Malia Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parents

The freedom of your first-ever holiday with your mates...

ALL CHANT: Ooh, ah, Malia!

..where everyone's up for it...

This programme contains strong language.

..and anything goes.

Cheap booze...

And I'm REALLY drunk!

HE VOMITS Leave me alone.

..dirty dancing...

..and that all-important independence...

HE MOANS

..away from Mum and Dad.

I hope my mum does never watch this.

Sorry, Dad!

But what the teenagers don't know is that the parents are coming too.

That's disgusting!

THEY GASP

Secretly watching...

Can we have just five minutes?

He's an absolute bloody disgrace, he is.

..sneakily spying...

There's Dan!

..and outrageously hiding...

Tricky, tricky...

..all to see if their kids can stand on their own two feet.

It's the one thing that we said we didn't want to see.

I'm starting to wonder if I even know Ashley.

I'm shocked.

-SHE SOBS

-He's dead.

THEY SCREAM

Will the parents like what they see...

You've turned from a girl to a woman.

..as the teenagers get the shock of their lives?

What?!

-Oh!

-Oh, my God.

-Why are you on my holiday?

-HE LAUGHS

HE GROANS

Coming up...

it's sun, sex and serious drinking in Malia...

ALL CHANT: Ooh, ah, Malia, say, oh, ah, Malia!

Put the Pot Noodle stash down here...

..as fitness fanatic Dale leaves his trusting single mum behind...

THEY CHEER

I don't want to see him absolutely steaming.

I can't see it myself. I can't see him doing it.

..for an irresponsible week in the sun.

I'm the lightweight...

..and who's still going?

Leave me alone!

And 18-year-old Tom escapes life with his mollycoddling parents...

I pick his clothes up off the floor,

I'll hang his clothes up, I'll do his washing, I do his ironing...

..for an explosive week with his oldest...

and newest friends.

An argument this big has happened on the first night.

It isn't your fault though.

But will the parents like what they see...

..when they secretly watch their kids...

He's dead.

..and give Dale and Tom the shock of their lives.

Why are you on my holiday?! HE LAUGHS

Fashion-conscious 18-year-old Tom

is looking forward to a week away on his first ever lads' holiday,

providing a break from his traditional home life.

'I want to go on holiday for the independence,'

I don't want to be sober at all, not even in me sleep.

I want to wake up drunk!

He lives near Stoke in the Cheshire countryside

with mum and dad, Pam and Alan.

The thing that worries me the most probably about Tom going away

is maybe just having too much to drink.

The sleeping around, I would think that would upset me the most.

On this holiday, my aim is to try and get a girl and that,

I'd be disappointed if I didn't.

As an escape from his traditional home life and country living,

Tom's got a taste for tattoos and piercings.

The only thing around here is cows and old people and like,

the only way I can express myself is being like this.

Like, I feel like I'm different.

I don't think Tom confides everything in us...

My parents probably don't know I had my cock pierced.

In a month, Tom will leave his pampering parents

and head to university.

I think my mum probably does mollycoddle me a bit.

My mum's, like, more the nurturing side

and my dad's more like the laidback side.

Tom is the baby of the family.

I pick his clothes up off the floor,

I'll hang his clothes up, I'll do his washing, I do his ironing...

Tom!

Why have you thrown all these clothes in the kitchen again like this?

I think, you know, we probably tend to do a lot for Tom,

maybe more than we should.

Just pick your feet up, mate, will you?

I am ready to, like, leave the nest and then go out onto uni,

cos this holiday is going to be the perfect example,

so I can prove to them that I CAN survive on my own.

I don't suppose there's any chance of you having a go at this?

No. Too complicated.

MUSIC: "This Is The Life" by Two Door Cinema Club

Going with Tom are two of his mates...

Three a night, I reckon.

..best friend, self-proclaimed ladies' man Lee...

I'm going to have a big massive orgy,

whether it's with men or women.

..and newest friend, 24-year-old hairdresser, Blake.

Tom's known Lee for years, but Blake for only a few months.

Got a tattoo that says, "Kiss Me!" on my lip,

so I can go up to a girl and say, "What does this say?"

-MUM:

-'We've known Lee for seven or eight years.'

I only know a little bit about Blake.

I know he's Tom's friend, through a friend.

There's something special about these pair.

They've got this little bond.

Lee and Blake have met on a few occasions.

I think there'll be quite a contrast there, because Lee's quiet

and Blake is certainly at the other end of the scale.

I think we should all shag a fat bird, that'll be our mission.

The combination of the three should be quite...

It should be quite interesting, really, with Tom,

so, like I say, he's sitting somewhere in the middle of the two.

I don't know how we're all going to react to each other,

cos they're all my friends and then they've all come together.

MUSIC: "Do You Want It All?" by Two Door Cinema Club

So, what do Pam and Alan hope they and Tom

will get out of this holiday?

What I'm hoping to learn from the holiday for Tom is that...

to see how he does cope without being at home.

I hope he becomes more responsible with money.

Shit at budgeting. I'd happily spend the budget on anything.

Good shot!

Also going to Malia, 19-year-old Dale.

He's an apprentice personal trainer and all-round fitness fanatic,

but his biggest love is boxing.

Boxing has taught me kind of discipline and respect.

I look after myself, I don't abuse my body. Like, I...

I'll have the occasional drink...

MUSIC: "The Way You Kiss Me" by Example

The body-conscious teen lives in Manchester with his mum, Lisa

and seven-year-old sister, Abbie.

I see Dale as a fairly outgoing, funny type of person...

As all his school reports say, the class clown.

With no father on the scene for Abbie or Dale,

it means he's the man of the house,

and the main man in mum Lisa's life.

