0:00:02 > 0:00:05This programme contains some strong language
0:00:05 > 0:00:07Show me some nipples!
0:00:07 > 0:00:11Let loose with your mates in the ski and party capitals of Europe.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16- Join in the action on the piste. - I've never drunk so much in my life!
0:00:16 > 0:00:18There's freedom...
0:00:18 > 0:00:21I'm having such a good time, I just don't want to go home.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23..temptation...
0:00:23 > 0:00:25and excess.
0:00:28 > 0:00:33But what the kids don't know is their parents are coming too...
0:00:33 > 0:00:34- Yeah, let's go.- You ready?
0:00:34 > 0:00:37- ..secretly spying... - I'm going to wee my pants.
0:00:37 > 0:00:39It's too much for me to take on as a mother.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43..to see if their little ones can stand on their own two feet.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46- LAUGHTER - Jesus Christ!
0:00:46 > 0:00:48Will the parents like what they see...
0:00:48 > 0:00:50That is not what I expect of my son.
0:00:50 > 0:00:54..as their kids get the shock of their lives?
0:00:54 > 0:00:56Oh my gosh!
0:00:56 > 0:00:59My granny's here.
0:01:03 > 0:01:04- Coming up...- Yes!
0:01:04 > 0:01:09Two very different boys head to the winter party resort of Val d'Isere.
0:01:09 > 0:01:14Cocksure Chase leaves his strict single mum behind
0:01:14 > 0:01:18for an irresponsible week on and off the piste.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22And self-conscious 20-year-old Ben...
0:01:22 > 0:01:24- Do you think I look cool?- No.
0:01:24 > 0:01:26..says goodbye to his laidback dad.
0:01:26 > 0:01:28We're like mates, not father and son.
0:01:28 > 0:01:30..for an emotional week in the Alps.
0:01:30 > 0:01:32Oh!
0:01:32 > 0:01:35But will these two very different parents cope with what they see...
0:01:35 > 0:01:37- No!- Half a bottle.
0:01:37 > 0:01:39..when they secretly watch their kids...
0:01:39 > 0:01:41WOMAN GASPS
0:01:41 > 0:01:44..and give Ben and Chase the shock of their lives?
0:01:44 > 0:01:46Oh my gosh!
0:01:56 > 0:02:00Looking forward to his first ever lads holiday with his mates,
0:02:00 > 0:02:04meet 20-year-old, uber-confident, Chase from Purley, South London.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06I've got a couple of nicknames in Croydon.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Yummy, Yummy Chocolate Man or Fresh Prince of Croydon,
0:02:09 > 0:02:14because as you can see, my hair's quite long on top and I'm handsome like Will Smith.
0:02:16 > 0:02:20Chase lives at home with his two sisters, older brother and mum, Sharon,
0:02:20 > 0:02:24who, as a single mum, has had to be firm with all of her kids.
0:02:24 > 0:02:26I'm a strict mother, I've had to be.
0:02:26 > 0:02:30I was 27 with four, all under the age of four.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34- Chase, pick this up.- I ain't picking it up.- Chase, pick it up.
0:02:34 > 0:02:37- You're closer to it. You're closer.- Chase, pick it up.
0:02:37 > 0:02:41If I ever ask my mum to do me something, she'll laugh in my face.
0:02:41 > 0:02:42I get treated like a slave!
0:02:42 > 0:02:45I'm not really a mate's mother, as such.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Do I expect respect from my kids? Erm, yeah.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52And from what I've seen, I am getting it.
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Despite keeping Chase in line at home,
0:02:57 > 0:03:01Mum Sharon wants to spy on him so she can see what he gets up to when he's away.
0:03:01 > 0:03:06This is probably something that's going to make me see, really, what my son's like.
0:03:06 > 0:03:11So, I'd like to think what I've seen, through his younger days, growing,
0:03:11 > 0:03:13is still reflecting on him now.
0:03:13 > 0:03:16The worst thing on this holiday I could see
0:03:16 > 0:03:19would be Chase being disrespectful.
0:03:19 > 0:03:23If I find a girl that looks like Alesha Dixon, she is getting chirped, straight up.
0:03:23 > 0:03:25It's definitely important for me to be proud of Chase.
0:03:27 > 0:03:29Even though he's never skied before,
0:03:29 > 0:03:32cocky Chase thinks he's got it all sewn up.
0:03:34 > 0:03:35I reckon I'll be good. Why not?
0:03:35 > 0:03:38I play literally football, rugby, basketball.
0:03:38 > 0:03:40Skiing is just a different sport.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43I don't want Chase being careless on the slopes.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47Being a sporty person, he probably will be competitive or try to be.
0:03:47 > 0:03:49He thinks he can ski, but I know he can't.
0:03:49 > 0:03:53I am a risk taker, but when it comes to injuring my face, I'm not taking that risk.
0:03:53 > 0:03:56When you're good-looking, you don't want to injure your face.
0:03:56 > 0:04:02A budding model, Chase could also have some off-piste distractions,
0:04:02 > 0:04:06which is another of mum Sharon's major concerns.
0:04:06 > 0:04:09I do not have a clue about Chase's sex life.
0:04:09 > 0:04:11So far so good, I'm not a grandma yet.
0:04:13 > 0:04:15What about your condoms?
0:04:15 > 0:04:19Oh, er, I'm a Catholic - sex after marriage, innit?
0:04:19 > 0:04:23It's important for him to respect women because I've raised him.
0:04:23 > 0:04:24- Is there anything else?- Condoms.
0:04:24 > 0:04:29And girls are quite forward nowadays, so I see, so I have to worry about my son!
0:04:29 > 0:04:32On this holiday, I wouldn't say I would really look for a woman -
0:04:32 > 0:04:34they usually come up to me.
0:04:34 > 0:04:36Like, I'm not being big-headed, but that just happens.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38You be careful with the alcohol "assumption".
0:04:38 > 0:04:40I don't really drink.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44The first 24 hours of the holiday, go to the liveliest bar, club,
0:04:44 > 0:04:47and just get on it the first day, that's what you've got to do.
0:04:47 > 0:04:51I am not a kid. I will look after myself, don't worry.
0:04:59 > 0:05:02Going with Chase on his first ever lads holiday
0:05:02 > 0:05:04are two of his closest mates...
0:05:04 > 0:05:07- I do like to er...- Experiment.
0:05:07 > 0:05:11- That's, yeah.- Yeah, cos he's showed me videos on his phone, innit?
0:05:11 > 0:05:14..try anything once Anthony.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18Here's Major... The Major, the Governor.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21I'm the Major. I run things, pretty much.
0:05:21 > 0:05:24..and organiser of the group, Adrian.
0:05:26 > 0:05:33- HE BEATBOXES - Yo, Chase of Croydon, also known as The Fresh Prince of Croydon.
0:05:33 > 0:05:40Also going to Val d'Isere, is 20-year-old, image-conscious, Ben.
0:05:40 > 0:05:43I think I'm a bit obsessed with celebrities.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45I don't know why, I just love their whole lifestyle,
0:05:45 > 0:05:48everything about them, they just all seem so perfect,
0:05:48 > 0:05:50but Joey Essex is a personal favourite.
0:05:53 > 0:05:58Ben lives in a village near Dover with laidback dad, James,
0:05:58 > 0:06:00and his girlfriend of three years, Kelly.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03And traditional man's man, James,
0:06:03 > 0:06:07finds it hard to understand his son's fascination with his looks.
0:06:09 > 0:06:11You got more hair stuff in there than a woman.
0:06:11 > 0:06:12Yeah, but I need it, don't I?
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Me and Ben are close, but he's more into his...fashion.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21Spends a fortune on sprays and gels. I wish Ben was a bit more laddy.
0:06:21 > 0:06:23Ben spends ages in the bathroom.
0:06:23 > 0:06:26- Hurry up Ben, I need a shit. - I'm doing my hair!
0:06:26 > 0:06:33Single dad James has brought Ben up by himself for the last six years.
0:06:33 > 0:06:34I did try my best with him.
0:06:34 > 0:06:39It's very difficult to be a dad and a friend and everything all at once, and a mum of course.
0:06:39 > 0:06:42It's... Yeah, I'd like to think I'm a good dad to him.
0:06:42 > 0:06:47Come on, it won't make a difference, you still can't get a girlfriend anyway, hurry up.
0:06:47 > 0:06:50Me and Ben are like mates, rather than father and son.
0:06:50 > 0:06:52Ben can talk to me about anything.
0:06:52 > 0:06:55- Is that it? Is it really worth it? - It's perfect.
0:06:55 > 0:06:58- Really?- Yeah.- It don't look no different.- No, it looks perfect.
0:06:58 > 0:07:02But Ben doesn't see things quite the same way as his dad.
0:07:02 > 0:07:06I don't feel like I can speak to him about any worries or stuff like that.
