0:00:02 > 0:00:06- These anxious Casanovas all have one thing in common. - I feel like a proper bear!
0:00:06 > 0:00:08- It is last-minute?- Very last-minute.
0:00:08 > 0:00:10Oh, this is stressful already! God!
0:00:10 > 0:00:13They're about to ask the biggest question of their lives.
0:00:13 > 0:00:16I'm looking to propose to my girlfriend.
0:00:16 > 0:00:20- I'm going to ask her to marry me. - I'm thinking about proposing.
0:00:20 > 0:00:22# And the love kick-starts again... #
0:00:22 > 0:00:26But these boys won't just be getting down on one knee.
0:00:26 > 0:00:28- I can move, but I can't see. - The sky's the limit...
0:00:28 > 0:00:31- This is my pheasant view. - You're joking?
0:00:31 > 0:00:36- ..as they make their move... - Is she going to like this or is she going to go, "What?"
0:00:36 > 0:00:39..all hoping to sweep the love of their lives right off their feet.
0:00:39 > 0:00:43I think it's going to be the most exhilarating proposal ever.
0:00:43 > 0:00:46But as they try to pop the question in the most romantic...
0:00:46 > 0:00:48- She didn't see it! - ..inventive..
0:00:48 > 0:00:50She would never expect me to be doing it like this.
0:00:50 > 0:00:53..and jaw-droppingly brilliant way possible...
0:00:53 > 0:00:54She'd better say yes!
0:00:54 > 0:00:59..who has what it takes to pull off the greatest proposal?
0:00:59 > 0:01:00Oh, my God.
0:01:00 > 0:01:01Oh, my God.
0:01:01 > 0:01:02Oh, my God.
0:01:02 > 0:01:05So join us for a very special engagement.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08- Just don't tell the bride-to-be. - I'm worried- I- might cry!
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Tonight there will be seven surprise proposals
0:01:22 > 0:01:24and seven new brides-to-be,
0:01:24 > 0:01:27if everything goes off without a hitch.
0:01:27 > 0:01:32The unsuspecting partners think they're being filmed for a programme about relationships,
0:01:32 > 0:01:34and are totally in the dark about the plans.
0:01:36 > 0:01:39First up is 22-year-old supermarket manager Nik
0:01:39 > 0:01:41and his girlfriend, Katie.
0:01:41 > 0:01:43They're madly in love.
0:01:43 > 0:01:47But there is one thing that Katie holds nearly as dear as her man,
0:01:47 > 0:01:49her favourite TV programme, Glee.
0:01:49 > 0:01:53# Don't stop believing... #
0:01:53 > 0:01:55Nik plans to propose to Katie in a style
0:01:55 > 0:01:59that would have those all-singing kids at McKinley High
0:01:59 > 0:02:03reaching for their pom-poms and screaming, "Hell yeah!"
0:02:03 > 0:02:05It was about a year ago I realised Katie was the one.
0:02:05 > 0:02:08I've started saving for a ring in the last couple of months.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10She is the other half of my puzzle.
0:02:10 > 0:02:14I want to move in together, and I want to spend the rest of my life with her.
0:02:14 > 0:02:17If I'm going to propose to Katie, it has to be the biggest, the best,
0:02:17 > 0:02:21and everybody has to know about it and know how much she means to me.
0:02:21 > 0:02:23She's the sort of girl that likes music, dance,
0:02:23 > 0:02:26she likes the arts, she likes theatre, she likes dramatics,
0:02:26 > 0:02:28and this is what my planned proposal's going to be.
0:02:28 > 0:02:30# ..Don't stop. #
0:02:30 > 0:02:34But this relationship wasn't always so gleeful.
0:02:34 > 0:02:36We met at work.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39I did not like Nik at all when I first met him.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41He really irritated me and was very, very annoying.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45- About six months later... - We went for a Chinese.
0:02:45 > 0:02:48Which he made me pay half for,
0:02:48 > 0:02:51and then that was it, I suppose.
0:02:51 > 0:02:53- Went from there.- That was it, yeah! - Had me hooked!
0:02:53 > 0:02:55Let's hope he's made a better impression
0:02:55 > 0:02:57on the future mother-in-law.
0:02:59 > 0:03:03We're off to see Katie's mum now. We're going to ask her if she doesn't mind me marrying her daughter.
0:03:03 > 0:03:06# Say a little prayer for you... #
0:03:06 > 0:03:09- Hello. You all right?- Yeah, come in.
0:03:09 > 0:03:15The big reason I'm here is because I'm going to ask her to marry me
0:03:15 > 0:03:19if I get your permission, and that's the reason I'm here.
0:03:19 > 0:03:20Right, OK.
0:03:20 > 0:03:23Cos obviously, Katie, you know, respects you,
0:03:23 > 0:03:25and it's only right that I ask you first.
0:03:25 > 0:03:28If it doesn't happen, it won't go off, so...
0:03:28 > 0:03:30I've got no objections.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32Thank you very much. Wonderful.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36The idea is that we're going to take Katie to the Trafford Centre,
0:03:36 > 0:03:39hopefully, if you're willing, you're going to walk her in,
0:03:39 > 0:03:42and there's going to be a flash mob sort of thing,
0:03:42 > 0:03:44a lot of people singing and dancing.
0:03:44 > 0:03:49You may see tears, but I think she'll be pleasantly surprised!
0:03:49 > 0:03:50Great, wonderful.
0:03:50 > 0:03:51Thank you for all your help.
0:03:51 > 0:03:54- You're welcome! Good luck! - Thank you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:57'She doesn't like surprises too much, but I think she's going to go for this.'
0:03:57 > 0:04:01I think she's going to see the big gesture and think, "Wow."
0:04:01 > 0:04:05But how will Nik pull off a performance worthy of Glee?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07Luckily for our supermarket manager,
0:04:07 > 0:04:10it's a two-for-one, as Adam's here to help.
0:04:10 > 0:04:12The big idea would be a flash mob,
0:04:12 > 0:04:17you know, you see on the TV where they all turn up together,
0:04:17 > 0:04:19disappear off together, people start singing,
0:04:19 > 0:04:21people start dancing, jumping around,
0:04:21 > 0:04:23people have no idea what's going on.
0:04:23 > 0:04:26It'll attract a crowd, bring people in,
0:04:26 > 0:04:29and I think that'll be a cracking idea.
0:04:29 > 0:04:32Obviously we need to think of songs, find dancers.
0:04:32 > 0:04:35The flash mob idea's set. We know we're going with that.
0:04:35 > 0:04:38We need to think of where and how we keep you hidden.
0:04:38 > 0:04:40We need some costume to hide you.
0:04:40 > 0:04:44You know football mascots, where you've got a full costume and a big headpiece?
0:04:44 > 0:04:47I think that is perfect.
0:04:47 > 0:04:50You've got free hands and you can't tell who it is at all.
0:04:50 > 0:04:55That's the sort of thing I want. Whether it's a lion, a shark or a kangaroo,
0:04:55 > 0:04:59- that's the sort of thing I want. - The big head's brilliant. I think the pirate's too far!
0:04:59 > 0:05:01Costume shops in Manchester...
0:05:03 > 0:05:05It might not be typically Glee,
0:05:05 > 0:05:08but a furry animal suit will keep Nik's identity hidden.
0:05:08 > 0:05:10ADAM LAUGHS
0:05:10 > 0:05:11Seven foot cat.
0:05:11 > 0:05:13I can move, but I can't see.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16Question is, which novelty costume says,
0:05:16 > 0:05:19"I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you?"
0:05:19 > 0:05:22I think it could work, but we need to carry on looking for a bit.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25This needs to be our backup, for the time being, anyway.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28Nik's theatrical proposal is gathering steam.
0:05:28 > 0:05:29He has his song,
0:05:29 > 0:05:31but what he really needs now
0:05:31 > 0:05:36is the one thing no flash mob can be without - a mob.
0:05:36 > 0:05:38'Tonight we're here at Salford University
0:05:38 > 0:05:44'to see some dancers that have agreed to join in for my little proposal.'
0:05:44 > 0:05:48- Hi, guys.- This is Nik and Adam.
0:05:48 > 0:05:51So we're going to show them what we've done so far.
