife.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26And as the girls dance with grace and elegance,
0:07:26 > 0:07:30Ed dances with the grace of an elephant!
0:07:30 > 0:07:33- So, for the wedding - what do we think?- It's good.
0:07:33 > 0:07:36- Do we think one like that would work well?- Yes.
0:07:36 > 0:07:39Let's hope there's no embarrassing dad dancing on the big day.
0:07:39 > 0:07:42Duelling and dancing sorted.
0:07:42 > 0:07:46But there's one more thing on the entertainment menu - food!
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Georgian party food was nothing like ours, so food expert Annie
0:07:49 > 0:07:52is about to show us what Georgians filled their faces with.
0:07:52 > 0:07:54Prepare to be revolted.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55- Do you eat fish?- Yes.- Yes.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58How about a cod's head and shoulders?
0:07:58 > 0:08:00That isn't...
0:08:00 > 0:08:02NAOMI: Yummy! Mmm!
0:08:02 > 0:08:04Yeah, we have that all the time at home(!)
0:08:04 > 0:08:06There's quite a lot of good stuff on there.
0:08:06 > 0:08:09So you've got cheek on here, and you've got the tongue as well.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11And there's the brain as well, and eyes if you want to,
0:08:11 > 0:08:14and even all that stuff round here, you can pull off,
0:08:14 > 0:08:15and it's all sort of fishy goo.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18NAOMI: Fish brains? On the wedding day? Yuck!
0:08:18 > 0:08:21So do you think we should serve up fish tongue, eyes,
0:08:21 > 0:08:23brain, cheeks at the wedding?
0:08:23 > 0:08:25Why not?!
0:08:25 > 0:08:27Because it sounds vile?
0:08:27 > 0:08:28Anything else on the menu?
0:08:28 > 0:08:30ANNIE: This one's a pheasant pie.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32You can put anything you want to in the pie
0:08:32 > 0:08:35and then you decorate it with the head and wings and a tail.
0:08:35 > 0:08:37You might want to think about the idea of
0:08:37 > 0:08:39eating every part of the animal.
0:08:39 > 0:08:42NAOMI: I'd rather not! But Belle's clearly an appetite for mischief.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45Is there something really disgusting we can give Dad?
0:08:45 > 0:08:49- Ragout of pigs ears? - Yes, that sounds...- ..interesting.
0:08:49 > 0:08:53- What a ragout? - It's basically a really rich stew.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55NAOMI: Yuck, sounds disgusting.
0:08:55 > 0:08:57ANNIE: With the ears, the secret is to cook them
0:08:57 > 0:09:01for a very long time very slowly, so they become very gelatinous.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03They can be vile. It's all in the cookery.
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Surely the girls aren't going to serve this awful food up
0:09:06 > 0:09:08to Dad on his wedding day?
0:09:08 > 0:09:11That sounds perfect. What do you think?
0:09:11 > 0:09:13- Perfect?!- Dad is going to love that.
0:09:13 > 0:09:16With genuine Georgian grub for all the guests,
0:09:16 > 0:09:20and something extra horrible for Dad, that's food sorted.
0:09:20 > 0:09:21You're so cheeky.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25Let's hope the chef doesn't make a complete pig's ear of it!
0:09:25 > 0:09:27And with a duel for Dad and dancing for the guests,
0:09:27 > 0:09:30that's entertainment well and truly booked.
0:09:32 > 0:09:34Charlotte and Belle want to hold the wedding
0:09:34 > 0:09:35in a genuine Georgian mansion
0:09:35 > 0:09:37so they're calling around to find one that might be
0:09:37 > 0:09:40available for a wedding in just three weeks' time.
0:09:40 > 0:09:44We were wondering if we could pop in for a visit tomorrow morning?
0:09:44 > 0:09:48PHONE: 'I'd love to see you tomorrow morning.'
0:09:48 > 0:09:51The sisters are off to a great start.
