0:01:21 > 0:01:23Now, today I'm in Yorkshire to meet a brother and sister
0:01:23 > 0:01:26whose mum totally embarrasses them.
0:01:26 > 0:01:29They say she dresses like a teenager and looks way too fake.
0:01:29 > 0:01:31They want to give her a make-UNDER
0:01:31 > 0:01:35and transform her to what they believe a mum should look like.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39Meet this week's project managers,
0:01:39 > 0:01:4213-year-old Josh and 12-year-old Kati.
0:01:42 > 0:01:45Their mum is 33-year-old Mel.
0:01:45 > 0:01:49Mum embarrasses us because she wears teenager-style clothes.
0:01:49 > 0:01:51Her clothes can be over the top.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54She wears this Lady Gaga-style dress.
0:01:54 > 0:01:55It's horrendous.
0:01:55 > 0:01:58It's really embarrassing when she wears it.
0:01:58 > 0:02:01She's, like, "Mum, you know, you dress like a teenager.
0:02:01 > 0:02:03"You're 33 - you can't be dressing like that."
0:02:03 > 0:02:07She has fake hair extensions, fake nails,
0:02:07 > 0:02:10fake lashes. Sometimes she even wears fake toenails!
0:02:10 > 0:02:14Mel's passion for fashion means she is retail queen.
0:02:14 > 0:02:16My mum and shopping are...
0:02:16 > 0:02:18- ..best friends.- Yeah.
0:02:18 > 0:02:21Shopping has to be absolutely my favourite pastime.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24- It's horrible!- It's an obsession, I think, now.
0:02:24 > 0:02:27My mum's got three wardrobes packed full of stuff.
0:02:27 > 0:02:31Enough clothing to clothe a little town or village in Africa.
0:02:31 > 0:02:32Help me!
0:02:32 > 0:02:36Mum's taste in men also comes down to appearances.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39Looks are really important to my mum,
0:02:39 > 0:02:42but I think there's other qualities that she needs to look at.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Personality, sense of humour and brains.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Our ideal man for our mum would have...
0:02:48 > 0:02:49Jimmy Carr's eyes.
0:02:49 > 0:02:52- Minty's nose. - Stephen Hawking's brain.
0:02:52 > 0:02:53Ricky Gervais's laugh.
0:02:57 > 0:03:00I feel extremely scared about putting the kids in control.
0:03:00 > 0:03:03I think she just needs to go for a more natural look.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06Without all of the fake stuff, she'll look beautiful.
0:03:06 > 0:03:09We have a very different assignment on our hands this week.
0:03:09 > 0:03:14Luckily, I've help in the dashing form of style guru Darren Kennedy.
0:03:14 > 0:03:18Darren's a top stylist who knows how to make a lady look her very best.
0:03:18 > 0:03:23If anyone can stop Mum's obsession with dressing like a teen, it's him.
0:03:25 > 0:03:27- Hi!- Hello!- How you doing?
0:03:28 > 0:03:32- This is our mum.- Hi, Mel. Lovely to meet you.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35- We've heard so much about you. - All good, I hope!
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Well...! But you guys gave us the call. We came as fast as we could.
0:03:38 > 0:03:42- What's the problem?- Look at her! She's embarrassing us. Look at that!
0:03:42 > 0:03:44She dresses like a teenager.
0:03:44 > 0:03:45Right, guys, I want to get stuck in,
0:03:45 > 0:03:49but it's not one, not two, but THREE wardrobes?!
0:03:49 > 0:03:52- We've got a lot of work. Do you want to show me the crime scene?- Yeah.
0:03:52 > 0:03:55Mel...we need to have a little chat.
0:03:58 > 0:04:00So here's all our mum's clothes.
0:04:00 > 0:04:02Wowzers!
0:04:02 > 0:04:05- She really does have a lot of clothes, doesn't she?- A lot.
0:04:05 > 0:04:06This is ridiculous!
0:04:06 > 0:04:07Look how short that is!
0:04:07 > 0:04:10That's even too short for YOU, Kati.
0:04:10 > 0:04:13Your mum's wearing a ra-ra leopard-print skirt.
0:04:13 > 0:04:16- How do you feel about her clothes? - It's a bit embarrassing,
0:04:16 > 0:04:18because she's not a teenager.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20I think she should be a bit more mumsy.
