This time on Tenby 24/7,

0:00:010:00:04

beach cleaner Ron bites off more than he can chew.

0:00:040:00:08

Somebody's lost their spare set. I found them on the beach.

0:00:080:00:11

If anybody's lost them, you know who's got them.

0:00:110:00:14

It's the summer spectacular and PC Nigel Lewis is on patrol.

0:00:140:00:18

Earlier, some boys were up here and were chucking cans down, so, er...

0:00:180:00:23

We're keeping an eye on things here now.

0:00:230:00:25

And hotelier Malcolm has a problem with his wedding reception.

0:00:250:00:30

Everything's set up, and no cake.

0:00:300:00:33

This is seven days in the life of one of Wales's holiday hotspots.

0:00:350:00:39

Seven days with the people who work here to make the holidays a treat.

0:00:400:00:46

This is Tenby 24/7.

0:00:460:00:49

Hidden in south-west Wales is the seaside town of Tenby,

0:00:520:00:58

a holiday resort with not just one,

0:00:580:01:01

but three sandy beaches, and each boasting a blue flag

0:01:010:01:04

for quality.

0:01:040:01:07

Keeping them in tip-top condition is essential.

0:01:070:01:11

This because somebody had a party last night.

0:01:110:01:14

They've bagged all their stuff up but they didn't take it with them.

0:01:140:01:18

So, they leave it on top of the bin and then the seagulls come along

0:01:180:01:22

and empty every bag.

0:01:220:01:23

Then I have to come along and pick it all up.

0:01:230:01:26

For 18 years, Ron Jones has been keeping Tenby's beaches rubbish-free.

0:01:270:01:32

And seagulls don't make his job any easier.

0:01:320:01:34

I like seagulls? No. Because of this.

0:01:340:01:38

Because they turn into scavengers.

0:01:380:01:40

Whereas they used to, I would imagine,

0:01:400:01:44

fish in the sea,

0:01:440:01:46

do a little dance, get worms.

0:01:460:01:48

But they don't dance for this - they just rip it open.

0:01:480:01:52

It just annoys me.

0:01:520:01:54

I suppose everything's got to live.

0:01:540:01:56

Well, the thing is, when it's all done and dusted, people are lovely and clean,

0:01:560:02:01

and when they come down,

0:02:010:02:02

to have a look down, the beach will be nice and clean, nothing for them to moan about,

0:02:020:02:08

and I'll get paid.

0:02:080:02:10

Hopefully.

0:02:100:02:11

My teacher said, "Jones,

0:02:140:02:16

"you'll be nothing but a binman," and what am I? I'm a binman.

0:02:160:02:20

-Are you a happy binman?

-Yeah.

0:02:200:02:22

Ron must have the beaches picture-postcard perfect.

0:02:230:02:27

# And the sun was shining in his hair...

0:02:270:02:29

Before the bucket-and-spade brigade of holidaymakers hit the sand.

0:02:290:02:33

Tenby and tourism hit the big time

0:02:380:02:40

during the Georgian and Victorian eras.

0:02:400:02:43

That influence can be seen in many of the places to stay in the town.

0:02:430:02:48

At the three-star Giltar Hotel, owners Malcolm Brace

0:02:520:02:55

and his business partner, Pat Jenkins,

0:02:550:02:58

are preparing for a local celebration.

0:02:580:03:01

Today, they are hosting a wedding reception for a Tenby couple.

0:03:050:03:10

Everything OK?

0:03:100:03:12

Malcolm and Pat are aiming to get an extra star for their hotel.

0:03:120:03:16

And an important part of their plan is holding wedding functions.

0:03:160:03:21

Slowly beginning to come together.

0:03:210:03:24

They've started doing the chair covers.

0:03:240:03:26

It'll finish off with the bows at the end, so...

0:03:260:03:29

And then you'll see the transformation.

0:03:290:03:31

To me, it has to be laid to perfection. It has to look...