0:09:51 > 0:09:56The mansion's free, so the following morning we had out to check it out.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58- It's huge!- Whoa!
0:09:58 > 0:10:02The girls are blown away by the size and scale of the building,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05but will it suit their motorbike loving mum and dad?
0:10:05 > 0:10:06It's too posh for them!
0:10:06 > 0:10:08It's too posh for them?
0:10:08 > 0:10:09'It certainly is posh.
0:10:09 > 0:10:13'Castle Hill was built 300 years ago, when George II was king.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17'On hand to give them a guided tour is Claire.'
0:10:18 > 0:10:21Well, our house is quite similar to this really!
0:10:21 > 0:10:22Yeah, mine as well! Mine as well!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25We could do some Georgian waving.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27Yes, like the Queen does.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Right, girls, this is the Red Room.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33The grand margin has a genuine Georgian dining room
0:10:33 > 0:10:36that's seen many a fine banquet over the centuries.
0:10:36 > 0:10:39We could definitely have some sort of big feast in here, because we
0:10:39 > 0:10:45know that the Georgians ate a lot of strange and quite crazy foods.
0:10:46 > 0:10:47So far, so good.
0:10:47 > 0:10:50The girls had been hoping to have the wedding outdoors
0:10:50 > 0:10:53and it looks like this place has got it all.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55That is Satyr's Temple
0:10:55 > 0:10:58and that's where you can have a wedding ceremony.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03'And after a closer inspection of the temple...'
0:11:03 > 0:11:05It's not bad as garden sheds go, is it?
0:11:05 > 0:11:08'..it looks like the girls have made their minds up.'
0:11:08 > 0:11:09They've always loved outside
0:11:09 > 0:11:15and it's really nice to have all the nature and stuff.
0:11:15 > 0:11:17- I think we'll take it.- Great.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20- Let's hope the weather behaves itself, eh?- Yes.
0:11:20 > 0:11:24That's venue sorted. Fingers crossed it's not raining on the big day.
0:11:25 > 0:11:28Charlotte and Belle are halfway through their plans
0:11:28 > 0:11:31for Mum and Dad's glorious Georgian wedding.
0:11:31 > 0:11:33We are elegant Georgian women.
0:11:33 > 0:11:36So far, they've organised some OFFAL Georgian grub for everyone.
0:11:36 > 0:11:38Is there something really disgusting we can give Dad?
0:11:38 > 0:11:41- Ragout of pig's ears? - That sounds perfect.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43The guests will dance a Georgian jig.
0:11:43 > 0:11:44That's good.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46And Dad will fight a Georgian duel.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48She has evil eyes!
0:11:48 > 0:11:51Of course, Mum and Dad are still completely clueless.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53I know they're going to want to scare us a bit
0:11:53 > 0:11:55but we're not easily scared.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57Let's see how brave you're both feeling
0:11:57 > 0:11:59when you're served up pig's ear stew.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06High fashion was very important to the vain Georgians, so we've brought
0:12:06 > 0:12:10our fashionista sisters to pick out some gorgeous Georgian getup.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12First up, a big dress for Mum.
0:12:15 > 0:12:19- So, you're looking for something that looks like that.- Yeah.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22And Georgian followers of fashion knew what to look for too,
0:12:22 > 0:12:25thanks to the newly invented fashion magazine.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28- Something like that?- It's pretty, yeah.- Stick it on the rail.
0:12:28 > 0:12:30- This is a no. - Charlotte, I found this.
0:12:30 > 0:12:34That's pretty. It looks kind of seasidey.
0:12:34 > 0:12:37This costume house has given the girls
0:12:37 > 0:12:38some great ideas for Mum's dress.
0:12:38 > 0:12:43So, as Ed gets swallowed up by the wardrobe monster...
0:12:43 > 0:12:45The girls switch their focus to Dad
0:12:45 > 0:12:49and the scheming sisters have something special up their sleeves.
