00:02Rich holidays

00:03Look at that!

00:05I can't imagine waking up to that every morning!

00:07Are the stuff of dreams

00:08Oh my God!

00:10We've got our own plunge post days!

00:12But can cheap getaways

00:15be just as fun?

00:17I'm having a good time!

00:18I'm not getting in that!

00:20For the first time, wealthy jet-setters

00:22This is the life!

00:24And hard-up holiday-makers

00:26They do look really posh

00:28Travel together

00:29on two wildly different trips

00:32Do you guys drink alcohol?

00:34No

00:34At all?

00:35No

00:35To experience each other's idea of the perfect break

00:39The universe is really powerful

00:41If only positivity could pay the bills

00:43Can the rich rough it?

00:44There is no way on God's green earth

00:46that you or me are going in this

00:48Can the less wealthy stomach lavish luxury?

00:52I'm going to be sick

00:53I hate that you made me touch seafood

00:55How about that?

00:56And at the end

00:56A hundred and thirty-four thousand

00:59You could buy my house

01:00and landscape my garden

01:02Will one family's holiday heaven

01:05Give me off, give me off, give me off, give me off

01:07Be another's holiday hell?

01:09Yes, get mashed up

01:10Absolutely not

01:11This is possibly going to be the worst holiday I've ever been on

01:19The Welsh Valleys

01:21Home to this fun-loving duo

01:25BFF's Nina and Taylor

01:27We're like an old married couple

01:29We literally argue like cat and dog

01:31But it's nothing but love

01:33And it's just a great lot of fun

01:35And the arguments never my fault

01:37They're always yours

01:37It goes there

01:38Yeah

01:39These twenty-somethings have been inseparable

01:41Since they met at work five years ago

01:44What have you won?

01:45I won some sweets

01:46And you didn't

01:48I know that

01:49There's no

01:49We non-stop giggle

01:51Absolutely not

01:52Thank you

01:53I won it

01:53No, but let me have the

01:55We are children at heart

01:58It's a fun aspect

01:59But it's also a downfall in work

02:02Yeah, no

02:02I'm just going to pop in a brief hole

02:04Give me two seconds

02:04Nina and Taylor work in customer services for an insurance company

02:10But it's no laughing matter

02:12They struggle to get by

02:14And like 1.5 million other Gen Zers

02:17They've racked up a mountain of debt

02:19I'm, I'd say about £60,000 into student loan debt

02:23Which I'm paying back

02:24And I've now realised the consequences of that

02:27I feel very financially trapped

02:29Have you got a eight?

02:31I have

02:32Oh my god, thank you

02:34Unable to afford to buy or rent their own space

02:36These young adults live with their respective parents

02:40Paying rent and their share of food bills

02:43I'd say I'm definitely skint

02:45And I look at my bank the first day I get paid

02:47And then I'm happy

02:48And the second day when all the bills have come out

02:51I'm very unhappy

02:54With a combined weekly disposable income of just £50

02:57Holidays are cheap but cheerful

03:00My holidays are usually somewhere cheaper ways

03:03So it can be a cabin, it can be a caravan, it can be a tent

03:07Expensive food and expensive wine isn't important

03:09You can cook a nice meal if you have the skills

03:13As well as giving him a £60,000 degree debt

03:16University also educated Taylor in low cost living

03:20I usually do a pot noodle sandwich

03:22Yum

03:24Carb on carb, fills you up for the day and it tastes great

03:27And trust me, it's a culinary masterpiece

03:29Tell me how you think

03:31I'm quite surprised it's not Michelin starred yet

03:33It wasn't disgusting and it wasn't horrible

03:36Fair enough

03:38So, what are the pals expecting from a holiday swap with rich strangers?

03:43When rich people go on holidays

03:44You know, I don't think they do get stuck into like activities

03:47And going out and doing things

03:49To me, it's not just sitting by a beach all day, every day

03:52Do you know when you see those holidays all over your social media

03:56Is it actually all that good?

03:58Am I really missing out?

03:59Is it really going to be that much better?

04:02When you're in like a five star hotel

04:03You know, with your embroidered dressing gown

04:05But is the embroidered dressing gown worth it?

04:09It might be, yeah

04:11Only one way to find out

04:12You took the words right out of my mouth

04:16Go 200 miles east and you reach Essex

04:20Cheers

04:22Where bling is king for single mom of three, Zoe

04:25And her bestie, Victoria

04:28What do you think they're going to make of us?

04:30Well, I think they'll probably find you a bit too much

04:34I think we'd better like to have fun

04:36Which, who doesn't?

04:37Yeah, Victoria makes me look normal

04:40We just get on

04:42There's no judgement

04:43It's just have fun

04:45It's just easy

04:47Everywhere you look in Zoe's Desres

04:49Shouts money

04:52But she was not born with a silver spoon in her mouth

04:55After years of 90 hour weeks as a banker

04:57She retired to set up an award-winning dog breeding business

05:01I was a banker for a long time

05:03And a stock investor and property investor

05:06And now I am a dog breeder

05:09But a good dog breeder

05:10A breeder with a difference

05:11I charge a lot

05:13Sometimes the price of a car

05:17Zoe's income puts her firmly in the UK's wealthiest 1%

05:21As her bank balance has grown

05:23So has her love of the finer things in life

05:25This Gucci bag

05:26I think was one of my first bags that I bought

05:28They cost thousands

05:30I work really hard

05:31I get up at five

05:32And I carry on working until about midnight

05:35And yeah, I play hard as well

05:37Why not?

05:38It's what we do it for, right?

