1
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,440
In the heart of the French
countryside,
2
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:10,760
a magnificent chateau stood
uncared for and abandoned.
3
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,920
Then, five years ago,
everything changed...
4
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,880
Oh, wow! Oh, look at that!
5
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:20,160
..when an intrepid British couple...
6
00:00:20,160 --> 00:00:22,400
Turn, turn, turn, turn...
7
00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:24,840
Wow!
8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,160
..unlocked its front door...
9
00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:28,880
Everything's gorgeous.
10
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:34,560
..fell in love with it's grandeur
and embarked on an adventure.
11
00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,840
It's so incredibly important to
bring it back to life.
12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,920
Since they moved in,
engineer Dick Strawbridge
13
00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:47,160
and his wife, designer Angel,
14
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:50,800
have transformed almost
all 45 rooms,
15
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:53,840
including four sumptuous
guest suites
16
00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:57,360
for their wedding and events
business.
17
00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,640
But, despite their hard work, their
dream often resembled a nightmare.
18
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:06,200
You should not to be able
to see the sky out of your roof.
19
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,840
Behind every romantic story,
is the reality!
20
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,400
Now, t's the beginning of a
brand-new year...
21
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,960
Welcome aboard, mateys!
22
00:01:17,960 --> 00:01:21,000
There's 25 tonnes of stones to move.
23
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,280
..and, with business busier than
ever...
24
00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:27,120
Oops!
25
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:28,960
..there are new challenges...
26
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:31,720
Woo!
27
00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,440
It's now a boat!
28
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:36,280
..ensuring the chateau's
perfect for guests...
29
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,480
Hello.
30
00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:40,760
.as well as creating a family home
filled with love.
31
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,520
It's time to find out what
happens next...
32
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:48,480
I simply love you, darling!
Oh!
33
00:01:48,480 --> 00:01:51,200
..in this 21st century French
fairy tale.
34
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:00,760
It's summer at the chateau
35
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,080
and the water lilies that Dick
and Angel recently
36
00:02:03,080 --> 00:02:05,880
planted are beginning to bloom.
37
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:14,040
Doing the water now?
38
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,920
You're doing the water?
Ah, lovely!
39
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:21,440
Inspired by their earlier visit to
Monet's house in Giverny,
40
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,240
the chateau's moat now has its very
own collection of lily pads.
41
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:30,360
But watch I'm going to put
a little bit of ochre. Watch.
42
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:34,360
Dick, Angel, Arthur and Dorothy have
decided to celebrate the new
43
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,120
lilies with a mini
tribute to the artist himself.
44
00:02:40,920 --> 00:02:44,160
Do you remember Monet? Yeah.
What sort of pictures did he do?
45
00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:46,920
What do you call them, Arthur?
Fuzzies.
46
00:02:46,920 --> 00:02:48,840
The fuzzies, yeah.
47
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:52,000
Hoping to improve on Monet's
"fuzzy paintings",
48
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,400
the family focus on making their own
Strawbridge versions.
49
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,720
Don't forget the lilies.
50
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,000
Oh.
51
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:02,880
Dad? Yes, son?
52
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:05,160
Sorry but there can't be
any lily pads.
53
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,440
The thing is you can dot some lily
pads on the top of it.
54
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,160
Enjoying a rare afternoon off work,
55
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:24,280
Dick and Angel are determined to
make the most it.
56
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:27,240
It looks amazing, Dad!
You're really sweet.
57
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,840
It is quite relaxing though,
I've got to say.
58
00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,840
Yours is looking very
Impressionist, Darling.
59
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,960
Aw, that's lovely.
60
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:42,720
This is my little
corner of paradise!
61
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,880
Monet can keep his garden,
I'm happy here, darling girl.
62
00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,400
Mm, me too, baby.
63
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:54,960
The peace and quiet though won't
last for long,
64
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,240
as they need to get ready for one
the year's biggest events.
65
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,640
Over the past five years,
Dick and Angel have accomplished far
66
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:12,720
more than they could ever imagine,
while also raising a young family...
67
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:14,320
In you go, big boy!
68
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,840
..and a lot of it would not have
been possible without
69
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:20,200
the support of Angel's parents,
Jenny and Steve.
70
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:21,520
Welcome home!
71
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,880
They were there at the very
beginning,
72
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,280
when Dick and Angel first
set eyes on the chateau...
73
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,200
This is truly beautiful.
74
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:34,600
Darling, darling, darling.
Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
75
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:37,000
..and, they were quick to see
it's potential.
76
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,400
This might be part of your wedding
business as well.
77
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,600
To help Dick and Angel realise
their dream,
78
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:47,960
Jenny and Steve then upped sticks
and moved from Essex to France,
79
00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:49,680
to be by their side...
80
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:53,280
Put this on.
We're making apple pie!
81
00:04:53,280 --> 00:04:55,520
..pitching in whenever they could...
82
00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,760
..they've been on the chateau
journey every step of the way...
83
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:02,520
Woohoo!
84
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,160
Oh!
85
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:08,480
And, to show their enormous
gratitude,
86
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,840
Dick and Angel are planning a
magnificent thank you present.
87
00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,240
DICK LAUGHS
88
00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:24,880
As Jenny and Steve are about to
celebrate their 50th wedding
89
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:30,120
anniversary, Angel would like to
give them the party of a lifetime.
90
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,320
A chance for them to reunite with
the friends and family
91
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,240
they left behind in Britain.
92
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:40,760
The Jenny and Steve golden
anniversary meeting
93
00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,800
of 12.30, 2019, de-de-de-de!
94
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,200
Really lovely. I'm really excited to
show everyone like
95
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,280
Cafe Grandma and the house and you
know.
96
00:05:52,280 --> 00:05:54,840
And this party's going to be extra
special,
97
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:58,440
because, 50 years ago, Jenny and
Steve's big day was a much smaller
98
00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,680
and more spontaneous affair.
99
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:05,440
I never really said it to you but
it's kind of cool that you eloped!
100
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:09,480
What did you wear
on your wedding day?
101
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,560
You wore a really nice.
I had a mohair suit.
102
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,880
It actually had a slight
shine on it.
103
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:17,240
Oh, dad that's right up your street.
104
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:21,240
And my outfit came from C&A's.
Brilliant!
105
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,640
As Angel's also hosting 37 other
events at the chateau this year,
106
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,240
being ultra-organized is a must.
107
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,640
Is that all your paperwork, can I
just have a little look? Mm.
108
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:36,080
But this time, she's having to adapt
a tad more than usual,
109
00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,400
mainly because Steve's in charge
of the guest-list.
110
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,760
It would be very nice if I could
get, if the two Pats could come.
111
00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,680
What about Alan, my friend Alan?
