00:03 Old Mays knocked on the door, and we went out.

00:18 I was looking to see if we won a car or a holiday.

00:23 Then they opened the screen up, and they showed us

00:26 this beautiful £3 million house.

00:29 I just couldn't believe it.

00:31 I was so shocked.

00:32 After all the cameras had gone, we

00:34 had to go and put our feet up and celebrate

00:37 with a couple of brandies, large brandies.

00:41 I still can't believe it, even though I'm

00:44 sitting in this beautiful house.

00:47 Cornwall is gorgeous.

00:48 We came here for a family holiday in the '80s,

00:51 but I would never thought that we'd actually

00:54 own a £3 million house in Cornwall.

00:56 The size of the living room is absolutely immense.

01:00 The bedrooms are gorgeous.

01:01 Opening the curtains in every morning,

01:03 waking up to these views, you should never get bored of it.

01:07 Well, I think the family's going to be shocked when they see it,

01:10 especially my sister Maureen, because she's

01:12 got a caravan in green.

01:14 She'll be a bit jealous.

01:16 It's fantastic for our family's future.

01:19 They won't have to struggle as much as we did.

01:23 We like to give as much as we can to charities.

01:25 That's why we go to a maze.

01:27 Wow, £3.1 million.

01:33 That has completely surpassed our expectations.

01:36 The money raised will go to support our work on UK coastlines

01:39 to help us take action with the UK government

01:41 and support young people to connect with nature.

01:44 Shockingly, in the UK, we have some of the most nature

01:47 depleted wildlife in the world.

01:49 We now have 40 million fewer birds in the sky

01:52 than when I was a young boy.

01:53 And that loss is translated both on land, sea,

01:56 and in the oceans as well.

01:58 This partnership with Omaze has also

01:59 raised awareness for the issues that

02:01 are facing our natural world.

02:03 I want to say a huge thank you to everybody that entered.

02:06 Each and every one of you are helping

02:07 to bring our world back to life.

02:09 We're thrilled that the Cornwall house draw

02:11 has raised an incredible £3.1 million for WWF.

02:15 This means the Omaze community has now

02:18 raised over £37 million for good causes in the UK.

02:22 £25 for a £3 million home.

02:26 Great return.
