0:00:02 > 0:00:07- Living at home is a cushy number, leaving you with money to burn.- 500.

0:00:07 > 0:00:09£20 a month on nails, that's never changing.

0:00:09 > 0:00:11That's a grand and a half.

0:00:11 > 0:00:14My financial focus is having massive jugs.

0:00:14 > 0:00:17No wonder so many young people are living with Mum and Dad.

0:00:17 > 0:00:19I do the cooking, I do the cleaning.

0:00:19 > 0:00:22- Sarah pretty much does everything, don't she?- Yeah.

0:00:22 > 0:00:25- It's luxury, really.- They're even moving their other half in.

0:00:25 > 0:00:28My parents went away for three and a half weeks, so I moved him in.

0:00:28 > 0:00:30All of a sudden there's a boy in her bedroom.

0:00:30 > 0:00:33I think the reason that I stay here a lot is for an easier life, really.

0:00:33 > 0:00:37So what happens when they have to move out and fend for themselves?

0:00:37 > 0:00:42- I don't want you to be heard. - You're going into meltdown. - You're making me go into meltdown.

0:00:42 > 0:00:45We're giving young couples the chance to find out.

0:00:45 > 0:00:47I don't know what to do with this, how do I put in the bin?

0:00:47 > 0:00:51- Will they relish their freedom? - Sex life has been fantastic!

0:00:51 > 0:00:53Or push each other to breaking point?

0:00:53 > 0:00:56Oh, my God! Why are you making me look like a dick?

0:00:56 > 0:00:59- Will they move out for good?- I'm so excited!

0:00:59 > 0:01:01Or run home to the Hotel of Mum and Dad?

0:01:01 > 0:01:03What have you decided to do?

0:01:10 > 0:01:14Meet Sami and Roshelle from Bristol, a couple in their late teens

0:01:14 > 0:01:17desperate for a little space.

0:01:17 > 0:01:21- I knew!- As living with Sami's parents, Said and Theresa,

0:01:21 > 0:01:25means three generations under one roof.

0:01:25 > 0:01:29We live with my mum, my dad, my sister, her boyfriend,

0:01:29 > 0:01:31Granddad, and there's also three dogs.

0:01:31 > 0:01:35- BARKING - Always busy, yeah. Every night, we've got to feed all of them

0:01:35 > 0:01:37and they eat a lot.

0:01:37 > 0:01:40It's like being at school, being a dinner lady.

0:01:40 > 0:01:43Everybody has different meals as well.

0:01:43 > 0:01:46Some don't like this and some don't like that.

0:01:46 > 0:01:49No, I just don't like onions the size of a house.

0:01:49 > 0:01:53And while they all get on well, Roshelle has really made her presence known.

0:01:53 > 0:01:57It's hard work, especially cos Roshelle doesn't like lumps,

0:01:57 > 0:02:01so I've got to make sure I get 'em all out.

0:02:01 > 0:02:03And with family life being a bit of a squeeze,

0:02:03 > 0:02:06there's not much opportunity for privacy.

0:02:06 > 0:02:08Our sex life suffers a lot.

0:02:08 > 0:02:12We've got his mum right next door and her bed's right next to this door.

0:02:12 > 0:02:14- There's never a free house.- Never.

0:02:15 > 0:02:18Not quite the happy ending Roshelle imagined

0:02:18 > 0:02:22when their eyes first met two years ago over a deep-fat fryer.

0:02:22 > 0:02:26I moved down from Liverpool and I worked at McDonald's

0:02:26 > 0:02:30and this lovely chap was working in the kitchen and...

0:02:30 > 0:02:34First time I met her, she smiled at me, actually, and that's what drew me in.

0:02:34 > 0:02:39I wasn't interested one single bit, but he kept trying and trying.

0:02:39 > 0:02:42And then he sent me this message that broke the ice,

0:02:42 > 0:02:46even though it only said, "If you want any shifts covering, here's my number."

0:02:46 > 0:02:49Work, but we all knew what that meant!

0:02:49 > 0:02:52And the rest is history.

0:02:52 > 0:02:54Now Sami is working as a roofer...

0:02:55 > 0:03:00..and Roshelle has two jobs, working part-time in a supermarket and a pub.

0:03:00 > 0:03:02- £4 change.- Thank you.- All right?

0:03:02 > 0:03:05But this feisty Birkenhead girl has big ambitions.

0:03:05 > 0:03:09I want to go in the Royal Navy as a medic. I've wanted to do it since I was younger.

0:03:09 > 0:03:13I hope to be the next woman in the Royal Navy to achieve The Blue Cross.

0:03:13 > 0:03:17And Roshelle is moving their relationship forward with military precision.

0:03:17 > 0:03:22We want to move out because of a lot of different issues,

0:03:22 > 0:03:28like tension, clashes, too many people in the house, family.

0:03:28 > 0:03:30- Not enough space for us.- No privacy.

0:03:30 > 0:03:33We just can't really spend time together, can we, no more?

0:03:33 > 0:03:37- Will you miss me, Granddad? - I don't like them to go,

0:03:37 > 0:03:42but still I hope they make a future. That's all I...that's all I want.

0:03:45 > 0:03:48I'd say I'm definitely driving the move on, definitely.

0:03:48 > 0:03:51She seems to get her own way all the time.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55I'm very upfront and opinionated, so I'll be like, "Right, this needs to be done."

0:03:55 > 0:03:58He's a softie anyway, he's got no choice.

0:03:58 > 0:04:02- She's the boss in the relationship. - Most women are, love.

0:04:02 > 0:04:04BOTH LAUGH

0:04:04 > 0:04:08And Sami has his hands full with feisty Roshelle,

0:04:08 > 0:04:10neither of them like to give in.

