Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:02,640
Whoo!
2
00:00:02,680 --> 00:00:04,680
..are getting ever more lavish...
3
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:07,840
Oh, my goodness me,
that is incredible.
4
00:00:07,880 --> 00:00:12,760
..but the cost of living also means
more budget British breaks.
5
00:00:12,800 --> 00:00:16,040
That's impossible.
6
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:19,880
Why would rich people come here?
It's an adventure, though, innit?
7
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:23,320
Eurgh! I just got a massive whiff.
8
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:26,760
..really want to rub shoulders
with the bottom 10%?
9
00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,640
Oh! This is really a budget holiday.
10
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:32,800
Eurgh!
11
00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:34,400
..to luxury villas.
12
00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,640
This is insane.
13
00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,760
What happens when people from
either side of the wealth divide...
14
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,360
Brake!
15
00:00:42,400 --> 00:00:44,840
Argh!
Wow!
16
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,880
..activities...
THEY EXCLAIM
17
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:49,360
My wedding didn't cost that.
18
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,960
That is like a deposit on a house,
isn't it?
19
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:54,440
Who will have
a life-changing experience?
20
00:00:54,480 --> 00:00:57,040
I felt the best I've ever felt
in my life.
21
00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,160
Ha-ha!
I can't stop crying now.
22
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:01,920
Janet, will you marry me?
23
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:04,200
And who will check out early?
24
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,320
This is not a holiday.
Get me out of here.
25
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:15,520
Leafy, upmarket Primrose Hill
in North London
26
00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:18,960
is home
to 76-year-old millionaire Lyn.
27
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:23,400
All my life,
I have hated that B word - budget.
28
00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:27,680
Never done it, don't like it,
no thank you, not ever.
29
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:31,600
Lyn made a fortune from her own
recruitment business in the '70s.
30
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:34,480
I bought a Ferrari.
I bought five Ferraris in all.
31
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,320
At one stage, I had one for
the summer and one for the winter.
32
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,640
The fitness fanatic
with her own personal trainer
33
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,160
is used to living the high life.
34
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,640
If I made five million,
I'd probably spent five and a half.
35
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,600
I love life, I love going out
to the best restaurants.
36
00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:51,360
'I've enjoyed holidays.
Life is short.'
37
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:53,160
Lyn likes to splash her cash
38
00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,200
on eye-wateringly expensive
breaks abroad.
39
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,800
The perfect holiday for me
40
00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:02,200
would be somewhere called
the BodyHoliday in Saint Lucia.
41
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:06,520
11 days was something like...
would've been £15,000.
42
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,400
It doesn't include
champagne or lobster or fine wines.
43
00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:11,360
Her close friend Hugh is
44
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,840
a 46-year-old successful
restaurant PR.
45
00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:16,640
I know I'm very fortunate I have,
you know,
46
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:19,000
a very healthy level
of disposable income.
47
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,280
'We're comfortably off,
I don't hide that.
48
00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,640
'Money is important.
You know, money is an enabler.'
49
00:02:24,680 --> 00:02:27,480
It is lovely. I like nice clothes,
I like nice food, I love to travel.
50
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:29,800
Travelling... in comfort, you know,
51
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,760
in business class
or even first class.
52
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,480
Ooh!
Thank you.
53
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:36,680
Lyny, lovely to see you, as always.
And you.
54
00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,040
Cheers to life.
55
00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:43,080
When it comes to pursuing good food,
for these two, money is no object.
56
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:45,360
Paris for lunch? Oh, yes, of course.
I've been to Paris.
57
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:48,360
Yeah, I saw... For lunch?
58
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:49,760
Normal behaviour (!)
59
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,240
Budget food tops
a long list of worries
60
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,400
about going on a cheap holiday.
61
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:55,880
'My nightmare would be camping.'
62
00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:59,840
I need to be able to sleep...
well...
63
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:04,960
and I can't do that on an air bed
or even a single bed, particularly.
64
00:03:05,000 --> 00:03:08,120
Well, as long as I can take
my tongs and my hairdryer and...
65
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,120
Yeah. There might not be...
I'm taking my silk...
66
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,240
What if we're off grid,
and there's no electricity
67
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,760
for your tongs and your hairdryer?
68
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,040
Well, you're gonna have trouble with
your phone, then, aren't you? Yeah.
69
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,240
So, why would these two food-loving,
70
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,440
luxury-living friends
want to go on a budget break?
71
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:25,640
I have been
in a bit of an ivory tower,
72
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:30,040
so, yeah, it could be a wake-up call
or it could be reassurance that I...
73
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,440
I do walk around with my eyes open.
74
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:35,480
I'm doing this holiday
because I think it will challenge me
75
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,720
and take me out of my comfort zone.
76
00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:41,600
50 miles north in Bedford,
77
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:46,880
33-year-old Keisha and 34-year-old
Merrit are long-time pals.
78
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,320
We've known each other for,
like, 20-something years,
79
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,680
since Year 9 at school
so quite a while.
80
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,000
I think everybody would say,
who knows Merrit, team leader.
81
00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,160
Organises everything,
like, at a party,
82
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:02,160
she'll go round tidying up
when people are still partying.
83
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,800
This is THE team leader.
84
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,040
Keisha and Merrit both have
low-paid office jobs
85
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,520
and struggle to make ends meet.
86
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,360
I feel like over the past recent
years, I've gone, like, a step back.
87
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,360
Bills have gone up,
shopping's gone up.
88
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:19,280
Everything's, like,
really expensive now.
89
00:04:19,320 --> 00:04:22,120
I feel like
I work a lot just to live,
90
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,040
just to do the bare minimum.
There's no time for luxury.
91
00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:28,840
To bring in extra money, Keisha
started a cake-making business.
92
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,800
It helps, like a second income, and
I find it quite relaxing as well,
93
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:35,480
decorating a cake, seeing it through
from start to finish.
94
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:36,520
'Yeah, I love it.'
95
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,440
But for now, when they take a break,
it's bargain basement.
96
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,320
Our last holiday
was cheap and cheerful.
97
00:04:43,360 --> 00:04:45,960
We stayed in Botany Bay.
98
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:48,520
Like, food, just pure junk food
for the whole holiday. Yeah.
99
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:50,400
I don't remember having, like,
a nice dinner.
100
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:52,000
No, we never went for a meal.
101
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,720
While the friends know what
they want from a rich holiday...
102
00:04:55,760 --> 00:05:01,360
A dream Merrit holiday would be
an amazing hotel that has a pool.
103
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:02,920
'I would just love to switch off.
104
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,000
'That, to me,
would be a dream holiday.'
105
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,800
Relax by the pool,
we'll get dinner, get food,
106
00:05:07,840 --> 00:05:10,240
and then, yeah,
just have a calm day.
107
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:13,720
They also have a long list
of what wouldn't be worth the cash.
108
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:17,120
Hiking. I just don't wanna walk
for ages for no reason.
109
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,320
You know, like, wellness retreats,
things like that.
110
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:21,480
'Oh, yeah. I could try...
I could try that.
111
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:23,560
Even the thought, though,
of somebody, like,
112
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,080
doing massages and stuff like that
on holiday,
113
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,840
or, like, it has to be silent
and, "Let's meditate,"
114
00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,600
and just left
with your own thoughts,
115
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,200
that sounds like hell.
Yeah.
116
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:36,360
For Keisha and Merrit,
a well-earned break is overdue.
117
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:42,600
We work too much. It's really hard
to find the time to actually be,
118
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,000
like, just to chill and to relax.
119
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:48,880
And Keisha is also hoping
the week will inspire her to grow
120
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,920
her cake-baking enterprise.
121
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:54,800
Keisha Cakes is really something
that can be really big.
