Wow! | 0:00:45 | 0:00:46 | |
Waah! | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
Welcome to a very special episode of The Dengineers. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
Yes. Today, we are at a children's hospice on the Wirral | 0:00:58 | 0:01:01 | |
to surprise a group of children with the news they're going to get | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
-the den of their dreams. -And strap yourself in, | 0:01:04 | 0:01:06 | |
because this is going to be our biggest build yet. | 0:01:06 | 0:01:09 | |
Today's Dengineers are the amazing folk | 0:01:13 | 0:01:15 | |
of Claire House Children's Hospice, | 0:01:15 | 0:01:18 | |
which is a Children In Need supported project. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
Dengineers, we really need your help to build us an awesome den | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
for our new hospice. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:25 | |
Where we can make lasting memories with our friends and families. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:29 | |
A hospice is a place that provides care for children with life-limiting | 0:01:29 | 0:01:32 | |
conditions and their families. | 0:01:32 | 0:01:34 | |
Ready, Hol? | 0:01:34 | 0:01:35 | |
A big part of what we do | 0:01:37 | 0:01:39 | |
is not just supporting the child, it's supporting the whole family | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
and that's really important for brothers and sisters. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
There's one, Shay. | 0:01:44 | 0:01:46 | |
That support carries on, sadly, when the child dies. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
Providing care afterwards is so important. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:52 | |
We used to come to the pool | 0:01:54 | 0:01:56 | |
and we've got videos of Ellie and Mia having fun. | 0:01:56 | 0:02:00 | |
They're memories that are so important to us. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:02 | |
Mia's sister Ellie spent a lot of time here | 0:02:02 | 0:02:05 | |
before she sadly died when Mia was three. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
And the hospice has played a huge role in helping her deal with | 0:02:07 | 0:02:11 | |
the loss of her sister. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:12 | |
She can speak to kids who have gone through the same thing | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
and you can see the fun they have. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:19 | |
It's quite a lonely place if your brother or sister has died | 0:02:19 | 0:02:22 | |
and the hospice really helps them. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:24 | |
You can see that they grow up and it's not a scary thing. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
The hospice is opening a brand-new site in Liverpool | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
so they can reach even more seriously ill children | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
and their families. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:34 | |
And it just so happens there's an area round the back | 0:02:34 | 0:02:36 | |
that is perfect for a dream den. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
The work that we do with these families is all about creating | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
memories that are going to last a lifetime. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:43 | |
If we could make a den outside for all the children | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
and their brothers and sisters, it would be absolutely brilliant. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
These guys really need our help, Joe. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
And that's exactly what they're going to get. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
They just don't know it yet. | 0:02:53 | 0:02:55 | |
For today's hit we've come to Hospice HQ, and our merry band of | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
Dengineers have been busy fitting their super-spying hidden cameras | 0:03:01 | 0:03:05 | |
all over the place. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
-I'm a bit nervous. -I'm excited. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
Our Dengineers have started to arrive at the hospice | 0:03:09 | 0:03:12 | |
and Loz and I have the perfect watch-out spot, | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
just above reception. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:16 | |
There's a lot of them, in't there? | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
There's, like, parents, siblings... | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
OK. Thumbs up. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:27 | |
Come on. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:28 | |
Everyone is in position. Time to deliver the amazing news. | 0:03:30 | 0:03:35 | |
Sorry... | 0:03:35 | 0:03:36 | |
Excuse me, hello, everybody. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
We've got a little bit of a surprise for you this morning. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
Actually, it's a massive surprise. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
-My name is Joe... -And my name is Lauren.. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
..and we're from CBBC's The Dengineers. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:49 | |
EXCITED CLAMOUR | 0:03:49 | 0:03:51 | |
Now, we have heard that there's a second hospice site being built | 0:03:54 | 0:03:58 | |
over in Liverpool, and you guys are going to need a space where | 0:03:58 | 0:04:01 | |
you can play with each other, | 0:04:01 | 0:04:03 | |
where you can relax and all hang out. Does that sound right? | 0:04:03 | 0:04:06 | |
Yes! | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
The good news is that's exactly what you're going to get! | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
CHEERING | 0:04:11 | 0:04:14 | |
Not just that, it's going to be the biggest den we've ever built! | 0:04:14 | 0:04:17 | |
I was so surprised. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
I was like this... | 0:04:21 | 0:04:22 | |
I'm so excited. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:25 | |
And it's basically been my dream to build a den. | 0:04:25 | 0:04:30 | |
So, who's up for a bit of hard work as well? | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
-ALL: -Me. -Are you sure? -Yeah! | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
I'm excited about when we make the den. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:39 | |
It'll be fun to build it with all our mates. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
There's very few places that children who have got very | 0:04:43 | 0:04:45 | |
complex health care needs in wheelchairs can play together | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
with their brothers and sisters. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:49 | |
So to be able to do that would be brilliant. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
It's lovely to meet you, Shay. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:54 | |
I'm really happy. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:56 | |
Really happy. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
It's going to give an opportunity for kids and siblings, | 0:04:58 | 0:05:02 | |
mums and dads to have memories, | 0:05:02 | 0:05:03 | |
which are more important than anything. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
Our first port of call is The Dengineers Mobile HQ, | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
which has some mega-cool technology to get this den rolling. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
And it's Ruby, Mia and Liam who are representing the hospice Dengineers. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:20 | |
You all use the hospice in different ways, | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
so you're, like, the best people to have in here to tell us | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-what you're going to need from the den. -You guys are in charge here. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:28 | |
We're going to take all of those ideas that you have buzzing around, | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
get them onto this massive screen | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
and we can work out how we're going to make this ginormous den. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:37 | |
So have a little look, see what you like. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:39 | |
This, so that you can chillax in there. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
Wow, lovely use of "chillax". | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
I like the disco on there. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
-That does look amazing, doesn't it? So, like a party room, maybe? -Yeah. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:51 | |
I love the idea of a little sing, dance and a boogie. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:53 | |
Guaranteed fun. | 0:05:53 | 0:05:55 | |
I think this, because it represents family. | 0:05:55 | 0:05:59 | |
It's, like, important to have memories with your family. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
Why are memories important to you? | 0:06:02 | 0:06:05 | |
I lost my sister a few years ago and I always think of her when | 0:06:05 | 0:06:08 | |
I'm at Claire House and I have fun times. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:11 | |
That's what it's all about, isn't it? | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
Remembering the really nice times you had together. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
What do we think it might look like? | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
-Could have, like, a treehouse. -Great stuff. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
Tell us about this picture? | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
It's a boy and he donated his tree house so that | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
families could enjoy it too. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:28 | |
-His name's Carson. -That's amazing. | 0:06:28 | 0:06:31 | |
So maybe this is something we could incorporate into the den? | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
Liam, what are you into that you'd quite like to see in the den? | 0:06:34 | 0:06:36 | |
-Cars. -You like a bit of speed, do you, Liam? -Yeah. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:41 | |
How could we incorporate speed or something into the den? | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
-Oh, a zip wire! -Oh, yeah! | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
We could have a zip wire through the whole den. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