112
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:49,920
He just keeps adding other ones. No
they're on the list, aren't they?
113
00:06:49,920 --> 00:06:52,560
No. You haven't given me...
They're all on here.
114
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,800
Where? Erm...
115
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,160
OK, so I'm not perfect, it seems.
116
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:04,040
Mum how have you coped? You mean
with the list or Dad?
117
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,320
The big thing is, we can't hold more
than 80 people in the Orangery
118
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:12,920
for a sit down meal and let me
tell you you're up to 77 people
119
00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,480
and that's without Arthur
and Dorothy.
120
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,160
So, if we don't do the sit down meal
in the Orangery,
121
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,200
I think it will be quite refreshing,
I think we'll do something similar
122
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:23,920
to what we did at our wedding,
like petit plats.
123
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:27,120
That's what I thought.
I would love that.
124
00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:30,480
It's a party for the family and
friends. It's a celebration.
125
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:34,200
It's informal, it's not a formal
thing, is it? No.
126
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,960
You've just got to behave yourself.
Fine.
127
00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:40,280
You've just got to behave yourself!
I really can't guarantee that!
128
00:07:42,360 --> 00:07:46,240
While Angel works out the logistics
of her parents' party,
129
00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,320
Dick's on a very different mission.
130
00:07:51,520 --> 00:07:56,160
He's spotted a bargain - 400 miles
away, in South Wales.
131
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:00,720
Nev? Hello!
132
00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,120
Transport manager Nev is selling a
type of vehicle
133
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,120
that Dick has long-admired.
134
00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,480
There's your new baby, there's your
new baby.
135
00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,760
That is absolutely gorgeous!
136
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,640
The Asquith Mascot bus was built in
the 1980s,
137
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,320
using the chassis of a Transit van.
138
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:22,120
It's a head-turner.
139
00:08:22,120 --> 00:08:25,000
Angela's going to be so impressed.
140
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:28,800
More recently, this one's been
used as a wedding car
141
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:31,560
and Dick is utterly smitten.
142
00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,240
It looks in very good nick.
143
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:34,920
It is - one careful owner.
144
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,120
The other 25 didn't give a damn!
145
00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,040
Rear door.
146
00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:45,320
It might weigh three and a half
tonnes and not go that fast,
147
00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,800
but Dick has grand plans for it.
148
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:52,160
It's the shell is what we're after.
149
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:54,920
He wants to convert it into a family
camper van,
150
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:57,440
so that they can all go on
adventures together,
151
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:00,080
when their busy schedule at the
chateau allows it.
152
00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:04,920
It's been standing quite a while
but... Rock solid?
153
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:08,560
Rock solid very reliable engine.
It looks in very good nick.
154
00:09:08,560 --> 00:09:10,320
This is very special,
this is very special.
155
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,040
Wow! It's actually quite spacious,
isn't it?
156
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:17,720
It's not bad. It's standard
four-speed gear box.
157
00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:20,400
Reverse is over here. Yeah.
158
00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,400
Handbrake? Handbrake down the side
here. Oh, yep, yep good.
159
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:27,640
I love it. Thank you so much!
160
00:09:30,960 --> 00:09:33,640
Have a good trip back.
Thank you!
161
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:35,400
This makes me smile!
162
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:40,120
Now he's off, Dick's
a very happy man.
163
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:43,240
All he needs to do,
is make it back to France!
164
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:45,240
DICK LAUGHS
165
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:56,080
It's the height of summer
166
00:09:56,080 --> 00:09:59,440
and while Angel's busy preparing
for her parents'
167
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:00,920
golden anniversary party...
168
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,640
We're moving.
169
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,520
..Dick's driving his latest project,
an Asquith Mascot bus,
170
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:09,880
back to the chateau.
171
00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:14,400
She hasn't been out of Wales
for years.
172
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:17,800
We hit England yesterday
173
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,240
and France today.
174
00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:32,680
And finally, after a 400-mile
journey, over three countries,
175
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:36,520
the future Strawbridge
camper van is home.
176
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:39,960
SCREECHING AND SCRAPING
177
00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:42,720
ANGEL LAUGHS
178
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,320
Hello.
179
00:10:48,320 --> 00:10:51,320
It is SO much better in real life!
180
00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:55,680
Oh, oh, babes.
181
00:10:55,680 --> 00:10:58,360
You like it? Yes! It's ridiculous,
isn't it?
182
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,600
It is amazing. Good, isn't it?
183
00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:02,840
Wow.
184
00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:06,360
She likes it! She likes it.
185
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,920
This is ridiculous.
186
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,240
It is ridiculous, isn't it?
187
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,000
To Arthur and Dorothy,
though, it's perfect.
188
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,480
Wow. Can I get in there?
189
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:23,440
Steps down.
190
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,320
Doors in the back.
191
00:11:25,320 --> 00:11:26,960
There you go. What do you reckon?
192
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,000
Mum, I love it! I love it.
193
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,080
I love it. Look at the flowers.
194
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,640
As the former wedding bus will need
some light pruning before it can
195
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:40,000
become the family camper,
Arthur's rather keen to get going.
196
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:41,800
I'm putting it on the table.
197
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,720
All right, darling. Yep, brilliant.
198
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,520
You could just tell, Arthur
just wanted the flowers out.
199
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:49,240
He just wanted to get started.
He's so excited.
200
00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:52,120
Dad! Dad! Dad!
We have a treasure chest!
201
00:11:53,560 --> 00:11:56,720
What?!
202
00:11:56,720 --> 00:11:58,000
Oh, my goodness me.
203
00:11:59,560 --> 00:12:00,560
Wow.
204
00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:06,480
Let's go to work, family.
ANGEL LAUGHS
205
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,080
The camper van conversion,
though, will have to wait
206
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:13,480
because not only is there Jenny and
Steve's anniversary party to plan,
207
00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:17,960
but a new job has just shot to the
top of Dick and Angel's to-do list.
208
00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:30,160
The Chateau-de-la-Motte Husson
is surrounded by 12 acres of land
209
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,800
with a third covered in woods.
210
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,400
And hidden amongst the trees is
a rather large and mysterious hole.
211
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,760
Wow. I have never seen that.
212
00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:43,440
You've never been there? No.
213
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,920
Could that...? I might have told you
it was in here, didn't I?
214
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,400
You did tell me it was in here.
215
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:50,320
I think the reason I've never come
is that I'm often with the children
216
00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:54,360
and I've not really known...
What is it? Is it a well or...?
217
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,680
I don't know. See,
I was thinking it may be a...
218
00:12:57,680 --> 00:13:00,400
A swimming pool? A big Jacuzzi!
219
00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,360
ANGEL LAUGHS
220
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,240
I was thinking it might be
an ice house.
