00:00Welcome to Florida
00:02We're having a party
00:04Home to theme parks, golden tans
00:06and 400,000 Brits
00:08This one is the one with the view
00:10Wow
00:10Who've made the sunshine state their new home
00:14I feel blessed every single day
00:16I'm living the American dream
00:17I definitely am
00:18They've swapped drizzly winters and gas bills
00:21for new careers and seemingly
00:23endless fun in the sun
00:24Two, one
00:26Yay!
00:28Get it right and life in Florida
00:30can be like a dream come true
00:32I get to drive a convertible, it's fabulous
00:34But getting here and staying here
00:37takes hard work
00:38Good job, good job, keep it going team
00:40Grit
00:42And determination
00:44The glamorous side of living in Florida
00:46These are the Brits who've made their own
00:48Escape to Florida
00:54Today on Escape to Florida
00:56Let's get it out of the box
00:58Joanne from Hull
00:59Finds herself in a tight spot
01:01As she fixes up a property to sell
01:03So I think
01:06That is going to have to come off
01:08Liverpool born Lee struggles to keep his wife's birthday party a surprise
01:13It's my wife's birthday
01:14I'm going to give her a little surprise birthday for her
01:16Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
01:18And Andreas from Southampton
01:20And Andreas from Southampton
01:20Has to weave some magic
01:21To impress his teenage daughter
01:23They basically call me
01:25Andreas Harry Potter
01:26Bird
01:32Tampa on the Gulf Coast
01:34Is a Florida property hotspot
01:36And home for the last 21 years
01:38To mum of two
01:39Estate agent Joanne from Hull
01:41Who also does up houses to sell on
01:45Everything should be fine
01:46If it's not today, it'll be tomorrow
01:47My parents started a real estate
01:50Mortgage business when I was 16
01:51And I started out as their assistant
01:54Working with them
01:55I actually bought my first car
01:56And my first house
01:57Flipping houses with my dad
01:59Are they doing their signing today?
02:02Erm, I think so
02:04OK
02:04It is definitely kind of ironic
02:07That the tables have turned
02:08My very first job was as my mum's assistant
02:11And now she's my assistant
02:15Joanne's son, 18-year-old Angelo
02:17Is also hoping to join the family business
02:20Thanks, Mum
02:22What are you going to do for lunch?
02:23I got some sandwiches yesterday
02:26Angelo's graduating from high school this month
02:28He wants to go to college
02:30And get a business degree
02:31And then he eventually
02:33Come and work with me full-time
02:34Once you've finished your breakfast
02:35We are going to head to the office real quick
02:38I've got a lot box
02:39I have to drop off to Grandma
02:40And get some keys from Jane
02:41So get to see Grandma today
02:43OK
02:44Also known as Joanne's assistant at work
02:47Her mum, Jeannie
02:49Hello
02:50Nice of you to show up
02:51Mmm
02:53Nice to see you, sweetheart
02:55My mum is the best assistant ever
02:57I do give her grief a lot with the banter
03:00I try and keep it professional
03:02But every once in a while it slips
03:04What am I looking in? Dash or...?
03:07No, that's fine
03:08Could you go any slower?
03:12We actually get on really well
03:15She'll sometimes go
03:16Oh, mother!
03:17And I go
03:19All right
03:20Love you, bye
03:21Bye
03:22Bye, sweetheart
03:23See you soon
03:23Love you
03:24All right
03:25Get some work done
03:26Oh
03:27Slacker
03:27All right, let's go
03:29Luckily, Joanne's next stop is just down the hall
03:32To see office manager, fellow Brit and best pal Jane
03:36I need to pick up the keys for 20
03:39Jane has been my best friend now for about the past six years
03:42We take every single vacation together
03:44We're together every weekend
03:47There's really not much that we don't do together
03:51Yeah
03:51Awesome, thank you
03:52I need to shred this
03:55Joanne's main job today is working at her most recent purchase
03:58A two-bed condo she bought six months ago
04:01To do up and sell on as quickly as possible
04:04Something else she does with her pals
04:07Jane's husband Billy is my partner for the flip
04:11So he's the one that we'll be meeting down at the condo
04:14I think this is our fourth or fifth one that we've done together
04:18He's tired, I'm just warning you
04:20Oh God
04:21Okay
04:22Be nice, be gentle
04:23I will try
04:25With the office stuff sorted
04:27Joanne and Angelo can now try to tick off some jobs at the condo
04:31So she can get it on the market and hopefully get it sold fast
04:36Bye
04:44The Gulf Coast of Florida has a vibrant British community
04:48Attracted by its semi-tropical climate
04:50Like pub owner Liverpool-born Lee
04:53Who moved to the Sunshine State in 2003
04:58You don't have to load this as well and make it go noisy, don't you?