0:04:20 > 0:04:24Mel, when I see you, I just see a young, funky, beautiful mum.
0:04:24 > 0:04:27I'd like to think exactly what you've just said.
0:04:27 > 0:04:29But the kids seem to disagree.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31- Now, what's the worst offender for you?- Er...
0:04:31 > 0:04:34I think it's over here. It's another Lady Gaga dress.
0:04:34 > 0:04:35It's shocking!
0:04:35 > 0:04:40I mean, this dress isn't appropriate for anyone other than Lady Gaga!
0:04:40 > 0:04:42- # Gaga, oh-la-la. # - I'm unique!
0:04:42 > 0:04:46Honestly, Mel, how do you feel about Josh and Kati taking over?
0:04:46 > 0:04:48Terrified. Absolutely terrified.
0:04:48 > 0:04:51What have you guys got in mind? What would you like to see her wear?
0:04:51 > 0:04:53Longer skirts and dresses,
0:04:53 > 0:04:56blouses, cardigan, flat shoes.
0:04:56 > 0:05:00I want her to get rid of the fake tan, fake nails,
0:05:00 > 0:05:04fake toenails, fake eyelashes and hair extensions
0:05:04 > 0:05:06and everything else fake.
0:05:06 > 0:05:08Sounds good to me!
0:05:08 > 0:05:11What sort of man do you like? What... What attracts you?
0:05:11 > 0:05:13Looks, initially.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Fashion - somebody that dresses well. That's an absolute.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Is there anyone, then, that you think, you know,
0:05:18 > 0:05:21"We like the look of them. It'd be nice if Mum had a touch of that."
0:05:21 > 0:05:23Anyone out there?
0:05:23 > 0:05:26- Cheryl Cole.- High five! I love Cheryl Cole.
0:05:26 > 0:05:28Who'd be your ideal celebrity man?
0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Peter Andre.- REALLY?!
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Love him.
0:05:31 > 0:05:32G'day, Sheila.
0:05:32 > 0:05:34He's got the whole look. Everything.
0:05:34 > 0:05:37Plus the fact that he's a single dad, as well.
0:05:37 > 0:05:39It's obviously an appeal. He's very sweet.
0:05:39 > 0:05:41Guys, we've got a huge task on our hands
0:05:41 > 0:05:43if we're going to make your mam under
0:05:43 > 0:05:47and bring out her natural beauty. You up to being project managers?
0:05:47 > 0:05:48BOTH: Yes!
0:05:48 > 0:05:51Your first task today is to choose THE most hideous item
0:05:51 > 0:05:52and we're going to bin it.
0:05:54 > 0:05:58- Hey!- There it is.- Do you agree with his choice?- Yes!- Mel!
0:05:58 > 0:05:59- Hello.- Hi.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02Dress looks a bit familiar, doesn't it?
0:06:02 > 0:06:05- This is horrible. - And...it's going in the bin.
0:06:05 > 0:06:09No! That's my favourite dress. You can't do that!
0:06:09 > 0:06:10- Yeah!- High five.
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Aren't they a lovely family?
0:06:15 > 0:06:17Gorgeous, all of them. I love them all.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20But I'm confused because I think she's young, funky and cool.
0:06:20 > 0:06:23I'd love a mum like that, so why are they embarrassed?
0:06:23 > 0:06:25I can understand why they're embarrassed.
0:06:25 > 0:06:27I think she's just a little bit too fashion-led.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30We need to teach her how to dress for HER and feel good,
0:06:30 > 0:06:34- so it's not trend-led. - And she's looking for Peter Andre!
0:06:34 > 0:06:36- HE CHUCKLES - We'd better get to work!
0:06:38 > 0:06:41The first step is for Josh and Kati to find the perfect gent.
0:06:41 > 0:06:43This is where the task begins -
0:06:43 > 0:06:47in our state-of-the-art Project Parent surveillance van,
0:06:47 > 0:06:49packed with the latest gadgets,
0:06:49 > 0:06:52multi-screens and fantastic satellite dish.
0:06:52 > 0:06:54It's also rigged up with camera, microphones
0:06:54 > 0:06:58and a big red buzzer to cut them off if they give rubbish answers.
0:06:58 > 0:07:03So it's the perfect place to interrogate the candidates.
0:07:03 > 0:07:09Josh and Kati meet the men, but they do have an assistant.
