Episode 5

Can parents of spoilt teenagers and twentysomethings reverse the years of over-indulging and mollycoddling?

Thanks to them their kids are bone idle, workshy and devoid of life skills. Now these parents have had enough. They want to fast-track their overprotected brats into fully functioning, independent adults, using real life challenges, in just four weeks.

With the prize of a round-the-world trip on offer, these eight 17 to 25 year olds give up their home comforts for a house in South East London where they must fend for themselves for the first time - cooking, cleaning and, worst of all for them, working. Each episode, the most useless kid is ejected by the people who made them what they are: their parents.

The four remaining kids - Dogan, Dina, Sean and Danielle - are forced to return to school to learn the ultimate lesson in responsibility when they are put in charge of two classes of nine-year-old children.

Danielle has been living off nothing but instant noodles, takeaways and energy drinks, and consequently is suffering from one almighty blockage. Thanks to Dogan and the support of her housemates and the best laxatives London has to offer, she manages to experience relief after 17 days.

At school, Sean and Dina sail through the challenge, whereas Dogan and Danielle suffer their worst nightmare. Dogan struggles from the outset, convinced he is never going to be able to carry out the task. With the help of the teacher, he manages to conquer his nerves and, to his huge surprise, makes it through the day.

Danielle decides to teach the kids about Princess Diana, which leads to considerable confusion among the kids when they put on their performance for the parents and the school at the end of the day.
