00:02:00It's nearly Christmas
00:02:02But it's been hard on her too
00:02:04She lost her husband of almost 30 years
00:02:07Okay, I get it
00:02:09I will, I promise
00:02:12But can we please get this exhibit on point?
00:02:15We've got three days to save a company, girl
00:02:17Don't worry about it
00:02:19We can only do our best
00:02:21And Martina will do the rest
00:02:23I need a drink
00:02:26I'm gonna get a mega pint of wine
00:02:27Back in a sec
00:02:29I don't know, I can't do that
00:02:32I can't do that
00:02:33I can't do that
00:02:34But I can't do that
00:02:34You can't do that
00:02:35Okay?
00:02:36I don't know.
00:03:06All set for Christmas?
00:03:24Sorry?
00:03:26Have you got all your Christmas shopping done?
00:03:28Honestly, I haven't even started yet.
00:03:31Last-minute type of girl, eh?
00:03:34Not really.
00:03:34I usually like to have everything ready.
00:03:39It's just a really crazy time for me.
00:03:42I'll get you.
00:03:43Thank the heavens for next-day delivery.
00:03:45That's all I can say.
00:03:46I guess.
00:03:47Once I get my work done.
00:03:50Eat.
00:03:51Drink.
00:03:53Be merry.
00:03:55Spending time with the family.
00:03:57Nothing more important.
00:04:00I can't wait to see those crazy bastards.
00:04:03It's the only time of the year when they're all together.
00:04:07I love Christmas.
00:04:10It makes me feel warm and fuzzy.
00:04:13You know?
00:04:14Sounds great.
00:04:15How about some Christmas music?
00:04:17Go ahead.
00:04:17I'm just doing some work.
00:04:19I'm just doing some work.
00:04:37It will work.
00:04:42It's gonna work.
00:04:43Martina, I think I've nailed it.
00:04:48Me and Estelle spent hours on this yesterday.
00:04:50She's coming back tonight and we're gonna finish up the campaign.
00:04:52Come take a look.
00:04:53Honestly, you'll love it.
00:04:56You're gonna flip.
00:04:57Grace, I need a moment with you.
00:05:05Martina, what is it?
00:05:07Grace, your designs are amazing.
00:05:12We've worked so well together.
00:05:16But, unfortunately, I can't afford to keep you on.
00:05:22We have to let you go.
00:05:24We have to let you go.
00:05:54This place is so expensive.
00:05:58Honey, I'm not even thinking about that right now.
00:06:02I'm going home tomorrow to see my family for Christmas.
00:06:04And then I'm gonna be drinking from 8am till 10pm.
00:06:07And you should do the same.
00:06:09I can't, Estelle.
00:06:10I can't face going home right now.
00:06:12Things between me and my mum are so difficult.
00:06:15Well, you can't sit here by yourself.
00:06:17Could I come with you?
00:06:19No.
00:06:19You know why.
00:06:20Why?
00:06:21Your mum has always been so good to me.
00:06:24And your dad, God rest.
00:06:26And if I brought you home for Christmas, my mum would kick both our butts.
00:06:30Yeah, you're probably right.
00:06:31It's not just the friction.
00:06:36It's having to go back home as a failure.
00:06:40After I left to find my own way.
00:06:43To get away from the small town.
00:06:44What happens?
00:06:47The damn company I'm with, folds.
00:06:49Just don't leave your mum hanging, okay?
00:06:52I'm gonna go pack my stuff.

00:09:46Oh, so good to be back, Mum. Lovely.
00:09:52So, how's your job going, sis?
00:09:58I...
00:09:59What is it, Grace?
00:10:02The company went bust.
00:10:04I'm out of a job.
00:10:08Sorry.
00:10:10Why didn't you tell us?
00:10:13It literally just happened yesterday.
00:10:15Right before Christmas?
00:10:17That's awful.
00:10:19Yeah, well, I'd rather just focus on Christmas at the moment.
00:10:23Sure, yeah.
00:10:25Speaking of which, how come you haven't decorated yet, Mum?
00:10:27I haven't had the inclination to do so.
00:10:30But how come?
00:10:32There was no one here to help me.
00:10:34You just got back yesterday, and your sister just arrived today.
00:10:43I did not know that you were both coming.
00:10:47Of course you were, Mum.
00:10:50Don't be silly.
00:10:52Weren't we, Grace?