0:03:330:03:37

So when you come through the door, when it's all finished,

0:03:370:03:40

the bride, in particular, will say, "Wow!"

0:03:400:03:44

Ah, very good.

0:03:440:03:46

Oh, dear - the cake hasn't arrived yet.

0:03:460:03:48

Well, they were supposed to be here at 11:30am.

0:03:480:03:51

Everything's set up and no cake.

0:03:540:03:57

So, we begin to get the jitters a little bit now.

0:03:570:04:01

Hopefully now they will be here within the next quarter of an hour.

0:04:010:04:07

If they're going to be any later, they'll be having a phone call.

0:04:070:04:10

All right? So, we'll keep our fingers crossed.

0:04:100:04:14

This is the busiest week of the year in Tenby.

0:04:170:04:22

Nearly 50,000 visitors will flock to this small seaside town.

0:04:220:04:26

One of the holiday highlights for both visitors and locals

0:04:280:04:31

is the Summer Spectacular in the town's harbour.

0:04:310:04:34

This is all my list of jobs to do and make sure I've got the right stall to the right people.

0:04:360:04:42

So when they come down they've got what they want. So, I'll just check.

0:04:420:04:45

-Morning, mate.

-Local restaurateur Dave Douglas Law

0:04:450:04:49

is the Tenby Round Table chairman and is in charge of this year's event.

0:04:490:04:54

We try to keep it as charity-based as possible.

0:04:540:04:57

This year it's been up to myself to rally round,

0:04:570:05:00

making sure everybody comes down with the right stall

0:05:000:05:03

and inviting the charity stalls down, sorting out all the entertainment, all the bands.

0:05:030:05:07

But there is one thing Dave can't organise - the Welsh weather,

0:05:070:05:12

which could make his grand finale a washout.

0:05:120:05:15

Just hoping that the rain stays away.

0:05:150:05:18

The biggest choice today will be, if it rains this evening,

0:05:180:05:21

which it's due to, whether the fireworks will go ahead or not.

0:05:210:05:25

Today, the locals are already asking for fireworks.

0:05:250:05:28

A lot of people have come down to Tenby, they've booked their holidays around these events.

0:05:280:05:35

It's the main advertising slogan. The posters have the firework display.

0:05:350:05:38

It says huge, spectacular fireworks.

0:05:380:05:41

And the worst thing is, if they set them up and it rains,

0:05:410:05:44

and we have to pull it, we still have to pay for it.

0:05:440:05:47

So, a big chunk of the money that we raise today just goes on that.

0:05:470:05:50

Each day, around 50 bags of rubbish are removed from Tenby's beaches,

0:05:550:06:00

and cleaner Ron hand-picks it all.

0:06:010:06:05

It's not nice when you're sitting on the beach and you get a big, smelly fish next to you.

0:06:050:06:10

No, not a very nice thing!

0:06:100:06:13

I hate barbecues because they're dangerous.

0:06:130:06:16

They've got a serrated edge - really sharp - like a razor blade.

0:06:160:06:21

If you catch yourself on that, that's a stitching job, so...

0:06:210:06:24

I always try and...

0:06:240:06:26

fold them up.

0:06:260:06:29

In my opinion, they should never be allowed.

0:06:290:06:32

So I'll put it and I'll just fold it over.

0:06:320:06:35

So there's no sharp edges.

0:06:350:06:37

Here, you can get tons of stuff come in.

0:06:400:06:43

You can be knee-deep in rubbish sometimes. Bits of timber and odds and ends,

0:06:430:06:48

false teeth, whatever.

0:06:480:06:49

Like...

0:06:490:06:50

Like...somebody's left their spare set. I found them on the beach.

0:06:520:06:56

If anybody's lost them, you know who's got them.

0:06:560:06:59

It's nice to see the beach like this - empty.

0:06:590:07:01

And clean.

0:07:010:07:03

Emphasise the word, clean.

0:07:030:07:05

It's nice. We don't want to come down and see rubbish everywhere.

