The Highlands

The second visit of the competition is to The Highlands Pub in Blackpool, where managers Mike Hayes and Neal Widdowson are all about value for money. In the rooms, Sean and Kathryn are horrified by what they find while Marianne and Deina think it needs the female touch. In the afternoon the group head to the amusement arcades, to compete in a basketball challenge where the quiet hosts, Mike and Neal, come out of their shells. But divisions surface at dinner when Marianne reveals some north/south snobbery. Next morning the breakfast goes down a storm with Denise and Jackie, and bags the hosts some high scores. But a raft of low marks for facilities strikes Neal as nit-picking, and leaves them both feeling gutted.