05:39Like Zoe, Victoria also enjoys the A-list lifestyle

05:43Spending a lot of money keeping themselves in shape

05:46And looking fabulous

05:48As for holidays

05:53For them, five stars isn't enough

05:55And champagne is a drink for breakfast

05:58We did a holiday in America

06:00Which we probably spent around £20,000, £25,000

06:03We also did a cruise a couple of years ago

06:06Which was about £16,000

06:07And nothing gets in the way of a good time

06:10Ibiza was brilliant

06:12Although I was three weeks post-surgery

06:14A boob reduction lift

06:16And a little bit of lipo

06:17And decided to jump on a plane

06:19And join the party

06:20Charlie was walking around like this

06:24So, what would be their idea of holiday hell?

06:28Caravan or camping holiday

06:29It's cold, it's wet outside

06:32It hasn't stopped raining

06:34Like, that would be my idea of hell

06:37It's the moment of truth

06:39So, where do you think we're going?

06:40I have no idea

06:41Right, should we open it then?

06:42We might as well

06:43Yeah, I think you should open it

06:45I'd be happy with like a caravan, cabin, campsite

06:49I literally don't mind

06:50The pairs will be spending a week together

06:53But on two very different trips

06:55First to be road tested

06:57Is the Cheap As Chips Gen Z style break

07:00You are off to...

07:03Suffolk!

07:04OK

07:04To stay in wooden cabins with shared bathrooms

07:07For a mixture of outdoor activities

07:09And inside entertainment

07:11Wrap up warm and be ready for anything

07:15Cool

07:17Zoe's not impressed

07:19Zoe's not happy

07:20So, what do you think the rich people are going to think?

07:23I don't know if they'd appreciate the shared bathrooms

07:25Shared kitchen

07:26You don't get that in five-star hotels, do you?

07:28No!

07:28I can't really deal with other people's smells

07:31No

07:32Yeah, totally

07:35Under the radar, places like Suffolk

07:37Are hundreds of pounds cheaper than big-hitting holiday hotspots like Devon or Cornwall

07:43Close enough to the coast for some seaside fun

07:46This value-glamping resort with shared facilities also embraces nature

07:53Win, win, win

07:54Win, win, win

07:55Indoor activities, outdoor activities

07:57Pottle sandwich

07:58It's cool

08:00Yeah!

08:02HE LAUGHS

08:07It's day one

08:09And on their four-hour drive from Wales

08:11Taylor's already on a mission

08:13We're here to enjoy ourselves

08:14And we're hopefully here to teach the rich couple how to enjoy themselves with little to no money

08:21But he's got his work cut out

08:23Oh, sorry

08:23Oh, thank God

08:27Oh, God

08:28Oh, God

08:28Oh, my God

08:29It's like, they're like actual sheds

08:30Back to Essex

08:33Where the hell are we?

08:35Is someone else going to take the cases, or?

08:37This is a joke

08:38The pairs are meeting for the first time at their low-cost self-catering accommodation

08:43That's the toilet, Zoe

08:45What?

08:46That's the toilet

08:47Oh, shut up

08:49So, when I want to go to the toilet in the middle of the night

08:52Oh, my God

08:52I've got to come right out here

08:53Oh, my God

08:55Oh, don't

08:56I think it looks like a kitchen

08:57Stop it

08:58Oh

08:59That is not a kitchen

09:01But first, they need to check into their no-frills wood cabins

09:05Oh, my God

09:06Is this our pod?

09:07Is this it?

09:08Oh, my God

09:09Oh, my God, Zoe

09:11I generally didn't even know these places existed

09:13No

09:13Where they just put two beds in a shed

09:18Oh, my God, Zoe

09:19I genuinely didn't realise it would be this bad, did you?

09:22No

09:22It's not a swish villa in Ibiza, if that's what you mean

09:24Where am I doing my hair, then?

09:26Where am I plugging my tongs in?

09:28Where's the mirror?

09:29I'm so happy

09:31It's sexy

09:34We're going to have to just laugh our way through it

09:36Yeah

09:36Look at the lake, the lake's lovely

09:39As for Nina and Taylor

09:40Yeah, this is just really nice

09:42It is really cute

09:43This is one of the nicest places I've been to in a while

09:45Yeah

09:46It's a decent size

09:47It's nice views

09:48There's things to do

09:49There's nothing wrong with this at all

09:51And it's nice, this is what me and Nina enjoy

09:53It is basic beyond basic

09:55I mean, you've got to walk to the toilets

09:57And walk to the kettle

09:59And walk to everything

10:01Through mud and crap

10:03But their holiday hell

10:05Hiya

10:06Is Nina and Taylor's holiday heaven

10:09Hello

10:10How are you?

10:11I'm good, you okay?

10:12Do we do hugs?

10:13Yeah, that's fine

10:13I'm Victoria

10:14Nice to meet you, my name's Taylor

10:15Nice to meet you, Taylor

10:16Nice to meet you, Nina

10:17I would say Victoria and Zoe are quite glamorous

10:20When we turned up, Victoria's got her fur coat on

10:22You can clearly tell that there is a massive wealth divider

10:25It's probably not something that they're used to

10:27What do you guys think of it so far?

10:31Erm...

10:31I think it's terrible

10:32To be honest, I'm not gonna lie

10:35Any reason why?

10:37How long have you got?

10:38To me, that is...

10:40It's exceeded my expectations

10:42It's a lot worse than I ever thought it would be

10:45A lot worse than I ever could imagine

10:47She was very quick to say that she didn't like it

10:50She was very forthcoming in exactly what her thoughts were

10:52So they're just gonna have to get used to it and hopefully embrace it

10:55What do you do?