122
00:05:54,840 --> 00:05:57,360
I think
it's got so much potential.
123
00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:00,440
I feel like if
I am able to put a bit more into it,
124
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:03,920
then definitely, I can...
I can make it a ladder up.
125
00:06:03,960 --> 00:06:09,480
But I just need, like, the time,
the money to put more into it.
126
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:17,040
The big question is where are
both pairs of friends going?
127
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,680
All is about to be revealed
128
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:22,440
because they've been given
envelopes with their destinations.
129
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:24,120
OK let's do it.
We're in this together.
130
00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:25,480
You can't look.
131
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,200
Shall we pretend
we're at the Oscars?
132
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,240
"You're going to..."
"You are going to..."
133
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:30,280
Duh-duh-duh...
134
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:32,920
THEY SHOUT
AND LAUGH
135
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:38,240
"A static caravan in Kent
to explore the Garden of England."
136
00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:42,240
Luxury-lovers Lyn and Hugh
137
00:06:42,280 --> 00:06:44,840
will be staying
within reach of the Kent coast
138
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,160
at the Dog & Duck Leisure Park
in Plucks Gutter,
139
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:52,560
squeezing themselves
into one of its 120 units.
140
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:56,960
Over 500,000 people in the UK stay
in caravans every year,
141
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:00,120
and they're the perfect digs
for penny-watching Brits.
142
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,520
"Comfortable shoes."
OK, trainers, then.
143
00:07:02,560 --> 00:07:05,320
"Bucket and spade."
Don't own one.
144
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,120
"Sun hat."
I've got a nice baseball cap. Yep.
145
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,400
THEY SQUEAL SOFTLY
146
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:10,760
"You're going to..."
Ooh.
147
00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:13,520
"..a luxury chalet."
Oh, wow.
148
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,120
Cah-moh... Cha-mee?
Cham-mon-ee?
149
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,480
France.
150
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,760
Millions of well-off Brits visit
the French Alps every year,
151
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:26,480
but Chamonix is a favourite
with the super rich and famous.
152
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:32,360
Keisha and Merrit will be staying
in the £3 million AIKOA chalet,
153
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:37,520
with 300 square metres of
living space for a wellness holiday.
154
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,160
We need
warm clothes, walking shoes...
155
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,080
What for?
156
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,320
A hike.
"Swimwear", that's good.
157
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:46,480
"Good appetite"
and "a head for heights".
158
00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:48,280
Ah!
Oh, I'm gonna love this.
159
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,640
Day one.
LYN LAUGHS
160
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:53,640
Has that bag got your pillows in?
Yeah.
161
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:58,880
Both sets of friends are off to see
how the other half holiday.
162
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,360
Oh, my gosh.
I can't wait.
163
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:06,280
Oh, my gosh.
I can't wait.
164
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,280
I'm excited. I'm a little wary
about the caravan site.
165
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:12,960
Yeah.
I don't know what it's gonna be like
166
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:15,720
being dropped
into a fixed community.
167
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:18,320
It's not something
I would choose to do.
168
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,440
Is it really just us?
I still can't get my head around.
169
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:24,320
Neither can I.
I never thought of that.
170
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,880
Having more money means you don't
have to a deal with people. Mm.
171
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:29,360
Taking off from Gatwick,
172
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:33,840
it's a short 90-minute flight
before Keisha and Merrit
173
00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:37,200
get a first glimpse
of their Alpine retreat.
174
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,680
This is huge.
Is it just for us?
175
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:41,760
I don't know.
Shouldn't we have to check in?
176
00:08:43,520 --> 00:08:45,840
Oh, my gosh.
177
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:50,280
This stylish eco-chalet nestled
at the foot of the French Alps
178
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:54,520
has a sauna,
hot tub and private yoga space.
179
00:08:54,560 --> 00:08:59,640
Inside are six minimalist bedrooms
with en suites, cinema room,
180
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:03,400
pool and an ultra-modern,
open-plan living-dining area.
181
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,120
Oh, my gosh.
Good views. Wow.
182
00:09:07,160 --> 00:09:08,480
Is this just for us?
183
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:12,760
Wow. I can't...
I think that's a sauna down there.
184
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,320
I can't get over this.
I love it. Champagne as well.
185
00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,400
Some Taittinger.
Oh, my gosh, this is beautiful.
186
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:20,960
This is insane.
187
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,480
The view of Mont Blanc
from the chalet balcony
188
00:09:23,520 --> 00:09:25,760
is truly five-star.
189
00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:27,200
This is a beauty.
190
00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,480
Can't complain about the view.
I have no words. This is, like...
191
00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:34,200
This is too much almost.
Scenic?
192
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,480
This... This could be too much.
Mm.
193
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:39,800
Meanwhile, in Kent...
194
00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,800
There we go,
there's the sign for Plucks Gutter.
195
00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:46,600
Lyn and Hugh are approaching
their budget caravan accommodation.
196
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:49,400
Three-six-one, isn't that great?
Our own personal parking space.
197
00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:50,600
LYN LAUGHS
198
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,120
I like it. It's nice.
199
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,600
Wow!
Wow! OK.
200
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,360
You've probably stayed
in hotel suites bigger than this.
201
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,160
I've stayed
in rooms bigger than this.
202
00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:06,600
THEY LAUGH
203
00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,280
OK. OK.
204
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:13,240
Erm...
That's...
205
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:15,760
You can push them together.
Honestly, I'm fine having this.
206
00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,400
The main thing is... The main thing
with me is the length.
207
00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,200
I need to be able to...
208
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:24,880
It's fine.
Yeah, I'll push these together.
209
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,560
Oh, wow. This is bigger.
That feels like a cupboard.
210
00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:30,240
Yeah, yeah.
211
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:34,240
It's a serious downsize
for Lyn and Hugh's usual lodgings,
212
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:36,640
so to who do they owe the pleasure?
213
00:10:36,680 --> 00:10:40,280
Time for everyone to find out
whose holiday they have inherited.
214
00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:43,440
Wow, they're gorgeous.
Wow, gorgeous ladies.
215
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:45,000
They're obviously super close.
Yeah.
216
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:46,640
That sort of hand on the shoulder,
217
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:49,560
there's that very easy, natural
chemistry between them. Yeah.
218
00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:51,920
Gorgeous dress. Wow.
Love that green on her.
219
00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:54,000
KEISHA CLEARS THROAT
220
00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:57,000
Aw.
That's nice.
221
00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:59,440
Oh, bless them. Two friends, maybe?
Yeah, I think so.
222
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,000
Yeah, it'd be nice to know
what they do.
223
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,160
Wow. They look like they're having
a good time, though. Yeah.
224
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,640
Lyn and Hugh aren't only swapping
accommodation,
225
00:11:08,680 --> 00:11:10,000
they also have to take on
226
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,440
Keisha and Merrit's
holiday allowance for the week.
227
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,000
OK, £100.
228
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,040
Well...
229
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:21,920
Yeah, that's dinner for one.
230
00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:24,840
Is that... Is that for four days?
231
00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:27,640
I don't think it's quite sinking in.
232
00:11:27,680 --> 00:11:31,600
This is all the money we have
for breakfast, lunch and dinner
233
00:11:31,640 --> 00:11:34,480
and our activities,
anything we want to do...
234
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,400
..between now and Friday.
Yep.
235
00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:41,000
We have £100.
Yep.
236
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:44,360
That'll be a challenge.
237
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,480
Erm...
I've paid more for a T-shirt.
238
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,880
THEY LAUGH
239
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:55,280
Coming up, Merrit struggles
with the high life on holiday...