221
00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:08,960
Wealthy families, like the chateau's
previous owners, the Baglionis,
222
00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,760
would have kept their ice
in a subterranean ice house.
223
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,880
If this is the remains of one,
it's lost its roof,
224
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:19,400
but as far as Angel's concerned,
it could still prove useful.
225
00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,120
Has it got a base? Can we fill it up
and see what happens?
226
00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:23,920
No, it would go straight through
the edges.
227
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:25,600
This is not a swimming pool. OK.
228
00:13:25,600 --> 00:13:28,360
Lose that thought to begin with.
It's not a swimming pool.
229
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:30,320
The water would just go out
everywhere.
230
00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:32,040
What it is is
a bit of a death trap... Oh.
231
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:35,760
..so we have to think about
how we deal with that.
232
00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:39,880
Can we put a fence around it?
233
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,720
We'll definitely fence it,
if nothing else.
234
00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:51,080
Worried their future wedding
guests will not only
235
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,800
stumble across the hole
but also into it,
236
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,800
Dick and chateau helpers Amanda
and Quentin promptly get to work.
237
00:13:57,800 --> 00:14:01,400
The reason why we're putting
a fence around it is... Watch.
238
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,920
THEY GASP
That's pretty deep.
239
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,280
I don't know how far down it goes.
It's deep.
240
00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:11,280
It looks like it's safe,
but it's not.
241
00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:14,840
That made your eyes open,
didn't it?! Pretty scary.
242
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,320
I don't like it.
243
00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:17,600
It's a bit scary.
244
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:21,240
What I think we're going to do...
245
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,880
..because it doesn't
look like water,
246
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,080
people won't give it
the respect it needs.
247
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,960
OK? That's why we're going to put
the posts in and around it,
248
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:31,920
so we can make it safer.
249
00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:37,640
We want the posts to go all the way
around, Quentin, in a perfect shape.
250
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:38,920
OK.
251
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,920
DICK CHUCKLES
252
00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:42,640
Good.
253
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:46,160
Go on, Quentin!
It's good for your pecs.
254
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:49,720
It's going to be a Heath Robinson
fence-posting system.
255
00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,240
I didn't bring a tape measure.
256
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,520
Well done, kid. Hold it, hold it,
hold it.
257
00:14:59,840 --> 00:15:00,840
Next one.
258
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,080
While Dick ensures their guests
don't fall into large holes,
259
00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,480
Angel's busy sorting
out their accommodation.
260
00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:12,880
And with 17 weddings and her
parents' golden anniversary party to
261
00:15:12,880 --> 00:15:18,000
organise, her latest acquisition's
about to prove rather popular.
262
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,880
SHE GASPS
263
00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:21,200
Wow!
264
00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:22,400
Do you know what it is?
265
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:23,960
An iron, a press?
266
00:15:23,960 --> 00:15:26,640
It's a rotary iron
for the big linen.
267
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:30,440
All the napkins, we can put it
through, and it just comes out.
268
00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:32,720
That's amazing!
269
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,200
It's like Christmas come early!
270
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:39,600
As well as their guests' bedclothes,
there are also at least 80 napkins
271
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,960
to wash and iron after every single
wedding -
272
00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,800
a time-consuming job
that can't be avoided,
273
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,680
but can at least be sped up.
274
00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:53,000
Things like this make everyone's
life a lot easier.
275
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:56,080
And, you know,
I don't need diamonds!
276
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:58,400
Like, going into...
277
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:03,280
I need really good hoovers, really
good irons, good window cleaners.
278
00:16:03,280 --> 00:16:05,120
That's what my world is around.
279
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:08,440
And then, when all of that's done,
I can do flowers.
280
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,000
This is lovely.
281
00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,000
CHEERING
282
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:23,320
This year, Dick and Angel are
hosting more weddings and events
283
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,360
at the chateau than ever before.
284
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,320
Congratulations, Ashley and Lisa,
I pronounce you husband and wife.
285
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:31,560
Ashley, you may kiss your bride.
286
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:38,320
But as well as arranging everything
from the food to the flowers,
287
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:42,360
Angel also has to organise Jenny
and Steve's golden anniversary.
288
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,680
And to up the ante even further,
289
00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:48,400
they're hosting a three-day
wedding just before it.
290
00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:50,720
We definitely need to have a sweep.
291
00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:58,080
I got up whatever time, and just
sorting out transfers for Mum
292
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:01,360
and Dad's wedding anniversary.
293
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:03,240
It's busy.
294
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,720
There's nothing being taken
away from the wedding.
295
00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:09,320
And you know what? We're kind of
used to doing this thing
296
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:12,360
where we've got something
quite big going on,
297
00:17:12,360 --> 00:17:15,400
but we've got something else really
big going like that.
298
00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,080
It's parallel activity.
299
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:19,560
Dad's calling me quite a bit.
300
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:21,880
And it's great, there's
so much excitement
301
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:23,520
happening in the background
302
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:27,480
and that excitement is joyous to
see, but there's the lead-up,
303
00:17:27,480 --> 00:17:29,480
there's the journey to it,
304
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,280
and, erm...and that is just...
that's happening, that's now.
305
00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:38,880
But no matter how busy Angel is,
she's determined her parents
306
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,080
will have the celebration
they've always wanted.
307
00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,400
You know, it's good, it's exciting.
308
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:46,960
Can't wait.
309
00:17:49,480 --> 00:17:52,680
And, as more than 100 of Jenny
and Steve's family
310
00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:55,520
and friends are coming
over from Britain to celebrate,
311
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:57,840
some extra help's been drafted in.
312
00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,600
This time, from Dick's
side of the family.
313
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,040
How is it?
314
00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:05,680
THEY CHUCKLE
315
00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:06,760
It's quite warm.
316
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:11,160
His son, James, a professional chef,
has driven from Cornwall to France
317
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,040
to lend a hand,
as well as catch up with everyone.
318
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,560
Come and give me
the wisdom of your ways.
319
00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:20,120
Oh, big boy, you've come to see your
daddy. That makes it all worthwhile.
320
00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,160
Wait, wait, wait!
321
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:32,840
Now James is here, the golden
anniversary catering team
322
00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:34,560
is officially convened.
323
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:35,880
Oh, Dad!
324
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:38,240
And it's soon clear who's head chef.
325
00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:41,360
I...scream!
326
00:18:41,360 --> 00:18:44,120
Right, Grandma and Grandad are going
to have lots of different food.
327
00:18:44,120 --> 00:18:46,760
That's what we've decided - there'll
be lots of different food.
328
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,240
How do we do it?
I've got a good idea.
329
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:51,840
We could do all around the world.
330
00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:53,240
All around the world?