0:07:050:07:09

Thanks to Ron, the three Blue Flag beaches are now clean and safe for the public to enjoy.

0:07:110:07:17

Nearly 5,000 people are expected to descend on Tenby

0:07:190:07:24

for today's Summer Spectacular.

0:07:240:07:26

Police Constables Nigel Lewis and Edith Thomas are on patrol.

0:07:260:07:33

Can I just ask if you know where you're going?

0:07:340:07:36

-Pardon?

-The Grey Rock Hotel.

0:07:360:07:38

The Grey Rock Hotel is there but it's pedestrianised.

0:07:380:07:41

The large crowd making their way down to the harbour,

0:07:410:07:45

PC Lewis wants to make sure today's Summer Spectacular is safe for everyone to enjoy.

0:07:450:07:50

I'm monitoring the only small element, and it's a tiny element,

0:07:500:07:56

of persons who may spoil things later.

0:07:560:08:00

And that is the handful of boys that sit on the balcony up there,

0:08:000:08:06

who, last week, unfortunately, decided to throw some things down into the crowd,

0:08:060:08:12

to the annoyance of the crowd. We'll watch that this week,

0:08:120:08:16

and if they put a step out of place, then we will give them direction to leave.

0:08:160:08:20

But it's a free country. There's no requirement for us to move them now,

0:08:200:08:24

because they haven't done anything. That would be heavy-handed policing, really.

0:08:240:08:28

-Having a last-minute check on some of his sideshow attractions is Round Table chairman Dave.

-Wahay!

0:08:280:08:35

HE LAUGHS

0:08:350:08:36

At the moment, just looking round,

0:08:360:08:39

it's already a lot busier than, you know...

0:08:390:08:42

It's not even started, really, till the Samba Doc come down. You can hear them now.

0:08:420:08:46

It's definitely them. So they'll bring a load in now.

0:08:460:08:49

And this is what I wanted - perfect!

0:08:490:08:52

LOUD DRUMMING

0:08:520:08:54

Ear plugs!

0:08:570:08:59

Only £1

0:09:020:09:04

Only £1. All for charity.

0:09:040:09:07

There you go!

0:09:070:09:08

Ladies and gentlemen,

0:09:080:09:09

welcome to Tenby Harbour on this beautiful afternoon

0:09:090:09:12

The Tenby Round Table Summer Spectacular 2011!

0:09:120:09:18

The wedding preparations are continuing.

0:09:210:09:24

The bridal suite is ready.

0:09:260:09:28

But Malcolm is still on the hunt for the missing wedding cake.

0:09:290:09:33

Good afternoon, it's Malcolm here at the Giltar Hotel in Tenby.

0:09:330:09:36

I'm just checking up on the wedding cake for this afternoon.

0:09:360:09:41

You did ring me yesterday to say you'd be here at 11:30am.

0:09:410:09:44

I'm now ringing, it's 2 o'clock and we haven't seen the cake.

0:09:440:09:48

-Are you all right there for a minute, Tom?

-Yeah.

-I'm going to get on, then.

0:09:480:09:52

The pressure is also on in the hotel kitchen.

0:09:520:09:56

Cooking up the wedding banquet is not going to be straightforward

0:09:570:10:00

for 23-year-old head chef, Phil Sellars.

0:10:000:10:02

Thomas, come round. I want to talk to you guys. Right!

0:10:020:10:06

Today, as you know, we haven't got Paul or Griff.

0:10:060:10:09

So, what I want on service today,

0:10:090:10:11

if, Tommy, you work with me up the front on main courses

0:10:110:10:14

doing what Paul would do.

0:10:140:10:16

So if you put the roast potatoes, the gravy, roast parsnips on,

0:10:160:10:20

and send, and I'll be at the back here carving.

0:10:200:10:23

Christian, I need you on the veg.

0:10:230:10:25

And Masood, if you do the new potatoes.

0:10:250:10:28

And then you can work with Christian on the back.