0:05:51 > 0:05:55- MUSIC STARTS - Five, six, seven, eight!
0:05:55 > 0:05:59# You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs
0:06:02 > 0:06:07# But I look around me and I see it isn't so... #
0:06:11 > 0:06:13'The guys are absolutely fantastic.'
0:06:13 > 0:06:17The dance they've done is just what I was after.
0:06:17 > 0:06:21I think we need to talk about sort of staging.
0:06:21 > 0:06:24We're going to need groups of people coming in at different times.
0:06:24 > 0:06:26It's quite good you had them in rows,
0:06:26 > 0:06:30so maybe row one will start off and then row two will join in
0:06:30 > 0:06:32and then row three would join in after that.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Are you going to be doing any of these moves?
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Maybe one or two towards the end.
0:06:36 > 0:06:39This costume I've got, it's got a ridiculous head,
0:06:39 > 0:06:42and I'm talking like it comes up to here.
0:06:42 > 0:06:45If I bend forward, the head'll fall off.
0:06:45 > 0:06:48- That's going to be game over.- You'll knock a few dancers over!- Yeah!
0:06:48 > 0:06:51- Right, so, come in the middle. - Oh, dear.
0:06:51 > 0:06:53I have never danced before, by the way.
0:06:53 > 0:06:56So basically it's four walks forward
0:06:56 > 0:07:01and one, two, three, four, love you,
0:07:01 > 0:07:04two, three, four. Yeah.
0:07:04 > 0:07:06I am more scared of doing that than proposing.
0:07:08 > 0:07:10More scared of that.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13Would you prefer it if two girls were slightly in front of you?
0:07:13 > 0:07:16And tall guys at the back, sort of there as well, that'll be great!
0:07:16 > 0:07:19It's becoming real now, we've asked her mum
0:07:19 > 0:07:22and we've got the dancers, so we just need to go see some singers
0:07:22 > 0:07:24and some break dancers and we're there.
0:07:24 > 0:07:27MUSIC: "Silly Love Songs"
0:07:29 > 0:07:33The spin and the flip at the beginning are great, can we get that in at the start?
0:07:39 > 0:07:43I have got one small favour to ask you.
0:07:43 > 0:07:46I also want you to dress up.
0:07:46 > 0:07:50We've got one wig which I think this lad looks good for.
0:07:52 > 0:07:57- It could be your...- Whoa, don't you start laughing! Nice pair of glasses for you there.
0:07:57 > 0:07:59Maybe a bit tight, but...
0:07:59 > 0:08:01NIK LAUGHS
0:08:01 > 0:08:05I think we can definitely pull that off. That wig suits you, just so you know.
0:08:05 > 0:08:08Mate, it's good. It's good.
0:08:08 > 0:08:11So Nik's booked the cream of the Salford dancing scene.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15But will his community choir from Knutsford hit the right note?
0:08:15 > 0:08:16HIGHPITCHED: # You think that people
0:08:16 > 0:08:20# Would have had enough of silly love songs... #
0:08:22 > 0:08:25Wonderful. Brilliant. Well done.
0:08:25 > 0:08:26Fantastic.
0:08:26 > 0:08:29The only thing I'd say is, is it a little bit too high?
0:08:29 > 0:08:31THE CHOIR LAUGH
0:08:31 > 0:08:34Can you come down slightly?
0:08:34 > 0:08:36We can try it, yeah.
0:08:36 > 0:08:41# You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs. #
0:08:41 > 0:08:45- Better?- Fantastic. Thank you very much, guys. Thank you very much.
0:08:45 > 0:08:48Couple of issues, but we've hurdled over them, and I think we're there.
0:08:48 > 0:08:51We've obviously got to set it up on Friday morning.
0:08:51 > 0:08:55Only problem we've had tonight is Katie getting a bit grumpy that I've not turned up in time,
0:08:55 > 0:08:58and I also think, "Is she going to like this,
0:08:58 > 0:09:01"is this going to be for her?" Or is she going to go,
0:09:01 > 0:09:04"What? You did this in front of all these people with all this?
0:09:04 > 0:09:06"What are you doing?"
0:09:06 > 0:09:07"Sorry, love."
0:09:07 > 0:09:09So let's hope to God it works.
0:09:10 > 0:09:14Nik might be worried about falling at the final hurdle.
0:09:14 > 0:09:15But in Fareham,
0:09:15 > 0:09:18youngster James is desperate to gallop off into the sunset
0:09:18 > 0:09:20with his horse-mad girlfriend Tiffany.
0:09:20 > 0:09:24Tiffany always tries to put other people before her.
0:09:24 > 0:09:27She is kind, she's loving, she is funny.
0:09:27 > 0:09:31I think she's beautiful. Yeah, I think she's perfect.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34And James is taking his inspiration
0:09:34 > 0:09:37from Tiffany's passion for four-legged fillies.
0:09:37 > 0:09:42My proposal plan is to get Tiffany riding on a horse in the arena,
0:09:42 > 0:09:44getting her to do jumps,
0:09:44 > 0:09:49and paint on one side of the jump, "Will you marry me?"
0:09:49 > 0:09:51Hopefully she'll see it.
0:09:51 > 0:09:54Otherwise I'm going to have to think of something quick.
0:09:54 > 0:09:59I want to make sure I get it right so that she knows I love her and I want to spend my life with her.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04There's no time for horsing around.
0:10:04 > 0:10:07James and his mates have a course to build and a sign to paint.
0:10:07 > 0:10:11- You won't actually be able to paint on the wood.- Yeah, that's fine.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13So what are we going to paint on?
0:10:13 > 0:10:16It doesn't necessarily have to be on the jump.
0:10:20 > 0:10:22I'm very nervous at the moment.
0:10:22 > 0:10:27It's all coming together now, so it's a bit surreal at the moment.
0:10:27 > 0:10:29Yeah, that's good, I'm happy.
0:10:29 > 0:10:32A bit squashed at the end, but she'll get the point.
0:10:46 > 0:10:50- I bet you're wondering what you're doing here.- Yep! Just a tad!
0:10:50 > 0:10:52We've got a birthday surprise, but we're going to...
0:10:52 > 0:10:54You've got a riding lesson booked,
0:10:54 > 0:10:56we've got a little something after as well,
0:10:56 > 0:10:58but I'm sure you'll love it,
0:10:58 > 0:11:03- cos I'm sure you're dying to get back on the horse, aren't you?- Yeah.
0:11:03 > 0:11:06This is our indoor school, we hold shows and competitions here.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- I expect you've been before. - Yes.- It's huge!
0:11:10 > 0:11:12It's all real now.
0:11:12 > 0:11:16In the next, probably, 15 minutes it's all going to happen.
0:11:16 > 0:11:19# Jump for my love
0:11:19 > 0:11:23# Jump in and feel my touch
0:11:23 > 0:11:26# Jump! If you want to take my kisses... #
0:11:26 > 0:11:28James's big moment has arrived.
0:11:28 > 0:11:30He's got a horse, he's got a sign,
0:11:30 > 0:11:32he's got an engagement ring.
0:11:32 > 0:11:36Sadly, he doesn't have a particularly observant girlfriend.
0:11:39 > 0:11:41She didn't see it!
0:11:45 > 0:11:47Oh, my God.
0:11:47 > 0:11:48Look up.
0:11:51 > 0:11:53Look to your right.
0:11:54 > 0:11:57- Oh, my God.- Would you like to get off your horse?- Yes.
0:12:02 > 0:12:06I love you so much and you've made me the person I am today. So will you marry me?
0:12:06 > 0:12:08Yeah!
0:12:08 > 0:12:12No proposal would be complete without family and friends who've been hiding away.
0:12:12 > 0:12:15- Oh, my God! - CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:12:15 > 0:12:19Although, let's face it, they didn't need to hide that well.
0:12:20 > 0:12:24Oh, my God, oh, my God. Thank you! Thank you!
0:12:24 > 0:12:29- Thank you all for coming. Obviously I wanted to make it special for Tiffany.- It was!
0:12:29 > 0:12:32I do love her so much and want to spend the rest of my life with her.
0:12:32 > 0:12:33- ALL:- Aaah!