331
00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:54,560
That's a brilliant idea.
332
00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:58,000
But with so many people to feed,
Dick's keen to narrow the choice
333
00:18:58,000 --> 00:19:01,560
down to the countries that Jenny
and Steve have at least visited.
334
00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,880
Right, OK, what other countries
have they been to?
335
00:19:03,880 --> 00:19:06,760
England. What's England famous for?
336
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:09,480
Wait, golden roast beef.
337
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:11,080
Roast beef. OK.
338
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:16,560
Wait - since they love curries,
we could do a giant curry.
339
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:18,000
Curry's a good idea.
340
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:20,520
And it has all sorts of different
curries in it.
341
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:23,480
Can I just say, this is what
it's like working with you,
342
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,720
because he comes up with
so many ideas.
343
00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:29,480
We need to do some cooking, Arthur.
Yeah. Let's do it.
344
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:30,680
We could do sushi.
345
00:19:32,360 --> 00:19:33,440
This is my family.
346
00:19:33,440 --> 00:19:36,040
Make something really fancy.
Can you do that? Yeah.
347
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:37,440
LAUGHTER
348
00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:47,560
While the menu reflects Jenny
and Steve's love of travel,
349
00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,240
Angel's thinking of other ways
350
00:19:49,240 --> 00:19:52,280
to add a personal touch to her
parents' party.
351
00:19:52,280 --> 00:19:54,720
And, as her dad's a keen
photographer,
352
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,560
she has an idea he might appreciate.
353
00:19:57,560 --> 00:20:04,120
All my essentials - bottle opener,
clamp, glue,
354
00:20:04,120 --> 00:20:09,920
and used film canisters.
355
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,680
I did have this wonderful idea that
I would send everyone
356
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:19,160
little sort of Kodak invitations.
357
00:20:19,160 --> 00:20:22,760
And, you know, one thing
kind of happens and another
358
00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:27,160
and then, you know, you lose months
upon months,
359
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:33,040
so I didn't get it out,
but I did not give up on the idea
360
00:20:33,040 --> 00:20:36,240
because I've bought these
and they're going to get used!
361
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,920
Angel's got dozens of old film
canisters and she's hoping,
362
00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:44,320
if her plan works,
to turn them into a little memento.
363
00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,760
I only ever remember my dad with a
camera or a cine camera in his hand.
364
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,840
always, and we have got so many
photos.
365
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,720
I mean, their attic now,
over at the house, honestly?
366
00:20:54,720 --> 00:21:00,040
It's basically full of just photos
so it just felt quite fitting.
367
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,960
As the anniversary will also be
a once-in-a-lifetime reunion,
368
00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:07,880
Angel's hoping to gather as many
photos of the event as possible.
369
00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:13,080
The idea is that I'm going to
flick the lid off
370
00:21:13,080 --> 00:21:18,200
then put one of these strips, which
is sort of, you know, the film,
371
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,760
and then they can pull it out
themselves.
372
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:23,800
The strip in the film canister
simply tells their guests
373
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,800
where they can upload their snaps.
374
00:21:25,800 --> 00:21:31,080
So it's really, really simple and
I think it will look quite sweet.
375
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,760
50 years is a long old time,
isn't it?
376
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:38,200
Mum and Dad met when they were 16
and, basically, my mum said,
377
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:42,120
"I went out with your dad cos he
just wouldn't take no for an
answer!"
378
00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:47,200
And you know what? 50 years later,
379
00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:49,520
I mean, they're just
made for each other.
380
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,000
They're a good partnership.
381
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:55,280
You know what it's like
when you're doing things.
382
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:58,120
The first one always ends up
being a bit ropey
383
00:21:58,120 --> 00:22:00,400
and then you get into your flow.
384
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,840
So, right, OK.
385
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:03,600
That's that, that's out.
386
00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:08,600
And then I just need to put
that on there...like so.
387
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,000
That's good, a good size.
388
00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:19,280
And then just need to roll it round.
389
00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:27,840
And once the canister cover's
clicked back on...the job's done.
390
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:30,920
I've cracked it. It's good.
391
00:22:42,160 --> 00:22:45,760
Outside, Dick and James are going to
the walled garden in search of
392
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:48,760
some aromatic extras for the party
menu.
393
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,760
Right, herbs. This is slightly
different from the last time
394
00:22:51,760 --> 00:22:56,400
you saw it. Bit overgrown at the
minute. It looks fantastic,
doesn't it? Not bad, eh? Yeah.
395
00:22:56,400 --> 00:23:00,280
Dick's garden may be bursting with
culinary delights,
396
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,280
but he's also quite keen it
remains that way.
397
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,680
Are we allowed to just help
ourselves to whatever we want?
398
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,040
Erm... Yes. Within reason.
Tell me before you cut.
399
00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:11,920
There's sage there,
there's mint there.
400
00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:13,440
They're sage flowers.
401
00:23:14,640 --> 00:23:17,160
Don't take too much. Oh, you...
Don't take... That's enough.
402
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,520
You'll have plenty.
Leave some for next time.
403
00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,840
No! Tch... What do you mean,
"No, tch"?
404
00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,120
I know I'm going to need it.
405
00:23:24,120 --> 00:23:25,200
The sage is good there.
406
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,240
Don't take too much of that sage,
cos there's a huge, big sage over
there. Look at that beast.
407
00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:29,560
I don't like that one as much.
408
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:32,480
You don't like it? No.
Why don't you like it?
409
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:34,280
Cos this one, I prefer this.
410
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,600
Right, strawberries.
Tell me that isn't beautiful.
411
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,360
That's good. May I try one, please?
412
00:23:38,360 --> 00:23:40,000
Try that. See what it's like.
413
00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:41,680
See? I do love you, big boy.
414
00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,000
And to accompany the strawberries,
415
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:50,880
James spots something that
just screams summer.
416
00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:53,160
I want that elderflower. Come on.
417
00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,000
You want the elderflower, OK.
418
00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,920
I'll get on your shoulders or
something. What?
419
00:23:57,920 --> 00:24:01,600
The ones higher up always taste
better, don't they?
420
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,320
The nettles! Don't do it!
421
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,240
Let me up, come on! No. Stop.
422
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:09,000
Oh... I'll lift you up.
423
00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:12,840
I'm getting stung. I'll lift you up.
424
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:14,120
I'm getting stung!
425
00:24:14,120 --> 00:24:16,440
I've got shorts on,
you little toerag.
426
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:19,600
Ow! I'll take a few of these.
427
00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:20,600
Ow.
428
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:25,680
I'd quite like to try something
different with these, Dad. Yeah?
429
00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,000
We could dehydrate them. Turn them
into, like, a dried flower.
