0:00:02 > 0:00:03I'm Stacey Dooley,

0:00:03 > 0:00:05and Show Me What You're Made Of is back in Africa.

0:00:05 > 0:00:08This has got one of the fastest-growing economies

0:00:08 > 0:00:09in the world.

0:00:09 > 0:00:13It's the perfect place for our five to get to grips with some real work.

0:00:13 > 0:00:16Much of what we use at home starts life right here.

0:00:16 > 0:00:18You make it look so easy.

0:00:18 > 0:00:22From chocolate to gold, peanuts to pineapples,

0:00:22 > 0:00:25not to mention most of the world's bling.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28This is worth millions and millions.

0:00:28 > 0:00:29Whoa!

0:00:29 > 0:00:32Our five pampered kids are making their way across Africa,

0:00:32 > 0:00:35to find out first-hand the hard work

0:00:35 > 0:00:38that goes into making some of their favourite things.

0:00:38 > 0:00:42- Nice and quick, girls. - Ooh, urgh!- Argh!

0:00:42 > 0:00:45But what happens when they have to work in the farms...

0:00:45 > 0:00:47Emily, quickly!

0:00:47 > 0:00:50..mines and factories of this tough continent?

0:00:50 > 0:00:53- I'm trying my best.- Are you trying your best? I don't think you are.

0:00:53 > 0:00:54I'm off.

0:00:54 > 0:00:56Can they win over demanding bosses?

0:00:56 > 0:00:59First task, this is how it is here.

0:01:02 > 0:01:04I'm so sorry!

0:01:04 > 0:01:06Will they handle the hardship?

0:01:06 > 0:01:08Do people live here?

0:01:08 > 0:01:10Yes, people live here.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13Oh, my God, there's cows coming towards us.

0:01:13 > 0:01:16Or could real-life Africa be too much for them?

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- What do I do with it? - You put it here, you put it here.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22- SHE SNIFFLES - What are you crying for?

0:01:27 > 0:01:28Let's meet our five kids.

0:01:28 > 0:01:31They are bossy boots Emily...

0:01:31 > 0:01:34I don't actually always get my own way...

0:01:34 > 0:01:36Actually, that's a lie. Yeah, I think I do.

0:01:36 > 0:01:37..mirror man Rob...

0:01:37 > 0:01:40My favourite thing about myself is my hair.

0:01:40 > 0:01:42..country lass Kathryn...

0:01:42 > 0:01:47There's really not much here apart from cows, sheep, animals.

0:01:47 > 0:01:48..games boy Ed...

0:01:48 > 0:01:53When I do go outside, it's because my dad dragged me outside.

0:01:53 > 0:01:54..and selfie queen Jasmine.

0:01:54 > 0:01:56I'm really vain.

0:01:56 > 0:02:01We've flown 3,000 miles from the UK to Ghana in West Africa,

0:02:01 > 0:02:05and today our kids start work on a remote cocoa farm in Suhum,

0:02:05 > 0:02:08where they'll find out where chocolate really comes from.

0:02:08 > 0:02:10I didn't think it growed on trees, though.

0:02:11 > 0:02:15Even though we Brits spend almost £4 billion a year on chocolate,

0:02:15 > 0:02:17not many people know that nearly all of it

0:02:17 > 0:02:19begins life in West Africa.

0:02:19 > 0:02:20Surprised, really.

0:02:20 > 0:02:23How will they handle their first taste of the African bush?

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Argh! What is that?

0:02:26 > 0:02:29Can they cope in a place where not only the work is hard...

0:02:29 > 0:02:31Need to get a move on!

0:02:32 > 0:02:34..but just getting there is a real challenge, too?

0:02:34 > 0:02:37- I'm not liking this. ALL:- Whoa!

0:02:43 > 0:02:44So, we're here!

0:02:44 > 0:02:47Our first day in Ghana and it's so exciting.

0:02:47 > 0:02:48Everyone's just packing up.

0:02:48 > 0:02:50We're getting ready to go to our first location

0:02:50 > 0:02:52and we're having to bring everything.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55I don't think the kids quite realise just how basic

0:02:55 > 0:02:56and how remote it's going to be.

0:02:56 > 0:02:59So we've got pillows, we've got buckets,

0:02:59 > 0:03:00we've got all our food.

0:03:00 > 0:03:04If you look closely, there's some eggs sitting on the front seat.

0:03:04 > 0:03:07We've even had to bring our own toilet.

0:03:07 > 0:03:10I think the kids are going to be in for a huge surprise.

0:03:13 > 0:03:16The kids are now leaving the comfort of their four-star hotel

0:03:16 > 0:03:18to head deep into the African bush.

0:03:20 > 0:03:24So, good news, the portaloo has just turned up.

0:03:24 > 0:03:26I don't know whether or not you can see it.