0:12:33 > 0:12:35APPLAUSE
0:12:35 > 0:12:37'I'd never have thought you'd do that.'
0:12:37 > 0:12:41I thought you'd have done something more cheesy, You know what I mean,
0:12:41 > 0:12:44like take me to a restaurant, but it's something I absolutely love,
0:12:44 > 0:12:46and that's made me happy already.
0:12:46 > 0:12:50But despite a job well done, it looks like James's work is just beginning.
0:12:50 > 0:12:53We have to start planning the wedding now. Yay!
0:12:55 > 0:12:58Oh, is that the time?
0:12:58 > 0:12:59What a mare!
0:13:03 > 0:13:05Over in Basingstoke, 28-year-old Will
0:13:05 > 0:13:08is literally head over heels in love with his girlfriend,
0:13:08 > 0:13:12synchronised swimming fanatic Kirsten.
0:13:12 > 0:13:16She is my world, she's my everything. She's my number one priority. I love her to bits.
0:13:18 > 0:13:21We first met at the leisure centre ten years ago.
0:13:21 > 0:13:25We were both lifeguards. I thought she was way out of my league,
0:13:25 > 0:13:29and I thought, "There's no chance, but I'm going to try." We've been together now for five years,
0:13:29 > 0:13:33and we're expecting our first child at the end of this month.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37Will has a plan to ensure his proposal to Kirsten goes swimmingly.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40Ten years ago Kirsten was part of a synchronised swimming team,
0:13:40 > 0:13:45it seems prudent to maybe have synchronised swimmers there as part of the proposal as well.
0:13:45 > 0:13:50Will's arranged for a team of synchronised swimmers to help him pull off his perfect proposal.
0:13:50 > 0:13:52I've been speaking with a team.
0:13:52 > 0:13:55They've agreed to come down and do a sequence.
0:13:55 > 0:13:58She might not like to be proposed to in a leisure centre,
0:13:58 > 0:14:04she might prefer a nice Eiffel Tower or a meal or whatever, but for me it signifies where we met.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06She could be swearing at me, I hope not.
0:14:09 > 0:14:16The countdown to the proposal has begun and it's time for Will to fine tune his grand plan.
0:14:16 > 0:14:18I've hidden the ring in my office.
0:14:18 > 0:14:22This was the sort of ring she was after. She didn't want the typical single diamond.
0:14:22 > 0:14:26I hope this is the one that will get her to say yes.
0:14:28 > 0:14:31I've got one of my best mates, Adam, helping me out.
0:14:31 > 0:14:34Also, potentially my future brother-in-law, Kyle,
0:14:34 > 0:14:37who I want to be there as my wing men.
0:14:37 > 0:14:41I will feel safer and less stressed with someone there to unload the pressure to.
0:14:41 > 0:14:48I need your help to figure out where the guests will come from, where we will seat everyone.
0:14:48 > 0:14:53There are a couple of team changes which we can hide everyone in.
0:14:53 > 0:14:56- Who's bringing her in?- You will be bringing her in.- OK.
0:14:56 > 0:15:02Adam, I'll want you to be here with champagne, flowers, balloons.
0:15:02 > 0:15:05Everything you'll be carrying out, we need to now go out and get.
0:15:05 > 0:15:10- We've got a couple of hours. - It's last-minute then? - Very! Excited?- Absolutely!
0:15:10 > 0:15:12Let's go!
0:15:12 > 0:15:17Will is taking the plunge in less than four hours. Not long to get every detail perfect.
0:15:17 > 0:15:21I want to get a bouquet for tonight. I'm proposing to my future fiancee.
0:15:21 > 0:15:27- Do you know her favourite flower? - I'll go with whatever you think. You're the expert.- OK.
0:15:30 > 0:15:33We start the tasting with non-vintage champagne.
0:15:33 > 0:15:36COUGHING
0:15:36 > 0:15:38I think we'll take that one!
0:15:40 > 0:15:46With the bouquet and bubbly chosen, Will is dashing to the leisure centre for his big splash.
0:15:46 > 0:15:51I have told her I'm treating her to a meal tonight with family and friends.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54She thinks four of us are going out tonight.
0:15:54 > 0:15:59She'll be coming to see the synchronised swimmers beforehand.
0:15:59 > 0:16:04I said, "Do you want to see them for an hour and when I finish work, we can go for a meal?"
0:16:04 > 0:16:10Fingers crossed, that should go to plan and she shouldn't ask too many questions.
0:16:10 > 0:16:13If she does, I need a contingency plan.
0:16:16 > 0:16:22It's all coming together nicely, with swimmers in the pool and family and friends arriving as planned.
0:16:22 > 0:16:28Everyone is doing their best to make things run smoothly. That is, unless you count Kirsten.
0:16:28 > 0:16:31PHONE RINGS Hello, gorg! All right?
0:16:31 > 0:16:34What time are they on? They're in now, doing their stuff.
0:16:34 > 0:16:41They've also got a load of video cameras, because they are filming for something, I dunno.
0:16:41 > 0:16:44There've been risk assessments all day for it. Why?
0:16:44 > 0:16:50No, come at seven because I've got to have a meeting with Steve still otherwise I won't see you.
0:16:50 > 0:16:52Is that all right? See you, babe.
0:16:52 > 0:16:58That was tough. She said, why don't we just come now? What time are they swimming.
0:16:58 > 0:17:03Obviously, she doesn't want a drink at the pub, she wants to come here and ruin everything!
0:17:03 > 0:17:08But I blagged it so she will be here at seven. Job done! Carry on as planned.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17Does everyone want to follow me and we'll go straight down?
0:17:18 > 0:17:25Guys, thanks for coming. You are going to be shoved in a corner. I'm sorry!
0:17:25 > 0:17:29- How long have we got?- Literally 15 minutes. I've got to get changed.
0:17:29 > 0:17:36If you guys just want to bundle in wherever you want to bundle. Just be patient. And cheers for coming!
0:17:36 > 0:17:45We're not sure if it will be tears or excitement. But definitely 100% right up her street.
0:17:45 > 0:17:51- Definitely. She is always about big celebrations.- Everything has to be as big as it can be.
0:17:51 > 0:17:53- It's perfect!- Yeah.
0:17:53 > 0:17:57I'm just worried about Kirsten's reaction! She's very close to having her baby.
0:17:57 > 0:18:00So I hope she doesn't have a pool delivery!
0:18:04 > 0:18:10So far, the preparations have gone well. It's just these last final moments.
0:18:10 > 0:18:14I have to figure out what to say. I hope everything falls in line.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Ah, ring! That's one thing I do need to get.
0:18:21 > 0:18:22Right! Good to go!
0:18:23 > 0:18:28- Where is she?- Where is she? She will be here in literally two minutes. Let's go!
0:18:29 > 0:18:35Right on cue, Kirsten arrives. Time to make like a swimmer, and hold your breath.
0:18:40 > 0:18:43Five, six, seven, eight.
0:18:43 > 0:18:47MUSIC: "The Ring Song" by Bruno Mars.
0:18:58 > 0:19:04# Don't say no, no, no, no, no Just say, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
0:19:04 > 0:19:11# And we'll go, go, go, go, go Cos it's ready, like I'm ready
0:19:11 > 0:19:18# Cos it's a beautiful night We're looking for something dumb to do
0:19:18 > 0:19:22# Hey, baby I think I want to marry you
0:19:24 > 0:19:28# Is it the look in your eyes? Or is it this dancing juice... #
0:19:28 > 0:19:30Oh, my God!
0:19:30 > 0:19:32GIGGLING
0:19:32 > 0:19:35Oh, my God!
0:19:35 > 0:19:36Why...?
0:19:36 > 0:19:38Oh, my God, Will!
0:19:38 > 0:19:40Uh...
0:19:40 > 0:19:43- It is all for you.- Oh, my God!
0:19:43 > 0:19:47- Will you marry me?- Of course I will! Oh, my God!
0:19:47 > 0:19:51CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:20:01 > 0:20:04Yeah, I'm getting married!
0:20:07 > 0:20:10That's amazing!
0:20:10 > 0:20:13Why aren't you crying? I'm crying. You're not.