430
00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:31,280
Yeah, that'd be nice.
431
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,560
Smell, smell. Yeah.
432
00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,320
Beep!
433
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:36,920
Sucker for that one, wasn't I?
434
00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:38,240
LAUGHTER
435
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,360
It's the middle of the wedding
season, but for the next two days
436
00:24:50,360 --> 00:24:52,680
Dick and Angel will be fully
focused on one
437
00:24:52,680 --> 00:24:54,480
of the year's biggest events...
438
00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,480
..Jenny and Steve's
50th wedding anniversary.
439
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,320
And with close friends
and family arriving,
440
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,640
Angel desperately hopes
the reunion goes to plan.
441
00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:11,760
We've just finished a wedding,
442
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,280
and it's been the hottest
weekend of the year.
443
00:25:14,280 --> 00:25:16,280
We're absolutely...
444
00:25:16,280 --> 00:25:18,800
Just, yeah, it's been hot.
445
00:25:18,800 --> 00:25:22,600
And, you know, things are a little
bit more tiring when it's hot...
446
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,280
..and rubby.
447
00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,240
As Jenny and Steve moved to France
five years ago to be with
448
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,240
Dick, Angel and the children,
449
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,360
they haven't seen
some of their friends for years.
450
00:25:32,360 --> 00:25:35,680
One, two, three, four, five...
451
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:38,680
My brain is shot,
I'm not going to lie.
452
00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:42,040
And even though the main
celebrations will be tomorrow,
453
00:25:42,040 --> 00:25:44,360
quite a few guests are coming
this evening
454
00:25:44,360 --> 00:25:47,000
for a barbecue and a catch-up.
455
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:50,400
Every single room in the house is
being turned around at the moment.
456
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,080
And actually it's really lovely.
It's kind of the excitement.
457
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,400
Mum's excited, everyone's excited.
458
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,600
For the moment, I just need to check
I've got enough chairs out.
459
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,560
With more guests than normal
arriving at the chateau,
460
00:26:01,560 --> 00:26:03,600
Angel just hopes they can cope,
461
00:26:03,600 --> 00:26:06,120
and her parents have the party
of a lifetime.
462
00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,840
It's going to all be all
right on the night.
463
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:13,280
SHE SIGHS
464
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:20,560
HE GRUNTS
465
00:26:20,560 --> 00:26:24,960
Four years ago, Dick managed to
combine both his engineering
466
00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:28,480
and culinary skills in one
magnificent contraption...
467
00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:30,800
I'd like you around this side,
please, cos it's...
468
00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:31,720
Can you hear it?
469
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:34,000
OIL DRUM ROARS
470
00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:36,520
..by transforming an old oil drum...
471
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,240
..into a fully functioning
pig roaster.
472
00:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,160
Four years, and lots of pig roasts,
later it's still going strong.
473
00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:50,400
Do you see the layer there?
474
00:26:50,400 --> 00:26:53,920
That's the smoke going into
the meat!
475
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,440
Last year, Dick even designed
and made
476
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,640
a super-sized, tailor-made
rotisserie for it...
477
00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:01,040
Three, two, one, up.
478
00:27:01,040 --> 00:27:05,400
..capable of cooking up
to 50 chickens at a time.
479
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:06,720
You ready? Yep.
480
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,720
Preparing for tonight's barbecue,
Dick's son James finally has
481
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,120
a chance to
inspect his dad's handiwork.
482
00:27:13,120 --> 00:27:15,520
Lift it up, slide it in there.
483
00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:17,800
That was heavy, wasn't it?
484
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:19,080
Right.
485
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:20,520
Ah!
486
00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:22,920
Now, it's that piece of metal.
Stop the air getting out.
487
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:25,520
Did you...? Is that
one of your original inventions?
488
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:26,760
You little...! Come on.
489
00:27:35,120 --> 00:27:36,320
Back in the kitchen,
490
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,480
Dick starts checking
off their culinary to-do list.
491
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,320
The marinated goat's cheese - you've
got marinating, correct, yes? Yep.
492
00:27:42,320 --> 00:27:44,120
The slaw, we're going to wait,
493
00:27:44,120 --> 00:27:46,400
and the potato salad is the next
one down on the list. Yeah.
494
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:50,880
Making potato salad may sound
simple, but as it's
495
00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:54,960
one of Jenny's specialities,
Dick has to get it right.
496
00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,280
Do you not know how to make
potato salad, Dad?
497
00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,160
I'm only allowed to make it one way.
498
00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:00,280
What way is that?
499
00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,680
The only way I'm allowed to make it
is the way that Jenny's made it
500
00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:04,200
for Angela all her life.
501
00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:05,960
And if you mess with that,
what would happen?
502
00:28:05,960 --> 00:28:08,920
JAMES LAUGHS
In with the geese at night
or something?
503
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,400
I get disowned as a son-in-law
and a husband.
504
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:12,800
CHUCKLING
505
00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:15,960
Time though is running out.
506
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:19,000
The bus has arrived!
507
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:24,520
It's five o'clock and, ready or not,
their first guests are here.
508
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,040
Hello! Hello!
509
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:29,800
Oh! Hi, Auntie Jane!
510
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,000
As many of their friends haven't
been to the chateau for years,
511
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:35,000
and rather a lot has changed...
512
00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:36,280
Oh!
513
00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:39,840
..five-year-old Dorothy promptly
organises a grand tour.
514
00:28:39,840 --> 00:28:41,040
Wow!
515
00:28:42,400 --> 00:28:45,880
Have you seen the...? Oh, gee!
516
00:28:45,880 --> 00:28:48,440
Oh, I love the bedspread.
Isn't it lovely?
517
00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,000
Oh, that bathroom!
518
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:51,160
It's very nice.
519
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:52,400
Thank you!
520
00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,000
We're seeing it in the flesh now,
aren't we?
521
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,560
LAUGHTER
522
00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,920
Oh, every window's got
a lovely view.
523
00:29:01,920 --> 00:29:04,760
You know, it's one of the beautiful
things about this place.
524
00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:11,160
Oh, we're there! Well, that's
right. Yeah.
525
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,080
Ah, I'm looking forward to this now.
526
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:20,120
Outside, Angel's brother Paul
is hoping to
527
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,880
smuggle in a surprise
present for their parents.
528
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,360
Oh, wow! Is this it? That's it.
529
00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:28,360
Oh, you've wrapped it.
530
00:29:28,360 --> 00:29:30,120
Oh, well done, you!
531
00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:32,480
As well as being
an anniversary present,
532
00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:34,360
it's also their chance
to be forgiven
533
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:36,840
for a 35-year-old misdemeanour,
534
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:38,840
when they accidentally knocked over
535
00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:42,600
and smashed one of their parents'
most precious ornaments.