And it could be for disabled people as well. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:52 | |
-That would be so cool! -Wow! | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
Dengineers Ruby, Mia and Liam | 0:06:55 | 0:06:57 | |
have decided on a treehouse theme for the hospice mega-den. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
With areas to party, chill | 0:07:01 | 0:07:02 | |
and make amazing memories with their friends and family. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
Oh, and they'd love an exhilarating zip line too. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:08 | |
But who will make our Dengineers' dreams a reality? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
Meet Sege. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
With over 30 years in the building biz, | 0:07:19 | 0:07:21 | |
he's perfect to take on our biggest den ever. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
But for this beast, | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
Sege is going to need some help, | 0:07:26 | 0:07:27 | |
so he's drafted in fellow designers... | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
..to help out. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
Now, I know all your Dengineers couldn't be here today, | 0:07:34 | 0:07:37 | |
but I'm going to explain the den | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
-to you so you can go away and tell all your friends, yeah? -OK. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
I think we should create a bit of a village that's all up in the air, | 0:07:41 | 0:07:46 | |
on stilts. Does that sound good? | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
-Yeah. -I've designed these places where you can all go and hang out, | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
all your parents and your friends and your siblings | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-and just have a lot of fun. Your own little wonderland. -Yeah. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
You all like to communicate in different ways, don't you? | 0:07:57 | 0:08:00 | |
We use sign language and use our eyes to communicate. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:04 | |
Well, I've got a surprise for you. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
There is a special part of the den | 0:08:06 | 0:08:07 | |
where you can all communicate, all together. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
It's just going to be fantastic, I think you're going to love it. | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
And how about a zip line? | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
-Yeah! -And wouldn't it be good if I could get you in there | 0:08:15 | 0:08:17 | |
-with your chair, Liam? -Yeah. -I think that's very, very doable. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
What do you think to the designs? | 0:08:21 | 0:08:22 | |
-Amazing. -Really? | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 | |
-Brilliant. -So am I good to go, then? Is this the sign off? | 0:08:24 | 0:08:27 | |
-Can I get started? -Yeah. | 0:08:27 | 0:08:29 | |
Fantastic! I can't wait. | 0:08:29 | 0:08:32 | |
Sege's plans for our biggest den ever have been given | 0:08:32 | 0:08:34 | |
the stamp of approval from the Dengineers. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:37 | |
He's designed a treehouse-inspired village, including places to | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
communicate, party and chill out with friends and family. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:44 | |
As if that wasn't huge enough, | 0:08:44 | 0:08:46 | |
Sege has also designed a zip line which is | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
accessible for every child at the hospice and a Happy Path which will | 0:08:48 | 0:08:52 | |
contain hundreds of happy memories sent in by CBBC viewers. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:57 | |
I didn't think it was going to be that good | 0:08:57 | 0:08:59 | |
and I'm really looking forward to building it. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
This is a fantastically big den. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:04 | |
It's the biggest build we've ever had to attempt on The Dengineers. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:08 | |
It's going to mean so much to the kids, | 0:09:08 | 0:09:10 | |
so it's really, really important that we pull this off. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
Plans signed off, the team start preparing the hospice ground | 0:09:13 | 0:09:16 | |
for this colossal build. | 0:09:16 | 0:09:18 | |
And I get together a group of Dengineers to help | 0:09:18 | 0:09:21 | |
with a spot of housekeeping. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
Jan, Leslie, you are both wonderful, we love you very much, | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
but we've got a message for you. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:28 | |
-You ready, everybody? -Yeah. -Three, two, one... | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
Get out! Dengineers only! | 0:09:30 | 0:09:33 | |
You ain't got a T-shirt, so see you later. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:35 | |
-Bye. -We've got to go. -We still love you! Bye! | 0:09:35 | 0:09:38 | |
Bye! Bye-bye. | 0:09:38 | 0:09:40 | |
I'm really, really excited about it. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:42 | |
Although a bit nerve-racking to hand over the control. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:45 | |
Yeah, it's going to be amazing. | 0:09:45 | 0:09:47 | |
For our families, time is precious. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:48 | |
So having a den like this outside our hospice, | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
what more could you ask? | 0:09:51 | 0:09:52 | |
For this build, Sege is planning to raise the entire den off the ground | 0:09:54 | 0:09:58 | |
using 170 logs. | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
We've got to shift all of those logs over there. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:05 | |
Oh... | 0:10:05 | 0:10:06 | |
-Are you up for it? -Yeah. -Yeah! | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
Yeah! | 0:10:08 | 0:10:09 | |
These logs are needed all over the site to be put into the hundreds of | 0:10:09 | 0:10:13 | |
holes that have been created by the Dengineers digger. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:16 | |
Oh, wow. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:18 | |
That's a lot of log! | 0:10:19 | 0:10:20 | |
Yes, OK! | 0:10:26 | 0:10:27 | |
That's it, everyone. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:29 | |
I do this sort of stuff all the time. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:31 | |
-No, you don't. -Yeah, you can tell you don't. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
If you placed all 170 logs on top of each other, | 0:10:34 | 0:10:37 | |
they'd be roughly the same height as three Big Bens. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
It's weird, cos I'm in the gym all the time! | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
Joe was terrible at lifting. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
And he lies. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:49 | |
Said he goes to the gym, but you could tell he doesn't. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:52 | |
Has it got to be, like, high? | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
Can we just, like, do a normal one, on the floor? | 0:10:54 | 0:10:58 | |
No? | 0:10:58 | 0:10:59 | |
Whilst Joe and co take a well-earned break, the rest of the team push on | 0:11:01 | 0:11:05 | |
and get all of the logs set into the ground. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:08 | |
With the ground ready, | 0:11:10 | 0:11:11 | |
it's time for the rest of the Dengineers team to arrive, | 0:11:11 | 0:11:14 | |
and they arrive with roughly 3,000 metres of timber. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:18 | |
If you laid this timber on top of each other | 0:11:18 | 0:11:20 | |
it would be the same height as 1,687 Seges, head to toe. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:26 | |
This is clearly the biggest den we've ever done, it's huge. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:30 | |
My worry is I may have gone too big, because, when you think about | 0:11:32 | 0:11:35 | |
the amount of time we've got to do this in, compared to | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
the amount of work we've got to do, I am more than worried. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:43 | |
There you go. Hold that tight for me, Puds! | 0:11:44 | 0:11:47 | |
The Dengineers have well and truly moved in | 0:11:47 | 0:11:49 | |
and Sege has a task that needs some immediate attention. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:52 | |
One of the biggest jobs we've got to do this morning | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
is chainsaw all of these stumps down to a certain height. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:58 | |
It's very important we get them almost millimetre-perfect. | 0:11:58 | 0:12:01 | |
If we get the calculations wrong and cut the posts too short, | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
we have a problem, | 0:12:05 | 0:12:06 | |
which would give me so much grief, it's unreal. | 0:12:06 | 0:12:09 | |
Whilst Dengineer Derek gets stuck in carefully cutting down the stumps, | 0:12:10 | 0:12:15 | |
our Dengineers help me make some refreshments for the team. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:18 | |
Instead of just boring old water, how about we make some fruity water? | 0:12:18 | 0:12:21 | |
Yeah! | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
The man in charge is Sege the Ledge, what kind of fruit would he have? | 0:12:23 | 0:12:27 | |
Cucumber? Because he's tall and thin. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
-Sege and that looks exactly the same to me. -Yeah! | 0:12:29 | 0:12:33 | |
There are around 50 people working on site, | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
so the Dengineers carry on making lots of fruity drinks. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
And I catch up with Leyton, | 0:12:41 | 0:12:43 | |
who has a special connection to this treehouse theme. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:46 | |
My little brother Carson had a treehouse. | 0:12:46 | 0:12:49 | |
Carson was energetic and happy and he always loved everyone. | 0:12:49 | 0:12:54 | |
Leyton's brother Carson was very ill and spent lots of time | 0:12:54 | 0:12:58 | |
receiving care at the hospice. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:00 | |
It was a nice place to stay. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
It was comfortable for Carson. | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
