00:01The Great Escapers, brought to you by Jet 2 Holidays.
00:05Ahoy there, ladies!
00:08Stars from Britain's best-loved shows are jetting off for a holiday showdown.
00:13Is anyone else nervous? Yeah.
00:15Legends of Corrie, I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here,
00:18Loose Women and The Chase are competing against their fellow castmates.
00:24Hey, no road rage please.
00:26To prove they can deliver the best holiday adventure.
00:30You like that break a bit, do you watch?
00:31I'm not even pressing the break.
00:33Each famous face...
00:34Can we get back to coronation, please?
00:36O-M-G.
00:37DJ Destroyer!
00:38...will plan their dream day in the sun.
00:40We are Loose Women. Together we can do anything.
00:43And at the end of the week...
00:45They'll vote to decide who will be crowned the greatest escaper.
00:50Are we all thinking, I want to win?
00:52Yes.
00:53Only one of us can be the greatest escaper.
00:56Who is it gonna be?
01:00The Spanish Costa Brava.
01:07A delicious mix of stunning beaches, quaint villages and dramatic coastline.
01:12As well as being a holiday favourite, it's the perfect spot to battle for the title of The Greatest Escaper.
01:19Swapping the studio for a showdown in the sun are three of Loose Women's most outspoken stars.
01:26First to check in, actress and broadcaster Denise Welsh.
01:31I like to fly and flop.
01:34All I want to do is lie on the sun bed and scroll on my phone.
01:38Morning!
01:39Morning!
01:40What do they say?
01:41If you look like your passport picture, you're not well enough to travel.
01:44They are.
01:45Having said that, I would like to win.
01:47So on this trip, I don't just want to do what I normally do.
01:51I want to try some activities with a little bit of flopping in between.
01:57Our next escaper is actress and presenter, Sinetra Sarka.
02:01I'd say a typical lovely holiday for me would be lying by the pool, good book, good music, maybe a cocktail.
02:10Did somebody mention a Bloody Mary?
02:13Hello.
02:14Morning.
02:15Morning.
02:16I think I look like the kind of person nobody thinks is going to win, but I think I might actually win.
02:23And our final competitor is presenter, author and charity founder, Katie Piper MBE.
02:29This trip is very different for me because I have not been on holiday about my children, like, at all.
02:35And maybe I'd just like to let go a bit.
02:37I always get that moment.
02:38Like, have I got my passport?
02:39I always get.
02:41Would I describe myself as competitive?
02:43Yeah, I would.
02:44Girls holiday!
02:45Oh my God!
02:46So gloves are off.
02:47I'm going to enjoy the vibes, enjoy the company and may the best person win.
02:53We're off!
02:54Bye England!
02:55It's just a two hour flight from the UK to the Costa Brava and the Loose Women's Hotel in Tossa de Mar.
03:06Here we are.
03:07With our Loose Ladies checked in.
03:10Cheers girls ladies!
03:12Cheers ladies!
03:13It's a chance to check out the competition before it all kicks off tomorrow.
03:16Are we all thinking, I want to win?
03:20Yeah.
03:21I mean...
03:22Of course you are.
03:23I didn't think I was competitive until my whole family when I said, well I'm not competitive.
03:27They all spat their drink out at the same time as if, what are you talking about?
03:32I actually also think you are very steely and determined.
03:37Who me?
03:38Yeah.
03:39I'm the one that flips the board game at Christmas.
03:40Yeah.
03:41You're the bad loser.
03:42Yeah.
03:43It's really bad.
03:44What are you like to holiday with?
03:45Are you a bit sort of out there on holiday or do you really just switch off?
03:48Well obviously my dancing on the tables naked days went with, you know, when I gave up alcohol.
03:53And these days, things that used to be there, I can play, um, keepy-oppy with.
03:59Stop it!
04:05It's day one of the competition.
04:07Katie Piper is in the hot seat today.
04:09She's meeting customer helper Gio.
04:12Katie!
04:13Gio!
04:14Good to see you.
04:15To help her build a winning day.
04:17So when I was at home researching the trip, I found this thing called the human tower.
04:22Yes.
04:23I was just like, wow, that would be so cool because that's about leaning on each other,
04:27achieving things as a group.
04:29I'm just hoping it might like bond us a bit closer.
04:32Absolutely.
04:33It's a really, really old tradition that we do here dating back all the way to the 18th century.
04:37Oh wow.
04:38It's all about community, you know, working together, teamwork to achieve this fantastic thing.
04:42I'll speak to the group that kind of do it.
04:44I'll tell them that you guys really want to get involved and be hands-on and fully immerse yourself in their culture.
04:48Once you've stood on someone's shoulders, you really know them.
04:51Absolutely, absolutely.
04:52Well, let's just hope it's something relaxing because I'm so lazy, Sinatra.
