00:00Woohoo!
00:02Rich holidays...
00:03Look at that!
00:04I can't imagine waking up to that every morning!
00:06...are the stuff of dreams...
00:08Oh my God!
00:09We've got our own plunge post days!
00:12...but can cheap getaways...
00:14...be just as fun?
00:16I'm having a good time!
00:18I'm not getting in that!
00:19...for the first time, wealthy jet-setters...
00:22This is the life!
00:23...and hard-up holiday-makers...
00:26They do look really pussed.
00:28...travel together...
00:29...on two wildly different trips...
00:32Do you guys drink alcohol?
00:33No.
00:34At all?
00:34No.
00:35...to experience each other's idea of the perfect break...
00:39The universe is really powerful.
00:40If only positivity could pay the bills!
00:42...can the rich rough it...
00:44There is no way on Godfrey and Earth...
00:46...that you or me are going in this!
00:48...can the less wealthy stomach lavish luxury...
00:51I'm gonna be sick!
00:52I hate that you made me touch seafood, how about that?
00:55...and at the end...
00:58...134,000...
00:59...you could buy my house and landscape my garden!
01:02...for now!
01:02...will one family's holiday heaven...
01:04...give me off, give me off, give me off, give me off!
01:06...be another's holiday hell?
01:08Let's get mashed up!
01:09Absolutely not!
01:10This is possibly gonna be the worst holiday I've ever been on!
01:25You got the right angle?
01:26Probably get told off that I ain't!
01:28Me and Paul are completely different people...
01:31...Paul's much more laid back...
01:33...I am full of energy...
01:36...and I like doing the things that I like to do...
01:38...my own way!
01:39Bonnie's way is the only way!
01:42Get up!
01:44Paul DJs part-time...
01:46...whilst mum-of-two Bonnie juggles family life...
01:49...with performing some of the biggest gigs across the globe!
01:52I've played in America...
01:54...the Alps...
01:56...and Ibiza...
01:56...I've played in Abu Dhabi...
01:58...Goodbye!
01:59Me and Paul have now started DJing together...
02:02...which is...
02:03...great fun!
02:04As for holidays...
02:06...this globe-trotting couple...
02:08...splashed tens of thousands on luxurious trips!
02:11With the five star...
02:13...it just hits that spot a bit better!
02:15I want a beautiful view...
02:17...a beautiful balcony...
02:18...and great food!
02:20And winter sports are at the top of their expensive holiday hit list!
02:24To be in the mountains is such a special place...
02:28...the adrenaline of going down the slopes is breathtaking!
02:33So, who will struggle most with the stripped-back getaway?
02:36My life was standard sort of growing up...
02:39...we used to go camping in the caravan holidays...
02:42...but jet-setting Bonnie was raised rich!
02:46We went on holidays to Australia, to Mauritius, to Africa...
02:50...skiing to Austria...
02:52...I've never, ever been on a budget holiday!
02:55So, what kind of breaks at the bottom of their bucket list?
02:59I wouldn't ever choose to go on a camping holiday...
03:02...because that's not a holiday!
03:04Paul?
03:05Yeah?
03:05How long till dinner?
03:07Cooking on holiday is definitely a big no for me!
03:10I don't really want to be getting up and doing dishes...
03:13...because I would be left to do it all!
03:15And how do they think they'll rub along...
03:17...with their cash-strapped travel companions?
03:20I think we're quite people people...
03:23...so, hopefully, we can get on!
03:26They may think that I'm a princess...
03:28...or they may think that I'm spoiled!
03:31And Bonnie's a fierce defender of her way of life!
03:33I try to always be honest and direct...
03:36...even if sometimes that upsets the situation and other people!
03:43230 miles away in south-east London...
03:46...lived two other mums...
03:47...at the opposite end of the wealth divide!
03:50Do you want to play it up, Teagan?
03:51No, you can!
03:52Best friends Teagan and Maria!
03:54We've known each other for about 15 years...
03:57...16 years, actually!
03:59Oh, sorry!
04:01Can you throw some jerk on the lamb, just a little bit?
04:04A little bit or a lot, you know how I love pepper!
04:06I know!
04:08Teagan gave up her job in interior design four years ago...
04:11...to focus on her three young children!
04:14You have to swing!
04:17It's non-stop, you do not get a break...
04:20...there's always something that you need to do!
04:23While single mum Maria has two older kids...
04:26...and has a part-time job front of house at a record label!
04:29I used to work full-time, unfortunately I was made redundant...
04:33...I'm used to getting full-time money...
04:35...but the job market's not that great, so I'm doing what I can!
04:39The mums have just £55 a week disposable income between them...
04:44...and Maria keeps down food costs by growing her own!
04:47I have an allotment, this is something that I love...
04:51...I've got garlics and spring onions in here...
04:54...but I've got more potatoes pushing through!
04:56Creative Teagan has her own passion...
04:58...and hopes for a more secure future...
05:01...balancing the children with a business dream!
05:04I really want to work for myself...
05:06...I would love to set up a business...
05:08...creating craft parties for kids!
05:12When it comes to holidays...
