It is the favourite winter holiday of the middle and upper classes - a week in a European ski resort , with days spent exploring the mountain slopes and evening tucking in to local food . But for some , the time spent at some of the highest spots in Europe is focused more on drinking , sex and partying into the small hours . Welcome to the Andorran resort of Pas De La Casa , where it seems holidays are all about boarding , bargain booze and budget holidays . Scroll down for video . Pas De La Casa is all about boarding , bargain booze and budget holidays . Channel 5 documentary Brits on the Piste has looked in to the antics of the workers who spend the winter season in the mountains and the holidaymakers who visit . And the series , currently airing , has proved so popular that viewing figures doubled over the first two episodes . With Pas De La Casa having the reputation as having the one of the best nightlife scenes of any ski resort , it 's certainly an eye-opening experience . The four main bars , that are packed out during ski season , are The Milwaukee , Underground , Paddy 's Bar and The Shamrocks . From downing shots in the bars , to having an early morning skiing lesson with 'Dreadlock Dave ' and partying with DJ Craig , the 'Pete Tong of Pas ' , all things are covered . And it 's not just the visitors behaving badly . The 30 or so British workers at the resort will often drink and part as much as the tourists , with one worker admitting she will have about '20 shots ' while working behind the bar . Fellow barman Danny admits that in the previous season he slept with 15 girls , but says he is aiming for 22-25 this season . Despite the cold weather , there 's always time to take to the Jacuzzi , and these tourists from Wales take the plunge . Following a night on the tiles , it would n't be wise to miss your early morning ski lesson with 'Dreadlock Dave , ' pictured here with bar worker Beth . It seems skiing is not particularly high on the agenda for visitors , despite the high costs of booking winter holidays . Two lively party girls from Ireland find themselves on holiday for five days longer than they planned in episode three , while competitive Craig organises an alcohol-fuelled snowman-building competition , and three hungover resort workers go heli-skiing . 'We were meant to book it for five days , ' say the two Irish visitors . 'But we hit the wrong button on Ryanair and we 're here for ten . ' 'Everyone keeps saying to us 'you 're total p*******s and you 're not going to make the slopes , ' but realistically probably all we 'll make is one day on the slopes . ' Group trips are particularly popular at the bargain resort . Fierce drinking battles between Team Essex and Team Bournemouth - a groups of friends who had swapped sand for snow to party hard - take place in the resort 's bars . Both sides of life at the ski resort are show here , from necking beers and shots on a wild night out , to a moment of romance as Joe proposes to his girlfriend Michelle on the slopes . A group of party animals from Yorkshire get into the spirit to celebrate one of their birthdays . Meanwhile three brothers from Kidderminster , who are travelling to the resort for the first time without their parents , are under no illusions what they 're there for . Engineer Scott , 19 , says : 'This year we 're allowed to go mental , completely mental . Just go out there and get smashed , every night , just drink hard and ski harder . ' Twenty bottles of Jägermeister and a further 20 of vodka are sold every night in the resort 's bars , so it 's little wonder party animals flood the venue . The resort is very male-dominant , with 95 per cent of those who stay there being men . And where alcohol and pride is concerned , this can lead to a tense atmosphere at time . Episode four shows how things can take a turn for the worst as skiing takes a back seat for most of the holidaymakers , replaced with drinking , vomiting and fighting . A group of lads from Leeds talk through how the drinking games fit into skiing . This pair from Essex are forced to show their drinking prowess when they come up with some rival holiday-goers from Bournemouth . 'If you fall over it 's a shot , if you fall over coming off a ski-lift that 's two shots , if you mack ( take ) somebody out that 's a pint , ' says Byron . 'If you 're sick that 's five shots , ' adds his friend Johnny . 'It 's just a vicious circle basically . ' The show also explores those much-discussed resort relationships , from bar workers Danny from Paddy 's and Milwaukee 's Beth . Despite being on , off and then on again , the pair work out how they are going to surprise each other for Valentine 's Day . And in the latest offering , the other side of life at the ski resort is revealed when Joe from Stevenage pops the question to his girlfriend Michelle , complete on bended knee in the snow . Brits on the Piste is shown on 5* and the next episode is Sunday , March 8 at 11pm .