04:57We are all people who like to be horizontal as much as possible.
05:01I would like to take the ladies out on a boat.
05:04OK.
05:05I'm thinking like catamaran.
05:06Well, we can absolutely make that happen.
05:08And I think it's nice because, you know, it's your day one.
05:10You need to set the tone for the competition and that's quite a good showstopper.
05:13I feel because we are so close to the sea, it's got to be something to do with the water.
05:17I hope it's not because I'm frightened of the sea.
05:20Well, me too.
05:21Unless they're trying to get us to recreate Baywash.
05:23You know, run, run, run along, run along.
05:25Good luck with that.
05:26I don't think so.
05:27I'm really excited about my day.
05:30Sun is shining, always puts you in a good mood.
05:34Kicking off with culture, Katie's first activity is in the historic town of Tordera.
05:41A chance to get to know each other more intimately, along with a few dozen Spaniards.
05:46I wanted to come and do this because it's incredibly difficult and challenging.
05:51But you need to pull together and do it together and help one another.
05:55I don't know what their reaction is going to be.
05:57They might be slightly nervous at first.
05:59Hector.
06:00Hello.
06:01Hi, Katie.
06:02Good to meet you.
06:03We have no idea what this is.
06:04We are Castellas.
06:05Castellas, right?
06:06Yeah, we are doing human towers.
06:08What does human towers mean?
06:10Human towers mean towers made by people.
06:14Quickly, each other.
06:16You climb on top of each other's shoulders.
06:17What are they?
06:18No!
06:19Are you crazy?
06:20Are you mad?
06:21Have you done this?
06:22No, but I'm sure I'll make a success of it.
06:25I've actually just wet myself.
06:27I think this is definitely going to be a little bit of a team building, bonding exercise.
06:33Hold my hands.
06:34We are loose women.
06:35Together we can do anything, alright?
06:37Oh my gosh.
06:38Starting as an elaborate folk dance, they've been building human towers here since the
06:4518th century.
06:49While the strongest make the bass, the smallest better not have vertigo, as they are the cherry
06:54on the top.
06:55Very amazing, don't you think?
07:00Yeah, look at that.
07:01Yeah.
07:02I can just imagine, though, the way that my Louis was.
07:05He would have gone...
07:06My mum's making me go to the town square and stand on Uncle John's shoulders.
07:10Oh my God.
07:11We really are out of our comfort zone.
07:23All I want is as many photos as possible of this, because this is something I can guarantee
07:29will never happen again.
07:31We'll never do it again.
07:32Only when the tiniest gets to the summit is the tower complete.
07:36I think probably they're a little bit anxious.
07:38Are they fully on board yet?
07:40No.
07:41Do they have any choice?
07:42No.
07:43So, now we will place you and your job is like to push the back of the people.
07:47Something happens, you will have to push a little bit.
07:50Okay.
07:51It won't happen anything but...
07:52To support the others?
07:53Yes, just to support the base.
07:55One here.
07:56You will be here.
07:57You have to push this back and support here.
08:01And you're here.
08:04Here.
08:05Push here.
08:06I feel like I'm pushing this poor girl over.
08:09Now you have to put your arms up.
08:12And with the hand.
08:14No.
08:15You.
08:16Up.
08:17And you here.
08:18Well, I need to mention that I'm married.
08:21It's not British to have somebody's balls in your lower back.
08:25And then I was kind of leaning my pubic bone into like somebody else in front of me.
08:29In England, some people don't even let you like hug them when you greet them.
08:32It's important to not look up.
08:33If it falls, you can get hurt.
08:34But how do we know if they fall?
08:35These people?
08:36We'll tell you.
08:37Yes.
08:38It's quite stressful.
08:39I was a little bit cynical, but I felt an energy.
08:42And I felt that I was really part of the support team.
08:45And it felt lovely and important.
08:46I just love the theatre.
08:47It was a little bit cynical, but I felt an energy.
08:52And I felt that I was really part of the support team.
09:11And it felt lovely and important.
09:13I just love the theatre of it all.
09:15They dress for it.
09:16They're proud of it.
09:17There's a real community spirit that you can feel inside there.
09:20I'm really glad you had a go at doing this because it's something we would never in a million years have tried.
09:25I think Katie made a sterling effort.
09:28So she's going to be hard to beat.
09:30Well done.
09:31Hey.
09:32You were brilliant.
09:34I've faced a lot of like physical and like mental challenges in my life at a young age, in my 20s.
09:40I was badly burned with sulfuric acid.
09:42Somebody that I had begun to date and then rejected, arranged for someone to attack me.
09:48But I've really moved on.
09:50And it's really taught me that sometimes when you think everything's falling apart in your world,
09:55what it's actually doing is really like forming your character and building your resilience.