0:12:49 > 0:12:54- Going to have almost like tights. - Pantaloons. The big, puffy shorts.
0:12:54 > 0:12:58- Shorts.- Yeah? What coloured tights?- Pink.- Pink.
0:13:00 > 0:13:02Oh, I'm sure Pete will look pretty in pink.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06As well as tights, every Georgian gent needed a fancy jacket.
0:13:06 > 0:13:09- It's got sparkle. - That has got a lot of bling.
0:13:09 > 0:13:10And it's got the pantaloons.
0:13:10 > 0:13:13Pantaloons!
0:13:13 > 0:13:16- Oh, that is it. That is it. - A little tassel!
0:13:16 > 0:13:19With hundreds of jackets to choose from and time ticking,
0:13:19 > 0:13:22the girls need to make a decision quickly.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26- There's only one way to settle this, isn't there?- What's that?- A catwalk.
0:13:29 > 0:13:30It's beautiful!
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Catwalk over, it's make your mind up time for the girls.
0:13:40 > 0:13:42- I think we're going to have to go for the blue one.- It was the model.
0:13:42 > 0:13:44It was the model that sold it.
0:13:45 > 0:13:48And no Georgian man would be seen in public without his
0:13:48 > 0:13:51wig and make-up on. The paler, the better.
0:13:51 > 0:13:54The girls want Dad wearing make up and a wig,
0:13:54 > 0:13:57because that's what they did in Georgian times.
0:13:57 > 0:13:59Which means today, I'm the guinea pig.
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- Brilliant.- Amazing.
0:14:06 > 0:14:09Good afternoon, ladies. It is I, Beau Petrie.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11- Would anyone care to dance with me? - No.
0:14:11 > 0:14:13- No, thanks. Fop along.- Oh...
0:14:16 > 0:14:19And as Ed horses around with his dance partner,
0:14:19 > 0:14:21the girls are out of time.
0:14:21 > 0:14:23- Well, I think we've made great progress, don't you?- Yeah.
0:14:23 > 0:14:28Now we've just cut a try and find Ed. Where is he? Ed!
0:14:28 > 0:14:30I'll be one moment.
0:14:30 > 0:14:34With 300-year-old make-up and costume agreed, that's outfit sorted.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39With no cars, trains or buses,
0:14:39 > 0:14:43getting about in the Georgian era wasn't as easy as it is today.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45So, just how are the girls planning to get Mum and Dad
0:14:45 > 0:14:47to the venue on the big day?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50OK, so here we are surrounded by Georgian Bath
0:14:50 > 0:14:54and we need to talk about transport. Tell me, what are you thinking?
0:14:54 > 0:14:59Something grand, like a horse and carriage.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Horse and carriages were the sports cars of the Georgian era.
0:15:02 > 0:15:04Only the rich could afford them
0:15:04 > 0:15:06and they were the fastest way to get around.
0:15:06 > 0:15:11I'm not sure about Dad, but our mum absolutely loves horses.
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- She's obsessed with horses.- So it would go down a treat with her?- Yes.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18I'm sure we can sort something like that out. Taxi!
0:15:18 > 0:15:22And as if by magic, Ed has managed to hire a horse and carriage.
0:15:22 > 0:15:25Well, I do my best.
0:15:25 > 0:15:29- Would that be the sort of thing?- Yes.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33The girls can't resist the chance to take the carriage for a test ride.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Pop in, girls. It's very grand, this one.
0:15:37 > 0:15:40Riding on the carriage makes one feel royally good.
0:15:42 > 0:15:45I'm just going to do my royal wave at the back.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Hello, peasants! Hello!
0:15:49 > 0:15:52Who can do the best posh Georgian laugh?
0:15:52 > 0:15:54THEY ALL LAUGH SNOOTILY
0:15:55 > 0:15:58The fact that Dad doesn't like courses doesn't seem to be
0:15:58 > 0:16:00bothering the girls too much.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03Now you're in it, do you think Dad might like it that more?