0:07:09 > 0:07:12We've got some really tough questions for them
0:07:12 > 0:07:15- and I hope they're ready.- Yeah.
0:07:17 > 0:07:23We searched for the perfect match for mum and found three candidates.
0:07:23 > 0:07:26Josh and Kati want someone to make mum laugh
0:07:26 > 0:07:31so we found Carl who loves to play the clown and do impersonations.
0:07:31 > 0:07:37The kids want brains, so we have Peter, a whizz at brainteasers.
0:07:37 > 0:07:40They also want someone with a strong personality,
0:07:40 > 0:07:44so there's Greg who likes to be the centre of attention.
0:07:44 > 0:07:49If the children aren't happy with these, we have another option,
0:07:49 > 0:07:51Mel's good friend, Monique.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53How are you feeling?
0:07:53 > 0:07:57- Excited.- Really excited. - What are you looking for?
0:07:57 > 0:08:01Funny, good personality, stuff like that.
0:08:01 > 0:08:04- It's not all about looks.- OK.
0:08:04 > 0:08:08- First to take the hot seat is Carl. - Hi.
0:08:08 > 0:08:09Hello.
0:08:09 > 0:08:10We want a gentleman.
0:08:10 > 0:08:14How long would you wait for a lady clothes shopping -
0:08:14 > 0:08:17one hour, two hours or five hours?
0:08:17 > 0:08:19I would wait five hours.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21He's an absolute liar.
0:08:21 > 0:08:24- You can so tell.- He's lying.
0:08:24 > 0:08:27We want someone funny. Make us laugh.
0:08:27 > 0:08:30I'm Barney, hello!
0:08:31 > 0:08:33DOES SCOOBY-DOO IMPRESSION
0:08:37 > 0:08:42My mum worships Peter Andre. Do an impression of him singing.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45# Woah, woah, woah
0:08:45 > 0:08:50# Mysterious girl I wanna get close to you... #
0:08:50 > 0:08:52Ooh!
0:08:52 > 0:08:56My mum hates caviar but we want her to be more sophisticated.
0:08:56 > 0:08:58Make a canape and eat it.
0:08:59 > 0:09:05- Do you like caviar?- No. Not at all. - Put it all in your mouth.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Oh!
0:09:08 > 0:09:09BURPING
0:09:10 > 0:09:12- What does it taste like?- Fishy.
0:09:12 > 0:09:16- Eurgh!- That is all. Bye-bye.
0:09:18 > 0:09:23Five hours waiting outside a shop. He's never even seen the woman.
0:09:23 > 0:09:30- He's trying to impress you. - That's the problem.- I enjoyed it.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33Next to take the hot seat is Peter.
0:09:34 > 0:09:38My mum is a bit rubbish at maths and we want someone that's brainy.
0:09:38 > 0:09:43- 15 seconds to work this out.- Go. - 50 x 5 ¸ 10 - 8. Go.
0:09:44 > 0:09:48Minus 10? Plus 10 - 8?
0:09:48 > 0:09:53Five, four, three, two, one.
0:09:53 > 0:09:57- 17.- Well done.- Well done. - Thank you.
0:09:57 > 0:10:02Mum worships Peter Andre. Do an impression of him singing.
0:10:03 > 0:10:08# Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Mysterious girl
0:10:08 > 0:10:11# I wanna get close to you... #
0:10:11 > 0:10:14- Well done.- Do you actually have that six pack?
0:10:14 > 0:10:20I've got a two pack at the moment. Thank you.
0:10:20 > 0:10:24Mum hates caviar, but we want her to be more sophisticated.
0:10:24 > 0:10:27Make a canape and eat it.
0:10:27 > 0:10:30- I don't really like caviar, but... - Pile it on.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Oh, thank you.
0:10:33 > 0:10:36Oh, my word.
0:10:36 > 0:10:40- I don't think he likes it. - JOSH LAUGHS
0:10:41 > 0:10:43- Well done, that is all.- Thank you.
0:10:43 > 0:10:48- What are you thinking? - Really good at maths.- He was.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51I hope the kids liked me, it wasn't too bad.
0:10:51 > 0:10:56- I had a thoroughly good time. - The final contender is Greg.
0:10:56 > 0:11:02- Hi, what's your name?- My name's Greg. - I'm Josh.- Hi.- I'm Kati.- Hi.