10:00Nobody ever found their strength on a mediocre day.
10:03You know, it's in those more testing times that we work out what we're really capable of.
10:08At the Loose Women Christmas party, there'll be over 20 of us there.
10:15Perfect.
10:16We'll do it there.
10:17Perfect.
10:18Magic.
10:19Janice.
10:20Janice.
10:21Janice.
10:22Janice.
10:23Janice.
10:24Janice.
10:25Janice.
10:26Janice.
10:27After spending the morning being clambered over
10:29the ladies have adopted a more traditional loose women formation.
10:33For a spot of lunch.
10:34We'll get some food, we'll get a bit of energy.
10:36Despite it being Katie's day in true.
10:39Panel show fashion.
10:41This is where my books might come in handy.
10:43It's Senetra who's taken charge.
10:45What is the local espiality?
10:49The tortillas of tortillas.
10:51Oh, so tortillas is a speciality of this local area.
10:55Ooh, I think I'm about to tell them I've got a broken tooth.
10:59My girls' holiday does have a really nice vibe about it,
11:02so for me to be doing one now at the grand old age of 51 is lovely.
11:08Have you told the other Liz women that we're doing this?
11:10Well, on the WhatsApp group, I nearly mentioned,
11:12oh, guess what, we're all away, and I thought, oh, no, that sounds so smug.
11:15Do you think they'd be generous? Yeah, I do.
11:18Rightly so. I mean, we are having a great time.
11:21We don't often get the chance to socialise,
11:24so this is a lovely opportunity to get out on the tune.
11:28This has been a very, very good start, I have to say.
11:31You're doing well, Katie.
11:33Unpack then swim, or jump right in.
11:43Darling, hold my head!
11:46The Great Escapers, brought to you by Jet 2 Holidays.
11:50Sunbed snoozing, or speedboat cruising?
11:54Darling, hold my head!
11:57The Great Escapers, brought to you by Jet 2 Holidays.
12:01Three of Loose Women's finest have swapped the studio
12:11for the sun-kissed Spanish Costa Brava,
12:14where they're competing over who can put on the best day out.
12:18It's Katie Piper's day today.
12:20She's brought the girls to Platya Gran,
12:22one of the most popular beaches in the Costa Brava,
12:25and Katie has gone all out for the win.
12:27Trust me, trust me.
12:29Right, turn around, look over here, ignore the screaming children,
12:32and look over there at that boat.
12:34That's where I'm taking you.
12:36The posh boat?
12:37Yes!
12:38It's luxurious!
12:39Hang on a minute, there's got to be a catch.
12:42Katie has hired a swanky catamaran
12:45to take the ladies to a neighbouring bay.
12:48When you've got to a certain stage of life,
12:50you want a little bit of luxury,
12:52you want it to feel a bit bougie.
12:54I have a bit of a sort of gap in my 20s
12:56when I was primarily in hospital,
12:58so I just didn't holiday for years at all.
13:00So, yeah, I really look forward to my holidays.
13:03Beautiful!
13:06It's not just about winning the competition,
13:08I want to give my friends a good day.
13:09Hunky crew!
13:11So I think that adds a little bit of, like,
13:13nervous energy for me.
13:14This is the life.
13:16This is like...
13:17I feel like I'm in Duran Duran video all of a sudden.
13:19Duran Duran, what?
13:20Showing your age!
13:24Are you going to jump in at any point?
13:25Absolutely!
13:26Are you a jumper in? Sinatra, are you?
13:27No.
13:28But I think even if you don't want to jump in,
13:30maybe you can, like, hang your legs off, have a dip.
13:32Have you heard about free diving? Is it free diving?
13:35Oh, yeah, I'm not up for anything like that.
13:37I've done, like, wild swimming.
13:39No.
13:40Yeah, and it was December when I did it.
13:41No!
13:42Why?
13:43It's very exhilarating.
13:44It releases dopamine.
13:45It can be good for, like, depression, anxiety.
13:47Like, there is this thing of, like,
13:49oh, my God, if I've done that, I can do anything.
13:51Can I ask you something, Katie?
13:53Do your scars ever respond to sea waterfalls?
13:56No, the only thing is I'm not really supposed to go in,
13:58like, the sun...
13:59I use, like, SPF.
14:00You know, I can't go in the sun.
14:01I try and wear a hat and glasses.
14:02But I don't remember that I've got scars.
14:04I don't feel, like, conscious.
14:06I do everything that I did before.
14:08I'm in the skimpiest bikini.
14:10Well, you've got the most fabulous body.
14:12I've got an eyeful from here.
14:24We're gonna have to get in the water.
14:25I won't jump off this boat.
14:26What are you scared of?
14:27I'm scared of the deep water.
14:30I cannot put my head under the water at any point.