0:03:26 > 0:03:30It's that huge green rectangle with the yellow lid.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33I don't think they realise it's coming with us.

0:03:33 > 0:03:34Yes, I'm taking them to the

0:03:34 > 0:03:37sort of place you have to bring your own toilet.

0:03:41 > 0:03:43As we begin our epic journey north,

0:03:43 > 0:03:47our kids get the distinct impression they're being followed.

0:03:47 > 0:03:48Emily, what do you reckon?

0:03:48 > 0:03:53Oh, my God. If there's a portaloo, then that obviously means that

0:03:53 > 0:03:55we're going somewhere with no loos.

0:03:56 > 0:04:00And that means that it must be like a mud hole or something.

0:04:00 > 0:04:03But it's not just the portaloo that's unsettling everyone.

0:04:03 > 0:04:07Our five are realising they're very far from home.

0:04:07 > 0:04:10I'm feeling very overwhelmed by everything.

0:04:10 > 0:04:12Jasmine, your first time abroad,

0:04:12 > 0:04:16so you've really don't know what to expect, I'd imagine.

0:04:16 > 0:04:19No, I know it's going to be different,

0:04:19 > 0:04:21a lot different from home.

0:04:21 > 0:04:24I don't really like having mud all over me.

0:04:24 > 0:04:30Especially with that porta potty back there, I'm not liking that.

0:04:32 > 0:04:34As tarmac gives way to dirt road,

0:04:34 > 0:04:36our long journey isn't even over yet,

0:04:36 > 0:04:38so were forced to stop for the night

0:04:38 > 0:04:41before reaching our final destination in the morning.

0:04:41 > 0:04:43So we're here, we've made it to the hotel.

0:04:43 > 0:04:47Me, the kids and our loo are all in one piece.

0:04:47 > 0:04:50You know, some of the kids spoke of feeling quite overwhelmed,

0:04:50 > 0:04:51and that's understandable,

0:04:51 > 0:04:53everything they're seeing is just so different

0:04:53 > 0:04:55to what they're used to back home,

0:04:55 > 0:04:58so it does feel like we've been on a bit of an adventure already

0:04:58 > 0:05:01and they haven't even started the work yet.

0:05:01 > 0:05:04This hotel is the best accommodation for miles,

0:05:04 > 0:05:08but who knew, it's not quite up to our kids' four-star standards.

0:05:08 > 0:05:11I'm not impressed, it's really disgusting.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15To start with...that.

0:05:16 > 0:05:17It's not even clean.

0:05:17 > 0:05:19If you look up at the lights,

0:05:19 > 0:05:22it looks as if they're about to fall off.

0:05:22 > 0:05:26Cupboards here, the wardrobes...

0:05:27 > 0:05:29What even is that?

0:05:30 > 0:05:3513-year-old Emily from Sussex has no problem voicing her opinion.

0:05:35 > 0:05:37Emily speaks her mind all the time.

0:05:37 > 0:05:40If there's something wrong and I feel it strong, I will say it.

0:05:40 > 0:05:42Sometimes it can come across as rude.

0:05:44 > 0:05:47And words aren't the only way Emily likes to express herself.

0:05:47 > 0:05:49She loves clothes.

0:05:49 > 0:05:52I love my fashion. I'd say I'm a fashionista as well.

0:05:52 > 0:05:56Like even if I'm walking the dogs, I'll have to have my hair all nice

0:05:56 > 0:05:57and everything.

0:05:57 > 0:06:00But she's not keen on paying for the clothes herself.

0:06:00 > 0:06:03Emily asks for things all the time.

0:06:03 > 0:06:05I don't actually always get my own way.

0:06:05 > 0:06:07Whatever it is, wherever she's going,

0:06:07 > 0:06:08she always needs something new.

0:06:08 > 0:06:11Actually, that's a lie. Yeah, I think I do.

0:06:11 > 0:06:14Emily's mum is hoping the trip will give her a bit of a jolt.

0:06:14 > 0:06:18I would like Emily to come back and to really appreciate everything

0:06:18 > 0:06:21that she's got and to not want more all the time.

0:06:23 > 0:06:26Back in Africa, I go to find out what's got the kids

0:06:26 > 0:06:28so het up about our hotel.

0:06:28 > 0:06:29You all right, guys?

0:06:29 > 0:06:33- Hi.- Hi.- Did you lot want to speak to me about something?

0:06:33 > 0:06:36Yeah, we were hoping to change rooms.

0:06:36 > 0:06:38We wanted to see if we could change rooms.

0:06:38 > 0:06:41Just cos the room is just disgusting.

0:06:41 > 0:06:45Actually, this is really comfortable for a lot of people here

0:06:45 > 0:06:47and you're going to be staying in places far more remote

0:06:47 > 0:06:49and basic than this.

