0:08:31 > 0:08:36- Hang on. The boarding - doesn't line up with the top.
0:08:37 > 0:08:39- We'll have to sort it out.
0:08:42 > 0:08:45- All together now. Yee-hah!
0:08:45 > 0:08:48- There are cowboys on the yard.
0:08:53 > 0:08:56- We made a mistake.
0:08:56 > 0:09:00- We put those in the wrong place, - but we've swapped them over.
0:09:00 > 0:09:03- We need to swap these over - and those two as well.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06- There's a lot - of swapping over to do!
0:09:08 > 0:09:10- 10 minutes left, lads.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15- Time's almost up...
0:09:15 > 0:09:18- ..and I don't know - if they'll finish in time.

0:09:19 > 0:09:22- How close will it be, Lleu?- - It'll be close...
0:09:22 > 0:09:24- ..but fingers crossed we'll do it.
0:09:25 > 0:09:27- I don't know who looks like a model.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31- All the lads look like models - in their own way.
0:09:31 > 0:09:33- Just look at them!
0:09:34 > 0:09:36- Less talking, - more action, alright, Lleu?
0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Does anyone stand out for you?
0:09:39 > 0:09:41- Does anyone stand out for you?- - Gethin did the carpentry...

0:09:57 > 0:10:01- Two minutes to go. Get a move on.
0:10:10 > 0:10:14- The catwalk's finished, but have the - builders done enough to please Adam?
0:10:15 > 0:10:17- That doesn't look right.
0:10:18 > 0:10:21- The first task is over. - Put your tools down and in you come.
0:10:26 > 0:10:28- A good job, on the whole.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35- It hasn't been cut properly.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38- There's a piece on this side - without screws.
0:10:40 > 0:10:45- This should've been straightened - before the wood was fitted.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48- One the whole, good work.
0:10:51 > 0:10:54- The first challenge is over. - Great job.
0:10:54 > 0:10:58- It wouldn't look out of place - in Milan. I'd walk down it.

0:12:34 > 0:12:36- Today you're selling - your personality.
0:12:37 > 0:12:41- If you have a signature move - - a wink or a smile...
0:12:42 > 0:12:46- ..a pop of the collar, a brush - of the shoulder or a point...
0:12:46 > 0:12:49- ..or if you have a good body, - don't be afraid to show it off.
0:12:50 > 0:12:52- Whatever you do, do it with purpose.
0:12:52 > 0:12:56- You'd better get ready. - Good luck, boys. Off you go.
0:12:56 > 0:12:59- As our builders - prepare for their close-ups...

0:13:25 > 0:13:30- I've never worked with builders for - models but I'm sure it'll be fun.
0:13:31 > 0:13:33- I'm nervous now.
0:13:33 > 0:13:38- I'm feeling - quite confident about today.
0:13:38 > 0:13:40- I'm looking forward to it.
0:13:40 > 0:13:44- I've got a couple of moves already - but I'll see how I get on.
0:13:47 > 0:13:50- They're taking photos, - so there's no point.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53- I was going to do that, - but she'll catch me doing that.
0:13:55 > 0:13:59- Poor dabs. They look - like lambs to the slaughter.
0:13:59 > 0:14:03- After building the catwalk, - who'll be the best strutter?
0:14:03 > 0:14:06- As long as the stage holds up, - that is!
0:14:07 > 0:14:08- Mike to go first.

0:15:02 > 0:15:04- Dewi.
0:15:04 > 0:15:05- Dewi.- - I'm a little bit nervous.
0:15:06 > 0:15:09- I've been practising in the - machine's mirror but it cracked!
0:15:10 > 0:15:12- I don't know how it'll go.
0:15:12 > 0:15:16- There's no danger of you cracking - any mirrors this time, Dewi.
0:15:18 > 0:15:19- Gavin.
0:15:19 > 0:15:21- Gavin.- - I'm a plumber, not a model.
0:15:21 > 0:15:25- It's totally different - to my day job.
0:15:25 > 0:15:27- I might as well give it a shot.
0:15:29 > 0:15:33- I don't know how it went but I hope - they liked it. It was off-the-cuff.
0:15:34 > 0:15:36- I posed a bit.
0:15:38 > 0:15:39- Owain.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- Owain.- - I'm scared but I want to have a go.
0:15:42 > 0:15:44- It's just a laugh.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51- This one knows how to wink.
0:15:51 > 0:15:52- Lleu.
0:15:52 > 0:15:54- Lleu.- - It doesn't compare to my day job.
0:15:55 > 0:15:59- I'm a bit nervous. I hope - the bees' knees won't let me down.
0:15:59 > 0:16:01- I want to make Nain proud.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Has Nain seen that tongue?
0:16:13 > 0:16:16- It went well. - I saw Dylan and broke into a sweat.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19- It's getting serious now.
0:16:19 > 0:16:21- Kyle.
0:16:22 > 0:16:24- I'm ready - and I'm just going to go for it.
0:16:30 > 0:16:33- Oh, can you - slow it down a touch, please?
0:16:33 > 0:16:35- Mm!
0:16:41 > 0:16:42- Hedd.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54- I didn't know what to expect - but I wasn't expecting that!
0:17:06 > 0:17:08- I just hope Mam's not watching.
0:17:08 > 0:17:11- No, but the rest of Wales are, Hedd!
0:17:11 > 0:17:15- The challenge is over now. - You can relax now, boys.
0:17:16 > 0:17:20- Time for Dylan, Catrin and Harri - to choose who stays and who goes.
0:17:23 > 0:17:27- Looking at the photos in front of - us, we have our work cut out for us.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- Do you know - who you want to eliminate?
0:17:31 > 0:17:35- There are definitely two. - I know they're going home.
0:17:35 > 0:17:40- We have to eliminate four today.
0:17:40 > 0:17:45- I'm really disappointed with him - because he's so handsome.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47- He has so much potential.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50- He didn't cope very well - on the catwalk.
0:17:50 > 0:17:52- He doesn't have any personality.
0:17:53 > 0:17:56- I agree with you on the catwalk - and in the photo.
0:17:57 > 0:18:02- He doesn't show much personality, - but if you saw him this morning...

0:18:14 > 0:18:17- I don't know - how you can't agree with me.
0:18:18 > 0:18:21- Because he walked down the catwalk - with his head down.
0:18:22 > 0:18:25- He lacks confidence - but we can work on that.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29- He's got a long way to go - if you pick him.
0:18:30 > 0:18:31- Alright, moving on.

0:21:01 > 0:21:05- Everyone so far has gone through, - but I have a feeling...
0:21:06 > 0:21:08- ..that's about to change.
0:21:20 > 0:21:24- I let myself down on the catwalk. - I rushed it at the end.
0:21:24 > 0:21:29- I could've helped out a bit more - this morning building the catwalk.
0:21:29 > 0:21:30- But it's fine.
