Matt Baker: Christmas Travels with Mum & Dad

Matt arranges a surprise carriage ride for his parents to arrive in style at Raby Castle, before they explore its rich history and get stuck into some Christmas tree decorating and mince pie making

Matt Baker takes his parents on a glorious Christmas trip to the Lake District, where they visit Beatrix Potter's hilltop home and try festive felting using local Herdwick wool. Mike gets an early present when he visits the Ruskin Museum to see a display dedicated to his hero - speed record holder Donald Campbell.

Matt takes his mum Janice and dad Mike on a trip to the historic city of York as it prepares for Christmas. They take in the sights, hearing choristers rehearsing in a candlelit church, tasting festive brews at the famous Bettys Café Tea Rooms and helping to decorate the city ready for the big switch on of the lights.