05:14...all they can afford are kiddie-focused caravan breaks!
05:17We enjoy being by the sea...
05:19...we love making food, cooking...
05:21...sometimes bring some stuff with us...
05:23...to keep Costa...
05:24...can't forget my hot pepper sauce!
05:26We always try to make the most out of it...
05:28...with the funds that we have!
05:31This getaway is a chance for some kid-free me time!
05:34So what do they want from their five-star vacation?
05:37Adrenaline activities or sports...
05:39...anything like that, I'm always up for a challenge!
05:41When we're at home we do all the catering...
05:44...being catered to would be a luxury!
05:47Yes!
05:48Just as long as the fancy foods up to scratch!
05:51The whole idea of a fine-dining...
05:54...you know those tiny-ass plates?
05:56It's not for me!
05:57Deegan, you always get hungry!
05:59Angry!
06:00If I'm not fed properly...
06:02...then we have a problem!
06:06As for their mystery-minted travel buddies...
06:09I think the only thing that will grind my gears...
06:11...is someone that feels they're so entitled!
06:13If the rich family doesn't want to get involved with our activities...
06:18...then I won't feel any way about telling them to fix up!
06:25It's the moment of truth!
06:27You ready?
06:28Yeah!
06:28Are you sure?
06:29Are you sure?
06:30No!
06:31The pairs will be spending your week together on two very different trips!
06:36Do you want to do the honors?
06:37First up, a luxury break that's the norm for Bonnie and Paul!
06:42You're heading to the French Alps!
06:45The French Alps!
06:47Oh my gosh!
06:48You'll be staying in the lap of luxury...
06:50...for the very best in winter sports...
06:52...and world-class sport experience!
06:54Ah!
06:55Oh my God!
06:58Everyone's off snowboarding...
06:59...and they're doing it in style...
07:01...at the Chichi French Resort of Alpe d'Huez...
07:05...with more than 250 kilometres of pristine peace!
07:08They'll spend the first half of the week at the five-star Grand Rues Hotel & Spa...
07:13...offering panoramic views, exceptional wellness facilities...
07:18...and tennis court-sized suites...
07:20...it's the perfect place to unwind apres-ski!
07:24Do you think that we'll be doing bobslaying?
07:30It's day one!
07:33I'm ready to ski!
07:36Whilst the seasoned skiers pack their posh gear...
07:39Snowboard gloves in!
07:41...Maria is smuggling in the hot sauce!
07:44I've got the seasoning ready, just in case the food's not up to scratch!
07:47Ready?
07:48Yep, let's go!
07:49I'm excited to get into that snow!
07:51So, so excited!
07:52I can't wait!
07:54The flight to France is an hour and a half...
07:57...and the pairs will meet for the first time...
08:00...after they check in at their swanky Alpine hotel!
08:03I'm actually getting nervous!
08:04I'm going off this mountain!
08:06I don't think these railings are high enough!
08:08It's so nice to see the snow again!
08:10Oh my gosh, I'm so excited!
08:13I'm gobsmacked!
08:16More use to a caravan break...
08:18...this top-notch hotel is a major upgrade!
08:21Proper looks like a gingerbread house!
08:23Fun in!
08:24How lush is this?
08:27Ooh!
08:28It's so nice!
08:30It's so pretty!
08:31I actually feel, like, emotional!
08:35For the hard-up mums...
08:37Oh!
08:38Ooh!
08:39Ooh!
08:40Nice!
08:42...a suite each...
08:43...more than twice the size of Teagan's flat...
08:46This is a bit of me, amor!
08:49...at a cost of £869 a night...
08:52...it's more than her monthly rent!
08:54Look at the room!
08:55The house!
08:59You're in heaven!
09:00I'm in a cloud!
09:01For the jet-setting DJs...
09:04...it's the kind of luxury they expect...
09:06...on their frequent five-star halls!
09:09Let's have a look at what wardrobe space is...
09:11...for all your clothes!
09:12It's probably not enough...
09:14...just about enough for all my ski outfits, I think!
09:17Look at the top!
09:19Lovely!
09:20Do you think it'd be cheeky if we take the youth home with us?
09:23Maria!
09:25What do you think the other couple are going to be like?
09:28Surely nobody can come somewhere like this and not enjoy it!
09:32You've just reminded me how nervous I feel now about meeting them!
09:37But they can't put it off any longer!
09:39Hi!
09:40Hi!
09:41I'm Bonnie!
09:42Nice to meet you!
09:42I'm Maria!
09:43Hiya, are you okay?
09:44Yeah, I'm fine, thank you!
09:45It's finally time for the very different pairs to rendezvous!
09:49How's your hotel room?
09:51Lovely!
09:51The view!
09:52I know, it's amazing!
09:54Just even...
09:54The bar!
09:56It is beautiful!
09:57Beautiful place!
09:58Skiing is expensive, isn't it?
10:00It is an expensive holiday, yeah, definitely!
10:04What do you guys do?
10:05I am working part-time at the moment for a record label!
10:09Oh, that's great!
10:10I'm just in full-time mummy mode at the moment!
