Summer has come to the mountain.

0:00:020:00:04

Midges are brutal today.

0:00:090:00:12

Welcome to Scotland.

0:00:120:00:13

Argh! This is beautiful. Argh!

0:00:150:00:17

Whee-hoo!

0:00:180:00:21

It's been a long, hard winter

0:00:210:00:25

but the summer season brings thousands of visitors

0:00:250:00:27

to Scotland's top outdoor adventure playground.

0:00:270:00:30

And for the people of Cairngorm,

0:00:330:00:35

that brings new challenges.

0:00:350:00:37

We've just discovered a gas leak.

0:00:380:00:40

In this episode, Ruari and Frank go diving.

0:00:460:00:49

Here's a lesson on how to drown your children.

0:00:490:00:51

Drag them up a loch in a powerboat.

0:00:510:00:53

The mountain team says goodbye to a piece of skiing history.

0:00:560:01:00

-It could have ran for ever.

-No, it couldn't have.

0:01:000:01:02

I could have kept it going.

0:01:020:01:05

And Johnny calls on big brother Andy to train up new staff.

0:01:050:01:09

That was your fault.

0:01:090:01:10

Welcome to summer on the mountain.

0:01:130:01:16

Whoa, it's windy up here.

0:01:160:01:19

Summer has arrived on Cairngorm.

0:01:340:01:36

Ruari Law is on fencing duty,

0:01:480:01:51

already preparing the ski runs for next season.

0:01:510:01:54

When it's sunny like this, it's perfect cos there's a wee breeze

0:01:540:01:57

that's keeping the midges off and the sun's shining,

0:01:570:02:01

getting a tan.

0:02:010:02:03

Going to try and enjoy my weekends

0:02:050:02:06

and get out diving as much as possible.

0:02:060:02:09

He's also got the small matter of his wedding to plan.

0:02:160:02:19

Ruari and Adele have been together for the past eight years.

0:02:210:02:24

She quickly discovered that

0:02:250:02:26

loving Ruari also means loving his ferrets,

0:02:260:02:29

Jock, Buddy and Feisty.

0:02:290:02:31

Feisty's a lot bigger and he's a bit more energetic.

0:02:310:02:35

I really love them. They're great.

0:02:350:02:39

There we go.

0:02:390:02:40

There's just a month to go until the big day.

0:02:400:02:43

Wedding planning has kind of taken over everything.

0:02:430:02:45

We've got a lot to organise ourselves,

0:02:450:02:47

so that's been quite time-consuming.

0:02:470:02:49

So far, Ruari hasn't had time to indulge his passion for diving

0:02:510:02:54

but the wedding menu is giving him a perfect excuse -

0:02:540:02:58

it's scallops for starters.

0:02:580:02:59

So he's roped in his dad, Frank, for a wee expedition.

0:03:000:03:03

I can hardly even carry the scallop bag, never mind the contents.

0:03:030:03:07

They're heading off to the West Coast and the world's best scallops.

0:03:160:03:19

Perfect.

0:03:220:03:23

To give them a hand,

0:03:250:03:26

they've enlisted that help of Frank's old diving buddy, Bruce.

0:03:260:03:29

This is it, Ruari. No scallops, no wedding feast -

0:03:290:03:33

it's going to be fish and chips.

0:03:330:03:35

While Bruce dives using oxygen tanks, Ruari's opted to free dive.

0:03:360:03:40

This means he's got to hold his breath for up to

0:03:480:03:50

two lung-busting minutes at a time.

0:03:500:03:52

To feed the 80 wedding guests,

0:03:540:03:56

they need to find an impressive 240 scallops...

0:03:560:04:00

..so Frank's brought him to his favoured location.

0:04:010:04:04

We found it years and years ago by kind of accident

0:04:040:04:07

and it's a great, quiet spot.

0:04:070:04:09

I think I've been coming here for over 30 years.

0:04:090:04:12

But so far Frank's secret spot is a scallop-free zone.

0:04:120:04:15

Did you try right in this gully, right in here?

0:04:170:04:19

Ruari's diving to depths of up to 12 metres

0:04:230:04:25

to hand-pick the shellfish.