05:02My ex-wife's mum lived here so we come over to visit
05:05And we just fell in love with the place
05:06It's fabulous, I mean what a place to live
05:0990% of the time it's sunny
05:10I just love it here
05:13Seems to be a few people in tonight
05:15Five years later Lee left his IT career to buy this British bar and restaurant
05:20The Horse and Jockey
05:22Making sure the place is clean, the guys behind the bar getting that
05:24You get that rush when everybody turns up at once
05:26We're the official Liverpool supporters club for Pinellas
05:30The staff are great, the customers are great
05:32You know, we've decorated it in such a way that it looks a little like a pub back home
05:37We are regulars at the pub
05:39It's a neighbourhood pub
05:40Where everybody knows everyone
05:42I feel like I'm back in, you know, in God's country in the UK
05:53Every Monday morning Lee has to take stock and work out what's needed for the coming week
05:59Hi son, how are you dad?
06:00What are you up to?
06:01Putting chairs down, finish your mopping
06:04Lee's eldest son Connor also works at the pub
06:07Born in the UK, Connor moved here when he was just one
06:10And now has a Florida-born brother and sister
06:13Connor, he's 23 years old
06:15Then we've got Edie, who also works at the pub
06:18She's a server
06:19And then we have Shay, who doesn't work at the pub yet
06:23But he will do soon
06:24Connor's setting the restaurant up at the moment
06:26Kind of get an hour before any of the customers turn up
06:29And yeah, it's like clean the floor, clean the tables again, reset the bar
06:33Connor doesn't run the pub at the moment
06:35I'd like for him to get there in the next two or three years
06:40Although the bar side does well
06:42It's the restaurant that counts for 65% of the business
06:46So Lee has to make sure that British food is top-notch
06:49To keep the customers coming
06:51To support himself, his new wife Taryn, and his kids
06:54The menu at the pub is just classic British dishes
06:58You know, we have fish and chips, cottage pie
07:01We've got sausage rolls on there
07:02I think the difference between an American bar and an English bar
07:05I'm sure they get things out of a box and throw them in the fryer
07:08We make everything fresh
07:11I'm just doing the list for the wholesalers' pizza boxes
07:14We need mustard, chicken-based limes, pork
07:17The recipes are mine and chefs that I've hired over the years
07:20We kind of, you know, picked each other's brains
07:22We're always trying to improve
07:23Do you need anything other than limes and oranges?
07:25No, all good
07:26See you later, son
07:27Bye, Ned
07:28With eldest son Connor prepping at the pub
07:31Lee's youngest son Shay is helping at the wholesalers
07:35Shay is going to be waiting for me there
07:37Edie's going to drop him off
07:38He normally helps me
07:39And he kind of knows where everything is
07:41We've been there so many times
07:43Tampa is usually one of the sunniest spots in the Sunshine State
07:48But today, the weather has taken a turn
07:52I always describe it as like man's rain
07:54It's like proper rain
07:55You know, in the UK you get, it's like perpetual drizzle
07:59We have that downpour
08:00And then the sun comes out, which is great
08:03I'd rather they get it over with
08:05All right, son
08:06You all right?
08:07Yeah
08:08I can get restaurant supplies delivered by loads of different companies
08:11But I like to go there and put your hands on the fruit and veg
08:14Make sure it's fresh
08:15The Americans love ranch and blue cheese on the wings
08:19After a busy weekend at the pub, there's a lot to restock
08:22Including ingredients for wife Taryn's most loved meal
08:27Taryn's favourite is probably
08:28We have the Thai curry
08:29And we need the coconut milk for that
08:31It's actually getting a lot harder to find English stuff
08:34Black pudding, we have to get that imported
08:36And, you know, certain things you used to be able to get, you just can't get any more
08:39All right, we've got lemonade, both cheeses, beets, mushrooms, silverware, oranges, skirt steak
08:44It's mustard
08:45I'm going to grab some yellow mustard
08:46It's in that yellow metal tub, right?
08:49Yeah, yeah
08:50Family's really important to me
08:51Shea still can't drive
08:52But once you've got a car, you lose them
08:54So I think it's, you know, it's so important to spend that little bit of time that you have
08:58It's like a massive game of Jenga
09:01In reverse
09:03Shopping for the pub over, Lee and Shea have to load up the car and hurry for Lee's next job
09:09Organising a surprise party for wife Taryn tonight
09:31Daytona beach on central florida's atlantic coast is one of the state's most popular and a paradise for play both
09:39in and out of the water
09:41Oh, yeah
09:43Former squatty turned fitness instructor Andreas from Southampton is taking full advantage of its benefits
09:50They're just dumbbells, but like we've got enough kettlebells I think
09:53I have been in Florida for just over four years
09:56I moved here because I met a girl
09:58Unfortunately, um, it was a fail
10:01But by then Andreas had firmly fallen for the sunshine state
10:06It's like a workout before a workout
10:09The outdoor lifestyle is incredible over here and for me
10:13It's just a better place to own a business particularly my business in the outdoor fitness world
10:19Dumbbells, okay, I need to set up some cones as well
10:23Andreas has swapped his army physical training instructor post for a civilian career as a health and fitness coach
10:31How's it going guys?
10:32It's going
10:32You ready for this?
10:34Yes
10:34Good, it's gonna be fun
10:36Today we have boot camp on the beach
10:38This one is just for about 20 to 30 people today
10:40My daughter's doing this one as well, which is amazing
10:4313 year old Jen splits her time between her dad in the US and her mum in the UK
10:49Jen is very smart, funny, really really funny, she has me belly laughing a lot
10:53Jen!