0:06:49 > 0:06:50This is as good as it gets here.

0:06:52 > 0:06:55What, so this is the nicest place we're going to stay?

0:06:55 > 0:06:57- Probably.- Ah!

0:06:57 > 0:07:00You've got to toughen up. This is going to be a hard couple of weeks.

0:07:02 > 0:07:05Our kids are already struggling with Africa,

0:07:05 > 0:07:08but if they think this is basic, they're in for a shock tomorrow.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19The next morning, and everyone is feeling more at home.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23Our kids are just having a bit of breakfast before we set off

0:07:23 > 0:07:26and I'm just hoping it's not the calm before the storm.

0:07:30 > 0:07:32Our convoy sets off from the hotel

0:07:32 > 0:07:35and heads deeper into the African countryside...

0:07:37 > 0:07:39But, as we approach our final destination,

0:07:39 > 0:07:42it seems things might be going downhill again.

0:07:42 > 0:07:44- Oh, my God.- I'm not liking this.

0:07:44 > 0:07:46- ALL:- Whoa! - Oh, my God!

0:07:49 > 0:07:51Heavy rain overnight means

0:07:51 > 0:07:54getting our bus up the hill is proving impossible.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Honestly.

0:07:59 > 0:08:01Without a bus, car or even a bike in sight,

0:08:01 > 0:08:03our only option is to walk...

0:08:03 > 0:08:04Eurgh.

0:08:06 > 0:08:08..which gives me the perfect opportunity

0:08:08 > 0:08:12to finally reveal what the kids' first day of work will entail.

0:08:12 > 0:08:15Us Brits love chocolate, and a lot of it starts here.

0:08:15 > 0:08:19In fact, Ghana is fast becoming the largest exporter of cocoa

0:08:19 > 0:08:20in the world,

0:08:20 > 0:08:23and today you lot are going to be working on a cocoa farm.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- ALL:- Whoa!

0:08:26 > 0:08:31Cocoa is the pride and joy of Ghana, it's their most important export.

0:08:31 > 0:08:34This small country produces a fifth of the world's supply.

0:08:34 > 0:08:37Without their cocoa, there's no chocolate for us.

0:08:37 > 0:08:40They even call it Ghana's brown gold.

0:08:41 > 0:08:42Perfect.

0:08:44 > 0:08:47The cocoa beans grown on this farm are top quality.

0:08:47 > 0:08:49The beans go straight to Europe, and the money it brings in

0:08:49 > 0:08:51supports this whole village.

0:08:51 > 0:08:54So today the entire community wants to meet our kids

0:08:54 > 0:08:57before letting them work with their precious crop.

0:08:57 > 0:09:00These people are waiting for you.

0:09:00 > 0:09:03But first, the kids must meet their boss.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04- Hello.- Hello.

0:09:04 > 0:09:05- Yayra.- Hey, how are you doing?

0:09:05 > 0:09:06How do you do?

0:09:06 > 0:09:09Guys, this is Yayra, he's the cocoa exporter,

0:09:09 > 0:09:11and Samuel owns this cocoa farm.

0:09:13 > 0:09:17And these are just the first of many introductions.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- SPEAKS IN GHANAIAN LANGUAGE - ..cocoa farmer.

0:09:20 > 0:09:23SPEAKS IN GHANAIAN LANGUAGE ..cocoa farmer.

0:09:23 > 0:09:27- SPEAKS IN GHANAIAN LANGUAGE - ...cocoa farmer.

0:09:28 > 0:09:31- SPEAKS IN GHANAIAN LANGUAGE - ..cocoa farmer.

0:09:31 > 0:09:34THEY CHEER

0:09:34 > 0:09:38Ghana is so proud of its cocoa, it even has its own chant.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40- Ghana. ALL:- Cocoa.

0:09:40 > 0:09:41- Ghana. ALL:- Cocoa.

0:09:41 > 0:09:43- Cocoa. ALL:- Ghana.

0:09:43 > 0:09:46And it's the first thing our kids must learn.

0:09:46 > 0:09:48- Cocoa. - ALL:- Ghana.

0:09:48 > 0:09:50- Ghana. - ALL:- Cocoa.

0:09:50 > 0:09:52- Cocoa. ALL:- Ghana.

0:09:52 > 0:09:54- Ghana. ALL:- Cocoa.

0:09:54 > 0:09:56Having shown the farmers they're serious,

0:09:56 > 0:09:59our kids get the stamp of approval from the village

0:09:59 > 0:10:01and can finally get down to business.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02You know where chocolate comes from?

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- Cadbury's? - Have you ever seen a cocoa bean?

0:10:06 > 0:10:09- That's a cocoa bean. - So that's a cocoa bean?

0:10:11 > 0:10:12You know what?