If my mum's going out on a date, I want to know who he is,

where he's from, you know. I want to know a bit more about him.

It's a case of, "Where you going, what time will you be back?"

Oh! I forgot to put...

Oh, no.

Mum thinks they're so close, and that they're more like mates.

For 12 years it was just me and Dale.

He don't keep anything from me, I don't keep anything from him.

My relationship with my mum is, like...

..I can get away with loads with her.

Condoms...

Loads of varieties, flavours. You name it, we've got all sorts.

I know 100% what he's like as a person.

98%.

A break from his all-female family and the boxing,

Dale's looking forward to his week away.

Fighting season starts soon.

Like, I'll go crazy.

He doesn't have to be drunk out of his face and what have you,

cos I don't think he drinks a lot anyway.

I'm going to drink...excessive.

Do you know, I'm going to drink a lot.

MUSIC: "Young Blood" by The Naked And Famous

Joining Dale on holiday will be three of his closest mates.

Together, we are the Wolf Pack!

HE HOWLS

THEY LAUGH

I just sit back and tag along.

Just...have a cup of tea and that.

There's chilled-out Jarred...

I say stuff that I know, and these don't believe me

cos it's like, I don't know,

and then they basically call me a bullshiter.

..elaborate story-teller Mike...

I'll get up and I'll be there, waiting with a coffee and a paper!

..and early riser, grandad of the group, James.

Before the Wolf Pack jet off,

Dale gets strict instructions from Mum.

If anyone's drunk, make sure that you all walk him home.

Don't go down on that beach, in the sea, when you're drunk.

-All right.

-Lethal.

Mopeds...

-Yeah?

-Yeah, definitely not.

HE LAUGHS I know!

Time for Dale to say goodbye.

Here we go. Have you got your knickers?

Cos you'll be coming home with some!

-Look after yourself.

-Yeah, same to you.

-THEY CHEER

-See you later!

Sooner rather than later!

OK, come on, give us a cuddle. OK, bye.

In Cheshire, Tom and his mates are heading off.

-See you.

-Take care, have a good time.

-Be good!

Cos you never know who's watching you.

MUSIC: "Corfu" by Eric Gemsa

The teenagers are heading to Crete.

With its stunning scenery and picturesque beaches,

it's Greece's biggest island.

MUSIC: "Good Feeling" by Flo Rida

It's also home to one of Europe's biggest party towns, Malia.

With an abundance of bars and clubs,

hordes of youngsters descend on its infamous strip weekly,

to drink, dance, pull and party until dawn...

ALL CHANT: Ooh, ah, Malia, say, ooh, ah, Malia!

THEY CHEER

..and joining in on the Malia madness are Manchester's Wolf Pack.

THEY CHEER

Oh, can you feel that heat?!

-Can't wait to finger some girls!

-THEY LAUGH

Me and Jarred are going to stay there,

and then, in here, is the guest room.

-The love room.

-The love room for Jarred.

Directly above them, James and Mike are bunking up together.

MUSIC: "You're Gonna Love This" by 3OH!3

It's time for the boys to hit the pool, and the pints.

But Dale has decided to pace himself.

Dale basically said, "Why wait? I can only have one or two."

You'll see tonight. When I've got to put you in bed.

I've had a cider, but I'm just slowly getting into it, you know.

I'm just enjoying myself, no need to rush.

But fitness fanatic Dale's quite happy to help others drink.

One... Done, done!

Two, done. Two more, half way there.

Go on, go on. Go on, go on.

-Oh!

-Fucking hell, mate.

Come on, you said you could. Come on, don't stop.

-I'll do it in a minute.

-Right, come on then.

Yeah! HE APPLAUDS

-Piece of piss!

-DALE LAUGHS

We're in Malia, bitch!

Ooh, ah, Malia! I said, ooh, ah, Malia!

An hour later, Tom, Blake and Lee arrive...

and away from his parents, Tom's raring to go.

Get a bottle of vodka, then we'll jump in the pool.

Throw it up in the air and then catch it in the pool.

-Party trick.

-Malia, bitch!

HE GASPS

A bit cold in here, ain't it?

Oh! I found the shower.

Got a revolving light...

What's in these cupboards?

Oh, my God! Look at this. A plate.

-Frisbee.

-HE GIGGLES

All three are sharing together.

Reel the girls in...

I reckon it'll do the job, yeah.

Free from the constraints of home,

the first thing the boys do is get quad bikes...

THEY WHOOP

..and set off to explore ...

the local off-licence.

Hello, guys. Special offer today.

-Vodka?

-Vodka, vodka, special offer!

Blake's left his wallet at the hotel,

so Tom pays 50 euros for his share of the quads and shopping.

-12 euros for the two.

-You business man, I like the way you think.

You never know sometimes. Bravo, bravo, my lads!

MUSIC: "Chasing The Sun" by The Wanted

Midnight, and the Malia strip is just getting going.

At the Cheshire boys' hotel, they down their pre-drinks...

I can't wait to go out now.

..then hit the bars.

Away from his life in the country, Tom's revelling in it.

Suck, suck, fucking suck!

Cheers!

Feeling good. I feel like Malia now.

But things soon turn sour

when Tom and Lee want to play pool, and Blake doesn't.

I can't play pool for shit.

I'm gonna get drunk.

He was getting in my face about playing pool. He said I couldn't.

'I don't know where Blake's gone.

'He's walked off somewhere without us.'

Fuck you, fuck you!

As the saying goes, "Two's company, but three's a crowd".

At the Manchester boys' hotel, drinking games...

Again! Again!

..and Dale's now getting involved.

I feel a bit sick, so...

It's my time to slow down or get all these pissed.

But as they hit the strip,

Dale seems to have forgotten his own limits.

Three, two, one, go!

Shots, shots!

