Further details
In Yorkshire, Ricky joins Ralf for a boxing and fitness session at a men's community health group in Leeds - the results aren't pretty. But it does work up a monster appetite - if only Ricky can satisfy his with a food he's always found too spicy... The pair find out at an award-winning restaurant in official UK curry capital Bradford.
Ralf fulfils a childhood dream when he gets to stoke the engine on a traditional steam train on the historical Keighley & Worth Valley line, made famous in the film The Railway Children - while Ricky opts for the more sedate option: sitting with the passengers...
And after getting stuck in as willing Oompa Loompas in a real-life York artisan chocolate works, the pair end their trip in beautiful east-coast town Whitby - a place linked inextricably with the Dracula story. Good timing, as it's Halloween - but will they be too scared to take a walking tour of its spookiest bits with sinister guide 'Dr Crank'...?
