0:00:02 > 0:00:04This time on Tenby 24/7
0:00:04 > 0:00:08the life guards on duty for the unexpected holiday crisis.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11- All right, sweetheart.- It's hurting.
0:00:11 > 0:00:16Hoteliers Malcolm and Patrick juggle guests and a renovation project.
0:00:16 > 0:00:18We want to let it for the weekend.
0:00:18 > 0:00:22And the firemen of Tenby put on a carnival.
0:00:22 > 0:00:26Look at the crowds. It's absolutely brilliant and it's a nice day, too.
0:00:28 > 0:00:34This is seven days in the life of one of Wales' holiday hot spots.
0:00:34 > 0:00:39Seven days with the people who work here to make the holidays a treat.
0:00:39 > 0:00:42This is Tenby 24/7.
0:00:45 > 0:00:49Nestled within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park
0:00:49 > 0:00:52is the popular seaside resort of Tenby.
0:00:54 > 0:00:58Boasting three Blue Flag beaches, during the summer season
0:00:58 > 0:01:03the population swells from 5,000 people to a whopping 50,000.
0:01:05 > 0:01:09With this many visitors to the small, medieval, walled town
0:01:09 > 0:01:15traffic is a constant challenge for civil enforcement officer Barbara Powrie and her team.
0:01:15 > 0:01:20If you do South Beach and then walk up to North Beach,
0:01:20 > 0:01:25you go round and check the machines and clean the machines.
0:01:25 > 0:01:27Everybody know what they're doing?
0:01:27 > 0:01:30- What do you do if there's any problems?- Radio.
0:01:32 > 0:01:36During the summer, the walled town is closed to traffic during the day.
0:01:36 > 0:01:40It's up to Barbara and her team to enforce it.
0:01:40 > 0:01:44You've got five minutes. You've got five minutes to load.
0:01:44 > 0:01:49If she's not out in five minutes, can I ask you to park further up?
0:01:49 > 0:01:53- There we are, I'm going. - OK, no problem. Have a safe journey.
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Enjoy Tenby, bye.
0:01:55 > 0:01:59Six years ago, they did a trial about closing the town
0:01:59 > 0:02:02during the six weeks school holidays.
0:02:02 > 0:02:07to allow the tourists to walk through the town without the fear of cars.
0:02:07 > 0:02:11I just think it runs better if the town is free
0:02:11 > 0:02:16so children can run and go in and out of shops without the hassle of the traffic.
0:02:16 > 0:02:19I think it works better.
0:02:19 > 0:02:22- Good morning.- Good morning to you.
0:02:22 > 0:02:26- Are you aware that today we close at 11?- Yes, love, we've just rushed in.
0:02:26 > 0:02:32- Don't rush.- All right.- So long as you're gone by 11, that's fine.
0:02:32 > 0:02:36- Don't be rushing. - Thank you very much.- OK.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39It's a race against time for Barbara and the team
0:02:39 > 0:02:43to clear the town centre of traffic by 11 o'clock.
0:02:47 > 0:02:49Tenby grew as a holiday hotspot
0:02:49 > 0:02:51during the Georgian and Victorian periods
0:02:51 > 0:02:56and many of the hotels claim this vintage heritage.
0:02:57 > 0:03:03Overlooking the South Beach is the three-star Giltar Hotel.
0:03:04 > 0:03:08Business partners Pat Jenkins and Malcolm Brace
0:03:08 > 0:03:12have been welcoming visitors to their hotel for the last two years.
0:03:12 > 0:03:16A warm welcome to you. I'm sorry the weather isn't more cheerful.
0:03:16 > 0:03:20My name is Malcolm, one of the owners, the other owner is Patrick.
0:03:20 > 0:03:26You'll see him around and about, he'll be helping with the cases.
0:03:26 > 0:03:27Mr and Mrs Chivers.
0:03:27 > 0:03:31- "Shivers."- Think of the weather.- Yes.
0:03:31 > 0:03:36We're going to be having sunshine, you'll be out on the beach tomorrow.
0:03:36 > 0:03:37Room 415...
0:03:37 > 0:03:40Malcolm moved to Tenby for a quieter pace of life.
