0:00:02 > 0:00:04- Marrying Mum And Dad is back! - CHEERING
0:00:04 > 0:00:07Say goodbye to boring, traditional ceremonies.
0:00:07 > 0:00:10And hello to crazy, action-packed weddings.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16But with only four weeks, can they pull it off?
0:00:16 > 0:00:18Put your back into it!
0:00:20 > 0:00:22It's the only show that puts kids in charge
0:00:22 > 0:00:25of their parents' wedding day. SCREAMING
0:00:25 > 0:00:27Open your eyes!
0:00:28 > 0:00:29Wow!
0:00:30 > 0:00:32Bigger, better and more outrageous... Ah!
0:00:32 > 0:00:34Than ever before!
0:00:36 > 0:00:39- This wedding was... - Incredible, amazing and crazy.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46On today's show, we have four kids who have herded together
0:00:46 > 0:00:48to plan their parents' wedding.
0:00:48 > 0:00:50Why do we need head measurements?
0:00:50 > 0:00:53Mum and Dad have already passed over control...
0:00:53 > 0:00:55With the laying on of hands,
0:00:55 > 0:01:00I now pronounce the kids officially, 100% in charge!
0:01:00 > 0:01:02Yes!
0:01:02 > 0:01:04Will they plan a mammoth-size wedding?
0:01:04 > 0:01:07TRUMPETING AND CHEERING
0:01:07 > 0:01:10Or will their purr-fect day end up being a howler?
0:01:10 > 0:01:13- Just what every bride wants on her wedding day.- Isn't it?
0:01:13 > 0:01:14A handful of poop.
0:01:14 > 0:01:16- We're about to find out... - Because we're...
0:01:16 > 0:01:18- ALL:- Marrying Mum and Dad!
0:01:18 > 0:01:20- CHEERING - Yes. Yes.
0:01:20 > 0:01:23THEY YAWN
0:01:43 > 0:01:46- Hi.- Hello. - Welcome to Marrying Mum And Dad.
0:01:46 > 0:01:47The show where you decide
0:01:47 > 0:01:49what happens on your parents' wedding day.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52- Why do they agree to it? - I have no idea.
0:01:52 > 0:01:54But one thing is certain, with you guys in the driving seat,
0:01:54 > 0:01:57it is going to be one action-packed day.
0:01:57 > 0:01:58So, let's strap ourselves in.
0:02:02 > 0:02:05Today, we're in Lincolnshire where four sisters
0:02:05 > 0:02:09are letting their wild side loose for this wedding.
0:02:09 > 0:02:12Meet Olivia - head of the pack.
0:02:12 > 0:02:14We're very close as sisters and we do everything together.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16Roaring in just behind is Tamzin.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21We've got lots of fun and very creative ideas for the wedding.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24And bringing up the rear are sisters Heidi...
0:02:25 > 0:02:27And Isla.
0:02:27 > 0:02:28And, finally, there's
0:02:28 > 0:02:30baby sister Zara. She won't be helping
0:02:30 > 0:02:32but will make sure
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Mum and Dad don't go snooping around.
0:02:34 > 0:02:35Good work.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39The lucky parents tying the knot are mum Bex...
0:02:39 > 0:02:42I don't think I'm going to be too good at handing over control
0:02:42 > 0:02:45cos I like to be in control of things,
0:02:45 > 0:02:48so I'm apprehensive about handing it over to the girls.
0:02:48 > 0:02:51And equally worried is dad Jim.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53I'm nervous about the day, because
0:02:53 > 0:02:55the girls probably feel as though
0:02:55 > 0:02:57they want to get their own back on me,
0:02:57 > 0:02:58and they know no boundaries.
0:02:58 > 0:03:00That's what we like to hear.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03But what do this swarm of sisters
0:03:03 > 0:03:05actually have in store for Mum and Dad?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08We want this wedding to be an African adventure.
0:03:08 > 0:03:11- ELEPHANT TRUMPETS - One we can take great pride in.
0:03:11 > 0:03:14- LION GROWLS - We're going to herd together...
0:03:14 > 0:03:16- MONKEY CHATTERS - And pray this comes off.
0:03:16 > 0:03:19- ALL:- Because our theme is safari!
0:03:19 > 0:03:21Rarrr!
0:03:23 > 0:03:27Jeepers, I've never heard of a safari-themed wedding.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30- It's going to be great. Roaring engines.- Yes. LION around.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Speeding through the Serengeti.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- Yeah, wild games. - Naught to 60 in three seconds.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38You do know this is a safari wedding,
0:03:38 > 0:03:40- not a Ferrari wedding, don't you? - Yes?