Go!

First fish bowl went down nicely.

Feel a bit sick though, to be honest with you.

Jarred, again, five euros!

Dale's a bit steaming.

He's had two fish bowls, so... you know what I mean?

He's on his arse.

I'm the lightweight...

..and who's still going?

But after a few hours of excess,

all that booze starts to take its toll.

'I need to go home.'

I feel sick.

I need to have a water and I'll be all right.

Oh!

As Dale thinks about calling it a night,

Tom and Lee have been reunited with Blake

and the tiff over the pool game seems forgotten.

Over the next couple of hours, the Cheshire boys drink,

and inhale vaporised alcohol shots.

Mixed with oxygen, it goes straight into the bloodstream,

which could make them drunk dangerously quickly.

We're out of our faces!

Then, away from the cameras, the second argument of the night,

resulting in Blake threatening to fly home,

before storming back to his hotel.

I'm not sure what's up with Blake. He's been agitated by something.

He's just speaking to me like I'm a fucking piece of shit.

-He's making it hard, ain't he?

-Yeah.

-You OK?

-Yeah.

And like most drunken rows, nobody knows how it started.

It just gets to me how it's our first night out here...

and...an argument this big has happened on the first night out.

It isn't your fault though.

Come on.

When Blake does appear from his hotel room,

he refuses to talk to anyone.

Blake, just stop for a second. Just stop.

You can't drive that drunk. You can't be riding it drunk...

Intoxicated and with no helmet on, he attempts to drive off,

but is stopped by one of our team before he gets onto the main road.

I'm looking out for you, all right, mate?

There you go.

As he heads back to his hotel room for the night,

it's no longer the three musketeers, as the two old friends carry on.

We're willing to keep with this party...

Popped open the champagne, straight over her tits, licking it off...

Winner.

It was definitely worth coming back out, yeah.

We've forgot everything that happened and we've had a really good night.

But Tom's first day on his first holiday away from his parents

has come at a cost.

I've spent 160, easily, on the quads.

Only cos I paid for Blake, though.

And, obviously, he's not paid me back, so I've ended spending loads,

but I've only got half my budget left now.

The Manchester boys have also called it a night.

But they're a man down.

Jarred, where's Dale?

I don't know where Dale is.

Lost him.

I hope he's at home.

Dale may be able to handle three rounds in a boxing ring,

but not a night on the strip.

Hey, hey, Dale's home! Hey, hey, Dale's home!

He's been floored by his intake of alcohol.

Leave me alone!

After getting Dale and Jarred into bed,

grandad of the group James locks up.

The next day, and the teenagers' parents have arrived.

First in, Tom's mum and dad...

-Hi.

-Hiya.

-Hi.

..followed by Dale's mum, Lisa, and her sister, Paula.

Are you excited?

Just a little bit, yeah.

Just a little bit.

Tom's very charming.

Never got in trouble, er...

He's quite sensible and he doesn't drink too much.

That could be famous last words, couldn't it?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-Dale's the lightweight.

-Yeah.

He knows his limits, though. He knows two pints...

-Two pints and then that's it.

-Oh, yeah. Tom does, yeah.

-Yeah.

All three of the Cheshire boys are at their hotel.

Unaware his parents are on the island,

Tom's counting the cost of his first night in Malia.

I spent about 160 euros.

I didn't reckon I was going to get that money back.

In Dale's room, a surprise delivery from his mate, Jarred.

Jarred is definitely responsible for being sick in the sink.

All I remember is trying to plunge it.

I don't know what I was trying to plunge it with.

I think it was my hands.

It was my hands.

Away from his mum's watchful eye,

Dale's also paying the price for last night.

HE BURPS

That was a burp. I was just making sure I wasn't going to be sick.

I don't usually drink, so I've learnt my lesson.

Drinking is not clever.

It's not big. It's not hard.

Erm...

and I'm going to slow down tonight.

Not long after touching down,

the parents are about to see what their sons got up to last night.

A bit scared, really, about what I'm going to see.

I don't really want to see Dale like, erm...mega, mega drunk,

you know, like being sick.

'I feel a bit apprehensive, naturally.'

The things I'm hoping to see on Tom's first night are just...

possibly drinking and partying, but not too much, hopefully.

First up, Tom.

-What about it?

-Cos you're wasting your money.

THEY SIGH Oh, no!

All right, waste your money, then.

Oh, come here.

Aww, my little boy.

He's had a row already.

It's really difficult to watch.

Yeah, er, I think he's just had too much to drink.

Oh, definitely!

Yeah. I mean, they've all clearly had a drink, you know.

You could see that, can't you?

It's quite sad, isn't it? Come all this way...

They're probably a little bit homesick as well, really.

-Yeah.

-Cos they're only...

Well, not "only young," but they are in my eyes.

HE LAUGHS Still my baby.

Just a minute.

I'll just watch this bit, Mum.

THEY LAUGH

I can't believe he's still standing!

Oh I've spent...

..160, easily.

Only cos I paid for Blake, though.

He's spent nearly half his money!

Yeah.

He's running on a pretty tight budget for the rest of the week now.

I've not seen that game before.

I know! Drinking beer off somebody's chest?

-Dad'll be out next year with them, eh?

-Yeah.

I found that track quite traumatic, really,

cos it was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster, wasn't it?

It had a bit of, erm...

a controversial start, you know, with the falling out.

To see Lee...quite upset, that was hard to watch.

What surprised me about Tom was the drinking, I think, in excess.

It's something we didn't think he did.

Lisa thinks her fitness fanatic son doesn't drink much either.

Three, two, one, go!

See how he's instigating it?

-He is the instigator though, isn't he?

-Yeah.

SHE LAUGHS

-The only thing I worry about is binge drinking.