14:33So I am going to joyfully watch you, push you, whatever.
14:37So you won't swim with your head above the water here?
14:39Sure.
14:40I won't go... I won't jump off this boat.
14:46I've had so many times when I can't do things because of reasons out of my control,
14:52where I have unexpected operations or, like, medical emergencies,
14:56and I'm not allowed to even shower.
14:58I'm in.
14:59Nice.
15:00I'm in.
15:01Oh, it is actually...
15:02Now, now it's actually really nice.
15:04Why don't your shoulders are under?
15:05Refreshing.
15:06We're here now and I'm gonna jump in because, like, in a month's time,
15:10something could go wrong with my eye and I'm not allowed to get it wet.
15:13I'm not allowed to be near any bacterias, anything like that.
15:16If I ever get presented with an opportunity to do something,
15:19and I can, I will do it.
15:21Go on, girl.
15:22One, two, three.
15:23Whoo!
15:28It's intimidating!
15:29Is it?
15:33I'm jealous now.
15:35I'm just wondering.
15:37Shall I do it?
15:43Here we go. Nana's coming in.
15:45Yay!
15:46Come on.
15:47I'm gonna go as far as this step.
15:48There you go.
15:49There you go.
15:50Come on.
15:51Who said it wasn't freezing in here?
15:54You can do it, Denise.
15:56Go on.
15:57Yeah.
15:58That's it.
15:59You're halfway there now.
16:00You may as well carry on.
16:01You're halfway...
16:02Yeah!
16:03Oh!
16:04Oh!
16:05Oh!
16:06Oh!
16:07Oh!
16:08Oh!
16:09Oh!
16:10Oh!
16:11I've had so much fun.
16:12Like, I don't know if I'm allowed to,
16:14because I'm supposed to be hosting them.
16:16I think the others did enjoy it
16:17because I think it was a nice mixture
16:18of a bit of relaxation
16:20and then they both got in the water.
16:22I feel like today's been a real success.
16:24I did work hard to pull all the stops out.
16:28I did it.
16:29That's it.
16:30That's me done.
16:31It's been like, you know,
16:32a bit of a feel-good dopamine hit.
16:34Can you please give me more praise for doing it?
16:36Thank you!
16:38Oh, girls, I did it!
16:40Woo!
16:41Oh, my gosh, that was just amazing.
16:43I'm not a brilliant swimmer,
16:45but there's something really magical
16:46about lying in the sea,
16:48and it was gorgeous.
16:49Really good start to the holiday.
16:51It's just been really relaxing,
16:53and I didn't, in a million years,
16:55think that I would venture into the sea.
16:57So I am very proud of my little old self
17:00for doing that.
17:02I feel like a new woman!
17:04Woo!
17:05That was just what I needed!
17:07I've loved this activity, Katie.
17:11Absolutely.
17:12Katie has started the activities
17:15with a bang.
17:17This one is going to be hard to beat,
17:19but I think I am going to beat you.
17:23I feel like we could stay here all day, though,
17:25like, see the sun's setting.
17:26I could definitely stay here all day.
17:33It's day two of our Loose Women getaway,
17:36and after Katie's strong start yesterday,
17:38it's time for Denise to put her money
17:40where her mouth is and see if she can top it.
17:43I hope that the girls will enjoy my day,
17:46because all the activities mean something to me.
17:49I am apparently competitive.
17:51I think that's utter rubbish.
17:53But would I like to win? Yes.
17:55Do I think I'll win? Yes.
17:58How was yesterday?
17:59The girl done good.
18:00Katie did a good day, but I want to do a better one.
18:03So I've got some ideas.
18:04Horse riding.
18:05Wow, okay.
18:07I started when I was nine.
18:09Okay.
18:10And from the moment I walked into the stable yard,
18:13I was hooked.
18:14And it's kind of a nostalgia thing about when I was little
18:17and things I used to do,
18:18so that would be lovely to share that with the girls.
18:20Absolutely.
18:21From where we are just now, about 20 minutes away,
18:22there's a fantastic nature reserve,
18:24and it's called Montenegre.
18:26A lot of people come here specifically for mountain biking,
18:29all that sort of thing,
18:30but it's also very well known for its horse riding trails.
18:33Oh, good.
18:34Yes, do you do all the jumps and the tricks
18:35and everything like that?
18:36Yeah, I don't know about tricks.
18:37Okay.
18:38But I can do a little bit of jumping, you know.
18:41Wow, okay.
18:42I definitely want to impress the girls in today.
18:43Of course.
18:44Absolutely.
18:45I want to show off.
18:46I am somebody that hates a surprise.
18:48I need to know climate.
18:49I need to know clothes.
18:50Yeah, I can tell that about you.
18:51Yeah, I need to know hair.
