0:00:02 > 0:00:03Marrying Mum And Dad is back!
0:00:03 > 0:00:05CHEERING
0:00:05 > 0:00:08It's the only show that puts the kids in charge of planning
0:00:08 > 0:00:09their parents' wedding day.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14Are you sure you want to inflict this on their wedding day?
0:00:14 > 0:00:15- BOTH:- Yeah.
0:00:15 > 0:00:16Let's dance!
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Say goodbye to boring, traditional ceremonies.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23They're late.
0:00:23 > 0:00:27And hello to crazy, action-packed weddings.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28Open your eyes!
0:00:32 > 0:00:34In only four weeks, can they pull it off?
0:00:38 > 0:00:40Time to get back at the parents.
0:00:40 > 0:00:41THEY GIGGLE
0:00:43 > 0:00:47On today's show, we've got two kids who are already wearing the crown
0:00:47 > 0:00:49of wedding planning power.
0:00:49 > 0:00:50So, with the joining of hands,
0:00:50 > 0:00:55I now pronounce you, Claudia and Freya, 100% in charge!
0:00:55 > 0:00:57Woohoo!
0:00:57 > 0:01:00The girls are taking us back in time for a big day
0:01:00 > 0:01:02that could go down in the history books.
0:01:03 > 0:01:05Wow!
0:01:05 > 0:01:07But will love conquer all?
0:01:07 > 0:01:09- Are you going to do it? - Of course I am.
0:01:09 > 0:01:13Or is this royal wedding going to end unhappily ever after?
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!
0:01:43 > 0:01:45Welcome to Marrying Mum And Dad,
0:01:45 > 0:01:49- the show where what you do comes before the "I do".- Yep.
0:01:49 > 0:01:52The kids are totally in control and Mum and Dad know nothing
0:01:52 > 0:01:53about the wedding day.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55What you say goes.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58A wild wedding, a funny wedding, a romantic wedding,
0:01:58 > 0:01:59it is totally up to you.
0:01:59 > 0:02:03The only thing that is certain is you better be up to the job.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07Today, we're in Cheshire, where our planners are ready
0:02:07 > 0:02:10to burst into action.
0:02:10 > 0:02:11Meet Claudia...
0:02:11 > 0:02:13And her best friend Freya.
0:02:13 > 0:02:16Together they make the perfect team.
0:02:16 > 0:02:18I'm Fudge, how are you?
0:02:18 > 0:02:20We're sisters. Why don't we know our own names?
0:02:20 > 0:02:22Talking guinea pigs?
0:02:22 > 0:02:24Has the pressure of planning already got to them?
0:02:24 > 0:02:28Claudia knows what she wants and when she wants it.
0:02:28 > 0:02:32Demanding and strong-minded, hmm, this could spell trouble.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Freya is very loud and up in people's faces,
0:02:34 > 0:02:36but that's not a bad thing.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Sounds like these two know what they want
0:02:39 > 0:02:41and they can't wait to get started,
0:02:41 > 0:02:44organising a wedding to remember for Claudia's mum, Claire.
0:02:44 > 0:02:47My biggest worry is that I'm going to have to do
0:02:47 > 0:02:48something I don't want to do.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50And her dad, Billy.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52I suppose she might stitch us up.
0:02:52 > 0:02:54Fair enough, I'd do that to my mum and dad.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56I think Dad might be onto something.
0:02:56 > 0:02:59My message to my mum and dad would be watch out.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04Yes, Billy, your suspicions were correct
0:03:04 > 0:03:07and these girls have a passion for something that should provide
0:03:07 > 0:03:09the perfect theme for the wedding.
0:03:09 > 0:03:10BOTH: We love our history!
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Knights in shining armour.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15- Catherine Parr.- Henry VIII.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17And that's why we're going back in history for our wedding...
0:03:17 > 0:03:20- To the time of... - BOTH: The Tudors!
0:03:23 > 0:03:27The Tudors are one of the most famous families in British history.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30That's because they ruled England for over 100 years,
0:03:30 > 0:03:33between 1485 and 1603.
0:03:33 > 0:03:35Their main man was Henry VIII and you could say
0:03:35 > 0:03:37he was an expert when it came to marriage.