10:57I am an award-winning breeder of luxurious dogs

11:01Oh my God

11:02It's just a hobby, cos I was a banker back in the day

11:05Yeah

11:06And that's where I made my money from banking

11:08They both seem to be, like, successful in their own roles

11:11I mean, they've made their money, they've earned their bag

11:14They can go and do whatever they want

11:16So we're both working insurance

11:17Oh, do you?

11:19Wow!

11:19Not as fun as the lucrative dog business

11:22No

11:23We work really hard for what we get

11:25And it's obviously not thousands and thousands

11:27I would love to say that we can drop thousands of pounds on a holiday

11:30Which is why we've come here

11:31This is probably what we would do as a usual holiday

11:34We could save a lot of money and still have fun

11:36And there's another bombshell for Zoe and Victoria

11:39They've got to survive on the besties usual holiday budget

11:4320, 40, 60, 80, 100 pounds

11:49That's 25 pounds per person for four days

11:52I'm very shocked that that's the budget we've been given

11:55So it's like all our groceries and...

11:58Everything

11:58Okay, activities as well?

12:00Yes

12:00Oh, okay

12:01I think we've set the budget low but the bar high on this holiday

12:05So let's see if they can follow it

12:07It's our holiday so it's our rules

12:09I just want you to get stuck in and like at least try everything once

12:13I'm looking around, I don't know what you're going to come up with for activities

12:17Yeah, we are intrigued

12:17Because what is there to even do?

12:19Very intrigued

12:19It is just not my vibe at all

12:23Coming up, there's rough rides

12:26It's going to be a short-lived bit of fun, isn't it?

12:29And disaster dinners

12:30I tell you, you're really starting to grate on me now with all this rule stuff

12:38Two hard-up Gen Zedders

12:40Indoor activities, outdoor activities

12:42Pottle sandwich

12:43Win, win, win

12:44Win, win, win

12:45Are swapping holidays with two glam mums from Essex

12:48Cheers

12:49I'm very shocked that that's the budget we've been given

12:52In a clash of wealth and generations, they're off to a bad start

12:56I'm not going to lie, it's terrible

12:58It's a lot worse than I ever thought it would be

13:03It's day two in Suffolk

13:05Where Zoe and Victoria have survived a night without their usual super king-sized beds

13:10I didn't enjoy having to get up and go to that toilet at 4.30 this morning

13:14No, same

13:15I wonder what we're going to be doing today

13:17Something in the mud

13:20For Nina and Taylor, it's all water off a duck's back

13:23It is nice

13:24I would love to sit here all day, look, barbecue

13:26You can clearly tell that they're not really embracing it fully, are they?

13:30It's a little bit annoying because obviously that's what me and Nina do when we're on holidays

13:34Oh, it's disgusting

13:36I've got the mud

13:37Don't fall over

13:38That means no marble en-suites for their five-star companions

13:43Oh God, oh look at the floor, oh my God

13:47So there's one toilet

13:49Two showers

13:50How does this work?

13:52And there's four of us

13:54For a start, that's without any of the other people

13:57Yeah, it's not ideal

13:59It's not just the shared bathrooms they'll need to get used to

14:02Hi guys

14:03Hi

14:04Hello

14:04There won't be any splashing out on the holiday entertainment either

14:08So the activities we're doing on the holiday are

14:11Yes

14:12Fishing on the deck

14:14You are joking

14:16Yeah

14:16You just not like fishing at all, have you done it before?

14:19Yeah, I do it with the boys

14:20But I still find it really boring

14:22What are we waiting for?

14:24Catch a fish hopefully

14:25Oh no

14:27All the fun of the fair

14:28The fun of the fair sounds good

14:30Is there a town nearby maybe?

14:31Yeah, they go to the pub down the road

14:34Nice lunch

14:35Nice

14:36And come back and feed the ducks

14:37Lovely

14:38I don't think a pub lunch is in the budget

14:42Together they have just £200 for food and activities

14:46Plus one takeaway treat

14:48You come with me

14:49Yeah

14:50Do you two want to grab some food as well?

14:52Yeah, we'll go

14:53We'll go

14:53Nina and Taylor have allocated just £50 for groceries

14:59But can they put the brakes on the big spenders?

15:03Then we'll keep a track on how much we're spending

15:05Yeah

15:06We have to stick to this £48

15:08£1.39

15:10Cheap cheerful

15:11Okay

15:12And in a budget driven role reversal

15:14Put some carrots

15:16Old broccoli

15:17I don't think

15:18Right, Zoe

15:19I think we need to say to the budget

15:20I don't want to add in too much too quick

15:22Because we've already now just got in there

15:23Round of beans

15:24Nina and Taylor must play mum and dad

15:26We want cheap and easy

15:28I don't think

15:28Give her like £1 something

15:30She was just kind of grabbing everything that she would usually eat

15:33We'll have the broccoli

15:34I don't think we need parsnips

15:35Yeah?

15:36No?

15:37No

15:37They were a lot more expensive than your basic produce

15:40So a few packets of these maybe?

