0:00:02 > 0:00:05This programme contains some strong language
0:00:05 > 0:00:07How much would you pay to go on holiday?
0:00:09 > 0:00:13Believe it or not, you can now get away for less than a tenner.
0:00:15 > 0:00:17Just buy a newspaper,
0:00:17 > 0:00:19cut out the vouchers
0:00:19 > 0:00:21and send off your money.
0:00:22 > 0:00:25For that you get a weekend in a caravan.
0:00:27 > 0:00:28Let's have a look.
0:00:28 > 0:00:30EXCITED CHATTER
0:00:31 > 0:00:35Hey! Look at that. An iron too!
0:00:35 > 0:00:38In the last 20 years, almost 40 million Brits have
0:00:38 > 0:00:42been on one of these bargain basement breaks...
0:00:42 > 0:00:44Actually, it is better than my house, to be honest!
0:00:44 > 0:00:46Hello, boys and girls, hello!
0:00:46 > 0:00:47..and when times are hard,
0:00:47 > 0:00:50more and more of us need a cheap chance to escape...
0:00:50 > 0:00:51Two, three, go!
0:00:52 > 0:00:54..whatever our means.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56There's probably about 70p left in my purse.
0:00:56 > 0:00:58Maybe well-off people are well off
0:00:58 > 0:01:01because they know how to be good with money.
0:01:03 > 0:01:06Hi, Sparky, high-five. This is Sparky the rabbit.
0:01:08 > 0:01:09For big business,
0:01:09 > 0:01:12cash-strapped holiday-makers can offer rich pickings.
0:01:12 > 0:01:15You actually physically don't need to leave the park.
0:01:15 > 0:01:16It's all here for you.
0:01:16 > 0:01:19Will £9.50 buy the getaway of your dreams?
0:01:19 > 0:01:20Skeggy!
0:01:20 > 0:01:23Or leave you feeling short-changed?
0:01:23 > 0:01:26It's raining so they've got nothing more to do than
0:01:26 > 0:01:28sit and pick holes in their caravans.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30Not that I'm saying their caravan's tat, but, well...
0:01:38 > 0:01:41In hard-up Britain, the staycation is thriving.
0:01:41 > 0:01:45These days, more and more of us have no choice but to holiday at home.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51Holiday parks are at the forefront of this boom,
0:01:51 > 0:01:54bringing in billions of pounds every year.
0:01:57 > 0:02:00In Skegness, Paul Chapman manages one of the east coast's
0:02:00 > 0:02:03biggest parks - Southview, part of the chain Park Resorts.
0:02:07 > 0:02:10Creating amazing memories is our company vision.
0:02:11 > 0:02:15It all goes back to leaving one of our holiday parks
0:02:15 > 0:02:19and having those memories with you for years that were amazing.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21There are six key values,
0:02:21 > 0:02:23and they're just up on the wall behind me there,
0:02:23 > 0:02:24which feed into everything that we do
0:02:24 > 0:02:26in terms of creating amazing memories.
0:02:26 > 0:02:29That's it. Creating amazing memories. Boom.
0:02:32 > 0:02:34Creating amazing memories is big business.
0:02:34 > 0:02:38The company's annual turnover is £180 million,
0:02:38 > 0:02:41and Paul's park is one of their prize assets.
0:02:42 > 0:02:45Southview is a big park. We've got over 1,200 caravans.
0:02:45 > 0:02:47At any one point during a busy period,
0:02:47 > 0:02:50we can have, potentially, up to 4,000 people on the resort.
0:02:52 > 0:02:55But it's not easy keeping a park this big fully booked.
0:02:55 > 0:02:57Outside the school holidays,
0:02:57 > 0:03:01Paul relies on cut-price bookings from newspaper voucher schemes.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Probably on what we call an off-peak week,
0:03:05 > 0:03:0980% of the caravans can be occupied
0:03:09 > 0:03:11by somebody that's on one of our voucher holidays.
0:03:11 > 0:03:15A caravan sat empty is not earning us as a business any money
0:03:15 > 0:03:16so, you know, we're quite happy
0:03:16 > 0:03:19to have customers on a voucher promotion in a caravan
0:03:19 > 0:03:22and, you know, we're going to earn some money.
0:03:22 > 0:03:27It's May and voucher holiday-makers across the country are setting off.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Morning, girls. Wakey, wakey!
0:03:29 > 0:03:31Up we get.
0:03:31 > 0:03:34For some, it's the only holiday they can afford this year.
0:03:35 > 0:03:40In Southend in Essex, the Pearsons have five children aged three to 11.
0:03:40 > 0:03:42Do you want some breakfast?
0:03:42 > 0:03:44Dad Michael runs his own small business,
0:03:44 > 0:03:47but they struggle to pay for a family break.
0:03:48 > 0:03:51Can't afford to go abroad.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54It's too much money to buy passports and everything so
0:03:54 > 0:03:58we just tend to stick to this country. It's cheaper.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01When the Pearsons discovered voucher holidays a couple of years ago,
0:04:01 > 0:04:02it was the first holiday
0:04:02 > 0:04:05they'd been able to afford for all seven of them.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08We like the fact that we can get a nice, cheap break.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11Cos otherwise we only had one holiday a year, which was with his mum.
0:04:11 > 0:04:13We really enjoy it.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15MUSIC: "Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah" by James Baskett
0:04:15 > 0:04:16For their big family getaway,
0:04:16 > 0:04:20they're treating themselves to a weekend in Great Yarmouth.
0:04:22 > 0:04:24The seaside town is home
0:04:24 > 0:04:27to one of Norfolk's more exotically named holiday parks -
0:04:27 > 0:04:29California Cliffs.
0:04:29 > 0:04:31# Mr Bluebird on my shoulder
0:04:31 > 0:04:34# It's the truth, it's actual... #
0:04:34 > 0:04:37Every Friday, Carl Scamp and his team
0:04:37 > 0:04:39have just a few hours to get the caravans ready.
0:04:39 > 0:04:41# Wonderful feeling. #
0:04:41 > 0:04:47We're two cleaners short and we've got 80 caravans being let today.