0:03:37 > 0:03:40- He had six wives. - 'Off with her head!'
0:03:40 > 0:03:43But not all of them lived happily ever after.
0:03:43 > 0:03:45They all look a bit similar.
0:03:45 > 0:03:47Six wives, hey? Little bit greedy.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49Well, getting married was easy for Henry.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52He probably had a whole army of ye olde wedding planners.
0:03:52 > 0:03:58Yeah, and we've got two and the wedding is just weeks away.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01The good news is, Claudia and Freya have already been busy,
0:04:01 > 0:04:04but we're going to make sure they stay in the driving seat.
0:04:07 > 0:04:10This is the Marrying Mum And Dad mobile HQ.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13It's jam-packed with all the tech and essential kit
0:04:13 > 0:04:16our planners will need to make their wedding dreams a reality.
0:04:17 > 0:04:21It's attention-grabbing on the outside and more importantly,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23inside it's a parent-free zone.
0:04:23 > 0:04:25Now we're talking.
0:04:26 > 0:04:28It'll be rocking up at our family's home,
0:04:28 > 0:04:32so the kids can plan everything in secret, away from prying eyes.
0:04:34 > 0:04:39Check it out, our Marrying Mum And Dad mobile HQ.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41- That is...- Wow.
0:04:41 > 0:04:43- ..really...- I love it.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Do you want to go and have a look around inside? In you come.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- Really, really, really cool.- Wow.
0:04:51 > 0:04:52How nice is this?
0:04:52 > 0:04:55Really, really cool.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Having their very own mission control
0:04:57 > 0:05:00means the girls are now firing on all cylinders.
0:05:00 > 0:05:03So, let's hear more about their ideas for the big day.
0:05:03 > 0:05:06So, why have you chosen this theme?
0:05:06 > 0:05:09Because in year five we did a project about the Tudors
0:05:09 > 0:05:11and my parents helped me and Freya.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14And, then, we, like, all got really interested in the Tudors, so...
0:05:14 > 0:05:16What is it about the Tudors that you think would work
0:05:16 > 0:05:18- really well for a wedding? - The outfits, especially.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21The venue. Basically, just all the class.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24Have you got any ideas of what you want them to be?
0:05:24 > 0:05:26Yes. My dad's going to be Henry VIII.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28We're going to give him a big, fat sumo suit.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30And big sideburns and...
0:05:30 > 0:05:33Like, a beard and we're going to dye his hair orange.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35Uh... Hang on a minute.
0:05:35 > 0:05:39Would a ginger beard and a fat suit be what ex-army staff sergeant Dad
0:05:39 > 0:05:41would have in mind for his perfect big day?
0:05:41 > 0:05:44My ideal wedding would be in soldier's uniform,
0:05:44 > 0:05:46in a military-style wedding.
0:05:47 > 0:05:51Uh-oh. Sounds like Billy isn't desperate to be a Tudor king.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53But tough luck, Dad, the girls are in charge.
0:05:55 > 0:05:57And Mum won't be getting off lightly either.
0:05:57 > 0:06:00She'll be playing the part of Catherine Parr.
0:06:00 > 0:06:02Henry's sixth and final queen.
0:06:02 > 0:06:06My wedding nightmare would be a horrible, big, meringue-style dress
0:06:06 > 0:06:08with six bridesmaids.
0:06:08 > 0:06:11Forget about six bridesmaids, Catherine Parr,
0:06:11 > 0:06:13it's more like six wives.
0:06:13 > 0:06:15She's the only one that survived after his death,
0:06:15 > 0:06:17cos it's like, divorced, beheaded...
0:06:17 > 0:06:18Died.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20- ALL:- Divorced, beheaded, survived.
0:06:20 > 0:06:22You know a lot about the Tudors.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26- Good ideas. But we have got so much to organise, haven't we?- Yeah.
0:06:26 > 0:06:29Oh, well spotted, Naomi. Arggh! There's loads to do!
0:06:29 > 0:06:30- So, that's officially done.- Lovely.
0:06:30 > 0:06:33So, it's time for the girls to get on with the first task,
0:06:33 > 0:06:36finding a wedding venue fit for a king and queen.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43With the internet at their fingertips in mobile HQ,
0:06:43 > 0:06:47Claudia and Freya soon start the hunt for the perfect Tudor location.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Hi, we are enquiring about venue hire.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54'What date are you looking at?'