0:04:10 > 0:04:13We're both really competitive, like, extremely competitive.

0:04:13 > 0:04:17The competitive streak in us does create arguments,

0:04:17 > 0:04:21cos obviously if she loses at Scrabble and thinks she wins, then...

0:04:21 > 0:04:23I never lost, it was definitely a word. Definitely a word.

0:04:23 > 0:04:25It was a made-up word.

0:04:26 > 0:04:29You should let me win cos I'm your girlfriend.

0:04:29 > 0:04:34And Roshelle has won this time, cos we're giving them the chance to road test living alone

0:04:34 > 0:04:36away from Sami's parents for a week.

0:04:36 > 0:04:38But there's one big problem.

0:04:40 > 0:04:43Sami relies on his mum for everything.

0:04:43 > 0:04:48My mum does a hell of a lot for me, she cooks, she cleans, she helps me out with money.

0:04:48 > 0:04:50- All right, Mum?- All right, love.

0:04:50 > 0:04:53- Did you do my room?- I did, love, yes.

0:04:53 > 0:04:59He's pretty useless around the house, he doesn't do anything really, unless he's told to do it.

0:04:59 > 0:05:02- He's a mummy's boy.- Pressure's on. - Watch your fingers.

0:05:02 > 0:05:06And this mummy's boy is worried it could all end in tears.

0:05:06 > 0:05:11I don't think I'm ready to move out, to be honest. I...really don't.

0:05:11 > 0:05:15I'm not going to do everything for him, he's going to have to grow up and stand on his own two feet.

0:05:15 > 0:05:18I'm scared of everything going wrong, really.

0:05:18 > 0:05:23I don't think me and Roshelle will ever break up, but that's also what I'm scared of.

0:05:24 > 0:05:30Though when Roshelle makes up her mind...there's usually no stopping her.

0:05:30 > 0:05:33I want to prove to him that he'll love it, but I need to push him.

0:05:33 > 0:05:38Excuse me, you've given yourself a massive S and you gave me a teeny R.

0:05:38 > 0:05:41And Sami's not the only one feeling apprehensive.

0:05:41 > 0:05:45If they move out, we've got each other and we'll have to talk to each other.

0:05:45 > 0:05:47SHE LAUGHS

0:05:47 > 0:05:51You can move out as well. THEY LAUGH

0:05:51 > 0:05:55So from a mummy's boy...to a daddy's boy.

0:05:55 > 0:05:59Essex lad, Liam, is engaged to Manchester girl, Leah.

0:05:59 > 0:06:04The 23-year-olds have lived with his dad, Bill, since Leah moved in five years ago.

0:06:04 > 0:06:07Leah's got the whole lot, she's good looking.

0:06:07 > 0:06:09- Liam's really lovely.- She's got a nice body.

0:06:09 > 0:06:13- I really don't know quite where I'd be without him sometimes. - SHE LAUGHS

0:06:13 > 0:06:16Ah! It was love at first sight when they met through online dating.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18I sent him a message.

0:06:18 > 0:06:22Typically, when you're that age, it was something like, "Hi, babe, you're well fit."

0:06:22 > 0:06:26She looked like a model, but she e-mailed and said that I was really good looking.

0:06:26 > 0:06:28And I thought, "She must be fake."

0:06:28 > 0:06:33And then I got a nice little message back saying that he thought I was too beautiful, I couldn't be real.

0:06:35 > 0:06:37And we started chatting on MSN and that.

0:06:37 > 0:06:41We kind of decided to meet up, so he drove up to Manchester.

0:06:41 > 0:06:46We started actually going out that day, you know, so I was obviously doing something right.

0:06:46 > 0:06:50A year later, Leah left behind her family in Manchester

0:06:50 > 0:06:53and moved 200 miles south to Braintree, Essex.

0:06:53 > 0:06:55It was kind of like a whirlwind romance.

0:06:55 > 0:07:01Which was a good thing, because I don't think I could go any longer without her being closer.

0:07:01 > 0:07:05Since then, Leah's built a life, got a job, and is working on a singing career.

0:07:05 > 0:07:10# You got to get up and try, try, try

0:07:10 > 0:07:14# Got to get up and try, try, try! #

0:07:14 > 0:07:18The trouble is, this relationship has three people in it.

0:07:18 > 0:07:20Liam wouldn't be Liam without his dad.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23- How are you?- You all right?- Yeah.

0:07:23 > 0:07:27I think we are really close, as close as we're ever going to get.

0:07:27 > 0:07:32We both rely on each other. You know, sometimes he needs my help, sometimes I need his help.

0:07:32 > 0:07:34Liam calls his dad for anything and everything.

0:07:34 > 0:07:37He keeps me informed of every little thing.

0:07:37 > 0:07:40Liam would call his dad if he trod on a snail.

0:07:40 > 0:07:43If I need someone to talk to, he's in the next room.

0:07:43 > 0:07:47If I don't want to be chatting with Leah, you know, I've got my dad to chat to.

0:07:47 > 0:07:51But swapping life with her parents and two sisters for Liam and Bill

0:07:51 > 0:07:54has been quite the change for Leah.

0:07:54 > 0:07:58You can't just kind of go, help, I've got like a bad hair day,

0:07:58 > 0:08:00or bad make-up going on, or can you fix a nail?

0:08:00 > 0:08:04It just doesn't happen. So, yeah, it's really difficult.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06Though despite it being Bill's house,

0:08:06 > 0:08:12it's Liam who rules the roost, as this professional care worker finds it hard to switch off.

0:08:12 > 0:08:16I'm constantly, like, trying to be the sort of like the boss of the house

0:08:16 > 0:08:19and making sure everything goes all right and smoothly.

0:08:19 > 0:08:20I'm a bit of a worrier as well.