0:20:13 > 0:20:17It's because...it's hard to take in. Will...
0:20:21 > 0:20:26It was amazing. I thought the synchronised swimmers were amazing!
0:20:26 > 0:20:32The perfect touch was brilliant. I had no idea. It doesn't feel real yet.
0:20:32 > 0:20:36I don't know! Everyone is here and it is just amazing. And thank you very much.
0:20:43 > 0:20:48Back up north, supermarket manager Nik is making a real song and dance about his proposal.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53He's going to pop the question with the help of an all-singing,
0:20:53 > 0:20:56all-dancing, Glee-style spectacular.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59In Manchester...
0:21:02 > 0:21:05So, the costume has been delivered today.
0:21:05 > 0:21:06I feel like a proper bear.
0:21:08 > 0:21:10Katie's getting a bit uppity with me.
0:21:10 > 0:21:13I've not been around a lot the last couple of days.
0:21:13 > 0:21:15I got a text message last night -
0:21:15 > 0:21:18"Where are you? You're taking the mick now."
0:21:18 > 0:21:22The kisses on the text messages are getting less and less each day.
0:21:22 > 0:21:25They started off without about ten and we're down to about two now.
0:21:25 > 0:21:30Hopefully Friday, she'll not be in such a bad mood and say yes.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34- ELVIS:- # Baby let me be Your lovin' teddy bear... #
0:21:34 > 0:21:37That is absolutely brilliant.
0:21:37 > 0:21:39Give the teddy a hug! Come on!
0:21:39 > 0:21:42- # ..Oh let me be.- Oh let him be
0:21:42 > 0:21:44# Your teddy bear. #
0:21:45 > 0:21:49Today is judgment day. D-day!
0:21:49 > 0:21:52I have absolutely no clue what her reaction will be.
0:21:52 > 0:21:54I'm worried I might cry.
0:21:55 > 0:21:56Crying...
0:21:56 > 0:21:58Not cool.
0:21:58 > 0:21:59Yeah, nervous.
0:21:59 > 0:22:01Butterflies like you wouldn't believe.
0:22:01 > 0:22:04Didn't sleep last night. Not one bit.
0:22:04 > 0:22:09At the minute, we are absolutely ram-stuck in traffic.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12We need to get to the Trafford Centre which is on the M60.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14Currently we're nowhere near the M60.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17We need to be in the Trafford Centre in 45 minutes.
0:22:17 > 0:22:20We are moving currently at three miles an hour.
0:22:20 > 0:22:22So if we carry on at this speed,
0:22:22 > 0:22:26the Trafford Centre is about 20 miles away.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29So, we'll be there in about four or five weeks.
0:22:30 > 0:22:33We're on the motorway - we're on the M60!
0:22:33 > 0:22:34Come on!
0:22:34 > 0:22:37We are going to make it.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39Nik arrives and, as the performers warm-up,
0:22:39 > 0:22:41cunningly disguised as ordinary folk,
0:22:41 > 0:22:43Nik gets into character,
0:22:43 > 0:22:48which isn't easy when your character's a bear in a tuxedo.
0:22:48 > 0:22:52MUSIC: "Teddy Bears' Picnic"
0:22:59 > 0:23:02Right on cue, an unwitting Katie arrives with her mum.
0:23:04 > 0:23:08Katie and her mum walked in. Katie's mum pointed at me.
0:23:08 > 0:23:10I waved. Katie just sort of went...
0:23:11 > 0:23:12and then ran off!
0:23:12 > 0:23:16It was great. She's seen me, which is the main thing - that's all we needed to happen.
0:23:16 > 0:23:19It'll make the magic all the more special.
0:23:19 > 0:23:20Everyone is in place.
0:23:20 > 0:23:24The performers are scattered around. Katie's friends and family
0:23:24 > 0:23:26are hidden on the upper balcony.
0:23:26 > 0:23:29And Nik? Well, Nik is still dressed as a bear.
0:23:29 > 0:23:32As Katie's mum leads her centre stage, it's show time.
0:23:32 > 0:23:36SOFT MUSIC STARTS
0:23:36 > 0:23:38What are you looking at?
0:23:38 > 0:23:40I don't know.
0:23:44 > 0:23:46It's that stupid bear again.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48What's he doing?
0:23:48 > 0:23:53# You'd think people would have had enough of silly love songs... #
0:23:53 > 0:23:57- Please don't start singing along. - Oh, all right.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01# But I look around me and I see it isn't so
0:24:04 > 0:24:07# Some people want to fill the world
0:24:07 > 0:24:09# With silly love songs
0:24:11 > 0:24:15# What's wrong with that
0:24:15 > 0:24:18# I'd like to know... #
0:24:18 > 0:24:19LAUGHING Shall we join in?
0:24:19 > 0:24:23# ..Cos here I go
0:24:23 > 0:24:27# Again
0:24:27 > 0:24:33# I love you
0:24:33 > 0:24:34# I love you
0:24:34 > 0:24:40# I love you... #
0:24:44 > 0:24:47The bear's coming for me!
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Oh, my God!
0:24:58 > 0:25:02Katie Barker, will you do me the honour of marrying me?
0:25:02 > 0:25:03Oh, my goodness! Yes!
0:25:03 > 0:25:06CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:25:24 > 0:25:26Was that you before?
0:25:26 > 0:25:27Yes, it was me. Yeah.
0:25:30 > 0:25:33I didn't want you knowing, did I? Crikey!
0:25:33 > 0:25:35I had no idea whatsoever.
0:25:35 > 0:25:37Anything.
0:25:37 > 0:25:40Such a shock, as you can tell by the tears.
0:25:40 > 0:25:43Such a weight off my shoulders. Do you like your ring?
0:25:43 > 0:25:44Yeah, it's beautiful.
0:25:44 > 0:25:46I'm very, very in love.
0:25:46 > 0:25:49As the curtain falls on Nik's performance,
0:25:49 > 0:25:53across the Pennines, lovable Lee is planning a performance of his own,
0:25:53 > 0:25:54worthy of a Hollywood idol.
0:25:54 > 0:25:58She's everything I look for in a girl.
0:25:58 > 0:26:02She's gorgeous, sexy, she has the same sense of humour.
0:26:02 > 0:26:04I've never felt like this about anyone.
0:26:04 > 0:26:05I think she's the one.
0:26:05 > 0:26:09Nothing tugs at the heartstrings like a good rom-com,
0:26:09 > 0:26:13and when 30-year-old footie fanatic Lee proposes to girlfriend Stacey,
0:26:13 > 0:26:16he is taking inspiration from her favourite film,
0:26:16 > 0:26:21a classic starring Hugh Grant, Colin Firth, and that bird off EastEnders.
0:26:21 > 0:26:25Her favourite film is Love Actually, and her favourite scene,
0:26:25 > 0:26:28where she always cries, is the one with the cards -
0:26:28 > 0:26:33when he knocks on the door and she opens it and reads the cards.
0:26:33 > 0:26:37I'd like to act that out in some way. I'm sure she'd love that.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40What are we going to start with?
0:26:42 > 0:26:44Um...
0:26:46 > 0:26:49I'm not good at all at writing romantic things.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52It'll be a challenge, but I'm looking forward to it
0:26:52 > 0:26:53and getting it right, I hope.
0:26:53 > 0:26:56- What does it say?- "Me you know...
0:26:56 > 0:26:58HE LAUGHS
0:26:58 > 0:27:00You'll have to do a black heart over that.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05- Have you done it?- That'll do.
0:27:07 > 0:27:09Stacey is down the local, having a quiet drink.
0:27:09 > 0:27:13She doesn't realise everyone she knows is round the back,
0:27:13 > 0:27:16ready to help Lee with his Love Actually proposal.
0:27:16 > 0:27:18Hiya. Are we all ready?
0:27:18 > 0:27:22So, everybody go round the back of Stacey and act surprised.
0:27:22 > 0:27:25If she says anything, just ignore her.
0:27:25 > 0:27:27My knees are banging together.
0:27:27 > 0:27:29Hello!
0:27:29 > 0:27:31Hello!
0:27:31 > 0:27:34As Stacey's family appear,
0:27:34 > 0:27:36it's time for our leading man to play his starring role.