10:12Oh, right!
10:13Yeah, I have three kids!
10:14Wow!
10:15So we met through DJing, which is, you know, my work and Paul's work!
10:19I'm so interested in what they do, they're DJs!
10:23I was thinking there would be something in finance, you know?
10:26So is this your usual type of holiday?
10:28I was literally here, in this resort, probably ten days ago!
10:32Ten days ago!
10:33Ten days ago!
10:33No way!
10:34Yeah, I know!
10:35Body was here ten days ago, she said!
10:38So that's how you know she's got that money!
10:43Have you ever been skiing, snowboarding?
10:46No, no winter sports, nothing along those lines, so I'm terrified of breaking something!
10:52If it all goes wrong, I'll pull you round in a sled, it'll be fine!
10:55LAUGHTER
10:57On this part of the holiday, the group will be joining in with the kind of activities Paul and Bonnie
11:03fork out thousands for.
11:05Carving the mountains.
11:07Maybe skiing or snowboarding.
11:09Scaling the heights.
11:12And fine French dining.
11:14I think that's my big concern.
11:16Yeah.
11:16Am I going to be full?
11:17Room service afterwards.
11:18Yeah.
11:19Yeah.
11:21On the posh leg of the trip, Maria and Tegan will have to holiday Bonnie's way or the highway.
11:27Make the most of it, even if at some point you think it's not for you and you can't do
11:34it.
11:35100%.
11:38Coming up...
11:39What am I going?
11:41It's a bumpy start to the luxury holiday.
11:44Snowboarding was so difficult.
11:47And posh French food.
11:48I think it needs a bit of hot sauce.
11:50Fails to impress.
11:51Where's the rest?
11:53I'm missing part of the dish.
12:02A couple of globe-trotting DJs...
12:04I want a beautiful view, a beautiful balcony and great food.
12:08...are showing a pair of cash-strap mums...
12:11It is a bit of meat and more.
12:13...how to do a winter break in the Shishi French Alps.
12:16Surely nobody can come somewhere like this and not enjoy it.
12:20Do you think it would be cheeky if we take these home with us?
12:22Maria!
12:27It's day two of the luxury holiday.
12:29Off to my first snowboard lesson.
12:32More used to the school run, a ski run is uncharted terrain for Maria and Tegan.
12:38Maria, are you ready to do by yourself?
12:40Indeed I am.
12:41With equipment higher and lift buses for the group, it's more than 400 quid a day.
12:46Absolutely terrified.
12:48Before they're even on the piece.
12:51Whilst experts Bonnie and Paul head for the steeper slopes, the novices begin with the basics.
12:57Knees, hip, shoulder, parallel.
13:00Bonnie and Paul left us. It was too slow for them.
13:03I give you some speed like that.
13:05Yes. Very nice.
13:08At a cost of £153, this three-hour lesson with instructor Silva is more than Tegan's monthly disposable income.
13:17Do you think you're able to do it?
13:18I don't know. I'll try.
13:20And way out of the mum's comfort zone.
13:23I think it lasted a bit much from me.
13:25I've definitely changed since becoming a mum.
13:28I was a lot more of a daredevil and I'll be up for anything.
13:33Three, two, one, go. Yes.
13:36I'm just going to tell myself to give it a go, try to stay alive and get back hope to
13:41your kids.
13:42But as the terrain gets steeper...
13:45You will have to turn your shoulder and then...
13:48What am I doing?
13:49To sit down. Yes, try the backside turn.
13:52Very good. Yes.
13:55So does the learning curve.
13:58Work it.
14:00Did not work. Definitely burning some calories.
14:04Snowboarding was so difficult.
14:10Slowly dying.
14:12Despite the uphill struggle, Tegan's confidence starts to grow.
14:17Your position is very good, front side. It's good, it's good.
14:20It was so fun. It was exhilarating.
14:23She's got it going on.
14:24I'm taking it at my pace because I don't want to be breaking no bones.
14:28Better get back to practicing.
14:32I was definitely the best snowboarder out of me and Maria.
14:362030, watch out for me. Winter Olympics.
14:40Plus the instructor said, so...
14:44It's not just my words.
14:48Look at Bonnie and Paul.
14:50I know, innit?
14:51Go on, guys.
14:52OK, sorry, professionals.
14:54Look at show us.
14:57How did you find your lesson?
14:58I loved it, it was great.
15:00Would you do it again?
15:01Yeah, yeah, 100%. I love it.
15:03They've both done it really, really well to the best of their ability
15:07and I'm sure that they will want to do it again.
15:11Let's see you at the bottom.
15:12What?
15:13Maybe this trip will push me to discover the old Tegan again
15:18and push myself out there.
15:25After a day of falling on the slopes,
15:27this evening's soiree at their five-star hotel promises to be a little more dignified.
15:33Hi, guys.
15:34You look lovely.
15:36Yeah.
15:37More use to a campsite cook-up.
15:39This fine dining experience should be a rare treat for keen cooks, Maria and Tegan.
15:44So we have a very traditional French cuisine.
15:47And the five-star aficionados are taking the lead.