0:08:20 > 0:08:25Liam's extremely bossy, but in a really endearing way.

0:08:25 > 0:08:28If...if that even works.

0:08:28 > 0:08:31He wants everything perfect all the time.

0:08:31 > 0:08:36- It's still shrunk.- And if he sees something that's not quite right,

0:08:36 > 0:08:41even if it's only a sugar grain on the kitchen side, he will pull you up about it.

0:08:41 > 0:08:46I am definitely the boss of the house, not bossy, but I'm definitely the boss of the house.

0:08:46 > 0:08:48But now it's Leah calling the shots.

0:08:48 > 0:08:53After five years of living at Bill's, she wants her independence.

0:08:53 > 0:08:56We need to get out of the home...

0:08:56 > 0:09:01and just sort of experience living, literally, just by ourselves

0:09:01 > 0:09:04and not having to worry about anybody else.

0:09:04 > 0:09:09So we're going to give them the chance to try living in a place of their own for a week,

0:09:09 > 0:09:12but this time it's in Leah's home town of Manchester.

0:09:16 > 0:09:19I never, ever thought that I would leave Manchester.

0:09:19 > 0:09:25And me and my mum and my sisters are massively close, I do still miss them terribly.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27However, there's just one problem.

0:09:27 > 0:09:32Change is quite a hard thing for me, because I like...I like to do things that I know.

0:09:32 > 0:09:35And so Liam really doesn't want to leave Essex.

0:09:35 > 0:09:38Moving away to a strange city, you know, is a massive change.

0:09:38 > 0:09:40I'd find it quite difficult.

0:09:40 > 0:09:43I think it'll be great for him, toughen him up a bit.

0:09:43 > 0:09:45I reckon being that far away from my dad is going to be hard.

0:09:45 > 0:09:49Just knock some of his southern fairyness out of him, really.

0:09:49 > 0:09:51I'm quite scared to do it.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56So while you can't take Essex out of the boy,

0:09:56 > 0:09:58can Leah take the boy out of Essex?

0:09:58 > 0:10:02If Liam could, he would stay as close as possible to his dad,

0:10:02 > 0:10:05- but he doesn't have a choice in the matter. - SHE LAUGHS

0:10:07 > 0:10:10So we've got two boys hanging on to the apron strings.

0:10:10 > 0:10:13- Did you do my room?- I did, love, yeah.

0:10:13 > 0:10:16I reckon being that far away from my dad is going to be hard.

0:10:16 > 0:10:19One mummy's boy and his feisty Scouse girlfriend.

0:10:19 > 0:10:22He's going to have to grow up and stand on his own two feet.

0:10:22 > 0:10:26And a play-it-safe daddy's boy being dragged away by his adventurous missus.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30If Liam could he would stay as close as possible to his dad,

0:10:30 > 0:10:32but he doesn't have a choice in the matter.

0:10:32 > 0:10:36Will the ladies win, or will the boys run home with their tails between their legs?

0:10:36 > 0:10:38You're such a liar.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39Oh, my God! Why are you making me look like a dick?

0:10:39 > 0:10:43- Has someone stolen £20?- I haven't taken the 20 pounds!

0:10:46 > 0:10:51We are giving both couples the money they need to try renting a place of their own for a week,

0:10:51 > 0:10:55but it's the same budget they would have if they were going it alone for real.

0:10:55 > 0:10:59Now, both couples are working out how much that is.

0:10:59 > 0:11:0277 on bills. God!

0:11:02 > 0:11:07And it looks like living at home means they can spend like there's no tomorrow.

0:11:07 > 0:11:09Leah's weakness is the make-up counter.

0:11:09 > 0:11:14My money would go on things like eyelashes, nails.

0:11:14 > 0:11:17Sometimes I see the odd receipt and I say, "Leah, what's that for?"

0:11:17 > 0:11:20Make-up, hair products, things like that.

0:11:20 > 0:11:23- We argue about money, I cause it. - HE LAUGHS

0:11:23 > 0:11:26So, yeah, I tend to spend quite a lot of money.

0:11:26 > 0:11:29While Sami and Roshelle are suckers for the sun.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33We have so much spare money, we spend it on, like, going away.

0:11:33 > 0:11:36- We've had six holidays in the last...- Year.

0:11:36 > 0:11:40They went to Marrakech. May, they went to Tunisia for a week.

0:11:40 > 0:11:43We're going away again in December, aren't we?

0:11:43 > 0:11:48They like spending money on holidays, which is...which is fine.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51Liam and Leah earn £700 a week between them,

0:11:51 > 0:11:55so Mr Sensible, Liam, thinks they need to make some savings.

0:11:55 > 0:11:58Maybe you can cut back on getting your nails done and your eyelashes?

0:11:58 > 0:12:01- You don't really need them, you've got nice eyelashes anyway.- I do need 'em.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05Your nails are growing now, so that's another thing you can stop doing, just paint them yourself.

0:12:05 > 0:12:08How much does that save you? Have a look here.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11It'd save you 75 quid.

0:12:12 > 0:12:16Sami and Roshelle work out that their joint income is £470 a week,

0:12:16 > 0:12:21so they're sticking to a tight budget as they head off on a house hunt.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24- Are you excited?- Yeah. I hope we like it.

0:12:24 > 0:12:30They cleverly bag a bargain and rent this two-bedder off a family friend for just £110 a week.

0:12:30 > 0:12:33- It's quite nice, isn't it?- It's lovely, isn't it? I love it.

0:12:33 > 0:12:35Liam and Leah go house hunting too,

0:12:35 > 0:12:39and like this couple's first encounter it's happening online. Very modern.

0:12:39 > 0:12:44I reckon up Manchester we'll be able to get a lot more for our money than down south.