0:10:280:10:31

So we need to all work together today because we're two men down.

0:10:310:10:33

So just take our time. Don't let the waiters rush us.

0:10:330:10:37

If they have to wait a few minutes, they have to wait.

0:10:370:10:40

I'm the youngest in the kitchen.

0:10:400:10:42

But the brilliant thing is they've all accepted me.

0:10:420:10:46

I've done a lot of change.

0:10:460:10:47

They all know what they're doing and they know when they come in,

0:10:470:10:50

they've got to do this, this and this.

0:10:500:10:52

If we're, like today, two men down, they'll all pull together.

0:10:520:10:56

So we never have no problems - touch wood!

0:10:560:11:00

Can you manage? Do you want the door open?

0:11:000:11:03

One problem is solved though, Malcolm's missing wedding cake.

0:11:030:11:07

OK, it looks beautiful.

0:11:070:11:09

For over a quarter of a century, a horse and carriage

0:11:200:11:23

has been showing tourists around the historic sights of Tenby town.

0:11:230:11:28

Walk on!

0:11:280:11:31

Steve Phillips has just bought this established business

0:11:310:11:34

and it's his first summer entertaining holidaymakers.

0:11:340:11:38

Tenby dates back to the sort of 1100-1200s.

0:11:390:11:44

It was a very rich trading port then.

0:11:440:11:47

There were a lot of goods traded in here from all over Europe.

0:11:470:11:52

Do you know what the Welsh for Tenby is?

0:11:520:11:55

-No.

-Dinbych-y-Pysgod.

-Oh, wow!

0:11:550:11:57

-And that translates as the little fortress of the fishes.

-Wow!

0:11:570:12:00

I thought the Indian language was hard but this is more difficult.

0:12:000:12:05

Whoa! Stand still, Ed.

0:12:050:12:09

We stop here because it's the best view on the route.

0:12:090:12:11

Yeah, this is the south beach below us, which is Tenby's biggest beach.

0:12:110:12:16

Over here we've got Caldey Island.

0:12:160:12:17

The Cistercian monks have a monastery on there.

0:12:170:12:20

So, how do you get there?

0:12:200:12:22

You get a boat. Two boats go out.

0:12:220:12:24

The boats go from Tenby Harbour every 20 minutes back and forth.

0:12:240:12:29

So, where does everyone come from today?

0:12:290:12:31

My dad's from Nairobi in Kenya.

0:12:310:12:33

And he's on holiday here for about four weeks.

0:12:330:12:36

Walk on!

0:12:380:12:40

Every trip is different.

0:12:450:12:47

You get families with kids and you'll angle it more towards the fun things for the children,

0:12:470:12:51

but then you'll get maybe a group of adults

0:12:510:12:53

and they'll be wanting to know more about the history

0:12:530:12:55

and they'll be asking me questions

0:12:550:12:57

rather than just listening to me, which is quite nice actually.

0:12:570:13:00

It gets more like a conversation then,

0:13:000:13:02

so it's more of a two way thing.

0:13:020:13:04

You're a good boy, aren't you?

0:13:040:13:05

Don't go to close to Mr Ed with that cake now, he'll have it.

0:13:070:13:10

You'd better eat it quick.

0:13:100:13:11

The heavens have opened.

0:13:150:13:16

But it's not dampening the spirits of the Irish dancers at the Summer Spectacular.

0:13:160:13:21

It's supposed to be 6 o'clock it's coming in

0:13:240:13:26

but it's arrived early. So, if anything, that might benefit us.

0:13:260:13:29

If it's coming a couple of hours early, hopefully

0:13:290:13:32

it will finish when it's due to come in, if you know what I mean.

0:13:320:13:35

And everything can go ahead with the fireworks, as planned.

0:13:350:13:38

Um, it's just a case of fingers crossed and see what happens.

0:13:380:13:42

So, the last thing I want to do is pull the fireworks

0:13:420:13:47

but I'm hoping it does blow over for us.