0:03:40 > 0:03:46Little did he know that two years later he'd be running his own holiday business.
0:03:46 > 0:03:50We came down here on a semi-retirement basis.
0:03:50 > 0:03:57After a few years, it sort of went from waiter to head waiter to general manager.
0:03:57 > 0:04:01Pat is exactly the same. He was teaching.
0:04:01 > 0:04:05I taught for 35 years. 30 years in Tenby.
0:04:05 > 0:04:08I had a chance of early retirement.
0:04:08 > 0:04:11I had six months at home, walking the dog, a bit of decorating.
0:04:11 > 0:04:14I thought, "This isn't for me."
0:04:14 > 0:04:17I've always done part-time work here.
0:04:17 > 0:04:19I had a chance of running the bar
0:04:19 > 0:04:21and then the previous owner was selling up
0:04:21 > 0:04:24and Malcolm and myself got together
0:04:24 > 0:04:28and put our offer in and the rest is history.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36- Your bags, sir.- Lovely.
0:04:36 > 0:04:39With so much invested, Malcolm and Pat's dream
0:04:39 > 0:04:43is to get their three-star hotel up to four-star quality.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46They're juggling a busy renovation
0:04:46 > 0:04:49whilst still welcoming guests into the hotel.
0:04:49 > 0:04:53- The second bag. Sorry about that. - That's all right.
0:04:53 > 0:04:57If we had the money, we'd shut for eight months
0:04:57 > 0:05:00and have the whole lot done in one go.
0:05:00 > 0:05:06Unless we win the lottery next week, we have to carry on as we are.
0:05:06 > 0:05:11- Hello, love.- Room 113. - Have you had a good day?- Lovely.
0:05:15 > 0:05:18Tenby has been called Pembrokeshire's jewel in the crown.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21One look at the beaches will tell you why.
0:05:26 > 0:05:29Thousands flock here every summer,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31keeping the local lifeguards on their toes.
0:05:35 > 0:05:38Over on the Castle Beach, a young girl has just injured her foot
0:05:38 > 0:05:42and needs urgent treatment from lifeguard Carl Amos.
0:05:42 > 0:05:44- All right.- It's hurting.
0:05:44 > 0:05:48She was over there with Dad in the rocks
0:05:48 > 0:05:52and she stepped on this sharp fishing hook.
0:05:52 > 0:05:54Straight into her foot.
0:05:54 > 0:06:01I think it went down to about here. It was quite a lot to go in.
0:06:01 > 0:06:05The catch seems worn, which is how it came out so easily
0:06:05 > 0:06:07when the dad pulled.
0:06:07 > 0:06:11It's fortunate, really, even though the injury is the same.
0:06:11 > 0:06:14It actually went right in.
0:06:14 > 0:06:17SHE SOBS
0:06:17 > 0:06:21- Can you hold that there for me? - There's a good girl. Hold it there.
0:06:22 > 0:06:24Tenby South Beach.
0:06:24 > 0:06:28We have a child here who has stood on a fishing hook and hurt her foot.
0:06:28 > 0:06:31She needs to go to the minor incident unit.
0:06:31 > 0:06:35Would it be possible for a pick-up, as their car is on South Beach? Over.
0:06:35 > 0:06:40Nothing like a trip to the hospital when you're on holiday, is there?
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Thanks very much.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44Come on, darling.
0:06:47 > 0:06:51SIRENS WAIL
0:06:51 > 0:06:54Accidents and emergencies increase over the summer
0:06:54 > 0:06:57with the town swelling with thousands of tourists.
0:07:00 > 0:07:03Tenby fire service is on a shout.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06In a local caravan park, a car has exploded into flames.
0:07:06 > 0:07:09RADIO: Three, one, Alpha, two, over...
0:07:13 > 0:07:17The firemen contain the blaze under the experienced eye
0:07:17 > 0:07:19of watch manager Dickie Lewis.
0:07:20 > 0:07:22There was an electrical fault with the car.
0:07:22 > 0:07:26They could smell smoke coming out from the dashboard.
0:07:26 > 0:07:28Then it just went on fire.
0:07:28 > 0:07:31As you can see, there's not much left of it.