536
00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:43,880
How old was I?
537
00:29:43,880 --> 00:29:45,400
About five, four or five.
538
00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:46,880
OK, so, it was your fault.
539
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,320
Uh, I...
540
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,560
Jenny and Steve may have thought it
was broken beyond repair,
541
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:56,320
but three decades later,
Angel and Paul have had it restored.
542
00:29:56,320 --> 00:29:59,320
They just need to sneak it
past their dad.
543
00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:00,920
We bought you a dog!
544
00:30:00,920 --> 00:30:03,160
STEVE LAUGHS
545
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,000
Get the butter to James. He doesn't
know he's got to do it yet.
546
00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,000
Get the butter to James.
547
00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:14,400
In the kitchen, preparations
for the barbecue are in full swing,
548
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:16,920
even if Dick is struggling with
Jenny's potato salad.
549
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:19,360
I'm sticking to the recipe for this,
but it doesn't look like this
550
00:30:19,360 --> 00:30:20,800
when Jenny does it.
551
00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:23,120
It doesn't look like...
552
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:25,840
I hope somebody gives her
a drink before she gets to see it.
553
00:30:27,600 --> 00:30:29,960
We've got to sneak this in
under the wire, son.
554
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,120
But hide it under some chive flowers
and it'll look great.
555
00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,040
James will make it look good.
556
00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:36,520
DICK LAUGHS
557
00:30:41,320 --> 00:30:46,720
At the moment, though, potato salad
is the last thing on Jenny's mind...
558
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:49,600
..as some of her closest
friends are here.
559
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:52,880
With so many people,
including Great Nan, Arthur
560
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:58,200
and Dorothy's great-grandma, making
the effort to cross the Channel,
561
00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:01,760
Dick and Angel want to do everything
they can to make the party
562
00:31:01,760 --> 00:31:03,240
extra-special.
563
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:04,640
Keep going, keep going, keep going.
564
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:06,960
Pull it towards you. When you're
ready, pull it towards you.
565
00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,040
As soon as you get free.
566
00:31:08,040 --> 00:31:09,840
Ah! And we're up. Ah!
567
00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,080
Nice.
568
00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:16,800
That surprised the hell out
of everybody -
569
00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,600
we got there in one go,
didn't it, eh?
570
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,440
Those look amazing!
571
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:22,120
It's a lot of chicken,
isn't it, mate?
572
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:26,360
There you go!
573
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:27,440
Thank you!
574
00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:32,080
Oh, my God!
575
00:31:32,080 --> 00:31:33,080
Mm!
576
00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:36,120
Quite good.
577
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:40,520
When it comes to roasting chickens,
Dick's an expert.
578
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:43,920
Whether he's succeeded in making
Jenny's special potato salad...
579
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:47,280
Right, I've got to serve Mum, even
though the chicken is the star...
580
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,240
..only a taste test will tell.
581
00:31:52,680 --> 00:31:53,680
Beautiful.
582
00:31:55,440 --> 00:31:58,560
Now he's the favourite son-in-law,
Dick can relax
583
00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,360
and prepare dessert -
584
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:03,040
a delicious strawberry sundae...
585
00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:04,880
Sacha, one meringue on each of
these ones
586
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:06,600
that have been sugared, please.
587
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:09,400
..finished off with home-made
elderflower sugar
588
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:12,160
and dried strawberries
from the walled garden.
589
00:32:12,160 --> 00:32:13,720
OK, you're doing it like that.
590
00:32:13,720 --> 00:32:15,600
Another tray behind there,
someone else could grab.
591
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,920
Jennifer and myself, we'd like to
give a big round of applause
592
00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:25,760
to Dick, and his son James,
and Angela for hosting this today.
593
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:26,800
Wonderful!
594
00:32:26,800 --> 00:32:29,640
APPLAUSE
595
00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:32,080
To family! Aw! To family, everyone!
596
00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,320
ALL: To family!
597
00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,880
It's the day of Angel's parents' -
Jenny and Steve's -
598
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:45,640
golden wedding anniversary.
599
00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,640
Over 100 of their close friends
600
00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,080
and family have come across from
Britain for this evening's party.
601
00:32:53,240 --> 00:32:54,680
Look at that rain. Man!
602
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,240
The weather may be disappointing,
603
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,120
but Jenny's thoroughly
enjoying herself
604
00:33:01,120 --> 00:33:02,880
in the chateau's honeymoon suite,
605
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,080
as Angel's giving
her the full bridal treatment,
606
00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:09,360
including hair, make-up,
cream tea and cocktails.
607
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:15,120
I'm going to do a
Rosy Lee Loves A Cup Of Tea.
608
00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:19,520
It's made with rose tea,
kind of like a syrup.
609
00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,920
and I'm going to put vodka,
610
00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:24,520
and a little bit of bubbles.
611
00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:28,520
So, I'm doing it for
all the ladies that are upstairs
612
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,920
in the honeymoon suite having
their hair done at the moment.
613
00:33:33,280 --> 00:33:37,680
Mum doesn't see her family and her
best friends together hardly ever.
614
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,040
It's very, very special,
and, you know,
615
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:42,600
I'm all about capturing
memories - I love it.
616
00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:47,520
Today is a special day -
they've been married 50 years.
617
00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:49,520
Honestly, I think everyone
is feeling...
618
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:51,400
Sort of feeling quite emotional that
619
00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:52,600
just everyone's here.
620
00:33:54,480 --> 00:33:55,840
Tiny bit of rose oil.
621
00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:59,680
This is my experiment.
622
00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:05,840
Oh, oh, that is amazing.
623
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,760
This is an egg yolk.
624
00:34:08,760 --> 00:34:11,040
This is the best glue in the world.
625
00:34:11,040 --> 00:34:13,320
OK, now, let's put that in there.
626
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:18,560
That looks nice.
627
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,720
James, look, I've done your rims.
628
00:34:23,720 --> 00:34:26,000
What? So, it's got rose oil...
629
00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,280
In fact, taste this.
630
00:34:27,280 --> 00:34:28,320
It looks amazing.
631
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:29,680
Rose oil and food colouring.
632
00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,160
Nice? Really nice.
633
00:34:34,160 --> 00:34:35,280
Woo!
634
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:36,480
It looks so pretty.
635
00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:37,840
It looks pretty, doesn't it?
636
00:34:45,400 --> 00:34:46,440
Three minutes.
637
00:34:47,480 --> 00:34:48,520
Right, Dad.
638
00:34:48,520 --> 00:34:50,520
While Angel prepares the drinks,
639
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,840
Dick and James are in charge
of the food.
640
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:54,560
Look all right? Yep, lovely.