0:04:47 > 0:04:49But obviously we've got other families that are departing
0:04:49 > 0:04:54from other caravans so I think, all in all, we're doing about 110,
0:04:54 > 0:04:57I think. Something like that anyway.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00Me and Tracey have cleaned 20-odd caravans in a day before.
0:05:00 > 0:05:02- Ain't we, Trace?- Needs must!
0:05:02 > 0:05:03When needs must.
0:05:05 > 0:05:06Where are we off to next?
0:05:08 > 0:05:11Four walls of aluminium aren't for everyone.
0:05:11 > 0:05:14But, now that money's tight, the humble caravan's becoming
0:05:14 > 0:05:18the holiday of choice for some that never previously dreamed of it.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25The big holidays were always abroad.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28We learned to dive in Fiji and Australia.
0:05:28 > 0:05:31- We were there for four months. It was just...- Lots of wine tasting.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35We really enjoyed the Thai cooking course, didn't we?
0:05:35 > 0:05:37We've been on safari, haven't we? Vietnam was really nice.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40So, yeah, certainly couldn't afford to do anything like that now.
0:05:42 > 0:05:45Can I have a quick look back here?
0:05:45 > 0:05:49In Burton on Trent, Paul and Emma Revell are both vets.
0:05:49 > 0:05:50You can only choose four things.
0:05:50 > 0:05:54Successful professionals who've had to rein in their holiday spending.
0:05:54 > 0:05:56Look at those teeth of yours.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Their first voucher holiday was two years ago
0:05:58 > 0:06:00and they've found that saving money can be fun.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05I find it quite exciting, you know, to get a really good deal,
0:06:05 > 0:06:11to be able to do something fun and good for cheaper than it should be.
0:06:11 > 0:06:13We'll take the pinky ones as well.
0:06:13 > 0:06:17I'm proud that I've saved a lot of money.
0:06:17 > 0:06:20So, for now, the safaris are on hold.
0:06:20 > 0:06:25- I don't think we've told you where we're going. We're going to Skegness!- Skegness.
0:06:25 > 0:06:28Let's go! Come on, let's go. GIRL SHOUTS EXCITEDLY
0:06:35 > 0:06:38Each resort has caravans to cater for every taste and budget.
0:06:39 > 0:06:43From the Platinum, with double glazing and central heating,
0:06:43 > 0:06:46through to Gold, Silver...
0:06:46 > 0:06:49Please be nice and left in a clean condition.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51..or, if you can only afford £9.50...
0:06:51 > 0:06:52Smells a bit fishy!
0:06:52 > 0:06:54..the Bronze.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Perhaps they had kippers for breakfast.
0:06:56 > 0:06:58- I'm just going to spray the bathrooms and stuff.- Yeah.
0:06:58 > 0:07:01I personally wouldn't want to stay in a Bronze
0:07:01 > 0:07:06because obviously they are a bit smaller than Golds and Silvers
0:07:06 > 0:07:08and not of a...
0:07:09 > 0:07:13A high standard. They're just the very basic caravan.
0:07:13 > 0:07:17There's no heating in the bedrooms. You just have a gas fire
0:07:17 > 0:07:18as your heating, which...
0:07:18 > 0:07:21In the winter time these caravans are freezing.
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Right, what's left, just the hoovering?
0:07:23 > 0:07:26£9.50 per person gets you the caravan
0:07:26 > 0:07:29but there are a few extras.
0:07:29 > 0:07:32You also pay a service charge, which, for example, this weekend
0:07:32 > 0:07:35is £22.50, which covers all your utilities -
0:07:35 > 0:07:37so your gas, electricity, water -
0:07:37 > 0:07:41and then you have additional bolt-ons that you can add.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44So if you wanted linen, that's an additional cost.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46At the moment that's £4.50 per person.
0:07:46 > 0:07:49Or you can bring your own and not have the charge.
0:07:51 > 0:07:53You'll get some who may have not done it before
0:07:53 > 0:07:55and they get confused with the service charge.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58So they'll arrive and go, "Oh, I've got no linen. I paid for it."
0:07:58 > 0:08:00You go and look at the booking and they've actually not paid for it
0:08:00 > 0:08:03so they have to come to reception and pay for it.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06So for four people this weekend, with service charge and bed sheets,
0:08:06 > 0:08:08that's £76.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Cheap little break for some families, innit?
0:08:14 > 0:08:16It's not just families.
0:08:16 > 0:08:19Not all 18 to 30s can afford two weeks in Kavos.
0:08:19 > 0:08:21- Where's Emma?- Calling her now.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23In Mildenhall in Suffolk,
0:08:23 > 0:08:2523-year-old Nina and 19-year-old Corine
0:08:25 > 0:08:29both still live on the street they grew up on.
0:08:29 > 0:08:31This town is boring. There is nothing to do.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34The only thing to do is to go out on a Friday and go to work.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36That's about as far as it goes.
0:08:36 > 0:08:40But this weekend, they've decided to escape.
0:08:40 > 0:08:45I've never done a holiday with friends before. Something new.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Get away from this...shithole.
0:08:48 > 0:08:49ALL: # Rolling!
0:08:49 > 0:08:51# Rolling on the river
0:08:51 > 0:08:52# Rolling! #
0:08:52 > 0:08:55They've invited their friends for a weekend away
0:08:55 > 0:08:57from working long hours for low pay.
0:08:59 > 0:09:03'If you wanted to go abroad, half of them couldn't afford it.'
0:09:03 > 0:09:05I don't give a fuck.
0:09:05 > 0:09:07'Cos it's so cheap, everyone can come.'
0:09:09 > 0:09:12It's not quite 100 miles from Mildenhall to Skegness.
0:09:12 > 0:09:14We all need a wee, I think.
0:09:14 > 0:09:16They all give me 40 quid and then
0:09:16 > 0:09:20that included our bedding, gas and electricity and petrol money.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23- Can't beat it, can you, really? - Exactly.
0:09:23 > 0:09:28Play centre worker Nina's just worked 24 days in a row.
0:09:28 > 0:09:29I don't mind working minimum wage
0:09:29 > 0:09:31cos, at the end of the day, it's a job.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33Any job, you take it, whatever it is.
0:09:33 > 0:09:3716 when I left school then never been out of a job since.
