In this episode's journey through time Len Goodman takes world-famous birdwatcher and comedian Bill Oddie back to the wilds of Dungeness in Kent to reminisce about the holiday he took back in 1957 when he was a teenager.

Len surprises Bill by transporting him to Dungeness aboard the Romney, Dymchurch and Hythe Railway - the smallest public railway in the world. Bill would have taken two trains from his home near Birmingham to this part of Kent. Once they arrive, Len takes Bill to the top of lighthouse to see how much the area has changed. Despite now being home to two huge nuclear reactors, the actual landscape hasn't changed much and the memories come flooding back. Bill can't resist taking out his binoculars and doing a bit of birdwatching too!

When he was here as a teenager Bill stayed at the bird observatory cottages which still remain today. Len arranges to see the room he stayed in and even surprises Bill by showing him the journal a 15-year-old Bill wrote in when he was down all those years ago. Bill is amazed to reread his teenage observations, and jokes that maybe his comedy writing started on that very holiday.

To add to the nostalgia-fest Len and Bill cook up beans on toast - the meal every 15-year-old cooks for themselves and Bill's staple diet on his holidays, but the most magical part of the day for our superstar twitcher is when they come face to face with baby sparrows that are being 'ringed' by the RSPB and Bill gets to hold one in his hand.

Along the way they talk about his life as a youngster and how he got to work with John Cleese and the Goodies, as well as finding out how his childhood passion for birdwatching became an important part of his career later on in life on programmes such as Springwatch and Bill Oddie Goes Wild.