240
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,160
I just keep thinking
she's gonna strangle me
241
00:11:57,200 --> 00:11:58,680
and how long
is she gonna strangle me?
242
00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:02,080
..while Lyn and Hugh have a wobble
on a budget bike ride.
243
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:06,920
Argh!
244
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:15,720
A couple of
wealthy, luxury-loving friends...
245
00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:18,720
Beautiful. Lovely to see you,
as always. And you.
246
00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,680
..and two buddies
who normally travel on a budget...
247
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,280
Let's go! Oh, my gosh.
I can't wait.
248
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:26,000
..are swapping holidays...
249
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,080
Ahh!
250
00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,360
"A static caravan in Kent."
251
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:32,720
..to discover if...
252
00:12:32,760 --> 00:12:35,720
I have no words.
This is, like... This is too much.
253
00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:37,480
..you need to spend a fortune...
254
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,840
I stayed in rooms bigger than this.
255
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,120
..for a fulfilling getaway.
256
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:45,840
Champagne as well.
Oh, my God, this is beautiful.
257
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,800
And in both locations,
258
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,600
diary cams have been installed to
record their most private thoughts.
259
00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,200
The bed situation is interesting.
260
00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:55,320
I don't know if my feet will get
cold. We'll see yet.
261
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:57,520
I am a little bit longer
than the bed.
262
00:12:57,560 --> 00:13:01,440
I just... I just can't believe
how... I just can't believe it.
263
00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,480
There is just so much to do.
264
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,440
There's mountains all around,
it's lovely.
265
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,240
I did not expect it to be like this
at all.
266
00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:11,200
Day two in Kent.
267
00:13:11,240 --> 00:13:14,160
Did you sleep OK?
Yeah, great. Did you?
268
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:16,080
Yeah, all right. Not too bad.
269
00:13:16,120 --> 00:13:17,840
Hugh and Lyn, who would normally pay
270
00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,280
£500 a night to stay
in five-star hotels,
271
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,520
have slept in a static caravan
for the first time in their lives.
272
00:13:24,560 --> 00:13:26,320
I don't fit particularly well.
273
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,640
I pushed
the two single beds together
274
00:13:28,680 --> 00:13:30,400
to sort of make a double bed.
275
00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:33,280
I still don't
quite completely fit in it.
276
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:37,760
Hugh I don't think slept so well
because the bedroom is so teeny.
277
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,320
You know, he's 6'3",
and the bedroom's barely that.
278
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:44,640
And a noisy four-legged neighbour
isn't helping either.
279
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:46,760
It's like a car alarm,
fucking Chihuahuas.
280
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,320
HIGH-PITCHED BARKING,
SHE LAUGHS
281
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:50,040
If that fucking thing
doesn't shut up,
282
00:13:50,080 --> 00:13:51,720
it's gonna have an accident.
283
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:56,840
Terminal.
284
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:58,440
HIGH-PITCHED BARKING
CONTINUES
285
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,480
I could really do
without any more dog noise.
286
00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,440
You know,
that high-pitched "yap, yap, yap".
287
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,080
YAPPING CONTINUES
288
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:08,720
Lyn can't abide a budget
289
00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,840
and is already breaking the rules
with smuggled items from home.
290
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:16,600
Lyn, you realise
this truffle butter was £26.60?
291
00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:19,400
I know.
I didn't want it to go to waste.
292
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:22,320
We're meant to be going without...
But it's just a few essentials.
293
00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:27,880
Lyn has gone crazy.
She brought a big bag full of stuff.
294
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,800
Truffle butter,
absolutely essential (!)
295
00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,800
I did bring a few things from home
cos I hoped we were self-catering,
296
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:38,400
so maybe the truffle butter
was a bit over-the-top.
297
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:41,560
I don't think I bought too much.
I wish I'd bought a lot more.
298
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:45,400
Are you sure?
This is Fortnum & Mason marmalade.
299
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:47,840
Could've brought...
The salmon.
300
00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:50,200
Could've brought a side of salmon.
301
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:53,040
Oh, my gosh.
302
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,000
..there's no contraband in sight.
303
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,040
Nice out here.
It's beautiful.
304
00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,440
The holiday is all expenses paid,
305
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,040
including
a lavish champagne breakfast
306
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,600
for Keisha and Merrit
to start the day.
307
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:07,560
A cheers going on.
Yeah.
308
00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:09,960
What shall we cheers to?
More of this.
309
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:11,280
Amen!
310
00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,360
Cheers.
311
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,960
The size, the sheer size
of the place blew me away.
312
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:17,720
Kitchen with an island, of course.
313
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:20,800
Like, the island is about
as big as the kitchen I have now.
314
00:15:20,840 --> 00:15:23,840
The people that come here
have the craziest amount of money.
315
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,720
Both pairs of friends are swapping
activities for the week,
316
00:15:30,760 --> 00:15:34,440
and the moment has arrived
to find out what's in store.
317
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:39,400
Ooh, OK. Alpine hiking.
Afternoon ac... Oh, no.
318
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,920
Hopefully, it's at an incline.
It doesn't even say how far.
319
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:43,520
Cycling.
320
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:46,400
Oh, I haven't cycled
since I was seven.
321
00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:50,360
OK, that's the good one.
An afternoon at a luxury spa.
322
00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:52,320
And we both get a massage
at the same time.
323
00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,680
Oh, I don't know about that.
None of these are looking too good.
324
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,600
And bingo.
325
00:15:57,640 --> 00:15:59,360
OK, you might win some money.
326
00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,040
OK, that all sounds really fun.
327
00:16:02,080 --> 00:16:05,120
Yeah, well, part from the cycling.
I mean, really, I don't cycle.
328
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,480
"Pastries galore!"
329
00:16:07,520 --> 00:16:09,160
We love a sweet treat
so should be fun.
330
00:16:11,000 --> 00:16:15,280
In Kent,
with just £100 for the week,
331
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,800
shopping for food with rule-breaking
Lyn could be a challenge.
332
00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,240
The thing is,
food is so important to us...
333
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,080
Yeah.
..isn't it?
334
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:24,400
Yeah.
And eating well.
335
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:28,040
And I think
I can cope with being bored...
336
00:16:28,080 --> 00:16:31,360
and doing fewer activities,
but I can't cope with eating crap...
337
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:33,200
No, me neither.
..and being hungry.
338
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,960
So we want fruit, veg...
339
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Pasta.
..butter.
340
00:16:37,040 --> 00:16:39,520
We went to the local shop,
341
00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,280
but most of the food there
was ultra-processed
342
00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:44,840
in packets and things, and that's
really not what Hugh and I eat.
343
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:49,680
Lyn would normally think nothing
of spending £200 on just one meal.
344
00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:51,520
Ooh. Can we afford strawberries?
345
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,040
Well, let's see.
Shall we have a look?
346
00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:54,880
But, like, what are our priorities?
347
00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:59,000
So, I think Hugh's in charge
of the budget. It's his mission.
348
00:16:59,040 --> 00:17:01,840
When I pick something up,
he looks at me and says,
349
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:05,400
"We haven't got the money for it."
350
00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,880
I still don't think it's actually
registered with her that...
351
00:17:10,360 --> 00:17:11,920
..that money
is all the money we've got,
352
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,000
and that money could... run out.
353
00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:15,560
I have to have eggs for breakfast.
354
00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,000
They don't have... We'll get eggs.
355
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,080
Eggs are something
you can get everywhere.
356
00:17:19,120 --> 00:17:21,680
I don't think we need to spend
over the odds. No, OK.
357
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:23,480
I'm not saying
those are too expensive.
358
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:26,320
I think £2 for local eggs
is incredibly good price. Yeah.
359
00:17:26,360 --> 00:17:29,440
But it's not a price we can afford,
watching every penny. Yeah.
