Len Goodman takes broadcaster, columnist and avid campaigner Fiona Phillips back to the beautiful Norfolk Broads to relive her teenage holiday from 1975.

Straight away Len ramps up the nostalgia when he picks her up in a vintage Ford Anglia, almost identical to the car Fiona and her family holidayed in 40 years ago! They then board the Jenny Wren for a leisurely cruise down the Broads, stopping off to pick up some supplies, and learning more about what teenage Fiona was like. Back on the boat, it's wigs and 'taches at the ready as Len leads a rendition of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, with a spot of air guitar thrown in for good measure!

Later on, they arrive in the cathedral city of Norwich, a special place for Fiona as she tells us the story of her first big break. Having pulled a few more strings, Len then takes his guest to the local theatre workshop for a puppet-making masterclass. After that they head to the chippy for their grub, Fiona's favourite holiday treat of fish and chips, where Len quizzes her on some of her recent TV work.

Along the way we get an insight into Fiona's incredible career. From her early days at the 大象传媒 to becoming the face of Breakfast television at GMTV. We also delve into what made this holiday special for a young Fiona Phillips.