0:16:03 > 0:16:06- BOTH:- Yes. - He'll like the sitting down bit.
0:16:06 > 0:16:09Am I right in thinking that transport is well as truly sorted?
0:16:09 > 0:16:11- Definitely.- Yes. - This is perfect.
0:16:11 > 0:16:13THEY LAUGH SNOOTILY
0:16:13 > 0:16:15Oh, dahhling!
0:16:15 > 0:16:19Well, Mum should be happy at least. Transport sorted.
0:16:21 > 0:16:25The sisters have already come up with a HAIR-brained design for the cake
0:16:25 > 0:16:28and they're hoping Kate, a cake maker,
0:16:28 > 0:16:30can turn their idea into a reality.
0:16:30 > 0:16:35- We would like a big wig shaped cake. - Right, wow.
0:16:35 > 0:16:37This is our favourite design so far.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39That's cool. I like that one, yeah.
0:16:39 > 0:16:43We think we want this kind of shape and maybe that sort of patterning
0:16:43 > 0:16:46with some swirls to show the ringlets of the hair.
0:16:46 > 0:16:50The girls want the cake to look like a wig without tasting like one.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52They're using piped buttercream to create the look.
0:16:52 > 0:16:55Big circle. That's it.
0:16:55 > 0:16:57It's not as easy as it looks, is it?
0:17:00 > 0:17:05But after a bit of practice, the wig cake is taking shape.
0:17:05 > 0:17:09- This works really well. - It's a good effect, isn't it?
0:17:09 > 0:17:13- Time for some finishing touches. - That's it, you're doing well.
0:17:13 > 0:17:16The girls make sugar paste flowers and brooches to decorate the wig.
0:17:16 > 0:17:17Nice!
0:17:17 > 0:17:20And with a feather as a final flourish,
0:17:20 > 0:17:22this practice cake is complete.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25- What everyone's going to be wearing next season.- Definitely.
0:17:25 > 0:17:28- Cake sorted?- Yes.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30High-five!
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Ow! UGH!
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Cake sorted.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37With that last piece of our jigsaw falling into place,
0:17:37 > 0:17:39Charlotte and Belle are almost ready
0:17:39 > 0:17:42for Mum and Dad's gloriously Georgian big day.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44From daring duels...
0:17:44 > 0:17:46..to gruesome grub...
0:17:46 > 0:17:48Dad is going to love that!
0:17:48 > 0:17:50..the girls have worked hard
0:17:50 > 0:17:53to travel back in time to make history with Mum and Dad's wedding.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55But the day before the wedding,
0:17:55 > 0:17:57they're keeping a watchful eye on the weather.
0:17:57 > 0:17:59I really hope there's no rain.
0:17:59 > 0:18:00Heavy rain is forecast,
0:18:00 > 0:18:03so they call the mansion they've booked for the wedding to check
0:18:03 > 0:18:06if the ceremony can still take place in the outdoor temple.
0:18:06 > 0:18:09- PHONE:- 'It has been raining, which is not good news.
0:18:09 > 0:18:15'I think what we're going to have to do is see what happens tomorrow.'
0:18:15 > 0:18:17All they can do is cross their fingers and hope.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Meanwhile, Mum and Dad still have no idea
0:18:19 > 0:18:21what's in store for their big day.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24I feel like a four-year-old on Christmas morning.
0:18:24 > 0:18:28We've got so many surprises coming, it's just lovely.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Oh, yes, you've got surprises coming!
0:18:30 > 0:18:33Not sure you'll think they're all lovely, though...
0:18:37 > 0:18:39The wedding day has finally arrived.
0:18:41 > 0:18:42Good morning!
0:18:42 > 0:18:45At the family's hotel, nerves have kicked in
0:18:45 > 0:18:48and the bride and groom aren't feeling so laid-back any more.
