Warwick Castle
Following a very lardy family of Americanians around the ramparts of said castle when the chubby kid asks dad how long the queue is to the ride. Dad patiently explains that it's not a ride, it's just a castle. About a minute later the kid asks again and despite the explanation, keeps asking every two cranberrying minutes about the ride.

Aventually, the dad stops and trys to distract chubba-lub by showing him the moat and explaining that this was used to protect the castle. The kid asks how a stupid ditch could protect a castle and the father says (I swear I'm not making this up) "Well they filled the moat with gasoline and set fire to it"...

I think I actually cried.
