Transcript
00:01This is mad.
00:03At a time where young and old have never been further apart...
00:06I'm going the wrong way.
00:08...six young Brits who have never travelled alone before...
00:11It's nothing like Wales.
00:13...are being paired up with six pensioners
00:15who thought they would never travel again...
00:17You're my teammate!
00:18...to embark on an epic treasure hunt across Japan.
00:21Oh, yes!
00:23Bloody hell, this is gonna be hard.
00:25...in a social experiment to challenge assumptions...
00:28...and prove that age is just a number.
00:31She's a bit too old.
00:32I beg your pardon.
00:33...they will need to work together as one.
00:36Colin, you're amazing!
00:38...their journey continued in Kyoto...
00:41A place to call home.
00:42...where they hunted down clues...
00:44What the hell does that mean?
00:46...and took on challenges to win coins.
00:49We did it!
00:50...while some duos have started to bridge the divide...
00:53Show us your best hat walk. Oh, yeah.
00:55...others still seem worlds apart.
00:57Don't panic.
00:58I am panicking.
00:59...with one team sent home from Japan...
01:01It hurt a lot more than I thought it was going to.
01:04...the hunt for £50,000 continues...
01:06...in one of the most poignant cities in the world.
01:15Hiroshima.
01:18The first city in the world to suffer the devastating effects...
01:22...of an atomic bomb at the end of World War II.
01:26Today it's regenerated into a thriving, vibrant city...
01:30...standing as a testament to the resilience of humanity...
01:33...and the people of Japan.
01:35So, win Hiroshima.
01:39Mm-hmm.
01:40Full of history.
01:42Was you alive when the bombing happened?
01:45I was, just... I wouldn't be quite one.
01:48With five teams left in the competition...
01:51...the pair with the lowest total of coins...
01:53...at the end of this city's challenge...
01:55...will be sent home from Japan.
01:57We're all in competition...
01:58Entirely so.
01:59...and every one of us wants to win.
02:01Oh.
02:02The guide went off.
02:03Take the tram to a place for peace.
02:05For peace.
02:06Hmm.
02:07Maybe like a memorial, possibly?
02:08Yes, yeah.
02:09Hmm.
02:10This could be a map up here on the right, possibly.
02:12The first couple to receive their clue are 68-year-old Rosie...
02:16...and 24-year-old Lawrence.
02:18A bit of information instead.
02:21They've struggled with some of the challenges...
02:23...but Lawrence's thirst for knowledge...
02:25...is beginning to bring the teammates closer together.
02:28Obviously, you can see here 80 or 90,000 people died...
02:31...in the initial attack, in the blast...
02:33...and then after that, it was hundreds and hundreds of thousands.
02:36So, I'm learning so much from Lawrence.
02:38You get about 30 facts of the day...
02:41...and everyone is more interesting than the last one.
02:44Being here has kind of opened my eyes in so many ways...
02:48...but also spending it with yourself, too.
02:50Like, I don't know, we've both had very different lives...
02:52...but also, at the same time, very similar.
02:54I think this experience has, as I said before...
02:57...it's helped me with my confidence.
02:59Yes, no, definitely likewise.
03:00Because my confidence was quite low when we came...
03:02...and I was thinking, oh, I won't be able to do this...
03:06...and I won't be able to do that.
03:07No, that's it.
03:08And gradually, I've been thinking, well, I'm keeping up with everybody.
03:13I think Lawrence is an old soul in a young body.
03:18Even though there was a big age difference.
03:21I feel like when I tell him things, he really gets me.
03:25Loneliness and confidence are my two biggest issues.
03:29My family, I love them dearly, they love me dearly...
03:32...but they're all very, very busy.
03:34So if they say, oh, sorry, I can't do that, I'll say, oh, that's fine, that's fine.
03:39But I'd be broken-hearted inside and I wouldn't show that.
03:43The fact that it's so easy for me to speak to Lawrence about things...
03:47...that are quite painful for me, I find quite strange...
03:51...because I can't speak like that to lots of people that I've known for years.
03:56But do you know maybe a place for peace, locally?
03:58Peace, like Peace Park?
04:00Possibly so.
04:01You're going this way.
04:02That's amazing, thank you so much.
04:03Thank you for all the information.
04:05Have a nice day, thank you so much.
04:07Oh, now we've got that information.
04:10That's amazing.
04:12On the other side of the city, 80-year-old Barbara and 21-year-old Katie...
04:17...have started to transcend their age gap...
04:20...and are forming an unlikely friendship.
04:23You're looking for the home of a local spirit.
04:27OK.
04:29We're going to end up drinking, aren't we?
04:32What's wrong with that, Katie?
04:35Barbara, she'll care what anyone else thinks.
04:38That is how I want to be when I grow up.