And there was lots of different rooms | 0:13:05 | 0:13:07 | |
where he could play and have fun. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
And when Carson got quite poorly, | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
what was one of the things that he really wanted? | 0:13:12 | 0:13:14 | |
He wanted a treehouse. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:16 | |
And that's exactly what you got for him, didn't you? | 0:13:16 | 0:13:18 | |
What was the treehouse like? | 0:13:18 | 0:13:20 | |
It was quite big, | 0:13:20 | 0:13:22 | |
and he'd play games and relax and read books. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:28 | |
I used to read him books. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:29 | |
It was special. | 0:13:29 | 0:13:31 | |
The time came for Carson to move to the Wirral hospice full-time | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |
and his awesome treehouse came with him. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:37 | |
Carson sadly died shortly after, but his treehouse is still there | 0:13:37 | 0:13:41 | |
for other children to enjoy as much as he did. | 0:13:41 | 0:13:44 | |
They like to play and hang out with friends | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
and they like to just get away from everyone | 0:13:47 | 0:13:51 | |
if they're feeling upset or unhappy, | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
and that's really special. | 0:13:54 | 0:13:56 | |
The Dengineers' drink break has done the job and the refreshed team start | 0:13:56 | 0:14:01 | |
to construct the steel frames for the den's amazing zip wire. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:04 | |
These trees have got to be protected, | 0:14:04 | 0:14:06 | |
so it's really important that we're very careful with the lift. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:11 | |
Some of the trees in this section of the hospice come with | 0:14:11 | 0:14:14 | |
a tree preservation order, | 0:14:14 | 0:14:15 | |
and that means they can't be damaged or cut down. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
Back out, come down. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:22 | |
We was a little bit too high in the canopy of the tree, | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
so I was worried that we were going to break a branch. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
We really can't do that. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:30 | |
The team have to carefully move the frame away from danger... | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
..and eventually get it into position | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
without breaking any branches in the process. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
Disaster averted, they start to fit the steel frames in position | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
while Dengineer Derek works his socks off | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
to finish cutting all the logs down to size. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
Despite the great start, the reality of the huge scale of this build | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
has really hit home with Sege. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
I'm really, really concerned | 0:15:00 | 0:15:01 | |
that I really have bitten off more than I can chew on this one. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
I promised these kids that they're going to get this den | 0:15:05 | 0:15:08 | |
and I've got to deliver. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:09 | |
It's day two of our gigantic build in Liverpool | 0:15:13 | 0:15:17 | |
and, after a quick site inspection from Dengineers Mia and Ruby... | 0:15:17 | 0:15:20 | |
This is amazing. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:22 | |
That can be for wheelchairs as well, they can get up it. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
..it's time to welcome another top designer onto site. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:29 | |
Hi, Olga. | 0:15:29 | 0:15:31 | |
-Hi, are you OK? -Yeah, are you? | 0:15:31 | 0:15:33 | |
What I've done is I've called in the other designers as well | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
to give me a hand on this. I've got Olga doing the party zone. | 0:15:36 | 0:15:39 | |
She understands fun. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
This is her all over. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:42 | |
Olga's designed the perfect party zone, where our Dengineers | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
can customise the whole space to celebrate any occasion they want. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:51 | |
Birthdays, discos, | 0:15:51 | 0:15:52 | |
even a VIP space to spend time with their family and friends. | 0:15:52 | 0:15:56 | |
They are the boss of this place. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:59 | |
The walls of the party zone are currently being constructed, | 0:15:59 | 0:16:02 | |
but things aren't moving fast enough for Sege. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:04 | |
We are really, really struggling at the moment. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:07 | |
It's looking like I might even have to get some extra help. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:10 | |
While Sege calls in the reinforcements, | 0:16:10 | 0:16:12 | |
Olga needs the Dengineers' help away from the den | 0:16:12 | 0:16:15 | |
with an awesome upcycle using some lollipop sticks. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:18 | |
I've designed a section of your party zone where you can dress up, | 0:16:23 | 0:16:27 | |
take pictures, have loads of fun. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:29 | |
-Wow. -So what we're going to do, we're going to use these | 0:16:29 | 0:16:32 | |
lollipop sticks and turn them into props that you | 0:16:32 | 0:16:35 | |
can put in front of your face. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:37 | |
So today, I quite fancy having a beard and a tie. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
-What do you think? Does it suit me? -Yeah! | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Dengineers George and Ava pick some fun stencils... | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
-Beard... -I want to do a bowtie. -Bowtie for you. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
Beard. | 0:16:50 | 0:16:51 | |
..and then draw around with them on some card and cut them out. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
I think the party zone is going to be so important to people because, | 0:16:54 | 0:16:59 | |
if something's just happened close to them, | 0:16:59 | 0:17:02 | |
they could just go in there, | 0:17:02 | 0:17:03 | |
have a good time and not be in a mood. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
You all deserve it so much and you're going to have | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
-a lovely time there with all your friends and family. -Yeah. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:12 | |
Props cut out, it's time for our Dengineers to decorate them, | 0:17:12 | 0:17:15 | |
and add a splash of personal style. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:18 | |
Shall we show it? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:19 | |
It's that there. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
-Cool. -Is that looking good? -Yeah. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:23 | |
Would you like a tie? | 0:17:23 | 0:17:24 | |
There's some glasses for you. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:26 | |
Here we go, smile! | 0:17:26 | 0:17:27 | |
The extra Dengineers have arrived on site and they're getting stuck in. | 0:17:30 | 0:17:34 | |
And away from the den, Ruby and Mia have a surprise for designer Sege. | 0:17:34 | 0:17:38 | |
So we heard that you're a dancing fan. Is that right? | 0:17:38 | 0:17:41 | |
Yes, I am a dancing fan. Yeah, I love dancing. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:44 | |
Well, you're going to like this. Come in, guys! | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
Oh! | 0:17:48 | 0:17:49 | |
-Hey! Yes! -How are you? | 0:17:49 | 0:17:51 | |
How are you? You don't know how much I wanted to meet... Oh! | 0:17:51 | 0:17:55 | |
Oh, this is my dream come true! | 0:17:55 | 0:17:57 | |
CBBC legend Ore Oduba won Strictly Come Dancing in 2016, | 0:17:58 | 0:18:03 | |
and Karen Clifton reached the final with Mark Wright in 2014, | 0:18:03 | 0:18:07 | |
so these guys are perfect to teach our Sege some awesome | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
jive kicks and flicks. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
We have one, two, three, four - switch - one, two, three, four. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:17 | |
One, two - one, two. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:19 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:21 | |
-OK. -Go on, let's try together. -OK. | 0:18:21 | 0:18:22 | |
Five, six, seven, go. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
One, two - one, two. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:29 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:18:29 | 0:18:31 | |
Yeah! | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
-That's not bad. -That is really good! -Very good! | 0:18:33 | 0:18:35 | |
I can't tell you how excited I am. | 0:18:35 | 0:18:38 | |
I love dancing, and if I wasn't a den builder | 0:18:38 | 0:18:41 | |
I would love to be a dancer. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:43 | |
-What about if our Dengineers got involved? -Brilliant idea. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
Five, six, seven, and... | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:49 | |
Switch! One, two - one, two. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
Just singles! One, two, three, four. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
-Wow, guys. -Hey! | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
That was excellent, guys. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
Sege is bossing the jive moves, but it's not me he needs to impress. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:02 | |
It's Ruby, | 0:19:03 | 0:19:04 | |
Ava, | 0:19:04 | 0:19:05 | |
Mia | 0:19:05 | 0:19:06 | |
and George. | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
Dancing the jive. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
It's Karen and Sege. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
Go! One, two, three, four, switch. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:19:14 | 0:19:16 | |
One, two - one, two. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:17 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
Whoo! | 0:19:24 | 0:19:25 | |
The judges' scores are in. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:28 | |