0:09:37 > 0:09:40You don't get nowhere in life without money, do you?
0:09:40 > 0:09:43Corine and the others all still live at home with their parents.
0:09:43 > 0:09:46- It's weird being away from home. - Next year, maybe.
0:09:48 > 0:09:50Hello, Mum?
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Are you all right?
0:09:53 > 0:09:55Yes, I'll eat, Mum.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58Love you loads. Bye.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02My mum... My mum just texted me saying, "What's the name of
0:10:02 > 0:10:07"the holiday park you are staying at in case of an emergency?"
0:10:10 > 0:10:12When you still live with Mum and Dad,
0:10:12 > 0:10:15a weekend in a caravan is a chance to play house.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17This is flipping amazing!
0:10:19 > 0:10:22Yeah, we got an iron too!
0:10:22 > 0:10:25Oh, we're fucking in there, mate. Tell ya.
0:10:25 > 0:10:27I thought it was going to be a tiny little...
0:10:27 > 0:10:30You know, we'd all have to squidge past. No, it's really good.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32Actually, it is better than my house, to be honest.
0:10:32 > 0:10:34We're here!
0:10:34 > 0:10:37Although it's cheaper than their previous holidays,
0:10:37 > 0:10:40the Revells are still after a more premier experience.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42Let's have a look.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44He said, "Let's upgrade!"
0:10:44 > 0:10:46That's what you were worried about, I think, wasn't it?
0:10:46 > 0:10:50That they'd just be horrible and old and just not very pleasant.
0:10:50 > 0:10:54I can smell poo! I think it's bird poo.
0:10:56 > 0:10:58Oh, come and have a look!
0:10:58 > 0:11:01They've gone for a Silver caravan.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04The van's wider, you get heating, and it's just nicer.
0:11:04 > 0:11:05The decor's nicer.
0:11:05 > 0:11:08Actually, I've noticed the bathroom's got a towel rail, as well,
0:11:08 > 0:11:11which we've never had before so that should warm it up a little bit.
0:11:13 > 0:11:16But don't worry if you haven't booked your upgrade in advance -
0:11:16 > 0:11:18it's never too late to pay a little extra.
0:11:20 > 0:11:23We always look to upgrade customers wherever possible.
0:11:23 > 0:11:26A lot of customers may decline them beforehand but, actually, when they
0:11:26 > 0:11:29get here and we have a conversation when they're checking in,
0:11:29 > 0:11:33I think they have that impulsive, "Oh, yeah, we can have an upgrade
0:11:33 > 0:11:35"and it's only going to be £50."
0:11:35 > 0:11:37We do do a lot of money from upgrading.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39It's all money for us as a business.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42The upgrade was £55 to Silver.
0:11:42 > 0:11:44There weren't any Golds available,
0:11:44 > 0:11:47cos I'm sure I will have been asked to ask
0:11:47 > 0:11:48how much that would have been.
0:11:48 > 0:11:50I'm just calling reception
0:11:50 > 0:11:53cos it doesn't seem that our travel cot's here.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57OK, 12, 13 and 17 equal 47. 30.
0:11:57 > 0:12:006pm. Check-in is nearly closed.
0:12:00 > 0:12:02We're nearly there.
0:12:02 > 0:12:05Where's number seven? Where's number seven? Where's number seven?
0:12:05 > 0:12:08There's no numbers!
0:12:08 > 0:12:10But here come some late arrivals.
0:12:10 > 0:12:13They haven't got names. Oh, Bittern. Look, look, look.
0:12:13 > 0:12:14Bittern where?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16THEY LAUGH
0:12:16 > 0:12:18Where's number seven, then?
0:12:18 > 0:12:21Which one? Where is it, then? That one, there?
0:12:21 > 0:12:24A caravan originally booked for a romantic getaway.
0:12:24 > 0:12:26Reserving judgement.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29But after splitting with her boyfriend,
0:12:29 > 0:12:32Sam only found a replacement at the last minute - Claire.
0:12:34 > 0:12:36Oh, my lord.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40I'd just also split up with my boyfriend so I thought,
0:12:40 > 0:12:44"Well, this is a chance for us to have a little girly weekend."
0:12:44 > 0:12:48- Is this my bed, then?- Well, you're not kipping in with me, girl.
0:12:48 > 0:12:51For the two single mums, a weekend away is a rare treat.
0:12:51 > 0:12:53These are actually quite narrow, really, aren't they?
0:12:53 > 0:12:57To be honest, some weekends I don't leave the house.
0:12:57 > 0:12:59Seriously, I finish work at two on the Friday,
0:12:59 > 0:13:01go and do a bit of shopping and spend the whole week in
0:13:01 > 0:13:03cos I don't want to ring anybody and disturb their plans
0:13:03 > 0:13:06and make them feel that, "Oh, I should spend time with Sam."
0:13:06 > 0:13:08- Or feel sorry for you or something, yeah.- Yeah.
0:13:08 > 0:13:10- Here's our shower.- Clean?
0:13:10 > 0:13:12It's wet still so they've just cleaned it. It's fine.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15I mean, a caravan holiday wouldn't be your first choice, would it?
0:13:15 > 0:13:17- I wouldn't have thought so, no. - For a girly weekend?- No.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22It would have to be abroad and in the sun and by the beach, really.
0:13:22 > 0:13:25- I'm so glad you've got that and I've got the double.- There's a heater.
0:13:25 > 0:13:28Put that on. You'll want to warm that up, I think.
0:13:30 > 0:13:31This will sound really stupid.
0:13:31 > 0:13:34As much as I don't like nets, there's no nets.
0:13:34 > 0:13:37- No. A bit open.- You walk out the toilet kind of straight... Oh, no.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40I just think there should be nets or blinds or something.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43That's all right, isn't it?
0:13:43 > 0:13:49Clean, basic. Just what you need, really, for a couple of nights away.
0:13:54 > 0:13:58With everyone in their caravans, the holiday can begin.
0:13:58 > 0:14:01- Another day done, Trace.- Yeah.
0:14:01 > 0:14:04'We are about creating amazing memories here.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06'That is what we do and we all try our hardest
0:14:06 > 0:14:09'to create those amazing memories.'