0:10:12 > 0:10:16- This is where chocolate comes from. - This is where chocolate comes from.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19'Those cocoa beans grow in big, yellow pods.

0:10:19 > 0:10:21'Yayra has decided to put the kids

0:10:21 > 0:10:24'to work deep in the cocoa plantation,

0:10:24 > 0:10:26'where the pods are ready for picking.'

0:10:26 > 0:10:28Samuel is going to demonstrate to you

0:10:28 > 0:10:31what he has been doing here every day.

0:10:31 > 0:10:33It is no easy task.

0:10:33 > 0:10:35It is really hard work.

0:10:36 > 0:10:41'At harvest time, the average farmer picks 200 pods an hour.

0:10:41 > 0:10:43'And today, our kids' job is to pick half of that.'

0:10:43 > 0:10:45OK, so we are here to work.

0:10:45 > 0:10:47You've got one hour, you've got to get 100 pods each.

0:10:47 > 0:10:50Don't forget, you've got your two bosses here,

0:10:50 > 0:10:52they are going to be watching you every single step of the way.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54- They mean business.- Right.

0:10:54 > 0:10:56- So, you're focused, yeah? - KIDS:- Yeah.

0:10:56 > 0:10:58- Cool.- Cocoa!

0:10:58 > 0:10:59- KIDS:- Ghana!- Ghana!

0:10:59 > 0:11:01- KIDS:- Cocoa!- Let's go.

0:11:04 > 0:11:08'They've got an hour to pick 100 pods, so they must be quick,

0:11:08 > 0:11:10'but also pace themselves.

0:11:10 > 0:11:14'Temperatures can soar to a sweltering 40 degrees on this farm,

0:11:14 > 0:11:16'so keeping cool is crucial.'

0:11:16 > 0:11:18I think I am doing really well.

0:11:18 > 0:11:20I think I am pretty awesome at this.

0:11:21 > 0:11:23See that? That is the work of a pro.

0:11:23 > 0:11:25'But just minutes later...

0:11:25 > 0:11:28'We are already a man down.'

0:11:28 > 0:11:31Unfortunately, I think the heat has just got to Kathryn.

0:11:31 > 0:11:34She doesn't feel very well. She is having to sit this task out.

0:11:34 > 0:11:36I think it just gives you an indication of how hot,

0:11:36 > 0:11:39how hard and how humid it is out here.

0:11:39 > 0:11:41'And Emily is back to princess mode.'

0:11:41 > 0:11:44I've done only ten and I am exhausted.

0:11:44 > 0:11:47Jasmine was telling me that she is incredibly competitive.

0:11:47 > 0:11:50She doesn't like losing. So I think she has got a system where

0:11:50 > 0:11:52she can get more than one at one time.

0:11:54 > 0:11:59I'm going to, like, think about doing 200.

0:11:59 > 0:12:01That's my aim.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05'Jasmine is rushing from tree to tree, but in her haste, she risks

0:12:05 > 0:12:09'picking unripe pods and damaging the root of this prized crop.'

0:12:09 > 0:12:12- This is very precious for the farmer. - Yeah.

0:12:12 > 0:12:15Because it is like a bank for him. This is where he gets his money.

0:12:15 > 0:12:17- Yeah, the trees are so precious, very vital.- Very precious.

0:12:17 > 0:12:19These are special trees.

0:12:19 > 0:12:22- Very special.- We take good care of them.- We must be very careful.

0:12:22 > 0:12:23Exactly.

0:12:23 > 0:12:27'Unlike the girls, Ed and Rob are taking it really seriously

0:12:27 > 0:12:30'and carefully picking the ripest pods.'

0:12:30 > 0:12:34The toughest part of this is actually finding healthy ones.

0:12:40 > 0:12:43'While the boys are hard at it, for Jasmine,

0:12:43 > 0:12:46'it seems to be less about work and more about winning.'

0:12:46 > 0:12:51More than 15 in, like, 20 minutes.

0:12:51 > 0:12:53At least I'm going to beat the target.

0:12:55 > 0:12:59'12-year-old Jasmine, from Bedford, has one thing on her mind.'

0:12:59 > 0:13:01Here is my phone, and I love it, love it, love it!

0:13:01 > 0:13:04She's literally - eyes glued down onto her phone.

0:13:04 > 0:13:05I like texting people.

0:13:05 > 0:13:08"Do want to come out today? What are you up to? What is the new gossip?"

0:13:08 > 0:13:11I never stop talking. I actually never stop talking.

0:13:11 > 0:13:12'But Jasmine doesn't just use

0:13:12 > 0:13:14'her phone to keep in touch with friends.'

0:13:14 > 0:13:16Jasmine is the queen of selfies.

0:13:16 > 0:13:20I have taken about 150 photos of me.

0:13:20 > 0:13:23A lot of my friends tell me that I'm lame.