0:12:44 > 0:12:46You can get more for your money, yeah, definitely.

0:12:46 > 0:12:52Just put in Manchester. Probably the perfect property would be a minimum two bedrooms, really.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55- It's disgusting, isn't it? - SHE LAUGHS

0:12:55 > 0:12:56A nice garden for the dogs.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01Sounds great, but on the £200 a week they can afford,

0:13:01 > 0:13:04a one-bedroom, no garden and no pets is looking more likely.

0:13:04 > 0:13:09I did think we could probably get more up north, but from what I've seen, I don't know.

0:13:09 > 0:13:15Their new home being 200 miles away, Liam and Leah have to make their arrangements online,

0:13:15 > 0:13:19but before they know it the virtual becomes the actual.

0:13:19 > 0:13:21I'm really looking forward to seeing my family.

0:13:21 > 0:13:23Hopefully, have them round for dinner or something.

0:13:23 > 0:13:28- And for both couples it is time to get moving.- That'll do.

0:13:28 > 0:13:31- You are useless.- What?!

0:13:31 > 0:13:35In Essex, the boy who hates change is facing up to his fears,

0:13:35 > 0:13:39a new place with no space in a city hundreds of miles from home.

0:13:39 > 0:13:44Leah's just chucking anything and everything in suitcases.

0:13:44 > 0:13:49And they're going to have to leave behind their surrogate kids, Sway and Bentley.

0:13:49 > 0:13:53- Mmm!- Not to mention Liam's dear old dad.

0:13:53 > 0:13:58I don't think they realise the reality of, you know, sort of actually setting up on their own.

0:13:58 > 0:14:02I think they'll survive, but they will have a little shock.

0:14:02 > 0:14:07So how will Liam get on being so far out of his comfort zone and without Bill?

0:14:07 > 0:14:10HORN See you later. Yes, they've gone!

0:14:10 > 0:14:12HE LAUGHS Yes!

0:14:13 > 0:14:17And in Bristol, Sami and Roshelle are going too.

0:14:17 > 0:14:19- TAPE SCREECHES - That noise is driving me insane.

0:14:19 > 0:14:22And while there's the odd anxious moment...

0:14:22 > 0:14:26I hope I'm not moving this for no reason and you sack me off after a week.

0:14:26 > 0:14:31This move couldn't be more organised, as Roshelle is in charge

0:14:31 > 0:14:33and she's been preparing for this day for months.

0:14:33 > 0:14:38My mum and dad always told me to buy things on payday, only little things,

0:14:38 > 0:14:42so then in the end you had loads of stuff and that's what we did.

0:14:42 > 0:14:48We've also got two sofa beds, also got our bowls, our pots and pans.

0:14:48 > 0:14:53Not fans of packing lightly, I think they've got a bit carried away.

0:14:53 > 0:14:56- This is my fan, all right? - This WAS your fan!

0:14:56 > 0:14:59It was my fan...and you took it.

0:14:59 > 0:15:03And Sami's klepto side is the least of Roshelle's worries.

0:15:03 > 0:15:06I'm worried about doing all this and doing it

0:15:06 > 0:15:08for nothing in case Sami doesn't like it.

0:15:08 > 0:15:11And I'm scared that he's just going to run back and then all this

0:15:11 > 0:15:13hard work and all the money we've spent over the last

0:15:13 > 0:15:17couple of months is just going to go to waste.

0:15:17 > 0:15:21Roshelle's not the only one with a lot on her mind.

0:15:21 > 0:15:23Liam and Leah have arrived in Manchester

0:15:23 > 0:15:25and Liam's northern adventure is off to a bad start.

0:15:26 > 0:15:29- What?- Given me a ticket, haven't they?

0:15:29 > 0:15:31Only a few minutes late.

0:15:31 > 0:15:35Just don't dwell on your fine. Just...

0:15:35 > 0:15:38Let's concentrate on the move and...

0:15:38 > 0:15:42Don't worry, babe. I'll-I'll help you out as much as I can.

0:15:42 > 0:15:47With Liam in charge of the budget, a £25 loss is an early blow.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49Not a cloud in the sky.

0:15:54 > 0:15:58As long as they can find the flat easily, then everything'll be fine.

0:15:58 > 0:16:02- What does it say on the thing? - 278. I'm only on 100 and something.

0:16:02 > 0:16:06We've got a parking ticket, we've got no place to sleep...

0:16:06 > 0:16:08And they say these things come in threes.

0:16:09 > 0:16:13- There's no TV.- Yeah, it's really nice.- Yeah, there's no TV, though.

0:16:14 > 0:16:18Oh, dear. We'll have to make our own amusement then, won't we?

0:16:18 > 0:16:21Yay, like a fun-packed tour of their new home,

0:16:21 > 0:16:23which shouldn't take that long, actually.

0:16:23 > 0:16:25Bedroom's not too bad, Leah.

0:16:25 > 0:16:27It's nice, isn't it, on the whole?

0:16:27 > 0:16:30- Oh, we've got a washing machine. - Have we?

0:16:30 > 0:16:33- We've got a washing machine. - Is there a TV in there?

0:16:34 > 0:16:36No. Light bulb.

0:16:36 > 0:16:39- I'd rather a TV. - Always need a light bulb.

0:16:40 > 0:16:44While there's no light at the end of Liam's dark tunnel...

0:16:46 > 0:16:49..back in Bristol, there's a brighter outlook for Roshelle

0:16:49 > 0:16:52and Sami on their move day.

0:16:52 > 0:16:55- See you, Roshelle.- Good luck with the, er, unpacking. Bye.

0:16:55 > 0:16:57Thank you.

0:16:58 > 0:17:03Roshelle quickly distracts Sami from missing his mum by talking money.