641
00:34:54,560 --> 00:34:56,440
I like them just touching. Yeah?
642
00:34:56,440 --> 00:34:57,760
So, jam...
643
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:00,720
Cheeky.
644
00:35:00,720 --> 00:35:02,400
You're making it pretty, aren't you?
645
00:35:02,400 --> 00:35:04,160
Course I'm making it pretty -
it's my job.
646
00:35:05,840 --> 00:35:08,240
You've got more clotted cream -
I didn't know there was spare.
647
00:35:09,520 --> 00:35:11,200
Good work.
648
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:12,480
Yes, chef.
649
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:15,080
I like the way you're only saying
that when no-one's around, Dad.
650
00:35:16,720 --> 00:35:17,720
Cheers.
651
00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,760
I think that's not bad.
652
00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:27,760
Right.
653
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,120
Now their afternoon tea's ready,
654
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:39,840
it's time to see how the beautiful
bride and her maids are doing.
655
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:41,880
Knock, knock. Knock, knock.
656
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:43,760
Hello!
657
00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:45,440
Knock, knock, knock.
658
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,080
Cream teas for very
important ladies.
659
00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,400
It may have taken 50 years...
How are you?
660
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:57,040
..but it looks like Jenny's big day
has finally arrived.
661
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:58,040
Cheese!
662
00:36:07,720 --> 00:36:09,560
Hello. Hello, darling.
663
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,600
Among the thousands of photos
that Steve has,
664
00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,520
some are far more precious
than others,
665
00:36:15,520 --> 00:36:19,520
and today, he's got the perfect
excuse to put them on display.
666
00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:22,000
You know, we didn't have many
photos of our wedding... I know.
667
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,520
..but, you know, what I've got
is very special.
668
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:27,200
Oh, I love it!
Mum looks really unimpressed.
669
00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:29,480
I don't know if I've seen that one.
670
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,000
Look how beautiful Mum was.
671
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,680
This is my absolute
favourite of Mum.
672
00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,400
She was 16 years old.
673
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,440
Oh, I love this picture -
she looks so beautiful.
674
00:36:39,440 --> 00:36:40,560
I love that. I know!
675
00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:45,240
Aw, 50 years - how have you both
done it?
676
00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,720
Shall we put this one maybe here?
677
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:55,560
Oh, I love that picture - that's got
to be in the middle, that one.
678
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,200
That's definitely got to
be in the middle.
679
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:01,120
Aw, I love them.
680
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:03,600
Happy Anniversary.
Thank you, darling.
681
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:04,600
Very special.
682
00:37:14,240 --> 00:37:17,040
With the cocktail cream tea
out of the way,
683
00:37:17,040 --> 00:37:20,720
the catering team now turn their
attention to the evening's menu..
684
00:37:20,720 --> 00:37:24,080
I love mayonnaise - garlic
mayonnaise - mmm. OK.
685
00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:25,920
Chips. Cool.
686
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,560
..one that not only celebrates Jenny
and Steve's extensive travels,
687
00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:33,200
but also some of
the local specialities.
688
00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,080
It's black garlic.
689
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,520
That is great. Isn't it cool?
Squidge it in there.
690
00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:39,000
I know - isn't it awesome?
691
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:40,560
And this hopefully is going to make
692
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:42,200
the mayonnaise completely black.
693
00:37:42,200 --> 00:37:44,560
Have you ever seen
black mayonnaise before?
694
00:37:44,560 --> 00:37:47,000
Isn't it going to be weird?
No but I have seen it white.
695
00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:49,360
This is exactly how
it normally works
696
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,720
when I'm in the kitchen with
Daddy as well -
697
00:37:51,720 --> 00:37:54,040
is that the young ones do
all the work...
698
00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,760
And I walk around looking good.
699
00:37:55,760 --> 00:37:58,080
..and he walks around trying
to chop quickly.
700
00:38:01,960 --> 00:38:03,920
Show me your muscles. Yeah.
701
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,160
Get those guns out, big boy.
702
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,480
Smash them up.
703
00:38:06,480 --> 00:38:08,240
Pop them in there.
704
00:38:08,240 --> 00:38:10,760
Now, mash it with that,
and see what it smells like.
705
00:38:10,760 --> 00:38:12,640
Are you ready? Here we go.
706
00:38:12,640 --> 00:38:14,920
Smell that. Smell that. Wow.
707
00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,240
Well done.
708
00:38:16,240 --> 00:38:17,360
Oh, Jesus!
709
00:38:18,400 --> 00:38:19,640
Doucement. Doucement.
710
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,040
Just get them
all out of the bag for me.
711
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:31,800
With so many friends and family
coming to the party,
712
00:38:31,800 --> 00:38:35,000
Angel wants to ensure they get
a photo of everyone
713
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:36,640
for her parents' album...
714
00:38:36,640 --> 00:38:39,360
We want different sized balloons -
715
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:41,680
we want big, we want small.
716
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,680
..so she's setting up a
mini-photo booth in the dining room.
717
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:47,160
We're going to have
photographs on there later,
718
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:50,360
and Mummy wants to do a little
balloon garland.
719
00:38:53,200 --> 00:38:55,560
As there isn't long
until their guests arrive,
720
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,760
she's hoping Dorothy might lend
a hand decorating it.
721
00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:00,640
Mamma - this now?
722
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:02,200
Absolutely brilliant.
723
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,160
Oh, this is perfect.
724
00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,040
This is teamwork, isn't it?
725
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:09,360
You pass me a balloon,
I'll blow it up and put it on.
726
00:39:12,080 --> 00:39:13,080
Aaargh!
727
00:39:14,200 --> 00:39:16,480
Stay focused. Come on, babe,
stay focused.
728
00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,280
Dorothy may have run out of puff,
but the garland is finished,
729
00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:28,000
and just in time.
730
00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,880
That's lovely, innit?
731
00:39:29,880 --> 00:39:33,440
That's that done - tick! Next.
732
00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,520
By six o'clock, not only has
the rain stopped,
733
00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:43,000
but the party's about to begin.
734
00:39:50,720 --> 00:39:52,320
It feels like 30 degrees now,
735
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,600
and it's been raining all day,
736
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:56,000
and now it's boiling.
737
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,120
50 years worth of family and friends
738
00:40:01,120 --> 00:40:04,000
reunited for one
very special evening.
739
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,720
Sharing your memories.
740
00:40:10,720 --> 00:40:12,320
Oh, wow!
741
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:13,840
Share your memories.
742
00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:17,520
Aw. That's amazing.
That's fantastic.
743
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,360
What a lovely thing.
744
00:40:19,360 --> 00:40:20,760
Wow.
745
00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:29,680
In the oven, please.