0:07:06 > 0:07:07Erm, I'd rather just have a joke with him.
0:07:07 > 0:07:10I wouldn't say it was a close family.
0:07:10 > 0:07:12We don't spend as much time together as we should do.
0:07:12 > 0:07:17And unbeknown to James, Ben is hiding something from his dad.
0:07:17 > 0:07:20Seriously low self esteem that stems from his teenage years.
0:07:20 > 0:07:25Confidence is a bit of an issue for me. I'm not as confident as I could be.
0:07:25 > 0:07:27I was overweight when I was younger.
0:07:27 > 0:07:31I didn't think that people had a good opinion of me, being overweight.
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I didn't really socialise a lot, at all.
0:07:34 > 0:07:38It's still not a point, erm, where I totally feel confident around everybody.
0:07:38 > 0:07:43So, dad James might get more than he bargained for from this spying trip.
0:07:43 > 0:07:44But what does HE hope to get out of it?
0:07:45 > 0:07:48Just to see what sort of things he gets up to when we're not about.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50Sometimes we won't see him for hours.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53He'll just disappear upstairs, just in his own little world.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58James may be a laidback father,
0:07:58 > 0:08:01but he's got two very strict holiday rules for first time skier, Ben.
0:08:02 > 0:08:03I'd like you to have a lesson.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06Just so you get the basics of what you're doing,
0:08:06 > 0:08:07so you don't hurt yourself.
0:08:07 > 0:08:08Certainly won't be happening.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11Tattoos are a no.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15- If I want a tattoo, I think it's my body. - You know it's one of my hates.
0:08:20 > 0:08:24- Alright, mate.- Hi, boys.- Hi, mate. - How you been?- Not too bad.
0:08:24 > 0:08:28Going with Ben on his first ever skiing holiday are two of his mates...
0:08:28 > 0:08:33I'll tell you what, boys, I'm planning on getting absolutely paralytic every single night.
0:08:33 > 0:08:34..big drinker, Chris...
0:08:36 > 0:08:40- Minimum, 5am.- Yep. - We've got to stay out all night.
0:08:40 > 0:08:42..and night owl, Ash.
0:08:42 > 0:08:44I plan on getting you two
0:08:44 > 0:08:46absolutely smashed every single night,
0:08:46 > 0:08:48making sure that you have a quality time,
0:08:48 > 0:08:49and making sure that I enjoy myself too.
0:08:49 > 0:08:55- Wow.- You need to man up, mate.- That sounded gay, didn't it?- Pathetic.
0:08:55 > 0:08:59Ben wants to keep the weight off and not show himself up.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01So unlike most lads his age,
0:09:01 > 0:09:04he's planning on staying alcohol-free this holiday.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06I make a bit of a fool of myself when I'm drunk.
0:09:06 > 0:09:11One of the reasons why I don't drink is because I want to look my best, I want to stay slim.
0:09:11 > 0:09:13Ben should have fun while he's young.
0:09:13 > 0:09:14He should have a drink, have a laugh.
0:09:14 > 0:09:205am, and over in South London, Chase is about to leave the clutches of strict mum, Sharon.
0:09:20 > 0:09:23That's if she can let him go.
0:09:23 > 0:09:25- Condoms? Did you pack them? - Adrian got them for me.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27Yeah good. Well done, Adrian.
0:09:27 > 0:09:32- Right, mum, see you... - You look after yourself and take it easy.- I will do.
0:09:32 > 0:09:37Chase is met by Ant and Adrian. With them all hailing from Purley,
0:09:37 > 0:09:39they're known as the "Purlaid Crew".
0:09:39 > 0:09:41Yes, Purlaid.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45See you, Chase. See you on the slopes!
0:09:46 > 0:09:50Time for the Dover boys to swap the white cliffs for the white slopes
0:09:50 > 0:09:53and head off on the holiday of a lifetime.
0:09:53 > 0:09:58- Pick them up Captain. All right. - As per usual, half of that's hair products.
0:09:58 > 0:10:02- Give us a man hug, Ben. - See you later.- Take care.
0:10:02 > 0:10:07- OK.- See you later, love. Bye. - Enjoy yourself, have fun.- Bye.
0:10:09 > 0:10:11See you, see you sooner than you think.
0:10:11 > 0:10:14And we'll be watching every move.
0:10:14 > 0:10:17Chase and Ben are oblivious that their parents will be joining them on holiday,
0:10:17 > 0:10:20Spying on them every step of the way.
0:10:21 > 0:10:25Both sets of boys are heading to the Alps -
0:10:25 > 0:10:27home to some of the best skiing in the world.
0:10:27 > 0:10:33But it's also home to one of Europe's coolest winter party resorts. Val d'Isere.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38With bars and clubs open day and night,
0:10:38 > 0:10:42hordes of youngsters descend on it every week,
0:10:42 > 0:10:44to party on and off the piste.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53And joining in on the Val d'Isere vibe
0:10:53 > 0:10:56are the very up-for-it Purlaid Crew.
0:10:56 > 0:10:59Yes. Nice sun. It ain't like England.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02I'm going to get even more and more brown.
0:11:02 > 0:11:09Free from the grip of his strict mum, and on his first ever lads' holiday,
0:11:09 > 0:11:13non-skier Chase is ready to hit the most challenging slopes.
0:11:13 > 0:11:17I'm going on the black slope. I ain't scared.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19You'll probably, literally, tumble down.
0:11:19 > 0:11:23Three hours later and the boys are nearly at their hotel.
0:11:23 > 0:11:27But first, they stop off for some vital supplies.
0:11:27 > 0:11:30Stocking up for the week, really - a little bit of cereal.
0:11:30 > 0:11:33Essentials, water for the hangovers.
0:11:35 > 0:11:37- Yes.- Wahey.- Well done, Chase.
0:11:37 > 0:11:41- We got a kitchen, bruv. - No.- Yes bruv.
0:11:41 > 0:11:44Oh, there's speakers as well. Oh! Sorted.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46We hit the jackpot.
0:11:46 > 0:11:48I need to use the gaff.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53Purlaid, welcome to our house, mate. Keep it nice and tidy there, mate.
0:11:53 > 0:11:57I don't want no skid marks in the toilet, yeah?
0:11:57 > 0:12:01Time to unpack the essentials.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04Bruv, we've got bare beers.
0:12:04 > 0:12:09Five o'clock and the Dover boys have just arrived.
0:12:09 > 0:12:14We're here then, boys, the sun's shining, time to have some fun.
0:12:20 > 0:12:22Nice bathroom.
0:12:23 > 0:12:27- Looks like me and you are sharing this then, Ash, mate.- Erm, yeah(!)
0:12:27 > 0:12:29So, has the excitement of coming on holiday
0:12:29 > 0:12:32made Ben change his mind about being on the wagon?
0:12:32 > 0:12:35I'm not drinking, but I shall be getting them two smashed.
0:12:35 > 0:12:38Get them throwing their stupid dance moves.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40And just making a fool of themselves.
0:12:40 > 0:12:43That's a no then. But it sets his mates a challenge.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46There's no way I'm letting him go home a sober man.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52At the Purlaid Crew's hotel,
0:12:52 > 0:12:55Chase doesn't need any encouragement to knock back the booze,
0:12:55 > 0:13:00starting with a very French-themed Rose wine chaser.
0:13:01 > 0:13:04- Fuck that!- Go, go!
0:13:04 > 0:13:06- HE BURPS - I don't believe it, man.
0:13:06 > 0:13:10Fuelled by their pre-drinks, the boys head into town.
0:13:10 > 0:13:14But will they be able to handle what Val d'Isere has to offer?
0:13:23 > 0:13:29Are we scared? No, we're not. The only person I'm scared of is my mum.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33And away from the watchful eye of his mum,
0:13:33 > 0:13:38at the first bar, Chase swaps the bottle of Rose for a bottle of spirits.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40Ah, yeah!
0:13:47 > 0:13:48HE MOUTHS
0:13:50 > 0:13:53Drink it! Down, down, down!
0:13:53 > 0:13:56And it's not long before the Fresh Prince of Croydon
0:13:56 > 0:13:58tries to make his mark on Val d'Isere.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02Rizzle Kicks, nice to meet you.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04I said I was Rizzle Kicks and they believed me
0:14:04 > 0:14:05and I got a promotion - free drinks.
0:14:05 > 0:14:07Bonjour.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15- Basically...- This guy's from Rizzle Kicks, man.- No way.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18- What's your name?- Sophie. - Nice to meet you, Sophie.- And you.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22First big night out, boys, in Val d'Isere.
0:14:24 > 0:14:28The Dover boys are also heading into town.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31And Ben is immediately faced with temptation
0:14:31 > 0:14:33as Ash and Chris get straight on it.
0:14:39 > 0:14:42Despite the peer group pressure, he stands firm.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46Ben hasn't had anything to drink. Not a sweet fanny fuck all!