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Oh, God.
0:27:38 > 0:27:40What the hell is going on?
0:27:43 > 0:27:44Oh, my God!
0:27:45 > 0:27:48MUSIC: "Someone Like You" by Adele
0:27:48 > 0:27:51# I heard
0:27:53 > 0:27:57# That you're settled down
0:27:57 > 0:27:59# That you found a girl
0:27:59 > 0:28:05# And you're married now... #
0:28:05 > 0:28:10LAUGHTER # I hope that your dreams came true
0:28:10 > 0:28:14# Guess she gave you things
0:28:14 > 0:28:17# I didn't give to you
0:28:17 > 0:28:20# Old friend
0:28:20 > 0:28:23# Why are you so shy?
0:28:25 > 0:28:28- # Ain't like you to hold back... # - Oh, my God.
0:28:28 > 0:28:31# ..Or hide from the light
0:28:31 > 0:28:35# I hate to turn up out of the blue
0:28:35 > 0:28:38# Uninvited But I couldn't stay away
0:28:38 > 0:28:39I couldn't fight it
0:28:39 > 0:28:42# I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
0:28:42 > 0:28:48# That for me, it isn't over
0:28:48 > 0:28:55# Never mind, I'll find someone like you
0:28:55 > 0:29:02# I wish nothing but the best for you, too
0:29:02 > 0:29:05# Don't forget me, I begged
0:29:05 > 0:29:09# I remember you said... #
0:29:09 > 0:29:11Will you marry me?
0:29:11 > 0:29:14Of course I will.
0:29:16 > 0:29:19CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
0:29:23 > 0:29:24I can't believe it...
0:29:27 > 0:29:29I think the proposal was beautiful.
0:29:29 > 0:29:33I can't believe it. That was my favourite part of that film.
0:29:33 > 0:29:35- Did you know that?- Yeah.- Aww.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38I'm in shock. I can't believe it.
0:29:38 > 0:29:41I'm still in shock.
0:29:41 > 0:29:45I can't believe you managed to organise this without me knowing.
0:29:45 > 0:29:47- See, you ARE romantic.- I am.
0:29:47 > 0:29:49I am.
0:29:49 > 0:29:54Yeah, he is. And that looks like true love...actually.
0:29:55 > 0:29:59There must be something in the Yorkshire water, because just down
0:29:59 > 0:30:04the road, 28-year-old Gavin has very high hopes for his proposal
0:30:04 > 0:30:06to 24-year-old beautician Dani.
0:30:06 > 0:30:11- Raise your eyebrows... I can see you don't trust me.- Ow!
0:30:11 > 0:30:14When me and Danielle met was kind of at the local disco.
0:30:14 > 0:30:19I saw her walk past and thought, "She's a stunner, she's beautiful."
0:30:19 > 0:30:21I was like, "I've got to speak to this girl."
0:30:21 > 0:30:23She said, "Give me your phone,
0:30:23 > 0:30:27"I'll put your phone number in and you can take me out for a drink."
0:30:27 > 0:30:29And I had a really old flip phone -
0:30:29 > 0:30:33she was like, "How do you dial into this phone?!" That kind of broke the ice.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Gavin's rubbish old phone brought them together,
0:30:35 > 0:30:38and now the couple have upgraded and shacked up.
0:30:38 > 0:30:41We've been together now just over two years.
0:30:41 > 0:30:45She's my future, I can't see anyone else even coming into it.
0:30:45 > 0:30:49- Hiya, you all right? - Hello! Nice to see you.
0:30:49 > 0:30:51Except for his mum, that is.
0:30:52 > 0:30:58Until Dani says yes, Gavin refuses to cut those apron strings.
0:30:58 > 0:31:01'People would say "Gavin's a mummy's boy.'
0:31:01 > 0:31:03If I need a doctor's appointment,
0:31:03 > 0:31:06she still does call the doctor's for me,
0:31:06 > 0:31:09and the dentist's, things like that.
0:31:09 > 0:31:13I might end up bringing some more down. Maybe at the weekend.
0:31:13 > 0:31:15No, I like to do it FOR you.
0:31:15 > 0:31:16So with Mum on top of his chores,
0:31:16 > 0:31:20Gavin has plenty of time to focus his attention on Dani.
0:31:20 > 0:31:23Do you think you're similar people or very different? >
0:31:23 > 0:31:27I think we're very different in terms of the characters we have.
0:31:27 > 0:31:30- I was going to say we're similar! - Really?
0:31:30 > 0:31:34Apparent differences aside, with his plans for a romantic proposal,
0:31:34 > 0:31:38Gavin has his head well and truly in the clouds.
0:31:38 > 0:31:41I'd like to do something really, really, quite romantic.
0:31:41 > 0:31:43I've had a couple of thoughts -
0:31:43 > 0:31:45maybe going out in a hot air balloon.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47Maybe having across the field
0:31:47 > 0:31:49something saying, "Will you marry me?"
0:31:49 > 0:31:52Something kind of... quite romantic, like that.
0:31:52 > 0:31:57Gavin might usually rely on his mum, but this one's a job for the boys.
0:31:57 > 0:32:00Cue mates Ash and Rob.
0:32:00 > 0:32:03This might be quite extravagant,
0:32:03 > 0:32:07but what I wanted to do is get a hot air balloon
0:32:07 > 0:32:10and have a message saying, "Will you marry me?"
0:32:10 > 0:32:16so obviously when we go up, that message is... Just a nice touch.
0:32:16 > 0:32:20So when you said the pressure's on, you weren't joking.
0:32:20 > 0:32:21We've got a lot to do.
0:32:21 > 0:32:24RINGING TONE 'Hello, Countryside Balloons?'
0:32:24 > 0:32:27Hi, I'm ringing regarding hiring a...
0:32:27 > 0:32:30Well, first of all, where are you based?
0:32:30 > 0:32:33'We only fly in Essex.'
0:32:33 > 0:32:37Oh, Essex? Sorry, I've just done a search in Google.
0:32:37 > 0:32:39Right, thanks a lot. Bye.
0:32:39 > 0:32:42RINGING TONE 'Hello, Countryside Balloons?'
0:32:42 > 0:32:45- Hi... Sorry, have I just spoke to you?- Yes.
0:32:45 > 0:32:48Sorry, I've just called you back, that's all.
0:32:48 > 0:32:53Maybe he SHOULD just get his mum to do it.
0:32:53 > 0:32:55'Thank you for calling Virgin Balloon Flights.
0:32:55 > 0:33:00'Our flying season has now finished and will not start again until 1st March 2012...'
0:33:00 > 0:33:02No good. Thank you.
0:33:02 > 0:33:04This is stressful already.
0:33:04 > 0:33:10- I think it's time to start thinking of a...- Back-up plan.
0:33:10 > 0:33:13Would you prefer a helicopter?
0:33:13 > 0:33:15She could sit and look out of a window.
0:33:15 > 0:33:17RINGING TONE 'Good morning...'
0:33:17 > 0:33:21- Do you do helicopter rides? - 'We do, yes.'
0:33:21 > 0:33:25I mean, where do you fly...? Could you fly over like, kind of a field?
0:33:25 > 0:33:28"Can you fly across fields?"(!)
0:33:30 > 0:33:34'We could pick you up from a nice hotel or somewhere in the countryside,
0:33:34 > 0:33:39'and then take you for a half an hour scenic tour over the area,
0:33:39 > 0:33:44'and then drop you back off at where we picked you up, if that's something you'd be interested in?'
0:33:44 > 0:33:46That would be absolutely perfect.
0:33:46 > 0:33:50'Shall I start planning it, and give you a call back this afternoon?'
0:33:50 > 0:33:53- Yeah, that would be fantastic.- Yeah!
0:33:53 > 0:33:56My God, my heart!
0:33:57 > 0:34:01That's brilliant. I think we're all a bit stressed.
0:34:01 > 0:34:04- Right, guys, let's crack on. - Yeah, time's ticking innit?
0:34:04 > 0:34:09MUSIC: "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)" by Beyonce
0:34:09 > 0:34:12Was there a particular type of ring?
0:34:12 > 0:34:17- She doesn't like single diamonds. - That rules out most of those then.