Amazing. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:31 | |
Oh, what?! Ten! | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
Fabulous. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:35 | |
Fantastic. Thank you. Oh, that's brilliant. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:38 | |
It's a ten from Len. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:39 | |
Ten! | 0:19:39 | 0:19:40 | |
I didn't like it. | 0:19:41 | 0:19:42 | |
I LOVED it. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
Ten! | 0:19:44 | 0:19:46 | |
What they said. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:49 | |
Yes! | 0:19:49 | 0:19:50 | |
This is my best day ever. | 0:19:53 | 0:19:55 | |
Dancing with Karen has been special. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:58 | |
Been better than Christmas as far as I'm concerned. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:00 | |
I thought Sege was incredible. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
Here's a guy who is ready to take the Strictly ballroom dance floor. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:07 | |
He's on it. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:08 | |
I want him to be my partner. | 0:20:08 | 0:20:10 | |
The only way that we could reward you for your amazing performance... | 0:20:10 | 0:20:14 | |
-It needs a trophy, Sege. -Oh, what?! | 0:20:16 | 0:20:19 | |
That is absolutely brilliant. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
-That is... -For you. -How about that? | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
-Sege? -Yes! | 0:20:27 | 0:20:29 | |
He is coming back, right? | 0:20:29 | 0:20:30 | |
Whilst Ore tries to get his trophy back, | 0:20:31 | 0:20:33 | |
the rest of the team pack up for the day. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:35 | |
So Ruby and I head off to see what everyday life is like for her | 0:20:35 | 0:20:39 | |
and her 15-year-old sister, Holly. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
So, this is a suction machine and when Holly coughs, | 0:20:41 | 0:20:45 | |
we use it to clear her throat out. | 0:20:45 | 0:20:47 | |
But we're not allowed to get this dirty, | 0:20:47 | 0:20:49 | |
cos it might infect her throat and she'll have to go to hospital. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:52 | |
And that's just for a cough, | 0:20:52 | 0:20:54 | |
something that is so small for us is such a big and, you know, | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
dangerous part of her life. | 0:20:57 | 0:20:59 | |
This is a sats monitor and it checks Holly's heart and her oxygen level. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:05 | |
If it beeps, it means she needs to go on more oxygen. | 0:21:05 | 0:21:08 | |
-And you look out for that? -Yeah. | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
-So, this is the tube... -That's her oxygen lead, is it? | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
-..that has oxygen in... -Right. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
..so if someone steps on it, like, cuts off her oxygen. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:19 | |
-Right. -So we really need to be careful of this. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
Absolutely. Don't put it anywhere near me. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
Just take the oxygen away and I won't break it, I promise. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:28 | |
Holly's condition means she can't walk, talk or eat, but that | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
doesn't stop her communicating with her friends and family. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:34 | |
-I normally stroke her hand, talk to her. -Yeah. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
And she'll communicate with her eyes. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:42 | |
Holly's feeling OK now. | 0:21:42 | 0:21:44 | |
She's kind of relaxed. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
She might go to sleep. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:47 | |
You must be the closest sisters in the world, then. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:49 | |
You can communicate without even talking. | 0:21:49 | 0:21:51 | |
Ruby doesn't so much to help care for her sister | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
and I'm want to find out a bit more about this from Mum. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:58 | |
I don't think I've ever met anybody like Ruby. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
The carer aspect of their relationship, | 0:22:01 | 0:22:03 | |
is that something that's just developed naturally? | 0:22:03 | 0:22:06 | |
That's just her as a person. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:08 | |
She asks to do these | 0:22:08 | 0:22:11 | |
highly medically skilled interventions all the time. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:14 | |
The beauty of it is that she doesn't see it as a responsibility, | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
she sees it as just being with her sister. | 0:22:18 | 0:22:21 | |
They are best friends. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:23 | |
The hospice is such a big part of your life. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
Do you think having the den is going to really improve | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
that quality of life that Holly's got and that you have as a family? | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
I am always thinking that one day I'm not going to have Holly with me, | 0:22:31 | 0:22:36 | |
but I'm always going to have the den there and I'm going to have these | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
special memories that will mean more to me than anything. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:43 | |
I can't really put into words how amazing it's going to be | 0:22:43 | 0:22:46 | |
for us as a family. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:47 | |
-Give me a cuddle. -Oh, come on. I know! | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
Our Dengineers have been working really hard | 0:22:55 | 0:22:57 | |
so I'm giving them a break from the build to come to | 0:22:57 | 0:23:00 | |
this forest in North Wales, which is home to some awesome adventures. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:04 | |
And first up today is the Alpine coaster, | 0:23:07 | 0:23:10 | |
a high-speed toboggan that runs on rails | 0:23:10 | 0:23:12 | |
through a super-windy woodland trail. | 0:23:12 | 0:23:15 | |
Is it scary? | 0:23:15 | 0:23:16 | |
Little bit. | 0:23:17 | 0:23:19 | |
And for one Dengineer, going on this ride is a big deal. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
Liam, you're up first. | 0:23:22 | 0:23:24 | |
Are you up for it? | 0:23:24 | 0:23:25 | |
Yeah. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
Liam's condition means he spends most of his time in a wheelchair. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:32 | |
And as a result, he's never been on a roller-coaster before. | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
Good luck, guys. See you in a bit. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:38 | |
Whoo! | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
What will it mean to Liam to be doing this? | 0:23:40 | 0:23:42 | |
Oh, he loves it. He loves speed. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:44 | |
He doesn't get opportunity to do anything like this and so, | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
yeah, I'm made up, we've got him in! | 0:23:46 | 0:23:48 | |
-Did you think you'd ever get to go on something like this? -No. | 0:23:48 | 0:23:51 | |
-Oh, it's so exciting! -Yeah, he's just like the others. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:54 | |
Liam and health care support worker Alex are at the top | 0:23:54 | 0:23:58 | |
of the 710m course. | 0:23:58 | 0:23:59 | |
Here we go. | 0:23:59 | 0:24:01 | |
Time for Liam's first-ever high-octane coaster experience. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:05 | |
Go, Liam! | 0:24:10 | 0:24:12 | |
He's going so fast! | 0:24:12 | 0:24:13 | |
Did you see him come down that corner? | 0:24:19 | 0:24:21 | |
Whoo! | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
Go, Liam! | 0:24:28 | 0:24:29 | |
I've never experienced anything like that cos it was just really fast. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:42 | |
Liam set the super-speedy pace and next up are his fellow Dengineers. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:49 | |
Go, go! Go faster! | 0:24:49 | 0:24:51 | |
Aargh! | 0:24:51 | 0:24:52 | |
I got a fly up me nose! | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
Finally, it's my turn to take on the Alpine coaster. | 0:24:58 | 0:25:02 | |
This is so much fun! | 0:25:02 | 0:25:03 | |
Oh, my goodness me. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
Yeah! | 0:25:06 | 0:25:07 | |
I did it! | 0:25:08 | 0:25:09 | |
You all right? | 0:25:11 | 0:25:12 | |
Tree coaster negotiated, | 0:25:12 | 0:25:13 | |
I joined the other group of Dengineers | 0:25:13 | 0:25:15 | |
on the towering tree-top nets | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
which stand a whopping 18 metres above the forest floor. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
Three, two, one, go! | 0:25:21 | 0:25:24 | |
ALL SCREAM AND WHOOP IN DELIGHT | 0:25:24 | 0:25:26 | |
OK, this next game is who can jump the highest? | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
Higher. Higher! | 0:25:31 | 0:25:33 | |
Wah! | 0:25:33 | 0:25:35 | |
Wow! | 0:25:35 | 0:25:36 | |
Do it again! | 0:25:36 | 0:25:38 | |
Go up. Yeah! | 0:25:38 | 0:25:41 | |
All this jumping has tired me out a treat, | 0:25:41 | 0:25:43 | |
so I grab a breather with our Dengineers' mums and dads to talk | 0:25:43 | 0:25:46 | |
about the huge role this amazing den will play in their lives. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:50 | |
It's not often that you get out to do stuff like this, is it? | 0:25:50 | 0:25:52 | |
No, very rare because, obviously, Holly's care is 24 hours a day. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:57 | |
The hospice is caring for Holly for us today to allow us to spend that | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
time with Ruby, which is invaluable. | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
I think it's totally understandable that Holly isn't here today, | 0:26:02 | 0:26:06 | |
but it's such a shame and what I'm really looking forward to | 0:26:06 | 0:26:09 | |
with the den is that that is going to be a place that she can access | 0:26:09 | 0:26:12 | |
as well as all the other kids. | 0:26:12 | 0:26:14 | |
When you see these children and the difficulties that they have | 0:26:14 | 0:26:18 | |
every day to deal with, to then go into a place and just be a child, | 0:26:18 | 0:26:22 | |
be with their siblings, | 0:26:22 | 0:26:23 | |