0:11:02 > 0:11:04Tell us your best joke.
0:11:04 > 0:11:07What do you call a three-legged donkey?
0:11:07 > 0:11:11- I've heard this.- Let's hear it then, what's the answer?
0:11:11 > 0:11:14- Er...what is the answer? - You don't know the answer.
0:11:14 > 0:11:19- It's that bad, I've forgotten. - There you go! A wonky.
0:11:19 > 0:11:20Let's hear yours then.
0:11:20 > 0:11:25- I'm the one asking the questions. - No, you can't do that!
0:11:25 > 0:11:30My mum worships Peter Andre. Do an impression of him singing.
0:11:30 > 0:11:35# Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Mysterious girl
0:11:35 > 0:11:38# I wanna get close to you... #
0:11:38 > 0:11:41He's rubbish.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44- BUZZER - Thank you.
0:11:44 > 0:11:48- Do your best impersonation.- I used to play for Manchester United.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53I used to cross the ball in for Wayne before I moved to America.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56- David Beckham.- Oh! See, I'm awesome.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58Better than Peter Kay or Lee Evans.
0:11:58 > 0:12:02- I'll take that as a compliment.- OK.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06- That is all.- Thank you, Kati, thank you, Josh.- You were good.
0:12:06 > 0:12:11Josh and Kati asked some wicked questions and it made me think.
0:12:13 > 0:12:17- Did you enjoy that?- Yeah.- Yeah. - You've met all the guys.
0:12:17 > 0:12:20Tell me what you liked. Start with Carl.
0:12:20 > 0:12:23- I'm Barney! - He was funny and honest.
0:12:23 > 0:12:26He made us laugh a lot.
0:12:26 > 0:12:31- What about Peter?- He was nice, but...- I didn't feel the vibe.
0:12:31 > 0:12:33There wasn't a connection.
0:12:33 > 0:12:37- Finally, Greg, you were having some banter.- I got you!
0:12:37 > 0:12:41- The way he said our names after... - You liked that.- Yeah.
0:12:41 > 0:12:47- It felt like we knew each other. - Thank you, Kati and Josh.
0:12:47 > 0:12:49And we still have Monique.
0:12:49 > 0:12:53So have you guys definitely decided who's going home?
0:12:53 > 0:12:57- Yeah.- You sure.- Yeah. - Positive.- Yes!
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Tell me who it is.
0:12:59 > 0:13:02It's this one, Peter.
0:13:02 > 0:13:04- Bye-bye.- Bye.- See you later.
0:13:04 > 0:13:07Am I disappointed? A little.
0:13:07 > 0:13:10But somebody has to go first and it's me.
0:13:10 > 0:13:12Bad luck, mate.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16So, that's one down and three to go.
0:13:16 > 0:13:20We've lined up a posh treat for Mel at a stately home.
0:13:20 > 0:13:23Who will Josh and Kati pick to accompany her?
0:13:23 > 0:13:26And what's she going to wear?
0:13:28 > 0:13:33Josh and Kati want to stop their mum dressing like a teenager
0:13:33 > 0:13:36and have asked me to dress her more as a mum.
0:13:36 > 0:13:40We're not going near Mel's bargain high street shops.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44We've brought her to an upmarket department store.
0:13:44 > 0:13:47Guys, we're going to split up, do some shopping.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51Mel, pick up some stuff that you like.
0:13:51 > 0:13:55- But we have one rule. - No short skirts.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58And nothing Lady Gaga.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01- OK, how short's short? - Just short.
0:14:01 > 0:14:03- This is not short!- Yes, it is.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07Use that as your baseline. Try and hit the knee.
0:14:07 > 0:14:10Josh, Kati, this way. See you later.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18- Found them. How about this one? - Why do you like this, Josh?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20Because it's granny and frumpy.
0:14:20 > 0:14:23- Is that granny enough for you? - Yeah.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Granny chic, isn't it?
0:14:25 > 0:14:27- What about this?- Interesting.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31They've gone a bit too frumpy at this stage.
0:14:31 > 0:14:36They're forgetting that their mum is a young woman.
0:14:36 > 0:14:38I like this.
0:14:38 > 0:14:43Why did this catch your eye? It's not too teenage and not granny.
0:14:43 > 0:14:45- It's in the middle.- Yeah.