0:06:54 > 0:06:55The 13th.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58'Oh, I'm afraid we're not available that date, sorry.'
0:06:58 > 0:07:00OK. That's fine.
0:07:00 > 0:07:01No go with that one.
0:07:01 > 0:07:04But will they have better luck with the next place?
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- 'Hello.'- Hello, we're just enquiring
0:07:09 > 0:07:11about any vacancies at Ruthin Castle.
0:07:11 > 0:07:14- 'What dates are you looking for?' - The 13th.
0:07:14 > 0:07:17'Yeah, that shouldn't be a problem at all.'
0:07:19 > 0:07:23Ruthin Castle in North Wales seems to fit the Tudor-y template.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26And the girls have also discovered a fact about it
0:07:26 > 0:07:30that could make it even more ideal to host the big day.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34We picked this castle because it was owned by Henry VIII.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37- Henry VIII actually owned this castle?- Yeah.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40And no palace owned by a king would be complete
0:07:40 > 0:07:43without its very own feasting hall.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46Wow, this is, like, so cool.
0:07:46 > 0:07:48It looks like a room this big would be perfect for King Dad
0:07:48 > 0:07:51and Queen Mum to entertain their wedding guests.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54This is amazing.
0:07:54 > 0:07:55My mum and my dad will sit there.
0:07:55 > 0:07:57Me and Freya will sit next to my mum.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00I think you've done a great job finding it. It's really good.
0:08:00 > 0:08:03The other great thing about the castle is that the girls
0:08:03 > 0:08:05have also spotted some inspiration
0:08:05 > 0:08:08for another important part of their wedding plans.
0:08:08 > 0:08:10So, why did you want to show me a stained-glass window?
0:08:10 > 0:08:12Cos the Tudors had them and we thought we could use them
0:08:12 > 0:08:15- for our cake. - You want a cake made out of glass?
0:08:15 > 0:08:17They're going to be edible.
0:08:17 > 0:08:19- An edible window cake?- Yeah.
0:08:19 > 0:08:20You've gone crackers.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26This place has it all, including its very own ghost.
0:08:26 > 0:08:28But I don't believe in that rubbish.
0:08:28 > 0:08:31I see you.
0:08:31 > 0:08:32Oooooh!
0:08:32 > 0:08:35Spooky Tudor venue in the bag.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43Some medieval merriment is next on the girls' list.
0:08:43 > 0:08:44Boing, boing, boing.
0:08:44 > 0:08:48They've got traditional Tudor-era entertainment in mind,
0:08:48 > 0:08:50if they can remember what it's called.
0:08:50 > 0:08:52I think we want jesting there maybe.
0:08:52 > 0:08:54It's jousting, Freya, not jesting.
0:08:54 > 0:08:56- Jousting! - THEY LAUGH
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Hang on. So, you're having knights and jousting.
0:08:58 > 0:09:02- They could just ride on two horses. - Yeah, that'd be cute.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05The girls think horses at the wedding will be cute,
0:09:05 > 0:09:07but would Mum agree?
0:09:07 > 0:09:09I have a bit of a fear of horses
0:09:09 > 0:09:11cos I'm worried that they're going to kick me.
0:09:11 > 0:09:15Oh, no. Mum isn't a fan of four-legged foals.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18The problem is - her wedding planners are determined
0:09:18 > 0:09:20- to make of this...- Yarr!
0:09:20 > 0:09:21..part of the big day.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23SHE CHUCKLES
0:09:23 > 0:09:25The girls have come to Hampton Court Castle
0:09:25 > 0:09:29to get a taste of jousting from some real Tudor experts.
0:09:30 > 0:09:34This medieval sport was a big favourite of Henry VIII.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37That's until a jousting accident meant he got so fat
0:09:37 > 0:09:39he had to be winched onto his horse.
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Henry VIII loved jousting, so we thought what we could do it
0:09:43 > 0:09:46for my mum and dad, because my mum's scared of horses.
0:09:46 > 0:09:49It looks pretty dangerous. Do you think you ought to have a go first?
0:09:49 > 0:09:51OK.