0:14:46 > 0:14:49Do you want some milk, do you want some fucking milk(!)
0:14:49 > 0:14:52I've had two drinks - a Diet Coke and a water.
0:14:52 > 0:14:55I am a little bit jealous of the fun they're having,
0:14:55 > 0:14:58like getting the drink straight down and drinking competitions...
0:15:01 > 0:15:05Could it just be a matter of time before Ben cracks?
0:15:06 > 0:15:08Later, when a girl approaches him,
0:15:08 > 0:15:11Ben's not confident enough to even talk to her.
0:15:17 > 0:15:24- That girl's trying to chat to Ben and he just told her to fuck off. - What one?- This one right here!
0:15:24 > 0:15:27He should man up a bit, talk to some girls...
0:15:27 > 0:15:31He's a free agent, but Ben has his own reasons for not chatting her up.
0:15:31 > 0:15:33Er, a bit ugly, er, not quite my type
0:15:33 > 0:15:37and er, definitely not looking for anyone like that.
0:15:40 > 0:15:42Beers are off the agenda,
0:15:42 > 0:15:45girls are off the agenda, but at least Ben is having a good time(!)
0:15:45 > 0:15:49Erm, I probably am getting a little bit bored now.
0:15:49 > 0:15:51It's a little bit annoying Ben wants to go home,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54but it's cos he ain't drinking he wants to go home.
0:15:54 > 0:15:57I think, Ben, he needs to just let go a little bit.
0:15:59 > 0:16:00- 4am.- Time to head home.
0:16:00 > 0:16:04And Ben convinces the boys to call it a night.
0:16:04 > 0:16:06Can we decorate a Christmas tree?
0:16:06 > 0:16:09As the Dover boys head home...
0:16:09 > 0:16:11Go.
0:16:11 > 0:16:14..Chase is king of clubs in a bar across town.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17- RAPPING:- My name is not chocolate, call me a Twirl.
0:16:17 > 0:16:22Yo, Listen, I want to sing like far out, Rizzle Kicks.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24Tonight's been a bit of a crazy one, like.
0:16:24 > 0:16:27We've had, erm, Chase acting as if he was Rizzle Kicks.
0:16:27 > 0:16:30And just like the biggest stars...
0:16:30 > 0:16:34- All I'm saying is I love my mum so much.- Are you gone?- I'm not gone.
0:16:34 > 0:16:37..it looks like fame has gone to Chase's head.
0:16:37 > 0:16:40- Let's walk in.- Yeah, we can't walk in. It's closed.
0:16:45 > 0:16:47The fall means it's the end of the night.
0:16:47 > 0:16:50Anthony and Adrian take Chase home...
0:16:50 > 0:16:53Where's the girls? Get the girls.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55..and put him to bed.
0:16:55 > 0:16:59- Goodnight, boys. - Goodnight, see you later, mate.
0:17:05 > 0:17:06I'm never drinking again.
0:17:06 > 0:17:09The Dover boys' hotel the next morning,
0:17:09 > 0:17:11and Chris and Ash are feeling the pain.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14- How many Jagers did we have last night?- Too many.
0:17:14 > 0:17:18But having kept off the spirits, it means Ben's in good spirits.
0:17:18 > 0:17:22My body feels like a temple. Like I'm so refreshed.
0:17:22 > 0:17:26It's time to ski. But Ben's keeping his mates off the slopes
0:17:26 > 0:17:28with his infamous morning routine.
0:17:33 > 0:17:35Oi, Adrian...
0:17:35 > 0:17:39At the Purlaid Crew's hotel, Chase seems surprisingly sprightly.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47Adrian, come on, wake up.
0:17:47 > 0:17:49Maybe the hangover hasn't kicked in yet.
0:17:49 > 0:17:52Adrian, come on, wake up, we've got to go skiing.
0:17:52 > 0:17:56And they aren't the only newcomers to the slopes of Val d'Isere.
0:17:56 > 0:17:59Little do the lads know, their parents have arrived.
0:17:59 > 0:18:01Lovely day, isn't it? Really nice weather.
0:18:01 > 0:18:05First in is Ben's laidback dad, James, and his girlfriend, Kelly.
0:18:05 > 0:18:08Followed by Chase's strict mum, Sharon,
0:18:08 > 0:18:10who's joined by her friend, Marie.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13- Hiya.- Hiya.- You OK?
0:18:13 > 0:18:18- Hello. I'm Chase's mum. - Hi, I'm Kelly.- Hello, Kelly. Alright.- Hiya, I'm Ben's dad.
0:18:18 > 0:18:22A three-hour journey into the Alps gives Sharon and James
0:18:22 > 0:18:27the perfect opportunity to swap notes on their kids.
0:18:27 > 0:18:29So, James, tell me what Ben's like.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32He's on a bit of a non drinking session at the moment.
0:18:32 > 0:18:34He hasn't had a drink for about five months.
0:18:34 > 0:18:38- Good.- So what's Chase like?- I don't really see him as a drinker,
0:18:38 > 0:18:43- so this is going to be very interesting to see. - Well, let's hope they have some fun.
0:18:49 > 0:18:5411am, and Val d'Isere's pistes are packed with skiers.
0:18:54 > 0:18:57The Purlaid Crew are ready to join them.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02Well, perhaps not Chase, because it looks like last night's booze has finally worn off.
0:19:02 > 0:19:03I don't even want to ski.
0:19:03 > 0:19:06I just want to bloody sleep for a bit longer.
0:19:06 > 0:19:10I won't be the best of my ability to... Shit.
0:19:10 > 0:19:12Tired, hung-over and new to skiing,
0:19:12 > 0:19:17competitive Chase still bypasses the beginner's nursery slopes
0:19:17 > 0:19:19to take on a steeper blue run -
0:19:19 > 0:19:23usually for skiers with a little bit more experience.
0:19:27 > 0:19:32Fuck. I think I grazed my back so much, man.
0:19:32 > 0:19:35I had an accident on my first ski, man.
0:19:35 > 0:19:39I've ripped my bloody trousers. It's a massive gash, man.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41It's lucky it's hot out here.
0:19:41 > 0:19:43It's dangerous to ski with a hangover.
0:19:43 > 0:19:45But with a careless disregard for his own safety,
0:19:45 > 0:19:47the cocksure South Londoner,
0:19:47 > 0:19:50who's had no lessons whatsoever, goes again.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01I'm falling all over the place.
0:20:01 > 0:20:03I'm like Bambi on ice and it ain't a good thing.
0:20:03 > 0:20:08Having finally done his hair, Ben and the Dover boys are ready to hit the slopes.
0:20:08 > 0:20:09Wow, look at all this stuff.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13But as they get their kit, self-conscious Ben has his priorities sorted.
0:20:13 > 0:20:15Looking good on the slopes is definitely important.
0:20:15 > 0:20:18Obviously staying safe is erm, like second to that.
0:20:18 > 0:20:23But it looks like Ben's going to do the sensible thing and get a helmet.
0:20:23 > 0:20:26- Do you think I still look cool? - No. Do a little dance.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30I don't know about this helmet malarkey,
0:20:30 > 0:20:32I could spend an hour getting ready.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35- Are you two getting helmets? - No.- You're not?
0:20:35 > 0:20:37- No.- Well neither am I then? - Yeah, you are!
0:20:37 > 0:20:39- I'm not.- You are. - That's coming off.
0:20:39 > 0:20:41Ben's insecurities get the better of him
0:20:41 > 0:20:44and he easily bows to peer group pressure.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46Mate, I'm not having the helmet, I can't look a complete idiot.
0:20:49 > 0:20:51It's really important to me that I look good on the slopes,
0:20:51 > 0:20:53especially in front of my friends.
0:20:53 > 0:20:57First time on the slopes and Ben already breaks one of his dad's rules.
0:20:57 > 0:21:01Like Chase, he's not bothering with a ski lesson.
0:21:09 > 0:21:11I can't even get up!
0:21:16 > 0:21:19I'm aching already.
0:21:22 > 0:21:23Oh...
0:21:26 > 0:21:27Oh, shit!
0:21:27 > 0:21:29Shit!
0:21:35 > 0:21:36I wish I'd got a lesson now.
0:21:45 > 0:21:47Having settled in at their hotel,
0:21:47 > 0:21:49for the first time, the parents are about to see
0:21:49 > 0:21:51what their sons got up to on day one.
0:21:51 > 0:21:55I wouldn't like to see him being disrespectful.
0:21:55 > 0:21:59I wouldn't like to see Chase paralytic drunk.
0:21:59 > 0:22:03I wouldn't like to see Chase drunk where he can't see what he's doing.
0:22:03 > 0:22:05Really looking forward to seeing what Ben was up to last night,
0:22:05 > 0:22:09just to see what sort of thing goes on without us being there, really.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12I'm not sure if Ben would have broken his vow on not drinking or not.