04:41Are you good at holding up after a few?
04:44I'm not. I'm not as good as you.
04:47I promise you, I'll have one.
04:50And that's it.
04:51All right.
04:52Embarrassing myself.
04:53No carrying you home then, Katie.
04:56We did click instantly.
04:58And both of us knew it, you know, from the beginning.
05:02I'm so lucky to have someone with me like her.
05:07Oh!
05:08Oh, yes!
05:11After following their clue, the duo have tracked down a traditional sake brewery.
05:17Sake's the spirit, then.
05:19You're a spirit drinker today.
05:21Yep.
05:22Seems like it.
05:23In a brewing masterclass, they'll be taught everything there is to know about sake,
05:28the Japanese tipple made by fermenting rice.
05:32Anything suits you, Katie.
05:34Seriously.
05:37One, two, three.
05:39Yeah!
05:43Barbara and Katie will need to pay attention to everything they hear
05:46and not get carried away by the taste as they'll be tested on their newfound sake knowledge later.
05:53So, when we drink, we say kanpai.
05:55Kanpai.
05:56Kanpai.
05:57Kanpai.
05:58Bye.
05:59Bye.
06:00Oh, Jesus Christ.
06:02Oh, it's nice.
06:03I like it.
06:04In fact, I'll have another this week.
06:06Oh!
06:07That's dangerous.
06:08Yeah, it's alcohol content is about 15.
06:11I'm gonna be blooded.
06:12Oh, my goodness, the younger generation are so different.
06:17What was it we say?
06:18Kanpai.
06:19Kanpai.
06:20Kanpai.
06:21Kanpai.
06:22We're innocent.
06:23We were, honestly.
06:25We don't put sake by ourselves.
06:29Some people will pour it.
06:31Kanpai.
06:32We want to make happiness and joy through sake.
06:35Well, we're getting happier by the drink.
06:38Kanpai.
06:39Kanpai.
06:40I wish I was more like her, in a way.
06:43What age do people start drinking this?
06:45Uh, 20 in Japan.
06:47She's got no filters.
06:48No.
06:49Karako?
06:50Kanpai.
06:51Kanpai.
06:52Kanpai.
06:53Kanpai.
06:54That just adds to her charm.
06:59Have you got any ideas what you want to do in your future?
07:03I did want to be a social worker, because...
07:06I just needed that one social worker to come into my life and change it for the better.
07:11And I want to be that person for other children.
07:14You tick a lot of boxes, believe you me, Katie.
07:18I've had such a bad family life, so I ended up homeless God knows how many times.
07:23And then I ended up dropping out of school.
07:27So I've got three GCSEs, maybe.
07:30But I'm sure you've learned a lot from this trip alone.
07:36The sights we've seen, the culture we've seen.
07:40That's like education, isn't it?
07:42Barbara is so full of love.
07:45Probably are telling me every ten minutes, like, look, you're stunning.
07:49You tick every box.
07:50You need to do this.
07:51And you need to do that.
07:53I think just having so much positivity around me has definitely done me some good.
07:57Live your dreams.
07:59Either that or go into head and shoulders modelling, because you are a beauty.
08:04You are.
08:06I love you, Barbara.
08:07A beauty.
08:08You are a real love.
08:09If I didn't win it, I would feel that I'd let Katie down.
08:14To her, it's a massive amount of money.
08:18It's a lot of money to me.
08:19But her needs are greater than mine.
08:22And I want to win badly.
08:25For her, because she's a bright kid.
08:28Really bright.
08:34Having deciphered their clue.
08:36Atomic Bomb Dome.
08:38I think this must be our stop.
08:40Lawrence and Rosie are heading towards one of the most poignant landmarks in the city.
08:45Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park.
08:48Atomic Dome site?
08:49Yes.
08:50Wow, it must be this here, I'm guessing.
08:55At its centre, the Children's Peace Monument honours the thousands of young people
09:00who were victims of the atomic bombing.
09:04It's surrounded by millions of origami paper cranes, paying tribute to Sadako Sasaki,
09:11a 12-year-old girl who died from leukaemia caused by the radiation.
09:17In Japan, it is said, if you make 1,000 paper cranes, your wish will be true.
09:23So she folded more than 1,000 paper cranes.
09:28And shocked by her death, her classmate started a campaign to build this kind of monument.
09:36It's very touching.
09:39It makes you think, doesn't it?
09:41We receive more than 10 million paper cranes every year.
09:45They're beautiful.
09:46They're very beautiful.
09:47I've never really had a point in my life where I thought if I could make a wish and hope for it to come true,
09:54because the only thing I would wish for is to have my husband back and that's impossible.
09:58Having learnt about the significance of origami cranes at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park...
10:05Over there I see a pin.
10:07Oh, yes.