10:55It's really difficult to spend time away from my daughter
10:57I do struggle a lot, but I try to be as present with her as I possibly can
11:01Nine months ago, Jen started at a private online school
11:06Which means she spends two months at a time in Florida with her dad
11:09Then two months in the UK with her mum
11:11My school is very interesting and I enjoy it because I get to experience like the best of both worlds
11:19And you know, when I get like bored of the cold weather, I just come back here, so it's great
11:25Ready, three, two, one, off you go!
11:30Well done guys, awesome
11:31It's the summer holidays and Jen only has a couple of weeks before she heads back to Britain
11:37To make the most of their precious time together he's brought her to work
11:42You should have listened
11:43I want to be more engaging
11:44Oh my god
11:46I don't want to leave my dad, I don't want to leave the nice weather and the beaches
11:49We both love working out and stuff and we love doing sports
11:54Adopt the plank position guys
11:57Jen is like the best part about it as well, like she's my baby girl
12:00And like to give her these experiences of being out here and being on the beach
12:05Yay!
12:09The team had a great time, everyone got a good workout in
12:12Well done guys, good job, well done guys
12:17Boot camp was great, I really enjoyed it
12:19It's nice doing what we do together because I'm the only kid there
12:22And I guess it would just feel special being there
12:24The other boot campers seem to have enjoyed it too
12:27Especially with the addition of a post-workout barbecue
12:32We all encourage each other and Coach Andreas makes it a lot of fun
12:37So we should take him to Pilates next
12:39Oh, I would die Pilates
12:41Yeah, let's do it
12:43It's great to see him encourage her
12:45She, you know, she's a young teenager
12:47And we all just kind of seem to get along
12:50Running your own business as a single parent does have its challenges
12:55It's difficult when sometimes you're trying to work
12:57Especially as an entrepreneur
12:58There's definitely a lot of parent guilt when you can't always give her all the time
13:02So with limited time left before Jen returns to the UK
13:06Andreas' next task is planning a special treat
13:09To show her more of Florida's fun side
13:13We're gonna go to Universal which we're really excited about
13:15We're looking forward to spending some time away
13:17Get away from work and have a great time down there
13:29On the other coast of Florida you'll find Clearwater
13:33Where Joanne from Hull and her son Angelo have arrived at the two-bed condo
13:37She's flipping in the hope of making a decent profit
13:43All right, let's do this
13:4618-year-old Angelo is hoping to follow in his mom's footsteps
13:50I'm looking to learn a lot from my mom about what she does
13:53And just how she rebuilds things makes it all look better
13:56Because you know I could be doing this someday in the future
13:58I'm just gonna go and get changed real quick
14:00And then I think I want to get those LEDs replaced out
14:04Okay
14:05Angelo is definitely my little entrepreneur
14:08So for him I think you know seeing how successful I've been
14:11And everything that I'm doing
14:12I think that kind of sparked his interest in wanting to come and work with me
14:17Joanne bought the condo six months ago for $240,000
14:21This will be her fifth doer-upper
14:23And once the renovation's finished
14:25She's hoping to put it on the market for over 300 grand
14:28I want to show you what it looked like
14:31So you can really appreciate and see how much work that we've done on it so far
14:37Oh, it was a really old house
14:38Right? Look at the kitchen
14:41No, the bathroom was the worst
14:44Yeah, that is insane
14:46Isn't that crazy?
14:47I want to kind of teach Angelo some of the roles
14:50Some of the things that we do
14:51So I'm gonna be putting up some light fixtures
14:54All right, let's get these lights figured out
14:57I need you to go ahead and cut the power for me
14:59Because we don't want to get electrocuted today
15:02Obviously the more we do ourselves
15:04The more profit we're going to make
15:06The renovation didn't get off to the smoothest start
15:10With storm damage and contractor issues delaying her schedule
15:13I'm desperate to get it finished and get it listed
15:17So I can get this one off my books
15:19All right, grab one of the LEDs for me
15:22All right, hopefully I've got the right one
15:24Do you have wire strippers?
15:26Let me have a look in the toolbox
15:28Sorry, Mum, I got it
15:31Working upstairs is fellow Brit Billy
15:34Who's come to help Joanne out with the renovation
15:39So I managed to get the shiver head changed to the...
15:43Oh, OK
15:44The rain one
15:45The first flip that Billy and I did was for my mum's condo
15:49And we just did everything ourselves
15:51It was really good to get us started
15:53Get our feet wet
15:54Learned from our mistakes
15:56Well, that looks good, Billy
15:57Yeah, great
15:58I like it, thank you
16:00I'm actually not a handyman
16:01I'm an emergency room nurse
16:04I have absolutely no training in being a handyman
16:07But it's something I really enjoy doing
16:10But downstairs, Angelo has hit a snag
16:14Mum, you got the wrong fittings for this light
16:16It's not going to screw in, right?
16:19Why? What's wrong?
16:21OK
16:21Oh, shoot, it's clipping, not screwing, right?