0:34:17 > 0:34:21These are classical styles, diamond cluster rings.
0:34:21 > 0:34:23These ones are quite nice, aren't they?
0:34:23 > 0:34:29That's an interesting ring, because they're Victorian-cut diamonds.
0:34:29 > 0:34:34So you have the individuality and the interesting aspect of having the older diamonds.
0:34:34 > 0:34:38That's beautiful. It's not just one kind of set.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42- What do you think, guys, yeah? - Yeah, it's awesome.
0:34:42 > 0:34:48Sparkle, sorted. But Gavin's left an important detail very late.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Time to call in a favour from a friend.
0:34:50 > 0:34:53We've got nothing to lose, have we?
0:34:53 > 0:34:57RINGING TONE 'Hell, what do YOU want?!'
0:34:57 > 0:35:03- How we doing, buddy? I need a massive favour.- 'Go on.'
0:35:03 > 0:35:06What are the chances of getting a banner printed tonight
0:35:06 > 0:35:08for first thing tomorrow?
0:35:08 > 0:35:13- Saying, "Will you marry me?" - MAN ON PHONE LAUGHS
0:35:13 > 0:35:16Don't bloody laugh! If you could help out, it would be fantastic.
0:35:16 > 0:35:21'I could get it printed tomorrow, but I couldn't get it done tonight.'
0:35:21 > 0:35:23No? What time maybe tomorrow?
0:35:23 > 0:35:27'I could probably get it ready for maybe about 10, 11 o'clock in the morning?'
0:35:27 > 0:35:30That would be brilliant.
0:35:30 > 0:35:35- I can't believe it came off in the first phone call! That's unreal.- Well done, Gav.
0:35:35 > 0:35:37It's the morning of the proposal.
0:35:37 > 0:35:42The sun's shining, but for Gavin, the pressure is becoming unbearable.
0:35:42 > 0:35:44I didn't sleep much at all.
0:35:44 > 0:35:49The nerves are just kicking in and it's just like, worry, excitement,
0:35:49 > 0:35:53all kind of....emotions flying out.
0:35:53 > 0:35:55It's just such an amazing kind of thing to do.
0:35:55 > 0:35:58But under the guise of a luxury day out for Dani,
0:35:58 > 0:36:02he's had to leave the finer details to the boys.
0:36:02 > 0:36:04The time is 20 past 11.
0:36:04 > 0:36:09We are waiting for the banner that Gav sent off his design for last night.
0:36:10 > 0:36:11- Is this it?- He's here.
0:36:15 > 0:36:18- There you go, fellas. - Are these the designs?
0:36:18 > 0:36:22With friends and family hiding inside the hall,
0:36:22 > 0:36:24Gavin reveals his first surprise of the day.
0:36:26 > 0:36:29Because we didn't get much for each other over Christmas...
0:36:29 > 0:36:34- this is my present for you. - You're joking?- No, no. This is...
0:36:37 > 0:36:40- This is the present. - Are we going up now?
0:36:41 > 0:36:44We've got 15 minutes, where they will fly off and be
0:36:44 > 0:36:49out of sight, and then we can get everyone out into position before they come back again.
0:36:49 > 0:36:52This is the quiet before the storm. They're on the way.
0:36:52 > 0:36:56- Been in a helicopter before? - Never.- First time?- Yeah!
0:37:01 > 0:37:03# Today this could be
0:37:05 > 0:37:09# The greatest day of our lives
0:37:09 > 0:37:13# Before it all ends
0:37:13 > 0:37:17# Before we run out of time
0:37:17 > 0:37:20# Stay close to me
0:37:22 > 0:37:24# Stay close to me... #
0:37:26 > 0:37:29Right, everyone! Get down there with the banners.
0:37:29 > 0:37:33Bring your drinks, but leave everything else here. We've got to get moving.
0:37:44 > 0:37:48# Let's make a new start
0:37:48 > 0:37:51# The future is ours to hold
0:37:53 > 0:37:55# Can you see it?
0:37:56 > 0:38:01# Can you see it in my eyes
0:38:01 > 0:38:07# Tonight... #
0:38:07 > 0:38:09CHEERING
0:38:09 > 0:38:12Oh, my God!
0:38:12 > 0:38:15# ..Tonight... #
0:38:21 > 0:38:23Oh, my...
0:38:25 > 0:38:29I've been really, really happy the last two years with you.
0:38:29 > 0:38:31You can't do that...!
0:38:31 > 0:38:34Will you marry me?
0:38:36 > 0:38:40WHOOPING AND CHEERING
0:38:40 > 0:38:42You're never speechless, what's going on?!
0:38:42 > 0:38:45I think we should celebrate now.
0:38:46 > 0:38:49CHEERING
0:38:53 > 0:38:56Right, guys, I know it was short notice,
0:38:56 > 0:39:00but erm...really happy that everyone could come and obviously thankful
0:39:00 > 0:39:06for you to be here and... let's have a good time and celebrate me and Dani.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10I'm feeling quite excited.
0:39:10 > 0:39:15Kind of scared that Gavin's good at lying to me! And hiding things.
0:39:16 > 0:39:19Still in shock. Quite a lot of shock.
0:39:19 > 0:39:24Right, guys, I want to thank you. I couldn't have done it without you.
0:39:24 > 0:39:27I can't believe it went as well as it did.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31After all the messing about yesterday, and the stress...
0:39:31 > 0:39:35He couldn't have done any better. No way.
0:39:35 > 0:39:39What a perfect location. Perfect couple. Couldn't have gone any better.
0:39:39 > 0:39:44'I thought I would know exactly what you were going to do when you were going to do it.'
0:39:44 > 0:39:47I didn't think he could be as organised, or as secretive.
0:39:47 > 0:39:49Secretive, yeah - but organised, no.
0:39:49 > 0:39:53Now I know you're more organised, I'll leave more things up to you!
0:39:53 > 0:39:55Aaah! Romantic.
0:39:55 > 0:39:59But with one couple safely back to earth,
0:39:59 > 0:40:02down in London, 27-year-old Jay is planning to take
0:40:02 > 0:40:06his relationship with girlfriend Hannah to new heights.
0:40:06 > 0:40:09Hannah is one of the most caring people
0:40:09 > 0:40:11I think most people ever meet in their lives.
0:40:11 > 0:40:15She's a phenomenal person. She's a really good friend.
0:40:15 > 0:40:16She knows how to bake!
0:40:18 > 0:40:20She makes THE best desserts.
0:40:20 > 0:40:22So she's found the way to HIS heart.
0:40:22 > 0:40:24But to sweep his childhood sweetheart off her feet,
0:40:24 > 0:40:29daredevil Jay is planning something even more heart-stopping than sticky puddings.
0:40:29 > 0:40:32MUSIC: Theme from "Mission: Impossible"
0:40:32 > 0:40:36I'm going to do something so outrageous and so jaw-dropping,
0:40:36 > 0:40:39I want her to be screaming as she sees me coming.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43And it was this kind of tough guy persona that made Jay
0:40:43 > 0:40:47the action man for Hannah in the first place.
0:40:47 > 0:40:51When I first got to know Jay, I was attracted to him.
0:40:51 > 0:40:53He looked a bit older than the other guys at school.
0:40:53 > 0:40:58He was into sort of...martial arts and he was quite fit.
0:41:00 > 0:41:05And because he was a bit of a lad, I was attracted to him. Yeah, definitely.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09I've never heard this before!
0:41:10 > 0:41:13Jay fancies himself as a fearless action hero.
0:41:13 > 0:41:16I like doing silly things.
0:41:16 > 0:41:20Very much like jumping out of aeroplanes, scuba diving,
0:41:20 > 0:41:21bungee jumping...
0:41:21 > 0:41:23I'm ready, guys!
0:41:28 > 0:41:30Jay likes to think he's a bit of an action hero.
0:41:30 > 0:41:34I don't know that he can keep up this image any more,
0:41:34 > 0:41:37because he used to do martial arts and sport,
0:41:37 > 0:41:40but he doesn't any more! So he kind of needs to drop the act a bit.