0:14:10 > 0:14:12You arrive here and don't have to
0:14:12 > 0:14:15worry about anything what's going on in the real world.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18It's just that little moment where you can get away from
0:14:18 > 0:14:22the grind of everyday life, if you like, and they don't start thinking
0:14:22 > 0:14:25about the real world until they drive out the gates again
0:14:25 > 0:14:26when they're going home.
0:14:26 > 0:14:30Being part of that is just absolutely phenomenal. Makes it all worthwhile.
0:14:33 > 0:14:37Around two thirds of Paul's punters are on a break with family.
0:14:37 > 0:14:39For the Pearsons,
0:14:39 > 0:14:42their only family holiday of the year is an invaluable getaway.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46But when you've got five kids, it's hard to escape financial reality.
0:14:47 > 0:14:50It's not something I consciously think,
0:14:50 > 0:14:52"A child costs X amount,"
0:14:52 > 0:14:55but you do have to be wary with a fair few children -
0:14:55 > 0:14:57shopping, clothes...
0:14:57 > 0:14:59Are you going to eat like a big boy?
0:14:59 > 0:15:01- Birthdays.- Christmas-time, obviously.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03Parties, if we go on holiday...
0:15:03 > 0:15:06Yes, definitely going on holiday is quite a large cost.
0:15:07 > 0:15:10The Pearsons have brought £70 worth of food
0:15:10 > 0:15:13to last all seven of them the whole weekend.
0:15:13 > 0:15:16We tend to go shopping before we get there
0:15:16 > 0:15:19so we don't have to buy stuff on site because it's more expensive.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21We tend to do easy stuff as well
0:15:21 > 0:15:24so I don't have to spend the whole day cooking,
0:15:24 > 0:15:26so the kids tend to get a lot more junk food, don't they?
0:15:26 > 0:15:27Yes, while we're away.
0:15:27 > 0:15:30Perhaps that's why they enjoy it more, cos they're all buzzing!
0:15:30 > 0:15:35They've got £50 spending money for the rest of weekend.
0:15:36 > 0:15:4011-year-old Bethany is aware just how precious this holiday is.
0:15:40 > 0:15:44It's what mum and dad deserve because they do so much for us,
0:15:44 > 0:15:50spending all their time on cooking food for us and stuff like that.
0:15:50 > 0:15:53And they don't treat themselves often at all.
0:15:55 > 0:16:00I wish I could stay for a bit longer, but then it would cost more.
0:16:02 > 0:16:05But not everyone's getting into the swing of things.
0:16:05 > 0:16:09For doctor's receptionist Sam and pharmacy dispenser Claire,
0:16:09 > 0:16:12this could be the only holiday they get all year.
0:16:12 > 0:16:14It looks a bit tired.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17Yeah, looking at the curtains and the tie-backs.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22A little bit tired but, again, you're not paying a fortune, are you?
0:16:22 > 0:16:25That's not the point, though, is it? If you went to a B&B...
0:16:25 > 0:16:28I'm not saying five-star luxury, but they've come round
0:16:28 > 0:16:31and cleaned the place, so did you not notice the curtain?
0:16:31 > 0:16:33There is a curtain missing.
0:16:33 > 0:16:38- And net curtains, that's my one... - Gripe.- Yeah. Sorry.
0:16:38 > 0:16:41Can you hear the rain?
0:16:41 > 0:16:43- Oh, God. - It's going to rain all weekend.
0:16:46 > 0:16:49But holiday parks make money come rain or shine.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54Although last year was one of the wettest on record,
0:16:54 > 0:16:56Park Resorts' business continued to grow.
0:16:58 > 0:17:00Each site is designed
0:17:00 > 0:17:02so you can spend a little here and a little there.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Slightly smaller scale to what goes on in Vegas,
0:17:07 > 0:17:09but it is a big part of our business.
0:17:09 > 0:17:12This is where, when people are on holiday, hopefully they'll spend money.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Creating amazing memories in the Lakeview Showbar.
0:17:17 > 0:17:20It's the hub, the heart of the park, where everything happens, all the entertainment.
0:17:20 > 0:17:22Having drinks, watching the cabaret.
0:17:22 > 0:17:24It's a huge part of the holiday experience.
0:17:24 > 0:17:26If you're on a voucher holiday, as well,
0:17:26 > 0:17:30you may have saved up that extra bit of money and you're going to want to spend it.
0:17:30 > 0:17:32From a holiday guest point of view,
0:17:32 > 0:17:35there is everything on the park that you need.
0:17:35 > 0:17:37You physically don't need to leave the park - it's all here for you.
0:17:39 > 0:17:43And of course, every successful business has a brand ambassador.
0:17:43 > 0:17:46Hi, Sparky! High-five!
0:17:46 > 0:17:47This is Sparky the rabbit.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49He's responsible for creating amazing memories
0:17:49 > 0:17:53for all the little boys and girls, aren't you, Sparky?
0:17:53 > 0:17:55The boys and girls can meet Sparky in person
0:17:55 > 0:17:59at every one of the 39 resorts, which also sell his merchandise.
0:18:01 > 0:18:06And more money comes in from sales of the £4.50 weekend fun pass,
0:18:06 > 0:18:08which gets you into the on-site facilities...
0:18:08 > 0:18:11Hello, boys and girls, hello!
0:18:11 > 0:18:13..to see Sparky and friends perform their nightly show.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16- One, two, three... CHILDREN:- Sparky!
0:18:16 > 0:18:18Here's Sparky!
0:18:18 > 0:18:20# SKC, Sparky's Krew Club
0:18:20 > 0:18:23# SKC, Sparky's Krew Club
0:18:23 > 0:18:25# SKC... #
0:18:25 > 0:18:27For the Pearsons, it's the perfect way
0:18:27 > 0:18:29to keep all five kids entertained for an evening.
0:18:35 > 0:18:38But, even on a night out with Sparky,
0:18:38 > 0:18:39they're watching every penny.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45We cheated and brought in drinks from Aldi's before we came here
0:18:45 > 0:18:49and saved some money cos the Cokes are £2.25,
0:18:49 > 0:18:51so I know exactly how much I've saved,
0:18:51 > 0:18:54cos these are 99p for ten of them.