-Hmm.

Cos that was an awful lot of beer.

-Well, I thought he looked all right there, Lisa.

-Oh, yeah.

-It's nothing really, that.

-He's still standing.

-He's still standing, he's done well.

-Still making sense.

Oh, my God! He usually has two pints of cider and that's it, he's in bed.

-That's what he tells YOU.

-Yeah.

-Well, now we know different, don't we?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Jarred, where's Dale?

-I don't know where Dale is.

-Have you lost him?

-We've lost him.

-They've left Dale.

-Oh!

That's one of my main rules.

-Where...?

-THEY GROAN AND LAUGH

Leave me alone!

All I can say is, it serves you right, Dale.

He won't drink that much again.

I do always say, don't let anyone wander off on their own.

At least they didn't have any falling out, you know?

And at least he didn't drink beer out of somebody's...bosoms, did he?

THEY LAUGH

-Yeah.

-There's time yet, Pam...

-You've been spared that one!

Pam, there's time. Don't worry. There's time, believe me.

I'm a bit shocked, really, at how much Dale did knock back,

but no doubt I'll be having words when we do meet up.

MUSIC: "Call My Name" by Cheryl Cole

The strip is now in full party mode,

and both sets of boys are back out and back on the booze.

With mum Lisa concerned about binge drinking,

and Tom's parents about the arguments,

they're heading to the Malia strip to get a sneaky peek at their sons.

It would be nice to see them. It would be nice.

Yeah, as long as it's not another row.

Yeah, well, hopefully it won't be.

I don't want to see any more breasts out, really.

Yeah, well, you can speak for yourself...

The bus will soon be on the strip.

If the parents get spotted by any of the teenagers, then it's game over.

It's definitely a James Bond-style mission.

You can hear it!

Oh, yes, it's starting.

Oh, look, they're all...

They're only babies, some of these.

Feeling old!

THEY SCREAM LOUDLY

KNOCKING ON WINDOW

Then the parents' bus gets rushed by revellers.

Oh, my God!

But fortunately, it's not their sons.

Yeah, there. Yeah!

With girls, so no excuse.

That's really good.

Did you like it, Lisa?

Yeah, I did. He's got loads of girls there,

seeing them all sniffing round him...

THEY LAUGH

Now, it's Tom's turn.

-Oh, they're there.

-Oh, they're there.

-You see them?

-Oh, God, yeah.

-You see them?

-Yeah.

-How weird's that?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-Can't we just get out?

-Yeah.

Oh, they look like they're really enjoying themselves.

-At least they look like they're all friends.

-Yeah.

-That's the main thing.

-Yeah.

But overnight, an argument between Lee and Blake

has had severe repercussions.

Those three knuckles are really swollen,

and I literally can't put my fingers straight.

Me and Blake were just full-on screaming in each other's faces,

and, erm, Blake was saying that I'm immature

and that he's lost all his respect for me

in the past two days we've been on this holiday.

He thinks I'm a knob. And I just screamed in his face,

"Well, you can fuck off, then, if that's your opinion of me."

And then I walked into the room and punched the wall

to stop me from hitting Blake.

We was talking about certain stuff...

and then Tom just stormed off in a mood, and I said,

"Look, if you can't handle the truth, don't fucking listen."

And they walked off, and then, I don't know,

I woke up this morning and Lee's got smashed knuckles.

He says he's punched a wall.

With Blake having made new friends with other hotel guests,

Tom takes Lee to the Malia Medical Centre to get checked out.

Blake stayed at the pool,

and he said I'm pathetic for going to the medical centre about it.

He's pathetic for making you do it.

So, not friends then!

Dale and the Wolf Pack are hiring quads,

but if his mum didn't want him on a moped,

the chances are this falls into the same category.

MUSIC: "What You Know" by Two Door Cinema Club

Lisa's set of rules is the last thing on Dale's mind.

Stopping at the beach, the boys' attention turns to sex,

or, in Wolf Pack speak, "sausaging."

Not sealed the deal YET.

Don't worry, there's time,

there will be sausaging going on, sooner or later.

We've got a bit of freedom out here, all of us. Like...

If we take girls back home, you don't have to ask your mum or whatever,

so we have got a little bit of freedom.

As man of the house at home, Dale has strong views on women.

I've got respect for women.

When it comes to girls, they deserve to get respect off you.

I like to think of myself as more of a gentleman.

Wine and dine, you know.

I would rather, like, go on a date and, like, chat to them

than just go in and start tonguing each other, you know.

It's just the way I've been brought up.

After an hour's wait, Lee and Tom are out.

I've had to have a cast put on for three weeks,

because I've fractured two of my fingers.

-And we've got the X-ray...

-Even got the X-ray to prove it.

That's my fucked-up hand.

MUSIC: "Sunshine" by David Guetta

Whilst Blake has some time to himself,

Tom and Lee look for some fun,

and find the perfect activity for people on a budget,

a free foam party.

Basically, we're going to head over there to the foam party.

Who knows where Blake is, who cares. Yeah.

-Ooh, ah...

-Foam party!

Blake may not have made it, but two others have...

Tom's mum and dad.

I know it's something that Tom wanted to do.

This foam party, it was on his list.

I've never been to a foam party before,

so I can't imagine what'll happen.

Pam and Alan know Tom is low on cash,

so the last thing they want to see him doing is spending it on booze.

Yeah, it looks like brilliant fun, doesn't it?

Covered in foam, Lee's bandaged hand is hard to spot,

or maybe Pam and Alan are having too much fun?

Absolutely brilliant.

-Yeah, really good.

-Yeah, really good, yeah.

There's ladies in their bikini in there, dancing in the foam.

I'm sure Tom will be lapping it up, yeah.