360
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:31,840
It's a scramble to find
affordable eggs.
361
00:17:31,880 --> 00:17:34,200
Thankfully, the countryside
is full of surprises.
362
00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:35,360
Fridge.
Ha!
363
00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:37,560
Opposite the riding school.
In the middle of nowhere.
364
00:17:37,600 --> 00:17:40,440
Look at those eggs!
Aren't they beautiful?
365
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,520
Oh, this is
exactly what we're after.
366
00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:44,480
Oh, but it was so quirky.
367
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,640
And you go to the fridge,
and you open it up,
368
00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:49,400
and there's the vegetables
they've got.
369
00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,640
And... there was a space for eggs.
370
00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,560
6.20? Great, thank you.
Thank you.
371
00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:55,080
Can we do it for six quid?
372
00:17:55,120 --> 00:17:57,520
Don't ask, don't get.
373
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,360
I think I can honestly say
I've never, in my entire life,
374
00:18:01,400 --> 00:18:04,040
been to a fridge
by the side of the road
375
00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:05,600
for fresh produce before.
376
00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,840
In France...
Keisha and Merrit are about to learn
377
00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,400
how the rich find inner peace...
378
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,680
OK, so, we will start in child pose.
379
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:19,640
..with their own £90-an-hour
private yoga session.
380
00:18:19,680 --> 00:18:21,760
Yeah,
I wasn't really looking forward
381
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,800
to doing yoga and meditation.
382
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,120
But... yeah, well, OK,
let's give this a go.
383
00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:30,160
How did you get so low down?
384
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,080
So let your head be heavy.
385
00:18:36,360 --> 00:18:38,400
I don't mind a bit of yoga.
386
00:18:38,440 --> 00:18:41,400
I'm really not as active
as I should be.
387
00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,200
It was yoga with a view.
388
00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:46,440
Just not practical, you know?
Yes.
389
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:48,120
Inhale in height now.
390
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,640
Merrit may need more convincing
than Keisha
391
00:18:50,680 --> 00:18:53,240
that these kind of posh activities
are value for money.
392
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:55,160
Rich people...
393
00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:59,280
Honestly, I don't know what
they have to worry and stress about.
394
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:01,320
So many times, my brain went to
395
00:19:01,360 --> 00:19:03,560
"OK, first of the month's coming up,
gotta pay a bill."
396
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:05,040
She's like, "Inhale." I'm like...
397
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:06,080
"OK, cool.
398
00:19:06,120 --> 00:19:07,840
"Then once I've done that,
shopping list."
399
00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:09,720
You'll be thinking about
things you need to do.
400
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:11,440
It seems the more money you have,
401
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,120
the harder it is
for you to do nothing.
402
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,640
Lift your hips,
and go on your fours, down dog.
403
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,720
Inhale, left hand on the sky.
404
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:23,560
To have somebody come to you
where you're staying, to do yoga,
405
00:19:23,600 --> 00:19:25,760
that's definitely something
for rich people.
406
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:30,280
Inhale. Push your knees on the floor
and your chest in.
407
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:33,640
Namaste.
Thank you. Namaste.
408
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,760
I'm not much of a cyclist,
409
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:46,360
but it could be nice
for me to discover... a town.
410
00:19:46,400 --> 00:19:48,600
Hugh is on a mission
to keep to the budget,
411
00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,520
but the first activity means
renting a tandem bike.
412
00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:52,840
LYN LAUGHS
413
00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,720
There is literally
a bicycle made for two.
414
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,400
Oof. £30 for a day, though.
415
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,760
A snip at £30 for the day
416
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,040
but still nearly a third of the £100
they have for the week.
417
00:20:04,080 --> 00:20:05,720
Should we ask
if we could maybe take...?
418
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,640
Cos if we just want to, like, ride
it up and down the harbour arm...
419
00:20:08,680 --> 00:20:11,040
Yeah, sounds good. As long
as I'm on the back, that's a deal.
420
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,640
What, so me doing all the work?
Yeah.
421
00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:14,720
Oh, now,
this looks like a friendly man.
422
00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,360
We were eyeing up
this lovely tandem of yours. Yes?
423
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:21,560
But we're on a very tight budget,
and £30 is way out of budget.
424
00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:22,960
Do you think there's any way
425
00:20:23,000 --> 00:20:24,680
it wouldn't be taking
the mickey too much.
426
00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,120
Do you think we could
maybe take it out for half an hour?
427
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:28,600
Yeah, we can do that. Not a problem.
428
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,920
OK, what, so, like, maybe...
three quid for half an hour?
429
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:33,640
No.
But it's £30 for a day.
430
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,600
I'm sure a fiver is fine.
431
00:20:35,640 --> 00:20:37,680
Fiver?
Yeah. OK.
432
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:38,760
No worries.
433
00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:40,800
Agh!
Ooh, there we go.
434
00:20:40,840 --> 00:20:42,200
I've only got this one!
435
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:44,000
Wow. Huh. Uh-huh.
436
00:20:44,040 --> 00:20:45,360
Ooh.
Argh!
437
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:48,200
Yeah, that's what we expected.
438
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,320
But it's more dangerous
than it looks.
439
00:20:51,360 --> 00:20:54,360
All right, Lyny, helmets on.
Wow.
440
00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,520
This is starting to sound
horribly serious.
441
00:20:57,560 --> 00:21:00,880
OK, ready to go.
OK. And have you got your pedals...?
442
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:04,360
I've got my feet on the pedals.
I'm ready to go. Agh! Yep.
443
00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,840
OK, need to go forward slightly...
444
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:08,520
LYN SCREAMS,
LAUGHS
445
00:21:08,560 --> 00:21:14,000
I can't believe that Hugh and I
actually got on a tandem today.
446
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:17,800
I screamed non-stop.
It was really scary.
447
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,520
Stand clear.
448
00:21:19,560 --> 00:21:22,760
I would stay very clear.
Oh... relax.
449
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,360
Which way? Do you wanna go straight
ahead, or do you wanna go...
450
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:27,960
Let's take a left, shall we?
..I don't know where it's prettier.
451
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:32,600
Lyn doesn't like to show,
erm, vulnerability.
452
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,280
She doesn't like to show
that she is scared. She doesn't...
453
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:38,640
She'd rather just... say no
to something.
454
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,680
Ooh!
455
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:42,040
Whoops. Whoop...
456
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,560
Here we go.
457
00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,480
The budget break
has only just begun,
458
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,880
but it's already having
a deep impact on Lyn and Hugh.
459
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,200
For Lyn to actually do
something that she's scared of
460
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,800
is real progress for her,
so I'm proud of her.
461
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:57,320
What are you do...? Are you moving?
462
00:21:57,360 --> 00:21:58,560
Yeah, no.
Can we...? Ooh.
463
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,200
Take this corner very slowly
cos I'm not good with corners. Ooh!
464
00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:04,480
It's all right, it's all right,
I've got it.
465
00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,800
I feel like I'm possibly reliving
my teenage years,
466
00:22:07,840 --> 00:22:09,840
but in my head,
I'm not that much older anyway.
467
00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:12,080
Argh, ha-ha!
468
00:22:12,120 --> 00:22:17,760
It was crazy, it was dangerous,
but... we survived.
469
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,120
I'm glad we did it.
It was emphatically £5 well spent.
470
00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:27,840
In France, Merrit is struggling
to see the worth in well-being.
471
00:22:27,880 --> 00:22:30,600
I hope it's not a massage.
I hope it IS a massage.
472
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:32,160
You need to relax.
No, can't take this.
473
00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:37,280
And the idea of a £100 joint massage
at a posh spa is hardly helping.
