Episode 4

This week the friends set sail for France on Reuben's first ever holiday abroad. Tommy gets hold of a GoPro to capture the milestone adventure as the three mates start their long drive from the Dales to Dover in Reuben's second-hand Land Rover. Reaching the south coast, the white cliffs are just the first of many new sights for the teenagers in the days to come.

Leaving the ferry behind in Calais, the friends' road trip will take them through Northern France where they're heading to Normandy and the Loire Valley.

During their first morning Reuben tries to break the language barrier and secure lunch for his friends, with the help of a French phrase book and a lot of support from Sarah.

Reuben, Tommy and Sarah all love rural life back home in the hills, so head to a vineyard to see how the French countryside compares. At Chateau des Chaintres in Saumur, vineyard owner Gael de Tigny invites them to help with the grape harvest on his family's 44-acre estate. And as it's been a dream of Reuben's to drive a skinny French vintage tractor, Gael allows Reuben to tow a fully loaded trailer with 1000 bottles worth of grapes on board.

Sarah and Tommy convince Reuben to camp for a night, but their site is next to a field where a combine harvester works through the night. The trio have a sleepless night and despite the warming hot chocolate shared round the camping stove, Reuben's reservations about camping may have been founded.

The following morning Tommy gets to fulfil a dream to drive on the famous Le Mans racetrack, albeit in a go-kart, and manages to claim poll position.

After visiting a tank museum and learning the first war machines were similar in design to Reuben's tractors at home, he's humbled to discover a war hero in the family when the friends visit a WW1 memorial site near the Somme.