0:13:470:13:51

With rock bands lined up for the evening event,

0:13:560:13:59

local youngsters flock to the town.

0:13:590:14:01

PC Nigel Lewis is patrolling Tenby Railway Station

0:14:030:14:06

and he's spotted a potential problem.

0:14:060:14:09

HE SHOUTS INCOHERENTLY

0:14:090:14:12

You, come here!

0:14:140:14:16

Bring the car, bring the car!

0:14:180:14:20

You're getting on that train, you're getting out of here.

0:14:240:14:26

You've just blown your chances in this town, OK.

0:14:260:14:27

-I haven't done nothing though.

-We saw you perform.

0:14:270:14:30

You're having a direction to leave, you're out of town, OK.

0:14:300:14:32

-For messing about?

-Yes, for messing about.

0:14:320:14:34

Because that's the way you'll be for the rest of the evening

0:14:340:14:36

-and you'll bring problems to us. I don't want it.

-Hang on a second!

0:14:360:14:39

How old are you? How old are you?

0:14:390:14:41

-16.

-Right, who let...?

0:14:410:14:43

Slow down, have you been drinking before coming here?

0:14:430:14:45

I don't drink.

0:14:450:14:47

You should accompany us, I think.

0:14:470:14:48

You need to accompany us down to the police van,

0:14:480:14:51

back to the police station. And let's get parents out.

0:14:510:14:54

News has arrived that the newly married bride and groom

0:14:580:15:02

are on their way to the reception.

0:15:020:15:05

You've changed then.

0:15:050:15:07

Yes, I've changed now.

0:15:070:15:09

Transformation!

0:15:090:15:11

-Why's that?

-Why's that?

0:15:110:15:13

Well, I just like to think

0:15:130:15:15

you've got to dress for the part when you're doing a wedding.

0:15:150:15:19

Local Tenby school teacher Samantha and her new husband, Darren,

0:15:190:15:23

have been planning their special day with Malcolm

0:15:230:15:26

for the last few months.

0:15:260:15:28

Congratulations!

0:15:280:15:29

-Everything go well?

-Yeah, fantastic.

-Well done! Excellent.

0:15:290:15:33

Come on then.

0:15:330:15:35

But will Malcolm's wedding room have the wow factor he is after?

0:15:350:15:41

It's absolutely stunning.

0:15:420:15:44

-What do you think?

-It's lovely, absolutely stunning.

0:15:470:15:50

Do you want to have a look at your cake then?

0:15:500:15:53

Jasmine did really well, didn't she?

0:15:530:15:56

The wedding is running to schedule and head chef Phil

0:15:560:16:00

is now under pressure to get food to the dining room on time.

0:16:000:16:03

Watch these caulis under the grill, guys.

0:16:030:16:06

Just getting ready now for the main courses.

0:16:100:16:12

There will be hot carving meat to order.

0:16:120:16:15

As they come in, they ask for one chicken,

0:16:150:16:18

I carve it, and one beef as well.

0:16:180:16:20

So, I'll be carving as we're going.

0:16:200:16:24

Could I have veg for top table, please?

0:16:240:16:26

I'm going to have to shoot back round now.

0:16:260:16:29

Ladies and gentlemen, can I ask you all

0:16:310:16:33

to stand and welcome the new bride and groom?

0:16:330:16:36

Samantha and Darren.

0:16:360:16:38

APPLAUSE

0:16:380:16:40

On the south beach, Ron has been called to a rather unusual job.

0:16:480:16:53

-Another one there.

-There's one there.

0:16:570:16:59

I've left you a big one down there.

0:16:590:17:04

Mervyn Dennis, the beach warden,

0:17:040:17:06

has discovered some old World War II ironwork and he wants it removed.

0:17:060:17:11

So, here we are - a steel spike sticking out of the beach.

0:17:110:17:15

You can imagine a little kid jumping in the sea

0:17:150:17:18

and stubbing their toe or, worse still, diving into it.