18:52I know Denise is the opposite of that,
18:54and she'll go,
18:55what, whatever, let's take our clothes off.
18:57And actually, don't say that.
18:58I'm not even wearing matching underwear today.
19:00I'm really not up for that.
19:02Listen, I'm a team player, but not to that extent.
19:05And then come to the evening.
19:08The neat oot.
19:09The neat oot.
19:10The neat oot.
19:11I would like an evening that incorporates a drag act
19:15or a drag show.
19:16Okay.
19:17Okay.
19:18Well, listen, I can make a few phone calls
19:19and get that all arranged 100%.
19:21She's also, I think, the most competitive out of the three.
19:24Oh, do you think so?
19:25Between you and me.
19:26I know you and me have got a kind of fighter spirit inside.
19:29Yeah.
19:30I think Denzi really wants this.
19:33What I want to get out of today is winning.
19:38I'm only joking.
19:39Not really.
19:40I think they're quite gung ho.
19:41Unless they've got a real fear of horses.
19:43And if they have, that's fine.
19:44I just don't want it that one of them ends up being better than me.
19:48With the friendly part of friendly competition already out the window,
19:52Denise is sneaking off to saddle up.
19:56Hello now.
19:58Here we're going to go.
19:59We've got on the door.
20:00Thank you guys, ladies.
20:01Hello, we're going to go to Los Angeles.
20:03We're going to go to Los Angeles.
20:04We've got a good road for a couple of people.
20:05Can we go to Los Angeles?
20:06We're going to go to Los Angeles.
20:07We've got the traffic on the road, at Los Angeles.
20:08side of Santa Susana it's becoming like a bit of a covert operation where I feel
20:16like all this secrecy she's actually low-key wanting to really win this a
20:2240-minute drive south of Tossa Tomar is Santa Susana the gateway to park del
20:28Montenegro el corridor and a loose woman in stirrups come on god don't say that she's a
20:45dark horse literally let's go so let's do you do you ride oh she's brilliant so elegant
20:58last thing I expected I'm so scared of animals any animal yeah yeah for me this is a real rug pull
21:07because I didn't even consider animals on this whole trip because I'm not very good with animals
21:11I'm just a little bit scared of them I've never even considered you as a horse rider and now I see you
21:17it just suits you so much is it relaxing well it is for me it wouldn't be for you because you'd be
21:21terrified so we're not going to get to see you on one oh yeah I won't try it I mean do you not know
21:27I had to play a vet on television petrified of animals the minutes they sit they say action fine
21:31in a million years I just would not do this what would I be doing today on holiday probably scrolling
21:39through my phone feeling a little bit isolated and on my own all of a sudden like when I'm with
21:45the girls I feel like yeah I can do anything now I'm on my own with just a horse called flicker I
21:51don't know what to do I'm up I may not be getting down but I'm up hello she's flicker I love flicker
22:01and Sinatra right so just just put my foot in there okay just hold on to here I was really
22:18conscious that I hadn't done this before and I wanted to enjoy it but there was also like some
22:25natural instincts in me that are like I don't do this I don't know how this feels I don't want to get
22:30on a breeze you can feel the horse breathing it's like you know it's a living animal shorten your
22:35reins even shorter the more control that's it I feel like I'm pulling this no you know it doesn't
22:40matter that fine you've got you've got no you've got to control look every time I pull it he wants
22:45to go forward do you know something I'll go first and then yours will just naturally move you might
22:50not want the girl with you okay look he's following he's just following now you'll just follow
22:55you know because they know they're going back he knows you're the leader so he knows what to do
22:58oh Denise this is beautiful isn't it look at the forest oh you've pulled off a 10 out of 10 here
23:12thank you this is lovely
23:14it's just nice to get out of the town isn't it yeah this is very peaceful right
23:23there is something about being around horses they are just a calming influence I'm very open about
23:34my own mental health and about mental illness mine started as severe postnatal depression
23:42most women will make a full recovery sadly I didn't and it's funny because there's something
23:48healing about horses you don't have to be on them just around them do you know what's so funny then
23:54right like at work you're so honest about all your struggles and like depression and stuff and I feel
24:00like seeing you today on a horse I'm like this is Denise's therapy do you think it's your happy place
24:06I mean it wouldn't make me well if I was poorly but it would make me better as I was recovering
24:12yeah I gravitate towards them if I feel stressed or anxious yeah I feel like we're seeing a different
24:19side of you here that we wouldn't see at work and I feel at work like you do talk about riding a lot
24:25but it's just not this kind of riding how very dare you I have no idea what you're talking about
24:31how's Sinatra oh my god I mean I've never had this feeling of a horse
24:38between your thighs and having your legs open for this long as well
24:43wow it's a really weird feeling unless you spend most nights with your legs akimbo
24:48oh yeah really feel it because I'll really feel it tomorrow please let it be over soon
24:54Denise is so impressive really she's a natural you can tell she feels so at home on a horse