10:08The entrance would be here then, I guess.
10:10..the pair are about to get a masterclass in the art of making them.
10:14Origami master.
10:16Ah, yes.
10:17This crane will be 22 steps.
10:20They'll need to observe the numerous folds of paper needed to make each crane.
10:25Yeah, honestly, Rich, I've never seen this crane.
10:28I'm concentrating.
10:29As they will be tested on it for their next challenge.
10:33These cards are the number of steps for the animals.
10:37That's right.
10:38Yes.
10:39This mammoth is 124 steps.
10:43This is one piece of paper?
10:44Ah, yes.
10:45All of them are provantis.
10:46Ah.
10:47Wow.
10:48They're so beautiful, but very, very difficult.
10:55Based on their newfound knowledge, the duo will need to work out how many folds of paper were used to create each of the different models.
11:04166, 55, this side.
11:07And we've got 201, 328, 22.
11:14Every correct answer will win them a coin and better their chance of remaining in the competition.
11:2022 is the crane, isn't it?
11:22The highest number is going to be the beautiful dragon.
11:27Compenguin 55.
11:30It's quite small.
11:32And this has got loads of little increases, doesn't it?
11:35Small, yeah.
11:36The game is that we'll all be eliminated one by one until we have the ultimate winner.
11:41Four is not enough, we need five.
11:43We've got 201 and 166.
11:46This is serious now.
11:50Across the water, the next stage of Barbara and Katie's day-drinking treasure hunt is awaiting them,
11:56on the sacred island of Miyajima.
12:00It's renowned for its freely-roaming deer, who are considered as wild animals and cared for by local volunteers.
12:09Barbara, what have we got ourselves into?
12:11Wait for something to find out.
12:14I love this place.
12:19If it is that I don't get through the next round,
12:22they can never take off what I've experienced here,
12:26and the wonderful time we've had.
12:29Oh, look at that.
12:31Oh, lovely.
12:33To keep Katie in the competition, Barbara will have to face even more boos.
12:39Oh!
12:40As the duo have tracked down their challenge location at a local liquor shop.
12:45Good as you are!
12:47Oh!
12:49To win coins, they'll need to try and remember everything they were taught earlier at the brewery,
12:54as they'll be tested on their newfound sake knowledge.
12:57No, no.
12:59Oh!
13:00Can you identify which of the sake statements are true or false?
13:05Me and Barbara have got a lot more to learn about each other, haven't they?
13:08Yes.
13:09And lots more adventures. Like, if we went home to Maru, we won't have no adventures like this today.
13:13The word for cheers in Japan is...
13:18KAMPAI!
13:19The duo will need to decide if the statements are true or false,
13:22by taking a sip from the glasses in front of them.
13:26It's true!
13:29Oh!
13:30If they taste sake, they've chosen correctly and will win a coin.
13:33High five!
13:35The legal age for drinking alcohol is 20 years old.
13:39In Japan is 20 years old.
13:41True.
13:42KAMPAI!
13:43KAMPAI!
13:46Oh!
13:47Oh, darling, you're doing well.
13:50Sarky should be consumed at room temperature.
13:54Katie, I'm not sure.
13:56I think false.
13:57Saying that some people have it warm.
14:00Mm.
14:02You think that's false, then?
14:04I think it's false.
14:05What are you feeling?
14:07Not sure.
14:11I just want to do well for Katie's sake, really.
14:14Because that amount of money would change her life.
14:19What are you feeling?
14:22I honestly can't remember what she said.
14:25She's got a good future.
14:27If she's directed on the right path, in my opinion.
14:31If I let her down, I'd feel really sad.
14:34In the historic city of Hiroshima, five intergenerational teams are on a treasure hunt with a difference.
14:53Have you ever done, like, a TikTok before?
14:55No, I've never done a TikTok.
14:57You've got to keep looking around at everything.
15:00With £50,000 at stake, the outcome of Barbara and Katie's sake challenge...
15:06High five.
15:08...and Rosie and Laurence's origami tusk is crucial to their fate.
15:12I'm not sure that this one would be 201 steps.
15:16The duo are still deciding how many folds of paper are needed to make each origami animal.
15:22This one is more intricate.
15:25It is, isn't it?
15:27They've already placed the penguin with 55 folds, the dragon with 328, and the crane with 22.
15:34And this is kind of almost, not simple, but a bit simpler within the twists and turns.
15:39Now they must decide whether the ram or the spider has more folds.
15:43Should we get one each and both lock them in at the same time?
15:47Yeah, yeah.
15:48Let's do it.
15:50I've got butterflies!
15:51Yeah, literally origami butterflies all up inside.
15:55If we do go home, I would be sad for myself, obviously.
15:59But I would be devastated for Laurence because he has so much more to give.
16:08This one is correct.