0:14:46 > 0:14:50- I think that colour is amazing. - Sophisticated.
0:14:50 > 0:14:51It is, isn't it?
0:14:51 > 0:14:55# Oops, I did it again... #
0:14:55 > 0:15:00Mel has sneaked off to her comfort zone - teen fashions.
0:15:00 > 0:15:03She seems to have forgotten the rules.
0:15:03 > 0:15:06I've tried to stick to the rules, but it's so hard.
0:15:06 > 0:15:11They're a bit above knee, I think.
0:15:12 > 0:15:14- Hey.- Here she is.
0:15:14 > 0:15:18- Come on over. How did you get on? - Brilliant.
0:15:18 > 0:15:22- Loads of dresses. Not too short. - What do you mean?!
0:15:22 > 0:15:26- JOSH: That's short. - That's even short on Kati.
0:15:26 > 0:15:29I've had enough. Give me all this.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33- Pop yourself in there. We're going to get you changed.- OK.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36Some people just don't listen, do they?
0:15:36 > 0:15:41It's time to see if any of Josh and Kati's choices
0:15:41 > 0:15:46will turn Mel into the mumsy mum they hope for.
0:15:46 > 0:15:50Three, two, one. Come on out.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57Well, what do we think?
0:15:57 > 0:16:01- The look has gone a bit too granny. - Nowt wrong with that.
0:16:01 > 0:16:06Thumbs up, thumbs down? OK, I think that's a massive thumbs down.
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Hello, Grandma.
0:16:11 > 0:16:12- What?!- I like it.
0:16:12 > 0:16:19- Eugh! You like that!- Why don't you like it?- It's horrible.- Bleurgh!
0:16:19 > 0:16:23- I think it's beautiful. How do you feel?- Lovely.
0:16:23 > 0:16:26Completely different look, but it feels really nice.
0:16:26 > 0:16:31- It's sophisticated, it's elegant. - You're wrong in the head.
0:16:32 > 0:16:34- Wow.- Wow.
0:16:34 > 0:16:38- That's nice.- That's beautiful. You look sophisticated.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41- Wow.- Wow.
0:16:41 > 0:16:45- That's nicer.- How do you feel? Normally you're legs, leg, legs!
0:16:45 > 0:16:48- It feels nice.- I like it.
0:16:48 > 0:16:50Oh, wow!
0:16:50 > 0:16:52- That's nice.- Nice.
0:16:52 > 0:16:57- Would you be proud to see her dressed like this?- Yes.
0:16:57 > 0:17:01The length is perfect, it hits you right on your knee.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04I feel lovely. I feel really lovely.
0:17:04 > 0:17:09After a hard day's shopping, Josh and Kati have found three outfits.
0:17:09 > 0:17:13Which will they go for on the big day? Wait and see.
0:17:13 > 0:17:19The granny outfit was funny because she looked horrific.
0:17:21 > 0:17:26Josh and Kati have chosen an ice rink to check if the candidates
0:17:26 > 0:17:28will behave like gentlemen.
0:17:28 > 0:17:34If Carl or Greg don't step up to the mark, Monique is in the mix.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40Josh and Kati will monitor it from the Project Parent van.
0:17:40 > 0:17:46- Their mum is rigged up with a secret earpiece.- Give us a signal.
0:17:46 > 0:17:50Mum must do whatever Josh and Kati say.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52- First up is Carl.- Hello.- Hiya.
0:17:52 > 0:17:57- Are you all right?- Yeah, are you? - Nice to meet you.- I'm Mel.- Carl.
0:18:00 > 0:18:04They've got ten minutes to learn a routine.
0:18:04 > 0:18:07After a demonstration from coach Sarah,
0:18:07 > 0:18:11they have to perform for Josh and Kati.
0:18:11 > 0:18:13First, time for the real test.
0:18:13 > 0:18:17Pretend you've lost your earring and see what he does.
0:18:17 > 0:18:21- I'm sure I've lost an earring. - Let's have a look.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25I keep making sure, but I've definitely lost one.
0:18:25 > 0:18:27- Very good.- We'll find it.
0:18:27 > 0:18:32- He's being very good, isn't he? - Yeah.- It's probably on the back bit.
0:18:32 > 0:18:37- Is it gold?- No, silver.- That's probably why it's a bit...