0:13:23 > 0:13:25'And when Jasmine is too tied up on her phone,

0:13:25 > 0:13:28'she relies on her twin sister Shola to help out.'

0:13:28 > 0:13:32I might come in in the mornings and tell Jasmine to clean her room.

0:13:32 > 0:13:35I'll go back in five minutes later and Shola will be the one

0:13:35 > 0:13:38cleaning and Jasmine will just be on her phone, with no care in the world.

0:13:38 > 0:13:41'Jasmine's mum hopes her African trip will help her realise

0:13:41 > 0:13:43'that the world doesn't revolve around her.'

0:13:43 > 0:13:45I want her to come back to reality.

0:13:47 > 0:13:49Jasmine. Are you ever going to run out of breath?

0:13:49 > 0:13:52'Back on the farm, Jasmine is on a mission to beat that target.

0:13:52 > 0:13:54'And in a crafty move,

0:13:54 > 0:13:56'she has got one of the locals to give her a hand.'

0:13:56 > 0:13:59Thank you so much.

0:13:59 > 0:14:02'She is using their scarf as a makeshift basket.

0:14:02 > 0:14:03Thank you!

0:14:04 > 0:14:07'But her ever-increasing pile hasn't escaped

0:14:07 > 0:14:09'the attention of the others, and they are not happy.'

0:14:09 > 0:14:12She has got that massive bucket thing, whatever she is using...

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- She's using a scarf, isn't she? - ..and we don't.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18'Convinced that Jasmine is cheating, Emily decides to fight fire

0:14:18 > 0:14:21'with fire and steel some pods for herself.'

0:14:21 > 0:14:23She's got too many, she won't notice.

0:14:24 > 0:14:27Just don't tell her. Sh.

0:14:27 > 0:14:29'But little gets past the boss.'

0:14:29 > 0:14:33- We have to tell them, it's kind of cheating on the other.- Exactly.

0:14:37 > 0:14:40'Finally, after an exhausting morning, the hour is up.

0:14:40 > 0:14:42'Their first taste of farm work is over.'

0:14:42 > 0:14:44HE SIGHS

0:14:44 > 0:14:47'But have they done enough to impress their boss?'

0:14:47 > 0:14:50Yayra and his team are going to count your pods.

0:14:50 > 0:14:52They're going to see how well you've done.

0:14:52 > 0:14:54You are going to take a well-deserved break.

0:14:54 > 0:14:55And we're going to meet up with Yayra

0:14:55 > 0:14:57and find out how you got on, yeah?

0:14:59 > 0:15:00The hard work might be over,

0:15:00 > 0:15:03but the kids' greatest challenge is yet to come.

0:15:06 > 0:15:09I think that was the most gammiest thing I I've ever actually seen.

0:15:09 > 0:15:11It's disgusting.

0:15:11 > 0:15:14'It's just not something I'd want to do ever again.'

0:15:14 > 0:15:16So next time, I'm going in the bush.

0:15:18 > 0:15:21'The pods have been counted and all the kids can do is wait

0:15:21 > 0:15:25'to find out who Yayra will promote and who he will demote.'

0:15:25 > 0:15:27Edward, you really have done well.

0:15:27 > 0:15:30You were a bit slow, but you got to 77.

0:15:30 > 0:15:33That is really impressive.

0:15:33 > 0:15:35And Robbie, how did Robert do?

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Robert, you've actually brought it to 84.

0:15:38 > 0:15:39I told you!

0:15:39 > 0:15:42- I'm proud of that, actually.- Yes.

0:15:42 > 0:15:44Jasmine was actually the fastest.

0:15:44 > 0:15:47She actually got 114 pods.

0:15:47 > 0:15:51- Yes!- 114 pods.- 114.

0:15:51 > 0:15:55But I have seen that she was having a scarf.

0:15:55 > 0:15:57You did have this advantage that the others didn't.

0:15:57 > 0:16:00- Exactly.- Do you think that is fair? - I don't know, really.

0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Do you guys think it is fair or not? - No.- No?

0:16:03 > 0:16:05- No.- It's not fair, then.

0:16:05 > 0:16:08- Emily, Emily, Emily.- Emily.

0:16:08 > 0:16:11So you got 41 pods. That's all you made.

0:16:13 > 0:16:17So, you know, we have to promote some and demote some.

0:16:17 > 0:16:22I can only say that the two ladies have, in a way, cheated.

0:16:22 > 0:16:27You were actually picking some pods from Jasmine.

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- And that is really not good.- And Rob.

0:16:30 > 0:16:31And you were using a scarf,

0:16:31 > 0:16:34so we have to say that the two ladies are demoted

0:16:34 > 0:16:39and the two young men are to be promoted.

0:16:39 > 0:16:43- Wow!- Yes, yes!