0:07:31 > 0:07:37But all these tents are damaged as well with sparks coming off it.
0:07:37 > 0:07:43Luckily, no-one was hurt during the incident, due to the fire crew's fast response.
0:07:43 > 0:07:47It took a bit of putting out and that's about it, really.
0:07:47 > 0:07:50Another job done.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54But today is not just about saving lives.
0:07:54 > 0:07:57It's also the Tenby Fireman's Carnival.
0:07:57 > 0:08:00It's about fund-raising and having fun.
0:08:04 > 0:08:10Please don't ever try putting chip pans out using water.
0:08:12 > 0:08:15Watch manager Dickie Lewis is determined for today's event
0:08:15 > 0:08:18to raise more money than ever before.
0:08:20 > 0:08:22Every year we make more.
0:08:22 > 0:08:26This year, hopefully, will be our best year.
0:08:26 > 0:08:30It's a good day, a bit of cloud, bit of sun, keep them off the beach.
0:08:30 > 0:08:32But if we can beat it, we will.
0:08:32 > 0:08:37It isn't all about money, it's about putting something on for the town
0:08:37 > 0:08:40as it's a seaside resort.
0:08:40 > 0:08:46But it's nice to make money as well. I'm now Terry Wogan.
0:08:51 > 0:08:53The firemen's carnival parade later on
0:08:53 > 0:08:56will attract thousands of extra visitors to Tenby.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59BELL RINGS
0:08:59 > 0:09:05It's gone 11am. Pedestrianisation of Tenby town centre has begun.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08There's a problem going down there...
0:09:08 > 0:09:11And things aren't going too well for Babs and the traffic.
0:09:13 > 0:09:15Somebody said there's a problem in the harbour.
0:09:19 > 0:09:21And it's a pretty big one.
0:09:21 > 0:09:25This eight-tonne lorry is stuck and needs to get across town.
0:09:25 > 0:09:29What I've got to do, which is against everything I'm supposed to,
0:09:29 > 0:09:34I'm going to reverse the lorry back through town
0:09:34 > 0:09:37and we'll be walking him through.
0:09:38 > 0:09:41Can you watch your backs, please? Can you watch your backs, please?
0:09:41 > 0:09:42Thank you very much!
0:09:47 > 0:09:49Can you watch your back, please, sir?
0:09:49 > 0:09:54There's a lorry coming through and I'd hate for you to get in the way.
0:09:55 > 0:09:58There's nobody keeping him down there till five.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01He was going to be a problem for us, so let's get him out.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07Watch your backs, please!
0:10:07 > 0:10:08HORN
0:10:08 > 0:10:10A result...
0:10:10 > 0:10:12and one less traffic headache for Barbara.
0:10:15 > 0:10:19I respect the job and I want to change attitudes
0:10:19 > 0:10:23to what people are thinking about CEOs or traffic wardens.
0:10:23 > 0:10:27And I just enjoy it, it's just, I do enjoy getting up,
0:10:27 > 0:10:29I do enjoy coming into work,
0:10:29 > 0:10:32I do love working the hours and I love meeting people,
0:10:32 > 0:10:35so it isn't everything, because that would be a lie,
0:10:35 > 0:10:39it's not a dream job, but it comes pretty damn close.
0:10:39 > 0:10:42Hello. No, it's pedestrianisation now.
0:10:42 > 0:10:44If you need to go in, if you go down here,
0:10:44 > 0:10:48and follow the signs, there's a park and ride that'll bring you into town.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51OK? Thanks very much, have a nice day.
0:10:55 > 0:10:57At Pat and Malcolm's Hotel,
0:10:57 > 0:11:00they are also trying to get closer to their dream.
0:11:00 > 0:11:03Giltar Hotel, good morning, Malcolm speaking.
0:11:04 > 0:11:06In his plan for four-star status,
0:11:06 > 0:11:09Malcolm has employed an interior-designer.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14What I want to do, is I want the furniture in.
0:11:14 > 0:11:17- It depends on what welcome tray... - Furniture?- ..we have.
0:11:17 > 0:11:20It depends on what hairdryer goes on.