15:42Can we have a toberone? Here's £8

15:44That will leave you with £4 for every other food

15:48Every other meal

15:50I'm not very good at being told what to do

15:52I do feel like I'm getting told off, you know, by my parents and stuff

15:55And it's not, yeah, it's not something we're used to

15:57£12 for the whole shop

15:58For the whole holiday each

16:00I mean, that is ridiculous

16:02Not go far at all

16:03Not in my world

16:04No

16:06But in Taylor's world

16:07There's even room for some Bombay bad boys

16:10There is one thing we forgot

16:12Pot noodles

16:14Oh

16:14I don't need

16:15Yeah, I don't need a pot noodle either

16:16If you want to get yourself a pot noodle

16:19Obviously that's cool

16:20Come on, Nina, let's go and get a pot noodle

16:21Yeah, well I'm not eating a pot noodle

16:22You will try it

16:23And I know you will like it

16:24Go Taylor

16:27As Knight draws in on the campsite

16:30It turns out Taylor wasn't joking

16:32Dinner with a smile

16:34His special is on the menu

16:37Just take a bite

16:38A bite

16:43Take a bite

16:44Oh, that is grim

16:47Oh my God

16:50Actually, it's really nice though

16:51Try it

16:53Mmm

16:53Oh my God

16:55Mmm

16:56The reason why I make this

16:58I know it's not the best

16:59But you've got to think

17:01Obviously we went shopping today

17:02So, you know, you can get a loaf of bread for 70p

17:05You can get a pack of noodles for 30, 40p

17:07So, it's a pound for a meal that's decent

17:10You know, that's how I save money

17:12Yeah, I get that

17:14When you go out for a food shop

17:15What would you spend?

17:18So, I do like a big shop

17:21I don't know, 300 pounds

17:24400 pounds a week, maybe

17:26I have about 100 to 150 pounds a month

17:29To kind of

17:30That's my kind of disposable income

17:32To do anything else

17:34It's surprising to obviously see

17:35That you spend 200, 300, 400 pound on a food shop

17:37Yeah

17:38What we do, we're not doing this

17:40Because we want to

17:41It's because we kind of need to

17:44It's quite sad

17:45To think that

17:47He could be my little boy

17:48He's only young

17:50And he's having to eat

17:52A pot noodle sandwich

17:54Because that's all he can afford

17:56That cuts quite deep with me

17:58It's really humbling

17:59To be fair

18:01We don't eat lavishly

18:02We don't eat amazing food

18:04Because we still try and make our money stretch

18:06And I think they really kind of

18:07I got that across to them

18:09But despite Taylor's hopes

18:11The next morning

18:12Morning, morning

18:14Hiya!

18:15Zoe and Victoria have a confession to make

18:20Guys, let's just get this out of the way

18:21Erm

18:24I've got something to tell you

18:26Go on

18:26So

18:28Am I going to be disappointed?

18:30Well I don't know

18:31If you hear me to the end

18:32You might not be

18:33So basically

18:35We were really hungry

18:36And we didn't have enough money in the thing

18:38So we sneaked out last night

18:39And we got some snacks

18:42But

18:43We have saved you some

18:45So it's been a piece of offering

18:46We've got like a donut in here

18:48Erm

18:50Two twirls

18:50You know you agreed that this is our holiday hour rules

18:53Yeah

18:53And we went food shopping yesterday

18:55We spoke about that we can't have the chocolate

18:57We have to stick to a budget

18:58And you've kind of gone against it

19:00Yeah I know

19:00Finding out that Zoe and Victoria spent £15 on snacks

19:04Was quite frankly rude and annoying

19:07Because they said that they were

19:09They were going to stick by the rules

19:10But then they didn't

19:11It's kind of a slap in the face

19:13Yeah

19:13I get that

19:13Because you've gone against what we've said

19:16Yeah

19:16Erm

19:17Yeah I feel terrible

19:18The experience is meant to be you living on our budget

19:21And doing the way that we do our holidays

19:26Right

19:27Well

19:28We are really sorry

19:30Yeah we didn't mean to upset you obviously

19:32Erm

19:33No we won't do it again

19:34No

19:34We won't

19:35You promise this time?

19:36Yeah

19:36We won't do it again

19:37I love Taylor and Nina

19:39But I think they went right over the top about that

19:41Come on then guys

19:42Let's go

19:45With food frictions threatening to spoil the vacation vibe

19:49Will a change of scene lift the mood?

19:52Here we are

19:54They head nearby to Clacton-on-Sea

19:56Boasting the UK's biggest pleasure pier

19:59For some classic Brit budget leisure

20:03Yeah

20:04This is our idea of a little fun cheap day out

20:07Because we don't have to spend a lot of money

20:09But you can still have fun

20:10It's all about the laughs you have

20:11And kind of you know the memories you're making

20:13It's not my idea of a break

20:17Yeah I'd rather go to London

20:19Go to some nice restaurants or a spa maybe

20:22If we're just going to have a weekend away together

20:23Yeah

20:24Just us

20:24Would not come here

20:25Okay well it's our holiday

20:28So our rules

20:29I have our budget

20:30Okay

20:31Which is

20:32£10 per person

20:33Oh wow

20:34It's going to be a short lived bit of fun isn't it?

20:37You can make a stretch

20:38And there's another yummy pot noodle for Dins too

20:42But first off

20:43A spin on the arcades

20:44See it's quite relaxing isn't it?

20:46Yeah

20:46Therapy tick

20:49Winner

20:51Well done

20:51I'm so proud

20:52Well done

20:53And surprise surprise

20:55The penny starts to drop on Zoe and Victoria's holiday experiment

20:59I think Victoria and I have different tastes to Taylor and Nina

21:04This toy is on the edge

21:05Do you reckon I'm going to get it? Look

21:06We are worlds apart

21:08Hold on

21:08Just become a millionaire

21:11Which makes this whole experience so much more interesting

21:15Getting to know different people from different worlds

21:20Next it's time to buckle up

21:23Go on let's go

21:25As suddenly the rich friends can't get enough fun of the fair

21:30Go go go go go go

21:35Get up from behind Taylor

21:36I think the competitiveness got to them a little bit too much

21:39And I think they took it quite seriously

21:44But it was enjoyable from all of us

21:47Winners! Winners!