0:04:250:04:27

This is a traditional, sustainable way of protecting the scallop beds.

0:04:290:04:33

That's the beauty of diving for scallops

0:04:330:04:35

rather than dredging for them.

0:04:350:04:37

You can leave the habitat perfect, the seabed perfect,

0:04:370:04:40

rather than dredgers coming in and smashing it all up.

0:04:400:04:43

That's the theory, but today it's not working out.

0:04:430:04:47

-There's not much there.

-OK.

0:04:480:04:51

So, with no time to waste, they're moving quickly to a new bay...

0:04:530:04:57

with Ruari in tow.

0:04:570:04:59

Here's a lesson on how to drown your children.

0:05:000:05:03

Drag them up a loch in a powerboat.

0:05:030:05:04

In Aviemore, the good weather is bringing in the visitors,

0:05:200:05:24

and there's one local who always draws a crowd.

0:05:240:05:27

-Hi, Jill.

-Hi.

0:05:270:05:28

How many have we got tonight, darling?

0:05:280:05:31

-53.

-53? Oh, it's busy, eh?

0:05:310:05:33

Have you got all the tatties on and that, aye?

0:05:330:05:36

Spud the Piper is playing one of his favourite gigs -

0:05:360:05:39

the Strathspey Steam Railway.

0:05:390:05:41

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. How are you all doing?

0:05:450:05:49

If anybody wants a picture in beside me, just jump in.

0:05:490:05:52

I don't bite too much.

0:05:520:05:54

-How are you tonight? Are you all right?

-Really good, thank you.

0:05:560:05:58

-Is this your first time on the train?

-No, we came last year.

0:05:580:06:01

-So, did you come off it steaming?

-THEY LAUGH

0:06:010:06:04

Cheers. Thanks.

0:06:040:06:06

-It's our wedding anniversary.

-You deserve three medals.

0:06:130:06:16

Hey!

0:06:250:06:26

Spud is something of a local legend

0:06:260:06:28

and his summer's getting booked up fast.

0:06:280:06:31

I've never been busier in my life.

0:06:310:06:32

You know, you get the phone ringing,

0:06:320:06:34

"Hello, can you pipe at my wedding tomorrow?"

0:06:340:06:36

"Eh, I don't know, hen. What time?"

0:06:360:06:39

You know, it's just mental. It's no...

0:06:390:06:42

There's no rhyme or reason for what you're going to get asked

0:06:420:06:45

to do at this time of year.

0:06:450:06:47

Back home with his wife, Karen, the phone's been ringing again,

0:06:480:06:52

with what could be his biggest gig yet.

0:06:520:06:55

'We want to have you down there

0:06:550:06:56

'sort of when the gates open and everything.

0:06:560:06:59

'I'm just waiting to see what else they would like you to do.'

0:06:590:07:02

Mumford & Sons, one of Britain's biggest bands,

0:07:020:07:04

is headlining a music festival in Aviemore...

0:07:040:07:07

'Now, Mumford are actually going to go on first themselves.'

0:07:070:07:10

..and they're looking for a very special opening act.

0:07:100:07:13

'I'm trying to get as much in place as I can beforehand.'

0:07:130:07:17

OK, aye, no, no, totally.

0:07:170:07:19

OK. Well, that's fine.

0:07:190:07:21

Just keep in contact with me, mate.

0:07:210:07:23

I'll just wait to hear from you and we can take it from there.

0:07:230:07:27

-'Yeah, all right.'

-Thank you so much.

0:07:270:07:30

-Have a nice day.

-'And you. Cheers.'

0:07:300:07:32

Cheers, thanks, bye-bye. Bye.

0:07:320:07:34

Probably the biggest festival ever here.

0:07:380:07:41

I mean,

0:07:410:07:42

there's 25,000 people coming to see me.

0:07:420:07:45

-LAUGHTER

-You know.

0:07:450:07:47

In his dreams!

0:07:510:07:52

For the first time in his life, Spud is lost for words.

0:07:530:07:57

Aye.

0:07:570:07:58

# I will wait, I will wait for you. #

0:08:030:08:07

BELL RINGS

0:08:110:08:12

At the high school, the students are heading towards the end of term.