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Yeah. That's why you're wearing an explorer's hat.
0:03:42 > 0:03:44- I really like cars. - HORN BEEPS
0:03:44 > 0:03:46Ooh!
0:03:46 > 0:03:50Well, you'd better buckle up, Ed, because our wedding planners
0:03:50 > 0:03:53are already stampeding ahead with their plans for the big day.
0:03:54 > 0:03:56What about a Jeep or something like that?
0:03:56 > 0:03:58But with just four weeks to organise everything,
0:03:58 > 0:04:01this lot need to be faster than a cheetah.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05Don't worry, girls, because we've got something that can help.
0:04:05 > 0:04:07It's a bit wild, but we're sure you can tame it.
0:04:08 > 0:04:13This is the Marrying Mum And Dad mobile HQ.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16Rammed full of tech and everything our planners could possibly need
0:04:16 > 0:04:18to make their wedding dreams come true.
0:04:18 > 0:04:22And best of all, this beast doesn't like parents,
0:04:22 > 0:04:25so our organisers can plan in peace and quiet.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27Ah!
0:04:27 > 0:04:29It'll be charging its way to our kids' houses
0:04:29 > 0:04:31to help them organise their weddings.
0:04:31 > 0:04:34- Who wants to plan a wedding? - ALL:- Me!
0:04:34 > 0:04:36- THEY LAUGH - Get on board!
0:04:36 > 0:04:40And with not a moment to lose, it's straight to business.
0:04:40 > 0:04:42It's a great theme. Why did you go with safari?
0:04:42 > 0:04:44Cos Mum and Dad always talk about how much they enjoyed it
0:04:44 > 0:04:46when they went to Africa and saw the animals.
0:04:46 > 0:04:48When did they do that?
0:04:48 > 0:04:50When they got together, they went travelling for a year.
0:04:50 > 0:04:53- In 1892. - THEY LAUGH
0:04:54 > 0:04:57A safari park is a massive area of parkland
0:04:57 > 0:04:59where loads of wild animals roam free
0:04:59 > 0:05:02and visitors can drive around and check them out
0:05:02 > 0:05:04in their natural habitats.
0:05:04 > 0:05:06They're mostly in Africa
0:05:06 > 0:05:08and are home to lots of exotic creatures,
0:05:08 > 0:05:12so these girls want to bring the African prairies to Blighty.
0:05:12 > 0:05:13Easy, right?
0:05:15 > 0:05:19- Where do you want the wedding to take place?- A safari park.
0:05:19 > 0:05:20So, would it all be outside?
0:05:20 > 0:05:23Yeah, apart from when Mum and Dad are saying, "I do."
0:05:23 > 0:05:25- Could be quite chilly, couldn't it? - Yeah.
0:05:25 > 0:05:27- But you still want the wedding outside?- Yeah.- Yeah.
0:05:27 > 0:05:29- You're willing to take that risk? - Yeah.
0:05:29 > 0:05:32It's a big gamble expecting baking African plains
0:05:32 > 0:05:34in the damp English countryside,
0:05:34 > 0:05:37so how would Mum feel about an outside wedding?
0:05:37 > 0:05:41On my wedding day, I'd like to be somewhere nice and dry.
0:05:41 > 0:05:46I think the worst thing would be to be cold and wet.
0:05:46 > 0:05:47Uh-oh.
0:05:47 > 0:05:49Seems the girls have got different ideas to Mum
0:05:49 > 0:05:52about what makes a perfect wedding.
0:05:52 > 0:05:55Let's hope the weather on the day is more scorching savanna
0:05:55 > 0:05:56than soggy Lincolnshire.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03So, the kids want Mum and Dad married in a safari park,
0:06:03 > 0:06:06and luckily for them, there's one on their doorstep.
0:06:06 > 0:06:08But surely you can't get hitched in a wildlife park?
0:06:08 > 0:06:10- PHONE RINGS PHONE:- 'Good afternoon.'
0:06:10 > 0:06:13Hello. I was wondering if you did weddings there,
0:06:13 > 0:06:14cos we're planning a wedding.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17'We do have weddings at the park.
0:06:17 > 0:06:19'Did you want to come and have a look at the rooms?'
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Yeah, that'd be great, thank you.
0:06:21 > 0:06:22Safari, so good.