474
00:22:37,320 --> 00:22:39,240
I'm not getting touched
by a stranger.
475
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,680
While Keisha
is full of enthusiasm...
476
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:45,200
..Merrit watches from the sidelines.
477
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:48,000
Do you actually feel...
like it eases pain?
478
00:22:48,040 --> 00:22:50,000
Definitely feel relaxed
479
00:22:50,040 --> 00:22:53,560
and the massage,
it just gets me ready for sleep.
480
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,440
Everything about this
is so relaxing,
481
00:22:55,480 --> 00:22:57,920
up until the point of being touched.
482
00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:01,520
I'm not a fan.
I just don't wanna be touched.
483
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,680
Well, enjoy, girl.
484
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:11,600
Finally, Merrit summons up
the courage to take the couch.
485
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,960
How you feeling, hon?
Tense.
486
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:15,360
Does she feel tense?
487
00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,200
Yes.
488
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,320
Just keep thinking
she's gonna strangle me.
489
00:23:20,360 --> 00:23:21,600
Maybe she's gonna strangle me.
490
00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:24,440
Merrit didn't cope so well
with the massage.
491
00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:26,440
She absolutely hated it.
492
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,440
You could see it in her face.
She just could not relax.
493
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:33,080
I think she's getting on well
so far, for longer than I thought.
494
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:36,200
She just needs to be able
to switch off. That's the thing.
495
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:40,200
I absolutely hated it.
I understand that massages are nice,
496
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,040
but having her, like, just
on my neck, it just... I'm like...
497
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,800
Oh, no, I didn't enjoy that at all.
498
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,360
In Kent, Lyn's up early,
touring the site to find out
499
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,480
what low-cost caravan living
is really like.
500
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,680
This is fabulous.
501
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:02,720
Oh, thank you.
Aw, thank you.
502
00:24:02,760 --> 00:24:05,120
You obviously own it.
It's so different to ours.
503
00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:06,160
Yes, yes, yes.
504
00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,360
Yeah, we've had it
about 18 months now.
505
00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:10,160
Oh. Would you mind if I came up?
506
00:24:10,200 --> 00:24:12,160
No, please do.
Sure, no problem.
507
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,160
I'm Phil.
Hello, Phil.
508
00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:16,760
Hello, I'm Joanie.
Hello, Joanie.
509
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:19,040
Good to meet you.
510
00:24:19,080 --> 00:24:20,640
Is that the Chihuahua?
511
00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:23,640
Chihuahua, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Hugh's favourite (!)
512
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,040
Obviously, you know people here.
Is it a community?
513
00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:28,880
Yeah, everyone is very friendly,
514
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,680
and everyone's here to help
one another,
515
00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:32,520
even down to cutting your grass.
516
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,840
And everybody helps each other.
It is one big community.
517
00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,440
We love being here.
It IS like a home for us, really.
518
00:24:38,480 --> 00:24:40,320
It's home from home.
Yeah.
519
00:24:40,360 --> 00:24:42,960
In fact, so much so
that we got married last year...
520
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,240
Did you?
Yeah. Oh!
521
00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:47,240
We had our wedding reception
at the pub.
522
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,560
We had a jolly good time, didn't we?
Yeah. We did.
523
00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,680
It's like one big happy family,
really...
524
00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,320
Oh, that's lovely.
..which is nice.
525
00:24:53,360 --> 00:24:56,400
It was humbling to see
how much they cared about
526
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,440
something that is, actually,
relatively basic and low cost.
527
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:04,200
It was surprising...
and it was real, it was genuine.
528
00:25:04,240 --> 00:25:06,720
Oh, thank you so much.
You're welcome, nice to meet you.
529
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:09,000
Really appreciate
you sharing your home with us.
530
00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:11,240
That's OK,
it was lovely to meet you, Lyn.
531
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:12,800
Back in the caravan...
532
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:17,000
Oh, maybe it's not been used
for a while,
533
00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:18,600
so the gas isn't coming through.
534
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:22,680
..Lyn and Hugh are making inroads
into their bargain haul of eggs.
535
00:25:24,040 --> 00:25:26,560
You know what
I like in my scrambled eggs, Hugh.
536
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:31,840
Chilli. And truffle butter
is a marriage made in heaven.
537
00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,520
And these two uber foodies
are adding a touch of class
538
00:25:34,560 --> 00:25:36,960
to their simple breakfast.
539
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:39,920
OK, I think you might need to sit
at the table shortly, Hugh.
540
00:25:39,960 --> 00:25:41,120
Oh, wow, OK. That soon.
541
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:44,120
I mean, usually,
I put flowers on it or something.
542
00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,840
Lyny, look at this.
543
00:25:45,880 --> 00:25:49,520
Bring it on.
An actual sumptuous...
544
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,240
That's probably
a bit of a first for you,
545
00:25:51,280 --> 00:25:53,240
buying eggs out of a fridge
by the side of the road.
546
00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:55,480
It's definitely a first for me.
547
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,240
In Chamonix, so far,
548
00:25:58,280 --> 00:26:02,520
the luxury wellness experience
isn't exactly lifting Merrit's mood.
549
00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:07,040
Looks schmaltzy.
Oh, wow. Red carpet.
550
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:10,360
Maybe some of Chamonix's finest
traditional fare will hit the mark.
551
00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,720
This place is so posh.
552
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:17,720
They would normally spend £15 eating
out and have a menu they can read.
553
00:26:17,760 --> 00:26:19,120
So, this is what I was afraid of.
554
00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:22,640
Yeah, it's gonna take me a minute
to choose something.
555
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,480
I'm gonna end up having a salad cos
it's the only thing I understand.
556
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:28,960
Nothing so ordinary here.
557
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,120
First, it's a complimentary starter
of escargot,
558
00:26:31,160 --> 00:26:34,960
a classic French dish of
snails cooked in garlic.
559
00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:37,680
How is it?
560
00:26:39,960 --> 00:26:44,280
Merrit had snails,
which was absolutely hilarious.
561
00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:46,240
But she tried them, very brave.
562
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:49,800
I don't think I'd see
her ever ordering snails again
563
00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:51,520
if we got the opportunity to.
564
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:52,880
'She absolutely hated it.'
565
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:53,960
Good?
566
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,400
It would have been rude if someone
gives you something complimentary
567
00:26:58,440 --> 00:26:59,520
to just not eat it.
568
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:02,560
Mm.
Is it like chicken?
569
00:27:04,080 --> 00:27:05,920
I should have trusted my instinct.
570
00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,280
No offence to the French,
but I will not be doing that again.
571
00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:12,200
Next up is an Alpine speciality -
fondue.
572
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,800
Melted cheese and wine served
in a communal pot,
573
00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:16,760
heated over a portable stove.
574
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:20,680
Designed to warm you up
after a day out in the snow.
575
00:27:20,720 --> 00:27:22,400
OK, yeah.
576
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:25,080
OK, let's go.
577
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:28,680
LAUGHTER
578
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:34,120
I don't know, I thought it'd be
super strong for some reason.
579
00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,240
It is strong. Oh.
That's strong cheese to me.
580
00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:40,040
And then what? You're supposed to
eat and stir and eat and stir?
581
00:27:40,080 --> 00:27:42,040
There's too many instructions!
582
00:27:42,080 --> 00:27:47,360
The whole meal cost £120 and
most of that was cheese. Dearie me.
583
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:50,440
I think the idea of fondue
was just a bit...
584
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:54,280
It's not for me, um...
Spend all that money for, like...
585
00:27:54,320 --> 00:27:56,360
You put all cheese
and then you only end up
586
00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:59,640
having to do the work anyway
when it still comes out on a table.