0:17:180:17:22

It's a case of either breaking them off

0:17:220:17:26

or bending them over and dropping them back into the beach.

0:17:260:17:31

-They're old railway tracks.

-Yeah, they're old railway tracks.

0:17:330:17:36

Another thing we've got to be careful of is we don't dig too big a hole

0:17:360:17:41

because the sand will be very soft and people will sink into the sand.

0:17:410:17:45

They think it's quick sand but it's not - it's where we've been digging.

0:17:450:17:48

The joys of being a beach warden.

0:17:480:17:50

You can build sandcastles as big as you like!

0:17:500:17:53

You can see why we do it - they can be very nasty.

0:17:580:18:02

Although there was only about that much sticking out of the sand,

0:18:020:18:05

you can see how deep they go into the sand.

0:18:050:18:07

One more that won't show its ugly head again.

0:18:090:18:11

Ready? One, two, three.

0:18:160:18:19

Pembrokeshire born Steve Phillips

0:18:240:18:26

only has the summer months to offer horse rides to holidaymakers.

0:18:260:18:30

The church now - St Mary's -

0:18:320:18:34

is the largest Medieval parish church in Wales.

0:18:340:18:38

It's open to the public - lovely inside. They keep it immaculate.

0:18:380:18:42

Hidden in the centre of town are the old Victorian stables

0:18:420:18:46

where Steve keeps and cares for his Shire horses, Major Tom and Mr Ed.

0:18:460:18:52

Cleaning his feet out,

0:18:520:18:53

obviously we try and minimise

0:18:530:18:56

the amount of muck we take out on to the street.

0:18:560:19:00

It also gives us the chance

0:19:000:19:02

to check the horse's feet and how his shoes are doing.

0:19:020:19:05

Obviously the cobbles take it out of the shoes.

0:19:050:19:09

As with any business that relies on the tourist trade,

0:19:090:19:13

the summer is absolutely key for us.

0:19:130:19:17

The sort of second half of July and all of August

0:19:170:19:21

is when the visitor numbers rocket in Tenby

0:19:210:19:24

and really you sort of stand or fall by how you do in that time.

0:19:240:19:29

It's so established that I get people coming up to me and saying,

0:19:290:19:33

"Oh, I've been coming to Tenby since 1973

0:19:330:19:36

"and it's always been here."

0:19:360:19:38

Well, it hasn't but it's been that well established,

0:19:380:19:41

that it's just part of Tenby.

0:19:410:19:43

The number of people that have come up to me saying,

0:19:430:19:45

"I'm so glad you've taken it on,

0:19:450:19:47

"it wouldn't be Tenby without the horse."

0:19:470:19:49

Time for Mr Ed to hit the streets for the evening shift.

0:19:520:19:56

It's also evening service

0:20:010:20:02

for Summer Spectacular organiser Dave Douglas Law.

0:20:020:20:06

Dinner, please.

0:20:060:20:07

Wood pigeon.

0:20:070:20:10

He's having to juggle the event in the harbour

0:20:100:20:12

whilst keeping his restaurant open for holidaymakers.

0:20:120:20:16

I think everybody in the town

0:20:160:20:18

looks forward to these six weeks because that's what, you know...

0:20:180:20:22

We've got six weeks to do a year's worth of trade,

0:20:220:20:26

so it's a lot of pressure

0:20:260:20:28

but touching wood it's going well over the summer so,

0:20:280:20:32

if we keep it up, it should make the winter easier.

0:20:320:20:36

Business may be Dave's priority

0:20:370:20:40

but so is the grand finale of the Round Table event.

0:20:400:20:43

You see people standing at the top there so that's a good sign.

0:20:430:20:47

And now the rain's stopped,

0:20:470:20:48

hopefully they'll hang about for the spectacular.

0:20:480:20:51

So, er, it's sounding good anyway.

0:20:510:20:55

Back down the harbour,

0:20:560:20:58

PCs Lewis and Thomas are drinking in the atmosphere.