0:11:20 > 0:11:26Linda Hunt is transforming the hotel's standard rooms into deluxe ones.
0:11:26 > 0:11:30We're working round guests, so there can't be drilling and banging
0:11:30 > 0:11:34while people are having their lunch, or early in the morning or evenings.
0:11:34 > 0:11:37We've got a set amount of time to do those sort of things.
0:11:37 > 0:11:40And then, of course, you've got a programme in, like dominoes,
0:11:40 > 0:11:42when everything's going to happen
0:11:42 > 0:11:45and you've got a short space of time to do it.
0:11:45 > 0:11:50If it's easier to bring anything up by the lift, lads, you can do that.
0:11:50 > 0:11:53We want it ready, so we can let it for the weekend.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56And there's a wedding coming in tomorrow, so we've always got that extra room.
0:11:56 > 0:11:58It's let on the Saturday anyhow,
0:11:58 > 0:12:01so I'm hoping to have it let for tomorrow night too.
0:12:01 > 0:12:06- So the bed's going like this. - It's going that way.- Yeah.
0:12:06 > 0:12:09Such a short space of time to get it ready.
0:12:09 > 0:12:11We've really got to get it looking like
0:12:11 > 0:12:14it's been like this for a while.
0:12:14 > 0:12:17I don't want people coming in and smelling that it's wet paint,
0:12:17 > 0:12:19and that sort of thing.
0:12:19 > 0:12:22It is always tight, because we've always got
0:12:22 > 0:12:25a limited amount of time to get the rooms done.
0:12:25 > 0:12:28I'll just get in the bathroom and then out of the way.
0:12:30 > 0:12:33Over on the South Beach,
0:12:33 > 0:12:35a young crowd is starting to gather.
0:12:37 > 0:12:42Tenby is hosting the West Wales Surf Life Saving Club Championships.
0:12:42 > 0:12:45They're about to kick off.
0:12:45 > 0:12:49Some teams, Whitesands, Aber, they're here for competing. That's what they're here for.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52We're here to have a bit of fun, to get back into it, right?
0:12:52 > 0:12:56This is Angelo Vecci's second year as Tenby club captain.
0:12:56 > 0:12:58If we come back with a couple of good medals,
0:12:58 > 0:13:01and good places, then that's good, but at the end of the day
0:13:01 > 0:13:04it's just about getting the team back into competitions
0:13:04 > 0:13:07and hopefully getting the club back on the circuit, you know.
0:13:07 > 0:13:09WHISTLE
0:13:11 > 0:13:15But it's not long before Tenby's hopes are dashed.
0:13:15 > 0:13:19Local boy, Miles Johnson, is injured.
0:13:19 > 0:13:22I got stung by a fish.
0:13:22 > 0:13:24- Oh no, does it hurt?- Yeah.
0:13:24 > 0:13:26What are you going to do now?
0:13:26 > 0:13:28Go up to the Life Guard hut
0:13:28 > 0:13:31and I'm going to get it cleaned up in hot water.
0:13:32 > 0:13:35Let's have a look.
0:13:38 > 0:13:39On your big toe, isn't it?
0:13:39 > 0:13:42Yeah.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43How painful is it?
0:13:43 > 0:13:48- Really painful. - Like seven?- Yeah.- Really?
0:13:48 > 0:13:51You got a good one then, didn't you?
0:13:51 > 0:13:54They're like a flat fish, and what they do is burrow into the sand
0:13:54 > 0:13:57and they've got three spines on their back fin.
0:13:57 > 0:14:00What they do is wait for fish to come round,
0:14:00 > 0:14:03and it usually tries to spike them and then it eats them then.
0:14:03 > 0:14:07Sometimes you can stand on them, usually on low tide in the shallows.
0:14:07 > 0:14:09It does hurt.
0:14:09 > 0:14:12I stood on one about a month ago and I definitely knew about it.
0:14:12 > 0:14:13- I stood on one three weeks ago. - Yeah.
0:14:13 > 0:14:18To make it better, right, this is going to have to be really, really hot water.
0:14:18 > 0:14:20- Yeah.- But not too hot so it hurts you, OK?
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Dip your toe in where it stings.