0:18:37 > 0:18:41Tell him to leave it, but thanks for the help.
0:18:41 > 0:18:46I'll probably not find it, don't worry. They were only cheap.
0:18:46 > 0:18:51- What do you think.- So far, he's passed.- Very good gentleman.
0:18:51 > 0:18:53- Thank you for looking for me. - All right.
0:18:53 > 0:18:56OK, start your routine again.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00The kids have got one more trick up their sleeves
0:19:00 > 0:19:05- to test the candidates' sense of humour.- Release the cow.- Moo!
0:19:05 > 0:19:13- Have you seen who's behind us. - A skating cow, look!
0:19:18 > 0:19:19CHEERS
0:19:19 > 0:19:22- A skating cow.- That was good.
0:19:22 > 0:19:24- See you later.- Bye.
0:19:24 > 0:19:26- You did well. Well done.- Cool.
0:19:26 > 0:19:31The cow was a bit of a surprise. But it's all fun.
0:19:31 > 0:19:36- Now it's Greg's turn.- Hiya. - How are you doing, Mel?- I'm good.
0:19:36 > 0:19:39- I got quite close there! - You're all right.
0:19:39 > 0:19:45For Greg, just remaining upright is enough of a challenge.
0:19:51 > 0:19:54GREG LAUGHS Epic fail!
0:19:54 > 0:19:56- Shall we go again?- What?!
0:19:56 > 0:20:02Sit of the floor and tighten your shoe and pretend you can't get up.
0:20:02 > 0:20:06- My right boot's playing up.- Is it?
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Clever girl.
0:20:08 > 0:20:13- This'll be nice trying to sit on the ice.- Somehow I can...
0:20:13 > 0:20:15I know there's a way you can.
0:20:15 > 0:20:17Aah!
0:20:17 > 0:20:19- Do you want me to do it? - Look at him.
0:20:19 > 0:20:21That's it.
0:20:21 > 0:20:23Oh!
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- That feels better.- Stand up. - This'll be fun.
0:20:26 > 0:20:33- He already knew what to do. - OK, I'm up, that's brilliant.
0:20:33 > 0:20:35What a gentleman.
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- Let's get to the start position. - I was going to say.
0:20:37 > 0:20:40Do the final routine now for a final time
0:20:40 > 0:20:42and then the cow's going to come.
0:20:42 > 0:20:43That's it.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46- And we've got a cow... - A spectator on the...
0:20:46 > 0:20:48Mooo!
0:20:48 > 0:20:50- We've got a cow.- Hi!
0:20:51 > 0:20:54That's a bit of a random sight to see - an ice-skating cow.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58- The cow's putting me off now.- Ha-ha!
0:20:58 > 0:20:59ANGELLICA LAUGHS
0:20:59 > 0:21:01Josh, Kati, watch this bad boy.
0:21:01 > 0:21:03We're watching.
0:21:03 > 0:21:06- Ready?- Oh-ho-ho!- Yay!
0:21:06 > 0:21:08Flukey boy!
0:21:08 > 0:21:11Well done.
0:21:11 > 0:21:13Very well done, that was good.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15- Pleased to meet you, sweetie. - Take care.- Thank you.
0:21:15 > 0:21:17- See you later.- Bye.
0:21:17 > 0:21:18- Did you enjoy that? - BOTH: Yeah!
0:21:18 > 0:21:22Hey, a skating cow, who hasn't seen one of them?
0:21:24 > 0:21:26I want you to talk me through
0:21:26 > 0:21:28how you think Carl did with your mum.
0:21:28 > 0:21:31Yeah, he was nice and stuff, he was a gentleman
0:21:31 > 0:21:32but he was just...
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- But he looked for the earring. - He was a good gentleman.
0:21:35 > 0:21:38- Right, what about Greg? - Really good.- Yeah.
0:21:38 > 0:21:41With the boot, he got down and helped her with it.
0:21:41 > 0:21:44- It were funny when he fell over. - Whoa!
0:21:44 > 0:21:47We love anyone who falls over when they skate though.
0:21:47 > 0:21:50And we still have Monique in the mix
0:21:50 > 0:21:53if any of the other two guys aren't right. Let's mix these up
0:21:53 > 0:21:57and you have to tell me who it's going to be.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00BOTH: It's going to be that one.