0:22:12 > 0:22:15But first up, it's Chase.
0:22:16 > 0:22:20- Huh!- He isn't?- No!- No!- No! - Half a bottle.
0:22:20 > 0:22:23- Sorry?- 'Oh my goodness.'
0:22:23 > 0:22:27God, he's going to finish it.
0:22:27 > 0:22:28No!
0:22:28 > 0:22:32- No way!- Sharon?
0:22:33 > 0:22:36- Well, I'm not very happy with that.- No way!
0:22:36 > 0:22:37I'm not very happy with that.
0:22:37 > 0:22:41Like, I tell him when you do these mixing drinks
0:22:41 > 0:22:43it's a form of alcohol poisoning.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45It's just a shock to the system.
0:22:45 > 0:22:48- Yes.- We don't see this. I don't see him drink.
0:22:52 > 0:22:56- Oh!- No way!
0:22:56 > 0:22:58Good.
0:23:04 > 0:23:05Goodnight, boys.
0:23:05 > 0:23:07Did you see the part when he fell over?
0:23:07 > 0:23:10- Oh yeah. - See, that to me, worries me.
0:23:10 > 0:23:13I'm not used to that. I don't see that.
0:23:13 > 0:23:14This is the first night,
0:23:14 > 0:23:16but if it is an every night thing I'm seeing,
0:23:16 > 0:23:18I'm going to be worried.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20- We never used to drink that much.- No way.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24Next up it's James's turn to see what Ben's like away from home.
0:23:27 > 0:23:29Oh no, he is being good.
0:23:31 > 0:23:33Oh, shots. Oh!
0:23:33 > 0:23:35- Go on, give one to Ben.- How many?
0:23:35 > 0:23:36- Oh, and a water. - A water!
0:23:36 > 0:23:39Water!
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- I've had two drinks... - SHE GASPS
0:23:41 > 0:23:45- A Diet Coke and a water.- Oh!
0:23:45 > 0:23:47I am jealous of the fun they're having,
0:23:47 > 0:23:48getting the drinks straight down.
0:23:49 > 0:23:52- You must be proud with that? - Yeah, yeah, if he says...
0:23:52 > 0:23:55- Yeah, he said he could have as much fun. - But he did say he was jealous.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58Yeah. I think he's going to succumb. I think he will.
0:23:58 > 0:24:01JAMES: I kind of hope Ben has a drink and relaxes with the lads.
0:24:06 > 0:24:09- They left him on his own.- Oh!
0:24:09 > 0:24:11It's annoying Ben wants to go home.
0:24:11 > 0:24:15If you ain't drinking, you're not going to enjoy it as much.
0:24:15 > 0:24:16- <- Bless him!
0:24:16 > 0:24:18There's a little division.
0:24:18 > 0:24:21I think he would relax if he had a drink and mix in with the lads.
0:24:21 > 0:24:23He did look, sitting on his own,
0:24:23 > 0:24:26as if he was a bit lonely and not sort of mixing in.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30- Oh, he can be like that at home... - We're used to him being at home, laying on his bed.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32- Yeah.- And just not mixing in and...
0:24:32 > 0:24:35When you see him sitting back when the others are enjoying themselves...
0:24:35 > 0:24:38- You'd like to see him up there... - Yeah.- ..with the rest of them.- Yeah.
0:24:40 > 0:24:44The Dover boys have been practising hard for four hours.
0:24:44 > 0:24:47And they're gearing up for a short race.
0:24:47 > 0:24:52But they're not alone. Ben's dad James, and Kelly, are going to spy on him.
0:24:52 > 0:24:56Having seen him struggle at night, James wants to make sure Ben,
0:24:56 > 0:25:00who's in the yellow jacket, is having fun during the day.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02God, I can't believe he's only just over there.
0:25:02 > 0:25:06Oh, a couple of hundred feet away from him.
0:25:06 > 0:25:09I hope he's got his helmet on!
0:25:10 > 0:25:14Un, deux, trois!
0:25:14 > 0:25:18PARENTS GASP Bloody hell, Ben!
0:25:21 > 0:25:27- Oh my god, look how fast he's going. - Look at him go.- He's whizzing. - He's going so fast!
0:25:27 > 0:25:32Remarkably, Ben's hard work paid off. He actually won the race.
0:25:32 > 0:25:35I'm just waiting for the national anthem now.
0:25:35 > 0:25:39- That was really good, wasn't it? He don't realise we're just here. - But how fast did he go?
0:25:39 > 0:25:41- I know.- How did he stop?
0:25:42 > 0:25:43Brilliant!
0:25:46 > 0:25:50Satisfied Ben's enjoying himself, dad James and Kelly sneak off.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00Now back at his hotel,
0:26:00 > 0:26:05self-conscious Ben hadn't realised how strong the alpine sun can be.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10Sunburnt. I look like a cherry tomato... I'm just going to...
0:26:10 > 0:26:14- All you need is a green wig and you'll be a fucking Oompa Loompa. - I know. I feel awful.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18I'm not going to worry about looking good tonight.
0:26:18 > 0:26:20His face may be beetroot red,
0:26:20 > 0:26:23but amazingly for Ben, he still wants to hit the bars.
0:26:23 > 0:26:25Let's get out and party.
0:26:25 > 0:26:27Night two in Val d'Isere.
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Will this be when Ben cracks and gets back on the booze?
0:26:33 > 0:26:34It doesn't look likely.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36Ash and Chris get stuck in,
0:26:36 > 0:26:39but tonight they seem less bothered about getting Ben to drink
0:26:39 > 0:26:42and more focused on getting him a girl.
0:26:42 > 0:26:43Come on, Ben. The challenge is, mate,
0:26:43 > 0:26:45you've got to talk to at least one girl,
0:26:45 > 0:26:47and that's not just a simple hello.
0:26:47 > 0:26:51- I'm not going to speak to someone that I'm not interested in at all. - You are just being a minge.
0:26:51 > 0:26:55- Get in there!- I'm having fun, I'm not, I didn't come out here to have...
0:26:55 > 0:26:57You're 21, mate, and you're on a fucking detox.
0:26:57 > 0:27:02- Are you still a virgin? - No, definitely not, mate. Definitely not.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Ben's confidence issues are still affecting his holiday.
0:27:05 > 0:27:08Just like at home, he feels he can't confide in anyone.
0:27:08 > 0:27:11I think I might be a little bit scared of being rejected by girls,
0:27:11 > 0:27:13I mean I've never had the confidence to go and speak to new people.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17Probably with the whole confidence thing of being overweight, so it's difficult.
0:27:17 > 0:27:20I don't think everyone knows about my confidence issues.
0:27:20 > 0:27:22It's not something I voice to people.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25What about your dad, and...do your family know?
0:27:25 > 0:27:27Erm...
0:27:31 > 0:27:34Visibly upset, Ben has difficulty answering.
0:27:34 > 0:27:36I don't know.
0:27:45 > 0:27:46Do you mind if I...?
0:27:46 > 0:27:49With his insecurities on his mind,
0:27:49 > 0:27:52Ben finds it hard to get into the swing of things.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55So the Dover boys decide to call it a night.
0:27:55 > 0:28:00I did feel quite awkward, it's like, it's not easy to talk about.
0:28:00 > 0:28:02I definitely do bottle a lot up inside of me
0:28:02 > 0:28:06and and don't really find it easy to talk to people about things.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07Erm, I wish I could.
0:28:11 > 0:28:151.30am - at the Purlaid Crew's hotel,
0:28:15 > 0:28:18they're sober and just going out.
0:28:18 > 0:28:21Tonight, Chase will be playing the fame game - again.
0:28:21 > 0:28:24Rizzle Kicks, yeah, that's me for tonight.
0:28:24 > 0:28:28But the first bar they get to... is dead.
0:28:31 > 0:28:34Then on the way to their second bar...
0:28:34 > 0:28:37RAUCOUS SHOUTING
0:28:40 > 0:28:42..whilst Ant finds a new friend,
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Chase and Adrian get involved in a slanging match
0:28:45 > 0:28:48with some drunken revellers - about skiing ability.
0:28:48 > 0:28:51I just want to leave here, to be honest with you. Some dickheads.
0:28:51 > 0:28:56You can't even double, you can't even double, you can't even straight out of reds man.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58You can ski, well done(!)
0:28:58 > 0:29:03Chase shows maturity by calming Adrian and turning his back on any aggro.
0:29:03 > 0:29:06- I really wanted to hit him. - We've got to be the bigger person.
0:29:06 > 0:29:08We're here for a holiday.
0:29:08 > 0:29:10We don't want to look like thugs, you know, cos we ain't.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14Leaving Ant to his own devices, Chase and Adrian head home.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17So much for trying to top their first night out.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28At the parents' hotel they're about to see what their kids got up to
0:29:28 > 0:29:30on the second day of their holiday.