25:00you can tell this is something she's grown up with and even Katie you know can tell you she's got
25:04ability she was she was in in a bit of a good zone as well whereas I was completely out of mind

26:48Denise Welch is in charge today and for her final activity it's glad rags on for a night on the tomb
26:55from horse riding to drag is quite elite a sangria thank you Dan I'll carry you home and I know the
27:08kind of girls that they are that they'd be really up for a lap but drag has another layer a nod to my
27:15dad vin my dad that we lost in 2021 loved drag and eventually started rising up the ranks of the
27:25amateur circuit I had a dad that pretty much enjoyed every night he just loved people he loved all of my
27:33friends he loved my gay friends he loved my gay friends he loved the LGBTQ community and he loved drag
27:39this type of night my dad lived for him and mom went to a party in fancy dress and dad wore this mini dress
27:48blonde hair headband and mum did his makeup and Raquel would appear and being dad he got
27:57up by the piano and he did a few gags so people started to go then would you come to our party as
28:03Raquel how did your mom feel my mom loved it she'd she'd do the old eye roll you know with her gin and
28:10bitter lemon oh here he is but if he didn't do it she'd be the one going are you not gonna go and put
28:17your stuff on I just wanted you guys to certain confidence to be able to get up and do that your dad
28:24must have passed that on to you which is why you're so good at being I am terrified of audience
28:30participation so are we gonna have to get up the front please don't let that be the end of this
28:34day because it's the end of our friendship if it is I'm telling you about that tonight oh we have got
28:40a wonderful drag show but I need some new drag daughters I'm just wondering where I'm going to find
28:50three gorgeous drag George oh my goodness
29:01come on my dear let's give them some encouragement talk about pushing me out my comfort zone it was a
29:08bit like to have a gun to my head I was like I'll do it I'll do it I promise don't kill me
29:12I had no time to decide that I wasn't up for it I just took a big slur for sangria and then
29:19suddenly we were just on stage you'd have to be pretty miserable to not love a night at a good
29:27drag bar I'm not sure I would be that hand in the air volunteering but I feel like I like having a
29:33laugh I try not to take myself too seriously it was like an ad break in loose women to be honest
29:38we're gonna do the confidence catwalk our lovely audience tonight are gonna cheer us on because
29:47it's about having fun enjoyment you're feeling good yes yes yes absolutely fine we think so I was
29:55taking them out for pasta okay let's get some music going
30:02I'm an actress for a living I have to actually pretend I had a persona when when literally that
30:12moment came for me to have to strut in my head I have to click into any character I could find just
30:19for the moment I was laughing my socks off at the two of them because all I could hear was just you
30:37wait till after this we're gonna absolutely kill you do you know what I hate to say it but I think
30:47Denise has outdone me because this morning it was really special for me and then tonight it was
30:52light-hearted we lost our inhibitions you know like it's it's just a nice thing I mean Denise Welsh
30:58has ruined me any reputation I had before now has gone and like the horse riding I'm not rushing to do it
31:06again however it was worth it for the laugh once in a lifetime I repeat once in a lifetime experience
31:15so let's do cheers to Vin cheers to Vin and I'm gonna do a little cheers to me mum Annie for putting up with him
31:23I think my day has been pretty special I know that the girls have loved it put it this way I had a
31:33brilliant day yesterday and we have some actress to do tomorrow so I don't know what she's gonna pull
31:38out the bag but at the moment I'm feeling quietly confident you better walk fast Denise Welsh because
31:46I am coming for you it's Sinatra's turn to host and after brushing off all the glitter from last
31:58night's drag show she's planning a more Zen day today I'm gonna bring us all down in a chilled end of
32:08holiday vibe and give them something they've never tried before I want them to go I loved it and
32:13hopefully I might just win Sinatra hi hello how are you so looking forward to your health dude good
32:22believe you're the man who can apparently so my thing right which is like I'm really interested in
32:28self-care wellness like stuff that's unusual just off the beaten track this is what she has told us to
32:35wear yeah so I got the memo of like loose comfortable active wear loose comfortable well yeah but you know
32:42you are loose and comfortably active much more than than me Sinatra is more in my camp what's she
32:48into then like because you know her outside of work she's quite sort of Zenish I do actually know a
32:53place that does you know the sound baths and that sort of thing okay they also do something called aerial
32:59yoga which I'm sure you've probably heard of I believe it is quite easy to get the hang well
33:03pardon the pun to get the hang of when she's actually in it there but um I I think I I think that
33:09could be a real left field surprise perfect so that's the morning so then I'm really into my
33:14food what I've found yeah the chef called Yolanda okay runs this beautiful estate where she has like
33:22a floral garden with all these flowers everything in her garden you can eat now I don't quite know what