to have that environment that is specially built just for them, | 0:26:23 | 0:26:28 | |
there's going to be nowhere else like it | 0:26:28 | 0:26:30 | |
and we're going to have that den at our hospice, how lucky are we? | 0:26:30 | 0:26:33 | |
And, you know, so excited. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:34 | |
There's only one way to finish a brilliant day like today, | 0:26:36 | 0:26:39 | |
and that's with a game of Dengineers versus dads dodge ball. | 0:26:39 | 0:26:43 | |
Go! | 0:26:43 | 0:26:44 | |
Ten points if you get the dads. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:48 | |
Take them down! | 0:26:50 | 0:26:51 | |
Hang on, don't hurt the Dengineers. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:55 | |
We've got a den to build! | 0:26:55 | 0:26:57 | |
Aha! | 0:26:57 | 0:26:59 | |
Oh! | 0:26:59 | 0:27:00 | |
Do you know what? I think that what you call a den day out. | 0:27:03 | 0:27:06 | |
Whoo! | 0:27:06 | 0:27:07 | |
In Liverpool, it's the morning of build day three | 0:27:10 | 0:27:13 | |
and Sege has called in fellow designers Tony and Satwinder | 0:27:13 | 0:27:16 | |
to help with the next section of the den - the Bravo Bridge. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |
-Hi. -Hello, guys. How are you? -Very well. | 0:27:21 | 0:27:24 | |
Good to see you. | 0:27:24 | 0:27:25 | |
Tony and Satwinder are absolutely perfect for this bridge. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
They're brilliant architects, so this is their thing. | 0:27:28 | 0:27:32 | |
Tony and Satwinder have designed a curved, semi-see-through structure | 0:27:32 | 0:27:36 | |
for Bravo Bridge, so the Dengineers can view the entire den | 0:27:36 | 0:27:39 | |
when crossing over it. | 0:27:39 | 0:27:40 | |
They've also used vibrant wires | 0:27:40 | 0:27:42 | |
to add a splash of colour to the experience. | 0:27:42 | 0:27:46 | |
Sege and his team have constructed the bridge, | 0:27:46 | 0:27:48 | |
but Tony and Satwinder need the Dengineers' help | 0:27:48 | 0:27:51 | |
to add a colourful wow factor. | 0:27:51 | 0:27:53 | |
What we're doing is we're threading these coloured cords up and down | 0:27:53 | 0:27:57 | |
on the bridge to give it kind of a rainbow effect. | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
So we have to weave it through the holes, up and down. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:02 | |
-So it's like sewing? -Yeah. | 0:28:02 | 0:28:04 | |
This is a tricky job and the more hands on deck, the better. | 0:28:04 | 0:28:07 | |
And it's going to take more than a muddy hill | 0:28:07 | 0:28:10 | |
to stop Liam helping us out. | 0:28:10 | 0:28:11 | |
-Yeah! -CHEERING | 0:28:11 | 0:28:14 | |
Good lad! | 0:28:14 | 0:28:15 | |
-Liam. -Liam, that's it. | 0:28:15 | 0:28:18 | |
Nice one, mate. | 0:28:18 | 0:28:19 | |
We feel privileged to be involved in a project | 0:28:19 | 0:28:21 | |
which actually means quite a lot. | 0:28:21 | 0:28:23 | |
It's really special and I think the fact that it's accessible | 0:28:23 | 0:28:27 | |
for everyone, no matter what their abilities or disabilities, | 0:28:27 | 0:28:30 | |
means that everyone can have fun there. | 0:28:30 | 0:28:32 | |
When complete, this bridge will have seven different colours of thread | 0:28:32 | 0:28:36 | |
running through the sides, | 0:28:36 | 0:28:37 | |
giving off a magical feel when you're walking over it. | 0:28:37 | 0:28:39 | |
Elsewhere on the site, the team are continuing work on the zip line, | 0:28:41 | 0:28:44 | |
the design of which has given Sege a bit of an engineering headache. | 0:28:44 | 0:28:49 | |
It's very important that this zip wire is accessible to everyone | 0:28:49 | 0:28:53 | |
at the hospice. So we've had to create a basket-shaped cradle | 0:28:53 | 0:28:57 | |
so that the wheelchair can go on, and their carer. | 0:28:57 | 0:29:01 | |
Must give you a few engineering challenges? | 0:29:01 | 0:29:03 | |
This is the first time I've ever worked with a zip wire | 0:29:03 | 0:29:06 | |
and I've learned a lot. | 0:29:06 | 0:29:07 | |
Your regular zip wire has just one cable on it, doesn't it? OK. | 0:29:07 | 0:29:11 | |
Now let me just show you first how a zip wire on one cable works, OK? | 0:29:11 | 0:29:17 | |
-OK. -So if you'd just care to take that end. -Yeah. -OK? -Yeah. | 0:29:17 | 0:29:20 | |
Now imagine this is one person, OK? | 0:29:20 | 0:29:23 | |
-If I send one fella down... -Yeah. | 0:29:23 | 0:29:25 | |
-That's how that works. -That was intense. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
-But watch this. -Yeah. | 0:29:28 | 0:29:29 | |
-This is the cradle. -It's the basket. -Yes. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:31 | |
So keep it nice and tight, watch what happens. | 0:29:31 | 0:29:34 | |
-Nightmare. -Not good. | 0:29:34 | 0:29:35 | |
-And do you know why that's not good? -Why? | 0:29:35 | 0:29:37 | |
Because look how that is tipping. | 0:29:37 | 0:29:39 | |
-You see? -It's not even, is it? -It's not even. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:41 | |
So anybody in the cradle is going to fall out. | 0:29:41 | 0:29:44 | |
So how have you solved that problem? | 0:29:44 | 0:29:47 | |
On this zip line... | 0:29:47 | 0:29:48 | |
..we're using two, TWO cables. | 0:29:49 | 0:29:52 | |
I think this is one of the first times this has ever been done. | 0:29:52 | 0:29:55 | |
-Wow. -Watch this. -Yeah. | 0:29:55 | 0:29:56 | |
OK, so do the same again, Joe, keep it nice and tight. | 0:29:56 | 0:29:59 | |
-Go a bit lower. -Like that? -OK. | 0:29:59 | 0:30:00 | |
Look at that! | 0:30:01 | 0:30:03 | |
-How good is that? -That's, like, the best zip line ever! | 0:30:03 | 0:30:05 | |
And everybody here can enjoy it. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:07 | |
This zip has been designed with two wires | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
instead of the usual one wire system. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:12 | |
This helps spread the weight and balance the cradle. | 0:30:12 | 0:30:15 | |
For an added bit of engineering wow, | 0:30:15 | 0:30:17 | |
there's a special pneumatic break at the end of the zip | 0:30:17 | 0:30:20 | |
which reacts and adjusts to whatever weight is inside the cradle, | 0:30:20 | 0:30:24 | |
allowing for smooth stopping, no matter how many people are in there. | 0:30:24 | 0:30:27 | |
Back on site, Nell and her fellow Dengineers | 0:30:29 | 0:30:32 | |
are helping Sege paint the party zone. | 0:30:32 | 0:30:35 | |
You don't need to be so gentle. You can have long brushstrokes. | 0:30:35 | 0:30:38 | |
Nell started coming to the hospice with her brother Sam, | 0:30:38 | 0:30:41 | |
who sadly died when he was two years old. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:44 | |
He was amazing. | 0:30:44 | 0:30:45 | |
Like, he was so funny. | 0:30:45 | 0:30:47 | |
-You clearly miss him, don't you? -Yeah. | 0:30:47 | 0:30:49 | |
Well, I can tell you something, Nell, | 0:30:49 | 0:30:51 | |
-we're going to paint away for Sam then as well, aren't we? -Yeah. | 0:30:51 | 0:30:54 | |
As day three comes to an end, everyone has put in a huge effort | 0:30:54 | 0:30:57 | |
and things are looking up for designer Sege. | 0:30:57 | 0:31:00 | |
What a day. | 0:31:00 | 0:31:01 | |
So much progress has been made. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:03 | |
All the Dengineers have been brilliant. | 0:31:03 | 0:31:05 | |
We're still a bit behind, but do you know what, we're catching up. | 0:31:05 | 0:31:08 | |
It's day four of the build and there's just two days left | 0:31:12 | 0:31:15 | |
until the reveal of our biggest den ever. | 0:31:15 | 0:31:18 | |
Today's focus is the Can-Do Cabin, a place where hospice users | 0:31:21 | 0:31:25 | |
and their friends and family can all hang out together. | 0:31:25 | 0:31:28 | |
-What do you think? -Wow, a lot is happening. | 0:31:28 | 0:31:31 | |
And helping Sege with this section of the den | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
is fellow designer, Maral. | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
I am so excited to be part of such a huge build. | 0:31:36 | 0:31:40 | |
It is for such a good cause and the children are going to love it. | 0:31:40 | 0:31:44 | |
It's going to be amazing. | 0:31:44 | 0:31:46 | |
This awesome Can-Do Cabin has been designed to look like | 0:31:46 | 0:31:49 | |
a traditional fairground, complete with waltzer-style seating | 0:31:49 | 0:31:53 | |
and a special arts and crafts cart. | 0:31:53 | 0:31:55 | |
Before Maral can get to work, | 0:31:57 | 0:31:58 | |
the team need to find an alternative way to get | 0:31:58 | 0:32:01 | |
the awesome arts and crafts table into the room. | 0:32:01 | 0:32:04 | |
We're going to try and lift this cart | 0:32:04 | 0:32:07 | |
over the walls and into the den | 0:32:07 | 0:32:10 | |
because it's too big to go through the door. | 0:32:10 | 0:32:12 | |
This is a fragile piece of the den, | 0:32:12 | 0:32:15 | |
so the team carefully place some straps around the structure | 0:32:15 | 0:32:18 | |
and then it's time to get this cart airborne. | 0:32:18 | 0:32:20 | |
Higher, higher! | 0:32:28 | 0:32:30 | |
Yay! | 0:32:30 | 0:32:31 | |
The cart is over the walls | 0:32:34 | 0:32:35 | |
and now we need to get it down inside the room safely. | 0:32:35 | 0:32:39 | |
I hope it doesn't hit anyone on the head. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
Yay! | 0:32:43 | 0:32:45 | |
-Whoa, whoa! -Stop, stop! | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
Success. | 0:32:52 | 0:32:53 | |
Now that the Can-Do Cabin cart has made it safely into the den, | 0:32:53 | 0:32:57 | |
Maral has a cool idea for some upcycled seating to go with it. | 0:32:57 | 0:33:00 | |
We are going to turn this very ordinary household planter | 0:33:05 | 0:33:09 | |
that you plant some of your herbs and stuff like that in your home, | 0:33:09 | 0:33:12 | |
into a very cool seat for the den. | 0:33:12 | 0:33:15 | |
Maral has prepainted the garden planter, but she needs Ruby, | 0:33:15 | 0:33:18 | |
Nell and Liam's help to apply some masking tape to areas of the seat | 0:33:18 | 0:33:22 | |
that she wants to keep red. | 0:33:22 | 0:33:24 | |
You're doing a good job. | 0:33:24 | 0:33:26 | |
You got it? Perfect. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:28 | |
Masking complete, it's time to add some paint | 0:33:28 | 0:33:30 | |
to the rest of the planter to give it a traditional fairground look. | 0:33:30 | 0:33:34 | |
We are going to dab our sponge into the paint | 0:33:34 | 0:33:38 | |
and cover the areas that you see are red. | 0:33:38 | 0:33:42 | |
Dab it quite gently. | 0:33:42 | 0:33:44 | |
But this is not dabbing. | 0:33:44 | 0:33:46 | |
What do you mean? That is dabbing. | 0:33:46 | 0:33:48 | |
No, it isn't, this is dabbing. | 0:33:48 | 0:33:49 | |
Liam dabbed Maral! | 0:33:52 | 0:33:53 | |
The next time Ruby, Nell and Liam will see | 0:33:55 | 0:33:57 | |
their upcycled garden-planter chair, it'll have a cushion attached | 0:33:57 | 0:34:01 | |
to the top and will be on display in the Can-Do Cabin. | 0:34:01 | 0:34:04 | |
I'm really looking forward to seeing it in the den | 0:34:04 | 0:34:06 | |