0:08:160:08:20

Like the rest of her class,

0:08:210:08:23

17-year-old Rona Strivens is preparing for her upcoming exams.

0:08:230:08:27

So do we just need to find R

0:08:270:08:29

-and then find the midpoint between Q and R?

-Yeah.

0:08:290:08:33

But when she's not studying, all Rona's time is spent on an activity

0:08:330:08:36

that often leaves her battered and bruised.

0:08:360:08:39

What's the worst injury?

0:08:390:08:41

Probably the cracked ribs, or my concussion last year.

0:08:410:08:44

If I hadn't been wearing my neck brace, I'd have broken my neck.

0:08:440:08:48

-I nearly broke my shoulder last year.

-You just don't stop.

0:08:480:08:51

You're just like, "I've got a broken face but it's fine."

0:08:510:08:54

This weekend, like every other,

0:08:560:08:58

exams are forgotten and Rona takes to the hills.

0:08:580:09:01

# I just came to say hello

0:09:050:09:08

# Hello... #

0:09:110:09:13

As a downhill mountain racer, she can reach speeds of up to 50mph.

0:09:150:09:19

My friends from school, a lot of them are just like,

0:09:230:09:25

"Why would you want to throw yourself down a mountain?"

0:09:250:09:28

But...everyone has their own thing that they enjoy.

0:09:280:09:32

She's now racing competitively

0:09:340:09:36

and has already been crowned British Youth Champion for two years running.

0:09:360:09:40

I started when I was about eight then I decided

0:09:420:09:46

I wasn't very keen on going uphill, I just liked coming down.

0:09:460:09:49

So I started properly racing three years ago.

0:09:490:09:52

It's so much more exciting.

0:09:520:09:54

Much more risk to it cos you're going so much faster.

0:09:540:09:57

This weekend Rona's competing in the Scottish Championships at Glen Coe.

0:10:000:10:04

I've let some air out of my back wheel cos it was

0:10:100:10:12

skittering about too much.

0:10:120:10:15

-So there's a distinct shortage of tubes.

-I'm sure someone will have...

0:10:150:10:19

As ever, her mum is there as driver, number-one fan and chief mechanic.

0:10:190:10:25

This is the second time the cassette's done that.

0:10:250:10:28

Usually it's fine. I'll just head up again, I think.

0:10:280:10:32

I spend my life drinking coffee while she does the work.

0:10:330:10:36

She's, like, been there for me since I first started racing,

0:10:390:10:42

so she's quite good at the bike mechanic's side,

0:10:420:10:44

so if there's something that I don't quite get what's wrong,

0:10:440:10:47

she's more likely to be able to fix it.

0:10:470:10:49

It was embarrassing how loose the spokes were as well.

0:10:490:10:52

I check them after every run.

0:10:520:10:54

Rona secures a very respectable second place in the race,

0:10:570:11:01

despite still recovering from cracked ribs.

0:11:010:11:04

Today, though, is about avoiding further injury

0:11:060:11:09

and putting in some good runs.

0:11:090:11:11

I was just making sure I was hitting the right lines.

0:11:110:11:14

There were a few in the muddy bit that I didn't quite get

0:11:140:11:16

but I'll just keep going till I feel I've got it right.

0:11:160:11:19

Her biggest test is yet to come.

0:11:210:11:23

This summer, Scotland hosts the Mountain Bike world Cup

0:11:250:11:28

and Rona will be there to compete against the world's best.

0:11:280:11:32

I'm really nervous. Just something I never thought I'd do.

0:11:320:11:36

It'll be the biggest crowd I've ever raced in front of.

0:11:360:11:39

It's been my dream since I was, like, eight.

0:11:390:11:41

And in three weeks' time she hopes to make that dream come true.

0:11:430:11:46

For Cairngorm's head of operations, Colin Matthew,

0:11:570:12:00

summer is an opportunity to prepare for the next winter season.

0:12:000:12:04

Top of his to-do list is the removal of the Shieling Tow,

0:12:040:12:09

a piece of skiing history.

0:12:090:12:11

50 years old. We got it second-hand.

0:12:110:12:13

Well, not me, I wasn't here then.