0:06:22 > 0:06:27# Kuye kwamemeza baprofethi emandulo. #
0:06:27 > 0:06:29Next it's time to check out the park
0:06:29 > 0:06:31and see if it's what they have in mind.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35And to get up close with these exotic creatures
0:06:35 > 0:06:37That's Ed I'm referring to.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39Well, they've definitely got animals.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42- Shall we get out of here and have more of a look around?- Yeah!- Yeah!
0:06:42 > 0:06:43Argh!
0:06:43 > 0:06:45Quit monkeying around, Ed.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48It's time for the girls to get their hands dirty.
0:06:48 > 0:06:50So, who wants to feed the giraffes?
0:06:50 > 0:06:51- ALL:- Me!
0:06:51 > 0:06:54- Oh, hello.- Oh!
0:06:54 > 0:06:56It's Giraffic Park.
0:06:57 > 0:07:00- Ew! - THEY LAUGH
0:07:00 > 0:07:03- You just got spat on by a giraffe. - Oh!
0:07:03 > 0:07:05I'm sure he was aiming for Ed.
0:07:05 > 0:07:06Oh, charming.
0:07:08 > 0:07:13This park is perfect and has all the animals you could possibly want
0:07:13 > 0:07:14for a safari wedding.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17Maybe we could get your dad to fight a leopard on the wedding day.
0:07:17 > 0:07:19- What do you think?- Hmm.
0:07:19 > 0:07:23- Might just be a little bit dangerous.- Yeah? Aw.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26So far, it's a roaring success,
0:07:26 > 0:07:29but what about where Mum and Dad can tie the knot?
0:07:29 > 0:07:32This is the room where your mum and dad can get married.
0:07:32 > 0:07:35- Wow. It's loads bigger than I thought.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38It's really wild outside, but boringly tame inside
0:07:38 > 0:07:42so the girls have a massive job on their hands.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45Fortunately, they've got great plans to turn this dull office
0:07:45 > 0:07:47into an African extravaganza.
0:07:47 > 0:07:51I think we should get some trees and animals to make it look jungle-y.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54Trees like that would be good to make it look jungle-y.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57Going to have to decorate it quite a lot for it not to feel
0:07:57 > 0:07:59like an office function room.
0:07:59 > 0:08:02It's a huge task to turn this plain room
0:08:02 > 0:08:04into a jungle jamboree.
0:08:04 > 0:08:07Let's hope the girls can pull the cat - or the tiger -
0:08:07 > 0:08:08out of the bag.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11CAT MEOWS
0:08:12 > 0:08:15The girls wanted to use a Jeep for transportation,
0:08:15 > 0:08:18but the safari park has a no-cars policy
0:08:18 > 0:08:21so it's back to the drawing board.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23- What are we going to do to transport?- Ride a giraffe.
0:08:23 > 0:08:26- Riding a giraffe?- Yeah. - Rather them than me.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29- I think that would be a bit difficult.- Yeah.
0:08:29 > 0:08:32- Don't know how you'd get down. - No. Or how you'd get up.- Ladders?
0:08:32 > 0:08:35THEY LAUGH
0:08:35 > 0:08:36If you were on an actual safari,
0:08:36 > 0:08:38how would you go about finding the animals?
0:08:38 > 0:08:41You'd probably have a ranger do some tracking.
0:08:41 > 0:08:42Is that something we could do?
0:08:42 > 0:08:43They could track you.
0:08:43 > 0:08:45Track me?
0:08:45 > 0:08:47The kids have decided to ditch transport
0:08:47 > 0:08:50and instead they want to go with something completely different -
0:08:50 > 0:08:52tracking.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58Safari parks are absolutely massive
0:08:58 > 0:09:00and the animals can go wherever they please,
0:09:00 > 0:09:04so to see them you need a ranger who's an expert in finding them.
0:09:05 > 0:09:09And if the girls want Mum and Dad to track down Naomi on the day,
0:09:09 > 0:09:12they need to learn how to do it themselves.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14And luckily, I know a thing or two about it.
0:09:14 > 0:09:17All right, then, girls, if you want to do some tracking,
0:09:17 > 0:09:19there are just a few things you need to know.
0:09:19 > 0:09:22SHE COUGHS CONSPICUOUSLY
0:09:24 > 0:09:26- Who...who are you?- Hi. I'm Tom.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28And he's an expert tracker.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Sorry, Naomi.
0:09:30 > 0:09:32Looks like these kids have taken things into their own hands
0:09:32 > 0:09:35and gone with the real deal.
0:09:35 > 0:09:36There's a few things to look out for
0:09:36 > 0:09:38if you're going to be tracking an animal.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Probably the first thing you want to look for is tracks.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45Yes, that's what I was going to say. Always look for animal tracks first.