0:18:54 > 0:18:58So I have saved...£10.25.
0:18:58 > 0:19:00I've got five kids and I don't work,
0:19:00 > 0:19:02so I'm quite used to having a budget.
0:19:04 > 0:19:06Night-night.
0:19:06 > 0:19:08Sleep tight.
0:19:08 > 0:19:11'It's lovely to see the children when you're on holiday.
0:19:11 > 0:19:16'It's magical seeing them just enjoy themselves without any worries.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19'Given half a chance, Nicole would'
0:19:19 > 0:19:23quite happily have more children, but I think we've done our bit
0:19:23 > 0:19:27and I don't think we could financially support any more.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31- See you in the morning. - Don't let the bed bugs bite!- I won't.
0:19:31 > 0:19:34MUSIC: "Waiting All Night" by Rudimental
0:19:34 > 0:19:37Corine and her friends are filling up with cheap booze
0:19:37 > 0:19:38before they hit the bar.
0:19:38 > 0:19:41Ching, ching, ching!
0:19:41 > 0:19:43'The day I left school.
0:19:43 > 0:19:44'That's when it changes'
0:19:44 > 0:19:47because you have to think about responsibilities -
0:19:47 > 0:19:50college, uni, deciding where you're going to go in life.
0:19:50 > 0:19:55Money, the value of money, jobs, careers, everything.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I like it, though. I wouldn't change it for the world.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02One, two, three, go!
0:20:02 > 0:20:04I would. I'd love to go back to school.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07'At the minute, I earn enough for myself,
0:20:07 > 0:20:10'but I couldn't move out of my house.'
0:20:10 > 0:20:12I just don't earn enough.
0:20:12 > 0:20:15I love it, I love it here - proper homely. It's a homely feel.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18ALL: # And I would walk 500 miles
0:20:18 > 0:20:22# And I would walk 500 more... #
0:20:22 > 0:20:24They're hardly 500 miles from home,
0:20:24 > 0:20:27but it's far enough for a first real taste of independence.
0:20:29 > 0:20:33What did you have, 9.50 holiday? Caravan. Brilliant, ain't it?
0:20:33 > 0:20:35- Yes!- Thank you! Whoo!
0:20:35 > 0:20:37Fucking awesome!
0:20:37 > 0:20:39Whoo!
0:20:39 > 0:20:40So homesick.
0:20:42 > 0:20:45I didn't think I would be, but I am.
0:20:45 > 0:20:48- I am not drunk!- Not drunk?- I am a little bit drunk, a little bit.
0:20:48 > 0:20:51Just being away from your family.
0:20:51 > 0:20:54It's stupid cos it's not even been a day.
0:20:54 > 0:20:58- We know it, Skeggy, whoo! - We love it!
0:20:58 > 0:21:01Honest to God, it feels like I'm abroad!
0:21:01 > 0:21:03DISTANT CHEERING
0:21:14 > 0:21:16However cheap or expensive your holiday is,
0:21:16 > 0:21:19one thing you can't guarantee is the weather.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25And when it's your job to create amazing memories,
0:21:25 > 0:21:27the last thing you need is rain.
0:21:29 > 0:21:31Generally when it's raining...
0:21:33 > 0:21:36..it cannot be a good holiday start for people.
0:21:36 > 0:21:41They get less... We get more unhappy people when it's raining than when it's sunny, believe it or not.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Can't help the weather.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49I know. You know what the trouble is with that, don't you?
0:21:49 > 0:21:51When they're stuck in, all they do is sit in there
0:21:51 > 0:21:53- and start looking for things. - Yeah, they do.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56If they see a cobweb round a light or something, they're like,
0:21:56 > 0:21:59- "If that's here, what else is in here?"- And that's when they start looking.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Yeah, cos it's raining so they've got nothing more to do than sit
0:22:02 > 0:22:04and pick holes in their caravans.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07But so far, touch wood, we've had nobody complain about anything.
0:22:08 > 0:22:12Do you know, I'm so hungry. That grill is so poxy, isn't it?
0:22:12 > 0:22:15It might be worthwhile mentioning that to the guy -
0:22:15 > 0:22:20- the fact that the grill does not... - For six people, really? No.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22They'll pick things like...
0:22:22 > 0:22:25the upholstery's dirty, the sofa's dirty,
0:22:25 > 0:22:27the high dusting's not been done,
0:22:27 > 0:22:30or they moan because they haven't got nets in the caravan
0:22:30 > 0:22:32so it feels like being in a fish bowl.
0:22:32 > 0:22:37Single mums Sam and Claire reported their missing curtain yesterday,
0:22:37 > 0:22:39but so far nothing's been done.
0:22:39 > 0:22:42It is just a Bronze, but is this one of those...
0:22:42 > 0:22:45"It's a Sun holiday, so just give 'em any old tat"?
0:22:45 > 0:22:48Not that I am saying their caravan's tat, but...
0:22:48 > 0:22:50Or maybe they are just hoping that you will upgrade,
0:22:50 > 0:22:53pay the extra and upgrade from a Bronze.
0:22:53 > 0:22:56We aim to satisfy all of our customers' needs
0:22:56 > 0:23:01because obviously the customer is our heart and soul, you know.
0:23:01 > 0:23:03Anything that does go wrong on park,
0:23:03 > 0:23:06we all do evaluate, learn and improve by it.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08We are all obviously one team, one goal.
0:23:08 > 0:23:12We don't have issues here, we have problems that we resolve.
0:23:14 > 0:23:16Something like that.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19- 'Housekeeping receiving?' - Yeah, go ahead.
0:23:19 > 0:23:24'Van 35, the telly's not working, nothing at all, it's totally dead.
0:23:24 > 0:23:28'Have we got a telly we can swap...?'
0:23:28 > 0:23:31With thousands of customers on site, it takes a lot of hard work
0:23:31 > 0:23:33to make sure they're all happy campers.
0:23:33 > 0:23:35Did you upgrade? Because it's...
0:23:35 > 0:23:37Your accommodation that you have booked
0:23:37 > 0:23:39is a Bronze three-bedroom caravan.