0:09:52 > 0:09:55Claudia and Freya are soon trotting down the tilt,
0:09:55 > 0:09:57taking aim at their targets.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59Steady. Get it!
0:09:59 > 0:10:00Yeah!
0:10:03 > 0:10:05Whoo!
0:10:05 > 0:10:07But does Claudia think her mum and dad
0:10:07 > 0:10:10will be as hot to trot on the big day?
0:10:10 > 0:10:14I think it would probably be a bit too much to do jousting.
0:10:14 > 0:10:15- For your mum?- Yeah.
0:10:15 > 0:10:18You think it might be just asking that little bit too much of her?
0:10:18 > 0:10:19- Yeah.- So, what are we going to do?
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Well, we could probably use it as transport instead.
0:10:22 > 0:10:23For the grand entrance.
0:10:23 > 0:10:28So, maybe not entertainment, but that could be transport sorted.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29Good thinking, girls.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33These horses would be a great Tudor way to get to the wedding.
0:10:33 > 0:10:35Transport for the big day...
0:10:35 > 0:10:36"Neigh" problem.
0:10:40 > 0:10:43Back in mobile HQ and the girls are sketching out the design
0:10:43 > 0:10:46for their edible stained-glass window cake.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Maybe they could be, like, sat on, like, horses.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51Yeah, there could be horses in the picture.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54Sounds like they've already got a plan in mind.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58The challenge now is to figure out how to turn it into a reality.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03So, they brought me to a glass museum to see if they can use
0:11:03 > 0:11:06the equipment here to take their idea to the next level.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08How are you going to make edible stained-glass?
0:11:08 > 0:11:10BOTH: With these!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12Ah! Boiled sweets.
0:11:12 > 0:11:13Go on, give me one.
0:11:16 > 0:11:18Claudia and Freya think they've come up with
0:11:18 > 0:11:21a sweet solution for making edible glass,
0:11:21 > 0:11:23but will it work?
0:11:23 > 0:11:25Their plan is to melt down these beauties.
0:11:25 > 0:11:26And here at the Museum,
0:11:26 > 0:11:29they've got something that should liquefy them fast.
0:11:29 > 0:11:31This is the kiln they use to melt glass.
0:11:31 > 0:11:35Let's see how it does with boiled sweets.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37The heat from this kiln will hopefully melt them down
0:11:37 > 0:11:40into a window-shaped plate.
0:11:40 > 0:11:42Fingers crossed, everyone. Here we go.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44I think this could be a world first, you know.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46That's really actually kind of cool.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Yeah? What does it look like against the light?
0:11:49 > 0:11:51Oh, that looks amazing!
0:11:51 > 0:11:53How would we get, like, my mum and dad in it though?
0:11:53 > 0:11:57Oh, you want to actually have your mum and dad in the window?
0:11:57 > 0:11:58- Yeah.- Yeah.- Hm.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02- I don't know. Do you think we're on the right track anyway?- Yeah.
0:12:02 > 0:12:04Can I eat it?
0:12:04 > 0:12:06Well, technically it's edible,
0:12:06 > 0:12:09I think for health and safety reasons, I can't let you eat it.
0:12:10 > 0:12:12- HE LAUGHS - The window's mine! It's all mine!
0:12:12 > 0:12:14I'm eating a window!
0:12:14 > 0:12:18The girls have got their edible glass idea well and truly licked.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20It might need a cake maker to help them out,
0:12:20 > 0:12:22but it looks like they've smashed it.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29So, girls, you have brought me back out into the great outdoors.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31What is this all about?
0:12:31 > 0:12:34- Well, Henry VIII loved his birds. - He loved them.- Did he?
0:12:34 > 0:12:37Oh, what, things like doves for weddings?
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- Yeah, that would be lovely and romantic.- Uh, no.
0:12:40 > 0:12:41Something slightly bigger.
0:12:43 > 0:12:45Hold on a minute.
0:12:46 > 0:12:47That's not a dove.
0:12:49 > 0:12:51Doves? Ha!
0:12:51 > 0:12:54The Tudors were serious fans of birds of prey,
0:12:54 > 0:12:58like this lethal Harris hawk who eats doves for breakfast.