16:09This one is correct.
16:14This one?
16:16Correct.
16:20Okay, of course, correct.
16:22It's correct.
16:26This one is wrong.
16:28Wrong.
16:30The other way around.
16:33Wrong.
16:34Shifting in.
16:35Okay.
16:36So we've got three out of five.
16:37Yeah, yeah.
16:38Okay.
16:40Obviously, we would have liked four or five.
16:44We're kind of in a firing line, you know?
16:45Absolutely, we did.
16:46We just have to pray and hope that the other teams will do a lot worse than we did.
16:51All we can do is hope, you know?
16:55Back on Miyajima Island, despite a strong start, Barbara and Katie are still struggling to answer their third question.
17:02I'm so sorry if this is wrong.
17:04Oh, no, you mustn't be.
17:05You mustn't be.
17:06Locking in false.
17:07For every true or false statement they answer correctly, they will win another coin.
17:13And another shot of sake.
17:15High five!
17:19You should not pour your own sake.
17:23That's true.
17:24Are we locking it in?
17:25Yep.
17:26Kanpai.
17:27Kanpai.
17:28I've learned a lot about sake.
17:37Last one.
17:39But there's a lot to remember.
17:41There's a risk that we'll forget what we learned at the other part.
17:47A master steak brewer is called a toja.
17:51I think that's true.
17:52You're feeling true?
17:53I am, yes I am, but I don't want to influence you in any way.
17:57No, I am happy with true.
18:01Kanpai.
18:02Kanpai.
18:03Kanpai.
18:05We've got five.
18:06We've got five.
18:10Don't make us some more water.
18:11Don't worry about that, I need some more sake.
18:15Keep the water to yourself.
18:18Winning with Barbara, it'd be so amazing.
18:22I honestly wouldn't want to go into this with anyone else but Barbara.
18:25I can't believe it that we've got another five.
18:32Now we're on a roll.
18:34How are you feeling?
18:35Jubilant.
18:37I've got a lot of something.
18:39Whoa, what is this?
18:40I feel like me and Barbara definitely connected from the first moment.
18:45I couldn't even possibly imagine being any closer to her.
18:49Oh, he wants you present.
18:51Being in Hiroshima with Katie is a bonus.
18:55Oh, it's all I've ever wanted.
19:00It was an absolute delight to see her getting the pleasure out of it that she has, honestly.
19:09He was trying to eat you all my life.
19:13She's just like my non now, so she knows everything. I can't get much more than that.
19:19Look at me!
19:20Oh, you can be all over the village.
19:22Back on the mainland, two more teams are about to embark on their treasure hunt across Hiroshima.
19:31Today, let's set a target of five.
19:34One couple whose newly formed bond has seen them thrive in the competition so far are 73-year-old Colin and 25-year-old Charlotte.
19:44Do you think we can get five?
19:46I think we need to get five, the way the competition's going.
19:49When I first met Colin, I was thinking, oh, no, he's going to struggle with the long days and the challenges,
19:55and I'm going to have to, like, pull him along a little bit, but it's the opposite.
19:59Oh!
20:00It's time to put your sea legs to the test, take a trip to Cure, is it?
20:06Cure.
20:07But don't miss the boat.
20:10Don't miss the boat, no.
20:11Are we going on a boat?
20:12I've never been on a boat before, have you?
20:14I've been on a boat, yeah.
20:15Have you?
20:16Yeah, I like going on boats.
20:17Oh, you'll enjoy this, then, if you miss the boat.
20:20I think me and Colin are one of the most positive teams.
20:23Even if we're failing, then we just make a joke out of it and it lightens the mood,
20:27so I think that's going to take us far.
20:30Cure?
20:31I'm sorry, I...
20:32That's OK!
20:33Well, thank you so much.
20:34OK.
20:35Sorry.
20:37Have a nice day.
20:38Arigato.
20:39Right, if they don't know, then we're done for.
20:44Two miles away, another intergenerational duo are also hunting down their challenge location.
20:49Head to Shintaki, follow the hungry crowds.
20:5571-year-old Val and her junior teammate, 18-year-old Aaron.
21:00Oh, mind yourself, chick.
21:03Chick!
21:05Quite a lot of old people I've met in the past are just grumpy people or Karens.
21:10Konnichiwa!
21:11But being here with Val, that has changed my opinion on them.
21:17You don't have to stop in your 40s, 50s, you can still carry on and do a lot.
21:22Following their clue, the couple are searching for their next challenge in a bustling food market.
21:26I can see a maki's right there.
21:28No!
21:29I can see it.
21:30But Aaron's distracted by an offering for lunch.
21:32And so far in Japan, he's eaten McDonald's up to three times a day.
21:37Let's try something else, let's go and see what we can find.
21:39Would you be up for that?