16:26Yeah, I don't know if I know how it is
16:28Uh-oh
16:29So these are the old fixtures with the clips
16:32I'm either going to have to find some of the clips that are going to be able to fit and
16:36slot in
16:37Or I'm going to have to change the LEDs and try and find them with the clips fitted
16:42So I don't know
16:42I have to have a look and see what I can figure out
16:45Even minor issues can add to her costs
16:48And six months into what should have been a quick renovation
16:51Joanne needs the rest of the build to go to plan
16:54Or the profit she's hoping to make could start slipping away
16:58Oh, God
17:07In the Sunshine State's waterfront community of South Pasadena
17:11Pub owner Lee from Liverpool is back home with Taryn, his wife of four years
17:16What are you going to do with Shea tonight? Is he going to be in the pub?
17:19Yeah, he'll have to be, won't he?
17:21Taryn also works in the drinks trade
17:23Selling wine for Jon Bon Jovi's Rosé brand
17:26And today, it's a very special day for her
17:30It's Taryn's birthday
17:31My favourite thing about Taryn is she is, without doubt, the easiest going person I think I've ever met
17:38Nothing phases her, which is a good job, to be honest
17:43Lee and Taryn began the celebrations early with some festivities and gifts over the weekend
17:47But he saved the last one for today
17:51Happy birthday
17:52Oh, it's so pretty
17:53Thank you
17:55You're welcome
17:56It's beautiful
17:57It's a beautiful carry
18:00Taryn thinks she's having a low-key evening tonight
18:03My sister and a friend are taking me to a nice place on the beach just for a drink
18:08Lee's not invited
18:10I don't mind, that means I don't have to pay
18:14All right, I'm going to the gym, I know you're going to work
18:17All right
18:17See you later
18:17Happy birthday, love you
18:19See you later
18:20Have a good day
18:21What Taryn doesn't realise is bigger plans are afoot at Lee's British pub, The Horse and Jockey
18:28Tonight we're doing a surprise birthday celebration for Taryn
18:32It starts at 6pm, so I've invited everybody she knows
18:36And hopefully it'll be a success
18:40Lee's juggling running the pub and organising the party
18:44So eldest son Connor is helping out, as well as planning his own special treat
18:48What are you going to do for Taryn tonight?
18:51I'm going to make Taryn a favourite cosmo
18:53Two ounces of vodka
18:55One ounce orange liqueur
19:00Three quarters of an ounce of lemon
19:02And then a half ounce of simple syrup, which is just equal parts sugar to water
19:08Three quarters of an ounce of cranberry juice
19:10And then you're done
19:11Connor is widely regarded in the pub as the best mixologist
19:17It actually gets reflected in the sales
19:19A beer is like $7
19:20And then you're selling cocktails for $13, $14, $15
19:25Tonight Taryn's signature cocktail will be on the menu
19:28So Connor will be busy putting his mixology skills to good use
19:32It tastes good
19:33I think Taryn will love that actually
19:36It's like nice and citrusy
19:37And she likes that
19:38She always has like a lime juice in whatever it is she's drinking
19:43Back at Lee's house, daughter Edie is making her own surprise for stepmum Taryn
19:48A classic British birthday cake, despite her being American
19:53Oh wait, I need to preheat the oven
19:56I'm making a Victoria's sponge cake
19:59It's a British one, I had to do the like conversions to cups and everything
20:04Taryn is lovely
20:06I love Taryn
20:07She's really like made a change in my dad's life, you can tell
20:11Edie's hoping her Victoria's sponge will be the icing on the cake of Taryn's birthday surprises
20:17But it's not quite going to plan
20:19This already isn't looking that promising
20:23I'm gonna mix it again
20:24It's kind of lumpy
20:28When my dad found out that I was like going away for college
20:31The first thing he got me was a bunch of stuff for cooking and baking
20:36This is looking more promising as the minute goes on
20:40The perfect chance to channel her British roots with a good old cuppa
20:45I love tea
20:48I know in England they drink tea all the time, that's not really a thing here
20:53When I was younger I used to say water and not water
20:57And everyone was like what the hell are you saying?
21:00As Edie has the cake under control, Lee has an hour and a half to finish the rest of the
21:05prep
21:05Before the party starts
21:07We're gonna have to go now and get some balloons for this birthday extravaganza
21:13The people who are in town have called and hopefully they'll show up
21:18Taryn, she's great, they all mean a hell of a lot to her
21:22Along with the balloons, Lee's asked local florist, pub regular and friend Lucy to make up a special bouquet
21:30They are wonderful
21:32Do you love them? I love them, thank you so much
21:34Thank you so much
21:35I knew she'd love something clean and classic
21:37I hope she loves it
21:39Yeah, I'm sure she will
21:42While Lee's been sorting gifts, son Connor's been making sure the pub is ready for the party
21:48Just clean all the tables, getting ready for Taryn's birthday
21:51And then, yeah, get her cocktails ready and she'll be good to go
21:56Taryn is the best step-mom
21:58She's great to my dad, great to Edie and Shay
22:01Super friendly, super nice
22:04Expecting 30 to 40 people tonight for Taryn's birthday
22:07So we've got 20 minutes, 30 minutes to get all ready
22:10Connor, Edie, Shay and Lee have all gone to a lot of effort to make tonight's special for Taryn
22:16With guests now arriving, all they need is for the lady herself to arrive
22:21And to like the surprise
22:37On the other side of the Sunshine State in New Smyrna Beach
22:41Fitness coach Andreas from Southampton is getting ready to take daughter Jen on a special trip
22:47Before she heads back to the UK next week
22:51I've got magnesium to make sure that I can sleep really well
22:54You're like, you're the queen of ice masks, but where's yours?