00:10:53Well, I just didn't feel like decorating since we understand.
00:11:10Let's decorate together.
00:11:12Yeah.
00:11:12Yeah.
00:11:15Okay.
00:11:17Good.
00:11:17We can decorate the cabin for Christmas.
00:11:21But we'll need a Christmas tree.
00:11:23Which one of you ladies will buy a Christmas tree for us?
00:11:26I'd love to, but I'll have to meet a friend later on, after we've dumped some things off at the cabin.
00:11:36Okay, I'll get it.
00:11:37Get a good one.
00:11:39Remember the tree you got with Dad five years ago?
00:11:41Yeah.
00:11:41That looked like it'd been left over from the previous Christmas.
00:11:44Even a dog wouldn't pee on it.
00:11:45Who's going to be driving?
00:11:50I will.
00:11:51I've got to get a tree later.
00:11:52Good girl.
00:11:53All right, girls.
00:12:19So, who's going to stay in the third cabin with me, and who's going to be sleeping in the main cabin?
00:12:26Mum, there's three cabins, so one each.
00:12:34Morning, Christine.
00:12:35Morning, Luke.
00:12:37Mum, who's this?
00:12:40I'm sorry, girls.
00:12:41I should have mentioned that Luke is staying in the second cabin.
00:12:45He's actually here doing some work, so the cabins can be ready for Christmas.
00:12:48Hi, Luke.
00:12:52My name is Naomi, and this is Grace.
00:12:57Morning.
00:12:58Pleasure to meet you both.
00:13:00I'll try not to make too much noise.
00:13:02Well, we make as much noise as we do.
00:13:05Well, if it's okay, I'll head to the shed and get some tools, Christine.
00:13:09I'll be fine.
00:13:10Okay, Mum.
00:13:16Any reason why you're hiding an impossibly attractive handyman?
00:13:20Sis.
00:13:21Well, he was the only person available at this time of the year.
00:13:25And I must say, the boy is a fine boy.
00:13:29Mum!
00:13:31Grace, you're single and free.
00:13:33That's what's in it.
00:13:35Thorsten, I agree.
00:14:06Mum, do you not think maybe it's better to have Christmas at the house instead?
00:14:14Come on, sis, don't be a defeatist.
00:14:17You know, a little tidy up and could make this place feel jingo-belly in no time.
00:14:22Look, I know that the place is a bit neglected.
00:14:25I've not been able to come up here and watch since your father passed.
00:14:29But this might be our last Christmas at the cabin.
00:14:36Mum, don't worry about her.
00:14:45It'll all work out.
00:14:46Come on.
00:15:05Any more sanitiser?
00:15:07One bottle should be enough.
00:15:08I've used it already.
00:15:09What?
00:15:11This place will take weeks to clean properly.
00:15:13Don't be silly.
00:15:16What are we even doing here?
00:15:21Just make the best of it.
00:15:24For Mum.
00:15:25I was just unblocking the chimney.
00:15:44What the hell?
00:15:46Oh, Lord.
00:15:47I do apologise.
00:15:48Just get it out.
00:15:49Grace, why have you got me so rude?
00:15:57I can't take this right now.
00:15:59I can't take this right now.
00:16:00What's up with you?
00:16:20What are we going to find next?
00:16:21A dead raccoon?
00:16:23A waspness hide in the attic?
00:16:27You know it's hard for me too, right?
00:16:29I know.
00:16:33I'm sorry.
00:16:36Forget it.
00:16:38Let's focus on making this place look great.
00:16:43Let's make Dad proud.
00:16:46I love you, sis.
00:16:47I love you too.
00:16:50Come on.
00:16:51It's going to have a great Christmas.
00:16:55Do you want me?
00:16:59Oh, hey.
00:17:05Don't worry.
00:17:05I'll be at you very soon.
00:17:07Just going to finish doing this.
00:17:10So you just let yourself in as you please, I see?
00:17:13Uh, no.
00:17:14Of course not.
00:17:15Your mother let me in.
00:17:16I did not.
00:17:17Let there be light.
00:17:32Wow.
00:17:33Good job.
00:17:35There's nothing really.
00:17:38So modest.
00:17:39They're obviously pretty handy.
00:17:41YouTube tutorials are pretty handy.
00:17:42Wow, good job.
00:17:49Shut up.