0:22:06 > 0:22:08It's the day of Mel's transformation
0:22:08 > 0:22:10and the team is up at the crack of dawn.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12There's so much to do.
0:22:12 > 0:22:16So, gang, we're at the part that I love the most of any make-over.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19I think for you, Mel, it's going to be really interesting
0:22:19 > 0:22:20cos it's a complete make-under.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- What do you want to do in terms of make-up?- Lose the lashes,
0:22:23 > 0:22:26less make-up, no fake tan,
0:22:26 > 0:22:28losing the nails.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Kati, in terms of hair, what do you think?
0:22:30 > 0:22:32Just more natural, her natural brown
0:22:32 > 0:22:34and get rid of the extensions.
0:22:34 > 0:22:35How are you feeling?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37Very scared.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Have one last look at yourself.
0:22:39 > 0:22:41because that's the last time you shall see yourself
0:22:41 > 0:22:44until your make-under is complete.
0:22:47 > 0:22:50As Mum's layers are peeled away,
0:22:50 > 0:22:53Josh and Kati have just got one more task...
0:22:53 > 0:22:55to let the lucky candidate know.
0:22:55 > 0:22:57Hi, it's Josh and Kati,
0:22:57 > 0:23:00I just wanted to say that we've picked you.
0:23:00 > 0:23:03You can come down to the hotel now but you've got to remember...
0:23:03 > 0:23:04Dress formally and look nice.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Mum Mel has never been a fan of the natural look
0:23:08 > 0:23:11but her kids are taking control.
0:23:11 > 0:23:14It's time to see if all their hard work has paid off
0:23:14 > 0:23:17and what friends and family will make of new-look Mum.
0:23:17 > 0:23:21I think Melanie would be feeling absolutely terrified at the moment.
0:23:21 > 0:23:23She's always blonde
0:23:23 > 0:23:26and I can't remember when I last saw her with brown hair.
0:23:26 > 0:23:28Well, I hope Josh has done a good job,
0:23:28 > 0:23:30because I know what he's like - stylish -
0:23:30 > 0:23:33so if he can do that with Melanie then she'll look quite good.
0:23:33 > 0:23:38'It's time to see if their new-look Mum is what they'd hoped for.'
0:23:38 > 0:23:40- Are you guys ready? - BOTH: Yeah.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42- Are you nervous?- Yeah.
0:23:42 > 0:23:43Really?
0:23:43 > 0:23:46I think we should put you out of your misery.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48- Shall we call your mum in? OK. - Let's get her in.
0:23:48 > 0:23:51Mel, come in and show us your new look.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55GASPS
0:23:57 > 0:24:00- APPLAUSE - Give us a twirl. Come on.
0:24:00 > 0:24:01Wow.
0:24:03 > 0:24:04What do you think?
0:24:04 > 0:24:06BOTH: That's amazing!
0:24:06 > 0:24:08So much better.
0:24:08 > 0:24:10- She looks more natural. - She's so different.
0:24:10 > 0:24:12Less make-up, less fake tan, less eyelash.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14What about the hair?
0:24:14 > 0:24:17- That is really nice. - More natural, a lot better.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18OK, shall we show her?
0:24:18 > 0:24:21She's looking a bit nervous there, let's put her out of her misery.
0:24:21 > 0:24:24OK, come on over here.
0:24:24 > 0:24:26She's getting tearful. Are you all right?
0:24:26 > 0:24:29Hold on to them, hold on to them.
0:24:29 > 0:24:30Three...
0:24:30 > 0:24:31two...
0:24:31 > 0:24:32one!
0:24:32 > 0:24:34Oh, my God!
0:24:37 > 0:24:40Look at my hair! It's so dark!
0:24:41 > 0:24:43I look skinny.
0:24:43 > 0:24:45THEY LAUGH
0:24:45 > 0:24:46That's a good mirror.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50It's classy, it's elegant
0:24:50 > 0:24:53and I've absolutely no doubt in saying this,
0:24:53 > 0:24:55that you're very proud to say she's your mum.
0:24:55 > 0:24:56KIDS: Yeah.
0:24:56 > 0:25:01- Do you feel classier though?- Yeah. No, I do feel nice. Yeah, absolutely.
0:25:01 > 0:25:06- JILL:- The children have done a wonderful job. I'm amazed.