33:28we can do within that garden but I wondered if you could have a floral feast a floral feast that
33:34sounds absolutely fantastic yeah and that is one definitely you need to leave with me actually she
33:39hasn't given us many clues she's been very tight-lipped she might just pull something amazing out of the
33:45bag Sinatra's kicking off her day in Lorette de Mar a popular spot famous for its golden beaches but
33:53the ladies won't need a bucket and spade for where they're going oh don't even talk to me about
34:02nothing I think I might be able to help you with it let's see oh you see a sign what does that sign
34:08say yoga shala for me self-care has become really important just as I was approaching 50 I just felt
34:17the sort of ticking clock going you need to look after yourself more I've never done it before so
34:22I wanted you two to try something I'd never done I've done it before I fell upside down oh you're
34:27kidding oh my god I was absolutely rubbish aerial yoga is a mix of acrobatics and traditional yoga
34:35done inside a hammock at least it'll distract Denise from her achy legs now we're gonna start doing one of
34:46the principal poses of the aero yoga okay it's a little bit hard but you can put your feet here yes
34:58oh okay exactly well done well done well I can't put my ankles together either I'm gonna think about me
35:09yeah all my nananus is gonna come out now it's strong yeah well yeah that's good Katie you can feel
35:19like that it's like meditation vibes I was excited to try it again to see if I was any better can I
35:25just sit on it like a swing at the park yes it's way and the answer is a resounding no oh my god this
35:35is ridiculous okay if you uncomfortable okay well done girls I'll just watch and guide for a minute
35:42yes very good core Katie very good glutes yep all good and relax and yes what about my hands
35:51oh yeah oh that feels great very flattering on your bum is it really I'm sure it looks fabulous
36:01when was the last time any of us went on a swing really apart from when you were a kid you haven't
36:05got the license to do that and I feel like we've just given ourselves permission to be children again
36:15for a moment this is my out of office folks the floating feeling from the hammock is meant to
36:31decompress the spine and hips for a proper chill out we're gonna stay cocooned in our in our little
36:39wraps especially when teamed with a sound bath where the vibrations give a real zen experience do you
36:45find it easy to relax in your in your sort of everyday lives to nature self-care is so part of my life now
36:52that I'd make space to go I'm gonna have a massage now and I'm gonna switch off or I'm gonna have a sound
36:58breath I make space for watching eight-hour binge sessions of true crime as well and I can switch
37:04off with that nothing like a good homicide to let you let go of all those worries don't think we've
37:12forgotten about you at home because you could also be in with a chance to win a seven-night holiday to
37:17the Costa Brava courtesy of jet two holidays we're also throwing in five thousand pounds spending money

38:08greatest escapers it's day three of the competition and after a morning of hanging around doing aerial
38:15yoga honestly then I'm not joking you did really well thank you dear sinetra's brought the ladies to
38:22the rural village of Fonteta a 50-minute drive up the coast from Tossa de Mar oh so that sure this is
38:32pretty look it looks a bit like a French like vineyard I think you'll be pleasantly surprised
38:39well there's herbs there's vegetables yeah walking through here is so clean and it's so fresh the
38:49second half of my day which I'm very excited about it's all about like yummy food that you wouldn't
38:55ever find if you didn't know about it wow I feel like it's an extra sport sister an oasis of calm and
39:01I instantly unclenched my jaw drop my shoulders this is stunning local chef Yolanda bustos will be
39:09cooking them a special meal and let's just say the foods a bit more niche than the ITV canteen
39:15this wonderful garden it's a well here imagine it us is a place that I grow my own flowers edible
39:22flowers and look at these roses that you can eat all the roses yes that's right edible roses but not
39:31the chocolate kind I am a little bit worried because they both let it be known they don't
39:36like fancy food they don't like picky little bits of food they like a proper sandwich or a proper steak
39:41and I'm thinking can I turn them around so let's see I can eat this yes you can eat this when you cook
39:48it it's like magic I'm from a place called Newcastle in the north of England can you put these in a pie
39:55in a pie in a pie yeah I'm not I'm not an adventurous eater you know I'm not a nouvelle
40:05cuisine flour on the top person I'm a Geordie so I like fish and chips and I like pies and look at look at
40:16these flowers and this is all edible I will show you how to do it this is a hummus of eggplant of
40:24aubergine and almonds look at this yes this one take the petals like this and now eat no would you
40:35like a bit of garlic in your horse I'm okay thanks oh my word and this is all the olive oil almonds and
40:41aubergine eggplant mm-hmm heaven did I enjoy eating the flowers no especially because you and Sinatra
40:55like you had a pasty going oh wow with no pasties in sight sorry Denise we'll be back yeah Yolanda has
41:05sent off the gang with a list of safe edible flowers to pick is this a dahlia no uh well that's a rose
41:14that's a rose those are roses the pearl is that the courgette I am so unnatural in a garden that I have