0:12:150:12:17

First put in in 1963,

0:12:240:12:26

the Shieling Tow witnessed the birth of the Scottish skiing industry.

0:12:260:12:30

But, like all the tows, it takes a pounding during the winter

0:12:350:12:38

and it's now showing its age.

0:12:380:12:41

It doesn't really suit our purposes any more.

0:12:410:12:43

Takes a lot of digging out after storms with the machines,

0:12:430:12:46

the machines can't fit there.

0:12:460:12:47

It's too narrow. It's hard to get spare parts for it.

0:12:470:12:51

We're removing it

0:12:510:12:53

and putting in a modern tow.

0:12:530:12:55

The new tow is due to arrive in the next few weeks

0:12:570:13:00

so the priority is to get the old one dug out and moved.

0:13:000:13:03

Cavalry's arrived.

0:13:080:13:10

More used to keeping it moving in the worst of weathers,

0:13:100:13:13

the fitters pile in to take it to bits.

0:13:130:13:15

Cut the bolts off the end, slide the unit out

0:13:160:13:19

and then cut the frame off and they'll lift the frame out.

0:13:190:13:24

Not ones for sentiment,

0:13:250:13:27

Adam and his team will have the tow down in 20 minutes.

0:13:270:13:31

Colin's keen to find a home for it if he can.

0:13:330:13:36

We have offered it to ski clubs around the country...

0:13:360:13:39

if anyone's wanting an old lift, but no takers yet.

0:13:390:13:42

The Shieling Tow's actually on eBay.

0:13:420:13:44

The bidding runs out tonight so we've gotta get it removed.

0:13:440:13:48

The fitters may not stand on ceremony, but they've all

0:13:480:13:51

invested a lot of effort over the years on the Shieling Tow.

0:13:510:13:55

Bit of history there.

0:13:550:13:57

Still sad to see it go, it's been a good lift.

0:13:570:13:59

Can't go on for ever.

0:13:590:14:01

-It could have ran for ever!

-No, it couldn't.

0:14:010:14:03

I could have kept it going.

0:14:030:14:05

Might have to put it back in before the winter

0:14:130:14:15

if this other tow doesn't arrive.

0:14:150:14:17

See you later!

0:14:190:14:20

On the shores of Loch Insh the Freshwater's family business

0:14:360:14:40

is in the midst of a busy day.

0:14:400:14:42

Quinn's down there, Scott's at the TP, Martin,

0:14:440:14:48

windsurfers are down there, sailors in the back...

0:14:480:14:51

Jonny's just taking on the running of the business

0:14:510:14:53

after his dad passed away.

0:14:530:14:55

How's it going?

0:14:550:14:56

Clive's picture hangs on the restaurant wall

0:14:580:15:00

and his presence is still very much felt by Jonny.

0:15:000:15:04

In many ways this whole business is his legacy.

0:15:050:15:08

You walk in the place and it just feels like Clive

0:15:080:15:11

and always will do, I'm sure.

0:15:110:15:13

But Jonny's got his hands full.

0:15:140:15:16

As well as running the 140-bed residential sailing school,

0:15:160:15:20

complete with on-site restaurant, sail hire and shop...

0:15:200:15:23

All right, guys, let's gather round.

0:15:230:15:25

..he's also greeting new arrivals,

0:15:250:15:27

and instructing groups on the water.

0:15:270:15:29

Here you are, buddy.

0:15:310:15:32

More staff is urgently required...

0:15:320:15:35

Keep paddling at the front.

0:15:350:15:36

..so he's called in big brother, Andy.

0:15:360:15:38

OK, guys, let's go.

0:15:380:15:40

He's there to test out sailing instructors

0:15:400:15:42

so they can meet the exacting standards set by their father.

0:15:420:15:46

It's always a challenge getting hold of staff

0:15:460:15:49

so you ended up having to run your own staff training

0:15:490:15:52

to get people good enough to then do the job.

0:15:520:15:55

There's a lot of great people from all over the world that have

0:15:550:15:58

been part of Loch Insh. Thousands of staff have come through and just -

0:15:580:16:01

he worked them to the bone!