0:41:40 > 0:41:44Without Hannah suspecting a thing, Jay leaps into action,
0:41:44 > 0:41:49planning his special operation aided by his all-action sidekick,
0:41:49 > 0:41:52best mate, Alex.
0:41:52 > 0:41:55- All right?- Yeah, all good. - Good, good, good.
0:41:55 > 0:41:59As you know, I've enlisted you as my secret agent.
0:41:59 > 0:42:04- It's too much work, Jay.- Oh, mate. We've got to get this down on paper.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08- Military precision, ready to rock. - Are we sure?- Definitely.
0:42:08 > 0:42:11- Are we doing it?- Let's go. - High five.
0:42:11 > 0:42:14What do you think of something like abseiling?
0:42:14 > 0:42:18Make it a building, a huge monument, or something like that.
0:42:18 > 0:42:24- I like that idea. The cucumber!- You mean the Gherkin!- It's all the same.
0:42:24 > 0:42:26You numpty!
0:42:26 > 0:42:29Let's make a list of all the buildings you want to ring.
0:42:29 > 0:42:32Big Ben, the Gherkin, BT Tower.
0:42:32 > 0:42:37- BT Tower.- Tower Bridge. - Tower Bridge. I love that!
0:42:37 > 0:42:40Tower Bridge on to a boat!
0:42:40 > 0:42:43Hannah could be on a little boat, on a little cruise.
0:42:43 > 0:42:46- That would be...- Awesome!- Awesome!
0:42:46 > 0:42:51- Let's phone these places. - PHONE RINGS
0:42:51 > 0:42:53Hi, I'm wondering if you can help me.
0:42:53 > 0:42:56I'm looking to propose to my girlfriend of 12 years.
0:42:56 > 0:43:00So I'd like to essentially abseil off of the bridge.
0:43:00 > 0:43:06Right. That's totally fine. Bye.
0:43:06 > 0:43:10That's a no-go. Line through it. Right, BT Tower.
0:43:10 > 0:43:12One of them has got to say yes, Jay.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15PHONE RINGS
0:43:15 > 0:43:20I was wondering if it was possible if I could abseil down Big Ben.
0:43:20 > 0:43:24Definitely a no. OK, mate. Right.
0:43:24 > 0:43:26Many phone calls later,
0:43:26 > 0:43:31Jay finally enlists the help of Chris Milford, a real professional.
0:43:31 > 0:43:34- Hello, Jay.- Chris.- How are you? - Nice to meet you.
0:43:34 > 0:43:38Chris is a full-time action man who's scaled some of the tallest
0:43:38 > 0:43:41and most challenging buildings in Britain.
0:43:41 > 0:43:44He's got Jay access to the jaw-dropping 100 foot high
0:43:44 > 0:43:48vaulted ceiling at St Pancras Station.
0:43:48 > 0:43:51I have been looking at all the major London monuments -
0:43:51 > 0:43:56Tower Bridge, the Gherkin, phoning up even Big Ben,
0:43:56 > 0:44:01and they said, "No way, Jose." You know what, this is fantastic.
0:44:01 > 0:44:05We're going to be going up here. You'll be climbing right through all the girders,
0:44:05 > 0:44:09all the way up through there. It's a lot further than it looks.
0:44:09 > 0:44:13That will be our home base, then you will be abseiling down here.
0:44:13 > 0:44:16Fantastic. Absolutely fantastic.
0:44:16 > 0:44:19- I'm looking forward to this. - So am I.- I'm excited.- Fantastic.
0:44:19 > 0:44:25This is absolutely amazing. I could not have asked for any more.
0:44:25 > 0:44:31I think it's going to be the most exhilarating and exciting proposal ever.
0:44:31 > 0:44:35Having sorted a ceiling to dangle from, our wannabe special agent
0:44:35 > 0:44:40arranges a top-secret meeting with sidekick Alex and Hannah's sister Katie.
0:44:40 > 0:44:45Hi, guys. Are you all right? Thank you for meeting me here today.
0:44:45 > 0:44:47- That's OK.- That's all right. - Right.
0:44:47 > 0:44:50- Are you sure you want to do this? - I've bought the ring.
0:44:50 > 0:44:53Don't talk about proposing, I'm talking about abseiling down.
0:44:53 > 0:44:58Right, let's get on the phones. I've got to start calling people.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01It's one o'clock, champagne bar, King's Cross, St Pancreas.
0:45:01 > 0:45:03- Hi, Mum.- Nicky, it's only me.
0:45:03 > 0:45:05- I've got some news. - I'm ringing you about tomorrow.
0:45:05 > 0:45:07Can you do me a favour?
0:45:07 > 0:45:11We need you to be at King's Cross, St Pancras Station for one o'clock.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13- For one o'clock. - In the champagne bar.
0:45:13 > 0:45:16Meet in the champagne bar, can't tell Hannah.
0:45:16 > 0:45:19Put it this way, it's just going to be a phenomenal surprise.
0:45:19 > 0:45:23- I'll speak to you later then. - See you tomorrow.- Cool, bye.
0:45:23 > 0:45:27- So we are already to go?- Yeah.- Cool.
0:45:27 > 0:45:28- Shall we make a move?- Yeah.
0:45:28 > 0:45:31Whilst Jay waits for his big moment,
0:45:31 > 0:45:36across the River Thames, 28-year-old primary school teacher Sarah
0:45:36 > 0:45:38is taking advantage of the leap year
0:45:38 > 0:45:42and hoping to bowl over boyfriend Stuart when she pops the question.
0:45:42 > 0:45:47# Sisters are doing it for themselves... #
0:45:47 > 0:45:50'It is definitely true, I like to be in control.
0:45:50 > 0:45:54'And you could probably say this is why I'm proposing.'
0:45:54 > 0:45:58Leap year couldn't come at a better time, I've got to prove to Stuart
0:45:58 > 0:46:00I want to be with him and organise this.
0:46:00 > 0:46:02This is the biggest thing I've ever done
0:46:02 > 0:46:05and it's got to be for the most important person, which is Stuart.
0:46:05 > 0:46:10Sarah is planning to propose surrounded by Stuart's favourite things in the world,
0:46:10 > 0:46:14because nothing says romance like a load of fish.
0:46:16 > 0:46:18Stuart has a big interest in fish -
0:46:18 > 0:46:21where it lives, what it eats, what colour it is, the size of it -
0:46:21 > 0:46:23and they can't talk back to him like I do,
0:46:23 > 0:46:28so it's probably quite nice for him to have some peace and quiet from me.
0:46:28 > 0:46:31I chose the aquarium because that's his hobby.
0:46:31 > 0:46:33Oh wow!
0:46:33 > 0:46:36The idea is there are divers in the tank
0:46:36 > 0:46:38that have message boards for Stuart.
0:46:38 > 0:46:42I feel a little bit sick standing here, sick with nerves.
0:46:42 > 0:46:45My mouth has gone really dry.
0:46:45 > 0:46:48It's all been building up to this and this moment.
0:46:48 > 0:46:50Let's just hope she doesn't tank.
0:46:53 > 0:46:57Sarah's invited Stuart on a tour of the London Aquarium.
0:46:59 > 0:47:02Guys, welcome to the Atlantic Depths corridor.
0:47:06 > 0:47:12Everything you see down here is stuff that you would find off the coast of the UK.
0:47:12 > 0:47:16We've also got another very charismatic creature in here.
0:47:16 > 0:47:18It's our octopus.
0:47:18 > 0:47:22Has it ever escaped? I've read that they can get out of tanks.
0:47:22 > 0:47:25It's never escaped but we're very, very careful. We keep the lid on
0:47:25 > 0:47:28and we keep it on tight.
0:47:28 > 0:47:32- So far, Stuart hasn't smelt anything fishy.- This is our ray lagoon.
0:47:32 > 0:47:37All of the animals you see here you'd get off the coast of the UK.
0:47:37 > 0:47:42- I like the big one.- They've got all sorts in these tanks -
0:47:42 > 0:47:45eels, sharks...bloke carrying a sign with words on.
0:47:54 > 0:47:56You know you're everything to me.
0:47:56 > 0:48:00I want to show you how much I love you and I want to be with you.
0:48:00 > 0:48:03- Will you marry me?- Of course.
