When Caravan Holidays Go Horribly Wrong
As more of us seek out affordable holiday options, the popularity of Caravan Holidays is soaring with the industry worth a staggering two billion pounds a year. You get all the comforts of home, along with the freedom to explore whenever and wherever. But sometimes there can be a hitch in your plans as exemplified in this 90-minute special narrated by Helen Lederer.
Highlights include the driver who can't believe her eyes when her holiday flies by for all the wrong reasons: her caravan has become detached from her car and is hurtling past her at breakneck speed on the motorway, with terrifying consequences.
A holiday proves too much to bear as a grizzly makes itself at home in a Canadian caravan park, pilfering the food and giving holidaymakers the fright of their lives. And there's a dark cloud hanging over a holiday in Cornwall as bad weather sets in leaving a family no choice but to wade through a knee-deep torrent of rain to get to their static. Before long, they call time on the break, which is a washout.
Other stories, re-lived by holidaymakers who really should have been given a wider berth, include a mouse invasion in a caravan that resembles something from a disaster movie, a Vegas driver who takes the gamble of his life getting into an underground carpark and the proud owners of a new caravan, whose dream soon ends in a nightmare as the shiny new vehicle is dramatically rear-ended on the way home from the showroom. The damage is so bad, the holiday home is deemed by insurers to be a write-off.
Contributors include racing driver Paul O'Neill, adventurer and presenter Rob Bell and journalist and broadcaster Kylie Pentelow.