0:12:58 > 0:13:00Only joking.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04Tudors really, really liked their birds and used them
0:13:04 > 0:13:05for hunting and entertainment.
0:13:05 > 0:13:09- So, we're going to use that. - As your entertainment?- Yeah.- Great.
0:13:11 > 0:13:15So, who's willing to have her land on your hand?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- I will.- Yeah?- Yeah.
0:13:17 > 0:13:21Claudia is about to get a taste of how Henry VIII liked to relax.
0:13:21 > 0:13:23Right, get that glove on.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25'The king often went hunting with his friends
0:13:25 > 0:13:29'to get away from the gossip and politics of his royal court.'
0:13:29 > 0:13:31Does she like to eat wedding planners?
0:13:31 > 0:13:32She's never tried one.
0:13:32 > 0:13:34SHE CHUCKLES
0:13:34 > 0:13:36Here she comes. Here she comes.
0:13:39 > 0:13:41Yay!
0:13:41 > 0:13:44- How did that feel?- Very cool.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48Claudia doesn't sound that convinced,
0:13:48 > 0:13:51but will our 21st-century king and queen find getting hold
0:13:51 > 0:13:55of one of these things as appealing as Henry VIII did?
0:13:55 > 0:13:57How will Mum and Dad handle this?
0:13:57 > 0:13:59I think they'll be fine with it, actually.
0:14:00 > 0:14:03But birds of prey are only just the beginning
0:14:03 > 0:14:04of the girls' entertainment plans.
0:14:04 > 0:14:07Maybe they have to jump over, like, a big puddle.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10They're still keen to keep jousting in the wedding
0:14:10 > 0:14:12and are working on a top-secret plan.
0:14:13 > 0:14:17We'll give you a clue, you'll laugh your head off when you see it.
0:14:17 > 0:14:19It's hush-hush until the main event.
0:14:19 > 0:14:22But they'll be using a feathered friend to kick it all off.
0:14:22 > 0:14:25Wedding entertainment, starting to take flight.
0:14:30 > 0:14:32OK. So, Mum's going to be Catherine Parr
0:14:32 > 0:14:35and Dad's going to be Henry VIII.
0:14:35 > 0:14:37Dad's outfit is already sorted.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39As he's playing Henry VIII,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42it's a fat suit and a stick-on ginger beard for him.
0:14:42 > 0:14:45But don't worry, Mum, the girls haven't forgotten about you.
0:14:45 > 0:14:48The costume your mum's going to have...
0:14:48 > 0:14:50- The red one?- The red crimson dress.
0:14:52 > 0:14:54The girls want a red dress for Mum.
0:14:54 > 0:14:56So, it's off to check out some Tudor threads
0:14:56 > 0:15:00to find something fit for a queen.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03No luck so far. I think they need some professional help.
0:15:03 > 0:15:05- Ah!- Oh, my God!- Ed!
0:15:05 > 0:15:09You, professional? Yeah, right.
0:15:09 > 0:15:11What are you looking for, for your mum, exactly?
0:15:11 > 0:15:14- What kind of colour?- Like, a red, crimson-type thing.- Yeah, red.
0:15:14 > 0:15:16- Like this?- Not really.
0:15:16 > 0:15:19- Not really the right design for it. - Oh, OK. I thought it was nice.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21Aw! It's just your colour, Ed.
0:15:21 > 0:15:22Have you seen this one?
0:15:24 > 0:15:26That's nice, yeah.
0:15:26 > 0:15:27With Mum's outfit sorted,
0:15:27 > 0:15:31now Claudia and Freya are switching their attention to me.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33- It looks a bit like a woman's hat to me.- No, it's not.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36- Everybody's wearing them. - Are they? Well, I'm not.
0:15:36 > 0:15:39- They're the latest fashion. - You look lovely!
0:15:39 > 0:15:41It's a woman's hat!
0:15:41 > 0:15:43Please don't dress me as a woman.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45I'm always getting dressed as a woman.
0:15:45 > 0:15:48Come on, Ed, you look lovely wearing that.
0:15:48 > 0:15:50This is more my style.
0:15:50 > 0:15:52Matches my muscles.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54It really doesn't, you potbellied pig.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56It's not a potbelly, it's muscle.
0:15:56 > 0:15:57Helmet, please.