because it's something that I made and it'll stay there forever. | 0:34:06 | 0:34:09 | |
Back on site, the team are cracking on with our amazing Happy Path. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:16 | |
Sege has designed a pathway for the den | 0:34:16 | 0:34:18 | |
which is made out of concrete slabs decorated with hundreds | 0:34:18 | 0:34:22 | |
of happy memories sent in by you lovely CBBC viewers. | 0:34:22 | 0:34:26 | |
And our Happy Path journey started months ago, when Loz and I | 0:34:27 | 0:34:30 | |
went on to Blue Peter to launch an amazing Dengineer send-in. | 0:34:30 | 0:34:34 | |
I've wanted to be on Blue Peter since I was, like, eight. | 0:34:34 | 0:34:37 | |
Well, I've wanted to be a member of a Happy Path since I was eight. | 0:34:37 | 0:34:40 | |
Well, that's good. I've got a Happy Path and you've got a Blue Peter. | 0:34:40 | 0:34:43 | |
-Everyone's winning. -Yeah. | 0:34:43 | 0:34:44 | |
The stage was set, time to launch our fantastic send-in to the nation. | 0:34:44 | 0:34:49 | |
-It's the biggest den that we've ever done... -Really? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:34:49 | 0:34:52 | |
-And we need help with it, basically. -OK, speaking of help, | 0:34:52 | 0:34:55 | |
-that is where you lot at home come in. -Yes. | 0:34:55 | 0:34:57 | |
You need to fill out your happy memory. | 0:34:57 | 0:34:58 | |
You can draw it, you can write it, | 0:34:58 | 0:35:00 | |
you can be quite creative, can't you? | 0:35:00 | 0:35:02 | |
Yeah, yeah. Loads of things. And it's everyone's chance | 0:35:02 | 0:35:04 | |
-to be a part of history. -I want to be a part of it, Lauren! | 0:35:04 | 0:35:07 | |
So basically, get involved. Come on, no excuses. Get drawing. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:09 | |
We received some awesome designs from you guys at home, | 0:35:09 | 0:35:13 | |
along with football legend Steven Gerrard. | 0:35:13 | 0:35:16 | |
Designs in, the next stage of our Happy Path journey | 0:35:17 | 0:35:20 | |
was to visit the place where your drawings have transformed | 0:35:20 | 0:35:23 | |
from paper to pathway slabs. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:26 | |
All right, Rob, how do we get our pictures onto the stones? | 0:35:26 | 0:35:29 | |
What's the plan? | 0:35:29 | 0:35:30 | |
We're going to use this cool sandblasting cabinet | 0:35:30 | 0:35:33 | |
to carve the designs into the stone. | 0:35:33 | 0:35:34 | |
We've got to do 200 of these designs, | 0:35:34 | 0:35:37 | |
so we need all the help we can get. | 0:35:37 | 0:35:38 | |
200? Girls, are you ready to help? | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
-Yeah! -We're ready to help. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:42 | |
The first step from paper to Happy Path slab involves | 0:35:42 | 0:35:45 | |
using ultraviolet light to make a stencil of the original design. | 0:35:45 | 0:35:49 | |
The material must be strong enough to withstand | 0:35:49 | 0:35:52 | |
the mighty sandblasting machine. | 0:35:52 | 0:35:54 | |
So this big light will shine down through the stencil, onto the blue, | 0:35:54 | 0:35:58 | |
and create the design for us. | 0:35:58 | 0:36:00 | |
So we put it underneath the lamp. | 0:36:00 | 0:36:03 | |
Here we go. | 0:36:03 | 0:36:04 | |
So, this is now exposing that blue material... | 0:36:04 | 0:36:07 | |
-Yeah. -..to bright light. Basically like sunlight, this, | 0:36:07 | 0:36:10 | |
exposing part of it, but not all of it. | 0:36:10 | 0:36:13 | |
And it'll switch off in a second. | 0:36:13 | 0:36:15 | |
There we go. | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
There's Joe's design. Can you see it? It's magic, isn't it? | 0:36:17 | 0:36:20 | |
The design is there, it's imprinted in that material. | 0:36:20 | 0:36:23 | |
And in a few minutes, you guys are going to make this appear. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:26 | |
-That's amazing. -Yeah. | 0:36:26 | 0:36:28 | |
For this magnificent magic trick, | 0:36:28 | 0:36:30 | |
all Rob needs is a water tap and a pressure washer. | 0:36:30 | 0:36:33 | |
What we do is we spray the stencil with the water | 0:36:33 | 0:36:37 | |
and that then dissolves the design and makes it magically appear. | 0:36:37 | 0:36:41 | |
Wow, it's a magical sink. | 0:36:41 | 0:36:44 | |
So we're just moving backwards and forwards. Oh, look! | 0:36:44 | 0:36:47 | |
I can see a tree. | 0:36:47 | 0:36:48 | |
Yes. | 0:36:48 | 0:36:50 | |
I see coconuts! | 0:36:50 | 0:36:51 | |
Look at that! | 0:36:51 | 0:36:53 | |
Wow! | 0:36:53 | 0:36:55 | |
Wow. | 0:36:55 | 0:36:56 | |
With Mia and Nell fully up to speed, they crack on making more stencils. | 0:36:57 | 0:37:02 | |
Whilst Holly and Ruby join in on the next step of the process. | 0:37:02 | 0:37:05 | |
So, we've got the stencil here | 0:37:07 | 0:37:08 | |
and we're now going to push it into the big, cool cabinet | 0:37:08 | 0:37:11 | |
where the sandblaster will fire grit through a nozzle | 0:37:11 | 0:37:14 | |
and it'll carve out the design for us. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
Holly and Ruby help to make sure both the concrete slab | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
and the sandblasting nozzle are in the correct position. | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
And then it's sandblasting time. | 0:37:23 | 0:37:26 | |
It looks brilliant. | 0:37:31 | 0:37:33 | |
It really does. | 0:37:33 | 0:37:34 | |
It's doing the clouds on your drawing. | 0:37:34 | 0:37:37 | |
-SHOUTING: -It's quiet as well. | 0:37:37 | 0:37:38 | |
Sandblasting complete... | 0:37:40 | 0:37:42 | |
There we go. | 0:37:42 | 0:37:43 | |
..all that's left is to paint the engraved design | 0:37:43 | 0:37:45 | |
and peel off the stencil. | 0:37:45 | 0:37:47 | |
Yes! Look at that. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:50 | |
OK, so I'm going to leave you to do the other 199. | 0:37:50 | 0:37:54 | |
-We've just got to go somewhere, OK? Bye. -Well, I... | 0:37:54 | 0:37:56 | |
Back at the build, the final Happy Path slabs are being laid. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:02 | |
And there's a special guest here to help out - | 0:38:03 | 0:38:06 | |
Lindsey from Blue Peter. | 0:38:06 | 0:38:08 | |
You can see we've got a bit of cement on the floor there. | 0:38:08 | 0:38:10 | |
So then what you have to do is you have to use this trowel | 0:38:10 | 0:38:13 | |
to smooth everything out. It's like icing a cake, actually. | 0:38:13 | 0:38:15 | |
-Oh, yeah. -And what you do, is you gently squidge it down. | 0:38:15 | 0:38:20 | |
Do you see that line there? | 0:38:20 | 0:38:22 | |
We've got to get nice and level with that line. OK? | 0:38:22 | 0:38:24 | |
Demo complete, | 0:38:24 | 0:38:26 | |
it's over to our slot to start laying some Happy Path slabs. | 0:38:26 | 0:38:29 | |
Hello! | 0:38:29 | 0:38:31 | |
Right, let's get to work. Come on, team. | 0:38:31 | 0:38:33 | |
-Are you meant to be leaning on that one, Joe? -What? Oh, no. | 0:38:33 | 0:38:36 | |
Ava, is it time for the slab proofing? | 0:38:36 | 0:38:38 | |
You need to get it spread more. | 0:38:38 | 0:38:40 | |
-Let me try. -OK. -Yeah, I think Lindsey will be able to do it. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:43 | |
-Do you reckon? -Yeah. | 0:38:43 | 0:38:44 | |
Yeah. Thank you for having faith in me. | 0:38:44 | 0:38:47 | |
What are you doing? | 0:38:47 | 0:38:49 | |
What are you doing?! Do you know what I mean? | 0:38:49 | 0:38:51 | |
-We're putting it down, she's lobbing it about... -I'm so sorry. | 0:38:51 | 0:38:54 | |
Does that matter? Oh, look, it's coming straight off. | 0:38:54 | 0:38:57 | |
-Girls, are you ready for a slab, mate? -Yeah. -Yeah? OK. | 0:38:57 | 0:39:00 | |
OK. | 0:39:02 | 0:39:03 | |
CHANTING: Joe, Joe. | 0:39:03 | 0:39:05 | |
-No, no! -No, not on the string! | 0:39:05 | 0:39:07 | |
Who did that one? | 0:39:08 | 0:39:09 | |
-Did you do that one? -No, Sege did that one. | 0:39:09 | 0:39:12 | |
-Oh, yours looks better than Sege's. -You can tell that one's mine. | 0:39:12 | 0:39:15 | |
Yeah, yours is well better than Sege's. | 0:39:15 | 0:39:16 | |
With Lindsey and the Dengineers' help, | 0:39:16 | 0:39:19 | |
the Happy Path is finished in no time. | 0:39:19 | 0:39:22 | |
I've absolutely loved being here and being a Dengineer for the day. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:25 | |
I think anyone who sent in a memory should be super-proud | 0:39:25 | 0:39:27 | |
because, looking around, all you want to do is smile. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:31 | |
There's happiness everywhere. | 0:39:31 | 0:39:33 | |
The Dengineers have worked really hard today | 0:39:35 | 0:39:38 | |
and as day four comes to an end, Sege has some news for them. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:43 | |
Can I just say what a fantastic help you've been? | 0:39:43 | 0:39:46 | |
We'd never have got this far without you. | 0:39:46 | 0:39:48 | |
I've got some fantastic surprises still to get done, | 0:39:48 | 0:39:51 | |
so I think it's time you guys get going. | 0:39:51 | 0:39:55 | |
But you are going to have a most wonderful den on the reveal day. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:59 | |
I'm feeling sad that I won't be able to see it. | 0:40:00 | 0:40:04 | |
But I love surprises. | 0:40:04 | 0:40:06 | |
I trust Sege because he's a good designer | 0:40:06 | 0:40:09 | |
and I think he'll make the den even better. | 0:40:09 | 0:40:12 | |
With loads still to do, | 0:40:12 | 0:40:14 | |
the rest of the team work late into the evening. | 0:40:14 | 0:40:16 | |
And I'm heading off site to see what life is like for Dengineer Liam | 0:40:20 | 0:40:23 | |
when he's not helping to build dens. | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
If you wanted to get from there to here, what do we have to do? | 0:40:25 | 0:40:30 | |
We have to use the hoist, up there. | 0:40:30 | 0:40:32 | |
It's got a remote control and you bring it over and it lifts me up. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
-It's like a theme park in here, innit? -Yeah. | 0:40:35 | 0:40:38 | |
Sounds complicated. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:40 | |
I shouldn't be in charge of something like that. | 0:40:40 | 0:40:42 | |
-No. -Is your mum about? -Yeah. -Mum? | 0:40:42 | 0:40:44 | |
So, you need to grab that while I grab the hoist. | 0:40:44 | 0:40:48 | |
This piece of equipment is really important for Liam | 0:40:48 | 0:40:51 | |
and he uses it every night when he goes to bed. | 0:40:51 | 0:40:54 | |
-Once the sling is on... -Yeah. | 0:40:54 | 0:40:56 | |
..you're going to press the blue button. | 0:40:56 | 0:40:58 | |
-I am colour-blind, so that's a bit... -OK, right. | 0:40:58 | 0:41:01 | |
-So, the one on the left. -Got you. | 0:41:01 | 0:41:03 | |
Liam, are you happy for me to give this a go? | 0:41:03 | 0:41:06 | |
-Erm, yeah. -JOE LAUGHS | 0:41:07 | 0:41:09 | |
Liam's not sure. | 0:41:09 | 0:41:11 | |
Everything securely attached, | 0:41:11 | 0:41:12 | |
it's time for the hoist to do its work, | 0:41:12 | 0:41:15 | |
lifting Liam out of his wheelchair and over to the bed. | 0:41:15 | 0:41:17 | |