21:40No.
21:41Come on.
21:42No.
21:43That's chicken, fried fish.
21:45Look here, let's go in here.
21:47Oh, come on.
21:48No!
21:49Oh, maki's!
21:50My mission for today is to try and get Aaron to have some Japanese food.
21:54Can I have?
21:55Just four of them.
21:56Yeah.
21:57I'm a bit hungry.
21:58Oh, can you actually add two hash browns?
22:00You didn't get given much money in the care system.
22:02£40 a week, £40, £50.
22:05So that had to go on food and if you needed, like, clothes or socks or boxes, like,
22:10once you used all your food up, you wouldn't get any more money.
22:13So we have to get the cheaper stuff.
22:16What's this?
22:17Sausage and egg.
22:18Mmm.
22:19Mmm.
22:20So if you don't mind me asking, how did you happen to end up in care?
22:23I was, er, drinking, then going home, shouting at my mum, kicking doors, getting arrested.
22:30Erm, because I feel like she lied to me because of my dad.
22:33Oh, right.
22:34Obviously, I found out my dad weren't my real dad.
22:36Do you think that's what made you start to drink then and...?
22:39I was just angry.
22:40Angry towards your mum?
22:41Angry.
22:42Grown up, erm, it was alright at the start.
22:51Like, I had a mum and my dad.
22:54But then, say about six years ago, I think, erm, I found out he weren't my real dad.
23:01Like, you don't want to hear that at a young age, like, he's not your dad.
23:07And, obviously, we had a good relationship.
23:09And then, we just stopped speaking because I told him I think I was looking for my real dad.
23:18So, that didn't help, too.
23:20See, I had that father figure for a bit and it just went.
23:25I was crying a lot.
23:27Oh!
23:28Crying all the time.
23:29And then, when I was drinking, it all just came out and all the violence and anger and just all came out then.
23:35What was it?
23:36It was a shock.
23:37Yeah.
23:38If you'd grown up all the time thinking, you know, your dad, you were a part of this family.
23:43Yeah.
23:44I was just arguing and smashing my room up multiple times.
23:50I got arrested and went to cells.
23:53From there, I was in care and I knew I weren't going home again.
23:58Oh, Aaron, I'm really sorry to hear that.
24:00You've kind of had big stuff, traumatic stuff happen.
24:04Yeah.
24:05All together at such a young age.
24:07Yeah.
24:08Yeah.
24:09I just thought about him and I thought, Val, you want to win this because you want to be able to take your family for a reunion in Jamaica.
24:18But actually, Aaron needs to win this.
24:20He needs to win it so that he can start to build his life and feel at home wherever he is.
24:2720 miles away, Colin and Charlotte have hunted down their challenge location in the line fishing port of Kure.
24:36Smells like the sea, doesn't it?
24:38Yes.
24:39Where the learning for their next task will take place out on the water.
24:42What did it say?
24:44Don't miss the boat.
24:46Don't miss the boat.
24:47There's boats everywhere.
24:48Oh, there's our pin.
24:50Having relied on Colin's experience to get them this far in the competition.
24:54Hello.
24:55Konnichiwa.
24:56Charlotte's seizing the opportunity to take the lead in their fishing challenge.
25:01I love the bite.
25:02Like when I catch a salmon, they just go under everything.
25:05And then you pull them in and it's like, is it still on? Is it not?
25:08I love to go fishing on the weekends with my father.
25:11Fishing is like my favourite hobby ever.
25:13I just sit there, eat the snacks and reel it in.
25:16I love that part.
25:17Out of the two of us, you're an expert because I don't know anything at all.
25:21So I'll be learning from you today.
25:27I love fishing.
25:28You did that with your dad all the time?
25:30I do that with my father, yeah.
25:31Are you close to your family?
25:33Yeah, we're really, really close.
25:35We all chip in and kind of do the cleaning and ironing and things.
25:38Although I'm the main one that does the ironing.
25:40The boys just leave the pile for me.
25:42So if we did win, what would you do with the money?
25:47Well, first of all, I'd sort my mother out.
25:50I'd get her an electric wheelchair so she has her own independence.
25:54But try and do something like that.
25:56Try and better their lives and make it easier.
25:58A lot of my money is to take care of my parents
26:01because they don't work.
26:02They're disabled.
26:04So I want to do everything I possibly can for them.
26:07Why would I spend all that money on myself
26:10when I could help all of my family, do you know what I mean?
26:13It comes across how much you love your family
26:15and you put them first and...
26:18Yeah.
26:19She's made sacrifices to help her parents
26:23and for a young girl to do that,
26:26I think it's absolutely amazing.
26:28She's something special, that girl. She really is.
26:32The waters around Hiroshima are home to hundreds of fish species.
26:37Have we got a shark?