0:23:39 > 0:23:43- Hello, good morning. Everything OK? - Yeah.
0:23:43 > 0:23:45It's only Silver and Gold that have multi-room heating.
0:23:46 > 0:23:51From March to October, Paul's park employs 165 members of staff.
0:23:52 > 0:23:55Behind the scenes, loads goes on on a holiday park.
0:23:55 > 0:23:59Hello! How are we doing? Busy?
0:23:59 > 0:24:02It's just about making sure that every department on the park
0:24:02 > 0:24:03is running to peak efficiency.
0:24:03 > 0:24:05We've also got a takeaway menu
0:24:05 > 0:24:07and some two-for-one meal deals that are available.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09Everything all right?
0:24:09 > 0:24:11'A lot of walking around.
0:24:11 > 0:24:16'Or driving around. And a lot of talking to people.'
0:24:16 > 0:24:19Making sure we can deliver on what we say we are going to deliver on.
0:24:22 > 0:24:23KNOCK AT DOOR
0:24:23 > 0:24:24- Good morning!- Hiya!
0:24:24 > 0:24:29It's just a courtesy call to make sure everything's all right with your accommodation.
0:24:29 > 0:24:31- Yeah.- Everything's good?
0:24:31 > 0:24:35We did mention the curtains, didn't we, yesterday? Yeah.
0:24:35 > 0:24:36There's a curtain missing.
0:24:36 > 0:24:39- Why did nothing get done about it?- We just...
0:24:40 > 0:24:43Leave it with me - I'll see what I can sort out
0:24:43 > 0:24:46- for you for that window. - OK, no worries.- Thanks, but yeah.
0:24:46 > 0:24:47That's OK. I didn't realise that was down.
0:24:47 > 0:24:51No-one had told me that was like that, otherwise that would have been reported.
0:24:53 > 0:24:55But honestly, why wasn't that...?
0:24:55 > 0:24:59Because I was trying to get all the... I totally agree with you.
0:24:59 > 0:25:03It was reported yesterday...
0:25:03 > 0:25:04That's why I have to say.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08- Very pleasant staff, but it's just...- Yeah, he's nice, isn't he?
0:25:09 > 0:25:12I was still pissed when I got home. I passed out!
0:25:12 > 0:25:14I'm still pissed this morning!
0:25:14 > 0:25:16The morning after the night before.
0:25:16 > 0:25:22Corine's finding caravanning isn't quite the same as being at home.
0:25:22 > 0:25:23It's just cos you're so used
0:25:23 > 0:25:26to your parents just being around the corner.
0:25:26 > 0:25:30Just running down the stairs to your mum or whatever, but here you can't.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33It's like you have to ring them and just... I don't know.
0:25:33 > 0:25:36Obviously, the alcohol didn't help either!
0:25:36 > 0:25:39But it just makes you feel really...alone,
0:25:39 > 0:25:41if that's the right way to put it.
0:25:44 > 0:25:47- Hiya.- Hello, people!
0:25:47 > 0:25:49We've brought some curtains for you!
0:25:49 > 0:25:51Oh, thank you!
0:25:51 > 0:25:52- Thank you!- That was quick!
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Yeah, I'm really sorry it wasn't done yesterday.
0:25:55 > 0:25:56- That's OK.- It should have been.
0:25:56 > 0:25:59We've only got brown curtains, I'm afraid.
0:25:59 > 0:26:01Do you do this often, then?
0:26:01 > 0:26:05No. This was supposed to be a romantic weekend for two on the cheap
0:26:05 > 0:26:09- and that kind of went tits up. - Didn't end up that way.- No.
0:26:09 > 0:26:12Do you like the British holiday?
0:26:12 > 0:26:14- No.- No?- Not if I'm honest.
0:26:14 > 0:26:17- Right, they're all done for you anyway.- Thanks for that.
0:26:17 > 0:26:20- Any more issues...- They're actually nicer!- They are, aren't they?
0:26:20 > 0:26:23- OK, cheers, thanks!- Bye-bye!
0:26:25 > 0:26:29The issue's resolved, the curtains are up.
0:26:29 > 0:26:31The curtains are up.
0:26:32 > 0:26:35- So we've done it.- And they're happy.
0:26:35 > 0:26:38- You'll think this is awful. - That's really picky! - The tie-backs don't match!
0:26:38 > 0:26:44- Of course they don't cos they're the tie-backs to the other curtains. - Yes, I know, but...- It's a contrast.
0:26:44 > 0:26:46And no net curtains.
0:26:48 > 0:26:51In the off-peak season, the parks take the most money at the weekends
0:26:51 > 0:26:54and their star attraction's always on hand to help.
0:26:54 > 0:26:57# Na-na na-na na na... #
0:26:59 > 0:27:03Even on Sparky's birthday, there's no such thing as a free lunch.
0:27:03 > 0:27:07Admission to this party isn't included in the weekend fun pass.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09# Sparky's Krew Club... #
0:27:09 > 0:27:11For the Pearsons, it's the one big treat
0:27:11 > 0:27:13they can afford to give the kids this weekend.
0:27:13 > 0:27:18Well done! Well done! How good were they, Sparky?!
0:27:18 > 0:27:21Well, it's £20 for the kids to meet Sparky and have food
0:27:21 > 0:27:24and get a goody bag
0:27:24 > 0:27:27and that's their treat for the holiday from us.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29They're on such a tight budget,
0:27:29 > 0:27:31there's not enough for any extra treats.
0:27:31 > 0:27:34We're selling key rings and fridge magnets and pens...
0:27:34 > 0:27:38We can't give them things whenever they want it.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40If they're told no, it means no and they can't have it.
0:27:40 > 0:27:42There's no more pizza!
0:27:42 > 0:27:45You can't buy their love.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47You see people throwing money at kids
0:27:47 > 0:27:50- and they don't seem to appreciate it, do they?- No.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53Ours appreciate everything they get, don't they?
0:27:53 > 0:27:54Hopefully.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59I know it sounds a bit selfish,
0:27:59 > 0:28:03but I wouldn't want another brother or sister
0:28:03 > 0:28:07because I don't think we'd cope with that many
0:28:07 > 0:28:10and it would be a struggle, I think.
