Matt Baker: Travels with Mum & Dad

Matt, Janice, Mike and Archie head to the Northumberland County Show, north-east England's biggest annual rural festival, this time accompanied by Archie the puppy. They get to a behind-the-scenes peek at what it takes to put on such a massive event, help prep some of the award-winning animals, and enter Archie into two of the categories.

Matt, Mike and Janice head down by the riverside in Durham for one of the biggest events in this historic city's social calendar - the 191st Durham Regatta. Elsewhere, the family explore some of the wonders of the regatta's historic surroundings, discover the secrets of Durham Castle, and get a lift in a rare vintage car to see the exotic wonders housed in the wonderful Durham University Botanic Garden.

Matt, Janice and Mike head to historic Cragside house and gardens in Northumberland, the original smart home powered by ingenious 19th-century hydro-electric inventions. Janice and Matt get to grips with a Victorian dishwasher, while at Cragend Farm, the Bakers discover an agricultural machine which inspired the design of London's Tower Bridge.

The Bakers visit England's original seaside resort, Scarborough - a favourite of Mike's from his youth and a place filled with fun, sun and history. The family pitch up at Scarborough Spa and are wowed by its continental-style Sun Court, the home of Britain's last professional seaside orchestra. Down on the promenade, they head to the Harbour Bar, Yorkshire's oldest ice cream shop.