26:38A shark!
26:39So the duo will need to remember as much as they can
26:41in order to succeed in their challenge.
26:47Rhett's sea brain.
26:49I love fishing, but I can't touch the fish.
26:53Inhale.
26:55I touch the rod. I don't go near the fish, though.
26:57And I net the fish.
26:58So when it comes in and then I pass it straight to my father,
27:00because it stinks.
27:02And this is a young, yellow tail.
27:05Yeah, it's...
27:07Once you touch the fish, you're like humming.
27:09It's disgusting.
27:11It's flounder.
27:12Ah!
27:13The flounder has teeth.
27:15Okay.
27:16Now go.
27:17Woo!
27:18This one is called rockfish.
27:20Rockfish, yeah.
27:21Rockfish.
27:22Woo!
27:23Put it back.
27:24This one is a flat fish.
27:25Just a flat fish.
27:26Yeah, flat fish.
27:27Oh!
27:28My God!
27:29We're looking for Shinteki.
27:33Shinteki.
27:34Shinteki.
27:35Shinteki.
27:36Back in the city centre...
27:37Were there Shinteki?
27:38After a pit stop for lunch, Val and Aaron have finally tracked down the location for their
27:43next challenge.
27:44Look what I can see.
27:46A street food market which specialises in a local delicacy.
27:50We'd better not be eating.
27:52Okonomiyaki are savoury pancakes stuffed with various ingredients ranging from meat to
27:57seafood.
27:59Aaron's worst nightmare.
28:03It's no McDonald's, is it?
28:04Yeah.
28:05I think it's a lot healthier than McDonald's, though.
28:07I'll tell you what they put in it as well.
28:08What?
28:09Squid.
28:10No.
28:11No.
28:13The food in Japan.
28:16Well, it's a bit interesting, you know, because I've not really experienced it.
28:22For their challenge, the pair will need to taste five different okonomiyaki dishes, each
28:27with a hidden mystery ingredient.
28:30Based on their experience of Japanese cuisine, they've just got to identify what's been added
28:36in a coin.
28:37I'm not excited to try a new food, because I don't like seafood and half of the food is
28:41seafood.
28:42There's a lot of seafood.
28:43Yeah.
28:44I'm just going to have to bite my tongue and eat it.
28:46Oh, look at the legs.
28:47You don't like it.
28:48Is that a prawn?
28:49It tastes like a prawn.
28:50Should we go for it?
28:51Yeah.
28:52Prawn.
28:53The answer is...
28:54Prawns.
28:55Prawns.
28:56Prawns.
28:57Yeah.
28:58Prawns.
28:59The answer is...
29:00Prawns.
29:01Yeah!
29:02Prawns.
29:03I'm not really a seafood person, but I'm never back down from a challenge.
29:07Like, I always try and push myself.
29:09What the blue yellows are?
29:10I want to win.
29:11That's why we're here.
29:12Oh, no.
29:13Is that octopus?
29:14We think, we hope it's Saatchi.
29:15Is it Saatchi, did they say?
29:16The answer is...
29:17Kimuchi.
29:18God!
29:19Aaron gave it 100%.
29:20Bless him.
29:21But yeah, he was trying then with a funny face.
29:22Boo!
29:23It's this, it's this.
29:24Boo!
29:25It's this.
29:26Boo!
29:27It's this.
29:28Boo!
29:29It's this.
29:30Boo!
29:31It's this.
29:32Boo!
29:33It's this.
29:34Boo!
29:35It's this.
29:36Boo!
29:37It's this.
29:38Boo!
29:39It's this.
29:40It's this Aaron.
29:41I'm not putting that in my mouth.
29:44After their morning's fishing lesson, Colin and Charlotte are about to be tested on the
29:49different types of fish caught in Hiroshima's waters.
29:52Oh, gosh.
29:53It's the names of the fish.
29:55The pair will need to combine their memories to try and recall which out of the ten fish are
30:01sea bream, yellowtail, flatfish, blackrockfish and flounder.
30:07Oh, my God, it's a rank.
30:09Each fish they correctly identify will win them a coin and better their chance of staying
30:14in the competition.
30:16What the hell is that?
30:18It looks like a chicken.
30:19Shall we do the yellowtail first?
30:21Because I think we'll know that one.
30:22Do you want to do the honours?
30:23That's the yellowtail, isn't it?
30:24Well, that's the yellowtail, isn't it?
30:25Well, that's the yellowtail, isn't it?
30:26Isn't it?
30:27Probably so dumb.
30:28That one?
30:29Yeah.
30:30I feel Colin took the rope on this one and I kind of, like, sat back and watched.
30:37Well, I put the yellowtail little sticker on the wrong one and he was like, no, Charlotte,
30:42it's the one with the yellowtail.