746
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:35,920
Now everyone's arrived, Dick
and James, with Arthur supervising,
747
00:40:35,920 --> 00:40:39,720
prepare to serve the first of eight
completely different dishes.
748
00:40:39,720 --> 00:40:43,000
I said to do make things
all around the world.
749
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,880
You did, and look at us.
750
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:46,560
We're all over the place.
751
00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:52,440
Over the next few hours, Jenny
and Steve's guests are treated to
752
00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:55,560
a feast of flavours from India,
to the East End.
753
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,840
We're good. We're really
hot on this.
754
00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:01,040
Make it so that it's like a flower.
755
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:03,800
Don't be shy of the peppercorn
sauce - Steve loves it.
756
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:07,400
So, tandoori chicken has been fried,
been marinaded,
757
00:41:07,400 --> 00:41:11,480
lovely bit of haddock that's
been beer-battered.
758
00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:16,280
Arancini, black mayonnaise, salt and
vinegar pepper and home-made tartar.
759
00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,160
Yeah. You'd eat those,
wouldn't you? Yeah.
760
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:19,160
Service!
761
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:21,280
Service!
762
00:41:21,280 --> 00:41:23,000
Tandoori chicken.
763
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:26,360
There is one dish, though, that has
a lot to live up to -
764
00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,320
the steak au poivre
that Jenny and Steve ate
765
00:41:29,320 --> 00:41:31,760
on their wedding day 50 years ago.
766
00:41:31,760 --> 00:41:36,920
We both ordered steak au poivre
and it was this round, that thick,
767
00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:40,760
and it was covered in the poivre,
the peppercorn sauce... Oh, lovely.
768
00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:43,040
..and there was nothing
left on that plate.
769
00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:46,600
The beef is gorgeous.
770
00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:47,640
It's not overcooked.
771
00:41:47,640 --> 00:41:48,720
It's lovely, darling.
772
00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:56,320
It was a hard menu -
they've travelled the world,
773
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,440
and eaten some brilliant food,
so, you know...
774
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,200
And they've had memories attached
to all of these things,
775
00:42:02,200 --> 00:42:04,880
and now they've got new memories
to attach to them all.
776
00:42:19,960 --> 00:42:22,800
As soon as the whole menu's
been served...
777
00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,200
Yeah! High five!
778
00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,720
..it's time for James to leave.
779
00:42:27,720 --> 00:42:31,080
Work calls, and the last ferry back
to Britain won't wait for him.
780
00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:37,920
Right, come on, you - you've got
a ferry, no partying.
781
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:39,640
Are you on? I'm on. Bye-bye, James!
782
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,400
The anniversary party,
though, carries on...
783
00:42:50,600 --> 00:42:51,760
Don't drop it.
784
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,440
..and soon its time for Angel and
her brother Paul to present
785
00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,800
Jenny and Steve with
a very special gift.
786
00:42:58,800 --> 00:43:02,120
Is something going to jump out
of it, a jack-in-a-box or something?
787
00:43:06,000 --> 00:43:08,280
Oh, my giddy aunt!
788
00:43:09,520 --> 00:43:11,280
Oh, I can't believe...
789
00:43:12,640 --> 00:43:14,080
Is this the one?
790
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:15,080
Look.
791
00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:18,400
Do you remember this?
792
00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:21,920
That is amazing.
793
00:43:21,920 --> 00:43:23,480
Well... Oh, you two.
794
00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:25,280
I have to say... Thank you so much.
795
00:43:25,280 --> 00:43:27,040
That was the biggest surprise ever.
796
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,840
Mum and Dad, thank you for being
wonderful parents,
797
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:34,800
and incredible grandparents.
798
00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:37,080
You taught us how to be happy,
799
00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:40,200
to be open, loving and caring,
800
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:43,000
and we are who we are
because of you two,
801
00:43:43,000 --> 00:43:44,560
even the bad bits, so...!
802
00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,120
We feel so very lucky to have you
all here...
803
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:56,560
but all of you at some time
804
00:43:56,560 --> 00:44:01,600
have laughingly asked how I have
managed to put up with Stephen.
805
00:44:03,840 --> 00:44:05,520
I simply love you, darling.
806
00:44:06,680 --> 00:44:07,920
Ahhh.
807
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:12,320
We're so lucky to be living this
dream in France with Angela and Dick
808
00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:15,760
who have done
all of this today for us.
809
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,400
Thank you, darlings.
810
00:44:17,400 --> 00:44:19,160
We can't thank you enough.
811
00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,920
And I'm a very proud mum,
mum-in-law and grandma.
812
00:44:25,920 --> 00:44:27,160
Thank you all so much.
813
00:44:37,400 --> 00:44:39,720
Once everyone's dried their eyes,
814
00:44:39,720 --> 00:44:42,720
Jenny and Steve's party continues
through the night.
815
00:44:44,720 --> 00:44:47,160
To Jenny and Steve! Woo!
816
00:45:03,480 --> 00:45:06,800
Calm has descended upon the chateau,
817
00:45:06,800 --> 00:45:10,360
and, with the anniversary
celebrations deemed a success,
818
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,840
Dick and Angel can finally relax
819
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:15,480
and even enjoy a moment together.
820
00:45:15,480 --> 00:45:17,800
Hide and seek with a bottle of rose.
821
00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:19,520
In fact, we won't tell anyone
where we are.
822
00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:21,280
We're good for the next
couple of hours here.
823
00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:31,360
Thank you for my flower garden,
824
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,920
Mr Strawbridge - it's stunning.
825
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:36,280
It's just tall enough
so nobody knows we're here.
826
00:45:36,280 --> 00:45:38,920
I think there's a very good chance
of a glass of wine and a sleep.
827
00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:42,280
Sleep! You're such a romantic.
828
00:45:42,280 --> 00:45:45,040
I'm loving the sound of the insects.
You are - you're soppy. I am soppy.
829
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:49,400
STRIMMER SOUNDS
830
00:45:51,120 --> 00:45:53,000
We're being romantic.
What are you doing?
831
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:55,520
DICK AND ANGEL LAUGH
832
00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:04,440
Next time...
833
00:46:04,440 --> 00:46:07,080
Oh, Dorothy,
you're a born beekeeper.
834
00:46:07,080 --> 00:46:08,760
..there's a hive of activity.
835
00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:11,280
Wowee - that's full of honey.
836
00:46:11,280 --> 00:46:13,600
The whole family gets to work...
837
00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,080
Arthur? Pass me
a mole wrench, please.
838
00:46:16,080 --> 00:46:17,600
..bigging up a bijou bus...
839
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:21,520
And I like it.
840
00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:25,520
..for exciting escapades.
841
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:26,960
Our first adventure.
842
00:46:30,640 --> 00:46:33,640