21:49Joey and Victoria kind of warmed up to it at the end

21:51Because we were all having a laugh

21:52It's just always nice to do different things

21:55And yeah I'm glad we did it

21:56I enjoyed it

21:57I've really enjoyed today

21:58Yeah me too

22:00But so far

22:01The cheapest chips food has proved a thorny issue

22:05I'm absolutely starving Taylor

22:08And it's down to Taylor to dish out the dinner money

22:11We have got a budget for food

22:13Yeah

22:14And the budget is £4 each for food

22:18OK

22:19OK

22:19Shall we go and have a look?

22:20Yeah

22:21What's the point?

22:22You can get a lot for £4

22:26Oh my god

22:28That is ridiculous

22:31You can't even eat

22:32All I can get is a bag of chips

22:34You can get a regular bag of chips with £2.90 in the drink

22:36Yeah it was half past two I've been eating since breakfast

22:39It's the way you budget your food now

22:40You've got £4

22:41How would you budget it?

22:42And we can't go over budget

22:43You and your budget?

22:45Our holiday hour rules

22:46Taylor you're really starting to grate on me now

22:48To be honest with all this rules stuff

22:52But I'm literally starving

22:54I think Zoe's reaction was a tiny, tiny bit extreme

22:57I feel like £4 for lunch is a normal amount of money

22:59I mean it's a meal deal in a shop

23:01Or it's just something quick

23:02It's just a snack to keep you filled

23:04Yeah it's just quite upsetting

23:05It's quite annoying as well

23:07You just don't want to stick to your rules

23:09We're just hungry

23:10I'm starving

23:12So we can all have something in our stomach

23:13And then if you are still hungry then we can talk about it

23:15But unfortunately the budget is £4

23:18The lunch budget of £4 was pretty shocking to be honest

23:27Seagulls will eat well

23:33It's day four

23:35Nina and Taylor's last chance to reel in Zoe and Victoria

23:39Oh this is cosy

23:41It's quite nice isn't it?

23:42Yeah

23:42It's a good setup

23:43Yeah yeah yeah

23:44With their final holiday experience

23:47An afternoon on the water side

23:50So would you like to be shown how to fish?

23:53No thanks I'll just watch you

23:55Rumbridge Lake is well known for its fishing waters

23:58So Taylor's hoping he'll soon get the ladies hooked

24:02Okay so you put your finger on the string here

24:05You unlock the little metal on the rope

24:08First a quick lesson in how to tackle casting

24:12Release the string whilst you throw it

24:15Like that

24:16There we go

24:18You've got a fish Taylor?

24:20You've got a fish?

24:21No!

24:22You've got a fish?

24:23Reel it in

24:24You've got a fish

24:25I think you've lost her now

24:27Oh Taylor

24:28It's gone

24:29Ah

24:30This holiday has made me realise that company and who you're with is a big part of our holidays

24:36Right ladies, who wants to have a go?

24:38Go on Zoe

24:39Yeah I can't wait, I'm so excited for fishing

24:41Come on let's have a go

24:42It can't be any worse than you

24:43Aye

24:45Right

24:46Pick it up, nice straight back

24:48No, so

24:49Hold on, wait, wait, wait, wait

24:50And then?

24:51No, because you've got to release that first

24:52So release that first

24:53Release what?

24:55Oh

24:55Yep

24:55And then fling it over there

24:57Yeah, release that

24:57Don't lose the fucking thing

25:00I've done this before

25:01So now

25:02Yeah?

25:03All I have to do is sit and wait

25:03Shall we sit down?

25:06Didn't catch any fish but I caught a cold out there today on the decking

25:12While waiting for a nibble, Zoe fishes into why these Gen Z-ers are so hard up

25:18So you guys, like if you don't mind me saying, you're both really clever, I can see that and really

25:23intelligent

25:24I'm just interested to know why do you have to watch your bills so much?

25:28It's really difficult because I've had to take out loans

25:31I've been in my overdraft pretty much constantly since being out of university

25:35I'm paying rent to live with my parents because rent is too expensive everywhere else

25:39I don't have the money for a deposit

25:41Pretty much the same as Taylor

25:43So like most of my income goes on bills

25:46When is it going to end? Like have you got a plan for getting out of this debt?

25:50I'll be honest, there is no end in sight at the moment

25:53I'm just having to kind of grit and bear it and get on with it

25:57No, I've been where you are

25:58So I know exactly what it feels like

26:00It's good to have heartfelt conversations with Nina and Taylor because they are really lovely people with big hearts

26:08They're very young so they're finding their way

26:11And you know, I remember when I was 20 and there's a big world out there

26:16I was really worried that like our personalities clash but I was surprised they are really nice people and they

26:21do seem really down to earth

26:23The budget part of the break is almost over, so what's the verdict?

26:28The only thing that kind of upset us was the overspend of £15 on the snacks

26:35But obviously we discussed it and I think we can forget

26:39In hindsight I don't think we would do that

26:41We wouldn't do that again

26:42No, especially when I saw how much it upset you

26:44We've had more fun than we expected to have

26:45Yeah we have

26:46But the million dollar question, how much did it cost?

26:51Ah!

26:53£660.09

26:55That is cheap isn't it?