0:18:48 > 0:18:49How are your nerves?
0:18:49 > 0:18:51Do you know, I thought I'd be more relaxed
0:18:51 > 0:18:55- but I'm feeling a little bit more nervous now.- Are you?- Yeah, yeah.
0:18:55 > 0:18:58To make things worse, it's been raining.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00With only hours before the wedding begins,
0:19:00 > 0:19:03the girls have been forced to move the ceremony indoors.
0:19:03 > 0:19:05- Well, this is still pretty good, isn't it?- Yes.
0:19:05 > 0:19:08- This is very Georgian. - Exactly, yes. It's still Georgian.
0:19:08 > 0:19:09What would you like to do with it?
0:19:09 > 0:19:12For my mum and dad to get married in it.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17As Ed helps the girls with some desperate decorations,
0:19:17 > 0:19:18back at the hotel,
0:19:18 > 0:19:22our Georgian groom-to-be is getting his first surprise of the day...
0:19:22 > 0:19:24face powder!
0:19:24 > 0:19:25What are you doing to me?
0:19:25 > 0:19:29And his wife-to-be is also shocked by the amount of make-up going on.
0:19:29 > 0:19:31I can't believe how much make-up goes on, though.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33One thing after another!
0:19:33 > 0:19:36That's right, Fran.
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Those Georgians loved their make up.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Spare a thought for your soon-to-be hubby.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43It's time to realise how truly evil my children are.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Oh, Pete, we could have told you that ages ago!
0:19:46 > 0:19:49I get the feeling I'm not going to look very macho at the end of this.
0:19:49 > 0:19:50You said it, Pete.
0:19:50 > 0:19:53After a quick transformation into Georgian aristocracy,
0:19:53 > 0:19:56the girls are keen to get this historic day going.
0:19:56 > 0:19:59After they've made me and Ed dress like not so pleasant peasants...
0:19:59 > 0:20:00Thanks, girls!
0:20:00 > 0:20:03- You look fantastic! BOTH:- Thank you.
0:20:03 > 0:20:05- How do you feel?- I feel Georgian.
0:20:05 > 0:20:08You look better than me, that's for sure.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10- Do you like my teeth? - You look lovely.
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Don't worry, they look amazing.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17- Shall get Mum and Dad in?- Yeah. - Right, you get into position.
0:20:17 > 0:20:21After weeks of hard work and secretive planning,
0:20:21 > 0:20:23it's time to find out whether Mum and Dad are ready to step back in time
0:20:23 > 0:20:28and enter the history books with their gloriously Georgian wedding.
0:20:28 > 0:20:32- Mum and Dad, how are you feeling? - Stupid.
0:20:32 > 0:20:34I've got butterflies in my tummy.
0:20:34 > 0:20:37- Would you like to find out what you're wearing?- Yeah.
0:20:37 > 0:20:39On the count of three you're going to open your eyes.
0:20:39 > 0:20:40- Are you ready?- OK.
0:20:40 > 0:20:44Three, two, one, open your eyes.
0:20:44 > 0:20:48Oh! Oh, my God!
0:20:48 > 0:20:50HE LAUGHS
0:20:53 > 0:20:55I like your hair. Oooh!
0:20:55 > 0:20:59- CHARLOTTE:- Dad has that wig at home, though, so he's used to it.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02Oh, that shade does suit you!
0:21:02 > 0:21:05Time to discover why they're wearing so much make up.
0:21:05 > 0:21:06Would you like to tell them?
0:21:06 > 0:21:09You're travelling back 300 years into the Georgian era.
0:21:09 > 0:21:10Oh, good.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Oh, you're so clever!
0:21:16 > 0:21:18The girls head off to meet Ed
0:21:18 > 0:21:20and it's time for Mum and Dad's next surprise -
0:21:20 > 0:21:22their transport to the wedding.
0:21:26 > 0:21:28Mustn't cry, mustn't cry, mustn't cry.