0:17:03 > 0:17:0820 quid for leccy, £20 for council tax, £20 petrol...

0:17:08 > 0:17:13After rent and bills, they're left with just £200 a week for groceries,

0:17:13 > 0:17:17going out and one other expense Roshelle hadn't even considered.

0:17:17 > 0:17:19I just realised something.

0:17:19 > 0:17:23Please tell me that my fag money isn't coming out of this.

0:17:23 > 0:17:27- Yeah, it does. - I didn't think.

0:17:27 > 0:17:31Oh, we definitely can't afford that. That's like £30 a week.

0:17:32 > 0:17:34Now I'm going to quit. I'm definitely...

0:17:34 > 0:17:36I can't afford that.

0:17:36 > 0:17:38I bet you'll buy a packet during next week.

0:17:38 > 0:17:41I'm going to quit on Monday, so I'm going to quit Sunday night,

0:17:41 > 0:17:43have no fags. If I've got fags left over,

0:17:43 > 0:17:47I'll happily let you chuck them over that balcony. That's a deal.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50With just two days left until Roshelle kicks the habit

0:17:50 > 0:17:53for good, she decides to make the most of the time she has left.

0:17:53 > 0:17:56Part of me wishes I'd never made that deal.

0:17:56 > 0:17:59As bad as it sounds, I'm not doing it for my health, I'm not, and I'm

0:17:59 > 0:18:03not doing it for anything else apart from I want this to work.

0:18:04 > 0:18:08But will Roshelle's love of freedom win over her love of fags?

0:18:08 > 0:18:11£8 for a packet of 20 fags, probably last me about a day,

0:18:11 > 0:18:13maybe more.

0:18:13 > 0:18:18So we'll say eight times 365, that's nearly three grand a year.

0:18:18 > 0:18:21Three grand a year. I could have my own place in two years.

0:18:21 > 0:18:24While Roshelle is thinking long-term,

0:18:24 > 0:18:28Liam is trying to think positive and is taking charge of the money.

0:18:28 > 0:18:33£304.55 is what we've got left for all our food and everything

0:18:33 > 0:18:35- and that.- Yeah.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37It's not bad, you know. It's quite a healthy...

0:18:37 > 0:18:41You got your fine though as well for the ticket, the car parking ticket.

0:18:42 > 0:18:44Yeah, not helping, Leah.

0:18:45 > 0:18:51Now, after rent, bills and fines they have £280 for the week and,

0:18:51 > 0:18:54to make matters worse, Leah's set her heart on a big family get

0:18:54 > 0:18:57together, a three-course meal for 12 people.

0:18:59 > 0:19:02- I can't believe it.- It's a whole page just for one meal.

0:19:02 > 0:19:04Yeah, but it's like...

0:19:04 > 0:19:06It's crazy, all these ingredients.

0:19:06 > 0:19:11Just because they're coming round, you can't go crazy on a bloody meal.

0:19:11 > 0:19:15I'm not, I'm... I just want to make a nice meal for everybody.

0:19:15 > 0:19:17Despairing at Leah's grand plans,

0:19:17 > 0:19:22Liam attempts to take charge of the shopping trip.

0:19:22 > 0:19:25What about these ones here? They've probably got more in them.

0:19:25 > 0:19:27You're not going to need two bags for one cannelloni.

0:19:27 > 0:19:31- For... For the amount of people that I'm cooking for? I will.- Really?

0:19:31 > 0:19:32Yeah, trust me.

0:19:32 > 0:19:38But Leah isn't scrimping and they spend nearly £180, two thirds

0:19:38 > 0:19:44of their total budget, leaving them with just £100 to last the week.

0:19:44 > 0:19:47I've never done such a big food shop in my entire life.

0:19:48 > 0:19:52So, while Liam and Leah are coming home with the entire supermarket,

0:19:52 > 0:19:56Sami and Roshelle are at least keeping their shopping list simple.

0:19:56 > 0:19:59Chicken... Well, we love chicken, so anything like chicken burgers,

0:19:59 > 0:20:03chicken strips, chicken and all that, so chicken.

0:20:03 > 0:20:06How about on Thursday we make a curry for your family and that?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08Maybe chicken curry. What do you think, Sami?

0:20:08 > 0:20:10I'm asking whether you want it. I don't know what you want.

0:20:10 > 0:20:14- I don't...- You just expect me to do it all.- I like what you like.

0:20:14 > 0:20:16Well, you need to speak up a little bit what you want.

0:20:16 > 0:20:18I don't know what you want. I can't read your mind.

0:20:18 > 0:20:21And this is Roshelle before she gives up smoking.

0:20:21 > 0:20:25I want you to have your own opinion. It's like you're being a yes man.

0:20:25 > 0:20:26- No, it's not.- It is.

0:20:26 > 0:20:29- It's not.- It is.- It's not. - I want you to have your own.

0:20:29 > 0:20:31Cos I'd say no if I didn't want it.

0:20:31 > 0:20:34That's not being a yes man, that's being a no man.

0:20:34 > 0:20:36Used to his mum making the decisions,

0:20:36 > 0:20:38Sami eventually contributes.

0:20:38 > 0:20:42- I need a fag. - Think I need one, too.

0:20:42 > 0:20:45Not content with bickering, they are now competing

0:20:45 > 0:20:48and have put a wager on how much they'll spend.

0:20:48 > 0:20:51I reckon £87.42.

0:20:51 > 0:20:54And I'll say £74.

0:20:54 > 0:20:56Whoever's closest, you can be my

0:20:56 > 0:20:59slave for the night and bring me every drink when I ask for it.

0:20:59 > 0:21:03And if you're right, then I'll bring you every drink tonight.