30:43So, since then, I was like, Colin, just take the lead.
30:45That's the rockfish.
30:46OK, well, we know the biggest one is the flounder.
30:52Wait a minute.
30:53No, that's not the flounder.
30:55Because the flounder got teeth.
30:57Oh, well done.
30:58Who's the teeth?
30:59That's the flounder.
31:00His eyes are so disgusting.
31:03Colin smashed it.
31:04He's so amazing.
31:05His mind is, like, crazy.
31:06I've never met anyone like him in my entire life.
31:09That's a flatfish.
31:12So, I think it was a sea bream, wasn't it?
31:14I think you're right.
31:15I think that's a sea bream.
31:16I think that's right.
31:19Having made their final choices...
31:21Fingers crossed.
31:23Yes.
31:24Yes.
31:25The team are about to discover how many fish they've been able to recall.
31:30Yes.
31:31Yes.
31:32Yay.
31:33Yes.
31:34Yay.
31:35Oh, full house.
31:38Smashed it.
31:39Hi.
31:40Full house.
31:41You can't do better than that.
31:42No, you can't.
31:43This is tremendous.
31:44We've got five coins, and we've never gone past three before.
31:47Thank you very much.
31:48Thank you very much.
31:49I just hope, like, nobody's drawn, like, all of us draw, because that would be our luck.
31:54Thank you very much.
32:04In the renowned city of Hiroshima, the final duo to hunt down their clue are 73-year-old karaoke host, Julie, and her junior team-mate, 19-year-old Tende.
32:15Head to Nakamachi, and get into the groove.
32:16The groove.
32:17Yay!
32:18I think Tende is quite a reserved chap.
32:19So I would just love to see him do something where he just puts himself out there, and to see him come out of his little shell a little bit.
32:32Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
32:33Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
32:34Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
32:35Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh.
32:36Oh, oh, groove.
32:37Shall we go and have a look?
32:38Yeah.
32:39Having tracked down their clue to a local record shop, the duo must hunt through the vinyl for their next set of instructions.
32:46This is so cool.
32:49While searching, they'll need to keep an eye on the record labels, as they'll be tested on music that's related to Japan later in their challenge.
32:58Do you remember, like, the first, like, piece of music that you bought?
33:02I remember the first, well, then it was a little seven inch, and I would play on my dad's gramophone.
33:08You know, for me, like, the first was a little, like, iPod touch from my dad.
33:13And I remember he, like, downloaded a bunch of, like, Bob Marley and a lot of blues music.
33:19So I think music was kind of the first time I really felt a sense of community in a way.
33:27Because, for me, it was the first time I saw people that looked similar to me.
33:31It was represented through music, like, through, like, music videos.
33:34I was at an orphanage in Uganda when my parents decided to adopt me at six months old.
33:41Growing up in such a big family and being the youngest and living in, like, such a small village in a very white environment where there was no one that looked like me, like, that was very challenging.
33:54I remember, like, holding my mum's hand and, like, looking at it and being like, oh, like, why is your hand a different colour to mine?
34:02When I look at my family, I see them as my family, like, I just see my mum as my mum.
34:07But then when we'd walk in the street or, like, go somewhere like Tesco's and then people would, like, stare or look and be like, who is this child to my mum?
34:16So one of the biggest challenges, I think, was learning about race and adoption and, like, how I fit in.
34:24Like, who am I away from my family and kind of, like, what is my identity separate from them?
34:30I now sometimes try and make my own music.
34:33It's like dealing with adoption.
34:34I found, like, playing piano a really, like, helpful way for me to just concentrate my mind.
34:40You can get lost in it, can't you?
34:41Yeah.
34:42And you don't have to think about other things.
34:43You're just in the moment.
34:45I'd really like to take Tende further.
34:48And I want it for him even more than me, really.
34:51Ah, you found it.
34:54Head to Matsubaracho.
34:58Find a place where you can sing like nobody is listening.
35:03I'm so happy.
35:07Across the city...
35:11With a life-changing £50,000 on offer,
35:14Aaron is holding his nerve to try and identify the key ingredient hidden in five different Okonomiyaki dishes.
35:21Octopus.
35:22Yeah.
35:24Val and Aaron have so far correctly identified one out of two,
35:28but have three more chances to find the hidden octopus, mochi and squid.
35:33The answer is...
35:35Octopus.
35:37Thank you so much.
35:38I don't like seafood, so that bit was pretty shit.
35:44What are we going with?
35:47Well, I don't think it's cheese.
35:49I can't think what else...
35:50Mochi.
35:51The answer is...
35:52Mochi.
35:53Correct.
35:54He doesn't like seafood, love him.
35:59But yeah, he threw himself into the game.
36:01He did.
36:02There it is.
36:03Yeah.