I think that will be right up his street, yeah.

I know it would have been for me, at Tom's age.

-It still is, ain't it?

-It still is.

Satisfied Tom's having fun without spending a fortune on alcohol,

his parents sneak away.

Hopefully he's learnt that you don't need a drink to enjoy yourself,

cos it looked like he was enjoying himself.

Yeah, he's capable of doing that, yeah.

Tom and Lee meet up with Blake

because they've got to return their quads to the hire company.

Supposed to bring the bike yesterday.

But they're a day late, and hit with a fine,

which doesn't help their budget.

How much do we owe you, then?

40 per bike.

I've already paid for the quad bikes. That's twice I've paid for them.

There's 80.

Tom steps in and pays...again.

He's not given that 80 euros he owes you back yet,

then that gives you and me 80 euros each for the rest of the holiday.

-I know, yeah.

-Either way, we're fucked.

Yeah, either way we've not won here, have we?

I think we'll have to bankroll Blake again,

but it's getting a bit ridiculous, cos he already owes me 80 euros.

Time for a broke Tom to confront Blake about being out of pocket.

-You don't owe me nothing?!

-I owe you 40 euros.

I paid for your quad bikes, your massage...

You've already had that money.

-Have you seen him give it to me?

-Yeah, when we got back to the room.

Why do you think I'm out of money? You've already had the money.

Blake insists he's already given Tom the money,

leaving the argument unresolved.

At the Manchester boys' hotel,

the night has started with a painful tradition.

I need an ambulance.

Balls are in my stomach, I feel sick.

James has just smacked me on the balls.

Oh, it's that pain!

Ten minutes later, all is forgotten...

..although maybe not for Dale.

-HE GROANS

-Oh, man!

Man, it's getting worse, it gets worse.

Bosh! Willy slap there, but karma...

what goes round comes around.

And that's how these boys settle a disagreement.

I can't breathe!

MUSIC: "Party All Night" by Sean Kingston

Despite some dented pride and bruised bits,

Dale and James are up and about.

Yeah!

GIRL CHEERS

They're not the only ladies with their eyes on Dale.

Two more females will have their sights fixed on him tonight.

Dale's got no idea whatsoever that his mum and his auntie

are, like, literally on top of him.

I think that's, you know, the best bit of it, yeah.

We've got our camouflage on as well.

-Definitely.

-We're ready.

Mum wants to see if Dale's back on the booze,

so she'll be spying from the top floor of a bar.

He might let his self go a little bit again tonight.

He's probably forgot about the hangover and what it felt like.

-Can you see him?

-Oh, I can see him!

He's on shots, I think. I've just seen his head fly back.

So, all that went out the window.

Oh! Drinking!

Lisa's suspicions about Dale drinking were right,

and she's disappointed.

-Why does he need to get drunk?

-I don't know.

I told you he'd be on a binge tonight.

Mum always knows. I know. I can read me son like a book.

I want to go and get some fish bowls.

Let's go and get some fish bowls.

The nearest bar to serve fish bowls is the one Lisa and Paula are in.

The only way out would mean walking right past Dale. They're trapped.

We're just sitting tight now.

Just see how long he's going to be sat in here for.

Three, two, one, the first one to stop is a pussy!

Finally, the boys decide to move on.

-Yes, we're going!

-We're going, after an hour.

Dale's drinking has made Lisa see a different side to her son.

He was on the shots straight away,

and then he came underneath us and had what? Two fish bowls?

-Well...

-Or three fish bowls. I'll be having words, like.

So, Dale... I'm going to get you!

As Dale and the Wolf Pack carry on tearing up the strip together,

the Cheshire boys, who are broke,

are having a very different kind of night.

Lee's gone to sleep and I just thought I'd have a chill to myself,

just chill by the pool.

Me and Lee stayed in tonight

because we've had to watch out a bit of the money.

I feel if I go to the strip,

I'm going to spend money that I don't need to spend.

Blake's gone off to celebrate these girls' last night.

Blake seems to be enjoying the company of his new friends.

Me having a night away from Tom and Lee, it's different,

because it's like... It's all new, and I just thought, "Fuck it."

We're in Malia for six days, so why would I want to stay in?

I can stay in when I get home.

I think we're becoming three individuals

rather than coming as a group.

Back home, Tom could ask his parents for cash,

but out here, he wants to stand on his own two feet.

Calling home is definitely not an option.

I've realised that my parents DO do a lot for me.

It's something that you probably take for granted.

You're out here, you have to budget your own money...

I want them to be proud of me, that I can budget my money.

THEY CHANT

It's not even a full moon,

but on the strip, the Wolf Pack are on the prowl.

THEY SCREAM AND HOWL

MUSIC: "Feel The Love" by Rudimental feat. John Newman

Then Jarred decides to get a Henna tattoo,

and Dale does the honours.

That's the worst cock ever.

Just put a few dots on it!

He's drawn genitals on Jarred's genitals.

I would never tattoo anyone's penis apart from Jarred's.

I'm going to keep it for the rest of my life.

MUSIC: "We Found Love" by Rihanna feat. Calvin Harris

5am, and the strip's winding down,

but the Wolf Pack's night isn't over yet.

The boys have made friends with a group of girls.

INDISTINCT CHATTER

If they're lucky, if they're actually very lucky,

they might get a bit of sausage.

By midday, all of the Manchester boys are back at their hotel.

We all sausaged, all of us.

I'm only joking. We didn't.

It was just chilled. We played Monopoly for a bit.

At the Cheshire boys' hotel, Tom didn't go out last night,

but he's suffering.

Best mate Lee is concerned.

-How many times have you been sick today?

-Five.

Five?

Basically, I've been coughing up blood.

What do you want to do about it?