0:16:00 > 0:16:05Oh, I see. Ha-ha(!) Outfit most certainly not sorted.
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Oh, I don't know about that, Ed.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10You always play the part of the fool so well.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12Oi, you, watch it!
0:16:17 > 0:16:21The royal arrangements for this Tudor wedding are almost complete.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24From a venue fit for a king...
0:16:24 > 0:16:26- Henry VIII actually owned this castle?- Yeah.
0:16:26 > 0:16:29To transport that might just turn the queen green.
0:16:29 > 0:16:32I have a bit of a fear of horses.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34The girls have worked flat-out in just four weeks
0:16:34 > 0:16:37to make their plans into reality.
0:16:37 > 0:16:39Oh, that looks amazing.
0:16:39 > 0:16:40And to top it off,
0:16:40 > 0:16:42they've hatched a musical plan
0:16:42 > 0:16:44for a wonderful wedding finale.
0:16:44 > 0:16:47# Shake it off, shake it off
0:16:47 > 0:16:50# Shake it off, shake it off. #
0:16:50 > 0:16:54They want to put a Tudor spin on a Taylor Swift classic.
0:16:54 > 0:16:57So they're booking a medieval band.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01HE PLAYS LUTE
0:17:01 > 0:17:02BOTH: I think that's really good.
0:17:02 > 0:17:05Oh, good. Thank you. I'm glad you like it.
0:17:05 > 0:17:08Uh... This might need some work.
0:17:08 > 0:17:12But with all this secret Tudor planning being executed,
0:17:12 > 0:17:14Mum and Dad are starting to lose their heads.
0:17:14 > 0:17:16- What's the theme?- No comment.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- How are we getting there? - No comment.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20- What are we wearing?- No comment.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22You're just being unfair now.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26Nicely done, Princess Claudia. Not long to go now.
0:17:26 > 0:17:28The wedding is very soon.
0:17:28 > 0:17:30It's the day after tomorrow.
0:17:30 > 0:17:31It's actually making me
0:17:31 > 0:17:32feel really nervous.
0:17:34 > 0:17:38Finally, the day has arrived and wouldn't it be great
0:17:38 > 0:17:41if there just happened to be to wandering Tudor minstrels
0:17:41 > 0:17:44on hand to document the celebrations?
0:17:44 > 0:17:46Funny you should mention that, Naomi.
0:18:09 > 0:18:11Let's hope they definitely don't hate Tudors,
0:18:11 > 0:18:13cos it's a bit late now.
0:18:13 > 0:18:14In fact, over in the feasting hall,
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Claudia and Freya have started getting ready.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19So, it looks like there's no going back.
0:18:21 > 0:18:24Meanwhile, if Dad's going to be Henry VIII at this wedding,
0:18:24 > 0:18:27then he needs to get into his fat suit.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28OK, there. Lovely.
0:18:28 > 0:18:30This feels so weird.
0:18:30 > 0:18:35I'm just used to being in total control and now I feel helpless.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38And there's definitely no stopping the wedding minstrels.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57Back in the castle,
0:18:57 > 0:19:00we've got two Tudor maidens who can't wait to kick this big day off.
0:19:02 > 0:19:05And as Henry and his bride Catherine Parr are ushered into
0:19:05 > 0:19:08our Royal Chambers, let's see whether this wedding
0:19:08 > 0:19:10is set to be a Tudor triumph...
0:19:10 > 0:19:13Or end with the girls being stuck in the stocks.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15That is perfect. Lovely.
0:19:15 > 0:19:17All right, Mum and Dad, how are you feeling?
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Terrified, actually.
0:19:19 > 0:19:22Are you ready to see what you're wearing today?
0:19:23 > 0:19:26One, two, three!
0:19:27 > 0:19:29Wow!
0:19:29 > 0:19:32THEY ALL LAUGH
0:19:32 > 0:19:36- I've put weight on!- Oh, my God!
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Yeah, sorry about that.
0:19:38 > 0:19:39Wow!
0:19:39 > 0:19:42- Is it Henry VIII?- Yes!
0:19:42 > 0:19:45- Who are you?- Catherine Parr, the very last one.- Oh!
0:19:45 > 0:19:48- The last one, yeah.- My lady.