00:17:50You'd think you'd done open-heart surgery.
00:17:51You'd not change the frigging light bulb.
00:17:53I'm trying to keep them sweet for you.
00:17:55How about we just get cleaning, huh?
00:18:03Hon?
00:18:04I'm going to clean the bathroom upstairs.
00:18:06Going to give this list a little when you see him.
00:18:08Me?
00:18:09Yes.
00:18:10Wow, this is quite a list, Mum.
00:18:11There's a lot to be done, and don't forget to pick up the tree.
00:18:15No, but I'll be going soon.
00:18:17Oh, OK.
00:18:24Oh, hey.
00:18:26Do you mind if I get some water?
00:18:27Yeah.
00:18:41I'll see if I can sort this out tomorrow.
00:18:50Better get the studying on YouTube tonight.
00:18:53Yeah.
00:19:02Thanks.
00:19:02My mum's got a list of chores for you to do.
00:19:17Wow.
00:19:19This is quite a list.
00:19:21Look, don't go overboard.
00:19:23I'm sure we could do about a few of these.
00:19:25We don't want you working too much over Christmas.
00:19:27No, no, it's fine.
00:19:30I'll try my best.
00:19:33Thanks for the water.
00:19:38We can recycle that.
00:19:39Ah, yeah, sorry.

00:20:17I'm going to be in the cushions outside later.
00:20:21Then I'm going to walk to the pub and meet a friend.
00:20:25Are you supposed to go and get the tree?
00:20:27Do I have to?

00:31:14I gotta go online to apply for an important job there's a pub down the road that has free wi-fi
00:31:19I need to go there myself oh well maybe we can both head over do you fancy a walk sure
00:31:29I'm hoping we have a white Christmas hmm it rarely seems to snow in December I mean we
00:31:36had a little flurry he's heading into the cabin now it's looking a bit more homely now yeah
00:31:43their pigeons aren't particularly homely are they it's definitely better now I have a confession
00:31:50to make what is it I might have oversold my handyman skills I mean cleaning the gutters
00:31:58and the chimney is one thing turning a circuit breaker back on but I might have reached my
00:32:04limit with the floorboards why did you apply to the ad then well it said simple tasks wait
00:32:10that is a pretty simple task look I know your mum wants the place looking spick and span for
00:32:15when it goes to market but this list it's a bit excessive a bit I mean I chose the floorboards
00:32:23because it's the easiest one then I have to check the septic tank then repair a dovetail joint I've
00:32:30no idea what that means so you weren't joking about YouTube then nope fine well stay away from the
00:32:39gas lines and then we'll mess up with the plumbing or electrics don't invalidate mum's insurance deal
00:32:45gardening is okay though I used to help out at home when I was younger why don't you want to go home
00:32:52let's just say I was feeling a bit overwhelmed how come you didn't want to come back here me and my
00:32:59mum had a falling out over the cabins I didn't want to put them on the market what does your sister
00:33:05think she wasn't too happy but she said she'll go along with what mum wanted I just felt like they
00:33:14were forgetting about dad's hopes for the place you see do you feel differently now honestly I don't know
00:33:23yet but I did realize I needed to see my mom at Christmas I needed to see my family again
00:33:33thank you
00:33:45I'm sorry I'll be quick I promise that's fine you do what you have to do I'll look up dovetail joints
00:33:54great all done that was great so your mum mentioned you're involved in fashion design
00:34:06what made you want to get into that actually my mum studied when she was younger I used to find her
00:34:12sketchbooks and designs all over the place she was really good but she didn't keep it up no me and
00:34:19Naomi came along you know how it goes yeah well you're clearly very passionate about it and well
00:34:25you dress quite stylish if I may say thank you you look a little bit out of place around here
00:34:31it does feel strange being back after spending the last few years in London
00:34:35so you know a little bit about fashion then maybe a little in passing you don't dress like it
00:34:42oh ouch you might not be much of a handyman but you definitely dress like one
00:34:48okay that sounded just a little bit snobbish it did sorry
00:34:53are you okay you look like you've just seen a ghost
00:35:06I'm fine find anything on dovetail joints not yet just floorboards so far
00:35:13what is it
00:35:27thought I saw my old school teacher

00:36:19so you know he's not much of a handyman so you know he's not much of a handyman he's a lovely boy though and still have his uses

00:39:17I wasn't disturbing you all was I?