0:20:580:21:01

The lads group dancing.

0:21:010:21:03

Always better for the band when there's a large audience.

0:21:030:21:09

All smiling faces - hopefully.

0:21:100:21:13

-I'm just keeping an eye on things here.

-Yeah.

0:21:150:21:19

Earlier, some boys were up here and were chucking cans down, so, er,

0:21:190:21:23

we're keeping an eye on things now.

0:21:230:21:25

The bin's supplied. We supplied the bin for you.

0:21:260:21:29

Nice and easy. Good. Thank you.

0:21:290:21:33

Service is in full swing at the wedding reception.

0:21:380:21:42

This is young chef Phil's 25th function this year at the hotel.

0:21:460:21:49

We need a veg for six.

0:21:490:21:52

Normal six veg.

0:21:520:21:54

When you see the dining room,

0:21:560:21:58

it makes you proud to cook for them people.

0:21:580:21:59

You can see there's love gone into the dining room

0:21:590:22:02

so you want to make a little bit more effort

0:22:020:22:05

within the kitchen.

0:22:050:22:06

That's good. Say yes for me please.

0:22:060:22:08

-Yes.

-Yes.

0:22:080:22:10

Everything's gone smoothly and both Samantha and Darren have enjoyed it.

0:22:100:22:18

You can tell.

0:22:180:22:19

-It's been fantastic.

-It's been brilliant.

0:22:200:22:23

We couldn't have asked for it to go better.

0:22:230:22:25

It's been flawless - it's been perfect.

0:22:250:22:29

And for Phil the chef?

0:22:290:22:31

A bit fast but it went well.

0:22:310:22:34

A few little hiccups there but it went well. Quick!

0:22:340:22:37

The boys did really well - seeing as we didn't have Paul and Griff,

0:22:370:22:40

the normal two chefs but, yeah, it went really, really well.

0:22:400:22:44

I'm proud of them. They've done really, really well today.

0:22:440:22:47

At Tenby's refuse depot,

0:22:590:23:01

Ron is about to unload all of today's pickings from the beaches.

0:23:010:23:07

-What are you doing tonight?

-I'm doing nothing.

0:23:070:23:09

I'm going to sleep!

0:23:090:23:11

It's a lovely job.

0:23:150:23:17

Who wouldn't want my job?! You don't feel like you're coming to work.

0:23:170:23:20

I'm tired now. I've had enough now.

0:23:200:23:22

I want to finish now. I want to retire.

0:23:220:23:25

I'm 60 next month, so...

0:23:250:23:28

It's tiring on your legs.

0:23:280:23:30

And carrying these bags in and out all the time.

0:23:300:23:32

My back's a bit iffy and my arms are a bit iffy.

0:23:320:23:35

-So...

-Wouldn't you miss it?

0:23:350:23:38

No, because it's always here, isn't it?

0:23:380:23:41

I can come and sit on the beach any time and watch somebody else do it.

0:23:410:23:43

And think, "They're not doing that properly!"

0:23:430:23:46

But that would be the problem if you left.

0:23:460:23:49

But, um, I'm hoping to finish this year

0:23:490:23:51

but whether they'll let me or not is a different matter.

0:23:510:23:55

As the evening draws to a close,

0:24:040:24:06

it's time for the grand finale of Dave's Summer Spectacular.

0:24:060:24:10

A lot of families coming down

0:24:140:24:15

especially for this last 10-15 minutes.

0:24:150:24:17

They'll stay away

0:24:170:24:19

but then they know how good the fireworks are.

0:24:190:24:21

We've got 11 minutes, something like that.

0:24:210:24:24

It's been a long day. Nearly the end of a long day.

0:24:240:24:27

So far, the event has been trouble free.

0:24:290:24:32

But PC Lewis has been called to a sudden emergency.

0:24:320:24:35

Can you all clear the street, please? There's an ambulance coming through.