0:14:23 > 0:14:27- It's going to be hot, OK? Because you've got poison in your foot.- Yeah.
0:14:29 > 0:14:32- Does it still feel a bit hot?- Yeah.
0:14:32 > 0:14:36- Who are you competing for today, then?- Tenby.
0:14:36 > 0:14:41- Ah, local boy. You doing the beach races later?- Yeah.
0:14:41 > 0:14:45You said the pain was about seven earlier, how much is it now?
0:14:45 > 0:14:46About two.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49- You sure you're happy now, yeah? - Yeah, happy now.
0:14:49 > 0:14:54Good luck boys, you have to win now. First and second, please.
0:14:54 > 0:14:58- Do it for Tenby!- Thank you. - No problem.- See you later.- Ta-ra.
0:15:02 > 0:15:06The carnival floats are arriving in town.
0:15:14 > 0:15:15At the Fire Station,
0:15:15 > 0:15:19Dickie Lewis is busy preparing the carnival queen float for the possession.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23We're no flower arrangers, but we'll have a good go at it.
0:15:27 > 0:15:31It's all hands to the pump. Carnival chairman, Sean Brace, is also on flower duty.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36But with Dickie contemplating retirement,
0:15:36 > 0:15:39this could be the last carnival the pair organise together.
0:15:39 > 0:15:42- This is my 38th. - I put four flowers into a pot.
0:15:42 > 0:15:46I've got two more, and I'm finished. But I'll still come out.
0:15:46 > 0:15:48We'll certainly miss him.
0:15:48 > 0:15:51As long as we can keep him, really. He did say a couple of years
0:15:51 > 0:15:55but hopefully, he'll do a little bit more. We'll certainly miss him.
0:16:01 > 0:16:06Last year, this event raised £5,000 for the fire fighters' charity.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10It's time for Dickie and Sean to hit the streets with money buckets.
0:16:10 > 0:16:14Thank you very much. Thank you very much, cheers.
0:16:14 > 0:16:17I appreciate that, thank you.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19I've got my own business, I'm a builder in Tenby,
0:16:19 > 0:16:22then you've the other side, of being a retained fireman.
0:16:22 > 0:16:25It is hard, but it's well worth it at the end of the day.
0:16:25 > 0:16:27The things that we do, especially for charity,
0:16:27 > 0:16:31and then going out to some shouts, it is well worth it.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33Well, well worth it.
0:16:33 > 0:16:35Oh, good day, guv. Thanks.
0:16:35 > 0:16:38My dad's best mate is Dickie.
0:16:38 > 0:16:40He said, "Do you fancy coming to join?", and I was in.
0:16:40 > 0:16:44A couple of months of training, I haven't looked back since. I really enjoyed it.
0:16:45 > 0:16:49- Thank you, Phil.- Cheers, Dick. - Cheers, Phil. Thanks very much.
0:16:49 > 0:16:51He's like another dad to me, really.
0:16:51 > 0:16:54We get on, I shouldn't say, but a house on fire, you know?
0:16:54 > 0:16:59There we are! Oh, a pound coin! Thank you very much.
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Parking in Tenby is a county council responsibility.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09And Barbara is on the front line.
0:17:09 > 0:17:14The trouble is, they all think that we're on commission and we just...
0:17:14 > 0:17:20People have got, just a one-track mind on CEOs,
0:17:20 > 0:17:23or traffic wardens, unfortunately.
0:17:24 > 0:17:28Today, a tradesman is trying to park and do some urgent work.
0:17:28 > 0:17:31- What's the emergency?- A problem with the fire alarm in there.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34Yeah, that's what I'm saying, you can park in Five Arches...
0:17:34 > 0:17:37I need the van in there. I can't carry the stuff.
0:17:37 > 0:17:39But you'll not get through. I'll check...
0:17:39 > 0:17:42I got parking on here. They're As useless as everyone else.
0:17:42 > 0:17:44- Sorry?- They haven't got the council on here.
0:17:44 > 0:17:47They seem to be useless, they're not able to help.
0:17:47 > 0:17:50What do you mean, useless? I don't.. No, no, no, they're not useless.