0:19:49 > 0:19:52So, can you guess the whole theme of your wedding day?
0:19:52 > 0:19:54Tudor-themed maybe?
0:19:54 > 0:19:56THEY CHEER
0:19:57 > 0:19:59Your dad looks amazing.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Wait.- How am I meant to do that?
0:20:03 > 0:20:04That felt so weird.
0:20:04 > 0:20:08The wedding theme and the outfits are both hits.
0:20:08 > 0:20:10Oh, talking of hits, let's have another song.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Well, we're about to find out exactly what Mum will do
0:20:41 > 0:20:45when she spots her nightmare idea of wedding day transport.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48This could go either "neigh".
0:20:48 > 0:20:51I have a bit of a fear of horses because I'm worried that
0:20:51 > 0:20:52they're going to kick me.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Ah! It looks like your transport might have arrived.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59Oh, no! Wow! That is astonishing!
0:20:59 > 0:21:03- Are you going to be all right to get on a horse?- Absolutely.
0:21:03 > 0:21:05- Are you going to do it? - Of course I am!
0:21:05 > 0:21:07- ALL:- Whoo!
0:21:07 > 0:21:09Mum's talking a good game so far,
0:21:09 > 0:21:11but will she actually get up on that horse?
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Yes, well done.
0:21:13 > 0:21:16- SHE LAUGHS - The dress is all caught!
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Well done, my lady!
0:21:17 > 0:21:20- My dress is all caught up.- Bye!
0:21:20 > 0:21:23- Goodbye.- Good luck on your wedding.
0:21:23 > 0:21:24See you there!
0:21:24 > 0:21:26And she's away.
0:21:26 > 0:21:29Mum has bravely overcome her fear of horses
0:21:29 > 0:21:32and is off to her wedding Tudor-style.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35It's not as bad as I expected.
0:21:35 > 0:21:36It's a bit wobbly.
0:21:36 > 0:21:39And the king and queen are about to get another surprise,
0:21:39 > 0:21:43their wedding guests have arrived ready to cheer their rulers,
0:21:43 > 0:21:45dressed in their own medieval costumes.
0:21:45 > 0:21:51My lords, ladies and gentlemen, 'tis the king and his wife to be!
0:21:51 > 0:21:54THEY ALL CHEER
0:22:00 > 0:22:02With Henry and Catherine safely dismounted,
0:22:02 > 0:22:05the girls' wedding entertainment is next.
0:22:05 > 0:22:10As their Harris hawk is elsewhere, on important hawk business,
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Claudia and Freya have lined up an owl instead,
0:22:12 > 0:22:15to deliver some important news to the king.
0:22:23 > 0:22:24Your Majesty,
0:22:24 > 0:22:26there's a message attached.
0:22:26 > 0:22:27What does it say?
0:22:27 > 0:22:30"Henry, you old rogue,
0:22:30 > 0:22:33"I can't believe you're getting married without us.
0:22:33 > 0:22:36"We challenge Mum to a joust.
0:22:36 > 0:22:38"Signed...
0:22:38 > 0:22:40"your other five wives!"
0:22:43 > 0:22:46Claudia and Freya have arranged a grudge match between Mum
0:22:46 > 0:22:48and Henry's other wives.
0:22:48 > 0:22:51We knew the girls would get jousting in there somehow.
0:22:51 > 0:22:54The plan is that Queen Catherine, AKA Mum,
0:22:54 > 0:22:58must compete for Henry's hand in marriage against this angry lot,
0:22:58 > 0:23:00all played by their wedding guests.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03It's a race to the dark knight at the end of the course,
0:23:03 > 0:23:06with the winner getting to marry Dad.
0:23:06 > 0:23:07No pressure, Mum.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10Wives, one, two, three, four, five and six.
0:23:10 > 0:23:14On your marks, get set, go!
0:23:14 > 0:23:16And they're off!
0:23:16 > 0:23:19Wife number six, Catherine Parr may have lost her hat,
0:23:19 > 0:23:22but she's lost her rivals too, as the Spanish Armada
0:23:22 > 0:23:25block the others and she sails into an early lead.