22:57Wow
22:57I'll show you all my masks
22:58Yours is way, way prettier than mine
23:00I know, you should get one like that
23:02Exactly
23:03As it's Jen's summer holidays
23:05Oh, look, look good
23:06Andreas is putting building his business on hold
23:09To enjoy some family time at one of the most visited theme parks in the world
23:14I feel like you packed really well today, Jen, well done
23:16Hope you're very organised
23:18As a former squaddie, even the packing involves military precision
23:22Always got to be practical
23:23I'm ex-military
23:24You need to make sure you pack your stuff properly
23:26You should get better style
23:27You should like maybe add a bit more a few like nicer clothes
23:31You just look basically the same things
23:33You just wear a t-shirt and shorts like
23:35I live in Florida
23:35White, beige
23:37What do you want me to wear a suit?
23:38Black
23:38That's what he wears
23:39Do you want me to wear a tuxedo?
23:41There's one other important woman in Andreas' life
23:44Who's joining him on the trip
23:47Hello
23:47Hey, how's it going?
23:48Good, how are you?
23:50Good to see you
23:50Andreas' mum, Helen
23:51Oh, are you all packed?
23:53Yes
23:53Let's go
23:55What some quiche
23:57Helen moved to the States ten years ago
23:59And lives just over half an hour away
24:01Mum was living in Arizona for about eight years
24:04And as soon as I moved to Florida
24:06She came out to be by my side
24:08And it makes Florida feel more like home
24:12Want a tea?
24:13Yeah, why not?
24:15You never stop worrying about your kids
24:16Ever
24:17Every time I come up, I bring food
24:19I even clean the house
24:24Jen
24:25You good?
24:27Yeah
24:27Ready for a universal?
24:28I am
24:30Despite the British-looking weather
24:32Don't love you
24:33No
24:34They're off for a last-minute family treat
24:37Before Jen has to go back to the UK
24:39Did you bring the sun cream off?
24:41I did
24:41Check that off
24:43And when they do get to Orlando
24:45Thankfully the sun is shining
24:50Let's take some photos
24:51Get closer
24:55I feel like I've actually gained a stronger relationship
24:59With my parents
25:00When I'm not with them
25:01We can make the most of time with each other when we have it
25:07Jennifer is just amazing
25:09Like I love her so much
25:11I just love to hug her
25:14I'm pumped for this
25:15Are you excited?
25:16What are you going to see?
25:17Are you going to see it at the front or the back?
25:19I struggled for the first year after leaving the army
25:22But I just started focusing on what was important
25:25Which was building a better life for me and my kid
25:35As avid Harry Potter fans they're heading first to familiar territory
25:40This is Hagrid's motorbike
25:42Isn't Hagrid your favourite character?
25:44Yes
25:45Even mum Helen's braving this one
25:47I think mum's going to scream the loudest
25:52It should be really fun
25:53Yeah it's going to be a lot of fun
25:54I think it will be a good one to start on
25:58The motorbikes will begin moving immediately
26:01Clear the way
26:03No turning back now Helen
26:16Oh my god that's so fun
26:21Oh man that was so much fun
26:22I know that was really fun
26:24That was scary
26:24Yeah
26:24I don't think I was that scared
26:26It was fast and it was crazy
26:29And we got dropped down
26:31My Nana's a sweet person
26:33And we love going out together
26:34And I think we have a good laugh
26:36Go and look at photos shall we
26:38Nice
26:39Hey
26:40Come on
26:43Oh my god
26:44You look like you're hanging on for dear life
26:49Next up it's a reminder of home
26:52Well Harry Potter's home
26:54As they head to Diagon Alley
26:55The famous cobbled shopping street
26:57This is amazing
27:00Hooray!
27:06I guess we're going to be watching ones
27:07Whoever casts the most spells is the winner
27:09Me and Jen are going to win this
27:11I miss Jennifer every day when she's not here
27:14We just completely love having her around
27:17He knows we're going to beat him anyway
27:19No chance
27:20Yeah he won a bit
27:21No chance
27:22We've got a belt
27:22Yes
27:22We've always done it tonight
27:24Alright we can do this
27:25I beat my dad in Uno a lot
27:27Like for almost every time
27:28Because I'm just better
27:29He says it's like
27:30Oh it's luck
27:31And I'm like
27:32No it's skill
27:33It seems like the whole family love a competition
27:36But these aren't just any old ones
27:38The handle will vibrate
27:39And the tip will light up
27:40When you do your magic correctly
27:41Okay
27:42I think I like this
27:43You like that wand?