0:09:45 > 0:09:46Tom knows his stuff,
0:09:46 > 0:09:49and straightaway he's found something.
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Just there is a badger footprint.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54- Oh, yeah.- You can see all the little pads on all five toes.
0:09:54 > 0:09:55Aw!
0:09:56 > 0:10:00But there are smellier things than footprints to look out for.
0:10:00 > 0:10:03Can you think of anything else that an animal might have, um,
0:10:03 > 0:10:04left behind?
0:10:04 > 0:10:06- Their poo.- That's right.
0:10:06 > 0:10:09You can see here that these little brown pellets,
0:10:09 > 0:10:11they're from a muntjac deer.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13This dark bitty one, that's from a badger.
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Oh!
0:10:15 > 0:10:17If you opened that one, you'd definitely recognise the smell.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20I don't recommend that you go around sniffing poos, though.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22Eugh. Me neither.
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Anyway, what else can we find to track animals?
0:10:25 > 0:10:28- That shell has been busted right open by something.- Ah!
0:10:28 > 0:10:31Cos of the way it's been neatly nibbled around the top,
0:10:31 > 0:10:32- probably is a squirrel. - A squirrel.- Yeah.
0:10:32 > 0:10:35So, animals leave behind footprints, droppings
0:10:35 > 0:10:38and also bits of food they've eaten.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41This has given the girls loads of ideas
0:10:41 > 0:10:44on how Mum and Dad can find me on the big day,
0:10:44 > 0:10:46and it looks like tracking is gaining traction.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Now the planners turn their attention
0:10:52 > 0:10:54to what everyone is going to be wearing.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58And these horse-crazed girls want Mum and Dad dressed
0:10:58 > 0:11:00as the horse's exotic African cousin.
0:11:00 > 0:11:02A lot of thought seems to have gone into the outfits.
0:11:02 > 0:11:05- Yeah.- What are you thinking? - Mum and Dad could be zebra print.
0:11:05 > 0:11:07Oh, that's good, cos brides often have a white dress,
0:11:07 > 0:11:10- so a black and white dress.- Yeah. - Ah.
0:11:10 > 0:11:12So, Dad is dressed in zebra print as well.
0:11:12 > 0:11:15Yeah. We want him to have a zebra-print blazer,
0:11:15 > 0:11:18and then a zebra-print tie, black top.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19Hasn't he got one already?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22- He hasn't got a zebra-print blazer? - BOTH:- No.- Oh!
0:11:22 > 0:11:24The girls want Mum and Dad
0:11:24 > 0:11:26heading up the herd dressed as zebras,
0:11:26 > 0:11:28but is being covered head to toe in stripes
0:11:28 > 0:11:31Dad's idea of striking wedding attire?
0:11:31 > 0:11:35I think I'd like to wear something quite smart, I think.
0:11:35 > 0:11:39But, well, nothing too daft.
0:11:41 > 0:11:43Well, if a zebra-print suit isn't crazy enough,
0:11:43 > 0:11:45the girls aren't stopping there
0:11:45 > 0:11:48and aim to finish off the look with some elaborate headgear.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50- I like these.- That's cool. I like that.
0:11:50 > 0:11:51Shall we try Skypeing her?
0:11:51 > 0:11:53- Yeah.- Hello.- 'How you doing?'
0:11:53 > 0:11:55We was wondering if you could help us
0:11:55 > 0:11:58- out with some costumes for the wedding.- 'Yeah, no problem.'
0:11:58 > 0:12:01We needed an elephant, a monkey, giraffe.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04We've got two zebras getting married as well.
0:12:04 > 0:12:07'OK, so, a zebra kind of head mask or something?'
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- Yeah.- Yeah? - 'I think I can probably do it.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12'Would you be able to send me some measurements,
0:12:12 > 0:12:14'so I can make sure they fit people?'
0:12:14 > 0:12:17You have to do it sneakily, while they're asleep.
0:12:17 > 0:12:19'OK, well, I best get cracking then, eh?'
0:12:19 > 0:12:22Yeah, hurry up. Get a move on. Why are you talking to us?
0:12:22 > 0:12:24- THEY LAUGH - 'See you, then.'
0:12:24 > 0:12:26- Bye.- Thank you. Bye.- Thank you.
0:12:26 > 0:12:30So, that's wacky animal hats ordered.
0:12:30 > 0:12:31With the measurements sent off...
0:12:31 > 0:12:35And Mum and Dad left without a clue about what's going on...