0:48:06 > 0:48:09- I've got something for you.- Why have you got something for me?
0:48:09 > 0:48:13I'm supposed to give something to you.
0:48:13 > 0:48:16I like to plan all the things. This is for you.
0:48:22 > 0:48:26THEY CHEER
0:48:26 > 0:48:28Oh my God!
0:48:28 > 0:48:31- Didn't expect it?- No.
0:48:33 > 0:48:37Happy, very happy, but absolutely speechless. Surprised.
0:48:37 > 0:48:39Didn't have a clue.
0:48:39 > 0:48:44The aquarium makes it special purely because that's my hobby.
0:48:44 > 0:48:47You see, I can think about you sometimes.
0:48:47 > 0:48:51- It would've been better if it was Sarah with the board in the tank. - I know, I know, I know.
0:48:51 > 0:48:53No, it's been brilliant.
0:48:53 > 0:48:57Cheers. Might just down it. THEY LAUGH
0:48:59 > 0:49:01Back above ground,
0:49:01 > 0:49:06action man Jay is planning to propose the only way he knows how -
0:49:06 > 0:49:10on a daredevil mission, but will this cupid's stunt pay off?
0:49:10 > 0:49:14I've got the initial adrenaline running already,
0:49:14 > 0:49:19but I think the biggest buzz I'm going to get is asking the biggest question of my life,
0:49:19 > 0:49:22and hoping I get the right answer.
0:49:30 > 0:49:34A few butterflies kicking, but I think it's to do with the question
0:49:34 > 0:49:36not the actual stunt itself.
0:49:36 > 0:49:42I didn't get much sleep at all, probably about an hour overall.
0:49:42 > 0:49:43Shattered.
0:49:43 > 0:49:47We're all good to go, Alex and Katie are ready and prepped.
0:49:47 > 0:49:50I think everything is going to be ready to rock.
0:49:50 > 0:49:54- Couldn't do it without you, mate. - Good luck.- Good to go.
0:49:54 > 0:49:57I'll see you on the other side. Take it easy.
0:49:57 > 0:50:00Let's hope he hasn't set himself up for a fall.
0:50:00 > 0:50:02With his friends and family in place,
0:50:02 > 0:50:06Jay must now race against the clock to climb 100 feet
0:50:06 > 0:50:09before Hannah arrives and all in his dickie bow.
0:50:09 > 0:50:11She better say yes.
0:50:16 > 0:50:19Yeah, you can tell he's nervous.
0:50:19 > 0:50:21I think he's crazy.
0:50:39 > 0:50:44- That's it. - Trying to find a foothold.
0:51:00 > 0:51:04Whose idea was this about putting a bloody suit on?
0:51:04 > 0:51:07..on the stairs. That's what you normally do.
0:51:07 > 0:51:09Sister Katie has her own mission -
0:51:09 > 0:51:12getting an unsuspecting Hannah into place.
0:51:12 > 0:51:14I think it's down there.
0:51:25 > 0:51:28Right.
0:51:31 > 0:51:34Slowly let yourself out.
0:51:37 > 0:51:39You just take care.
0:51:42 > 0:51:44"Look up."
0:51:44 > 0:51:46Go, go, go.
0:51:46 > 0:51:48Jay, fantastic. Go for it, man!
0:51:48 > 0:51:51Go for it!
0:51:51 > 0:51:55Oh my... Oh, my God! What's going on?
0:51:59 > 0:52:06What's going on? Oh, my God. Oh, my God! I don't know what's going on!
0:52:06 > 0:52:07Oh, my God!
0:52:17 > 0:52:19- Oh, my God!- Hello!
0:52:22 > 0:52:23I knew it!
0:52:23 > 0:52:26SHE SOBS
0:52:27 > 0:52:31I was just wondering...if you'd do me the proud honour...
0:52:31 > 0:52:35to marry me?
0:52:35 > 0:52:38- Of course I will, you fool! - CHEERING
0:52:38 > 0:52:41# I can be your hero baby.... #
0:52:41 > 0:52:44Oh, my God!
0:52:44 > 0:52:48- I can't believe you just abseiled! Your face.- I'm covered in filth.
0:52:48 > 0:52:52- Well done, you.- Thank you. - Oh, my God!
0:52:52 > 0:52:56- It was amazing. Was that a yes then? - Yes.- It's a yes!
0:52:58 > 0:53:00How long have you all known?
0:53:00 > 0:53:03It's beautiful. Congratulations.
0:53:03 > 0:53:05I can't believe my family kept it a secret.
0:53:05 > 0:53:09Katie, thank you so much for everything.
0:53:09 > 0:53:12- You owe me big time.- I owe you. - I don't like surprises.
0:53:12 > 0:53:17I like this surprise. Still in total shock.
0:53:17 > 0:53:20It's pretty amazing. I don't know how many people can say
0:53:20 > 0:53:25that they got engaged at this station with their partner abseiling down.
0:53:25 > 0:53:28It's different, isn't it? Something to tell the grandkids.
0:53:28 > 0:53:31Mission accomplished,
0:53:31 > 0:53:34and all because the lady loves our Jay.
0:53:34 > 0:53:38I'm getting all upset now.
0:53:38 > 0:53:42# ..I can be your hero. #
0:53:46 > 0:53:51Seven extravagant proposals and now seven brides-to-be.
0:53:51 > 0:53:53I'm getting married!
0:53:53 > 0:53:55What's more, these romantic gestures
0:53:55 > 0:53:59will have left unforgettable memories which will be cherished
0:53:59 > 0:54:02by all our girls...and Stuart.
0:54:02 > 0:54:06# Baby you're a firework... #
0:54:06 > 0:54:10Everyone was like, "You must have known," and I literally had no idea.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13I just must be stupid because I really didn't.
0:54:13 > 0:54:17I don't think you can get more romantic than what he did for me.
0:54:17 > 0:54:21It was the perfect way that I'd want it without even knowing.
0:54:21 > 0:54:25Now he's just got a bigger thing to live up to for the wedding.
0:54:25 > 0:54:26Oh, my God!
0:54:26 > 0:54:29It wasn't till he took his head off that I knew it was him.
0:54:29 > 0:54:33I said, "It's you!" That was when I knew something must have been happening.
0:54:33 > 0:54:37Such a shock. It made me feel incredibly special,
0:54:37 > 0:54:40as the centre of attention, and actually I quite liked it.
0:54:40 > 0:54:44It's raised the bar high for the rest of my friends anyway!
0:54:44 > 0:54:48When he got down on one knee, I felt like my heart was going to jump
0:54:48 > 0:54:51out of my chest. I thought, "This is actually happening!"
0:54:51 > 0:54:54He definitely gets 10 out of 10. Bless him.
0:54:54 > 0:54:57Because I was concentrating so hard, I completely missed the sign
0:54:57 > 0:55:02and then the instructor made me look at the sign and I couldn't get off the horse quick enough.
0:55:02 > 0:55:04Oh, my God!
0:55:04 > 0:55:07The fact that he did do it without me being suspicious whatsoever
0:55:07 > 0:55:10has made me really proud of him. I love him.
0:55:10 > 0:55:14When I saw the diver, I was speechless to be honest.
0:55:14 > 0:55:17It was quite emotional, I had a tear in my eye
0:55:17 > 0:55:22and then managed to talk and say yes, and now I get to spend the rest of my life with her. Yeah!
0:55:22 > 0:55:23- Oh my God!- Hello.
0:55:23 > 0:55:26It was so surreal, like everything slowed down.
0:55:26 > 0:55:30It was the weirdest thing ever. He likes to think he's a bit of a hero,
0:55:30 > 0:55:32so it was the perfect stunt for Jay.
0:55:32 > 0:55:37I would give the proposal a nine and a half out of ten because -
0:55:37 > 0:55:39this makes me sound like such a cow -
0:55:39 > 0:55:42a choir of some sort would have made it perfect.
0:55:42 > 0:55:46Well, let's hope he gets it right on the wedding day.
0:55:48 > 0:55:53# Nobody does it better
0:55:55 > 0:56:01# Makes me feel sad for the rest
0:56:02 > 0:56:10# Nobody does it half as good as you
0:56:10 > 0:56:13# Baby you're the best... #