Successful. | 0:41:19 | 0:41:20 | |
I'm a little bit in awe of you, mate. | 0:41:20 | 0:41:23 | |
That's something that everybody does every day and takes for granted. | 0:41:23 | 0:41:28 | |
Well done, mate. | 0:41:28 | 0:41:30 | |
Whilst Liam gets stuck into one of his racing games, | 0:41:30 | 0:41:33 | |
I catch up with his mum to find out how important | 0:41:33 | 0:41:35 | |
this den really will be for him. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:37 | |
It's accessible, he'll be able to go outside. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:39 | |
Normally when we go the hospice, | 0:41:39 | 0:41:41 | |
he'll be sitting inside playing the computer games, | 0:41:41 | 0:41:43 | |
but now he's going to join in, cos that what he wants to do, | 0:41:43 | 0:41:46 | |
and go outside and play with them. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:48 | |
And also, it's a lasting legacy. | 0:41:48 | 0:41:49 | |
It's going to be there forever. | 0:41:49 | 0:41:51 | |
And he can say, "I'm proud cos I was part of that." | 0:41:51 | 0:41:53 | |
It's the final day before the reveal of our biggest den ever. | 0:41:56 | 0:42:00 | |
And with so much work still to do, | 0:42:03 | 0:42:05 | |
Sege has called in some CBBC reinforcements. | 0:42:05 | 0:42:08 | |
Hang on a second, where's Hacker? | 0:42:21 | 0:42:23 | |
Ugh, that meat-paste smoothie's gone right through me! | 0:42:23 | 0:42:27 | |
There's so much for you guys to do over there. | 0:42:29 | 0:42:31 | |
I'm just going to send you over to all different parts of the den | 0:42:31 | 0:42:33 | |
-and let you crack on. -All right. -Ben Shires? | 0:42:33 | 0:42:35 | |
-Greetings! -OK, you're off to the water well, please, crack on. | 0:42:35 | 0:42:38 | |
-Oh, a water job. -Off you go! | 0:42:38 | 0:42:40 | |
-OK, and where's Ayshah from Newsround? -I'm here, I'm here! | 0:42:40 | 0:42:43 | |
Zip line duty for you. | 0:42:43 | 0:42:44 | |
Aw, what? That's hardly fair. | 0:42:45 | 0:42:47 | |
-Right, Naomi from Marrying Mum And Dad? -Here, sir. | 0:42:47 | 0:42:50 | |
Great, I need your help on a surprise we've got going on, | 0:42:50 | 0:42:53 | |
so if you head over that way, I'll come and see you | 0:42:53 | 0:42:55 | |
-and let you know what it is. -Gotcha. | 0:42:55 | 0:42:57 | |
-So, you guys must be CBBC HQ? -Yes, indeed. -Correct. | 0:42:57 | 0:43:00 | |
Your services are requested at Paradise Hut. | 0:43:00 | 0:43:03 | |
-Oh, score. -That sounds good, doesn't it? | 0:43:03 | 0:43:04 | |
Hang on. Take that dog with you as well. | 0:43:04 | 0:43:06 | |
Oh, it was too good to be true. | 0:43:06 | 0:43:08 | |
-Hacker? -Off you pop, bye. -Bye. | 0:43:08 | 0:43:10 | |
We are so excited to be here today. It's brilliant. | 0:43:10 | 0:43:12 | |
Yeah, this is such a fantastic project, | 0:43:12 | 0:43:14 | |
and I'll tell you what, we are not leaving until... | 0:43:14 | 0:43:17 | |
..this den is done! | 0:43:17 | 0:43:18 | |
No, we do that at the end. | 0:43:18 | 0:43:20 | |
-What? -It's just a bit weird if you do it on your own. | 0:43:20 | 0:43:22 | |
Where did he even come from? | 0:43:22 | 0:43:23 | |
The first job Sege needs help with is a spot of painting | 0:43:25 | 0:43:28 | |
in the Paradise Hut, and CBBC HQ are raring to go. | 0:43:28 | 0:43:32 | |
So, Joe, how many children are actually going to use this den? | 0:43:33 | 0:43:36 | |
Well, over the years, it'll be hundreds. | 0:43:36 | 0:43:40 | |
Not just the kids, for the families as well to come and have a bit of | 0:43:40 | 0:43:42 | |
-quality time together. -Sounds amazing that, Joe. | 0:43:42 | 0:43:45 | |
And not one to be left out, | 0:43:45 | 0:43:46 | |
Hacker is on hand for a bit of verbal encouragement. | 0:43:46 | 0:43:49 | |
You're doing a rubbish job. Paint better! | 0:43:49 | 0:43:51 | |
-You're not... -Are you serious? | 0:43:51 | 0:43:53 | |
You're not doing anything so you can't say anything... | 0:43:53 | 0:43:55 | |
Well, I'm dry-clean only, Kathy! | 0:43:55 | 0:43:57 | |
While CBBC HQ crack on in the Paradise Hut, | 0:43:57 | 0:44:00 | |
Mr Ben Shires is having a closer look | 0:44:00 | 0:44:02 | |
at the den's wonderful water wheel. | 0:44:02 | 0:44:05 | |
And he wants to pick Sege's brains about the effect | 0:44:05 | 0:44:07 | |
these waterworks have on the environment. | 0:44:07 | 0:44:10 | |
Won't you need to leave the tap running 24/7 | 0:44:10 | 0:44:13 | |
-so it keeps on turning round? -Ah, no, you see, Ben, | 0:44:13 | 0:44:15 | |
we've come up with a really cool engineering solution. | 0:44:15 | 0:44:17 | |
So if I take this and drop it in... | 0:44:17 | 0:44:20 | |
So you need to imagine that this is our water wheel in our water pit. | 0:44:20 | 0:44:25 | |
-I'm there. -OK. | 0:44:25 | 0:44:26 | |
The pit has to have water in it to start with. | 0:44:26 | 0:44:29 | |
And inside is a little electrical pump, OK, | 0:44:29 | 0:44:31 | |
the pump sucks the water up through a hose, | 0:44:31 | 0:44:33 | |
up onto this part of the water wheel. | 0:44:33 | 0:44:35 | |
So if I just demonstrate to you what happens then, | 0:44:35 | 0:44:38 | |
the water starts to fill these buckets up, OK? | 0:44:38 | 0:44:40 | |
-Can you see the buckets in the water wheel? -It's getting full. | 0:44:40 | 0:44:43 | |
-And as they fill up... -Oh! | 0:44:43 | 0:44:44 | |
-..the water wheel starts to move. -Sege! Oh, it's science, Sege. | 0:44:44 | 0:44:47 | |
And as it drops down, what actually happens is all the water | 0:44:47 | 0:44:50 | |
from the buckets drops back into the pit | 0:44:50 | 0:44:53 | |
and then the pump does the same job all over again. | 0:44:53 | 0:44:56 | |
Sucks the water in, up through the hose and back round. | 0:44:56 | 0:44:58 | |
So actually we're not wasting any water. | 0:44:58 | 0:45:00 | |
We're just constantly using the same water. | 0:45:00 | 0:45:03 | |
I mean, how cool of an engineering idea is that? | 0:45:03 | 0:45:05 | |
That is incredible. | 0:45:05 | 0:45:07 | |
This water wheel has been engineered to sit in a pit | 0:45:07 | 0:45:10 | |
which has a clever pump to send the water to the top of the wheel | 0:45:10 | 0:45:13 | |
for it to fall back down via the buckets. | 0:45:13 | 0:45:16 | |
The process repeats over and over again, | 0:45:16 | 0:45:18 | |
constantly recycling the water in the pit. | 0:45:18 | 0:45:21 | |
It's now time for a very important stage of this epic build. | 0:45:22 | 0:45:26 | |
-Who's ready for a kickabout? -Yay! | 0:45:26 | 0:45:30 | |
Oh, I don't like running. | 0:45:30 | 0:45:31 | |
It's Dengineers versus CBBC crew. | 0:45:33 | 0:45:36 | |
This duel is bigger than any local derby, any World Cup Final. | 0:45:36 | 0:45:41 | |
Dengineers pride is at stake. | 0:45:41 | 0:45:43 | |
Dengineers! | 0:45:43 | 0:45:45 | |
Oh, close though. That WAS close. | 0:45:51 | 0:45:53 | |
Yes! | 0:46:06 | 0:46:07 | |
Sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. | 0:46:09 | 0:46:11 | |
All even in the big game, | 0:46:13 | 0:46:14 | |
our CBBC pals head back on site to help get this awesome den finished. | 0:46:14 | 0:46:19 | |
Ayshah is helping Sege with some finishing touches to the zip wire. | 0:46:20 | 0:46:24 | |
Oh, I'm a pro. I've got it. | 0:46:24 | 0:46:27 | |
And Naomi is getting stuck in with the surprise Communication Pad, | 0:46:27 | 0:46:31 | |
which will be home to some top tech. | 0:46:31 | 0:46:33 | |
It's a tile with the name of an emotion on there. So, happy, sad... | 0:46:33 | 0:46:38 | |
And when the children come along, no matter how they're feeling, | 0:46:38 | 0:46:40 | |
wave their hand, it lights up and shouts out, "Happy, sad." | 0:46:40 | 0:46:45 | |
So even if a child can't speak, | 0:46:45 | 0:46:46 | |
-they can tell everyone how they're feeling? -Exactly that. | 0:46:46 | 0:46:49 | |
Day five is nearly done and although the team have pulled out | 0:46:49 | 0:46:53 | |
all the stops to get the den finished, | 0:46:53 | 0:46:55 | |
the amazing sensory garden is still to be completed. | 0:46:55 | 0:46:58 | |
So, Sege needs all the CBBC crew to muck in | 0:46:58 | 0:47:01 | |
and finish laying the turf. | 0:47:01 | 0:47:02 | |
-Get that. -There we go. -That's it. That's it. | 0:47:04 | 0:47:06 | |
-There we go. -Oh! -Oh, no! | 0:47:06 | 0:47:08 | |
You've torn the turf! | 0:47:08 | 0:47:10 | |
Don't grass her up. | 0:47:10 | 0:47:11 | |
-THEY GROAN -Yes! Come on. Thank you. | 0:47:11 | 0:47:15 | |
How many idiots does it take to lay some turf? | 0:47:15 | 0:47:18 | |
That many. | 0:47:18 | 0:47:19 | |
-Yes! -Yes! | 0:47:20 | 0:47:22 | |
Yes. | 0:47:22 | 0:47:23 | |
-Yes! -Whoo-hoo! | 0:47:23 | 0:47:25 | |
After a monumental effort from everyone on site, | 0:47:25 | 0:47:29 | |
our biggest den ever is complete. | 0:47:29 | 0:47:33 | |
Yay! | 0:47:33 | 0:47:34 | |
This den is superb. | 0:47:37 | 0:47:39 | |
I mean, there's so many rooms to go into, they're all accessible. | 0:47:39 | 0:47:42 | |
It's just going to be great | 0:47:42 | 0:47:43 | |
that all the families can share time together. | 0:47:43 | 0:47:46 | |
It's a huge team who've worked on this den and it shows. | 0:47:46 | 0:47:49 | |
Everything has been done in such great detail, | 0:47:49 | 0:47:51 | |
with such great love and attention. | 0:47:51 | 0:47:53 | |
We've really enjoyed it and the den is absolutely fantastic. | 0:47:53 | 0:47:56 | |
They're going to love it! | 0:47:56 | 0:47:58 | |
This section of the new hospice started as a blank canvas. | 0:48:06 | 0:48:09 | |
But after five days of incredible hard work, | 0:48:11 | 0:48:14 | |
Sege and his humongous team of dedicated Dengineers | 0:48:14 | 0:48:17 | |
have transformed it into a true treehouse-inspired village of dens | 0:48:17 | 0:48:21 | |
where the whole hospice can make some amazing memories. | 0:48:21 | 0:48:25 | |
The stage is set to reveal the biggest den | 0:48:26 | 0:48:29 | |
the Dengineers have ever attempted, | 0:48:29 | 0:48:32 | |
and over 150 guests have turned up, eager to see it. | 0:48:32 | 0:48:35 | |
I'm really looking forward to seeing the den because it's going to | 0:48:39 | 0:48:42 | |
really help the children that are coming today. | 0:48:42 | 0:48:45 | |
It's going to have an effect on lots of people's lives | 0:48:45 | 0:48:48 | |
and it's going to be really important. | 0:48:48 | 0:48:51 | |
These children deserve this den so much. | 0:48:51 | 0:48:53 | |
Time is so precious, so allowing them to have a space | 0:48:53 | 0:48:56 | |
where they can create amazing memories... | 0:48:56 | 0:48:58 | |
It's just going to mean so much to everybody. | 0:48:58 | 0:49:01 | |
ALL: Three, two, one! | 0:49:01 | 0:49:04 | |
It's not a den, it's a village! | 0:49:11 | 0:49:13 | |
Our hospice Dengineers dreamt of a treehouse-themed den | 0:49:15 | 0:49:18 | |
where they could play, relax and make amazing memories | 0:49:18 | 0:49:21 | |
with their friends and family. | 0:49:21 | 0:49:23 | |
And Sege and his team have delivered the biggest den we've ever built. | 0:49:23 | 0:49:28 | |
What do you guys think? | 0:49:28 | 0:49:29 | |
That is amazing! | 0:49:29 | 0:49:31 | |
I couldn't have expected anything more. | 0:49:35 | 0:49:37 | |