0:21:03 > 0:21:07- OK.- Deal.- Deal. - Shake on that.

0:21:07 > 0:21:09And with that, the supermarket challenge begins.

0:21:13 > 0:21:1525 quid and we haven't even finished the first aisle yet,

0:21:15 > 0:21:18- or got hardly any of that. - It's bad, isn't it?

0:21:18 > 0:21:21With a love of junk food and a barbecue for half a dozen

0:21:21 > 0:21:23friends tonight, the trolley fills up and up.

0:21:24 > 0:21:28Should have definitely got a bigger trolley, definitely.

0:21:32 > 0:21:36So, while Roshelle guessed they'd spend £74...

0:21:36 > 0:21:37I hate shopping.

0:21:37 > 0:21:43..and Sami £87, the actual total is a little bit higher.

0:21:43 > 0:21:46I might just quit, quit smoking tonight actually.

0:21:46 > 0:21:50I can't wait another day, it's costing me a fortune.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53See, I won the bet, yeah, as I thought I would.

0:21:53 > 0:21:57Ha-ha! So, Roshelle's now my slave.

0:21:57 > 0:22:00Up in Manchester, Leah is also slaving away,

0:22:00 > 0:22:03making the two-hour commute to her job in Essex,

0:22:03 > 0:22:06whilst Liam has a nice little breakfast

0:22:06 > 0:22:08eating out of a salad bowl...

0:22:09 > 0:22:11..followed by a call home.

0:22:11 > 0:22:14What can I do for you? What's this call for?

0:22:14 > 0:22:17I'm just ringing up for a general, er, chat, that's all.

0:22:17 > 0:22:20After all, he hasn't spoken to his dad in hours.

0:22:20 > 0:22:24..grass cut. I had to clear up all the dog's mess, didn't I?

0:22:24 > 0:22:27They're going to do that. They're dogs, aren't they?

0:22:27 > 0:22:29Don't phone or text with anything else for me to do.

0:22:29 > 0:22:32I've got enough to do, thank you.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36Though, despite appearances, it's also a busy day for Liam.

0:22:36 > 0:22:39As Leah's manager, he's lined up a surprise for the end

0:22:39 > 0:22:43of the week, Leah's first ever gig in Manchester.

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- Hello, nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too.

0:22:45 > 0:22:46Do you want to follow me?

0:22:46 > 0:22:48I definitely think it's going to be exciting for Leah's

0:22:48 > 0:22:51family to see her perform, you know, in her home town.

0:22:51 > 0:22:53- Leah will be on stage at nine o'clock.- Yeah.

0:22:53 > 0:22:54She'll have a half an hour set.

0:22:54 > 0:22:56I'm really excited about the venue.

0:22:56 > 0:22:59I'm excited that Leah's family are able to come and watch her perform.

0:22:59 > 0:23:01You know, it's a really classy venue, you know,

0:23:01 > 0:23:04and I definitely think she'll be really excited.

0:23:04 > 0:23:06While that's still a few days away right now,

0:23:06 > 0:23:09Leah is back from work and there's a family meal to think about.

0:23:09 > 0:23:12And me being me, I've decided that it'd be a great idea to cook

0:23:12 > 0:23:14a three-course dinner.

0:23:15 > 0:23:17Hopefully it'll all go smoothly.

0:23:17 > 0:23:19And while Leah's taking it all in her stride,

0:23:19 > 0:23:23Liam's turned into, well, a total stress monkey.

0:23:23 > 0:23:27But, Leah, I'm cleaning bloody bowls with nice stuff

0:23:27 > 0:23:29and you're putting onion over this towel.

0:23:29 > 0:23:31Leah, I tell you, wash your hands next time.

0:23:31 > 0:23:33Don't bloody put them in here.

0:23:33 > 0:23:36Liam doesn't tend to handle stress brilliantly.

0:23:36 > 0:23:39Things will annoy him and wind him up quite quickly.

0:23:40 > 0:23:42Oh, my God.

0:23:42 > 0:23:44Leah, that's in your hair.

0:23:44 > 0:23:46Where? No, it's not.

0:23:46 > 0:23:47Yes, it is, it's in your hair.

0:23:47 > 0:23:50I do get stressed about the silliest little things, which

0:23:50 > 0:23:52I understand it's pathetic, but I just do.

0:23:52 > 0:23:55Hopefully, when we do get our own place, you won't be doing this

0:23:55 > 0:23:57three-course meal every bloody day.

0:23:57 > 0:23:59So, you've obviously got to learn from this, Leah.

0:23:59 > 0:24:02You've obviously got to shut up.

0:24:02 > 0:24:06But Liam's biggest cause of anxiety, trying to work out how to

0:24:06 > 0:24:10pick up five members of Leah's family when his car only fits four.

0:24:10 > 0:24:13Mum, Lee, Cam, Kurt and Brendan.

0:24:13 > 0:24:17That's five people, Leah. So, you want me to break the law, do you?

0:24:17 > 0:24:20No. You're going to have to ring Camela.

0:24:20 > 0:24:23- It's not my problem. You're the one that's sorting out...- I'm cooking.

0:24:23 > 0:24:26You're the one that's arranging all these people to come along, Leah,

0:24:26 > 0:24:28but you don't think about the travel, do you?

0:24:28 > 0:24:29Why can't you just help me out and call them?

0:24:29 > 0:24:31I don't understand what the problem is.

0:24:31 > 0:24:33Cos I'm about to have my Crunchy Nut.

0:24:33 > 0:24:36Well, a mid-afternoon bowl of cereal is the most important

0:24:36 > 0:24:38meal of the day, Leah.

0:24:38 > 0:24:41You wanted to hold this dinner, Leah, so sort it.