587
00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:05,760
In Kent, Hugh and Lyn are finding
their budget break
588
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:09,960
has lots of benefits, but for Hugh,
sleep is not one of them.
589
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,200
I'm going to have a go...
590
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,520
I'm gonna sleep on the sofa bed
tonight, I think.
591
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,200
Hughes 6'3" frame
has outgrown his bedroom.
592
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:22,440
The issue for me with the box room
is the feeling of being enclosed
593
00:28:22,480 --> 00:28:24,520
and not having that personal space.
594
00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:26,680
The two single beds pushed together
wasn't ideal,
595
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,760
so I'm just gonna see
if this is better.
596
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,280
It's years
since I've slept on a sofa bed.
597
00:28:31,320 --> 00:28:32,560
Oh!
Oh, look at that!
598
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:34,240
OK, that looks promising.
599
00:28:38,160 --> 00:28:41,600
Better? I think
that's gonna be better, you know.
600
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,400
Coming up, both pairs of friends
find out the cost of holidaying
601
00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,600
like the other half.
602
00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,040
Total bill for your holiday is...
603
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:53,520
HUGH DOES DRUM ROLL
604
00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,960
LAUGHTER
605
00:28:57,520 --> 00:28:59,000
Think what you could do with that.
606
00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,760
How many holidays we could go on
with that for the year.
607
00:29:10,440 --> 00:29:12,160
It's day four.
608
00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:14,840
Ooh...
Oh, wow!
609
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,560
In Chamonix,
breakfast for Keisha and Merrit
610
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:20,920
is a £40 box of pure indulgence.
611
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:22,480
I don't know...
They look so delicate.
612
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:23,760
I want to try a little bit of all.
613
00:29:23,800 --> 00:29:26,120
They look too good to eat, though.
I know, it does.
614
00:29:26,160 --> 00:29:27,640
You're gonna have to take pictures.
615
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:29,680
A selection of
quality French patisseries
616
00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:31,000
delivered to the chalet.
617
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:33,800
This is so French, like...
Mm-hm.
618
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:36,400
You can tell that
the attention to detail,
619
00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:38,160
the intricacies...
Mm-hm.
620
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,800
I just feel like
they do things next level.
621
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:43,160
It's the perfect gift for Keisha,
622
00:29:43,200 --> 00:29:46,480
who has dreams of
her own cake making business.
623
00:29:46,520 --> 00:29:47,920
Definitely, like, inspiration.
624
00:29:47,960 --> 00:29:50,680
Seeing the macron, I've always
thought, "Yeah, I wanna try them."
625
00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:53,520
And now seeing it, it's like, yeah,
I need to try them on a get home.
626
00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,960
I actually learned quite a lot
about Keisha as well
627
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:57,840
when we were doing it.
I didn't realise that
628
00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,280
when she makes cakes,
there's a creative element to it.
629
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,600
Even the box, it's not a cheap box,
is it? It looks expensive.
630
00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:06,480
The pastry was just amazing,
631
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,360
and it would be great to offer
those sort of cakes as well.
632
00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,760
Yeah, that's definitely inspired me
to do a bit more.
633
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:14,320
They look expensive.
634
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,760
I'd love to see how much.
What do you think it is?
635
00:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,720
I'd say about £45.
Mmm!
636
00:30:21,760 --> 00:30:23,120
In Kent...
637
00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:24,840
Oh.
That all right?
638
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:26,240
..the heavens have opened,
639
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:30,760
but 6'3" Hugh
is snug as a bug in his new bed.
640
00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:35,160
Oh, so, last night was much better.
641
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:37,080
That little room felt very enclosed.
642
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:41,920
I'm quite wide so turning around
to get to the wardrobe...
643
00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,560
Now that room is just
my wardrobe and my dressing room.
644
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:47,800
Good morning.
645
00:30:47,840 --> 00:30:51,480
You are the king of the castle.
Good morning. I know.
646
00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:55,960
Spread out
in my luxurious king size suite.
647
00:30:56,000 --> 00:30:57,240
LYN LAUGHS
648
00:30:57,280 --> 00:30:59,000
You've landed up
with the biggest room now.
649
00:30:59,040 --> 00:31:01,280
Landed up with the biggest room,
exactly.
650
00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,920
I've got
this lovely open plan suite.
651
00:31:05,880 --> 00:31:09,800
Next on the activity list
is a trip to the beach.
652
00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:13,080
It's a far cry
from their usual £1,500 a day jaunts
653
00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,760
to the sunshine of the Caribbean.
654
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,320
Not the best day
to be at the seaside, is it?
655
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,400
# Oh, I do like
To be beside the sea... #
656
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:27,200
Once again, living without luxuries
is spurring Lyn on to seize the day.
657
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,080
Hold back the waves!
Bye!
658
00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,240
Oh, do you know, it's all right.
Yeah?
659
00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:35,920
It's really warm (!)
Yeah, boiling hot (!)
660
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,000
At least we can say
we went in the sea.
661
00:31:38,040 --> 00:31:40,840
Seeing Lyn on the beach,
it was lovely because
662
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:46,840
it just really... encapsulated for
me everything that I love about Lyn.
663
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,960
We are the only people
on this beach.
664
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,120
Lunatics, I think,
is the word you are looking for.
665
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,800
The sea was not going to defeat her,
666
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:57,280
the rain was not
going to defeat her,
667
00:31:57,320 --> 00:32:02,640
she paddled out there
in her jelly shoes, and in she went,
668
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:05,640
and I take my hat off to Lyn
for that.
669
00:32:05,680 --> 00:32:09,480
I've got sand on my toes,
if not, sand in my toes.
670
00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,480
So much for my pedi!
671
00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,760
In France, the super luxury
all-expenses-paid holiday
672
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,560
isn't living up to
Merrit's expectations...
673
00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,360
Ah, Chamonix Mont Blanc.
674
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,280
..and another wellness activity
is next.
675
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:28,920
With a joint entrance fee of £130,
676
00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:32,520
it's a heated outdoor
spring water pool.
677
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:36,680
This pool is... I don't even know
how many levels of awesome.
678
00:32:36,720 --> 00:32:40,480
Pummelled by jets of water
from all sides, for the first time,
679
00:32:40,520 --> 00:32:43,680
Merrit is enjoying the activity more
than Keisha.
680
00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,720
I don't like the firmness of this.
Oh, what, the jets?
681
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,080
See, if it's a water pressure,
I can take that.
682
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,960
Human hands, no thanks!
683
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,960
I was much more in my element.
684
00:32:56,000 --> 00:32:59,400
There were these chairs
that had, like... jets in them,
685
00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:02,760
and that kind of pressure is
perfect. I was loving it.
686
00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,320
In Kent...
687
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:09,400
Eyes down for a full house.
688
00:33:09,440 --> 00:33:11,280
..the rain may have stopped,
689
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:15,000
but the next activity is
more bargain British than ever.
690
00:33:15,040 --> 00:33:16,840
We'd like to join you for bingo,
please.
691
00:33:16,880 --> 00:33:19,560
We've not really done this before,
so what do we need to do?
692
00:33:19,600 --> 00:33:23,080
£1 each... OK.
..and you play on that six.
693
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,480
I'm not having a drink now,
so we've got enough money.
694
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:28,880
But you can have a drink
cos it's only £1, and that's £1.
695
00:33:28,920 --> 00:33:32,240
That was your mayo, right,
so look grateful!
696
00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:36,240
Trust me,
this is really a budget holiday.
697
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:43,360
Millions of us Brits
religiously play bingo every weekend
698
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,120
for as little as £1 a round.
699
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:49,680
Is that £2?
No that's two euros, Lyn!