0:29:30 > 0:29:33But Chase's first night's drunken antics
0:29:33 > 0:29:36have been worrying his strict mum, Sharon.
0:29:36 > 0:29:40Well, I've slept on it, now, but I've still got mixed emotions.
0:29:40 > 0:29:43Still definitely mixed, but I'm hoping today
0:29:43 > 0:29:46I see something a bit more positive from him.
0:29:46 > 0:29:49I've had major concerns about, erm,
0:29:49 > 0:29:51him going skiing the next day after the drinking.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59Man, I can't even ski today, I don't even want to ski.
0:29:59 > 0:30:02I just want to bloody sleep for a bit longer,
0:30:02 > 0:30:05- but we're up this early skiing. - Serve you right.
0:30:07 > 0:30:09- Ooh!- Oh, oh!
0:30:09 > 0:30:11- Bless him.- Good!
0:30:11 > 0:30:15Teach him a lesson. Slow down, slow down.
0:30:15 > 0:30:19Oh, Chase, Chase, Chase! Oh, oh, oh!
0:30:19 > 0:30:24No, I'm not happy with this now. He doesn't know what he's doing.
0:30:24 > 0:30:27- No.- He doesn't, he hasn't got a clue.
0:30:27 > 0:30:29- I'm a bit disappointed now.- Yeah.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32- I'm disappointed in Chase. - He shouldn't have drunk so much.
0:30:32 > 0:30:38This is what my concern was though. This is something he's coming to do and the alcohol in him...
0:30:38 > 0:30:42That's a bit of a concern because he's not thinking straight.
0:30:42 > 0:30:45- He's not seeing the...- The danger.
0:30:45 > 0:30:48- Yeah. But I'm very worried. - Of course.
0:30:49 > 0:30:54- You can't even double, you can't even double, you can't even... Straight out the reds.- I don't like that.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56You can ski, well done(!)
0:30:56 > 0:30:59- OK, good, walk away. - He's walking away, yeah. He has.- Good boy.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02- Well done.- Feel chuffed. - I got worried.
0:31:02 > 0:31:05- All right.- Well, it's good that he walked away.
0:31:05 > 0:31:09I'm relieved with that... cos I don't like bully behaviour.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13This is what I was worried about - the confrontations with other people
0:31:13 > 0:31:15when you've had alcohol in your system.
0:31:15 > 0:31:18Last night, there would have been a fight.
0:31:18 > 0:31:22- There would have been a fight. - It just proves that while he's not with you, he's strong enough...
0:31:22 > 0:31:24- Yes.- ..to make his own decisions.
0:31:24 > 0:31:25I feel a lot better today.
0:31:25 > 0:31:28I don't know whether he's learnt anything right now,
0:31:28 > 0:31:31but by the end of the week, I might see something different.
0:31:31 > 0:31:34Next up - Ben's dad, James.
0:31:34 > 0:31:35Oh, dear.
0:31:35 > 0:31:39I don't know about this helmet malarkey, I spent an hour getting ready.
0:31:39 > 0:31:41- At least he's sensible.- Yeah. - 'Are you two getting helmets?'
0:31:41 > 0:31:44- No.- You're not?- No. - Neither am I, then.
0:31:44 > 0:31:47- Yeah, you are.- I'm not. - You are.- That's coming off.
0:31:47 > 0:31:50- No! - That's coming off.
0:31:50 > 0:31:53- Oh, no! - How you feeling now?
0:31:53 > 0:31:56Well, it just goes to show - pressure from the other lads...
0:31:56 > 0:31:58- Yeah.- He was ready, he had the hat on.
0:31:58 > 0:32:00The thing that worries me the most
0:32:00 > 0:32:03- there is that Ben gave in so quick to his mates.- Yeah.
0:32:03 > 0:32:05James's reason for spying on Ben
0:32:05 > 0:32:07is to see what he's like away from home,
0:32:07 > 0:32:11but he's about to get a bit more than he bargained for.
0:32:11 > 0:32:13I've never had the confidence to speak to new people.
0:32:13 > 0:32:16Probably with the whole confidence thing of being overweight,
0:32:16 > 0:32:20erm, not really enjoying myself as a teenager. So, it's difficult.
0:32:20 > 0:32:23'What about your dad, and do your family know?'
0:32:24 > 0:32:25Erm...
0:32:28 > 0:32:30- BEN:- I don't know.
0:32:31 > 0:32:33Do you mind if I...?
0:32:38 > 0:32:40How you feeling?
0:32:40 > 0:32:42Erm, it's a bit upsetting,
0:32:42 > 0:32:45because, obviously, for the last sort of six years,
0:32:45 > 0:32:48I've tried to be his mum, his dad and his friend.
0:32:48 > 0:32:52So, obviously you can't do everything right.
0:32:52 > 0:32:54- No.- And sometimes if you try and be them three things,
0:32:54 > 0:32:58they can't talk about everything, so it's a bit upsetting, yeah.
0:32:58 > 0:33:01- Most definitely.- I've never seen Ben get upset either, so...
0:33:01 > 0:33:03- No.- What do you feel like now, then, James?
0:33:03 > 0:33:05Actually really, truthfully, seeing that last bit?
0:33:05 > 0:33:10- Shit.- Do you? - Yeah, I feel...choked.
0:33:10 > 0:33:14I must admit, I do feel pretty bad... Erm, sorry.
0:33:20 > 0:33:24And that really, sort of, makes me feel like I've let him down.
0:33:24 > 0:33:26I don't think you've let him down at all.
0:33:26 > 0:33:27And you've been there for him.
0:33:27 > 0:33:31- Yeah, but it's still... - It's the communication side of it. - ..hard to watch.
0:33:31 > 0:33:34Early morning at the Dover boys' hotel,
0:33:34 > 0:33:37and Ben's clear head means he's made a big decision.
0:33:37 > 0:33:39I'm thinking about getting a tattoo.
0:33:39 > 0:33:41I've wanted to do it for a long time.
0:33:41 > 0:33:44I might as well get it done out here.
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Especially if I've got you to hold my hand, Ash.
0:33:48 > 0:33:51Oh God, look at that snow.
0:33:51 > 0:33:54How deep is the snow? It's nearly up to my knees.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57Ash might have been fast asleep, but he's wide awake now.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Ben's dragging him and Chris to the nearest open tattoo parlour.
0:34:00 > 0:34:04A 20-mile drive down windy roads to a nearby town.
0:34:04 > 0:34:08I think this is a bit of a silly idea going in this sort of weather, Benny.
0:34:08 > 0:34:13I don't even know if I want to go. I'd actually pay to get off.
0:34:13 > 0:34:17But when Ben sets his mind on something, he sticks to it.
0:34:17 > 0:34:22Ben, if we die and you survive, I'm going to haunt you for the rest of your life.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25An hour-and-a-half later, they arrive.
0:34:25 > 0:34:26I feel so nervous.
0:34:26 > 0:34:32He's already broken his dad's rule of not taking a skiing lesson on his first time skiing.
0:34:32 > 0:34:34Now, he's about to break the biggest rule of all.
0:34:34 > 0:34:37One of Dad's last words to me was that I wasn't to get a tattoo.
0:34:37 > 0:34:42But I'm going to get on with it, erm, and hope I don't cry.
0:34:42 > 0:34:46- Hello.- Hello. Hello. - Erm, I've come for my first tattoo.
0:34:46 > 0:34:48- OK.- I want to get a single word.
0:34:48 > 0:34:54Ben's tattoo is very personal to him. He believes he's made up a slang word pronounced, 'welt'.
0:34:54 > 0:34:57Erm, it means good, amazing, erm, something positive.
0:34:57 > 0:35:02Time to see if Ben has the confidence to go through with the operation.
0:35:03 > 0:35:07- Oh!- Does it actually hurt?- Yeah!
0:35:12 > 0:35:14Now you are a man!
0:35:14 > 0:35:16It's really good, I really like it.
0:35:16 > 0:35:18I feel like a man, I didn't cry.
0:35:18 > 0:35:21With his new markings, Ben is brimming with confidence.
0:35:21 > 0:35:25I'm proud that I've got it done. I never thought I'd be able to do it.
0:35:25 > 0:35:29I just hope my dad don't have too much of a bad reaction to it.
0:35:29 > 0:35:33I think it's my decision, and ultimately, it's my body.
0:35:42 > 0:35:47In Val d'Isere, the Purlaid Crew have been skiing all morning.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50But after hurting his neck in a nasty fall,
0:35:50 > 0:35:54Chase has left the slopes and has gone for some medical advice.
0:35:54 > 0:35:57Well, the pharmacist told me to move my neck.
0:35:57 > 0:36:00She goes, "Well I can tell by your movement there's nothing broken."
0:36:00 > 0:36:03Chase heads back to his apartment to rest.