Do you want to get it checked out or...? Let's get it checked out.

When he looks for his insurance documents,

Tom comes across a reminder of home.

I found a little note from my parents

and stuck it to the side of my bed.

I cried a little bit, yeah.

As Blake stays by the pool with his new-found friends,

Tom and Lee head to the hospital.

Unaware of their son's illness,

Tom's parents are about to watch footage from last night.

But first, it's Dale's mum and auntie.

I don't really want to see him getting drunk all the time.

I want to see Dale being himself and, you know, enjoying himself.

But Dale has ignored one of Lisa's strict rules.

Oh, here they go!

He's dead.

Look at it! He's driving sensible.

He's got his hat on.

He must know I'm going to see it!

He's done exactly what I said don't do.

-I can't believe he's done it.

-Yeah.

I can't believe he's actually... I can't.

I know exactly what he'll say though,

-cos I did say don't get mopeds.

-Yeah.

-He'll say, "I've not got a moped, I've got a quad."

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-You ready?

-I can't actually... I can't... Yeah.

Cos I can't believe that he's done that.

Since the age of about three, Dale's always wanted a moped.

I went out and bought him a little electronic Harley Davidson

and I said that's the only motorbike that he'll ever, ever have.

They're just taking us to some apartments...

-GIRL:

-We're going to get on the red fucking vodka, man!

Lisa, what do you think's going on now, back in that room?

-Well, obviously, some girl's getting sausaged.

-Right.

One girl, or...?

-Oh, there was about four there, weren't there?

-Yeah.

-So...we'll call it a barbecue, eh?

-THEY LAUGH

-I think it's a normal thing for teenage lads and that to do.

-Yeah.

They're all single lads, aren't they?

I think it's good he's gone back with his friends.

I think that's always important, though...

-Oh, staying together.

-Yeah.

I'm more concerned about him on that quad bike

than him going out sausaging.

Next up, Pam and Alan,

who don't want to see arguments between Tom and his friends.

I've had to go for an X-ray at the medical centre...

Oh, no, you're joking!

..punching a wall last night, cos Blake pissed me off.

Oh, no!

I feel a bit gobsmacked myself.

I just don't think it's right

-that somebody could upset somebody so much...

-Yeah.

..that they feel like punching a wall.

It's not like Lee to do something like that,

-it's completely out of character.

-Hm, it makes you not want to...

-..watch any more.

-Scared of what else you'll see.

Yeah, surely it can't be any worse.

Supposed to bring the bike yesterday.

-Yesterday?

-Yeah.

-How much is it?

-Well, 40 euros per bike.

-Oh!

-Oh, no!

It's getting worse.

-You don't owe me nothing?!

-I owe you 40 euros.

-I pay for your quad bike and your...

-You've already had that money.

I believe you, Tom, mate.

I'm struggling with this today.

-It is actually a lesson though, isn't it, really?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Once you do come on holiday with people,

-I think you realise, don't you?

-Yeah.

And you get to see a different side.

Lee's gone to sleep,

Blake's gone off with some girls to celebrate their last night

and I just thought I'd have a chill to myself.

Clubbing was definitely not an option.

I want them to be proud of me, that I can budget my money.

Yeah, it's, er...

Yeah, you all right?

Yeah, like, it's reality check time, isn't it?

And did you see how...

You should be proud, though, that he don't want to phone home,

that he's trying to budget and that.

-Yeah, that's right. He's fine, I mean, er...

-I know, but just...

-what a lesson.

-I honestly think maybe a night just chilling...

-Yeah.

-You know...

It does hit you. It's brought a lump to my throat...

Just seeing him on his own.

It's awful, isn't it, when you see your kids like that?

-Yeah, that's right. OK?

-Yeah.

Just need a tissue.

Tom's parents are realising

just how much he's growing up on this holiday.

Tom's off to university soon,

so I think there's a few lessons to be learnt here.

He's got to manage his money, and his friends, by the looks of it.

I think it is a steep learning curve for me, because at this point,

if it was happening at home, I suppose I would want to intervene.

This situation's going to happen throughout his life

and I'm not going to be there.

Across the island, accompanied by Lee, Tom's arrived at the hospital.

He's now having a blood test.

It's twice now that Blake's not come with us when something's happened,

and just Blake's attitude towards me and Tom

and how he's treating us like shit, its beginning to...

it's started to really piss me off now.

I just think he's too busy thinking about himself

and that he's not concerned about whatever happens to me and Tom.

On a drip to keep his fluids up,

Tom's under doctor's orders not to drink.

So, until his blood test results come back,

it's time for cold turkey.

I wish this drip was a big massive Jagerbomb.

THEY LAUGH Can you imagine that?

It wouldn't... It wouldn't be clear.

Vodka, then. Imagine if it was just one massive vodka drip.

Going mental, down the strip with this, waving it up and down.

I've nearly gone through it all!

-Yeah.

-But when I got that... Oh, my god!

The Manchester boys' hotel,

and they're learning lessons in an adult world.

It's your birthday, it's your birthday!

In order to get a free drink,

Dale's mate Mike told hotel owner Nikos that it was his birthday.

But it's backfired.

Go, go, go, go! Last one, last one, last one, Mike!

Go on, go on, yeah!

HE CHEERS AND LAUGHS

I don't think we should have told him it's my birthday when it's not.

Cos he keeps giving me whisk... He's giving whiskies.

And I can't handle whisky.

I have a surprise.

He's got a surprise for you, Mike!

Stay here. I'll be right back, yeah?

Nikos has pulled out all the stops.

For fuck's sake. A cake.

I've got a fucking cake!

Oh, my god!

Mike. Shit.

That's nice.

Make a wish.

Make a wish for your birthday.

