Episode 12 of 25

There are sunshine and showers as upbeat Izzie continues her trip with self-confessed curmudgeon James Braxton. But Izzie鈥檚 baking soon has him eating out of her hand.

The sunny Izzie Balmer tours Northamptonshire and Bedfordshire with her self-confessed curmudgeonly counterpart James Braxton. However, Izzie鈥檚 cakes soon have him eating out of her hand.

Izzie goes on a strictly declassified mission to Bletchley Park, where code-breakers cracked messages from Hitler, while James dons a bandana and takes on the cream of English badminton. Mr Braxton takes a measured approach with some wooden rulers and applies his weight test to a Chinese table, and Miss Balmer is dazzled by an expensive ring made of lava from Mount Vesuvius and some glassware made of depleted uranium. Sparks may fly!