00:39:19Relax it's fine.
00:39:20Actually I thought I'd disturb you if that's okay.
00:39:23I bought some mild wine over.
00:39:25Sure.
00:39:26That'd be great.
00:39:27Let me put some of these on the fire.
00:39:32You looking forward to Christmas?
00:39:36I'm feeling a little more festive now.
00:39:39But I still keep thinking about my dad.
00:39:44I have a confession to make.
00:39:53I met your father a few years ago, briefly.
00:39:58I rented one of the cabins for a week or so.
00:40:01Really?
00:40:02He was a nice guy.
00:40:04Very friendly.
00:40:06He brought me some food from his restaurant.
00:40:09Why didn't you say anything?
00:40:11I was a bit different before.
00:40:15Actually, last time, I was picked up by a chevalier limo.
00:40:18Sure you did.
00:40:19When I left home a few months back and travelled, I never stayed anywhere for too long.
00:40:28But for some reason, I remembered this place.
00:40:31I liked the town, I remembered the place.
00:40:34But I couldn't find anywhere online to book a cabin.
00:40:37So I came to town, and then by chance, I saw your mother's flyer.
00:40:42It was only after she mentioned it on the phone that I realised your father had died.
00:40:47And I was so sorry.
00:40:49I can't really tell if people are genuine when they're kind to me.
00:40:54But with your dad, I really felt that.
00:40:57I don't want to push you on the subject, but I'm curious why you left home.
00:41:04You have family.
00:41:07But there's a lot of expectation on my shoulders.
00:41:10I have to project a certain image in my family.
00:41:13Why'd you leave?
00:41:15Because they wanted me to marry someone, but I didn't want to.
00:41:18Like an arranged marriage?
00:41:21Not quite.
00:41:23I just needed to get away.
00:41:25Something simple, just away from what I've been used to.
00:41:29You know, you can tell me anything.
00:41:31Or listen.
00:41:35I'm afraid if you know the truth, you'll think of me differently.
00:41:39What are you, a serial killer?
00:41:45Actually, I'm a prince.
00:41:48Did you hear what I said?
00:41:52You're the prince.
00:41:55Um, yeah.
00:41:57You've heard of me?
00:41:59No.
00:42:00I mean, a few years ago, my dad came home late from work.
00:42:03I was studying.
00:42:04He started telling me about the gentlemanly prince who was staying in one of our cabins.
00:42:08I thought he was spinning me a yarn.
00:42:10Like the time he told me Michael Jackson came to stay and taught him how to moonwalk.
00:42:14I can't believe he's actually telling the truth.
00:42:18That's amazing.
00:42:19What is it?
00:42:20He said to me that night, before he headed off to bed, he said he hoped one day I'd marry a nice man like the prince.
00:42:34Well, I think marriage is a step too far too soon.
00:42:49Well, do you think of me differently now?
00:43:02A little.
00:43:03A little.
00:43:04But not because you're a prince.
00:43:05It's not so much of a mystery now.
00:43:06Let me show you something.
00:43:07This is what you wear?
00:43:08For formal occasions and charity events.
00:43:09He brought it with you.
00:43:10Just to be honest.
00:43:11It's not so much of a mystery now.
00:43:12Let me show you something.
00:43:17This is what you wear?
00:43:32For formal occasions and charity events.
00:43:34He brought it with you.
00:43:36Just in case you go back.
00:43:39What if I never go back?
00:43:41Would that matter to you?
00:43:43It's your decision.
00:43:49Because I have an estate.
00:43:53My family has five, actually.
00:43:56A couple of butlers, maids and a lot of money.
00:44:01It doesn't matter to me.
00:44:04A lot of money.
00:44:07It doesn't define you.
00:44:10But I've learned something by coming back here.
00:44:13What is that?
00:44:14That you shouldn't take family for granted.
00:44:17It's getting late.
00:44:18I better get back.
00:44:19It's going to be a long day tomorrow.
00:44:20Maybe I'll get some rest.
00:44:24Are you planning on sticking around a little bit longer?
00:44:30I guess so.
00:44:31I still have things to do here.
00:44:45But I've got reasons to stay.
00:44:46Good.
00:44:47It's nice to have you around.
00:44:48And some company that isn't family.
00:44:49Guess I'll say goodnight then.
00:44:50Goodnight.
00:44:51Goodnight.