0:28:10 > 0:28:14Big smiles! That's what I like to see!
0:28:19 > 0:28:22But pizza and chips with Sparky isn't for everyone.
0:28:25 > 0:28:28The Revells are getting ready for a kids' day out
0:28:28 > 0:28:31with a packed lunch of cheese and ham wraps.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34We've always eaten a wide variety of foods.
0:28:34 > 0:28:36I think from our travelling, we eat a lot of curries,
0:28:36 > 0:28:39tagines, things like that, so we've always just offered it to the girls
0:28:39 > 0:28:41and one of their favourite dishes is lamb tagine.
0:28:41 > 0:28:47- Yeah, Isabella loves olives and blue cheeses.- And I like smelly cheese!
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Yeah, I've got the changing bag, food bag...
0:28:53 > 0:28:56Jasmine, are you going to get in your car seat?
0:28:56 > 0:28:57For their main holiday treat,
0:28:57 > 0:28:59the Revells are leaving the resort behind
0:28:59 > 0:29:02and heading off to spend their money elsewhere.
0:29:02 > 0:29:03Let's go!
0:29:07 > 0:29:10It may not be a safari in Kenya
0:29:10 > 0:29:14but in Skegness, they've found the next best thing.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17- Two adults. We've got one of these vouchers.- Right.
0:29:17 > 0:29:22They've even got a voucher, so that one of the kids gets in for free.
0:29:22 > 0:29:24Thank you. Your pin number for 15.60, please.
0:29:24 > 0:29:26'The recession has tightened our belts
0:29:26 > 0:29:29'and made us think more about what we are spending.
0:29:29 > 0:29:31'Do we really need this? Can we live without it?'
0:29:31 > 0:29:34Thank you. Wow! What's that?
0:29:34 > 0:29:36'We don't spend so much on ourselves.'
0:29:36 > 0:29:39We tend to shop a lot cheaper now and have cheapish breaks.
0:29:39 > 0:29:41- Hello!- Hello!
0:29:41 > 0:29:44Isabella, no, please! Get down! You're showing Jasmine bad habits.
0:29:44 > 0:29:48You're not allowed up there. Don't, you'll make her cry. Take that.
0:29:50 > 0:29:52'It's an attitude thing, though, as well,
0:29:52 > 0:29:56'cos I'm a really positive person, so I think I'm not...'
0:29:56 > 0:30:00I'm not ridiculously scared that the future's going to be hideous.
0:30:03 > 0:30:05If you do limit what you're spending now,
0:30:05 > 0:30:08then you needn't get into big trouble, hopefully,
0:30:08 > 0:30:09and stuff like that, so...
0:30:09 > 0:30:11Yeah.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13Penguin time now. Where are the penguins?
0:30:13 > 0:30:15Shall we get you a sandwich?
0:30:15 > 0:30:18Do you want a sandwich first?
0:30:19 > 0:30:22Skegness doesn't just cater for those who like a little safari.
0:30:24 > 0:30:26It's also got an answer to Las Vegas.
0:30:28 > 0:30:30Locals call it "Skeg Vegas".
0:30:34 > 0:30:37For Nina, Corine and friends, it's a chance to forget about work
0:30:37 > 0:30:39and spend some hard-earned cash.
0:30:40 > 0:30:44I don't gamble if I'm at home or in the bookie's or anything,
0:30:44 > 0:30:45it's only when I come away.
0:30:49 > 0:30:52'It kind of sucks cos it's going to take me a good couple of years
0:30:52 > 0:30:54'just to get a full-time job.
0:30:54 > 0:30:58'It'll be hard. There's no jobs available. None.'
0:30:58 > 0:31:00I think it's just going to get worse.
0:31:00 > 0:31:03I do, I think this whole country's just going down a hole.
0:31:04 > 0:31:09Spend it while I've got it and then once it's gone, it's gone,
0:31:09 > 0:31:11but at the moment it's going.
0:31:14 > 0:31:16It's Saturday night.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19The parks are ready for a spending spree.
0:31:19 > 0:31:21- 49.30.- There you go, mate.
0:31:21 > 0:31:23MUSIC: "Macarena" by Los Del Rio
0:31:23 > 0:31:25And there's entertainment to cater to every market.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30Cheers, to the last night of our holidays.
0:31:30 > 0:31:32But for single mums Sam and Claire,
0:31:32 > 0:31:35Saturday night, like the rest of their holiday...
0:31:35 > 0:31:37Cos it was going to be me and Phil...
0:31:37 > 0:31:39..is so far proving to be a low-key affair.
0:31:39 > 0:31:43I didn't think anyone was going to want to come away with me.
0:31:43 > 0:31:45You know, I just thought... Stuck in a caravan with someone.
0:31:45 > 0:31:48- It's not exactly glamorous, is it? - Well, no...
0:31:48 > 0:31:51But... God, well, I'm glad you've enjoyed yourself anyway.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54Yeah, well, no, thank you, it's been...
0:31:54 > 0:31:55SHE SIGHS
0:31:55 > 0:31:57Yeah.
0:31:58 > 0:32:01They haven't sampled the on-site entertainment,
0:32:01 > 0:32:03but the promise of a few laughs is enough to tempt them out.
0:32:03 > 0:32:06What's the entertainment going to be like, do you reckon?
0:32:06 > 0:32:09- It's mostly comedy.- I have to warn you, if it's crap, I won't laugh!
0:32:09 > 0:32:12But while we're here, comedy, we'll give it a go.
0:32:12 > 0:32:14- I could never go to one of these bars and play stupid...- No, no.
0:32:14 > 0:32:17I'm cheap, all right? I'm cheap!
0:32:17 > 0:32:19Oh, lordy!
0:32:19 > 0:32:22- I've no idea where it is. - It's down here.
0:32:22 > 0:32:25- LOUD MUSIC PLAYS - That's not a comedian, is it?
0:32:25 > 0:32:28That's music! That's not a comedian!
0:32:31 > 0:32:34- That's not a comedian. - Has the comedian been on?
0:32:34 > 0:32:38- Is there a comedian, or what is it? - Just what's on now.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41- Oh, right, so no comedians?- No. - There's no comedians.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43# My life
0:32:43 > 0:32:44# Would suck
0:32:44 > 0:32:46# Without you... #
0:32:46 > 0:32:48- Really?- Yeah.