0:16:43 > 0:16:46I'm disappointed, but to be honest, I knew it was coming

0:16:46 > 0:16:51because I got the least amount of cocoa...things.

0:16:51 > 0:16:56I got 114 and our target was 100, and everyone else got below that.

0:16:56 > 0:16:58And I got demoted!

0:16:58 > 0:17:00But I'm not the expert here, so...

0:17:04 > 0:17:07While some of our kids have started to settle in,

0:17:07 > 0:17:10guess who doesn't think the place is Emily enough.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15The village is so different to anything I have ever seen.

0:17:15 > 0:17:18The houses are awful. They live in mud huts.

0:17:18 > 0:17:21And I'm not kidding, I thought that was just, like, a phrase.

0:17:21 > 0:17:23They live in literal mud.

0:17:23 > 0:17:27Emily may be surprised that the conditions of this village,

0:17:27 > 0:17:30but Kathryn, Rob and Ed have asked to meet Samuel's family.

0:17:30 > 0:17:32Samuel, you well?

0:17:32 > 0:17:37- Is this your wife?- Yes. - Akweley? Lovely to meet you.

0:17:37 > 0:17:41'Farm owner Samuel lives in a two-room house with his wife,

0:17:41 > 0:17:42'their parents and children.'

0:17:45 > 0:17:46Wow.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52How many people sleep in here?

0:17:52 > 0:17:54Two.

0:17:54 > 0:17:58My bedroom at home is a lot bigger.

0:17:58 > 0:18:02You are a lucky boy, you are very lucky.

0:18:02 > 0:18:05We don't work from a young age. We start at 16, 17.

0:18:05 > 0:18:08And we get things that we take for granted, just from our parents.

0:18:08 > 0:18:13Akweley, is there anything that our kids can do to help you?

0:18:13 > 0:18:17HE TRANSLATES

0:18:18 > 0:18:20Yes, I can do it.

0:18:20 > 0:18:22I can help them.

0:18:22 > 0:18:24- Are you up for that?- KIDS: Yeah.

0:18:24 > 0:18:26Akweley, they are all yours.

0:18:26 > 0:18:29- You have three more children. - Thank you.

0:18:29 > 0:18:32'On the other side of the village, I have sent Jasmine

0:18:32 > 0:18:36'and Emily to meet 14-year-old twins - Junior and Senior.'

0:18:36 > 0:18:37Oh!

0:18:39 > 0:18:42This is my grandfather's room.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44And this is our living room.

0:18:46 > 0:18:49And this is our bedroom.

0:18:49 > 0:18:53It's like a hammock or something with a net in, I'm guessing.

0:18:53 > 0:18:55Now, this is our mat.

0:18:55 > 0:18:57Oh, so you sleep on the floor?

0:18:57 > 0:19:00The boys have nets above their heads that protect them from mosquitoes,

0:19:00 > 0:19:02which in this village, is a luxury.

0:19:02 > 0:19:05It's so different, I really can't get over this.

0:19:05 > 0:19:07If I had to stay here for a night, I think

0:19:07 > 0:19:08I'd probably hyperventilate.

0:19:08 > 0:19:13I like sleeping here because if you sleep here, it's good.

0:19:14 > 0:19:16That was really shocking.

0:19:16 > 0:19:21Like, I never thought that anything was as bad as that.

0:19:21 > 0:19:23While the girls still haven't found their feet here,

0:19:23 > 0:19:26the rest of the group are getting stuck right in,

0:19:26 > 0:19:29although I think domestic duties might be a new

0:19:29 > 0:19:30thing for all of them.

0:19:30 > 0:19:32It's actually quite difficult,

0:19:32 > 0:19:35like getting the stuff off that I don't see.

0:19:35 > 0:19:40- It's kind of...- Do you do the washing up at home?- No.- No?

0:19:43 > 0:19:47It makes me feel like I want to do a little bit more at home,

0:19:47 > 0:19:49but not too much.

0:19:52 > 0:19:55As the kids prepare to bed down for the night in the best rooms the

0:19:55 > 0:19:59village has to offer, it seems some of our kids are still not happy.

0:19:59 > 0:20:02Whoa, look at all the... Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa...

0:20:02 > 0:20:03WHOA!

0:20:03 > 0:20:05That is massive!

0:20:05 > 0:20:08One night would be an adventure, I think,

0:20:08 > 0:20:11but any more than one night, like two weeks or whatever, is

0:20:11 > 0:20:15just too much, pushing the boat out, cos there's no showers here.

0:20:15 > 0:20:16No showers.

0:20:17 > 0:20:21And it is not just our kids that are discovering new things today.

0:20:23 > 0:20:28THEY TALK AT ONCE

0:20:31 > 0:20:33ROOSTER CROWS

0:20:36 > 0:20:39So it is the morning of day two and our kids have spent

0:20:39 > 0:20:41their first-ever night in a Ghanaian village.