700
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:51,160
Lyn had never done it
701
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:54,760
and I think was really open to
a new experience as she always is.
702
00:33:56,280 --> 00:33:58,960
Good evening, everybody.
Evening.
703
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:02,320
All the ones, 11.
704
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:05,960
Oh!
705
00:34:06,000 --> 00:34:09,760
I got very excited
when my number was called out
706
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,960
right at the beginning.
707
00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,240
So I'd squeak, and I think
I heard somebody going, "Shush!"
708
00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:21,400
All the sevens, 77.
Ah!
709
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:23,240
SOMEONE SHUSHES
710
00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:26,600
It was interesting.
They were all very serious.
711
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,600
I think one game was enough for me.
I mean... lovely people...
712
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,720
I don't think I've done bingo...
713
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:37,520
Maybe when I was a teenager
on that campsite, caravan site,
714
00:34:37,560 --> 00:34:39,320
and I said I'd never go back to it.
Yeah.
715
00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:43,560
Come on, let's get wrapped up.
It's getting a bit chilly, isn't it?
716
00:34:43,600 --> 00:34:46,240
It's freezing.
Oh, suddenly, it's cold.
717
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:52,000
Day five in France.
718
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:55,080
Isn't that...
Yeah, Chez Richard.
719
00:34:55,120 --> 00:34:57,360
..where the pastries are from?
We've gotta have a look.
720
00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,840
Inspired by the pastries
delivered to the chalet,
721
00:34:59,880 --> 00:35:01,960
Keisha has tracked down the baker
722
00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,080
to pick up
some tips for her cake business.
723
00:35:05,120 --> 00:35:08,360
Keisha actually makes cakes.
Oh, great. Amazing.
724
00:35:08,400 --> 00:35:09,680
Thank you.
Nice.
725
00:35:09,720 --> 00:35:12,960
If you want to know
more about the French, er, pastry,
726
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,840
if you want,
we have a... a pastry cooker...
727
00:35:16,880 --> 00:35:17,880
Ooh.
No way.
728
00:35:17,920 --> 00:35:19,920
..to learn some of technique.
729
00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:21,000
Really?
Yes.
730
00:35:21,040 --> 00:35:22,560
We can do it?
Yes, sure.
731
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:24,000
Oh, yes, please.
You have to.
732
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:25,440
Let's give it a go.
Let's try.
733
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,960
Thank you.
You're welcome.
734
00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:29,680
A lovely guy behind the counter,
he let us go back,
735
00:35:29,720 --> 00:35:32,880
and he let Keisha, like, see
how the cakes were made.
736
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:35,200
And it was pretty amazing.
Bonjour.
737
00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:38,040
Ah, vous voulez faire les roses,
c'est ca?
738
00:35:38,080 --> 00:35:40,080
Vou voules je vous apprenne faire
les roses?
739
00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:43,120
Ooh.
OK, OK.
740
00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,760
La, j'ai fait une ganache.
Chocolat blanc.
741
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,560
OK. White chocolate.
White chocolate ganache.
742
00:35:50,800 --> 00:35:52,560
Faut bien appuye.
743
00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:54,240
Like that?
Faut avoir de la force, oui...
744
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:55,440
Gotta do with pressure.
OK.
745
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:57,960
He wants pressure. Some pressure.
OK.
746
00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:01,680
Keisha learns how to make rose
cupcakes out of white chocolate.
747
00:36:01,720 --> 00:36:04,040
I think that
this experience for Keisha
748
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,720
will make
such a massive difference.
749
00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:10,400
And to be able to learn
from real pastry chefs,
750
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:13,400
I think that'll be such
a massive confidence boost for her.
751
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,600
So pipe it round,
and then drop it down a bit lower...
752
00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:20,120
but... gotta do it nice and slow,
otherwise I'm gonna mess it up.
753
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,920
OK. This your first time doing this?
754
00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:24,120
Mm-hm.
Yeah.
755
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,760
That was, erm,
an experience I'll never forget.
756
00:36:27,800 --> 00:36:31,760
I've learnt a new piping technique
as well.
757
00:36:31,800 --> 00:36:35,520
Honestly, they look really good.
Oh.
758
00:36:35,560 --> 00:36:36,920
Voila.
759
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,240
I can't wait to try it
and create a box of cupcakes
760
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:43,560
with my new technique
that I've learnt in France.
761
00:36:51,160 --> 00:36:53,760
In Kent,
it's been a seismic shift away
762
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:57,560
from luxury living
with tandem rides and pub bingo.
763
00:36:57,600 --> 00:37:01,280
So, this is Ramsgate?
Yeah, it's lovely.
764
00:37:01,320 --> 00:37:05,920
And the swap is making Lynn and Hugh
think about what really matters.
765
00:37:05,960 --> 00:37:07,520
Feel like we know each other better.
766
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:09,760
I mean, we've never lived together
before, have we?
767
00:37:09,800 --> 00:37:12,880
We haven't, no... or even really
travelled together much.
768
00:37:12,920 --> 00:37:14,880
I certainly feel
I've got to know you better.
769
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:19,120
Yeah. Are you seeing sides of me
you've not seen before?
770
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:21,800
Well... I didn't know your quirks
of what you watched on TV,
771
00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,080
or what you like for breakfast or...
all sorts of things about you.
772
00:37:25,120 --> 00:37:26,760
Yeah, I suppose
you do get to know someone
773
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:28,440
a bit more intimately, don't you?
Yeah.
774
00:37:28,480 --> 00:37:31,240
I think Hugh and I
have always valued our friendship,
775
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:34,840
but I think
it's... become even stronger.
776
00:37:34,880 --> 00:37:37,720
It's lovely.
Hmm. I'm loving it.
777
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:41,520
Right, shall we go play
some tupping shove? Yep.
778
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,520
Coming up, there's a big surprise...
779
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,080
You're halfway to a deposit
for a house with that. Mm-hm.
780
00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:51,000
..as the cost of both holidays
is revealed.
781
00:37:51,040 --> 00:37:53,280
Actually more than I was thinking.
782
00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,040
It's quite a bit more
than I thought.
783
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,280
In Chamonix, for Keisha,
784
00:38:03,320 --> 00:38:06,280
the week of expensive well-being
has been life-changing...
785
00:38:06,320 --> 00:38:10,360
Champagne as well. Oh, my God.
This is... This is beautiful.
786
00:38:10,400 --> 00:38:14,200
..providing the inspiration
to expand her cake business.
787
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:16,760
Gotta do it nice and slow,
otherwise I'm gonna mess it up.
788
00:38:16,800 --> 00:38:18,000
Voila.
789
00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,200
But Merrit can't see why
rich people pay through the nose
790
00:38:21,240 --> 00:38:23,120
for things like
rubbing and stretching.
791
00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:25,680
I just keep thinking
she's gonna strangle me.
792
00:38:28,240 --> 00:38:31,040
Today, on their last afternoon,
793
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,760
is a final chance
for her to embrace the holiday.
794
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:35,960
But will a mountainous hike
do the trick?
795
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:38,320
Are you all right with the hill
so far?
796
00:38:38,360 --> 00:38:43,120
No, I'm not. Where're we going?
To Cascade du Dard.
797
00:38:43,160 --> 00:38:46,760
The trouble is,
one of Merrit's pet hates is hiking.
798
00:38:46,800 --> 00:38:49,400
How much further?
Not far.
799
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:51,600
No, I need a time,
like, in minutes.
800
00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,960
I coped with it really well.
801
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:55,920
I don't think
I complained very much.
802
00:38:55,960 --> 00:39:00,360
Oh, gosh.
OK, not far. Not far to go.
803
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,800
How long is not far?
I think it'll be pretty.