0:21:28 > 0:21:30Mind the flowers!
0:21:30 > 0:21:33- Oi, that's the wedding bouquet! - Oh, it's lovely in here.
0:21:34 > 0:21:38All right, then, my lady, sir, see you at the wedding.
0:21:38 > 0:21:42Have a nice trip, I'll clear up after the horses, don't worry.
0:21:42 > 0:21:44Just make sure you do(!)
0:21:44 > 0:21:47Oh, looks like Mum's already in character!
0:21:47 > 0:21:50Don't worry about me, I'll be all right in the rain.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54With the bride and groom on their way,
0:21:54 > 0:21:56at the venue, Ed's getting the finishing touches
0:21:56 > 0:21:58to his smelly peasant look.
0:21:58 > 0:22:01These Georgians had terrible teeth, because they ate sugar
0:22:01 > 0:22:04but they didn't brush their teeth, so there's a valuable lesson there.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07If you eat sugar, brush your teeth, or you end up looking like this.
0:22:09 > 0:22:11As the wedding guest wait to greet them,
0:22:11 > 0:22:14Fran and Pete approach the Georgian mansion.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16GUESTS CHEER
0:22:20 > 0:22:26Greetings, my lady! Greetings! And my lord, greetings, my lord.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29I expect you're very keen to get married,
0:22:29 > 0:22:33- but there's a few amusements before the ceremony begins.- Oh, good.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36What have these girls cooked up for us?
0:22:36 > 0:22:38A pig's ear, if you must know -
0:22:38 > 0:22:41one of the many ways the girls are planning to embarrass dad, Pete.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43We can't do a regular wedding.
0:22:43 > 0:22:46We have to put a little bit of evil into it.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48SHE LAUGHS EVILLY
0:22:48 > 0:22:52First up is the duel, to prove he's worthy of his bride.
0:22:52 > 0:22:55May the duel commence!
0:22:55 > 0:22:58You may think I'm just some old common peasant woman
0:22:58 > 0:23:02but I am in fact Scarlet Pimper-Naomi!
0:23:02 > 0:23:03En garde, sir!
0:23:06 > 0:23:08CROWD GASP
0:23:14 > 0:23:15He's won!
0:23:15 > 0:23:18Sir, you have indeed done your children proud.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20You may now marry your bride.
0:23:22 > 0:23:25And with that victory, it's time to get married.
0:23:26 > 0:23:3119 years after they got together and thanks to their daughters,
0:23:31 > 0:23:34Pete and Fran are finally going to tie the knot.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37I give you this ring as a symbol of our marriage.
0:23:37 > 0:23:40I love you and will always love you.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42I love you.
0:23:42 > 0:23:45I will love you until the end of all time.
0:23:45 > 0:23:48It now gives me very great pleasure to tell you
0:23:48 > 0:23:50that you are husband and wife.
0:23:52 > 0:23:54APPLAUSE
0:24:01 > 0:24:05That is the best wedding in the world. Thank you, girls! Thank you!
0:24:05 > 0:24:07It was brilliant, brilliant.
0:24:07 > 0:24:10Don't speak too soon, Mum, you haven't had your food yet.
0:24:10 > 0:24:13Time for some OFFAL Georgian grub.
0:24:13 > 0:24:17Ladies and gentlemen, may I present your dinner.
0:24:17 > 0:24:19We have pheasant casserole.
0:24:19 > 0:24:21And poached hake.
0:24:23 > 0:24:25That's the genuine Georgian grub for the guests.
0:24:25 > 0:24:28And of course, they're serving up something special for Dad.
0:24:28 > 0:24:32We've made a right pig's ear of this one!
0:24:32 > 0:24:35- It's literally a pig's ear. - You'll enjoy that.
0:24:35 > 0:24:36Oh, lovely, there it is.
0:24:36 > 0:24:38Yuck!