41:23astroturf oh no you're not one of those people I've pulled a hole oh my goodness you're hungry
41:30is that a weed but I found something on the end of it the fact that we're going to be able to pick
41:36our own flowers and then use it in food is something I never thought I'd do we need to have each other's
41:40back because I don't want to suddenly drop dead from the wrong flower do you know what's making me
41:44laugh so much yeah when you think of a loose women girls holiday you don't imagine them foraging
41:50for wild flowers and birds it will come as a surprise to them how is the harvest we don't
41:56know what we've got you Yolanda what is this this is a dahlia yes this one and this one is also a
42:04dahlia we've got like a free course meal here next step is a go dinner with all the plants and the flowers
42:13I've tried loads of things today to see what would make them feel like they were switching off because
42:25for me my day maybe has been a little bit more sedate in some ways but I think it's really relaxed
42:31us and switched our brains off in a way that I hoped that it would oh here she comes
42:37yeah oh wow yes I know this is there for the appetizers this is the tempura with the flowers that
42:45you harvest enjoy your meal ladies this is to you thank you so much thank you I've already thought
42:55about all the people I need to tell about this place because just looking at this no we don't
42:59no we don't tell people about this place oh yeah keep it to ourselves I was very interested to see
43:06that zen side of you because I always think of you as someone who would go oh I haven't got time for
43:10that I haven't got because we're not gym bunnies the pair of us not at all so and when you said
43:14today when we were on the aerial swings you said I can't still my body or my mind so coming to
43:19something like this allows me to be still so that was so true it's nice to know that we've had a
43:25part in this though isn't it so you're still craving a pie hey I'm a Geordie I'll always crave a pie
43:31do you know what I would like to win because I think this was magical it was better than I expected
43:38I could tell the girls love it of all the loose women I would say I know Sinatra the least and I
43:45think I've seen this real side to her that we don't see as an actress or we don't see on loose and I
43:51suppose this is the private her you know she's really tries to make time to sort of stop and be
43:57still and I suppose what she's done is let us into that self-care part of her world and I think I got
44:03closer to her I kind of felt I had it in the bag last night I don't know now so to pick a winner
44:11is going to be very hard but that's why we're here and that's what we've got to do so we'll see let
44:16the best girl win it's the final day of the competition and after spending the week frolicking
44:27their way around the Costa Brava there's one loose end for our women to tie up crowning the greatest
44:33escaper if I won it would be a nice thing to go back to Lucerne and be like hey guys you're looking
44:40up the winner here the word win suggests greatness so yeah you know who wouldn't want to actually win
44:46it's the final day we're about to make our decision as to who has won the pressure is on it's decision
44:56time first of all Katie that catamaran gave us all the chance to get to know each other from scratch it
45:02was the first yeah intro we had I learned so much about you that I didn't know about from before and you
45:08actually thought not just what you would enjoy what we would enjoy and then with you that horse
45:14riding it's like the version of you we get at work is is your fun and maybe I saw a little bit more of
45:20a calmer quieter you even like imagine if I go back to Luce and tell them about the quiet Denise
45:26they'll say how lucky you are and then of course Sinatra I didn't realize until this trip how into
45:34wellness and Zen you are will I have a dahlia sandwich again probably not but the evening that
45:42you organized for us I mean that just blew me away and I'll be telling people about that forever I think
45:48but I think because of the horse riding I ended up choosing your day as the winner for me thank you
45:55thank you I was swayed by the beautiful evening activity but I'm going for Katie it was because of the
46:05human tower the fact that you took us there and gave us an experience of something that was so Spanish
46:12it just tipped it for me which leaves me with the most difficult you know decision one of your days I
46:20could do with everyone and enjoy every single day of the week and one of your activities I could
46:26only do with you two and so because of that I'm giving it to you Denise oh congratulations thank you
46:35so much if there's anyone in the UK that I'm happy to lose to it's Denise Walsh winner winner chicken dinner
46:43and I'm not remotely competitive but yes what was important is what the girls said about me
46:50they bought into the fact that those days meant something to me and that was very very special
46:55ultimately the reason Denise won is because I'd only do that day with Denise and Katie so I'm looking
47:01forward to us all being on the panel together because I know it'll have a little extra bond there
47:04we've been in bikinis we've been sweating in our dresses we've been chilling in the evenings and I
47:10suppose we've just let go and it's been a joy to get to know both of them better it's nice to be
47:16important but it's more important to be nice
47:46pool dipping or margarita sipping
47:56the great escapers brought to you by jet two holidays
48:03you
48:03you