0:24:41 > 0:24:44Shut up, you. Moan, moan, moan.

0:24:45 > 0:24:48And now he's finished his Crunchy Nut, Liam's calmed down

0:24:48 > 0:24:51and he's happy to pick up Leah's family.

0:24:51 > 0:24:53- I'll see you in a bit. - See you in a bit.

0:24:53 > 0:24:58He's not a calm person. He gets very stressed very easy.

0:24:58 > 0:25:02He'll be all right once he gets here. I think he's just stressing now,

0:25:02 > 0:25:04but once he gets here he'll be absolutely fine.

0:25:04 > 0:25:07Though, right now this day isn't getting any better. Oh-oh.

0:25:07 > 0:25:12FIRE ALARM BLARES I can't get it to stop.

0:25:12 > 0:25:15Losing the will to live.

0:25:17 > 0:25:19Hello.

0:25:19 > 0:25:20Hello, munchkin.

0:25:22 > 0:25:26But somehow Leah manages to have three courses for 12

0:25:26 > 0:25:27people all ready to go.

0:25:29 > 0:25:31Thankfully the menu's a hit.

0:25:31 > 0:25:35It's nice that everyone's enjoying my food, really.

0:25:35 > 0:25:37And now even Liam's in a good mood.

0:25:37 > 0:25:40- How you liking it in Manchester, Liam, anyway?- It's rubbish.

0:25:40 > 0:25:42Rubbish?

0:25:42 > 0:25:43How dare you say that?

0:25:43 > 0:25:47I said it, deal with it. No, it's, it's good. It's good.

0:25:47 > 0:25:50- Thinking of moving back up then, are you?- Not yet.

0:25:50 > 0:25:53- Not yet. - Never say never.

0:25:54 > 0:25:58After such a nice family day, Leah's even more aware of what

0:25:58 > 0:25:59she gave up for Liam.

0:26:02 > 0:26:04I mean, I left everyone in my home to come with you,

0:26:04 > 0:26:07it weren't a guarantee. You weren't safe.

0:26:07 > 0:26:09Yeah, but you... No, not at all, but you was young and

0:26:09 > 0:26:12you were the one that suggested it that, you know, that they

0:26:12 > 0:26:15should make the effort. That's in my... That's my opinion.

0:26:16 > 0:26:20And it's give, give, give from the girls all round as Roshelle

0:26:20 > 0:26:23is Sami's slave for the night, thanks to the shopping bet.

0:26:24 > 0:26:27Can you get me a drink cos, you know, you're my servant and all that?

0:26:27 > 0:26:30Yeah, OK.

0:26:30 > 0:26:33- I'll have a Strongbow, please. - Do you want a glass?

0:26:33 > 0:26:35Yeah, with ice.

0:26:37 > 0:26:39- Thank you. - Enjoy.

0:26:42 > 0:26:44Like Leah and Liam, they are keen to play host

0:26:44 > 0:26:46in their very own home.

0:26:46 > 0:26:49And while Sami's relishing his role as man of the house...

0:26:49 > 0:26:53Roshelle, where's my drink? Can you grab it for me, please?

0:26:53 > 0:26:55- Where is it? - Should be inside somewhere.

0:26:55 > 0:26:57They're both loving their freedom.

0:26:58 > 0:27:02- Here you go. - Thank you.

0:27:02 > 0:27:04Feels really good to be the host of our own party.

0:27:04 > 0:27:06It's just, feel that sense of, accomplishment,

0:27:06 > 0:27:09but you just don't want things to go wrong, do you?

0:27:09 > 0:27:12- Sense of independency though, isn't it?- As well, yeah.

0:27:12 > 0:27:15The only downside at playing host has put a serious

0:27:15 > 0:27:17dent in their budget.

0:27:17 > 0:27:20It's been a very expensive day today - we spent £120 on food.

0:27:20 > 0:27:23Another £20 on drinks and ice.

0:27:23 > 0:27:24- And stuff like that.- But...

0:27:24 > 0:27:28- it's definitely been worth it, would you say?- Yeah, definitely.

0:27:28 > 0:27:31But with just £20 left for the rest of the week,

0:27:31 > 0:27:33they might find the good times stop here.

0:27:36 > 0:27:40And in Manchester, Leah is relishing her road test, too.

0:27:40 > 0:27:42In fact, the only person who's homesick is Liam.

0:27:44 > 0:27:49So, he's going to drive 200 miles just to drop his fiancee at work.

0:27:49 > 0:27:51Love you loads.

0:27:51 > 0:27:54Oh, and while he's here...

0:27:54 > 0:27:57It's nice to see my dad and that. You know, I love my dad a lot,

0:27:57 > 0:27:58do you know what I mean?

0:27:58 > 0:28:00And I'm always with him, so it feels weird

0:28:00 > 0:28:02to be without him, so it'll be nice.

0:28:02 > 0:28:06But what Liam doesn't know is Bill has been keeping his eye on him.

0:28:06 > 0:28:08There's no TV.

0:28:09 > 0:28:12I always thought I wanted to live back in Manchester.

0:28:12 > 0:28:15It just makes it harder when I see my family.

0:28:15 > 0:28:17She's done it. Why don't he do it for a few years

0:28:17 > 0:28:21while they're still young? Got no kids or anything.

0:28:21 > 0:28:24Give it a try and decide what they're going to do.

0:28:24 > 0:28:27Nice thought, but right now Liam can't even last four days

0:28:27 > 0:28:29without seeing his dad.

0:28:29 > 0:28:30You all right, Dad?

0:28:30 > 0:28:32- Hello, Liam, you all right? - Yeah, you all right?

0:28:32 > 0:28:35And he clearly can't use a washing machine.

0:28:35 > 0:28:36Oh, I thought...