27:44I like the colour of it as well
27:45A really good wand
27:46Yeah
27:48To cast a spell
27:49They need to use their wands
27:50At one of 30 special locations around the park
27:55They basically call me Andreas Harry Potter bird
27:58I think I've watched the Harry Potter movies
28:00More times than anybody else here
28:03So like
28:03I think I have a pretty good chance of winning
28:06Winning
28:07Well they wanted me to win the most
28:08That's why they gave me the map
28:09Oh I have one
28:11Oh you do have a map
28:12Damn
28:13So with maps at the ready
28:15It's time to find out who's paying for dinner
28:18I'm ready to beat you guys
28:27100 miles away in the coastal city of Clearwater
28:30Joanne from Hull
28:32Son Angelo
28:33And handyman Billy
28:34Are at her condo
28:36Trying to tick some jobs off the list
28:38So she can get it on the market
28:39And hopefully make a profit
28:43Actual trim for the shower is gone
28:45So we have to find out what kind of trim it is
28:47Yeah
28:48Let's see
28:48Let's take a look
28:49Let me see what we've got
28:53With Billy on hand to help
28:55And the light fittings not yet ready to install
28:57Son Angelo's accepted an offer he can't refuse
29:02Okay my girlfriend's here
29:04I gotta go
29:04Alright well I ordered the clips for the light
29:07So instead of redoing the whole thing
29:09We should be able to put them up with the clips
29:11Sounds good
29:12Okay
29:12Alright buddy
29:13Alright
29:17Billy's now got the job of helping with the next task on Joanne's list
29:21We need to figure out the vanities
29:23Okay
29:23Because I am a little bit concerned about the downstairs bathroom
29:27Sure
29:27Alright
29:29Joanne measured the two bathrooms
29:31And ordered bespoke vanity units for them online
29:34Let's get it out the boxes
29:38So she needs to make sure they fit before a contractor adds the custom made granite tops
29:45So I think that is going to have to come off
29:50Erm
29:51I also think
29:52Can it go off?
29:53What is it?
29:54The base part?
29:55Oh shh
29:56It's this isn't it?
29:57Yeah it's this trim
29:58It's going to have to come off
29:59I enjoy working this Joanne because we have so much fun
30:03We work through the mistakes and we work through learning together
30:09We've measured the space correctly but unfortunately it's so tight in here
30:14That the erm this part of the door frame on this side is preventing us from being able to slide
30:23in
30:23I didn't even think about that
30:23Projects about half an inch this way
30:25Yeah
30:26So this hole would have to come off
30:29Okay you go that way and I'll be the gentleman to take the weight at the bottom
30:33Now they're trying the unit upstairs to see if they can salvage at least one of them
30:40Alright well this one already looks like it's going to fit
30:43Yes
30:44But Joanne spotted another issue
30:47This unit is smaller than the original one so there's now a gap in the floor tiles
30:52If we're going to take this strip of tile out and retile it under there
30:55We can go with the same size but we're not going to find a match
30:59Erm so we're going to
31:00It's going to be incredibly difficult to find a match because this house is subtle
31:04There might be a box of spare tile left over in the shed
31:08We have this idea of the plans and the goals of what's going to happen that day
31:12And nine times out of ten
31:14Never goes according to plan
31:18There's boxes down here
31:19Okay
31:21Hallelujah
31:22Perfect
31:23Oh my goodness
31:24So we'll just tile that
31:25We'll just tile it
31:26Before they can fit the new tiles in unit they need to replace the skirting boards
31:31So Joanne gets to work stripping the old ones out
31:35God these things are so old
31:37This is the glamorous side of living in Florida
31:42I actually really like doing this side of things
31:45It's a learning process
31:47A couple of flips down the line
31:49It could just be Billy and I just doing everything ourselves
31:52But when you're not a skilled trades person the risk of getting things wrong increases
31:57I'm really hoping we can get these tiles out in one piece
32:00That's my biggest worry right now
32:01Get these tiles out in one piece and then be able to have a clean area here, tile it, make
32:08it level
32:09Any more mishaps could prove costly to her profit
32:12So Joanne needs the rest of the renovation to go without a hitch
32:18God if I crack one of these tiles I'm going to cry
32:29In South Pasadena pub owner Lee from Liverpool is busy juggling his job
32:34And welcoming guests who come to a surprise party he's organised for wife Tara
32:41David
32:41Oh my golly what's going on
32:44Why wouldn't you celebrate your wife's birthday in a big way, eh?
32:47I just love being around the family
32:50How are you?
32:51I'm great, how are you doing?
32:52I didn't see you sleeping
32:53Taryn's sister Rhonda has the job of keeping her occupied until 6pm
32:58But now they're late and Lee can't get hold of them
33:01Kim where are they?
33:02Sorry
33:03Where are they?