26:58But it feels like it's been cheap, I'm going to be honest

27:02I feel, I feel it

27:03We've got what we paid for

27:05Now, it's time to turn the tables

27:08In the envelope is the destination of the luxury holiday a la Zoe and Victoria

27:13Oh we go to Budapest!

27:14Yes!

27:15Wow!

27:16So, you're heading to the capital of Hungary, Budapest

27:19For the ultimate in luxury

27:21Yes

27:21Prepare to glam up as you'll be treated like royalty

27:23Staying in a spectacular five star hotel in the heart of the city

27:27That's what I like it!

27:29Better than these pods isn't it?

27:31Yay!

27:34The two pairs are heading to a luxury hotel

27:36In the heart of Hungary's capital, Budapest

27:40Where the focus is on wellness and fine food

27:43A night here is more than the cost of the whole budget holiday

27:48I can't wait to not cut beans on toast in the mornings anymore

27:50I can't wait to have my own toilet

27:52Hot bath!

27:53Oh yes!

27:55Coming up, all that glitters

27:57This is more like it

28:00Finally!

28:01Whoa!

28:02Is not gold

28:04If I don't like setting my day up, Zoe's screaming and shouting at me at 9am in the morning

28:12Two millionaire moms

28:14Cheers!

28:15Cheers!

28:16Have been on a cheap as chips holiday

28:18Oh, that was grim

28:20Now it's time to change gear

28:22Oh, we've got the Budapest!

28:25And show their budget conscious companions how to holiday at the other end of the scale

28:29Can't wait to have my own toilet

28:31Hot bath!

28:33Oh, yes!

28:35It's day one of the posh half of the break

28:38Time to board our Budapest flight

28:40And after a two-hour flight to Budapest

28:43Nina and Taylor are stepping into the unknown

28:46We're going to be living like royalty

28:48Call me Princess Diana

28:49Because I am now the princess of Wales

28:53Oh, that's gorgeous

28:54Oh, my goodness

28:56The holidayers will be living it up at one of Hungary's finest hotels

29:02Welcome to Radisson Collection Basilica Budapest

29:05Oh, my God

29:07It's so pretty

29:09Chandeliers

29:09It's got chandeliers

29:12Wow

29:14I felt kind of out of place

29:16It was so posh, it's so nice

29:17I kind of didn't know what to do with myself

29:20For each pair

29:21Whoa

29:22Oh, my God

29:23Ooh

29:24This is stunning

29:26A swanky luxury suite costing 650 quid a night

29:31Almost what Taylor pays his parents a month in rent

29:34All I can say is, wow

29:36Just exceeds my expectations of a five star hotel

29:41For luxury loving mum Zoe and Victoria, this is very much home turf

29:45Oh, wow

29:47Wow

29:47Yes

29:48This is more like it

29:50Finally

29:52Whoa

29:54Your own toilet

29:56Your own sink

29:58Heating

29:58TV

29:59Definitely more our style

30:01There's a door

30:02Oh, my God, this is stunning

30:04Wow, wow, wow

30:05Wow

30:05You can see whatever that building is

30:07It's pretty pretty

30:09Got the gold on the top

30:10That building is none other than Budapest or inspiring St Stephen's Basilica

30:15The largest church in the city

30:17I feel like a king

30:21Good afternoon

30:23Hello, you two

30:24Hello

30:25So, what top tier activities do Bottomless Pockets buy?

30:30Morning workout

30:31We do a morning workout most mornings

30:33It's really good to start the morning with all the happy hormones floating around

30:39I've never gone to the gym on a holiday in my life

30:43It doesn't appeal to me

30:45Professional makeover

30:46Ooh

30:47Have you ever had a professional makeover?

30:50I can't say I have

30:51I want to look bougie

30:53Luxury river cruise

30:55Oh, yeah

30:56It's going to be nice but I'm going to find it really hard not to worry about how much money

31:00we're spending

31:00Because that's just the person I am

31:01And the best for last

31:04Relaxing thermal bath

31:06Ooh

31:08Onwards and upwards

31:09We're here now

31:10Yeah

31:10In the lap of luxury

31:12And this is where the real holidays start

31:16The world's spa capital

31:18Budapest is renowned for its thermal baths

31:21Some of which date back to the Ottoman Empire

31:25So tonight

31:26Both pairs are taking the plunge in one of the most historic spas in town

31:31Wow

31:32Wow

31:33This is pretty special isn't it guys

31:34Isn't it?

31:35So nice

31:36And it's private

31:36We have no one here

31:37God you know how to treat us well don't you ladies?

31:391.5 million holiday makers soak in Sechenia baths every year

31:45Absolute freezing

31:47But in Zoe and Victoria's style they all have VIP entry without the crowds

31:54Is this warm?

31:55Yeah

31:57Don't get my back

31:58What are the benefits of a thermal bath?

32:02So it's dense in nutrients rich in minerals

32:05It would help with healing

32:08Stress

32:08Like some pains

32:11Yeah there's no chemicals or anything it's all natural

32:13It does feel quite strange that people pay for this

32:16Because I didn't think it was enjoyable

32:18Because it's a bath outside

32:19It felt weird

32:21Yeah I didn't find it really fun

32:23I did not want to get out

32:25I could have stayed in there forever

32:26So nice

32:31It's day two in Budapest

32:33Zoe and Vicky are determined Nina and Taylor follow their normal routine

32:39Right guys you ready for your workout?

32:42Yay

32:43I need more energy than that Taylor

32:45Woo!