36:04Squid, I think.
36:05Lock in squid.
36:06The answer is...
36:07Squid.
36:08Squid.
36:10Very good.
36:11Correct.
36:12Very quickly.
36:13Give me up.
36:14Give me up.
36:15Give me up.
36:16Give me up.
36:17Oh.
36:18Very quickly.
36:19I was surprised.
36:20That was hard.
36:21Tears came to my eyes.
36:22I don't know where.
36:23It just came out of the blue.
36:24I think it was the tension.
36:25And Aaron had said, we've got to get this right.
36:26It obviously means more to me than I've realised, you know, until this moment.
36:29And I know it means a lot to Aaron as well.
36:30So, you know, we're both invested in this.
36:31Because I want to stay.
36:32And Aaron wants to stay.
36:33Matsubaracha.
36:34Is that, like, a place?
36:35Who knows?
36:36On the other side of town, Julie and Tende are still searching for their challenge location.
36:40Is there anywhere around here where we could sing?
36:43No.
36:44No.
36:45No.
36:46No.
36:47No.
36:48No.
36:49No.
36:50No.
36:51No.
36:52No.
36:53No.
36:54No.
36:55No.
36:56No.
36:57No.
36:58No.
36:59No.
37:00No.
37:01No.
37:02No.
37:03No.
37:30about you let's keep it moving invented in japan in the 70s karaoke is now performed in over 8 000
37:38venues across the country including julian 10 days challenge location being a karaoke host
37:46at my age i think that's probably the biggest surprise that makes me feel like this i don't
37:51know who you are but you must be i do it because i love it so much i'm called jiving julie
38:00the teammates will now be tested on their joint knowledge of song titles over the decades
38:09with the twist that they all have a japanese theme
38:15oh i know this do you do you know harry stars i know harry stars music for a sushi restaurant
38:23yeah one down four to go
38:35oh something of a samurai by the red hot chili peppers i don't really know their music
38:44i know them but i don't know the word of this in my mind i don't know why sort of a samurai but that
38:50it's just do you want to try a sword because i i don't know the answer i'll be honest i don't
38:55know okay well let's just try a sword
39:00dreams
39:03oh my god
39:04i miss the kokyo flank by manic street breaches but i've never heard of i've heard of them
39:16nothing this is ever yes i don't say it's mine
39:20at least you've heard of them i've heard of them so how have you heard of them because they're in my book
39:25oh okay i think initially when we found out the game we were really looking forward to it
39:32the fact that it involved music especially karaoke because you're in japan that really
39:36is like her expertise
39:41i feel like i'm really letting you down i feel so sorry
39:44it's okay so like do you think that i miss there is more like a person like i miss the tokyo boy and
39:53it's tokyo girl
39:56oh right we'll go with girl then
40:06i'm hoping that there's some musicians of my era or that like i actually know
40:14it's not good no it's not good having won only one coin out of three so far
40:44the outcome of julie and tende's karaoke challenge will determine their fate
40:50i feel like i've guessed a lot in the last like two other ones
40:54so i'm like curious like anything that you have to say
40:59so far the duo have been relying on each other's musical expertise
41:04as back in the uk tende's a keen musician and julie's a karaoke host
41:09is this not harajuku girl i'm trying to run through the bits of the song
41:17harajuku girl makes the most sense because i feel like that style is mainly attached to like
41:23women is it not yeah oh it's girls that's so annoying
41:33blank in japan by coldplay
41:36any ideas no i've never heard of this song
41:45surely people in your pub must like saying coldplay
41:49i don't know the song i really don't know the song i don't know what to say
41:5610 days is getting frustrated because i didn't know the answer and he felt i should know the
42:01answer but it's not like i can learn every single song that's in my songbook
42:06considering how many song titles you've probably read over the years
42:10that would be quite helpful i think
42:18i know there's a song called lost in japan but that's by sean manders
42:23i don't know if they'd share the same name there's no reason why they were not going to have two
42:28songs the same okay lost final answer
42:35lovers
42:40i kind of felt i was being blamed because i didn't know the song you know i can only make an
42:48educated guess if it's not the right answer it's not the right answer it's unlikely that another team
42:55has only one point yeah
43:02i answered the questions which i could answer and julie has been calling herself karaoke queen everyone
43:09has been calling her karaoke queen so i think it's obviously a bit shocking the outcome considering
43:17karaoke is her job
43:26having done everything they can all five teams have been summoned to the grounds of hiroshima castle
43:31to find out which intergenerational duo will be leaving japan
43:36mixed emotions i mean
43:38it could go either way from here you know very very sad if it was the end of our adventure
43:44unaware of their rivals results rosie and laurence are first to arrive with three coins
43:50that's enough yeah fingers crossed followed by colin and charlotte with a maximum of five