0:25:06 > 0:25:07I really am amazed
0:25:07 > 0:25:10at how wonderful she looks.
0:25:10 > 0:25:11It takes me back a while.
0:25:11 > 0:25:14That's the sort of clothes I used to wear.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16Without all the make-up she just looks like even prettier.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18Yes, she does. Yeah.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Thank you, Kati. Thank you.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23The clothes that they've picked are lovely.
0:25:23 > 0:25:26Still it's, again, something I wouldn't have gone for
0:25:26 > 0:25:28but I can see where they're kind of going with it now
0:25:28 > 0:25:31and everything that they wanted - looking a bit older,
0:25:31 > 0:25:34a bit more like a mum rather than a big sister.
0:25:34 > 0:25:36So, yeah, I'm really pleased.
0:25:36 > 0:25:40Mel has come a long way from her high fashion, teenage style image.
0:25:40 > 0:25:44New look, elegant Mel is ready for the special treat
0:25:44 > 0:25:48Josh and Kati have lined up for her and their mystery guest.
0:25:48 > 0:25:51- So it's nearly time for your fun day out.- Yep.
0:25:51 > 0:25:53Do you have any idea what you're going to do?
0:25:54 > 0:25:56- Is she going to have fun?- Yeah. - Yeah.
0:25:56 > 0:25:58- You've got to trust these guys.- OK.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03- That is our car.- That is unbelievable.- Come on down!
0:26:03 > 0:26:04THEY CHUCKLE
0:26:05 > 0:26:07Our driver.
0:26:07 > 0:26:10- Hello!- ALL: Hi!
0:26:10 > 0:26:12It's Greg!
0:26:12 > 0:26:14Hi, you look lovely.
0:26:14 > 0:26:15- Thank you.- Bye!
0:26:15 > 0:26:18ALL: Bye! GREG: See you, guys.
0:26:22 > 0:26:24Bye!
0:26:24 > 0:26:26Have a nice time!
0:26:29 > 0:26:31BIRDSONG
0:26:31 > 0:26:36Josh and Kati chose a most elegant spot for their sophisticated mum -
0:26:36 > 0:26:41the aristocratic country retreat of East Riddlesden Hall.
0:26:41 > 0:26:43- It's stunning, isn't it?- I know.
0:26:43 > 0:26:47'Greg's lovely. He's a really nice guy, really funny,'
0:26:47 > 0:26:49just really easy to talk to.
0:26:49 > 0:26:51- Oh, look at that. - That looks impressive.
0:26:51 > 0:26:54'Mel was fab. She really wanted to get involved.'
0:26:54 > 0:26:56She seemed like she was enjoying herself.
0:26:56 > 0:26:58- Oh, look.- Oh, hello.
0:26:59 > 0:27:02JOSH: 'Seeing my mum with her new look,
0:27:02 > 0:27:05'she didn't look as much like a teenager
0:27:05 > 0:27:09- 'more of an adult.'- She looked more sophisticated, more like a mum.
0:27:09 > 0:27:11Oh, well done. I'm impressed by that.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15'To give the kids their due, they've made good choices all round today.'
0:27:15 > 0:27:17Oh, look at that!
0:27:17 > 0:27:19I think it has changed everything in a big way.
0:27:19 > 0:27:22I think I am going to look to change my wardrobe. I've actually got
0:27:22 > 0:27:26the details of Sarah, our coach from the ice-skating rink,
0:27:26 > 0:27:27to look at ice-skating lessons.
0:27:27 > 0:27:32So, yeah, it's all so positive so I can't thank the kids enough.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36'I think it's brought us closer as a family.'
0:27:36 > 0:27:40I won't be embarrassed any more when I'm out with her.
0:27:40 > 0:27:43I'm proud to say that she's our mum because she looks like a mum.
0:27:46 > 0:27:50Oh, wow! What a transformation.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Another successful Project Parent completed.
0:27:53 > 0:27:55MOO!
0:27:55 > 0:27:56Eh up, what's this?
0:27:56 > 0:27:58Thank you.
0:27:59 > 0:28:01"Dear Project Parent,
0:28:01 > 0:28:02"my mum lives in her slippers
0:28:02 > 0:28:04"and only goes out to put the rubbish out.
0:28:04 > 0:28:06"Please help."
0:28:06 > 0:28:10Another parent...another project!