0:12:35 > 0:12:38- OK, so, we're just going to do some head measurements.- OK, I see.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41- Why do we need head measurements? - SHE LAUGHS
0:12:41 > 0:12:42I can't tell you that bit, Mum.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45..it looks like these outfits are fair game.
0:12:45 > 0:12:48MONKEY CHATTERS
0:12:48 > 0:12:51A wild wedding needs a deadly and delicious cake,
0:12:51 > 0:12:54and the girls are hoping their idea will knock normal cakes
0:12:54 > 0:12:56out of the park.
0:12:56 > 0:12:57Talk me through the cake, then.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59We had the idea where an elephant
0:12:59 > 0:13:01was on top of the cake and its trunk was dangling
0:13:01 > 0:13:04down to the bottom squirting icing or chocolate all over the cake.
0:13:04 > 0:13:05Ah. What would you like it to squirt?
0:13:05 > 0:13:09- Chocolate.- Chocolate.- Ah. - THEY LAUGH
0:13:10 > 0:13:13The girls want a cake with an elephant head on top
0:13:13 > 0:13:18squirting chocolate from its trunk but need to work out a way to do it.
0:13:18 > 0:13:20So, they've turned to science for some inspiration.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23- Reckon we can do better than that? - Yeah.
0:13:23 > 0:13:26Meet super scientist Ben Ford.
0:13:26 > 0:13:30He's got a bag of tricks to get this cake off the ground.
0:13:30 > 0:13:32So, if we're going to propel something,
0:13:32 > 0:13:33we're going to need some pressure.
0:13:33 > 0:13:36Best way to make pressure is by making some gas.
0:13:36 > 0:13:38So, this first experiment we've got,
0:13:38 > 0:13:41we're going to use some hydrogen peroxide
0:13:41 > 0:13:43and we're going to pour it into our flask here.
0:13:43 > 0:13:46And for those of you watching who've got some of this stuff at home,
0:13:46 > 0:13:47don't mix it up and do this.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50Could end really badly.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52It's almost time to let this rip.
0:13:52 > 0:13:54Now we add the last little bit.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03Whoa! That's amazing!
0:14:03 > 0:14:05As the chemicals react,
0:14:05 > 0:14:09the gas forces the foam to shoot over 5m into the air.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11The girls are happier than a laughing hyena
0:14:11 > 0:14:13and it looks like we've got a winner.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15Can we have that for the cake?
0:14:15 > 0:14:18Cake? No, no, no. This is covered in chemicals.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20I'm sorry. We can't put this anywhere near a cake.
0:14:20 > 0:14:22That's a very good point, actually.
0:14:22 > 0:14:24- It would make everyone at the wedding really ill.- Mm.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28Oh, dear. Plan A has sunk like a hippo,
0:14:28 > 0:14:32so it's on to plan B - an edible option of sweets and cola.
0:14:32 > 0:14:35But it doesn't go exactly to plan.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37- Back, back, back, back, back. - Go, go!
0:14:37 > 0:14:40- THEY LAUGH - Whay!- Argh!
0:14:42 > 0:14:47Well, it definitely works, but how does the cake and cola combo taste?
0:14:47 > 0:14:50There you go, Isla. Tuck in.
0:14:51 > 0:14:54Mm. Soggy cake.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56- I'm not sure about it. - I don't like it.
0:14:56 > 0:14:59- Gross. - THEY LAUGH
0:14:59 > 0:15:01You got anything else up your sleeve, Ben?
0:15:01 > 0:15:03I think I've got one more thing that we can try, OK?
0:15:03 > 0:15:08It's time for plan C - firing chocolate out of a CO2 canon.
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Hopefully this plan does blow up.
0:15:11 > 0:15:13- Do you need some of mine? - I think we're good now.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16- Really? OK.- I don't think we'll fit any more in.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19Right, let's do this!
0:15:19 > 0:15:24- ALL:- Five, four, three, two, one.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26- Blastoff!- Go!
0:15:26 > 0:15:28Success!
0:15:28 > 0:15:30How about that for the wedding cake?
0:15:30 > 0:15:32- Yeah.- Yeah?- Yeah.- Brilliant.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35The CO2 cannon is bang-on,
0:15:35 > 0:15:37and that's the trunk of this cake sorted.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41For entertainment,
0:15:41 > 0:15:44our devious planners want Mum and Dad to get messy
0:15:44 > 0:15:46and bathe an elephant.
0:15:46 > 0:15:49But as the safari park doesn't have any,
0:15:49 > 0:15:52they've brought me to a props maker to build one.