0:23:28 > 0:23:31After avoiding angry peasants throwing rotten veg,
0:23:31 > 0:23:34the next challenge is to see if Catherine can skilfully
0:23:34 > 0:23:36lance her medieval doughnut.
0:23:36 > 0:23:40She can! She's another step closer to her king.
0:23:40 > 0:23:41But Anne of Cleves,
0:23:41 > 0:23:45riding her Flanders Mare is still in angry pursuit.
0:23:45 > 0:23:49Just the nasty knight to take on now.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52But what's this? Has Catherine fallen at the final hurdle?
0:23:52 > 0:23:56She has! But the good news is she's fallen over the winning line.
0:23:56 > 0:23:59Champion!
0:23:59 > 0:24:02'Phew! Good job Mum won. That could have been a bit awkward.'
0:24:02 > 0:24:05Well done, fair wench.
0:24:05 > 0:24:08Oh, how fantastic. You get to marry your king.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10- Yeah!- Yeah!
0:24:34 > 0:24:37So, after a quick change following her jousting escapades,
0:24:37 > 0:24:41Claudia's mum and dad are ready to tie the knot.
0:24:41 > 0:24:44I call upon these persons here present to witness
0:24:44 > 0:24:47that I do take thee to be my lawful wedded wife.
0:24:47 > 0:24:50I give you this ring as a token of our marriage.
0:24:50 > 0:24:54It now gives me great pleasure to pronounce you husband and wife.
0:25:01 > 0:25:05Finally, Mum and Dad are officially Mr and Mrs Mum and Dad.
0:25:05 > 0:25:09And now they're married, it's time to party with their loyal subjects.
0:25:09 > 0:25:13My lords, ladies and gentlemen. Please welcome...
0:25:13 > 0:25:17Your new king and queen!
0:25:17 > 0:25:20FANFARE PLAYS
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Feast!
0:25:30 > 0:25:33But the day isn't over yet, as the Tudor wedding party
0:25:33 > 0:25:37gorge themselves, the girls are ready with dessert.
0:25:37 > 0:25:41Their totally unique stained-glass window cake.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Here we go.
0:25:43 > 0:25:45- ALL:- Wow!
0:25:45 > 0:25:47- Amazing!- That is amazing!
0:25:50 > 0:25:52- CLAUDIA:- The best bit is, the glass is edible.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54So, in a minute, we're going to cut you out
0:25:54 > 0:25:57- and you can have your own person. - Can I bite his head off?
0:25:57 > 0:26:00- DAD:- One, two, three...
0:26:00 > 0:26:02THEY ALL LAUGH
0:26:02 > 0:26:04- Oh, no!- I got them both.
0:26:04 > 0:26:06As the guests tuck into the girls' cake,
0:26:06 > 0:26:09Claudia and Freya have one more surprise up their sleeves...
0:26:09 > 0:26:11A musical finale to end the day.
0:26:13 > 0:26:14But this is no ordinary song.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17With the help of the medieval band they booked,
0:26:17 > 0:26:19the girls are putting a unique Tudor spin
0:26:19 > 0:26:21on Taylor Swift's megahit Shake It Off.
0:26:25 > 0:26:28As the wedding party starts to shake its Tudor stuff,
0:26:28 > 0:26:32let's find out whether this big day has won the royal seal of approval.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35The wedding has been amazing and I wouldn't swap it
0:26:35 > 0:26:37with anybody else's wedding in the world.
0:26:37 > 0:26:38It's just been brilliant.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44It went like how it was supposed to and it was so unique and amazing.
0:26:45 > 0:26:48They seem really happy all the time and joyful.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50They finally got to tie the knot.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54Claudia and Freya, I think you've done a fantastic job,
0:26:54 > 0:26:57and we'll remember it for the rest of our lives.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00- This wedding was... - Incredible, amazing and crazy...
0:27:00 > 0:27:02And just, overall, the best.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14Hey, what a wedding!
0:27:14 > 0:27:17Yeah, I think we should tell future generations in song.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19Oh, yes. One, two, three...
0:27:21 > 0:27:23You two, off to the dungeon!
0:27:23 > 0:27:25What for?
0:27:25 > 0:27:26Crimes against music.
0:27:28 > 0:27:29Be gone!
0:27:50 > 0:27:52THEY WHIMPER