0:36:03 > 0:36:06Now halfway through his holiday,
0:36:06 > 0:36:09his injury has made him think about his cocky attitude.
0:36:09 > 0:36:11I did think I could ski
0:36:11 > 0:36:15just because of the basis that I could rollerblade,
0:36:15 > 0:36:17skate and do ice-skating.
0:36:17 > 0:36:20On my first day of skiing, I was so terrible.
0:36:20 > 0:36:24I was like flying over the place, and literally injuring myself.
0:36:24 > 0:36:27Like, I scratched my back. Like today, I've ruined my neck.
0:36:27 > 0:36:31But it's actually put me down to earth how arrogant I can get sometimes.
0:36:31 > 0:36:36He's come a long way from announcing he was going to do a black run when he first turned up.
0:36:39 > 0:36:41The Dover boys are getting ready to go out again,
0:36:41 > 0:36:45and again Ben's not drinking, but Ash and Chris are.
0:36:45 > 0:36:47Go on, Chrissie.
0:36:48 > 0:36:52- Good drink, Ash? - Oh mate, I'm smashed.
0:36:52 > 0:36:55LAUGHTER
0:36:55 > 0:36:58You're not even going to make it out, mate.
0:36:58 > 0:37:00Fuck a goat!
0:37:00 > 0:37:02But the booze gets the better of Chris.
0:37:04 > 0:37:08Oh, Chris, have you been sick? It's absolutely everywhere.
0:37:08 > 0:37:14Erm, he threw up all over the bathroom. So funny, but I think I'm going to end up cleaning it up.
0:37:14 > 0:37:18I think there's only one option, as the sober one.
0:37:18 > 0:37:24If someone other than me had been sick in my house, there's no way I was cleaning it up.
0:37:24 > 0:37:26Hold my hand, seriously.
0:37:26 > 0:37:31Across town, Chase, Adrian and Ant have made it past their bathroom.
0:37:31 > 0:37:34As well as a good night out, they're looking for a couple of other things.
0:37:34 > 0:37:36If we get any girls, it's a bonus isn't it?
0:37:36 > 0:37:40- Crisps.- Agreed?- I want to get some crisps.- Ant wants some crisps.
0:37:40 > 0:37:45But what Chase doesn't know is two women are about to have their sights firmly fixed on him.
0:37:45 > 0:37:47We're going to go and sneak in,
0:37:47 > 0:37:49and hopefully do a bit of spying on Chase.
0:37:49 > 0:37:52He's in a nightclub round the corner there.
0:37:52 > 0:37:55Watching and listening from the club's kitchen,
0:37:55 > 0:37:58mum, Sharon, wants to make sure Chase is acting respectfully
0:37:58 > 0:38:00and staying out of trouble.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02They don't look too bad, though, do they?
0:38:02 > 0:38:06They're not drunk, staggering into someone?
0:38:06 > 0:38:10How does it feel to be in here, knowing that he's just on the other side of that door?
0:38:10 > 0:38:13- Do you know what, it's too surreal for me?- Bizarre, isn't it?
0:38:13 > 0:38:17But Sharon now has to deal with another of her concerns.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20Her 20-year-old boy catching a lady's eye.
0:38:25 > 0:38:2629, she said she is.
0:38:32 > 0:38:33He has to lie.
0:38:39 > 0:38:42- Oh, she never just said that? - Oh, my goodness.
0:38:42 > 0:38:45That was an invite for Chase, wasn't it?
0:38:45 > 0:38:48- That was quick, he didn't have to do anything.- That's some fast work.
0:38:48 > 0:38:50Quickly run, show me the way.
0:38:50 > 0:38:54Chase heads out of the club with his new, more mature friend.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57And all Sharon can do is wonder.
0:38:57 > 0:39:03- It's too much for me to take on as a mother, I can't cope. She's 29. - I know.- He's 20.- Yeah.
0:39:05 > 0:39:07I hope they got condoms, just in case, you know?
0:39:07 > 0:39:09- Yeah.- Cos I can't be a grandma yet.
0:39:14 > 0:39:17The Dover boys have made it out to a nearby club.
0:39:17 > 0:39:18Well, two of them, anyway.
0:39:18 > 0:39:21Chris is back at the hotel, fast asleep.
0:39:25 > 0:39:29Booze-free, Ben can still party hard.
0:39:29 > 0:39:33Then Ash's kind words make him realise for the first time,
0:39:33 > 0:39:35he CAN confide in his mates.
0:39:35 > 0:39:37Ben's his own person, I'll always stick there by him.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40I just hope Ben can tell me anything cos I'm always there for him.
0:39:40 > 0:39:43He's a good lad and I'd do anything for him.
0:39:48 > 0:39:52It does make me feel happy that I've got someone to talk to now.
0:39:52 > 0:39:55It isn't always easy for me, but now I feel closer to him.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02The two best mates party on into the small hours.
0:40:21 > 0:40:24Mate, I had the sickest after party, bruv.
0:40:24 > 0:40:289am the next morning and seven hours after disappearing with a girl,
0:40:28 > 0:40:30Chase is back at his hotel.
0:40:30 > 0:40:33I got in at 4.30 and they ain't been to sleep since.
0:40:33 > 0:40:37Having missed out on the action, Ant and Adrian want to know more.
0:40:37 > 0:40:40Mate, I did not bang, man! I slept on the sofa, man.
0:40:40 > 0:40:43I didn't want to disrespect the lady, you know what I mean?
0:40:43 > 0:40:48- INTERVIEWER: Chase, I thought you said you hadn't slept.- Oh shit, yeah.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54Across town at the Dover boys' hotel...
0:40:54 > 0:40:56I'm getting ready to go out anyway.
0:40:56 > 0:41:01With his confidence growing, for the first time, Ben doesn't care what he looks like.
0:41:01 > 0:41:05I think getting this sunburn probably has made me worry less about my appearance.
0:41:05 > 0:41:08I've gone out without my hair done which never would have happened before.
0:41:08 > 0:41:10This is probably the worst I've ever looked.
0:41:10 > 0:41:15It has made me think, maybe I don't need to worry about the littlest things like a bit of dry skin.
0:41:15 > 0:41:20Last night out with Ash made Ben realise he can open up to his friends.
0:41:20 > 0:41:21Now his thoughts turn to his dad.
0:41:21 > 0:41:25I don't think it's easy to confide in him. He had tried his best,
0:41:25 > 0:41:28but we just haven't got the kind of father-son relationship.
0:41:28 > 0:41:31We never sit down and talk properly.
0:41:31 > 0:41:34It would be nice to confide in him and tell him the way I'm feeling.
0:41:42 > 0:41:47Once again, it's time for the parents to see what their children got up to yesterday.
0:41:47 > 0:41:51First up, Ben's dad, James, who's in for a shock.
0:41:51 > 0:41:56- How you feeling, James?- Yeah, good. A bit excited, a bit nervous.
0:41:57 > 0:42:01- I made up a word. I want to get that tattooed on my wrist now.- Oh, no.
0:42:01 > 0:42:04On his wrist, what a dick.
0:42:04 > 0:42:05Now you are a man.
0:42:05 > 0:42:11- Oh dear, I see a sigh, I see... - Yeah, really, yeah.- ..a sense of disappointment here, why?
0:42:11 > 0:42:14Definitely. Before he come out, I said to him, man-to-man,
0:42:14 > 0:42:17"Look, once you've got one, you can't get rid of it."
0:42:17 > 0:42:20It's just, and to have it on his wrist as well,
0:42:20 > 0:42:22where everyone at work can see it and...
0:42:22 > 0:42:25yeah, really disappointed in that.
0:42:25 > 0:42:27Have you heard of the word that he's made up?
0:42:27 > 0:42:29- Welt? - This is a new word. - He's used it at home.
0:42:29 > 0:42:31- It's part of... - He has used it at home.
0:42:31 > 0:42:35I think he ought to get "numpty" or something like that, but yeah...
0:42:35 > 0:42:38Well, shall we see what other stupid things he got up to, shall we?
0:42:38 > 0:42:39OK.
0:42:42 > 0:42:45Look at the state of that bottle of vodka.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47- Good drink, Ash? - Oh mate, I'm smashed.
0:42:50 > 0:42:54Chris, have you been sick? It's absolutely everywhere.
0:42:54 > 0:42:56THEY GROAN
0:42:56 > 0:43:01Sick's probably my worst thing. And I hate cleaning it up.
0:43:01 > 0:43:04He's never cleared up sick, has he? It's always, I end up doing it.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07You had to do it the last time. He was in your shoes then.
0:43:07 > 0:43:11- Yeah.- Yeah.- He was being... He was being Dad.- Yeah.
0:43:11 > 0:43:13Concerned about Chase's cockiness,
0:43:13 > 0:43:17time for Sharon to see if her son has learnt any lessons.