0:20:44 > 0:20:47This is the first time I ever had to make up my own bed.

0:20:49 > 0:20:51As soon as the sun is up, work starts here.

0:20:51 > 0:20:53And having impressed the boss yesterday,

0:20:53 > 0:20:57Yayra has got the perfect job for Rob, Kathryn and Ed.

0:20:57 > 0:20:59OK, guys,

0:20:59 > 0:21:02back where we all started.

0:21:02 > 0:21:05- Yayra, how are you today? - Good.- Are you well?- Yeah.

0:21:05 > 0:21:07Hello, Samuel.

0:21:07 > 0:21:11OK, guys, I really want to give you a chance at the most important

0:21:11 > 0:21:13task in chocolate production.

0:21:15 > 0:21:20Inside every pod, are the precious cocoa beans that make our chocolate.

0:21:20 > 0:21:22The kids must remove the beans carefully.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26Every part contains enough beans to make two chocolate bars,

0:21:26 > 0:21:28so every one counts.

0:21:28 > 0:21:32It feels really gooey and slimy,

0:21:32 > 0:21:33kind of like tadpole slime.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39This is actually... It's actually surprisingly fun.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41Cruising for a bruising.

0:21:41 > 0:21:45But Yayra has got other ideas for demoted duo Jasmine and Emily.

0:21:45 > 0:21:49He has given them one of the most unpleasant jobs in cocoa production.

0:21:49 > 0:21:53You have to redeem yourself today by really portraying

0:21:53 > 0:21:54how best you can do that job.

0:21:57 > 0:22:01After sitting in the baking heat for six days, the white flesh

0:22:01 > 0:22:06round the cocoa beans is rotten, and the girls' task is to remove it.

0:22:06 > 0:22:08I don't know if I can do this.

0:22:08 > 0:22:13It smells, I'm not kidding, like, fish with loads of vinegar on.

0:22:13 > 0:22:16I think that has put me off of chocolate for life.

0:22:16 > 0:22:19Jasmine isn't distracted by the smell and after cheating

0:22:19 > 0:22:21yesterday, she is determined to impress.

0:22:21 > 0:22:24- Just get in there, it's not that hard.- It's not hard.

0:22:24 > 0:22:26- No, I don't like it. - It's just cocoa.

0:22:26 > 0:22:30Oh, dear, it seems Emily is really not liking this.

0:22:30 > 0:22:32Emily, come on!

0:22:32 > 0:22:34It stinks. And I don't like it on me.

0:22:34 > 0:22:37And it looks like I've put my hand in sick.

0:22:37 > 0:22:39Let's get to work.

0:22:39 > 0:22:42- Or would you like to fetch water instead?- I'll do it.

0:22:42 > 0:22:46So, you know what you are going to do. Jasmine will pick this placenta.

0:22:46 > 0:22:49- What do I do with it? What do I do with that?- You put it here.

0:22:49 > 0:22:51- What do I...?- You put it here.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53- Eww!- You see, you are going to waste it.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56This is very expensive.

0:22:56 > 0:22:57This is a lot of money.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03How are you getting on, Rob?

0:23:03 > 0:23:06- I think I am doing quite well, actually.- Yeah, not too bad?

0:23:06 > 0:23:09- Not too bad.- Ed? Tell me how you are finding it.

0:23:09 > 0:23:15I'm finding it quite icky, I don't like the taking out bit.

0:23:17 > 0:23:21I wouldn't imagine how much work went into making chocolate.

0:23:21 > 0:23:23I'm surprised, really.

0:23:24 > 0:23:27I tried to open this. You have a go.

0:23:30 > 0:23:31Ed, it wasn't that hard.

0:23:31 > 0:23:35- What? That's because I loosened it for you.- Yeah.

0:23:37 > 0:23:40Finally, it seems Emily has settled in.

0:23:40 > 0:23:43We do seem to have a bit of a turnaround.

0:23:43 > 0:23:47Jasmine seems to be getting stuck in and Emily is following suit.

0:23:49 > 0:23:51My pile is actually catching up.

0:23:51 > 0:23:54Never thought you'd hear that, would you? I'm beating Jasmine, guys.

0:23:54 > 0:23:56THEY LAUGH

0:23:56 > 0:23:58As both tasks near the end, there is

0:23:58 > 0:24:03- one last challenge for our promoted group.- Don't spill it.- OK.

0:24:03 > 0:24:05They must carry their beans to the drying area,

0:24:05 > 0:24:07just like the locals do.

0:24:07 > 0:24:09I've got an itchy nose.

0:24:16 > 0:24:19THEY SPEAK IN LOCAL TONGUE

0:24:21 > 0:24:24And it is not just the promoted lot who are pleased with themselves.