0:17:50 > 0:17:54- I just want to get out for an hour. - I appreciate that, but as I said,
0:17:54 > 0:17:57council, useless, not a nice level to come in at.
0:17:57 > 0:18:01- But they are!- No, no, no! I am here now, trying to help you.
0:18:01 > 0:18:06You don't work for them, do you? Sorry, I forgot.
0:18:06 > 0:18:11The only thing I can think of is if you come out and if you go down to the bottom of there.
0:18:11 > 0:18:15- Yeah.- OK? Is that a solution?
0:18:15 > 0:18:19- Anything, as long as I can get in there, I'm happy. - So, we're not so useless now, no?
0:18:19 > 0:18:21I didn't say YOU were. THEY are.
0:18:21 > 0:18:25No, I am the council, you can't be saying that to me.
0:18:25 > 0:18:29As I said, opening that the council is useless is not the best of lines.
0:18:29 > 0:18:32But, as I said, I would say, when we put tickets on cars,
0:18:32 > 0:18:36I'd say 99% of people are going to get frustrated.
0:18:36 > 0:18:41Parking issues are emotive, there's no two ways about it.
0:18:41 > 0:18:45We just deal with it as we can. I expect abuse.
0:18:45 > 0:18:47I don't like it, but part of me expects it.
0:18:47 > 0:18:51But I'd rather deal with it and see if we can get over it, which is what that was.
0:18:52 > 0:18:56Nice to be important, more important to be nice.
0:18:59 > 0:19:06From apartments to B&Bs and traditional hotels, Tenby caters for all tastes.
0:19:06 > 0:19:11Malcolm is welcoming his holiday guests to lunch.
0:19:11 > 0:19:13- No problems?- No.- Good, good.
0:19:13 > 0:19:15Everything all right, ladies?
0:19:15 > 0:19:20In order to go from a three to a four-star rating,
0:19:20 > 0:19:22the hotel needs a top chef.
0:19:23 > 0:19:25Everything all right, chef?
0:19:25 > 0:19:28We've run out of Yorkshire puddings halfway through service.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30I'm going to make some now.
0:19:30 > 0:19:32Sack the chef! He's run out of Yorkshires.
0:19:32 > 0:19:34Have you ever heard the last of it?
0:19:34 > 0:19:38I've run out of Yorkshire puddings cos everybody's had beef.
0:19:38 > 0:19:42I'm frantically trying to cook some more in the oven for the privates,
0:19:42 > 0:19:46and I've got to cut these ones in half, I have.
0:19:46 > 0:19:4923-year-old head chef, Phil Sellars,
0:19:49 > 0:19:52joined the hotel just over a year ago.
0:19:52 > 0:19:53'We had the Cliff Norton.'
0:19:53 > 0:19:56My mum and dad managed it for 21 years.
0:19:56 > 0:20:01So I was brought up in hotels from that high, which is brilliant.
0:20:01 > 0:20:06Mum, my dad and my brother said I was mad coming into this at my age,
0:20:06 > 0:20:09but I'd rather be in it at this age now, a young age,
0:20:09 > 0:20:13than being 20 or 30, I mean, 30 or 40,
0:20:13 > 0:20:16cos I can then bring more energy into the job
0:20:16 > 0:20:19than when you get a bit older, you can't really put much energy in.
0:20:19 > 0:20:23To be fair to him, what he's done for us
0:20:23 > 0:20:27with his cooking abilities and his presentation,
0:20:27 > 0:20:28it's turned us round.
0:20:28 > 0:20:30He's young, he's still got a lot to learn,
0:20:30 > 0:20:34but he's just passed his, um...what was it you've passed, Philip?
0:20:34 > 0:20:36My level 3 NVQ.
0:20:36 > 0:20:38His level 3, which I keep forgetting.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41But, no, he's fine. He's excellent. He's a good lad.
0:20:41 > 0:20:44Phil, I have got more mains.
0:20:44 > 0:20:46No Yorkshires!
0:20:50 > 0:20:53The Surf Lifesaving Championships are continuing on the South Beach.
0:20:55 > 0:20:59And 12-year-old Miles has recovered from his weaver fish injuries.