33:05I'm over the bridge
33:07Luckily Rhonda's daughter-in-law Kim is on the case
33:10They're out to dinner right now so I'm tracking her
33:12That's me
33:13That's her driving
33:15They're on the move
33:16Lee needs to make sure everyone else knows what to do
33:20Hey guys, so if I could just have your attention for a second
33:23It's my wife's birthday and we're doing a little surprise birthday for her
33:26Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
33:28She's going to be walking through the door in about 30 seconds
33:33So we're just doing this
33:34Surprise
33:35After putting in a lot of time and effort
33:37Oh, here we go
33:39She's walking up
33:40Lee's gathered around 30 of Taryn's nearest and dearest to help her celebrate
33:45Surprise!
34:04What's going on?
34:05Did you have any idea?
34:07I think that went as well as could be expected
34:10Those are gorgeous!
34:13Completely blown away
34:15Very loved and this is so nice
34:19Lee's son Connor also has his own surprise
34:22Connor's arranged a special cocktail for her
34:25Taryn!
34:26Oh God
34:28Taryn's happy birthday Cosmo
34:30I love it
34:31In the kitchen, Adi's finishing off her treat for Taryn
34:35Alright
34:36We're going to light it
34:38And then we're going to bring it to Taryn
34:40I need all of you to sing with me
34:42After weeks of planning and the whole family chipping in
34:46Edi's cake is the cherry on top of a whole evening of surprises
34:52Happy birthday dear Taryn
34:58Happy birthday to you
35:06The kids did so well
35:08Connor's excelled behind the bar
35:09Edi's fantastic
35:10And she's so proud of that cake she made
35:13And Shay always mucks in
35:14So Edi made that
35:16You are so talented
35:18Thank you
35:20It was a hint
35:22They like it
35:25Actually
35:26It's really good
35:27Okay yay
35:28Paula Hollywood
35:29I would love to be on the Great British Baking Show
35:32So you know where I am
35:349.87
35:36Really I would have settled for a 7
35:38Anything above a 5
35:40Feel very loved
35:42And it was a massive surprise
35:44I'm very lucky
35:45They're great kids
35:47I thought today went well
35:50I'm really pleased with the way that went
35:52Taryn had no idea
35:53So that's fantastic
35:55How are you?
35:56How are you?
35:57Good how are you?
35:58Good thank you
35:59Oh my
35:59I'm like blown away
36:02After pulling off a successful soiree
36:05With Taryn, her guests and the pub customers all happy
36:08Lee can finally relax
36:11So now we're going to probably go and have a few beers and celebrate Taryn's birthday
36:16A fizzing end to a great surprise
36:20Glad to see you again
36:22Cheers
36:34In the city of Clearwater
36:36Realtor Joanne from Hull
36:38And handyman Billy have finished fitting the lights and bathroom units at the condo
36:43I like it
36:44It will work
36:45It will work
36:47It's two months later and she's back with mum Jeannie
36:51I have a couple of bits of stuff for staging
36:53It was just looking a bit bare
36:55She's hoping to make a decent profit on it
36:59Well you have to open the door anyway
37:01The goal for today is have mum come and take a look at it with me
37:05And then go over pricing so we can get it listed and done today
37:09Oh I can't wait
37:10Are you ready?
37:11Oh my god
37:11Can't wait to see
37:14Oh
37:18When did you get that talented?
37:23Jeannie may now be Joanne's assistant at her real estate agency
37:27But she used to be a real estate agent herself
37:29So Joanne wants her opinion on what this fully renovated property could sell for
37:35Are you ready for the kitchen?
37:39Holy moly
37:43With lots of challenges along the way
37:45Joanne and her friends and family have transformed the place from top to bottom
37:51Oh my word Joanne
37:53This is
37:54What a difference
37:56I saw it when she first bought it and it was a mess
38:02I am blown away at the effort they're putting
38:05It looks fantastic
38:08After a mishap measuring for the bathroom vanity unit downstairs
38:12Joanne sourced a new one which fits perfectly
38:16Look at this
38:17Oh wow
38:19Wow
38:21Joanne I'm just
38:23Thank you mummy
38:26Oh yeah everything works don't worry
38:28Just making sure
38:29Joanne is such a hard worker
38:31She puts a hundred and ten hundred and twenty percent effort into all she does
38:37Well done
38:39Well done
38:39I'm so proud
38:42And she and Billy have worked wonders finishing the upstairs bathroom too
38:46Oh yes
38:48Yeah what a difference
38:49Yeah
38:51Oh gosh
38:52I can't believe the difference like you would never need to know that this was
38:55I know
38:56Before Joanne puts the property in the market she wants to add the final finishing touches
39:01One of the most important things for the listing is to make sure that it's staged correctly and the pictures
39:08are done correctly because obviously that's what's going to draw people in
39:12Where do you want this to go?
39:14Like right here maybe?
39:15This one?