0:32:51 > 0:32:53We've been here for, what, 15 minutes?
0:32:53 > 0:32:56And I think that might be enough for me and Sam.
0:33:04 > 0:33:08- Urgh!- They gave us a free pizza!
0:33:08 > 0:33:12Nina, Corine and friends are staying in and saving some money.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15- How much was it altogether? - 16.70 for all of it.
0:33:15 > 0:33:18- How much was mine, the donner kebab?- 3.90.- £3.90?
0:33:18 > 0:33:20That's a fucking bargain.
0:33:20 > 0:33:22- Large one is 4.80.- That is cheap.
0:33:26 > 0:33:29- What do you want, toast or crumpets? - Crumpets, please.
0:33:29 > 0:33:34The Pearsons are also eating in. The caravan cupboard is almost bare.
0:33:34 > 0:33:37We spent £4.50 on our drinks tonight
0:33:37 > 0:33:41and we spent £6 on a photo of Sparky and the kids.
0:33:42 > 0:33:45I think there's probably about 70p left in my purse.
0:33:45 > 0:33:48Your one was the one that was chewed!
0:33:48 > 0:33:52- We're not going to drink all these, are we?- Yeah!
0:33:53 > 0:33:55Still no sign of a comedian,
0:33:55 > 0:33:58but Sam and Claire have decided to go for one last splurge.
0:34:02 > 0:34:07No, we don't need men! No, it's a man-free zone, we don't need men.
0:34:07 > 0:34:09# Gangnam style
0:34:13 > 0:34:15# Gangnam style
0:34:20 > 0:34:22# Hey, sexy lady... #
0:34:39 > 0:34:42It was quite good it wasn't a comedian, cos when there's a comedian...
0:34:42 > 0:34:45- Oh! - SHE GIGGLES
0:34:46 > 0:34:48Oh, my God!
0:34:52 > 0:34:55That just looks shite. Sorry, I know I'm back to the curtains, but...
0:35:02 > 0:35:04It's time to go home.
0:35:05 > 0:35:08That's our holiday finished.
0:35:08 > 0:35:11And thoughts are turning to real life.
0:35:11 > 0:35:13I'm on 12-hour days when I go back.
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Maybe we should stay a bit longer. Can't face the real world.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19This was a whole bottle. We've only got about there.
0:35:20 > 0:35:24In total, the weekend's cost the Pearsons £236.
0:35:24 > 0:35:26So has it all been worth it?
0:35:27 > 0:35:29Yeah, I think it's been great value.
0:35:29 > 0:35:31The kids have been entertained all the time
0:35:31 > 0:35:35and there's been stuff for them to do, so I think it's brilliant value.
0:35:35 > 0:35:38Cos this holiday's more about the kids than anything else, so...
0:35:38 > 0:35:40It's been really cool.
0:35:40 > 0:35:44I've spent about £100, you've spent £100, you've probably spent about...
0:35:44 > 0:35:47- And I'm left, in my purse, with 1p. - I've still got... - Spent all of it, yeah.
0:35:47 > 0:35:53310? £310, I think, for the whole weekend.
0:35:53 > 0:35:57So, it's actually been one of our more cost-effective holidays.
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Maybe well-off people are well off
0:35:59 > 0:36:02because they know how to be good with money.
0:36:02 > 0:36:06It looks like the business of creating amazing memories
0:36:06 > 0:36:07is going to keep growing.
0:36:10 > 0:36:13There are already two million voucher holidays
0:36:13 > 0:36:15booked in for this year.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17We'll always do voucher holidays -
0:36:17 > 0:36:20it just doesn't make sense that we wouldn't.
0:36:20 > 0:36:22It's a great way for us to earn money
0:36:22 > 0:36:26and I just see the future getting bigger and bigger and bigger.
0:36:28 > 0:36:32But many of us still dream of something a little more exotic.
0:36:32 > 0:36:35My dream holiday would be definitely in Magaluf.
0:36:35 > 0:36:40Mind you, my first holiday away with just friends was probably good...
0:36:40 > 0:36:43Best to be here than over there.
0:36:43 > 0:36:46Yeah. Cos if I got that homesick where I wanted to go home...
0:36:46 > 0:36:48- At least you know it's a drive home. - Yeah.
0:36:49 > 0:36:53Kenya. I'd love to go to Kenya. That would be my dream holiday.
0:36:53 > 0:36:57Save enough pennies, or win one, that would be absolutely fantastic.
0:36:57 > 0:36:59- Oh, no, you'll be paying! - I'll be paying!
0:36:59 > 0:37:02My preconceptions of this type of holiday have definitely been...
0:37:02 > 0:37:03Have changed.
0:37:03 > 0:37:06One, two, three...wheee!
0:37:06 > 0:37:10But we would love to go back abroad and start taking holidays there again a bit more.
0:37:13 > 0:37:16I'd definitely do it again.
0:37:16 > 0:37:18No, I'm just thinking... I'm trying to think...
0:37:21 > 0:37:25- If we plan it, it might not be the same next time.- No.
0:37:25 > 0:37:29- Cos we've done it.- Probably pay the extra to upgrade here.
0:37:29 > 0:37:34- But what do you get for the upgrade? - Curtains that match!- What...?- Sorry!
0:37:34 > 0:37:36Oh, you stupid slag!
0:37:36 > 0:37:40Really excited to go home! Really excited! I've missed my mum.
0:37:43 > 0:37:45Bye!
0:37:46 > 0:37:49ALL: Bye!
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Least you didn't smash anything, or get arrested!
0:37:57 > 0:37:59Bit tired, though.
0:37:59 > 0:38:02More tired after the holiday than I was before it started!
0:38:06 > 0:38:07Believe it or not,
0:38:07 > 0:38:11I actually went to college to do an air cabin crew course.
0:38:11 > 0:38:14I actually wanted to be a policewoman.
0:38:14 > 0:38:17"Your exits are here, here and here!" Yeah.
0:38:17 > 0:38:19"Please follow the white lines!"
0:38:22 > 0:38:23Another one done.