0:43:17 > 0:43:21Being on this holiday has made me think that, erm...
0:43:21 > 0:43:22I think I do know it all,
0:43:22 > 0:43:25like I think I'm Mr Know-It-All, all the time.
0:43:25 > 0:43:29But I think... Like, I did think I could ski.
0:43:29 > 0:43:32I've ruined my neck, I can't even move it all the way round. Oh!
0:43:32 > 0:43:38It's made me think, like, you should always never, never give it chat unless you can do it.
0:43:38 > 0:43:40I've always told Chase, "I don't know everything."
0:43:40 > 0:43:43And to kind of get that in him now, at this age,
0:43:43 > 0:43:46I'm glad for that, I'm so proud he said that.
0:43:46 > 0:43:51Looking forward to seeing how last night developed. I know you're not too keen.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54And he didn't go back with that girl, that's my main concern.
0:43:56 > 0:43:59My baby!
0:44:02 > 0:44:04Quickly, run, show me the way!
0:44:04 > 0:44:07Hmm. Oh, my God!
0:44:12 > 0:44:13Uh-oh. >
0:44:13 > 0:44:17THEY LAUGH
0:44:17 > 0:44:20- To be continued. - Hold my hand.
0:44:20 > 0:44:24- She's gone off with my baby. - He's a good-looking young lad.
0:44:24 > 0:44:28My boy's only 20, and then he's gone off with her now, so it's...
0:44:28 > 0:44:30I know it's... I just know. I know them.
0:44:30 > 0:44:32But as long as he's looked after himself...
0:44:32 > 0:44:36I actually have to accept Chase going off with this girl.
0:44:36 > 0:44:39If he's respecting her, that's my main thing.
0:44:39 > 0:44:42I want him to respect this lady because I raised him.
0:44:42 > 0:44:44A mother raised him, a lady raised him.
0:44:44 > 0:44:48After Chase stayed out all night last night,
0:44:48 > 0:44:51the Purlaid Crew are going for a civilised meal -
0:44:51 > 0:44:53a traditional Alpine fondue.
0:44:53 > 0:44:56Get a bit of meat and you dip it in there.
0:44:56 > 0:45:01As Chase dunks his meat, his mum and Marie sneak into his room.
0:45:01 > 0:45:04After seeing her son go off with an older woman,
0:45:04 > 0:45:06Sharon wants to find out
0:45:06 > 0:45:09if he came prepared for a holiday romance.
0:45:09 > 0:45:13I'm very excited, but I'm nervous as well. I'm trembling.
0:45:13 > 0:45:15Oh, my God!
0:45:15 > 0:45:20It's a risky operation. So they can only hope they don't get caught.
0:45:20 > 0:45:24Once inside, Sharon, who's a strict mum at home,
0:45:24 > 0:45:27can detect her son's territorial markings.
0:45:27 > 0:45:28This one, I know that's Chase's
0:45:28 > 0:45:33because he keeps leaving wet towels on there, and I keep telling him, "Don't do that, it's bad karma."
0:45:33 > 0:45:35What's he gone and done? But that's Chase.
0:45:35 > 0:45:39I'm not impressed with that, look at that. Skid mark on the toilet.
0:45:40 > 0:45:44Then she finds what she's looking for.
0:45:44 > 0:45:46Oh!
0:45:46 > 0:45:48Condoms!
0:45:48 > 0:45:53Safe in the knowledge that Chase has contraception, they sneak out.
0:45:53 > 0:45:55I'm buzzing like a doorbell!
0:45:55 > 0:45:58Yeah, and condoms, we saw the condoms in the room.
0:45:58 > 0:46:00I was happy with that.
0:46:04 > 0:46:08Things are just getting going in Val d'Isere's bars and clubs.
0:46:12 > 0:46:14The Dover boys have gone for one final night out,
0:46:14 > 0:46:17and as they hit their first bar, they're not alone.
0:46:17 > 0:46:21Dad, James, and partner, Kelly, have sneaked into the kitchen.
0:46:21 > 0:46:24Ben's only just the other side of this wall.
0:46:24 > 0:46:27- He's in there. - So we're, er, tip-toeing around.
0:46:27 > 0:46:31James is hoping to see his son let his hair down.
0:46:31 > 0:46:34There's a barmaid out there dressed as a snowman.
0:46:34 > 0:46:40I'm going to go out there, head to toe in snowman gear and he's not going to know it's me.
0:46:40 > 0:46:42- How funny.- Wicked.
0:46:42 > 0:46:46It's so risky, being as he's so close as well.
0:46:46 > 0:46:47When Kelly's behind the bar,
0:46:47 > 0:46:50James will be able to see and hear via a monitor.
0:46:50 > 0:46:54And he's about to witness something he hasn't seen his son do in a while.
0:46:54 > 0:46:58You know what boys, cos it's our last night, I've had a good time,
0:46:58 > 0:46:59I'm going to have one drink.
0:46:59 > 0:47:03What Ben doesn't know is that the first beer he's having this holiday,
0:47:03 > 0:47:07he's buying from his dad's girlfriend.
0:47:12 > 0:47:13Oh! What are you doing?
0:47:14 > 0:47:16Shh.
0:47:16 > 0:47:19I went out there, saw Ben and the boys,
0:47:19 > 0:47:22and they was all like chatting and they came over for a drink
0:47:22 > 0:47:26and I was just like, "Oh my god, what am I going to do?"
0:47:26 > 0:47:29- Go on, Benny.- Get it down you, mate.
0:47:29 > 0:47:33- Right.- In one. You can't do that. - Show us how it's done.
0:47:33 > 0:47:35Thanks to a good holiday.
0:47:35 > 0:47:36He'll do it, he'll neck it so quick.
0:47:36 > 0:47:38Do it!
0:47:39 > 0:47:42Oh, Benny!
0:47:42 > 0:47:45And down. Get in.
0:47:45 > 0:47:49- Well done, mate. - Wow.- Oh, bless him. At least he's had a drink.
0:47:49 > 0:47:52This is my party piece from a few months ago,
0:47:52 > 0:47:56and I've kind of missed it, but I'm back on the water from now on.
0:47:56 > 0:48:00It's been great to watch him have fun. He's so strong-headed, he's back to water already.
0:48:00 > 0:48:03I'm really looking forward to seeing him tomorrow.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06Happy with what they've seen, James scarpers,
0:48:06 > 0:48:10and still dressed as a snowman, Kelly tries to.
0:48:17 > 0:48:18It's been a big night for Ben,
0:48:18 > 0:48:21but he and his mates also decide to call it a night.
0:48:21 > 0:48:26I had my first beer in more than 125 days.
0:48:26 > 0:48:29It felt different. It was good to do that with the lads
0:48:29 > 0:48:32and, er, just celebrate the holiday.
0:48:32 > 0:48:34I'm going to miss this place.
0:48:43 > 0:48:45After a week of spying,
0:48:45 > 0:48:48the time has finally come for Sharon to reveal herself to her son.
0:48:48 > 0:48:52The Purlaid Crew are in a bar, having a round of blind shots.
0:48:52 > 0:48:55I can smell shit in front of me already.
0:48:55 > 0:48:58What Chase doesn't know is his mum is on her way.
0:48:58 > 0:49:00Really happy to see Chase,
0:49:00 > 0:49:03but still there's a lot of things that are unsettling me,
0:49:03 > 0:49:05which I will be pulling on.
0:49:05 > 0:49:08You know, the 29-year-old girl for one, going off.
0:49:08 > 0:49:10Need to know whether there was any safety
0:49:10 > 0:49:12and whether he was decent.
0:49:12 > 0:49:14Erm, alcohol consumption.
0:49:14 > 0:49:15To be honest with you,
0:49:15 > 0:49:18it's quite hard because there's so much I want to say.
0:49:18 > 0:49:22But I am really happy, I'm just so excited to see him. I want a hug.
0:49:22 > 0:49:23Can you imagine his face?
0:49:23 > 0:49:26- No. My little baby. - It's going to be a picture.
0:49:26 > 0:49:27- Merci.- Thank you.
0:49:27 > 0:49:29Chase is already downing his shots...
0:49:29 > 0:49:30Oh my gosh!
0:49:30 > 0:49:34..but is he ready for the shock of seeing Mum?
0:49:34 > 0:49:35Bruv... >
0:49:38 > 0:49:41- Oh, that was fucking disgusting. - That weren't fantastic.
0:49:41 > 0:49:43HE COUGHS
0:49:43 > 0:49:46- Hey, I need water, bruv. - Don't have water, mate.
0:49:46 > 0:49:49- Oh, my gosh!- What?
0:49:49 > 0:49:51Oh my gosh.
0:49:51 > 0:49:54THEY SCREAM
0:49:59 > 0:50:01- Hello, Chase. - Here you go, Mum.- No way.