CHEERING

He's going to hell, this kid.

Nikos is going to kill him!

I don't have a fucking clue what's gone on in the last five minutes.

What Mike doesn't know is that Nikos has looked at his passport,

knows it's not his birthday, and is teaching him a lesson.

-Whisky!

-No, no fucking more, Nikos!

-Tell him.

-30th of June,

and you're telling me you have your birthday in 28th of August?!

-WOMAN LAUGHS

-That's a double bluff, wasn't it?

That was the funniest thing...

-I've ever, probably ever seen.

-HE CHUCKLES

Never, ever, say it's your birthday in Greece. For fuck's sake!

I'd rather eat my own nails.

Tom has got his blood test results back.

Basically, the doctor said I had gastroenteritis

and he's advised, cos of that, not drinking for 48 hours

because that was what...that's what keeps on causing the vomiting.

Blake is at the hotel,

and he's about to find out how Tom's day has been.

I'm not worried about it, because I've got nothing to worry about.

I've been making my own friends and going out and enjoying myself.

-Hello.

-Hello.

I had to be on a drip for three hours.

-They gave me morphine as well.

-Yeah.

-Morphine?

-Hm.

So, you've been having your eyes rolled to the back of your head,

getting fucked out your face?

What Tom doesn't know

is his parents have been informed about his trip to the hospital.

Desperate to see him, they're spying on him from the next-door room.

He doesn't realise we're only feet away,

and that's just amazing, isn't it, really?

-I'll get my aftershave on.

-Are you not ready yet?

-No. I forgot.

-Blake's talking about going out, isn't he?

-Yeah.

He's just asked Lee about aftershave.

So, Lee's going out. What's Tom doing?

Are they going to leave Tom in?

-I'll see you later, then.

-See you later.

They're actually going out without him, aren't they?

Maybe he doesn't want to go out.

Lee and Blake have gone on a night out, but I don't trust myself.

Definitely feeling lonely tonight, yeah.

SHE SOBS

I think he would've preferred it if they'd have stayed in.

I mean, that's...

Yeah, that's Tom, I mean, he's...

you know, Tom isn't selfish.

Yeah, he'll be fine. Yeah.

I'm sure it would have been nice

had we been able to pop in and just had a word, you know.

Mum give him a hug...

I'm probably in a worse state than Tom is, really.

He's handling it really well.

MUSIC: "Riverside" by Sidney Samson

2am, and the strip is on fire again.

With Tom tucked up in bed, Blake and Lee are trying to have a good time,

despite their differences.

MUSIC: "Rude Boy" by Rihanna

I am not missing Tom. It feels like he wasn't here anyway.

I'm missing the shit out of Tom, if I'm honest,

because he's my best mate.

MUSIC: "Summer Of Love" by Cascada

Almost 3am, and the Manchester boys have split up.

Jarred and Mike have gone home,

and it looks like Dale and James

won't be going back to theirs at all.

Do you know where your hotel is? Is it far away?

Just going to go to the beach,

catch the rest of this sun before it goes down.

A bit of sausaging down there. I'm going to see what's going on.

So, I'll give you some feedback tomorrow.

Good night and God bless.

Er, has anyone had breakfast today?

-No.

-No?

11am the next morning, and Dale and James have just got back

from what sounds like a lively night at the beach.

I ripped my T-shirt...

THEY LAUGH

It works both ways, cos you can either wear it like this...

..or you can even wear it like that, keep the sun off your head.

It's quiet in the Cheshire boys' hotel room,

because they're all asleep.

And the parents are going to see what the teenagers got up to

for the final time. First up, Tom.

I found a little note from my parents,

and I opened it and then stuck it to the side of my bed,

so then when I'm lying down, I can read it.

Aw!

It made me a little bit emotional, yeah.

SHE SNIFFS

I suppose it did surprise me that he got a bit...

-He said he got a bit emotional when he read the note.

-Yeah.

-But I thought it might have got a...

-Hide it, put it in the bin,

-but he's actually taped it to his bed!

-Yeah.

I wasn't expecting him to react like that to the note, I think,

so, er, just hit the emotions, really,

to think he was upset when he read the note,

but it's just tugged on the heart strings a little bit.

They've had a really rough time. They've had more sad than...

I think they've definitely had more downs and worry

than they've had ups, I think, yeah.

You don't know what's coming, do you?

-Yeah, it's a mix of emotions.

-Yeah, it is. It's...

I don't know. I just...

I just don't know what will come up on that screen, I really don't.

Oh!

Got chatting to a few girls and they said, er,

"Do you want to come to the beach?"

Good night and God bless.

The beach at night, Lisa?

Yes. That is one...just one of the rules, all the time.

Don't go down on that beach, in the sea, when you're drunk.

-Right.

-Lethal.

Oh!

Dale's definitely in shit when I get hold of him.

-Now, every time he goes on holiday...

-Yeah.

-..you're going to be thinking...

-I know that he goes...

...beach, left on his own.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Oh, I can tell how quiet she is... He's going to... Yeah.

You can, can't you? It's upset you, that.

-It pisses me off.

-Yeah.

-Keep that anger for when you see him.

-See him, yeah.

They don't understand fear, though, I don't think, do you?

Yeah, I think at that age, they don't see danger, do they?

I think it's very much a bravado thing, you know,

and looking cool and, obviously, it's alcohol-fuelled.

I'm not bothered how many girls he cops off with on holiday,

you know as long as he's protected, I'm not bothered about the girl bit.

What's bothered me is that he's gone down to that beach in dark,

absolutely drunk out of his head.

As the holiday draws to a close,

the teenagers look back at the last week.

I'm ready to go home.

It's taking its toll now, the week of boozing and partying.

Looking forward to seeing my mum and my sister.