32:46It's better

32:47So this morning it's down to the hotel gym for some hard craft

32:51Just remember if it's not challenging you it is not going to change you

32:56And payback

32:57It's my holiday

32:58It's my rules

33:00And I'm going to get his heart racing

33:04And get him pumping some iron in the gym

33:06Do you do this usually on holidays?

33:08Because this is not really a relaxing thing

33:12Yeah so for me it really is relaxing

33:14In the fact the happy hormones get released and it relaxes my mind

33:19Right let's do this!

33:20Let's go!

33:23Taylor you are not pushing yourself

33:25Come on hands on the bars

33:26We are not driving off to a picnic somewhere

33:29We are on our workout

33:30We are training our minds and our bodies

33:32We need to push yourselves

33:33I don't like setting my day up like Zoe screaming and shouting at me at 9am in the morning

33:37Give me the best 20 minutes of your life

33:40You can do this to her no cat

33:42If I ever had all the money in the world I know for a fact I will never be booking

33:47Zoe as a PT

33:48It was like going to war

33:50Is the golfing lifestyle too big for our Gen Zers to cross?

33:55There's another test later tonight

33:57Dining in an A-list haunt

33:59A 132 year old palace of Hungarian cuisine

34:04But to get the pot noodle fans ready for fine dining

34:07I would just like her made up to feel really special

34:11Okay

34:11A 300 pound makeover with a professional stylist

34:17Subtle colours and some contouring

34:19Maybe with the hair some curls, a curly blow dry

34:22I felt like a bit like a Barbie doll

34:23Like do this to her, do this to her

34:25I will do my best

34:26Thank you so much

34:28Thank you

34:28Looking forward to it?

34:29I'm just so excited

34:31I've always done my makeup so I feel like I have my own style

34:34So we can start

34:36So it was really weird to see myself

34:39There's new wardrobes too

34:41And Taylor's also in for a surprise

34:43Hiya!

34:44Hiya!

34:44You okay?

34:45Yeah, good thank you

34:47Nina's having her makeover which is a lovely treat for her

34:49Yes

34:50And I was having a thing and I didn't want to leave you out

34:53So...

34:54What have you done?

34:55This is for you

34:55You haven't?

34:57I hope you like it

34:58It's so weird

35:00You're gonna have it now

35:01Thank you

35:02I think when Zoe gave me the clothes I think it was a nice touch

35:06And it made me look ten times nicer than the outfit I actually brought

35:08I just really wanted to treat him to a lovely outfit and he was so grateful, bless him

35:15With Taylor suited and booted

35:18Cheers!

35:19Cheers!

35:19The Hotel Sky Bar is the venue for Nina's red carpet reveal

35:24Here she is!

35:26Oh my God!

35:27Oh!

35:27Nina you look amazing

35:28Thank you

35:30Give us a twirl!

35:31Give us a twirl!

35:32Oh the hair stunning

35:33I feel like you hold your head a little bit higher when you think you look nicer

35:37I was looking up a lot because I didn't want to cry

35:40It was really really nice

35:42Don't cry and ruin the makeup

35:43I know

35:44Don't ruin the makeup

35:46With everyone dressed to impress

35:48It's time for Zoe and Victoria to show their holiday companions how the other half dine

35:54Good evening, welcome to the restaurant

35:56Good evening

35:56Hi

35:58In a private room inside the restaurant

36:02Oh wow! Isn't it?

36:04Yeah

36:05Stunning

36:06It's gorgeous

36:07Where even royalty have sat before

36:09I just cannot believe that the Queen Elizabeth II was eating at that restaurant

36:15Would be right

36:15Same

36:17John, I don't understand half the things on this menu

36:19And it's not because it's not in English

36:21I genuinely don't know what foie gras is

36:23Foie gras with quince ragout

36:25What?

36:26I feel like I'm looking at IKEA furniture

36:30Yeah, I thought out of place

36:31I'm not used to having a menu that looks like a book

36:34First up, on their £85 a head menu

36:37An amuse-bouche of creamed parsnips

36:41Oh, that's lovely

36:42Isn't it?

36:46I really don't like it

36:47I don't like it

36:49How was that amuse-bouche? It's good?

36:51Oh, it was lovely

36:52It was lovely, thank you

36:53I appreciate that

36:55My palate's a little bit too basic for a restaurant that serves venison and pheasant

37:00I'm used to my turkey dinosaurs and like a Sunday roast

37:04Will the next course win them over?

37:07Oh, thank you

37:07Thank you

37:08Lovely

37:09Ooh

37:10Stunning

37:11That beef looks insane

37:12Bone apple teeth

37:13Bon appetite

37:16I think you pay for the quality of food rather than the quantity in these kind of restaurants

37:20This steak is nice, but obviously if I had

37:23You want the chips and onion rings?

37:24Yeah

37:25Give me a bit of garlic bread

37:29Four courses later, time for the bill

37:32Here you go, Taylor, do the honours

37:37So, in total, including tip, £371

37:44Oh, cool

37:45Oh, cool

37:46What do you mean?

37:48That's half a holiday

37:49We've had about five, six courses here

37:52Yeah, and it was all top quality food as well

37:54That's not even £100 in drinks

37:58Nah, I don't like that

37:59That's too expensive for me

38:02Two of these dinners is our entire holiday

38:05So I think that's why it's just really hard for me to justify it

38:08I mean, what did they expect for a fine dining experience, really?

38:11Yeah

38:12In the grand scheme of things, we would have had a better time

38:16With doing more activities than sitting in a restaurant for two and a half hours having food

38:21Coming up

38:22This is not like it

38:24The luxury goes up a level

38:26You're ruining every other holiday for me now

38:29Because this is so nice

38:30But living the holiday high life doesn't come cheap

38:33Stop it!