39:16Yeah
39:16Yeah
39:16Yeah
39:16Yeah
39:18After a last bit of tidying
39:21Jeannie
39:21Come on
39:22Just a little bit here
39:26It's time to work out the final figures
39:28The initial investment was $240
39:31I've probably spent about $20,000
39:33To try and make as much profit as possible she's aiming high
39:38I think I'm going to start $339,990
39:41Let me see how these pictures came out
39:43Oh that looks really good
39:46Right go ahead
39:46So
39:47Ooh
39:47Here we go
39:49Let's make it live
39:51And
39:53We're active
39:55I'm really excited that we've managed to get it listed on the market
40:00It's a bit quiet at the moment but I've got every confidence because this is such a beautiful condo
40:12I know
40:13I know I'm just like after all these months of doing this
40:16I know
40:17I know
40:17I know
40:18It's on the market now
40:20I know
40:20Let's get it sold
40:21Yeah
40:22It's a lot more challenging to live here than people realise
40:24I work extremely hard, extremely long hours but obviously the rewards pay off
40:30Despite initial delays to the build, hitches learning on the job and a difficult property market
40:36Less than three months later, Joanne sold the house for $280,000, a 20 grand profit
40:44And she's already moved on to her next doer-upper in nearby St. Pete Beach
40:50I just spoke to Chrissy, everything's with the underwriters and everything looks good
40:54Awesome
40:58There is absolutely no way I would have this kind of life back home
41:03The money that I'm making, the freedom, the travel, the living in paradise
41:09I'm always going to be very, very thankful that I'm here
41:18In Orlando, former army physical instructor turned fitness coach Andreas
41:24Is treating his daughter Jen and his mum Helen to a memorable family trip
41:29Before Jen goes back to England for a few months
41:33This is the map guys that we're going to try and find some magic and cast some spells
41:39The trip was really important because I feel like it just allows me to be present with her
41:42This is the entrance to Hogsmeade
41:44So then you got one, two, three spots where we can cast some spells
41:48Okay
41:49Just to spend that time with her is precious right now because she's growing up quick
41:54Ready guys?
41:54Yeah
41:55I have a great relationship with my dad
41:57I think we're quite close and I really appreciate everything he's done for me
42:01To make it more fun, self-proclaimed Andreas Harry Potter Burn
42:05Has proposed a spell off to see who's paying for dinner
42:08First up, Jen
42:13We've got some fireworks going off
42:15Smashed it
42:18Each magical spot has its own special effects
42:21But it turns out Andreas isn't a natural wizard after all
42:27Come on man
42:29I guess I'm not doing this properly
42:31I'm not wizardy enough
42:33What's going on?
42:34You want to go mum?
42:39There you go
42:42Mum smashes it too
42:43Could it be second time lucky for Andreas?
42:47Incindio
42:50I did it
42:50No, that was me
42:51What?
42:52No way
42:53Did you actually?
42:55Yeah, I felt it like
42:55You felt the vibration unbelievable
42:57She's obviously way better at being a wizard than me
42:59She can take this crown right now but
43:02The war isn't over
43:04Dinner is on Andreas then
43:06And what better than a good old British classic?
43:12The biggest meal I miss about being in the States is like fish and chips
43:16Because you just generally can't get a good one
43:18I know, yeah
43:18We'll put it to the test, shall we?
43:20Yeah, exactly
43:21Do you fish and chips?
43:22Yeah, thank you so much
43:23It looks really good
43:25I can't wait to have it
43:27When I go back, I'm definitely going to miss my dad
43:29Because we've been with each other like 24-7 basically
43:36Chippy chips
43:37Good chippy chips
43:39But I think it's going to be even more special when I see him again
43:44Right, let's do it
43:44That was delicious
43:45Wow, that was really good
43:46It was really good
43:49With their energy levels restored
43:51Jen and Andreas now want to tackle the park's biggest ride
43:55The Velocicoaster
43:58But Mum Helen's decided to give it a miss
44:01You can hear the screams from him
44:03Oh my God
44:04You're missing out, Mum
44:05I'm sure I am
44:06It's going to be the last time you ever get to do this
44:08That's okay, I'm good with that as well
44:13I am extremely proud of Andreas
44:15What he's achieved
44:16And I think it's all down to the seven years of military that he had
44:19When he came out, he knew exactly what he wanted to do
44:22And he's achieved it
44:23See you later, Mum
44:24Have a good one, wish us luck
44:28It's Florida's tallest and fastest rollercoaster
44:31With a drop of 140 feet
44:35Reaching speeds of up to 70 miles an hour
44:39So Andreas and Jen will need to hang onto their hats
44:42And stomachs after that big dinner
44:45Yay! You made it!
44:48Yay!
44:50You did it!
44:52Fantastic!
44:53That was amazing
44:53I'm glad you did it
44:55Yeah, definitely
44:56I'm so glad
44:57You're fearless now
44:58I'm sure I was that brave
45:01After a lovely day creating lots more happy family memories
45:05It's been the best time, like I really, really enjoyed today
45:08I enjoyed just being with everyone so much
45:11They're going out with a bang at the final event of the day
45:16Cinesational, a symphonic spectacular
45:22Ghostbusters was amazing, that was a throwback and so that was cool
45:24Good to see that
45:25I like the minions one
45:29It's been the beautiful day so we've got lots of memories to take home with us
45:32We're going to go home, shower up and get into beds and we're going to sleep well tonight
45:38A fantastic end to a memorable family trip
45:42Love you guys very, very much
45:43What an experience, right?