15:50Me and Bonnie decided that we would choose Tegan and Maria's food just to give them an experience of what
15:58we would eat.
15:59I'm not used to not being in control.
16:01If this food is not up to my standards, we're going to have a problem.
16:06So we'll have the 30 grams of caviar, please.
16:11The frogrois?
16:12The frogrois.
16:13I'm really worried that it's going to be frog legs, snails, something along those lines.
16:19We have the frogrois with the duck. Thank you.
16:23I thought frogrois was like frog's legs or something.
16:27Frogrois is like a duck liver patty.
16:29Okay. Oh, liver I'm not a big fan of. But mixed with duck, I think I will give it a
16:34go.
16:35It's actually duck's liver.
16:38It might be water off a duck's back for Bonnie and Paul, but Maria avoids liver like the plague.
16:45Tell me if I'm doing this wrong.
16:46Don't overthink it.
16:51What's your thoughts?
16:52The smell made me heave.
16:54Do you think so? I just said it smelled nice.
16:56But then when I tried it, it was actually all right.
16:58So, yeah. Okay, good.
17:00There were quite a few awkward moments during the meal this evening.
17:04The size of the plates, I think, affected the enjoyment of the meal for them.
17:09Where's the rest? I'm missing part of the dish.
17:13They definitely was looking at the food and kind of turning their nose up before they'd even tried it.
17:19It's cost nearly 400 quid for a few small plates. Can a cauliflower valuté convince Maria and Tegan it's money
17:28well spent?
17:29How's it safe?
17:31Smells really good. Smells very good. Tastes very bland.
17:35I think it needs a bit of hot sauce.
17:38Unbelievable.
17:40I can't believe it.
17:41I've never experienced what she did anywhere in my life.
17:45Oh, my God.
17:46I have no words for that. It's not something I would ever do.
17:51Wow. That's something I've never seen before.
17:53Bring your own sauce.
17:56Bonnie was so shocked. Her mouth dropped.
18:00Jazzed up the food, though.
18:02Do you think your soup tastes better now?
18:04Yeah. Good.
18:04I definitely prefer my own cooking.
18:07I'm still starving.
18:09Day two. It's early morning in the mountains.
18:12Just had a beautiful night's sleep.
18:15And this bed is literally hugging me right now.
18:18But there's no time for a lie-in.
18:20The group are heading for the highest viewpoint in Alpe d'Huez, almost 1,500 metres above them.
18:27And Tegan's scared of heights.
18:30These doors are going to close, right?
18:31Yeah, they're fine.
18:33You look slightly nervous.
18:36We're going to the top of the mountain, and I am absolutely terrified.
18:41Oh, my goodness.
18:44Would you snowball down this slope?
18:46Definitely. Definitely. It's quite straightforward.
18:52A day's lift pass costs £57 a person.
18:56Small fry to big-spending bonnie.
18:59What's the most expensive activity you've done?
19:01I've spent thousands on helicopter rides over the years.
19:05I took my family to go up in a helicopter and watch the whole sunset over Florida.
19:12And then we went to Hawaii, and then we finished it off with four days in Las Vegas partying.
19:19How much was that?
19:20£30,000.
19:24That's a deposit on her ass.
19:27Wow, wow, wow. £30,000. That's not even my wage for the year.
19:32To make those kind of core memories for people, for me, it costs money.
19:36I can tell by the way that they were looking at me and reacted.
19:40They definitely didn't agree, and I don't think they were very impressed with my point of view.
19:44I don't agree that money buys better memories.
19:47When it comes to good memories, money does not have to be involved.
19:52The gulf between their lifestyles is becoming more apparent.
19:56Will they ever be able to see things from each other's point of view?
20:00Wow!
20:01Oh my goodness! Gracious!
20:04Wow!
20:05My stomach's going a bit...
20:06How are you telling me about that view then?
20:08It's getting so close!
20:10Beautiful!
20:12Wow!
20:14At 3,330 metres above sea level, you can see a fifth of France from this world-class viewpoint.
20:22Teagan overcome the anxiety she had of going up that high, and they embraced and took on what I said
20:29about coming out of their comfort zone.
20:31That was a massive accomplishment for me. I felt at peace. I really wish that I could have brought my
20:37kids to see what I saw.
20:40The views were spectacular.
20:42Literally on top of the world. It's breathtaking.
20:49It's the final day of the luxury holiday, and the group are indulging in a morning of five-star relaxation.
20:57For Paul and Maria, there's a chance to chill at the outdoor wellness area.
21:01Come on!
21:02Just even get out of that little comfort zone!
21:05Ah!
21:08Whilst Teagan and Bonnie share a luxury copper bath treatment, costing £140 for two.
21:15Bonnie, no farted!
21:18Rich in oils, a long hot soak in the alpine-scented water should release any tension.
21:25Me and Teagan don't see eye to eye on everything, and there has been some awkward moments.
21:31But I was looking forward to being able to find out a bit more about her.
21:36How do you find it being away from the kids? Is it nice having a break?
21:38It's nice having a break, but still missing them.
