05:13have you that is a view but come wake up Robin had been driven to distraction really comfy bed but
05:20I
05:20couldn't open the window because all of that road noise so at feedback how did you sleep scores crashed
05:27I personally think it should be a six oh a six I'm very disappointed with that but today Simon and
05:34Vanessa are putting it all to bed the comments that everyone puts most of them I would say we already
05:40knew about things like the noise from the road there's nothing in there that's particularly upset us so
05:45we won't be different with anybody yeah good morning welcome to the Drayton crown thank you

08:23do you think they can hear us downstairs what are they doing
08:32somerset is said to be the original home of ten pin bowling before the game of somerset skittles was
08:38taken by british settlers to america and adapted today reunited hosts jordan and robin are hoping for

08:53do you think jordan will be there in his in his uniform is going to be pretending to fly i'm
08:58looking
08:58forward to that yeah it's gonna be fun yeah and with everyone inside hello good afternoon the group
09:06meet up with public engagement volunteer steve and three helicopters behind me are all falklands war
09:12veterans this aircraft itself went to hms sheffield and brought back quite a lot of damage and quite
09:18badly burnt sailors from sheffield so robin are you familiar with any of these i actually worked on
09:24seeking i was based at yoverton for two years as it is an active air base you can see armed
09:31personnel
09:31on the gates i was one of those guys for six months i pretty much signed up for anything i
09:36could
09:36to get away from the mundane day to day it was nice to see another side of robin and he
09:42was proud of his
09:42military history well he should be of course i really enjoyed it i did too hosts hitting the spot
09:49the visit picks up speed welcome to concord a phenomenal airplane with a tour of a prototype
09:56of the fastest commercial aircraft to date there's only 20 ever made this is 002 and we actually look
10:03after it for the science museum up in london and the final design which was 20 foot longer than this
10:08would have had capacity for 100 passengers on board history detailed oh champagne the group drink it all in
10:16wow it's narrow isn't it imagine doing 1300 miles an hour in this but at least you're not going to
10:22be
10:22on it for long no no that's true yeah it was the epitome of luxury wasn't it the stars used
10:27this i
10:28can imagine the service on board was just out of this world you probably don't experience anything
10:32like that now unless you're in first class yes yeah concord's very impressive when you see it up close
10:38isn't it one of the biggest regrets to me is that i never managed to fly on it we were
10:42too young
10:42to have the money to spend on such luxury absolutely if i could time travel i'd go back
10:47probably and fly on concord with the afternoon landing smoothly the group get hands-on show us your
10:54helmets guys and make fantasies let's go let's go a reality today jordan is a pilot it's his dream come
11:04true isn't it how's it going in there guys surprisingly comfy are you laughing at me in
11:12this ill-fitting helmet do you know that vision that you gave us all about that cool pilot look
11:17yeah it's like a bobble it was such a great group the jogs and everything is just amazing yeah i'm
11:27just dropping everything aside any feedback until payment day i dread payment day
11:34and as the other guests take the hot seat simon you can be my wingman anytime i'll look after you
11:41sights are set on the evening ahead it's the last drinks so hopefully everybody can just relax and
11:47have a really nice time yeah we can all get slaughtered

20:01let's find out if they'd stay again yay we like that yeah happy about that let's see the next review
20:08i'm ready how clean was the drayton crown a seven got a seven initially looked very clean so that's the
20:16good thing sofa bed found child's comforter everything needs to be checked more yeah dog hair on cushions
20:22there should not have been dog hairs up there at all a couple of hairs in shower any of this
20:28being
20:29found is quite disappointing how are the facilities we got a nine just just shy of perfection spacious
20:35room that's exactly the sort of feedback we're looking for hospitality tray more coffee please if you

21:08with
21:08that fun that's probably you yeah professional again probably me good comments happy with that
21:14how clean was the drayton crown we got a five that's low toilet pass tissue test i'm not sure what
21:22that
21:22is but we've passed it so we're happy about that badly stained mattresses i think that's a bit picky
21:28really if you've got a clean mattress protector and sheets bathroom plugs filthy if there is dirt on
21:35there then yeah that's a bit of an oversight from us dust and cobwebs so that needs looking at how
21:41was
21:41breakfast 10 that's exactly what we want good breakfast perfect you can't get any better than
21:47that really can you take care bye bye we've got two yeses i think this will be a full house
21:53yes three out
21:54of three that's pretty good happy with that yeah i feel really good actually that's a good yeah after
22:00reading those reviews i think we could win this yeah i think we're in a good chance of bringing that
22:04plaque
22:04home next time the hosts face the final showdown this is judgment day as bills are paid for that
22:13price point the facilities that you have it's not really what we go for scores are settled pillows
22:19should be washed are you saying ours weren't washed i mean they had stains and a winner announced
22:26and the winner is i want to believe that no one play any games we've been truly honest with the