0:16:010:16:03

We'd have massive, massive battles between me and him,

0:16:030:16:07

when he treated people badly, you know?

0:16:070:16:10

And that now is...

0:16:100:16:14

never to happen again.

0:16:140:16:16

On your feet.

0:16:180:16:19

While Jonny supervises a group of novice canoeists...

0:16:190:16:23

Let's go in the opposite tack...

0:16:230:16:24

..Andy is putting the potential recruits

0:16:240:16:26

through their advanced training.

0:16:260:16:28

'There's a lot of work to do

0:16:280:16:30

'so we just need to work on the staffing issues that we've got.'

0:16:300:16:34

They have to prove they have the right stuff to prove to join

0:16:400:16:43

the roll call of Loch Insh sailing instructors.

0:16:430:16:45

So, do you know what happened there?

0:16:500:16:53

I wasn't quite moving my hoist...

0:16:530:16:55

You were a bit too side-on and so it blew through the gap.

0:16:550:16:58

We'll get up, we'll do it again.

0:16:580:17:01

While the three boys are struggling,

0:17:010:17:03

the other boat is showing a bit more promise.

0:17:030:17:05

You should let your main out a little bit more, if you can,

0:17:050:17:08

to protect your spinnaker.

0:17:080:17:11

I think she knows what she's doing

0:17:110:17:12

so I've got high hopes for this boat.

0:17:120:17:15

OK, here we go.

0:17:150:17:17

Spinnaker hoist, OK, sails up.

0:17:170:17:19

Pretty good.

0:17:220:17:24

I'll leave you to it. Well done.

0:17:240:17:26

Isha's just arrived from India to get the experience Loch Insh can provide.

0:17:260:17:31

Been here two weeks and first week

0:17:310:17:34

I just froze cos it was raining and cold. This week is good.

0:17:340:17:38

Ease that sheet slightly.

0:17:420:17:43

That was your fault.

0:17:490:17:50

Just hang on to the ropes, guys. Each of you hold on.

0:17:520:17:55

Get away, get away quick before it capsizes.

0:17:550:17:58

That looks nice now.

0:18:000:18:02

Still upright.

0:18:040:18:06

We've moving there slowly.

0:18:060:18:08

Back on dry land, the young hopefuls find out if they've made the grade.

0:18:120:18:15

It was difficult.

0:18:170:18:19

-It looks like you nailed it, so well done.

-Thank you.

0:18:190:18:23

We've decided to let you slip through the net.

0:18:230:18:27

Well done, buddy.

0:18:270:18:29

So it's time for a wee celebration.

0:18:290:18:32

I passed, yeah!

0:18:320:18:35

Well done for achieving what they needed to achieve.

0:18:350:18:38

These look like frankfurters.

0:18:380:18:40

-It's good to see them tackle the more difficult conditions.

-Good.

0:18:410:18:46

So they're all teaching next Monday, are they going to be up to the task?

0:18:460:18:51

Kept his capsizes down to single figures.

0:18:510:18:54

So they should...

0:18:540:18:56

THEY LAUGH

0:18:560:18:57

Everyone that's ever passed the sailing course, they get lobbed in.

0:19:020:19:05

LAUGHTER

0:19:080:19:10

-SPUD:

-We're going to the horse!

0:19:220:19:23

Are you ready? Are you going to put on your jacket?

0:19:230:19:27

Come on. Jacket on.

0:19:270:19:30

Car.

0:19:300:19:32

An apple for Marigold.

0:19:320:19:34

Spud and his wife Karen are getting ready to take their son Ewan

0:19:340:19:37

for his riding lesson.

0:19:370:19:39

-Have you got the keys?

-No.

0:19:390:19:41

-Are they at the door?

-Yeah.

0:19:410:19:43

You ready?

0:19:430:19:45

Ewan is both autistic and non-verbal

0:19:450:19:47

so Spud's got a particular way of communicating with him.

0:19:470:19:50

I've got the pics for "walk to the car",

0:19:500:19:54

"get on horse",

0:19:540:19:56

"go riding" for, like, 20 minutes,

0:19:560:19:59

and then "get in the car to get home."