38:35That's a house deposit

38:37That would set me up for life

38:43Whoa!

38:44A pair of big spending besties

38:46This food, the quality of it is just incredible

38:48Have been showing two hard-up Gen Z-ers

38:51We're training our minds and our bodies, we need to push ourselves

38:54How to holiday in style

38:56Oh, do you know how to treat us well, didn't you ladies?

38:58To see if a high spend can deliver holiday happiness

39:01I don't like setting my day up

39:03I'd Zoe screaming and shouting at me at 9am in the morning

39:09It's the final day of the luxury holiday

39:12Thank you

39:13Thank you

39:14Oh, this is the life

39:16And on the itinerary this morning

39:18This is not like it

39:20A private boat cruise along the river Danube

39:23You're ruining every other holiday for me now

39:26Because this is so nice

39:27Yeah

39:28Well that is what you work hard for

39:31You used to do things like this

39:34This exclusive trip buys you an iconic waterway vista

39:38Including the 122 year old parliament building

39:42Oh, that's a beautiful shot

39:45That's so pretty

39:47I sat in the back with my glass of champagne

39:51Feeling like royalty

39:52I felt like waving like this

39:54This is how we sightsee

39:55Yeah

39:56No bus tours

39:57You don't do hop on hop off?

39:59No

40:00We've got our boat to ourselves

40:02I'm never usually on a boat full stop

40:04Let alone a private one with a skipper and our own driver and champagne

40:09At £400

40:11It's an experience that would normally be way out of reach for the Gen Zers

40:16It's crazy to think that we saw all the kind of iconic landmarks of Budapest

40:20Obviously the Houses of Parliament or kind of the architecture from a river boat cruise with champagne

40:26Mm

40:29The glam side of the getaway is almost over

40:32Awkward things have to come to an end I'm afraid

40:35Yes, unfortunately so

40:37Sadly

40:38But before the holidayers say their goodbyes

40:41It's time to find out what they really made of the experience

40:45It's just interesting to see you are really focused on the cost

40:49It's really difficult to see how much money you spend on these kind of holidays

40:55Rather than doing a private you could have paid a quarter of that cost to do the same boat trip

40:59Just with a couple of people around

41:00I've noticed that it's all about exclusivity

41:03You'd rather pay a lot extra just so it's private

41:06So we can choose do we want to go on a boat with 30 people or do we want to

41:10go on a boat with just us

41:12The money gives us choices and options

41:15I think the activities we've done here they have been great

41:18But I preferred our activities

41:22It's about having the fun

41:23We don't need to be dropping £400 on a private boat trip

41:26The best part of this holiday without question is you guys

41:31Aw, thanks

41:32It hasn't been the luxury experiences

41:35And it just goes to show you can have fun with anyone

41:40Yes money gives us options

41:42But it's made me realise even more so now that it's what's really important

41:46It's the memories that you make

41:48Oh those memories will last forever

41:50Totally, a lifetime

41:52So, how much is making memories on the luxury break cost?

41:57Let's do it

41:57Let's go

41:58I don't want to

42:02Stop it

42:05£10,417

42:06I'm okay

42:09Erm

42:11Yeah well

42:13That's a house deposit

42:15That would set me up for life

42:17That £10,000 and to do that on a holiday

42:21It's just

42:22We have had a very exclusive and luxury, you know, experience

42:25But it's so much money

42:28That could be my future

42:30I get that

42:31Putting that £10,000 on a four day holiday

42:34It's insane to me, that's two and a half grand a day

42:37It's a big chunk of money, which I totally get

42:39It just did make us more aware of what we've been spending

42:41You know, when you put it into context like that

42:44Yeah

42:44It's checkout time

42:46I am really going to miss this place

42:48I'm going to miss that balcony

42:51Bye bye Five Star Hotel, we love you

42:54Before they part ways, a little souvenir

42:57You have got a pack of noodles

43:00Every time you see her

43:02Every time you see that packet of noodles

43:03I'm always going to remember me and Nina

43:05Thank you so much, I love it

43:08So we have a present for you two

43:10We're going to treat you to a love Five Star Luxury Spa Day

43:13Wow, okay

43:14At Greenwood Spa, which is round the corner to us

43:17When Joey and Victoria said they were being taken out for a spa day

43:20I don't think this is going to get any better

43:22Come here guys, thank you

43:24Oh

43:27We have really bonded with Taylor and Nina during this experience

43:31We have definitely got new friends, haven't we?

43:34Yeah, they've been the best part of this whole experience

43:37For now though, it's back to the UK

43:40Where the pairs have the chance to reflect on their holiday

43:44This is day one of me being back in work after the experience of a lifetime

43:50Just shows to me that you can have fun on a cheap holiday and you can have fun on an

43:55expensive holiday

43:56It's the people that you're with that truly make the experience

43:59I think it's the connection that matters more than the cost

44:04I think it just goes to show that money doesn't buy happiness

44:07And you can't put a price on making memories

44:11Next time

44:12Oh my god

44:13It is as bad as I was thinking

44:15I can't see him again up there

44:17This is hell, get me out of here

44:19Let's test how it's bad

44:20Oh

44:22It looks like green poo

44:24I won't be eating them again

44:25Shall I do that?

44:27I was gobsmacked

44:29Someone would spend that amount

44:50To be able to see him

44:54You have to pay your attention

44:57See the people that all of us know

44:58You can't see me