0:50:03 > 0:50:07I'm just downing it, man, this is a shock mate, eh?
0:50:07 > 0:50:09Have you been here the whole time? No way!
0:50:09 > 0:50:11Can I have a hug anyway?
0:50:11 > 0:50:14Oh!
0:50:14 > 0:50:16So cute, man.
0:50:16 > 0:50:18Now it's time for strict mum, Sharon,
0:50:18 > 0:50:19to put him in the firing line.
0:50:19 > 0:50:21And that's enough to sober anyone up.
0:50:21 > 0:50:25You're sort of suffering from a bit of a crook neck or something.
0:50:25 > 0:50:29- I'm just saying as in, you know... keeping it kind of safe, Chase. - I WAS safe.
0:50:29 > 0:50:34Maybe it was where you just didn't act a bit too cocky about it and cocksure,
0:50:34 > 0:50:36you know, cos you have hurt your neck.
0:50:36 > 0:50:39- I feel all right now. - But do you understand what I mean, though, Chase?
0:50:39 > 0:50:43- Yeah.- And like, now we go to the alcohol bit.
0:50:43 > 0:50:47- What I saw was worrying.- I did drink a lot, I'm not going to deny it.
0:50:47 > 0:50:50You don't need to take that much alcohol to be you.
0:50:50 > 0:50:52Cos you're not... You're a confident guy.
0:50:52 > 0:50:55I don't even drink alcohol at home, like...
0:50:55 > 0:50:57But this is it, that's why it was a shock for me. Who raised you?
0:50:57 > 0:51:00- You.- Right and... - That's what I said.
0:51:00 > 0:51:01No, what I mean is I raised you, yeah,
0:51:01 > 0:51:04so it's a mother that's raised you, isn't it?
0:51:04 > 0:51:07I'm a woman, aren't I Chase? And with this girl, the 29-year-old.
0:51:07 > 0:51:10All I'm saying is, I went back to her apartment,
0:51:10 > 0:51:12she had an after-party and that's all,
0:51:12 > 0:51:14and I slept, literally, on the sofa.
0:51:14 > 0:51:17Of course I care what Mum thinks.
0:51:17 > 0:51:19Like, I know if she thinks I'm doing wrong,
0:51:19 > 0:51:21then I know for a fact I'm doing wrong.
0:51:21 > 0:51:25- I'm sorry for worrying you.- Chase, what I've seen, it has been good.
0:51:25 > 0:51:28There was things you said that fundamentally made me feel,
0:51:28 > 0:51:32"Oh, he does appreciate me and he does appreciate his values,"
0:51:32 > 0:51:35and I want to at least let go a bit of those reins Chase, knowing that,
0:51:35 > 0:51:38- you know what...- I still got the values in me.- Yeah.- Yeah, I know.
0:51:38 > 0:51:40I'm looking at it and thinking,
0:51:40 > 0:51:46"I've seen another side of Chase that I would never had the opportunity to see,"
0:51:46 > 0:51:47so it's good for me.
0:51:47 > 0:51:50Cos I know he's a good boy and I know now that, you know what?
0:51:50 > 0:51:52"You're all right, you've got standards."
0:51:52 > 0:51:56And for me it's an eye-opener because I can back off a bit now.
0:51:56 > 0:52:00He has made mistakes, but then we have to learn by our mistakes.
0:52:00 > 0:52:05And I do think he is going to learn by them cos it's been emotional, it's been absolute fun.
0:52:05 > 0:52:10This is an experience I'm not going to forget.
0:52:22 > 0:52:24As the Dover boys return their ski equipment,
0:52:24 > 0:52:27Ben's dad James, and his partner, Kelly,
0:52:27 > 0:52:29are preparing to reveal themselves to him.
0:52:29 > 0:52:33I'm really proud of Ben. He seems to have grown up a bit this week.
0:52:33 > 0:52:36I know it sounds impossible to have grown up in five days,
0:52:36 > 0:52:40but he seems to have grown up and shown us a different side to him
0:52:40 > 0:52:43that we, obviously, have never seen before.
0:52:43 > 0:52:45Yeah, I'm absolutely gutted the holiday's over.
0:52:45 > 0:52:47I just felt I was picking up the skiing,
0:52:47 > 0:52:49the nights out have become a bit better.
0:52:51 > 0:52:55With James and Kelly hiding in a broom cupboard out the back of the store,
0:52:55 > 0:52:58Ben is oblivious his dad is about to appear.
0:52:58 > 0:53:01The one thing I won't miss is walking around in these boots.
0:53:01 > 0:53:04Oh!
0:53:06 > 0:53:08- Bonjour, Ben.- Oh, God!
0:53:08 > 0:53:11- We've been watching you all week. - No way.
0:53:20 > 0:53:22We've got to have some talking haven't we?
0:53:22 > 0:53:24Yeah, yeah, we have.
0:53:24 > 0:53:25Come here, you.
0:53:32 > 0:53:35It's been an emotional week for father and son,
0:53:35 > 0:53:37but Ben still has some explaining to do.
0:53:37 > 0:53:40I can't believe you got that tattoo.
0:53:40 > 0:53:43I don't think any of us thought that I would get it done,
0:53:43 > 0:53:46but I really want it and it does mean something to me.
0:53:46 > 0:53:48When I look back in years to come,
0:53:48 > 0:53:51that'll probably remind me of this holiday.
0:53:51 > 0:53:55- Obviously, I've seen some of the things you'd said in the week.- Yeah.
0:53:55 > 0:53:59And when you worry about your looks and what people think of you...
0:53:59 > 0:54:02- Yeah.- If people don't like you for who you are...- Yeah...
0:54:02 > 0:54:03..you really shouldn't worry.
0:54:03 > 0:54:06What this week's done, it has shown that me and you,
0:54:06 > 0:54:07we obviously need to talk...
0:54:07 > 0:54:12- Definitely.- And one things that obviously upset me the other day
0:54:12 > 0:54:16was that you was like, "Erm, I can't talk to my dad,"
0:54:16 > 0:54:19and that really upset me and made me feel that I've let you down.
0:54:19 > 0:54:21No, you haven't, no. Definitely not.
0:54:21 > 0:54:25Erm, and for years I've, all I've done is concentrated on working,
0:54:25 > 0:54:26you know, to provide for you,
0:54:26 > 0:54:31- and probably not been there in other ways because I've been so busy. - Yeah, exactly.
0:54:31 > 0:54:35Erm, and it has affected me and, and the last few days has been quite difficult.
0:54:35 > 0:54:39- Yeah, been hard for me as well. - Yeah, yeah.
0:54:39 > 0:54:43- Erm, and obviously, now we know these things...- Mmm.
0:54:43 > 0:54:46- ..we both need to, to work on it. - Get closer, yeah.
0:54:46 > 0:54:48I mean, if we'd never been away this week,
0:54:48 > 0:54:51this would have gone on and on and we'd have grown apart.
0:54:51 > 0:54:54You know, it's been quite an upsetting week,
0:54:54 > 0:54:57- although it's been good to hear you say these things.- Yeah.
0:54:57 > 0:55:01- We certainly need to... - Get closer.- ..get closer.
0:55:01 > 0:55:03- But I promise you now...- Yeah.
0:55:03 > 0:55:06..on the way forward, that I'll be there for you
0:55:06 > 0:55:08- and we will try and do more together.- Yeah.
0:55:11 > 0:55:14Oh!
0:55:17 > 0:55:19It'll be fine.
0:55:20 > 0:55:22- Right, no crying.- No crying.
0:55:22 > 0:55:27I feel really lucky to have been able to come out here and share this experience with Ben.
0:55:27 > 0:55:29I think if we hadn't done this,
0:55:29 > 0:55:33we would never have known the issues that we've got between us as a family.
0:55:33 > 0:55:36It has made me think how hard I've got to work
0:55:36 > 0:55:38to make a relationship with Dad work.
0:55:38 > 0:55:41There's not a lot I really wanted to say.
0:55:41 > 0:55:45It's just, like, I do really love you. I might...
0:55:45 > 0:55:49Come on, it's all right. I know, mate, I do know.
0:55:52 > 0:55:54Oh, God.
0:55:57 > 0:55:59- I love you, mate. - I love you too.
0:56:07 > 0:56:10Next time - a party-hard student lets rip...
0:56:10 > 0:56:13We do what we want!
0:56:13 > 0:56:15..and a mummy's boy let's loose...
0:56:15 > 0:56:18I just like being in the spotlight.
0:56:18 > 0:56:20Who wouldn't enjoy people loving you?
0:56:20 > 0:56:22..for a week of excess in the snow.
0:56:22 > 0:56:24I'm not sure what his name is.
0:56:26 > 0:56:29- What the hell are you doing here? - LAUGHTER
0:56:29 > 0:56:31I've been Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parent-ed!
0:56:31 > 0:56:33- Snow.- Snow, you plonker.