0:15:52 > 0:15:56Building an elephant? They're not serious, are they?
0:15:56 > 0:15:59Right, then, Henry, what is all this about?
0:15:59 > 0:16:02- This is an elephant's head.- Doesn't look like an elephant's head.
0:16:02 > 0:16:04No, not at the moment, but I've got a nice plan over there.
0:16:04 > 0:16:07Hopefully you can work it out and help me put it together.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10It seems building a life-size model elephant
0:16:10 > 0:16:12isn't as easy as you may think.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14There's loads of parts just for the head.
0:16:14 > 0:16:18Let's hope these girls are all go-go and less Dumbo.
0:16:18 > 0:16:20- There we go.- There we go.
0:16:20 > 0:16:23Your way. To you a bit. That's it.
0:16:25 > 0:16:28There we go. Yes.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30It's really starting to take shape,
0:16:30 > 0:16:32and it's looking like it could be one of Marrying Mum And Dad's
0:16:32 > 0:16:35biggest ever builds.
0:16:35 > 0:16:39- Whoa.- This is just the head! It's nearly as tall as you.
0:16:39 > 0:16:41Bit of jiggery-pokery.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43Yes, yes.
0:16:43 > 0:16:47OK, Naomi. I'll hand it to you, you're doing a good job.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50- SHE GASPS - Or should I say a cracking job?
0:16:51 > 0:16:52I think we're OK.
0:16:54 > 0:16:55Fortunately, it's still intact,
0:16:55 > 0:16:57and as the girls add the final touches,
0:16:57 > 0:17:00their design really comes to life.
0:17:00 > 0:17:03Aha! All becomes clear.
0:17:03 > 0:17:06- Oh, and they flap.- Yeah.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09- Is this going to be all right?- Yeah. It's amazing.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12So, with a life-sized elephant on track,
0:17:12 > 0:17:14it looks like Mum and Dad will be cleaning up
0:17:14 > 0:17:15on their wedding day after all.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Let's hope they're up to the TUSK.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20ELEPHANT TRUMPETS
0:17:21 > 0:17:24In just four weeks, the girls have had a right giraffe.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28- You just got spat on by a giraffe. - Oh!
0:17:28 > 0:17:30They've burst onto the scene.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32Oh!
0:17:32 > 0:17:34Learnt how to track animals.
0:17:34 > 0:17:36That, probably, is a squirrel.
0:17:36 > 0:17:37And pulled this
0:17:37 > 0:17:40wild wedding together. SHE GASPS
0:17:40 > 0:17:43It's going to be an African extravaganza.
0:17:43 > 0:17:45Let's hope it's a roaring success.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48- LION GROWLS - And as the wedding draws closer,
0:17:48 > 0:17:49nerves are starting to get the better
0:17:49 > 0:17:52of Mum and Dad.
0:17:52 > 0:17:53'Mum, how are you feeling about us
0:17:53 > 0:17:55'organising the whole wedding?'
0:17:55 > 0:17:58I'm feeling a bit scared!
0:17:58 > 0:18:00Should we be nervous?
0:18:00 > 0:18:01'Well, I would be if I was you.'
0:18:01 > 0:18:04Oh, dear.
0:18:04 > 0:18:05That's right, Dad.
0:18:05 > 0:18:09These stealthy sisters have got some shocks in store for you.
0:18:12 > 0:18:15It's the morning of the wedding and the girls are putting
0:18:15 > 0:18:17their final paw prints on the tracking plan
0:18:17 > 0:18:19which will get Mum and Dad to their venue.
0:18:19 > 0:18:21Naomi, you're going to be a creature we've made up
0:18:21 > 0:18:23and Mum and Dad are going to follow you
0:18:23 > 0:18:25and then that's going to lead them to the venue.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28At the squirrel monkeys, we'll look for droppings.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31And at the lemur woods, we're going to look for food.
0:18:31 > 0:18:33And then, Naomi, if you run in,
0:18:33 > 0:18:36everyone will follow you into the room where the guests are.
0:18:36 > 0:18:39Unaware of the plan being hatched by their children,
0:18:39 > 0:18:43Mum and Dad are getting twitchy about what lies in wait for them.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45Feeling very nervous this morning now.
0:18:45 > 0:18:46It's getting so close.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48I just want to know what we're doing.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50I can't believe that the girls
0:18:50 > 0:18:52haven't let anything slip whatsoever.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56They've been winding us up. That's why I'm nervous.
0:18:56 > 0:18:59And as Jim gets the heads up on his outfit...
0:18:59 > 0:19:01What is this?
