Clacton-on-Sea
Susan's adventure begins with a whistle-stop tour of the largest pleasure pier in Europe and the best way to see it all in is from above, so Susan braves the dizzying heights of a Ferris Wheel before rewarding herself with a visit to the arcade! Next on Susan's to-do list is a visit to the theatre, where several stars of stage and screen got their big break. Susan's dreams come true during the rehearsals for the summer show as she is picked to be a magician's assistant.
Then Susan heads to the beach to do something she's never done before… bury herself! Just along the promenade she comes across a 19th-century martello tower designed to protect the coast from Napoleon's invasion (that ultimately never happened.) This one is rather special as they now serve afternoon tea in the moat.
Back on the pier she has a go at making candy floss before meeting up with comedian Nina Wadia, who reminisces about her first trip to Clacton in her teens. Susan and Nina battle it out on the pier's water dodgems, it's a bump or spray situation. Later, further along the coast Nina takes the ultimate pony hack - on the beach.
After Susan checks out a traditional hotel and one of the oldest buildings in town she treats herself to some tiny souvenirs to remind her of the big fun she's had in Clacton-on-Sea. Finally, there's just time to squeeze in a classic beachside game of lawn bowls.
