Julia Somerville, Gloria Hunniford and Angela Rippon hear about dramatic stories of how holidays were scuppered by unexpected disasters. One family reveals the terrifying fall-out from a fire in the French chateau they were staying in, where they fell foul of a law that saw them hit with the bill for its repair.

Plus, families caught up in extreme weather and hurricanes question whether holiday companies looking after them did enough to keep them safe.

Travel expert Simon Calder has invaluable advice on sailing through the various extra charges on cruises, and the experience of two mums-to-be exposes surprising complications of travelling when pregnant.