It's massive and it's so colourful and bright. | 0:49:37 | 0:49:41 | |
I couldn't pick a better den. | 0:49:41 | 0:49:42 | |
This mammoth site contains not one, but four individual dens. | 0:49:44 | 0:49:49 | |
It also has an awesome bridge, | 0:49:49 | 0:49:51 | |
a magical tunnel, | 0:49:51 | 0:49:53 | |
a fantastic happy path | 0:49:53 | 0:49:55 | |
and an amazing sensory garden. | 0:49:55 | 0:49:57 | |
And, on top of that, it boasts a wonderful | 0:49:57 | 0:49:59 | |
wheelchair-accessible zip wire. | 0:49:59 | 0:50:01 | |
It's like a dream come true, what you've created for us. | 0:50:02 | 0:50:06 | |
The hospice is going to be the best hospice in the world now. | 0:50:06 | 0:50:09 | |
First up for our Dengineers is to see Sege's Paradise Hut, | 0:50:10 | 0:50:14 | |
a place where everyone at the hospice can chill | 0:50:14 | 0:50:16 | |
and feel like they're on holiday. | 0:50:16 | 0:50:18 | |
Whoa! | 0:50:18 | 0:50:21 | |
Welcome, welcome. | 0:50:21 | 0:50:22 | |
As well as an amazing tropical look, | 0:50:23 | 0:50:25 | |
this chilled space has a hidden feature | 0:50:25 | 0:50:28 | |
essential for a holiday hang-out. | 0:50:28 | 0:50:30 | |
What you do is you open this | 0:50:30 | 0:50:32 | |
and you can even look out to the beach. | 0:50:32 | 0:50:35 | |
-Wow. -How about that? | 0:50:35 | 0:50:38 | |
That's amazing. | 0:50:38 | 0:50:40 | |
My favourite part of the den is the Paradise Hut, | 0:50:40 | 0:50:42 | |
because it's really relaxed. | 0:50:42 | 0:50:44 | |
Welcome to the Paradise Hut, you guys. | 0:50:44 | 0:50:47 | |
It's amazing. I'm absolutely overwhelmed, to be honest. | 0:50:48 | 0:50:52 | |
Just cos home life can be quite stressful for our little ones, so... | 0:50:52 | 0:50:54 | |
-No stress in here. -No, none at all. | 0:50:56 | 0:50:59 | |
When you've got a child that's sick, | 0:50:59 | 0:51:01 | |
it impacts on the whole family. | 0:51:01 | 0:51:04 | |
But to come and do something fun | 0:51:04 | 0:51:06 | |
makes a massive difference to all the children and the families. | 0:51:06 | 0:51:11 | |
Next up for the Dengineers is the fantastic | 0:51:11 | 0:51:14 | |
fairground-inspired Can-Do Cabin, which Maral helped to design. | 0:51:14 | 0:51:18 | |
Come in. Come up here. | 0:51:21 | 0:51:23 | |
I painted the chairs. | 0:51:23 | 0:51:25 | |
Me and Holly did. | 0:51:25 | 0:51:27 | |
I'm out of words. | 0:51:27 | 0:51:28 | |
In here, there is loads of arts and crafts equipment, | 0:51:29 | 0:51:33 | |
meaning the hospice children can do anything they like. | 0:51:33 | 0:51:35 | |
And when they want to chill out, | 0:51:35 | 0:51:37 | |
there's some waltzer-style chairs | 0:51:37 | 0:51:39 | |
and their upcycled fairground seats. | 0:51:39 | 0:51:42 | |
-Don't they look good? -Yeah. | 0:51:42 | 0:51:44 | |
Just incredible. It's magical, isn't it? | 0:51:44 | 0:51:47 | |
It's more than we could ever have imagined. | 0:51:47 | 0:51:49 | |
For every child, for every age, | 0:51:49 | 0:51:51 | |
there's something for everybody. It is just fabulous. | 0:51:51 | 0:51:54 | |
The fair's quite noisy for Holly and she can't really cope | 0:51:54 | 0:51:57 | |
with everything that's going on, so now Holly can go to the fair. | 0:51:57 | 0:52:00 | |
-I'm so pleased. -It's great! | 0:52:00 | 0:52:02 | |
-Thank you. -Oh, my pleasure. | 0:52:02 | 0:52:04 | |
Seeing their happy faces today has just meant the world. | 0:52:04 | 0:52:07 | |
The fact that we could have contributed a tiny bit | 0:52:07 | 0:52:10 | |
to their life experience has just meant a lot to me, personally. | 0:52:10 | 0:52:13 | |
It's Olga's Party Zone next, | 0:52:15 | 0:52:17 | |
which has a stylish, retro look | 0:52:17 | 0:52:19 | |
and can be customised to any type of party the Dengineers desire. | 0:52:19 | 0:52:23 | |
Oh! | 0:52:23 | 0:52:24 | |
What do you think? | 0:52:24 | 0:52:26 | |
-It's amazing. -This is awesome. | 0:52:26 | 0:52:29 | |
It's going to have lots of memories here. | 0:52:29 | 0:52:31 | |
Or, like, the mum and dads can come here and have, like, a night out. | 0:52:31 | 0:52:34 | |
-What do you think? Mum and Dad's night out? -Sounds like a plan, yeah. | 0:52:34 | 0:52:38 | |
My favourite bit is the disco room. It's bright, it's cheery. | 0:52:38 | 0:52:41 | |
The kids are just going to have a ball in there, | 0:52:41 | 0:52:43 | |
as will some of the adults. | 0:52:43 | 0:52:45 | |
Hit the music! | 0:52:45 | 0:52:46 | |
I think this place is going to mean so much to the kids | 0:52:59 | 0:53:02 | |
and to the parents. It's going to change their lives. | 0:53:02 | 0:53:04 | |
It meant a lot to be part of this project. | 0:53:04 | 0:53:06 | |
I think it's going to stay in my memory for long. | 0:53:06 | 0:53:09 | |
It's time for the Dengineers to see Bravo Bridge, | 0:53:09 | 0:53:12 | |
designed by our awesome architects Tony and Satwinder. | 0:53:12 | 0:53:18 | |
-What do you think to it? -Wow. It's amazing. | 0:53:18 | 0:53:20 | |
It's like a big rainbow, lots of different colours... | 0:53:20 | 0:53:22 | |
When you walk through | 0:53:22 | 0:53:24 | |
you'll get all the light shining off the different cables. | 0:53:24 | 0:53:27 | |
-It'll be just fantastic. -It's amazing. | 0:53:27 | 0:53:29 | |
-Yeah? -Just everything about the den's amazing. | 0:53:29 | 0:53:33 | |
This den will mean the world to our family because, obviously, | 0:53:33 | 0:53:37 | |
George suffers and before he's going to have to go to hospital, | 0:53:37 | 0:53:42 | |
I think he would love to come here and just enjoy himself. | 0:53:42 | 0:53:45 | |
Boys, as with everything you do, it's beautiful. | 0:53:45 | 0:53:47 | |
-Thank you. -Yeah, no worries. -Thanks, guys. | 0:53:47 | 0:53:50 | |
It feels really amazing that the bridge has gone down so well | 0:53:50 | 0:53:53 | |
with the children, to know that it's going to have a special place | 0:53:53 | 0:53:56 | |
-in the children's hearts, for us, is absolutely fantastic. -Yeah. | 0:53:56 | 0:54:00 | |
It's great to be part of something that's bigger than just us. | 0:54:00 | 0:54:03 | |
Now it's the part of the den speedster Liam has been waiting for. | 0:54:06 | 0:54:10 | |
OK, strap us in. | 0:54:10 | 0:54:12 | |
Get ready, Liam. | 0:54:12 | 0:54:13 | |
The hospice's very own wheelchair-accessible zip wire. | 0:54:13 | 0:54:18 | |
ALL: Three, two, one, go! | 0:54:18 | 0:54:22 | |
I think the zip line's really fun and I'd like to go on it a lot more. | 0:54:33 | 0:54:38 | |
Liam wanted speed. | 0:54:38 | 0:54:39 | |
He asked for it and he got it. | 0:54:39 | 0:54:41 | |
The surprises keep on coming in the form of the Communication Pad, | 0:54:41 | 0:54:46 | |
a place where every child at the hospice | 0:54:46 | 0:54:48 | |
can communicate with one another. | 0:54:48 | 0:54:50 | |
-COMPUTER: Excited! -There you are, well done. | 0:54:50 | 0:54:52 | |
Holly can't communicate with voice like everybody else, | 0:54:52 | 0:54:56 | |
so this room will be amazing. | 0:54:56 | 0:54:58 | |
It is just absolutely awesome. | 0:54:58 | 0:55:01 | |
You've created a whole new world for our children, not just a den, | 0:55:01 | 0:55:05 | |
a whole new world for them. | 0:55:05 | 0:55:07 | |
And that's there forever. | 0:55:07 | 0:55:09 | |
It's.... | 0:55:09 | 0:55:10 | |
Can't put a price on that. | 0:55:10 | 0:55:13 | |
The den is proving a massive hit with everyone here, | 0:55:13 | 0:55:17 | |
and the Happy Path is drawing a big crowd, | 0:55:17 | 0:55:20 | |
all eager to see the happy memories sent in by the Blue Peter viewers. | 0:55:20 | 0:55:24 | |
Me and Holly like the Happy Path, | 0:55:24 | 0:55:26 | |
because she can see everyone's memories that you don't even know. | 0:55:26 | 0:55:29 | |
Blue Peter fans, Dengineer fans, so it's really nice. | 0:55:29 | 0:55:33 | |
It feels so wonderful to know that so many children are going to enjoy | 0:55:33 | 0:55:38 | |
so much of what I've designed. | 0:55:38 | 0:55:40 | |
This is the biggest and most special den I've ever done. | 0:55:40 | 0:55:45 | |
This den's going to change hundreds and hundreds of children | 0:55:45 | 0:55:48 | |
and families' lives, and the excitement that this has created, | 0:55:48 | 0:55:52 | |
that's not what you expect in children's hospice. | 0:55:52 | 0:55:54 | |
It could all very much be about death and dying | 0:55:54 | 0:55:56 | |
and this is going to make it about life and living. | 0:55:56 | 0:55:59 | |
One of the big inspirations for this den was Leyton's brother Carson | 0:56:00 | 0:56:03 | |
and his treehouse, and we've got one final surprise in store. | 0:56:03 | 0:56:07 | |
Oh! | 0:56:12 | 0:56:13 | |
-It's brilliant. -Do you think he'd like it? | 0:56:13 | 0:56:16 | |
I think he'll love it. | 0:56:16 | 0:56:17 | |
Thank you. | 0:56:17 | 0:56:18 | |
I think that the sign at the start of the den is very special | 0:56:18 | 0:56:23 | |
because it's representing Carson and his treehouse | 0:56:23 | 0:56:26 | |
and how much fun he used to have in it. | 0:56:26 | 0:56:28 | |
All our Dengineers absolutely love the den | 0:56:28 | 0:56:31 | |
and there's one person in particular that they want to thank. | 0:56:31 | 0:56:35 | |
One, two, three... | 0:56:35 | 0:56:36 | |
ALL: Thank you! | 0:56:36 | 0:56:38 | |
Aw, brilliant. | 0:56:38 | 0:56:39 | |
Let's have it. Oh, thank you. Thank you. | 0:56:39 | 0:56:42 | |
How grateful am I to all the Dengineers? | 0:56:42 | 0:56:45 | |
They've been absolutely amazing, every single one of them. | 0:56:45 | 0:56:48 | |
I've never seen such a large group of people come together | 0:56:48 | 0:56:51 | |
in one big team. Everybody's worked so hard. | 0:56:51 | 0:56:54 | |
It's been so friendly. Everybody's dug in for the cause. | 0:56:54 | 0:56:57 | |
Couldn't have asked for any more. | 0:56:57 | 0:56:59 | |
It's been my pleasure. I hope you all really, really enjoy it. | 0:56:59 | 0:57:03 | |
And make some fantastic memories. | 0:57:03 | 0:57:05 | |
Group hug, look, everybody in. Everybody in! Oh! | 0:57:05 | 0:57:08 | |
Thank you. | 0:57:08 | 0:57:10 | |
It's what we asked you to do, to create something where children, | 0:57:10 | 0:57:14 | |
brothers and sisters and the disabled children | 0:57:14 | 0:57:16 | |
could play and be together. You've done it. | 0:57:16 | 0:57:17 | |
You know, it couldn't have been any better. It's perfect. | 0:57:17 | 0:57:20 | |
The experience has been absolutely amazing. | 0:57:23 | 0:57:26 | |
I'm so lucky to have worked with the Dengineers team. | 0:57:26 | 0:57:30 | |
Nell's been heartbroken, losing her brother, | 0:57:30 | 0:57:32 | |
but this has put a positive feel back into her, | 0:57:32 | 0:57:36 | |
and to see her smile has made us smile. | 0:57:36 | 0:57:40 | |
It means more than you guys will ever know. | 0:57:40 | 0:57:43 | |
The Dengineers are part of our hospice family now | 0:57:43 | 0:57:45 | |
and you're all welcome back here any time. | 0:57:45 | 0:57:48 | |
My message to the Dengineers is | 0:57:48 | 0:57:51 | |
thank you so much for making the hospice's dream come true. | 0:57:51 | 0:57:56 | |
There are hundreds of people here and they're all in total agreement | 0:57:56 | 0:58:00 | |
about this incredible space. | 0:58:00 | 0:58:02 | |
ALL: This den is done! | 0:58:02 | 0:58:06 |