21:41Yeah, just wishing they could experience it as well.
21:43But I'm just saying, you know, I miss my children back home in London.
21:48What does your day look like?
21:50Yeah, so currently I'm not working. My main focus is the kids.
21:54There's always something to do. You're always giving something.
21:56You probably need to kind of put a bit more time aside for yourself.
22:00It was lovely spending some one-on-one time with Bonnie, just getting to know each other a little bit
22:04more.
22:05As your kids get a bit older and stuff, where do you see yourself going?
22:09I would like my work to evolve around my kids. I need to work for myself.
22:14I went back to work when my children started school. Yeah.
22:17So if you can make that happen, that would be the best thing for you and your children. Yeah.
22:24DJing really isn't about the money as motivation. I want my kids to look at me and think, that's my
22:30mum.
22:31Me and Bonnie are really family orientated. We do have similar stuff that's in common.
22:37I really hope for Tegan that once her children are at school, she finds that drive and motivation to follow
22:43her dream.
22:46It's almost time to leave luxury behind. But before they bid adieu, there's a chance to reflect on this five
22:53-star trip.
22:54What was your favourite part? Up in the mountains, that was beautiful.
22:58That was a good highlight. My favourite part was definitely the snowboarding.
23:01Yeah. Even though I fell about a hundred times. You've done so well though, honestly.
23:07I absolutely loved it. The winter wonderlands melted their hearts.
23:12But what's the total cost for the group for a few days in the snow?
23:20£16,416. You're lying. No way.
23:24Do you think it was money well spent? No.
23:27For £16,000 for four of us, we could do about 20 caravan holidays.
23:34Bar Tegan and Maria's budget breaks Bonnie and Paul's idea of holiday hell.
23:39There you go.
23:41Time to turn the tables on the jet-setting DJs.
23:44Oh, I feel a bit sick.
23:48Head down the mountain to collect your keys, experience life on wheels,
23:53and embrace your holiday where you'll live the simple life away from the luxuries.
24:01The group are heading down the mountain, 111 kilometres north,
24:06to the no-frills campsite, Le Lac St. Clair.
24:10Unbeknownst to camping-foe Bonnie,
24:12they'll be bunking up in a motorhome with cramped quarters,
24:16using shared facilities and making their meals in a tiny kitchen.
24:20We're going to allocate Bonnie to do all of our cooking.
24:24No! No, no, no.
24:26You might be ill.
24:30Coming up...
24:31This is awful.
24:32Will jet-setter Bonnie...
24:34It feels like we've parked up in a service station.
24:37...cope...
24:37Oh, my God.
24:41...in a camper van.
24:42I'm just really tired.
24:44This is, like, so out of my comfort zone.
24:54Two hard-up pals...
24:56...ready to ski...
24:57...for the first time in their lives...
25:01...have been lapping up luxury...
25:03You're in heaven.
25:04...all a cloud.
25:05...in a winter wonderland.
25:07Goodness gracious.
25:09Wow.
25:10It's breathtaking.
25:11Now it's their turn to show their five-star companions...
25:14...you'll live the simple life away from the luxuries.
25:18...how to holiday on a shoestring.
25:20We're going to allocate Bonnie to do all of our cooking.
25:23No!
25:24No, no, no.
25:27It's day one of the budget break.
25:30Let's all say it together, guys.
25:32La, la, la.
25:34And arriving at their low-cost campsite...
25:37...Bonnie's struggling to take it all in.
25:39This doesn't look like a holiday.
25:40It looks like someone's garden.
25:43But Bonnie hasn't seen anything yet.
25:46Show us the way.
25:48I'm presuming that's where we're staying.
25:50Indeed.
25:52Oh, my God.
25:53With my experience of doing holidays like this in the past...
25:57...I think Bonnie is going to struggle a bit.
25:59She's never done it before.
26:00I'll definitely be the one coping better.
26:03It feels like we've parked up in a service station temporarily.
26:06It doesn't feel like a holiday.
26:08Hiring a plot and campervan here works out at £120 a night.
26:13Almost seven times cheaper than Teagan's luxury suite.
26:17It looks very simple and very basic...
26:19...and very budget.
26:23So, how do the group's compact campers...
26:28...compared to their top-class snowy retreat?
26:30It's so hot in here already.
26:33There is only enough room for me in that bed.
26:36And then there's your toilet...
26:38...and washroom basin...
26:40...and shower.
26:41Is that honestly the shower?
26:43I think this looks like a rubbish holiday, I'll be honest.
26:47You can't tell me that this looks like fun.
26:49It is tiny.
26:51This is the budget holiday, so dig in.
26:55Meanwhile...
26:55Good old cooker.
26:56We can cook some good meals.
26:59Oh, very nice.
27:01For Teagan and Maria, it's a bit of what they're used to.
27:04Beautiful.
27:05I absolutely love it.
27:06I love campervan holidays.
27:08Getting out of London, you know, getting that fresher air...
27:12...makes a huge difference.
27:13This is awful.
27:15Just got to get through the next few days.
27:17I don't want to be getting through a holiday.