0:24:24 > 0:24:26I did try my hardest.

0:24:26 > 0:24:29It was fun. To me it was.

0:24:29 > 0:24:31Our girls have actually finished the task.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33And I've got to say, I am quite proud of them.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36They got their heads down and they've done it.

0:24:36 > 0:24:39So Yayra decides to allow Emily

0:24:39 > 0:24:42and Jasmine to rejoin the rest of the group for their final job.

0:24:42 > 0:24:45OK, gang, follow Yayra.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48This is the girls' last chance to prove his themselves to the boss.

0:24:48 > 0:24:51We will be having Emily and Ed here

0:24:51 > 0:24:53and the rest will go over here.

0:24:54 > 0:24:56Cocoa beans are sold according to size,

0:24:56 > 0:24:59and the final task is to sort the big ones from the little

0:24:59 > 0:25:02ones before they are weighed, bagged and shipped to Europe.

0:25:02 > 0:25:06And, guys, once you have sieved them through, you then put them in a bag.

0:25:09 > 0:25:13So, it moves so fast, you just have to pick them out.

0:25:13 > 0:25:14Jasmine.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18That's it. You have it.

0:25:19 > 0:25:21But before long, it seems even here,

0:25:21 > 0:25:24Emily can't quite help being Emily.

0:25:24 > 0:25:27My arms absolutely kill.

0:25:27 > 0:25:29I'm really on edge.

0:25:29 > 0:25:32Jasmine, however, is full steam ahead.

0:25:36 > 0:25:40For Jasmine, today has been all about proving herself to the boss.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42The question is, has it worked?

0:25:52 > 0:25:56'After a tough two days on the farm, Yayra will now decide who has

0:25:56 > 0:25:58'done enough to earn themselves some wages.'

0:25:58 > 0:26:00The first couple of days in Africa, it's a big deal,

0:26:00 > 0:26:02and you have done very well, all of you.

0:26:02 > 0:26:06You know, you have struggled at certain things, but on the whole,

0:26:06 > 0:26:09I am very proud that you are here, you have given it a go.

0:26:09 > 0:26:12So, guys, some of you will be paid a wage,

0:26:12 > 0:26:16and Yayra's going to tell us who he would hire if you were adults.

0:26:16 > 0:26:19And some of you aren't going to be so lucky this time.

0:26:19 > 0:26:22Edward. You know what, we had good time these two days.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27I have to be very honest with you - you were a bit slower

0:26:27 > 0:26:30and you were not really showing that great interest.

0:26:30 > 0:26:34Rob was really good.

0:26:34 > 0:26:35He was really hard-working.

0:26:35 > 0:26:40It was really fun learning how to do those kind of jobs and how

0:26:40 > 0:26:42often people do these jobs

0:26:42 > 0:26:44and have to go through this kind of stuff.

0:26:44 > 0:26:46- So...- Emily!- Emily of olde.

0:26:46 > 0:26:50Emily was actually just always complaining.

0:26:50 > 0:26:56She was really not working hard. Emily was really, really too lazy.

0:26:56 > 0:26:58Because I have never worked as well.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02- I now know what standards I am expected to work at.- Yes.

0:27:02 > 0:27:06- So next time I will try and push myself...- Really?

0:27:06 > 0:27:09- ..to get to those standards. - Like we pushed the bins.- Yeah.

0:27:09 > 0:27:10Jasmine.

0:27:10 > 0:27:15- How did our Jasmine do?- Jasmine... She has really done very well.

0:27:15 > 0:27:19Jasmine, you have to keep it up. That was so great.

0:27:19 > 0:27:22I'm really competitive in lots of ways,

0:27:22 > 0:27:23so I just wanted to get in and do it.

0:27:23 > 0:27:27So, I really would be straightforward.

0:27:27 > 0:27:32I would really engage Robert and Jasmine.

0:27:32 > 0:27:36- For you.- Thank you.- That is about six quid, about £6.

0:27:36 > 0:27:39- And this is for you, Jaz. - Thank you, Stacey.

0:27:39 > 0:27:41And thank you, Mr Boss Man.

0:27:41 > 0:27:46Emily, Kathryn, Ed, not quite this time round.

0:27:46 > 0:27:47What a surprise(!)

0:27:47 > 0:27:50THEY LAUGH

0:27:50 > 0:27:52No, I thought I had it in the bag.

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Next time on Show Me What You Are Made Of,

0:27:56 > 0:28:00they get the shock of their lives on a toxic waste dump.

0:28:00 > 0:28:01People live here?!

0:28:01 > 0:28:04Can they stomach work in a second-hand shoe warehouse?

0:28:04 > 0:28:07Ugh! They are mouldy.

0:28:07 > 0:28:09Or is Africa just too much?

0:28:09 > 0:28:11- CRYING:- I just don't understand.