0:19:01 > 0:19:04- HE LAUGHS - What is this?
0:19:04 > 0:19:08It's almost time for the big reveal, with me and Naomi as explorers...
0:19:08 > 0:19:12And the girls in amazing African animal costumes.
0:19:12 > 0:19:14I don't think Mum and Dad will need a degree
0:19:14 > 0:19:17in al-zebra to guess this theme.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Shall we get Mum and Dad out here, show them what they look like?
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- ALL:- Yeah.- Yeah. Come on, then. Let's get into places.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24Let's hope they are laughing like hyenas
0:19:24 > 0:19:27rather than growling like lions.
0:19:27 > 0:19:30- ALL:- Three, two, one.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Open your eyes!
0:19:34 > 0:19:36- Love it.- I love it!
0:19:36 > 0:19:40- Oh, wow!- Oh, look! - Oh, you look amazing!- Superb!
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- Oh, you look excellent, all of you. - Awesome.
0:19:43 > 0:19:46Any chance you can guess what the theme might be?
0:19:46 > 0:19:49- Safari?- Safari.- Hooray!
0:19:49 > 0:19:52As one leopard said to the other, you're spot-on.
0:19:52 > 0:19:55- I love it.- Beautiful. - I absolutely love it, yeah.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56- You look lovely.- Thank you.
0:19:56 > 0:19:58- Not many wedding dresses like that. - You did a fab job.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59Well done, girls.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03- You look amazing. - They really look great.
0:20:03 > 0:20:07I can't get to any of them! I'll blow kisses.
0:20:07 > 0:20:11Now Mum and Dad know the theme, it's time to get this safari started.
0:20:11 > 0:20:15And while I dress up as an animal, the girls have invented...
0:20:15 > 0:20:17I get into a character as a 1920s explorer.
0:20:17 > 0:20:20- POSHLY:- During the course of my 75-year career,
0:20:20 > 0:20:23I have discovered over 40 species of animal,
0:20:23 > 0:20:26including the Australian foxodile,
0:20:26 > 0:20:32Arabian camelsnake and the Bolivian catdog.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35But there's one creature that has always eluded me -
0:20:35 > 0:20:38- the Lincolnshire rat monkey. - LAUGHTER
0:20:38 > 0:20:43I nearly caught the little blighter on an expedition in 1935.
0:20:43 > 0:20:45'In deepest, darkest Lincolnshire.
0:20:47 > 0:20:49'I'd been tracking him for six months,
0:20:49 > 0:20:51'but he constantly eluded me.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54'Just when I thought I'd found the little blighter,
0:20:54 > 0:20:56'I lost the trail. Oh.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58'After years of research,
0:20:58 > 0:21:01'I've discovered he likes to gate-crash weddings,
0:21:01 > 0:21:03'and that's where you come in.'
0:21:03 > 0:21:05We find the rat monkey,
0:21:05 > 0:21:07we'll have found where you're getting married.
0:21:07 > 0:21:11- Get it?- Oh!- Right.- Yes.- We're on an expedition.- Challenge on.
0:21:11 > 0:21:12Let's go. This way.
0:21:12 > 0:21:16First step is to look for droppings that the girls have planted.
0:21:16 > 0:21:19I want your eyes to be like oranges - peeled.
0:21:19 > 0:21:21And after a bit of searching,
0:21:21 > 0:21:24Dad finds a present left by the rat monkey.
0:21:24 > 0:21:26Ah, wait a minute.
0:21:26 > 0:21:30- Oh.- Have you found something? - HE LAUGHS
0:21:30 > 0:21:34- What have you got there, Dad? You better pick it up.- Are you sure?
0:21:34 > 0:21:36- Yes, yes. - LAUGHTER
0:21:36 > 0:21:37Oh, it's a fine specimen.
0:21:39 > 0:21:42- Does it feel a bit like plastic? - Oh, yes.
0:21:42 > 0:21:45Ah! Rat monkey.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Well done, Dad. We're on the right track.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50And after following a trail of monkey muck...
0:21:50 > 0:21:52Yes, this is definite specimen.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54Just what every bride wants on her wedding day.
0:21:54 > 0:21:55- Isn't it?- Handful of poop.
0:21:55 > 0:22:00..we arrive in the lemur woods to find rat monkey leftovers.
0:22:02 > 0:22:05So, Mum and Dad, can you find any misplaced food around here?
0:22:05 > 0:22:07It doesn't take long for Mum
0:22:07 > 0:22:09to find signs of rat monkey's favourite food.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Ooh! What's this I've found?