27:20I think I'll be run ragged dealing with Bonnie's emotions...
27:24...and getting her through it.
27:28Paul camped as a kid, but Bonnie is much less used to a holiday on wheels.
27:33There's so many aspects of this trip that already are a bit too much for me.
27:38My holiday's got about three times harder.
27:42Now we're going to have to deal with Bonnie.
27:47So, what thrifty activities do Teagan and Maria have in store?
27:53Foraging for flavour.
27:55I just can't see how that is going to be fun.
27:58Getting crafty.
28:00I'm into my arts and crafts.
28:02Pentank you.
28:03That's a petonk, Paul.
28:05Riding in unison.
28:09That better be on horse.
28:12She needs to embrace it.
28:14Bonnie's also got to embrace their self-catering plan.
28:18Cooking has to be done by Bonnie only.
28:21Oh, God.
28:22That's probably the worst rule you could have set me up.
28:25I hope that toilet's alright over there.
28:27And they'll have to bring all this in on Maria and Teagan's usual budget.
28:33For food and activities, €343.95.
28:41For me and you?
28:42No, that's for all four.
28:43All four of us.
28:44That's £150 per couple for three days.
28:48I spend more than that in one supermarket shop.
28:51I don't think for one second that you can have a good holiday on a £25 per person per day
28:59budget.
29:01Bonnie was brought up used to five star.
29:04Will she last the camper van course?
29:06You have to move her up.
29:08I am a roof table.
29:09Can you check for spiders?
29:10There's no spiders here.
29:11I was just now.
29:13Ah, there's another spider.
29:16Oh, my God.
29:18Day two of the budget break.
29:21Morning.
29:23Breakfast time.
29:24I got a bit of sausage, avocado, and a hot pepper sauce.
29:32Bonnie's a bit stressed this morning.
29:35Incident last night with a spider in the bed.
29:38It took me two or three hours to fall asleep last night because I felt so anxious.
29:44I'm just really tired.
29:46I'm really stressed.
29:53This is, like, so out of my comfort zone.
30:01So, guys, how was your night last night?
30:04Interested.
30:05I didn't have the best night, I'll be honest.
30:08I feel like the first night's always the worst night.
30:11Yeah.
30:11And hopefully our activity today will...
30:14Night in the mood.
30:16Well, it can't get any worse.
30:17Or can it?
30:19Green-fingered Maria loves a forage.
30:22And they're about to rootle in the woods for food.
30:25Helped out by local experts, Vincent and his VIP partner.
30:29You present Michel.
30:32It's a big personality.
30:33It's a mayor.
30:34You're the mayor.
30:35The mayor.
30:36Oh, hi.
30:38Their foraging guides are friends of the campsite, giving up their time for free.
30:43On the menu, wild garlic.
30:46You pick up when the floor is closed.
30:49OK.
30:50Because when the floor is open, it's a poison.
30:53Oh, wow.
30:55OK.
30:56It's a bit of me, relating to me doing my allotment.
31:01We can explore the forest.
31:03Yeah, that sounds great.
31:04We'll see what we can go in source.
31:07Oh, look, there's like a little waterfall, guys.
31:10It is pretty.
31:12Don't stand too close to the garlic!
31:15That's dinner.
31:16Later.
31:16Yeah.
31:17Known locally as bear's garlic.
31:20Look at that smells.
31:21It's different.
31:22The delicate leaves can be used to flavour food.
31:26Are you going to stand and watch it?
31:28I just don't like it in case there's spiders.
31:29Yeah, there's no spiders on this.
31:31I don't think Bonnie's a bit impressed with that activity.
31:34No, she doesn't look impressed at all.
31:36Very disengaged.
31:38Yeah, try a little bit harder.
31:39Yeah, have a little bit of fun.
31:41It was lovely to see that Maria is so happy to be out digging for garlic,
31:46but I would have preferred just to walk through the woods myself.
31:51This break is going sideways fast and needs emergency measures.
31:56Can the next activity convince Bonnie there's a bright side to budget fun?
32:01Does anyone know the rules?
32:03No.
32:04With the classic French game of petanque.
32:07The loser washes up after my cooking.
32:11Deal.
32:11If there's a way, Bonnie will cheat.
32:14To win.
32:15The rules are simple.
32:17Closest to the yellow ball wins.
32:20It's high stakes on this game.
32:28Yes, Bonnie.
32:30In a sudden turnaround, money doesn't matter.
32:36And Bonnie's building more bridges with Tegan.
32:40Oh!
32:42It's obvious that Tegan is extremely competitive, like myself.
32:46Yes!
32:48That's what I'm talking about.
32:50I've definitely seen a different side of her with this game.
32:533-1.
32:54No.
32:556-0.
32:57Oh, now you want to be equal.
32:59I just hope Bonnie and Paula has learned that sometimes the sinful things in lives are the best thing.
33:05Shit, we need one more point.
33:06Take it away.
33:08Bravo.
33:09We got this Tegan.
33:13Let's do the one.
33:14We won!
33:16We won!
33:18Now we have lost the game of bowls and we're doing the washing up too, so it's not going well
33:22for us.