00:44:52Watch out for Krampus.
00:44:54I'm more worried about handyman princes.
00:44:55I'm more worried about handyman princes.
00:45:02I'm more worried about handyman princes.
00:45:17Kissed engines.
00:46:36Jeez, you scared the crap out of me.
00:46:38Quick, Mum's coming over for a breakfast.
00:46:40Can't you guys cook over there?
00:46:41Oh, the kitchen's not working.
00:46:43We need to get your boyfriend on it.
00:46:46Don't even.
00:46:49Look at me.
00:46:50Spill the beans before Mum comes over.
00:46:52No.
00:46:52Well, I saw him chopping logs last night.
00:47:00Does that go on?
00:47:03How big is his chopping?
00:47:04Not as big as your mouth.
00:47:05You're terrible.
00:47:06Oh, Mum's coming.
00:47:11Thanks for breakfast, girls.
00:47:13Thanks, Mum.
00:47:15So, are you guys ready for tomorrow?
00:47:18I guess.
00:47:19You're not sounding too sure, honey.
00:47:22The cabin is a little plain.
00:47:25But we have a Christmas tree here.
00:47:27Oh, that cruddy plastic one.
00:47:28Hush you.
00:47:30Okay, so I need one of you to come with me later.
00:47:33I need to do some last-minute shopping,
00:47:35and I also need to visit the church in the evening.
00:47:37I have plans.
00:47:50Plans, huh?
00:47:52Tell us all.
00:47:54Ask Nanya.
00:47:56Who's Nanya?
00:47:57None your business.
00:48:02It's nice to see you're happy.
00:48:05I know, Mum.
00:48:07So, it looks like you draw the short straw.
00:48:12You are coming with me later.
00:48:14You expect me good.
00:48:17Really?
00:48:18Do you know who you're talking to?
00:48:19Let me guess.
00:48:42Family recipe.
00:48:43Yep.
00:48:43I mean, my parents did run a restaurant.
00:48:51Do you have a favourite Christmas memory of your family?
00:48:55Most years I loved.
00:48:58It was the only time of year that took himself away from work.
00:49:01You didn't get much time with him.
00:49:02He didn't neglect us.
00:49:04He always made time.
00:49:05But at Christmas, we had a few days where the thought of work was totally gone.
00:49:10You could really see that weight lifted from him, too.
00:49:12What about you?
00:49:15Do you have a favourite Christmas memory?
00:49:17Yeah.
00:49:19When I was ten.
00:49:22Usually, our Christmases would involve public events.
00:49:27Right down to attending church on Christmas morning.
00:49:29But one year was different.
00:49:32How so?
00:49:34My mother.
00:49:36She wanted us to get away for a week over Christmas.
00:49:39To break from tradition.
00:49:41She just wanted it to be about us.
00:49:44We had to look after ourselves.
00:49:45Cook for ourselves.
00:49:47My father had to chop his own wood for the fire.
00:49:50It was the best Christmas I've ever had.
00:49:52It felt like, for the first and probably last time ever, we were a real family.
00:50:02We must really miss you.
00:50:04I suppose.
00:50:06It's just...
00:50:07Family politics?
00:50:09Yeah.
00:50:10I know we're privileged.
00:50:13But sometimes, I just wish that we could leave that world behind and live like regular people.
00:50:19Luke, you should call your parents.
00:50:23Invite them here for Christmas.
00:50:25We could all spend Christmas together at the main cabin.
00:50:28Yeah, I don't know if they would.
00:50:30You won't know unless you ask.
00:50:32Christmas is a time for family, forgiveness.
00:50:35A time to look ahead.
00:50:38You don't know how much better I feel to be seeing my mum again.
00:50:49I don't know how much better I feel to be seeing my mum again.
00:51:07I don't know how much better I feel to be able to be seeing my mum again.
00:51:17Hi, Mother.
00:51:33It's me.
00:51:47Are you okay?
00:51:49I thought you might be cold.
00:51:52I'm fine.
00:51:54How'd it go?
00:51:57I spoke to my mother.
00:52:00She was happy to hear from me.
00:52:02Relieved, actually.
00:52:03Do you think they'll come tomorrow?
00:52:06I don't know.
00:52:08Mother wants to.
00:52:09She misses me a lot.
00:52:11It's a father who will be a problem.
00:52:14He's a lot harder to please.