0:19:590:20:01

He wouldn't even get out the car last week

0:20:010:20:03

so hopefully he'll get on Marigold

0:20:030:20:06

and everything'll be good.

0:20:060:20:08

Belt on.

0:20:080:20:10

-Look at that day.

-"Look at the day, it's all raining."

0:20:110:20:15

Come on.

0:20:220:20:23

We're going to go and see a lovely horse called Marigold

0:20:230:20:27

and also a lovely lady called Lorraine.

0:20:270:20:29

Go and stand on the blocks and do it.

0:20:290:20:31

For Spud and Karen this is more than just a riding lesson.

0:20:310:20:35

Ewan is non-verbal, he has lots of sensory issues.

0:20:360:20:40

He couldn't leave the house.

0:20:400:20:42

Life was just pure hell. It was...

0:20:420:20:45

awful beyond...anything you could have imagined.

0:20:450:20:50

And Ewan's been out of school for a year, but the thing was we didn't

0:20:500:20:56

decide to take him out of school, he literally couldn't get to school.

0:20:560:21:00

Yay! One, two, three, jump, jump, jump.

0:21:000:21:03

Getting Ewan onto the horse would be a big step forward.

0:21:030:21:06

What if I went on with you?

0:21:060:21:09

Daddy go on as well?

0:21:090:21:11

If we stopped at everything he was like that...we wouldn't ever

0:21:110:21:15

leave the house.

0:21:150:21:17

Get up there.

0:21:180:21:20

-Yay!

-Up you get.

0:21:200:21:22

It really is just patience and just kind of, you know,

0:21:220:21:25

hope for the best.

0:21:250:21:26

This way.

0:21:280:21:29

On the west coast,

0:21:390:21:40

Ruari and Frank are still searching for those elusive scallops.

0:21:400:21:44

They haven't come up completely empty-handed.

0:21:500:21:53

Let's just see what we've got in here.

0:21:530:21:55

Hey!

0:21:550:21:57

What a cracker.

0:21:570:21:58

Yum, yum.

0:21:580:22:00

But that's not going to feed 80 hungry wedding guests,

0:22:000:22:03

so frank sends Ruari down again.

0:22:030:22:06

-It looks like 12 metres.

-Why can't it ever be shallower?

0:22:060:22:11

Why can't it be shallower?

0:22:110:22:13

Why can't they be out feeding on the grass(?)

0:22:130:22:16

-Like they do in the winter(!)

-Yeah.

0:22:160:22:18

Even at this time of year these waters can be close to freezing.

0:22:200:22:24

Ruari's made around 30 dives this morning and he's getting tired.

0:22:240:22:27

Finally, Frank's experience and Ruari's persistence pay off.

0:22:330:22:37

-Whoa!

-We have scallops.

0:22:370:22:39

Good for you.

0:22:390:22:41

Their luck has turned.

0:22:410:22:42

Those are belters.

0:22:440:22:46

That's a pretty good start, isn't it?

0:22:460:22:48

Ho-ho!

0:22:540:22:56

Suddenly we have our starter.

0:22:580:23:00

Don't get much fresher than this.

0:23:040:23:06

Ten minutes out of the water.

0:23:060:23:09

Thank you kindly.

0:23:090:23:10

Mm, so good. The guests can now eat.

0:23:120:23:14

And perhaps to its surprise, the lobster gets to live another day.

0:23:170:23:21

Got plenty to eat and it's a nice female

0:23:210:23:23

so we're just going to pop it back.

0:23:230:23:27

And it'll go away and make some more for the future.

0:23:270:23:31

# Rock lobster

0:23:310:23:33

# Rock lobster

0:23:330:23:36

# Oh ah

0:23:370:23:40

# Oh ah... #

0:23:400:23:42

-PLAYFUL:

-Get up there! Get up there!

0:23:460:23:48

Get going!

0:23:480:23:50

At Ewan's riding lesson, Spud and Karen haven't given up

0:23:500:23:54

on getting him into the saddle.

0:23:540:23:56

Everything's just taken much, much more time,

0:23:560:23:59

you just have to go with it.

0:23:590:24:01

Hang on! Look!

0:24:010:24:04

This is amazing!