33:23All right, let's go for dinner now.
33:28Too posh to cook Bonnie's been ordered into the tiny camper kitchen.
33:33What could possibly go wrong?
33:35It's not really seasoned.
33:36What, you think more?
33:38Yeah, loads more.
33:39Cash-strapped Tegan and Maria self-cater to save and half the £300 budget has gone on provisions for the
33:46holiday.
33:47A far cry from fine dining.
33:49I'm cooking a recipe that Tegan and Maria have given me for stew chicken with rice and coles.
33:57This is definitely out of Bonnie's comfort zone.
34:00She don't cook at all.
34:01How much onion do you want?
34:02I don't know, it doesn't say.
34:04The pressure to cook a meal for everybody genuinely makes me feel really anxious.
34:11I'm actually a creative person, so you'd think that I would enjoy creating a nice food, but I really don't.
34:18Cooking is really important to us.
34:20I feel like the best meals bring the best memories.
34:23And this one Tegan and Maria will definitely remember.
34:27Oh, I put the nutmeg in the chicken.
34:30I've done this wrong already, haven't I?
34:32Crikey.
34:33Spicy stewed chicken is a Tegan and Maria staple, and they're getting hungry.
34:38I've done it wrong.
34:40Oh, did you?
34:41How?
34:41I added the nutmeg, the condiment, and the tine to the chicken, because I thought I had to add all
34:47of it.
34:48You're joking, right?
34:49No.
34:51Shall I go get the ketchup?
34:52No.
34:53Yeah, why not?
34:53We've already never pronounced it.
34:55Bonnie's went to be following our recipe.
34:58She's gone and it up.
35:02It's not cooked yet.
35:03She did try it, ain't it?
35:05Yeah, she did.
35:05With no sign of chicken tonight.
35:08Do you want some hot pepper sauce?
35:11No, but I might eat some bread and butter in a minute.
35:14I'm so hungry.
35:15It's back to basics before bed.
35:21We're just washing up, neighbours.
35:25Day three of the budget break.
35:27I come on holiday to avoid doing the stuff I do at home.
35:32Now, time to enjoy the holiday freedom.
35:34Scooch over.
35:36Yeah?
35:37Only a camper can give you.
35:39All aboard with Bonnie and Paul.
35:42They're off to beautiful Lake Annecy.
35:45We're taking the camper van to go cycling today.
35:48This is something that me and Maria would do on our holidays.
35:51Are we there yet?
35:54I didn't ever really ride a bike as a teenager or an adult and this does not feel like a
36:01fun task to me at all.
36:06And the mischievous mates have booked Bonnie and Paul a tandem.
36:10Have you seen our bike?
36:12Yes.
36:13So cycling in unison.
36:15Yeah.
36:15For a full day of fun.
36:17Oh, don't go too fast.
36:19The higher cost is £17 ahead.
36:22We've got to get going first.
36:23No, I'm going for you.
36:24Because I can't control anything.
36:26No, you'll be fine.
36:27Really?
36:27No.
36:28Come on, guys.
36:29Right, we're going.
36:30No, no, no.
36:30We're going.
36:32No, no, no.
36:33Stop.
36:35Don't worry about it.
36:36At first, Bonnie looked like she was, like, pooing her pants.
36:41Stop playing.
36:45Bonnie's not rode a bike since she was eight, so he looks like I'll be doing a lot of the
36:50work.
36:51Right, we're going.
36:52One, two, three.
36:53And we go.
36:54Other foot, go.
36:56Just sit still.
36:58She definitely had no feet on the pedals.
37:01Put your feet on the pedals.
37:03And my eardrums were burst, I think, with a screaming.
37:09Don't worry about it.
37:10Don't worry about it.
37:16The group are on the Alpine Lake Annecy Cycle Loop in the Haute-Savoie region.
37:22Just keep your feet on the pedals, Bonnie.
37:25Don't be kicking me off my bike now.
37:27This is what it's all about for me and Maria.
37:30I love to get out on the bikes, you know, get my heart pumping and see some beautiful scenery.
37:36Oh, look at the cows!
37:38As time went on, I did relax a little bit more, but Paul done all the hard work.
37:44Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
37:50Look at him going!
37:54Oh, beautiful!
37:56Funny, isn't it?
37:57Yeah, it's pretty.
37:59It was windy, it was wet and cold, but the views of the lake and the mountains were stunning.
38:05With the weather closing in and no expensive distractions.
38:09And this is a lovely spot to end the bike ride.
38:13Paul opens up about their high-spending holiday habits.
38:19I think six years ago, I had open heart surgery.
38:22So a valve replacement and aortic root repair.
38:25Obviously, I was born with it.
38:27And finding out that and then coming through the other side just leads you into,
38:31you've only got one life, so why not live it?
38:34No, I definitely get that with living every day,
38:37because that's one of my mottos.
38:38Live your best life till your fullest.
38:41I know, like, it's not your sort of holiday,
38:43but do you feel like you're making some new memories?
38:46Just pedalling out of the bike shop is a massive memory for us already,
38:51which I'll never forget.