00:52:17I don't know how he'll react.
00:52:19I will take to you.
00:52:21Oh?
00:52:23It was really he who wanted me to marry the daughter of Lugmus now,
00:52:27rather than a commoner.
00:52:29Did you speak to him?
00:52:31No.
00:52:32It's down to Mother now.
00:52:41I hope I didn't pressure you.
00:52:43Of course not.
00:52:44I needed to do it.
00:52:46I guess we'll find out tomorrow what's more important to him.
00:52:50Family or duty.
00:52:52Should we head inside?
00:52:54No.
00:52:56I have an idea.
00:52:58Follow me.
00:53:02What's going on, Luke?
00:53:03You'll see.
00:53:04If there's any dead animals in there, I'm not going to be happy.
00:53:07There's none.
00:53:08At least...
00:53:09I don't think so.
00:53:15Look.
00:53:16Whatever happens with my folks, I want this Christmas to be special.
00:53:21I can't believe these are still here.
00:53:23Yeah?
00:53:24I found them on my first day working gig.
00:53:25I used to help Dad decorate the cabins.
00:53:27I'd go pick up a tree.
00:53:28Always an amazing one.
00:53:29And after we finished decorating it, he'd lift me up.
00:53:33To put the star on it.
00:53:34Let's make this cabin look like the most Christmassy place on earth.
00:53:44Let's make it so Christmassy that mistletoe will grow out of your head.
00:53:45Maybe not that far.
00:53:46Are you sure you want to do this?
00:53:47No.
00:53:48No.
00:53:49No.
00:53:50No.

00:58:44oh
00:58:45oh
00:58:48oh
00:59:19One last thing.
00:59:24You okay?
00:59:48It's nothing.
00:59:49It's work.
00:59:53Do you know what you'll do?
00:59:56These last couple of days, I've been so wrapped up in Christmas, I didn't think.
01:00:01I've been living in the here and now.
01:00:04Not thinking of my future.
01:00:07Here and now is the healthiest place to be.
01:00:09People always say that, but it's sometimes the hardest.
01:00:13Why don't we toast to our handiwork?
01:00:25No.
01:00:27Would you mind if I had a little time to myself?
01:00:29I need to think about things.
01:00:34Of course.
01:00:36Are we okay?
01:00:37Yeah.
01:00:38I just need to think about things.
01:00:40I'd rather do it today and not tomorrow.
01:00:41I'd rather do it today.
01:00:43Sure.
01:00:44Sure.
01:01:14Mum, I'm sorry to call you so late. I need you.
01:01:31What's wrong? You were looking so happy this morning.
01:01:35This is my career, Mum. I feel lost. I don't know what to do.
01:01:40I got offered an interview. Martina recommended me to someone.
01:01:48That's great. It means you'll probably get a job.
01:01:51I think so. I know the CEO. We get on well.
01:01:55So, what's the problem?
01:02:00I don't know what I want to do.
01:02:04Take time to think things over.
01:02:08And then there's Luke.
01:02:11What about Luke?
01:02:13I have feelings for him.
01:02:15I know.
01:02:16I just don't know how people are going to see us together.
01:02:19What? Because you're some high-falutered fashion designer?
01:02:23And he's a handyman?
01:02:25Mum, you have no idea.
01:02:28Luke isn't a handyman.
01:02:30He's not, so what is he?
01:02:32You know how Naomi was joking about him being Prince Charming?
01:02:35Mm-hmm.
01:02:36Well, he is.
01:02:37He's a genuine prince.
01:02:40He walked away from his estate to find himself.
01:02:42You're joking.
01:02:44He showed me a picture of his family at the castle.
01:02:48Good Lord.
01:02:49Mum.
01:02:52So, is he a rich prince?
01:02:55Behave.
01:02:56But yes, he is rich.
01:03:00Oh.
01:03:00So, you think that his family might have an issue?
01:03:05Maybe.
01:03:07They may be here tomorrow.
01:03:08What?
01:03:09Girl, you invited a royal family?
01:03:12And I've only done one turkey?
01:03:14Mum, every meal you make could feed the 5,000.
01:03:18Well.
01:03:19It's difficult enough balancing this kind of career with someone,
01:03:23let alone a damn prince.
01:03:25Not to mention missing my family.
01:03:28But you love it, honey.
01:03:31Help me, Mum.