0:21:01 > 0:21:04Watching on and hoping he doesn't have to treat him again
0:21:04 > 0:21:05is lifeguard Stefan John.
0:21:05 > 0:21:08He's racing again now,
0:21:08 > 0:21:12so hopefully he won't stand on any more
0:21:12 > 0:21:14and hopefully he'll get a win.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16WHISTLE BLOWS
0:21:19 > 0:21:21Come on, Miles!
0:21:23 > 0:21:27Good boy. Keep it going Miles, keep it going. Go, go!
0:21:31 > 0:21:34I came more for the surfing scene rather than the lifesaving scene,
0:21:34 > 0:21:36but looking back, I would've loved
0:21:36 > 0:21:39to have been part of this, definitely.
0:21:39 > 0:21:43I think it's a great way to get involved in lifeguarding.
0:21:47 > 0:21:49Even after his weaver fish sting,
0:21:49 > 0:21:53Miles has managed to come first for Team Tenby.
0:21:54 > 0:21:57First win of the day the day. So we're very pleased with that.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59Even surprised me, so...
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Even with his weaver fish injury.
0:22:08 > 0:22:11In the town centre the fireman's carnival procession
0:22:11 > 0:22:14is a bit behind schedule.
0:22:14 > 0:22:16We're late, as usual.
0:22:16 > 0:22:19But I love it. I love been late. I've been late all my life.
0:22:19 > 0:22:24My mother always said I'd be late for my own funeral. Probably will.
0:22:24 > 0:22:28It's nice, isn't it? With the princesses and all.
0:22:28 > 0:22:30Nostalgic. I'll cry in a minute.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32I'll shed a tear.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39In true fireman spirit,
0:22:39 > 0:22:42this carnival traditionally involves a massive water fight
0:22:42 > 0:22:45and it's Sean's job to stop the soaking happening
0:22:45 > 0:22:47before they get to the town square.
0:22:49 > 0:22:52Of course, the important thing now is to try and keep water off,
0:22:52 > 0:22:54especially this float.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56You can't stop water at a carnival,
0:22:56 > 0:22:59but we don't want to wet the carnival queen.
0:22:59 > 0:23:01So they're the most important,
0:23:01 > 0:23:02and the walking passers.
0:23:07 > 0:23:10No water, please. No water, yeah? No water.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13It's going all right so far.
0:23:13 > 0:23:15No injuries.
0:23:21 > 0:23:24Ah, it's brilliant. Yeah, yeah.
0:23:24 > 0:23:25It is, it's lovely.
0:23:25 > 0:23:27Look at the crowds, look.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30It's brilliant. absolutely brilliant,
0:23:30 > 0:23:31and it's a nice day, too.
0:23:31 > 0:23:34So, yeah, it's good.
0:23:34 > 0:23:36Makes me feel proud.
0:23:36 > 0:23:38It does.
0:23:44 > 0:23:48Barbara has spotted another problem,
0:23:48 > 0:23:50and it's made her see double.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54They've just put, um... double yellow lines down here.
0:23:54 > 0:23:5710 years this has been without double yellow lines.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01They're brand new, so you can't say you didn't see them.
0:24:01 > 0:24:03It's a bit like, I've got to stand here now...
0:24:03 > 0:24:06- I'm going to move it now, honest. - Go on then. Come on then.
0:24:06 > 0:24:08- Move it?- Yeah.- Yeah?
0:24:08 > 0:24:13See? He'll come running out now. You've got two minutes. Go on.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15SHE LAUGHS
0:24:26 > 0:24:27Another day in paradise.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32What's not to love about working here?
0:24:32 > 0:24:34It's just so nice.
0:24:34 > 0:24:37In the summer, you've got so many different people.
0:24:37 > 0:24:41You've got the weather and everything. In the winter, you've got the locals,
0:24:41 > 0:24:45but it's every day you walk out and you've got lovely views.
0:24:45 > 0:24:49It's just, it's just a lovely place to work. Really nice.
0:24:54 > 0:24:59Interior designer Linda Hunt has been hard at work in the bedroom
0:24:59 > 0:25:01and is ready to reveal all to Malcolm.