38:57Coming up, the bond between the group grows.
39:00I would say just go for it.
39:02No dream is ever too big.
39:04But will Bonnie ever buy into a budget holiday?
39:08The one trip that I'll probably remember the most.
39:20It's coming to the end of the budget break.
39:24Hey, guys.
39:26Hello.
39:27And Teagan spent the last of the kitty on a wet weather activity
39:31she'd love to turn in to a full-time job.
39:34Are you lot ready to do some crafting?
39:36Yeah.
39:37So today we are going to make our own mosaic charcuterie boards.
39:42Oh, wow.
39:42Yeah.
39:43I feel like our theme should be memories.
39:47Yeah?
39:47Memories of this holiday.
39:48Yes.
39:49There's plenty of those, aren't there?
39:51Yeah.
39:52All right, should we get stuck in?
39:53Yes.
39:53You all like this, won't you?
39:54I love it.
39:55If I can open the glue.
39:59Teagan, you do a lot of crafts and you're looking at maybe starting a bit of a business.
40:04I do a lot for kids, do craft parties and my idea is to create a craft party bus.
40:13The kids love it, don't they?
40:14Oh, yeah.
40:15They absolutely love it.
40:16And seeing their faces doing something so simple is amazing.
40:21And the thing is, they get to keep what they make.
40:23So they always have those memories with them.
40:26What's going on with not getting business up and running and...
40:32Obviously, the finance.
40:34Yeah.
40:34It's the cost of the van.
40:35And it boils down to time as well, being a mum of three.
40:39It's hard to, you know, try and focus on everything and trying to get things done.
40:45If it is something that you really feel passionate about, I would say just go for it.
40:50Like, no dream is ever too big.
40:53Yeah.
40:54And the things that we've seen you do on this trip, you've put so much effort in.
40:59So if you can do that here, imagine what you're capable of doing about something that you genuinely have that
41:04passion for.
41:06I'm hoping for Tegan that she has been inspired enough to get her craft business on the road.
41:14Bonnie and Paul, they immerse themselves in their work so that they can provide a luxury life for themselves.
41:20It motivates me to go out there and work harder and push myself towards my dreams.
41:26Would everyone like to discuss their piece of artwork?
41:30So basically, this is just a memory of the last couple of days giving us a bit of the greenery
41:38that we're surrounded with to end the trip.
41:41Mine's just a...what I enjoyed most, really, the mountains.
41:45So this is my got.
41:47And I'm going to call it peak times.
41:51I love it.
41:52Aw, that's cute.
41:54Well, as you can see, mine's not finished yet.
41:57It might not be complete, but it's clear who's got the crafty touch.
42:02I really enjoyed doing this activity.
42:04Me too.
42:05And it will always remind us of our time together.
42:08And there's definitely a lot of memories that we won't ever forget as well.
42:14The holiday has had a deep impact on both couples.
42:17Shall we take a seat here?
42:19Yeah.
42:20I feel shattered.
42:21And the time has come to look back on the highs and lows.
42:25It was a bit of a struggle at points, but obviously it was nice to spend some time together where
42:31it weren't luxury and you have to dig in a bit.
42:34Yeah.
42:35And I definitely feel like it tested me on every level possible.
42:39I think we all know what I would say.
42:42I would choose one luxury holiday, but the camping holidays have made me appreciate the luxury holiday a lot more,
42:51I think.
42:52Obviously, I'd love a luxury holiday all the time, but it's about what we can afford.
42:57Yeah, the reality of putting that into motion.
43:00There's one more thing to learn.
43:02How does the price of the budget break for all four compared to the 16 grand luxury ski trip?
43:08Yeah.
43:10Wow.
43:11The total bill for your holiday is £960.
43:16So less than £250 per person.
43:19Per person.
43:19Wow.
43:20There's a big difference between that and our holiday.
43:23Tell me about it.
43:25Remember when we were saying we could do like 16 to 20, 20 other days?
43:28Yeah.
43:29I don't know if I've got it in me to do 20 of these holidays.
43:32But I feel like we laughed and got to know each other a lot better down here doing very simple
43:42activities.
43:43So overall, I have to be honest and say, the one trip that I'll probably remember the most...
43:50Is this one.
43:51Is the budget holiday.
43:53Aww.
43:55You see? You see?
43:56Yeah.
43:57As I told you, sometimes it's a simple thing.
44:00Yeah.
44:00So where are we camping next?
44:06Back on home soil.
44:08It's good to be home and good to be out of the caravan.
44:12The couples are reflecting on their trip.
44:14I'm so glad that we all got along.
44:16The trip was fantastic.
44:18It had so many elements which made me feel like this is the type of life I would like to
44:24live.
44:26Tegan and Maria were great.
44:28They were great fun.
44:29Just opened people's eyes up at what you can do on a budget holiday.
44:34Does money buy happiness?
44:36I would still say no, it doesn't.
44:39Because right now, I'm at my happiest being home.
44:42I know.
44:50I know.
45:09I have to look in my books.
45:10I'll see you guys later.
45:10If we are sitting around here.