0:22:12 > 0:22:15- What's that, Heidi?- Cheese?
0:22:15 > 0:22:17- Cheese.- It looks like cheese. - Cheese!
0:22:17 > 0:22:18I think you're right, yes.
0:22:18 > 0:22:21Stinking Bishop, if I'm not mistaken.
0:22:21 > 0:22:24This is very good indeed. We've got to follow the cheese trail.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27And after following the food rat monkey has left behind...
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Ah! A reduced sticker.
0:22:29 > 0:22:32The rat monkey is a notoriously frugal animal.
0:22:32 > 0:22:35Likes a bargain. We're definitely on the right trail.
0:22:35 > 0:22:40..we finally cross paths with this most secretive of creatures.
0:22:40 > 0:22:42- It's over there! Look! - Oh, my goodness.
0:22:42 > 0:22:45- What is it?- It's incredible!
0:22:47 > 0:22:49And very ugly.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51BLOWS RASPBERRY
0:22:51 > 0:22:53Let's get it!
0:22:53 > 0:22:54It's got a lot of energy.
0:22:54 > 0:22:57While Mum and Dad are chasing Naomi...
0:22:57 > 0:22:59little do they know that she's leading them
0:22:59 > 0:23:02to an incredible jungle hideaway.
0:23:02 > 0:23:06The girls have transformed what was once a dull grey office
0:23:06 > 0:23:08into an impressive African rainforest
0:23:08 > 0:23:11fit for any zebra to tie the knot.
0:23:11 > 0:23:15We're definitely getting closer. I can feel it in my bones.
0:23:15 > 0:23:19And it's where all the guests are waiting in full animal attire.
0:23:19 > 0:23:23Everybody ready! They're coming!
0:23:25 > 0:23:28CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Are you ready to get married?
0:23:36 > 0:23:39- We're ready. - CHEERING
0:23:39 > 0:23:43Now that Mum and Dad have tracked down Naomi and been united
0:23:43 > 0:23:45- with their c-LION-tele... - LION GROWLS
0:23:45 > 0:23:48It's time for these two zebras to say "I do."
0:23:48 > 0:23:54- Do you, James, take Rebecca to be your lawful wedded wife?- I do.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57And it's an emotional affair for everyone.
0:23:57 > 0:24:00I call upon these persons here present to witness
0:24:00 > 0:24:05that I do take thee to be my lawful, wedded wife.
0:24:05 > 0:24:09I give you this ring as a symbol of my love and commitment
0:24:09 > 0:24:14and as a lasting reminder of the vows made between us today.
0:24:14 > 0:24:18It now gives me the greatest of pleasure to pronounce
0:24:18 > 0:24:20that you are husband and wife.
0:24:20 > 0:24:25- Thank you. - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:24:25 > 0:24:30And there it is. Jim and Bex are finally husband and wife.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32But this wedding is far from over.
0:24:32 > 0:24:36It's time to hit the plains for some explosive animal cake.
0:24:39 > 0:24:41Would you like to see your wedding cake?
0:24:41 > 0:24:44- We'd love to see it.- Yes, please. - You can open your eyes now!
0:24:44 > 0:24:48- Oh!- Oh, wow! That's amazing! - That is amazing!
0:24:48 > 0:24:51- Wow.- Oh, that's awesome.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Leopard, giraffe, lion. It's brilliant.
0:24:54 > 0:24:58There's a canon in the trunk with chocolate balls in it.
0:24:58 > 0:25:01- Wow.- Brilliant!
0:25:01 > 0:25:03- Like the sound of that? - Love the sound of that.
0:25:03 > 0:25:05Well, there's a catch.
0:25:05 > 0:25:07You can't have any cake unless
0:25:07 > 0:25:09you do a little job for us in the park.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13- And everyone really wants some cake, don't you, everyone?- ALL:- Yeah!
0:25:13 > 0:25:16- Will you do a tiny little job for us in the park?- 'Course we will.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18You can have your cake then.
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Ha-ha!
0:25:19 > 0:25:22Little do they know it, but Mum and Dad have just agreed
0:25:22 > 0:25:23to clean a filthy elephant.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26It's every bride's dream come true.
0:25:26 > 0:25:28- All at the ready?- All ready.
0:25:28 > 0:25:31- ALL:- Three, two, one, go!
0:25:31 > 0:25:34TRUMPETING
0:25:34 > 0:25:36We have blastoff!
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Now that the cake has been guzzled down by animals,
0:25:40 > 0:25:44it's time for some elephant entertainment.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47Standing over 2.5m tall and 3m long,