0:25:03 > 0:25:06How are we doing, Linda?
0:25:06 > 0:25:08- Just about done.- Super, darling.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10- Yeah?- Super.
0:25:10 > 0:25:12I just love that.
0:25:12 > 0:25:14- Do you?- Luggage. Yes. That's super.
0:25:14 > 0:25:16And another little teddy.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18SHE LAUGHS
0:25:18 > 0:25:19Lovely.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22- Well done, Linda. Thank you. - Good. Glad you like it.
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Super, absolutely super.
0:25:24 > 0:25:28To see this hotel get to a four-star...
0:25:28 > 0:25:30I'd just be delighted then.
0:25:30 > 0:25:32Really delighted.
0:25:34 > 0:25:37Have a lovely summer and hopefully we'll see you again one day.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Pleasant journey, now. Bye-bye, all.
0:25:52 > 0:25:55Finally, it's the moment everyone has come to Tudor Square for.
0:25:58 > 0:26:00The turning on of the firemen's hose.
0:26:00 > 0:26:03I'll bring the water floats in.
0:26:03 > 0:26:05No. All right.
0:26:06 > 0:26:10It's a Tenby tradition that the crowds look forward to.
0:26:14 > 0:26:18The parade has officially made its way to the wet zone.
0:26:20 > 0:26:22Argh!
0:26:24 > 0:26:27SCREAMS AND SHOUTS
0:26:30 > 0:26:33OK, can you make your way to the...
0:26:36 > 0:26:39Do you want to make your way to the harbour?
0:26:39 > 0:26:41Everybody's enjoying themselves, aren't they?
0:26:41 > 0:26:44I didn't get soaked, but just missed it.
0:26:44 > 0:26:47Can you ever see yourself leaving Tenby?
0:26:47 > 0:26:49Never, ever. No.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52I might go to the Narberth Crematorium, but I won't leave Tenby.
0:26:58 > 0:27:02If they had a crematorium in Tenby, I'd stay here.
0:27:03 > 0:27:08This year's carnival raised over £5,000 for charity.
0:27:10 > 0:27:13On the South Beach, it's prize presentation time.
0:27:13 > 0:27:17Boys' under-12s - first place, Miles Johnson, Tenby.
0:27:17 > 0:27:19CHEERS
0:27:19 > 0:27:25Thanks to Miles, it's a proud moment for both Team Tenby and his dad.
0:27:25 > 0:27:28I didn't know he was a good runner. I never knew that till today.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30- He just... Innit?- Yeah.
0:27:30 > 0:27:32Kept it hid. Hidden talents.
0:27:32 > 0:27:36- I beat the Welsh champion... - With your bad foot.
0:27:36 > 0:27:37Yeah, and I had a bad foot.
0:27:37 > 0:27:41I beat the Welsh champion and they were all bigger than me
0:27:41 > 0:27:44and taller than me. I was just amazed.
0:27:44 > 0:27:46And he couldn't have done it
0:27:46 > 0:27:48without a helping hand from the lifeguards.
0:27:48 > 0:27:52This is a beach safety announcement. The lifeguards are now off duty.
0:27:52 > 0:27:55So if you decide to stay in the water, you do so at your own risk
0:27:55 > 0:27:58and we shall see you tomorrow from 10am.
0:27:58 > 0:28:03# When the night
0:28:03 > 0:28:07# Fills my soul
0:28:07 > 0:28:12# I'll be home.
0:28:12 > 0:28:16# I'll be home.
0:28:16 > 0:28:18Whoo!
0:28:19 > 0:28:22Next time on Tenby 24/7 -
0:28:22 > 0:28:25Malcolm hosts a local wedding...
0:28:25 > 0:28:28Everything's set up and no cake.
0:28:28 > 0:28:32..the police are on duty for the summer spectacular...
0:28:32 > 0:28:33You! Come here!
0:28:33 > 0:28:35Bring the car, bring the car.
0:28:35 > 0:28:39..and beach cleaner Ron bites off more than he can chew.
0:28:39 > 0:28:42Somebody's left a spare set. I found them on the beach.
0:28:42 > 0:28:46If he remembers he's lost them, you know who's got them.
