The Haddock family from Co. Limerick are going on a holiday with a difference.
Usually the parents Aiden and Josie are in charge of booking and organising the family holidays. But, for a new reality TV series, ‘Whose Holiday Is It Anyway?’ the kids are in control.
They will book the destination, they’ll be in charge of the family spending money and they’ll choose the activities for all the family. They’ll also be packing their parents’ suitcases.
Josie and Aiden will only discover their destination at the airport. They won’t know what’s in their suitcases until the unpack them when they arrive.
They have to hand over all the holiday cash to daughter Katie who’ll have complete control of the family budget for the week. And they have no idea what activities the kids have booked. They’ll be at the mercy of their kids for the duration of the holiday.
Cian (16), Katie (14), Tyrone (12) Ava (9) are bringing their parents to Malta for a holiday they’ll never forget.
Along the way Josie will be challenged to face her fear of water as the youngsters book a jet ski adventure which lands her in deep water.
Aiden will try to interest the family in a rabbit stew. Josie will be pushed to her limits at the water park. And the parents will have the opportunity to either take control of the holiday or let the kids finish what they have started.
The first episode, featuring the Limerick family, will air this Sunday, November 16 on RTE 1 at 8.30pm.