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Time for the girls to tell Dad his next gory Georgian challenge.
0:24:42 > 0:24:45Dad, you have to try everything.
0:24:45 > 0:24:47EVERYONE CHEERS
0:24:47 > 0:24:48Even the pig's ear.
0:24:48 > 0:24:51Looks like Dad bit of a bit more than he can chew
0:24:51 > 0:24:53by embarrassing his daughters.
0:24:55 > 0:24:57Our dad is always embarrassing us
0:24:57 > 0:25:00and now it's our turn to embarrass him. It's payback.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02You can say that again.
0:25:02 > 0:25:05Tuck in there. Enjoy yourself.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07And like a true sport, here he goes...
0:25:07 > 0:25:10Hang on, this one's still wearing an earring!
0:25:11 > 0:25:14Here we go, girls, here's the pigs ear.
0:25:20 > 0:25:23Pig's ear - that was very grisly
0:25:23 > 0:25:25and without the glasses on I couldn't tell
0:25:25 > 0:25:29if I was eating gristle, or if I was eating meat, or a bit of skin.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33Ugh! Don't know which sounds worse!
0:25:33 > 0:25:36- Is it nice?- No!
0:25:36 > 0:25:38As the guests tuck into their Georgian grub,
0:25:38 > 0:25:41time to find out what they thought of the day.
0:25:41 > 0:25:44My favourite part of the day was probably Fran and Pete
0:25:44 > 0:25:47arriving in a horse-driven carriage.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50Belle and Charlotte have done great
0:25:50 > 0:25:53and really made a great wedding day for their mum and dad.
0:25:53 > 0:25:57The amazement doesn't stop there. There's still one more surprise.
0:25:57 > 0:25:59Now, let them eat cake.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Charlotte and Belle have commissioned
0:26:01 > 0:26:05a special new work of art for this wedding day.
0:26:05 > 0:26:06Take it away, girls.
0:26:06 > 0:26:08Your wedding cake!
0:26:08 > 0:26:11APPLAUSE
0:26:11 > 0:26:13It's the world's first wig cake.
0:26:19 > 0:26:22With the cake cut, it's time for the guests to get jiggy with it...
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Georgian jig stylee!
0:26:24 > 0:26:26GEORGIAN MUSIC PLAYS
0:26:28 > 0:26:30So, let's find out
0:26:30 > 0:26:34whether this glorious Georgian day will go down in the history books?
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Today has been crazy, unforgettable...
0:26:39 > 0:26:42Amazing, extravagant...
0:26:42 > 0:26:45CHEERING
0:26:45 > 0:26:48And it's certainly been a day that Pete and Fran will never forget.
0:26:48 > 0:26:52The girls have so surpassed anything I could have dreamt of.
0:26:52 > 0:26:56Anything that I could have dreamt of them dreaming up!
0:26:56 > 0:27:00The girls are delighted they got payback on embarrassing Dad.
0:27:00 > 0:27:04- I think we embarrassed Dad enough. - Yeah.- Yeah, I think we managed.
0:27:04 > 0:27:06- Yeah.- I think, yeah, well... - Close enough, really.
0:27:06 > 0:27:09A little bit more embarrassment wouldn't have gone amiss.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11And Mum and Dad are thrilled that
0:27:11 > 0:27:14all their friends and family shared their historic day.
0:27:14 > 0:27:19- I'm so proud that they've made our day so very memorable.- Yeah.
0:27:19 > 0:27:23They've gathered all our family and our friends around us.
0:27:24 > 0:27:28Well done, Belle. We pulled off the perfect Georgian wedding. High-five.
0:27:35 > 0:27:38What an amazing wedding!
0:27:38 > 0:27:42Maybe for those poshos out there, but not for us, the workers.
0:27:42 > 0:27:45- Oh, did you have any of that wedding cake?- Wedding cake?
0:27:45 > 0:27:47No, that stuff rots your teeth.