804
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,440
Bit worried
that Merrit would hate it
805
00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:07,520
and moan the whole time.
806
00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:09,720
OK, which way?
That way.
807
00:39:09,760 --> 00:39:11,320
Five minutes still.
808
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,360
But it was five minutes down there.
Five minutes again this way.
809
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:15,640
Oh, my gosh.
810
00:39:15,680 --> 00:39:18,360
This is what we've come to see.
Wow. Wow. Wow. Wow.
811
00:39:20,200 --> 00:39:22,600
Even Merrit
can't fail to be impressed
812
00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,720
by the 20m-high
Cascade du Dard waterfall,
813
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,760
fed by the Mont Blanc glaciers.
814
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,760
This is... Is that like the snow
from the mountains melting down?
815
00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:36,440
I think so. It looks so fresh.
Mm.
816
00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:41,120
At first, I thought the walk
was gonna be really treacherous,
817
00:39:41,160 --> 00:39:43,320
but I've got to be honest,
it was really good.
818
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:47,080
I did see a cafe back there.
819
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:50,400
Mm-hm, cafe time?
I'm ready for a coffee.
820
00:39:50,440 --> 00:39:54,320
It's taken a hard hike
surrounded by awesome natural beauty
821
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,560
for Merrit to finally appreciate
her trip away.
822
00:39:57,600 --> 00:39:59,880
Even though the walking stuff
is hard, I feel like...
823
00:39:59,920 --> 00:40:02,480
when you get to the end, you feel
you've accomplished something.
824
00:40:02,520 --> 00:40:05,120
With our city breaks, there's
no major accomplishments. Yeah.
825
00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,160
Like, walking, I guess, is free...
Mm-hm.
826
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:08,640
..but how much to get here?
827
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:11,080
And to stay somewhere really nice
as well.
828
00:40:11,120 --> 00:40:14,160
I think that
maybe with a bit more money,
829
00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,360
this would be, like,
a great holiday.
830
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,160
There's so much to do.
I could definitely get used to this.
831
00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,600
It's making me a little sad
because in my mind,
832
00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:24,520
I thought that
when we do holidays... Yeah.
833
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,080
..we'd be living our best lives,
and we're having the best time.
834
00:40:27,120 --> 00:40:30,360
But seeing this makes me feel like
there's so much more,
835
00:40:30,400 --> 00:40:32,520
and it's cos
we can't afford to see it.
836
00:40:33,920 --> 00:40:34,960
In Kent...
837
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:37,960
Loving our looks...
838
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:39,720
Aw.
..quiet and understated as always.
839
00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:44,040
After spending their last £7
on a drink at the local pub,
840
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:46,880
Lynn and Hugh are also reflecting
on what the week has taught them.
841
00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:51,120
These two drinks would be £4.75,
I think that's maybe £2.80.
842
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,000
So it's about another £7.50.
843
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:57,000
I mean, one of the things I've got
out of this whole experience
844
00:40:57,040 --> 00:41:01,200
is really realising
just how hard it is
845
00:41:01,240 --> 00:41:04,920
and how grinding it must be...
not just on holiday
846
00:41:04,960 --> 00:41:06,920
but you know just for
people in their daily lives.
847
00:41:06,960 --> 00:41:09,560
Everything you do is a decision.
848
00:41:09,600 --> 00:41:12,720
You know, I think back to my parents
when I was growing up, and...
849
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:16,560
you know, we grew out of our shoes
and our clothes so quickly, and...
850
00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,480
they were on
such a limited, limited budget.
851
00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:23,920
I knew before coming away on this
holiday that I am very fortunate.
852
00:41:23,960 --> 00:41:27,680
But actually, you know,
these few days have made me realise
853
00:41:27,720 --> 00:41:31,640
that I'm also good without.
I'm good with simple.
854
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:38,840
It's the final day...
855
00:41:38,880 --> 00:41:40,880
and time for
both pairs of friends to return to
856
00:41:40,920 --> 00:41:43,000
the reality of their normal lives.
857
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:46,600
But before the journeys back home,
858
00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:48,880
it's the moment
everyone has been waiting for...
859
00:41:48,920 --> 00:41:49,920
Let's go.
860
00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,520
..when they find out
the cost of their holidays.
861
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:56,200
Total bill for your holiday is...
862
00:41:56,240 --> 00:41:58,440
THEY IMITATE DRUM ROLL
863
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:02,920
..£505, that's actually more
than I was thinking.
864
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:04,440
It's quite a bit more
than I thought.
865
00:42:04,480 --> 00:42:06,080
Yeah,
that's more than I was thinking.
866
00:42:06,120 --> 00:42:09,320
Go on, let's see what it is.
Let's go... OK...
867
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:13,320
..13 and a half grand.
868
00:42:15,520 --> 00:42:18,200
Think what you could do with that.
869
00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:22,040
How many holidays we could go on
with that for the year?
870
00:42:22,080 --> 00:42:23,480
This is crazy.
871
00:42:23,520 --> 00:42:26,200
You're halfway to a deposit
for a house with that... Mm-hm.
872
00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:28,120
..and you've just come on holiday
with it.
873
00:42:30,040 --> 00:42:31,360
In my personal life,
874
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:36,080
I've never budgeted,
or not for many years... and...
875
00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,760
..I don't like it.
876
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:43,360
Too right.
That, my darling, is very obvious.
877
00:42:43,400 --> 00:42:45,920
Whoo!
Look at that.
878
00:42:45,960 --> 00:42:47,640
What a week it's been.
879
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,720
I feel like the whole holiday,
though,
880
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,600
it's just given me
that chance to sort of think,
881
00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:53,640
"What more do I wanna do
with the business?" Yeah.
882
00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:56,520
But it's not just
professional inspiration.
883
00:42:56,560 --> 00:42:58,040
The luxury trip has also helped
884
00:42:58,080 --> 00:43:00,480
the two friends
reflect on their personal lives.
885
00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:03,360
I've really enjoyed spending time
with you this week. Yeah.
886
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:05,120
And it's been nice
just for it to be us two,
887
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:06,560
and I know you feel the same
888
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:09,800
because we're in a seven-bed house,
and we shared a bed every night.
889
00:43:12,720 --> 00:43:14,600
It's the journey back,
890
00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:17,960
and after huge week,
how does it feel to return home?
891
00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:21,080
Back to... regular life.
892
00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,000
Back at home now.
893
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:24,880
There's no mountain views
out the window
894
00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:26,960
but, er, glad to be home.
895
00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:32,160
Home sweet home.
Ah, look at that, the laundry.
896
00:43:32,200 --> 00:43:33,400
We've had a really good time,
897
00:43:33,440 --> 00:43:36,000
but it's always good
to be back home.
898
00:43:36,040 --> 00:43:37,360
It is lovely to be back,
899
00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,080
surrounded by
all my creature comforts.
900
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,120
Hugh and I got to know one another
better.
901
00:43:42,160 --> 00:43:44,720
I would go on a caravan holiday
again,
902
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:49,000
although I'm loving being home
in rather more comfort and luxury.
903
00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:51,640
Chris, Jason. Wait! W-w-wait!
904
00:43:51,680 --> 00:43:54,200
That's the toilet!
Eurgh!
905
00:43:54,240 --> 00:43:55,760
Argh, oh!
906
00:43:55,800 --> 00:43:58,200
I don't wanna let go. I'm gonna die!
907
00:43:58,240 --> 00:44:00,640
I could definitely get used to this.
908
00:44:00,680 --> 00:44:03,440
Could I have the Wi-Fi, please?
We don't give it out, I'm afraid.
909
00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:04,960
Really?
No, no.
910
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,160
I just cannot stay one more night.
I'd even accept a B&B.