01:03:32What can I do?
01:03:34I know what we can do.
01:03:36I can get your sister.
01:03:38And we can have some fun.
01:03:41I'm sorry, Mum.
01:03:42About everything.
01:03:45That's okay.
01:03:46I love you.
01:03:47I love you, too.
01:03:48Oh.
01:03:48I love you.
01:05:18Calm down, sis.
01:05:20Easy for you to say. You don't have a real family to impress.
01:05:24They come.
01:05:26Don't worry about it, hon. They'll love you. Who wouldn't?
01:05:29Don't worry about it, hon. They'll love you.
01:05:59Don't worry about it, hon. They'll love you, hon. They'll love you, hon. They'll love you, hon. They'll love you.
01:06:04Don't worry about it, hon. It'll be here to see you.
01:06:08It'll be here to be here to keep the mind.
01:06:10How have you got me your spud duty?
01:06:27Oh, peanut potatoes and stop the morning.
01:06:39Merry Christmas.
01:06:40Merry Christmas.
01:06:42How do I look?
01:06:42Very princely.
01:06:44I like it.
01:06:55Don't even move from that mistletoe.
01:07:01Happy, are you?
01:07:02Merry Christmas, don't you?
01:07:04Mum, come get some mistletoe action from the prince.
01:07:06I'm too busy.
01:07:08No offence, Luke.
01:07:09Merry Christmas to you.
01:07:11Merry Christmas.
01:07:11Merry Christmas.

01:07:20Unbelievable.
01:07:22I'm sorry about that.
01:07:23That's okay.
01:07:24They're great.
01:07:25Nice to be popular anyway.
01:07:26Have you heard from your parents?
01:07:29I haven't heard anything.
01:07:30There isn't any signal at the moment.
01:07:33Yeah, I've not got any signal either.
01:07:36Anything I can help with, I'd rather keep busy.
01:07:39You can help me finish the table and get some logs for the fire?
01:07:43Sure.
01:07:50Can we pop the coke in this wine yet?
01:07:52You just wait.
01:07:53Relax.
01:07:54Relax.
01:07:55My heart is beating like a buggered clock.
01:07:57Oh, I'll have some of that.

01:08:00They could be here soon.
01:08:01I'll get some logs.

01:16:18Did you just meet him?
01:16:21He's not going to be happy.
01:16:23I can imagine.
01:16:24Hold on, I'm sorry.
01:16:28This is...
01:16:30Dear Mom,
01:16:48Being back at the cabins remind me of all the amazing times we had as a family.
01:16:55It also reminds me of what was left for you to deal with alone.
01:17:00I left all this with you, and yet I still resented the fact that you were looking to sell it.
01:17:12You have always done your best for us, you and Dad.
01:17:16I was too caught up in my own feelings to consider how difficult it has been for you.
01:17:24I still don't want you to sell the cabins, but I understand if you do.
01:17:32But what I really want is for you and me to work together to bring them back to their best.
01:17:40I want Dad's final wish for this place to become a reality and to run summer camps from here.
01:17:52It'll be tough.
01:17:54I have no idea where we'll find the money.
01:17:58But if you want to try, I'll be here.
01:18:02If the day I spend in the big city, it just makes me miss this place and you even more.
01:18:11I love you with all my heart, Grace.
01:18:21What do you say, Mom?
01:18:24That's your project assistant.
01:18:25Yes.
01:18:26Oh, thank you.
01:18:27Uh, ladies, I'd also very much like to help.
01:18:36Look, of course, but I'd have to employ an electrician to do the wiring, don't you think?
01:18:42Good idea.
01:18:43You sure we'll be okay with that?
01:18:45Yes.
01:18:46And as for finances, well, I have a prince's trust for many charitable ventures,
01:18:54including summer camps for underprivileged children.
01:18:56So, please, don't worry about finances.
01:19:01Oh, look!
01:19:11Oh, my God!
01:19:13Oh, my God!
01:19:14Oh, no!
01:19:16Wow!
01:19:16Oh, my God!
01:19:18Oh, my God!
01:19:19Oh, my God!
01:19:21Oh, my God!
01:19:23Oh, my God!
01:19:24Oh, my God!
01:19:25Oh, my God!
01:19:25Oh, my God!
01:19:25Oh, my God!
01:19:53Oh, my God!
01:19:54Oh, my God!