I like the simple things in life,

like my little sister tickling my feet to wake me up and stuff,

because she does it all the time, every day.

When you do something every day, you get used to it,

so when it's not there... Like people say, you don't...

you don't know what you've got until it's gone.

I've learnt that I can take responsibility.

I don't need a drink to have a good time,

nobody needs drinks to have a good time.

On this holiday, Lee has definitely reiterated the fact

that we're best friends. And if not, we've become even closer.

Dale and his mates have hit the beach for the final time.

Boys, we let the dogs out on this holiday.

-We did Manchester proud.

-Yeah.

Mum Lisa and Auntie Paula are about to reveal themselves

to him and his mates.

I'm absolutely scared out me skin at the minute.

I don't know how Dale's going to react to it.

He'll probably smile, maybe laugh at first,

but I think out of nerves and shock, obviously, until I, er, you know,

start like giving him what for and telling him,

you know the way I feel about what he's done behind me back.

Like, I've enjoyed it. I've enjoyed Nikos. It's been all right, ain't it?

Well, Dale, after the things I asked you not to do,

-what did you do?

-What you doing?

Day one, Dale goes home on his own.

The beach, what's the main thing - night time, sea?

-Didn't go in it.

-You better concern yourself because I'm pissed off.

Give up going away,

to watch YOU go against my word, Dale.

Then you sit there laughing. It's funny, isn't it?

Go against... What, getting quads?

-Quads.

-You'd be surprised what we've seen.

-Oh, no!

-And I did not realise how much you drink.

These are a bad influence, these lot.

But we also see, "Come on, drink it, drink it!"

I know exactly who the instigator is because it was there, proven.

Er, well, I'm sorry for the bad stuff I've done.

Come on! Can I have a cuddle?

Oh, oh! I have been dying to see you. I've been whingeing every day.

A bit shook up, a bit of a shock to the system like,

I didn't expect that.

I don't know what to say.

I can't believe that she's witnessed all of that, you know.

Been there while I've done these stupid things.

Time for Lisa to find out if Dale has learnt from this experience.

Put yourself then, yeah, in my shoes.

Abbie's 19, yeah.

Would you go spying on her or would you not?

Yeah, I would, and I'd be pissed off.

So, with Abbie like, if I'd seen her like getting drunk and that,

-I wouldn't like it?

-Why?

I've had to sit and watch you get absolutely steaming.

-Mm.

-I've never really seen you drunk - not like that.

I've never ever seen you drink as much as what you did.

But what I'm saying, I know how much alcohol changes a person.

The only argument I have with you, are them

like couple of stipulations that I did say to you

before you came out.

-But I think you should have just a little bit of respect.

-Yeah.

The thing that's got on my nerves is the things he's done,

what I've asked him not to do.

But, no matter what he does, I love him to bits.

And nothing, nothing ever will change that.

Have you learnt anything?

Yeah. Maybe you are right because if I put myself in that position

like you said with Abbie, it's not a nice feeling.

From this experience, like, I've learnt, it's not like

a nice emotional feeling to see

somebody you love doing stupid things.

So, I can understand how she's felt this week.

I won't put you through it again.

You can buy my dinner though.

I knew there'd be a catch to it.

# Without you

# Without you #

Tom's parents are about to reveal themselves.

Feelings are a little bit mixed emotions

a little bit excited, nervous.

I can't get it in me head how Tom is going to react.

They've had their ups and downs,

but Tom, Lee and Blake are together at their hotel bar.

I think the first night probably was the best night for all of us

because we got to like see what's about.

Yeah, it was definitely the best night.

It was like looking what there is, what's good.

-I can't remember the first night.

-I can't remember it.

-No.

I can't remember all the nights, to be fair.

His recent illness means Tom's laying off the beers.

It's a learning curve though, isn't it?

It's growing up, like leaving the nest, isn't it?

And like leaving the parents.

OK, Tom.

Oh, gosh!

Would you mind explaining about all this excess drinking?

What about the hospital?

-What about it?

-It would have been nice if you'd phoned me to tell me.

Put me in the picture.

Oh, my God!

Why are you on my holiday?

We know. Yeah.

How embarrassing!

And, like, it was the weirdest thing ever.

It's like... It's like seeing them on my holiday.

It's like walking through the doors like that.

What! Just thinking what they've seen this past week.

This week has been the worst and the best of my life.

It's all right. I've tried me best.

Where's Blake?

Come on, Blake, where are you?

Come on!

I did try and look after them though.

In Blake's way, in Blake's world.

The only thing I've done that I wouldn't have wanted

Tom's parents to see is fracturing my fingers

because I bet they thought, "What a knob!"

It's like I'm not here to prove a point,

I've come here to enjoy myself and I have enjoyed myself.

Time for Pam and Alan to have a heart to heart with Tom

about their spying experience.

We've learnt a lot about you.

You are becoming a man, aren't you, now?

I think this holiday for me has enabled me

to cut the apron strings. I can let you go university now,

and I feel better because I know you can cope with being ill.

You know. You'll go and meet new friends

and you'll know how to judge those friends.

I think the holiday has seen Tom grow up really - from the money,

from the illness, from friendships.

We saw you and Lee supporting each other.

From this holiday, I know who is my friend and who is not a...

And that has been one of the best things about it.

-Yeah, yeah.

-Emphasise the friendship.

The main thing I'll take from this experience is friendship,

I thought I'd come out here with two friends,

but I'm leaving with one - it doesn't bother me.

Me and dad have been proud of you. You've not let us down in any way.

It's something that will stay with us,

all parties have learnt a great deal by it.

Next time, a big-drinking boy and a sensible girl...

Are you being serious? Are you wanting to go out?

..head to the Greek island of Zante.