0:24:040:24:06

SHE LAUGHS

0:24:060:24:08

That'll keep you fit, Dad.

0:24:080:24:10

-You have a shot, Mummy.

-Yeah, right, watch me(!)

0:24:100:24:13

Right, you going on Marigold?

0:24:140:24:16

Yay, well done, good running, Ewan!

0:24:160:24:20

Finally their patience pays off.

0:24:200:24:22

One, two, three, four! Let's go!

0:24:220:24:25

Yay!

0:24:340:24:35

-Good boy!

-Yay!

0:24:350:24:38

Big smiley boy!

0:24:420:24:44

That's what it's worth.

0:24:440:24:46

I've got a midge in my lug.

0:24:480:24:51

Och, aye, it's good to see him

0:24:510:24:52

going round with his wee face smiling, isn't it?

0:24:520:24:54

I mean, that's what it's all about, like.

0:24:540:24:58

We're just chuffed to bits.

0:24:580:24:59

It's actually hard to believe he's come as far as he has.

0:24:590:25:03

You're a star, honestly.

0:25:080:25:10

Thank you. See you next week, Marigold.

0:25:100:25:13

Come on.

0:25:130:25:15

Ruari's scallops are now safely in the freezer

0:25:320:25:35

so now he's focusing on the final details for his big day.

0:25:350:25:39

Just get the last bits and bobs ready.

0:25:390:25:41

Adele's dead excited, you know, she picked up her dress the other day,

0:25:410:25:45

she picked up her wedding ring yesterday.

0:25:450:25:48

Despite what she says, she is looking forward to the honeymoon.

0:25:480:25:52

Ruari's the one who's taken on the responsibility for planning

0:25:520:25:56

the honeymoon.

0:25:560:25:57

She's agreeing to go away with me in this

0:25:570:26:00

for a fortnight on an island off the coast of Scotland.

0:26:000:26:04

His brother Nick has just come home,

0:26:040:26:06

having been living abroad for the last two years.

0:26:060:26:09

Nick came back from Indonesia

0:26:090:26:12

because I was unveiling the caravan and it's coincided nicely

0:26:120:26:15

with the wedding, so...he's been excited about this for days.

0:26:150:26:19

Beautiful.

0:26:270:26:29

# Are you ready?

0:26:390:26:41

# Are you ready?

0:26:410:26:43

# Are you ready?... #

0:26:430:26:46

Your bunk bed here.

0:26:480:26:50

Earplugs. For snorey sleepers.

0:26:510:26:54

And then here you've got your wardrobe. Always handy.

0:26:540:26:58

Mirror in there. So there's some comforts for Adele already.

0:26:580:27:03

This is the dining area which also folds out into a double bed.

0:27:030:27:07

There's reading stuff here as well.

0:27:080:27:10

Adele's favourite - fishing magazine.

0:27:100:27:13

And then you've got the kitchenette.

0:27:130:27:15

Your hob's there. Your grill.

0:27:150:27:17

And your oven. You've got your sound system here,

0:27:190:27:21

for when we're partying.

0:27:210:27:23

I can see me just doing some of my moves...

0:27:230:27:25

I'd ask you to stop that, sir.

0:27:250:27:27

THEY LAUGH

0:27:270:27:30

It's going to set the bar pretty high for any of my mates

0:27:300:27:33

getting married after me.

0:27:330:27:36

# Every woman, every man

0:27:360:27:38

# Join the caravan of love

0:27:380:27:41

# Stand up, stand up, stand up... #

0:27:410:27:46

Are you going to have cans hanging off the back?

0:27:460:27:49

I think we'll have cans hanging off the back.

0:27:490:27:51

-Then a "just married" sign.

-Yeah!

0:27:510:27:53

# Every woman, every man

0:27:530:27:56

# Join the caravan of love

0:27:560:27:59

# Stand up, stand up, stand up... #

0:27:590:28:03

Next time on The Mountain...

0:28:060:28:09

HE YELLS ..the adrenaline junkies take a jump.

0:28:090:28:11

The steam train gets a little overheated.

0:28:140:28:17

Shut the door!

0:28:170:28:19

And Rona's World Cup dreams hit the dirt.

0:28:190:28:22

Ooh!