0:24:350:24:38

Clear the street. Can you go on the pavement, please, girls?

0:24:380:24:41

Can you all clear on to the pavement?

0:24:410:24:43

14-year-old intoxicated female.

0:24:450:24:47

-Fallen over a bit.

-Has someone collapsed?

0:24:470:24:49

-Somebody's collapsed.

-Is it down on the beach?

0:24:490:24:52

With alcohol. No assaults, no assaults.

0:24:520:24:54

Looking back, we can see the state that some youngsters have got into.

0:24:560:25:02

Whilst we thought everything was going well,

0:25:020:25:06

they are secretly drinking and getting into states.

0:25:060:25:12

In the back of the ambulance here,

0:25:120:25:15

we can see the poor 14-year-old, who is out for the count.

0:25:150:25:20

Luckily, this has taken place slightly off main focus,

0:25:200:25:25

which is helpful.

0:25:250:25:28

Go on, Ed, you know what you're getting.

0:25:340:25:36

Ed, you know where you go. Ed, Ed!

0:25:360:25:40

Noisy celebrations are a concern to horseman Steve Phillips.

0:25:400:25:45

He's worried they may upset Mr Ed and Major Tom.

0:25:450:25:49

Tonight, it's the fireworks down at the harbour.

0:25:490:25:52

And, because of that,

0:25:520:25:54

I'm in the stable a little bit later than normal.

0:25:540:25:57

Just to make sure the horses are all right

0:25:570:25:59

and don't get overly frightened.

0:25:590:26:01

I'll stay with them all the way through,

0:26:010:26:03

just to make sure they're OK

0:26:030:26:04

and don't do themselves a mischief.

0:26:040:26:06

It's only really four or five times in the summer it goes on.

0:26:080:26:12

So it's not worth taking the chance really.

0:26:120:26:15

And also the additional people it brings in for the town.

0:26:150:26:18

It's well worth it.

0:26:180:26:20

I think all the businesses benefit.

0:26:200:26:23

The town was packed today, which was great.

0:26:230:26:26

Dave and his Round Table colleagues

0:26:320:26:34

have raised thousands of pounds for charity.

0:26:340:26:37

Now all he has to worry about

0:26:390:26:40

is those fireworks going off with a bang,

0:26:400:26:43

and savouring the moment with his wife, Steph.

0:26:430:26:46

Please, please, please, please...

0:26:470:26:49

One, two, here we go!

0:26:490:26:53

-Here we go!

-Wahey!

0:26:530:26:57

FIREWORKS EXPLODE

0:27:080:27:12

All right, Tom. All right. All right.

0:27:120:27:14

Ed hasn't moved from his hay net.

0:27:220:27:24

He's very, very upset.

0:27:240:27:27

I want to keep him at the door now.

0:27:300:27:32

I don't want him moving about the stable.

0:27:320:27:34

It's finished, anyway, boy!

0:27:360:27:38

FIREWORKS EXPLODE

0:27:380:27:39

I can't be interested in the fireworks.

0:27:420:27:46

I've got to be watching the crowd.

0:27:460:27:48

Brilliant, fantastic!

0:27:540:27:56

I'm well pleased.

0:27:560:27:58

I'm very proud of him, really proud of him.

0:27:580:28:02

I can't believe he can do this but he can't do the washing up at home.

0:28:020:28:06

Next time on Tenby 24/7,

0:28:120:28:16

brother Jonathan and Matthew make some heavenly chocolate

0:28:160:28:19

on Caldey Island.

0:28:190:28:21

The monks actually made this.

0:28:210:28:23

You go away and pray for an hour,

0:28:230:28:24

-you come back and the chocolate can be ruined.

-And a load on this one.

0:28:240:28:28

Dai The Boot is on the money at the Sea Bass Festival.

0:28:280:28:30

Right, we'll start at 10. Give me 10 anywhere? 20.

0:28:300:28:34

And the Tenby RNLI are busy saving lives at sea.