0:28:36 > 0:28:39Give you something to do cos I know you ain't been doing much.

0:28:39 > 0:28:41Oh, I thought perhaps you'd brought me a present.

0:28:41 > 0:28:44The biggest gift Liam could give his dad is an empty house,

0:28:44 > 0:28:46but is there any chance of that happening?

0:28:46 > 0:28:49What are your early thoughts about...?

0:28:49 > 0:28:51What, being up Manchester?

0:28:51 > 0:28:53Perhaps buying one in Manchester,

0:28:53 > 0:28:56knowing that they're going to be a lot cheaper anyway?

0:28:56 > 0:28:59- I still would prefer to live down here.- Yeah.

0:28:59 > 0:29:02I think he worries so much about me that, you know,

0:29:02 > 0:29:05if I was to say, "Look, Liam, I'll move to Manchester."

0:29:05 > 0:29:08I'm sure he'd say, "Oh, come on then, Dad, let's give it a go."

0:29:10 > 0:29:13While Liam contemplates life away from his dad...

0:29:15 > 0:29:18..Roshelle and Sami are facing life away from Sami's parents,

0:29:18 > 0:29:20and look what happens.

0:29:20 > 0:29:25They threw a party, the flat's a tip and there are two extra bodies.

0:29:26 > 0:29:29While Sami takes the last 20 quid to buy washing-up liquid

0:29:29 > 0:29:33and Roshelle's last ever packet of cigarettes, she's cooking breakfast.

0:29:34 > 0:29:38I feel like crap, if I'm honest, and I can't be bothered doing

0:29:38 > 0:29:40nothing today.

0:29:40 > 0:29:42And I don't even want to clean.

0:29:42 > 0:29:45Have you seen the massive pile of stuff we've got to clean?

0:29:45 > 0:29:49Yeah, we have. Er, good job Sami's back with the washing-up powder.

0:29:49 > 0:29:51Why did you buy that?

0:29:52 > 0:29:55I didn't ask for that. I asked for washing-up liquid.

0:29:57 > 0:29:59I can get it back. I've got the receipt.

0:29:59 > 0:30:03I asked you to go and get washing-up liquid, babe, and some fags,

0:30:03 > 0:30:07and you came back with detergent for the washing machine.

0:30:07 > 0:30:10I didn't think we had any and it was on offer, so...

0:30:10 > 0:30:11- We've got some, babe.- I know.

0:30:11 > 0:30:13Every time I ask you to go and get something,

0:30:13 > 0:30:17- you get the opposite thing. - I'll be back, don't worry.

0:30:17 > 0:30:21Right, just keep that. Sami, no. Keep it cos, if it's on offer,

0:30:21 > 0:30:24just keep it for stock. But can you just, next time, can you just,

0:30:24 > 0:30:26what I ask you to get, will you just get?

0:30:26 > 0:30:28We're on a tight budget. You can't go,

0:30:28 > 0:30:31"Oh, cos it's on offer we'll just grab it."

0:30:31 > 0:30:33After the barbecue and Sami's shopping,

0:30:33 > 0:30:37the budget is almost gone, which is not helping Roshelle's mood.

0:30:37 > 0:30:41I don't help cos I'm hungover and tired, and I'm stressing out

0:30:41 > 0:30:44because I don't know how the oven works and I need a fag.

0:30:44 > 0:30:47But it's not the point. He shouldn't have brought detergent back

0:30:47 > 0:30:53cos now we're £3 down, £3 towards fags, and he moans at me.

0:30:53 > 0:30:56Eventually, breakfast is served.

0:30:56 > 0:30:57There you go.

0:30:57 > 0:31:01And Roshelle has her fags, but the overspending doesn't end there...

0:31:03 > 0:31:06..as today marks Sami and Roshelle's annual visit

0:31:06 > 0:31:08to The Bristol Balloon Festival.

0:31:12 > 0:31:13I want some of this.

0:31:13 > 0:31:16Look how amazing they look.

0:31:16 > 0:31:20And before long they've parted company with another 40 quid.

0:31:20 > 0:31:25I'm a happy man now. I've got my food and I'm ready to go.

0:31:25 > 0:31:27Which means they've now blown the budget

0:31:27 > 0:31:30and are actually spending the bills money.

0:31:30 > 0:31:34- Is that nice? - Oh, God, heavenly.

0:31:37 > 0:31:41I'm going to get another one. Joke.

0:31:41 > 0:31:45Though, right now, Roshelle's got bigger things on her mind.

0:31:45 > 0:31:47- Is that your last one? - Yeah.

0:31:49 > 0:31:52Oh, I don't want to. No, I've got to.

0:31:54 > 0:31:56Roshelle's biggest concern,

0:31:56 > 0:31:59the impact giving up will have on the relationship.

0:31:59 > 0:32:04Don't want to stop smoking because, um, I get stressed dead easy,

0:32:04 > 0:32:06like all night I am quite an angry bird.

0:32:07 > 0:32:09You are an angry bird.

0:32:09 > 0:32:12And what happens if I don't have a fag in the morning?

0:32:12 > 0:32:13You're narky.

0:32:13 > 0:32:16So that's why I don't want to cos I don't want me

0:32:16 > 0:32:17and him to fall out because of it.

0:32:18 > 0:32:22But given the £3,000 a year they're about to save,

0:32:22 > 0:32:25Roshelle's hoping this is a gamble worth taking.

0:32:25 > 0:32:26Yay!

0:32:27 > 0:32:29There we go, that's it.

0:32:32 > 0:32:36Back in Manchester and Liam's got money on his mind, too.

0:32:36 > 0:32:39If he's to make this move permanent, he'll need a job.

0:32:39 > 0:32:41- Come on in. - Hello, you all right?

0:32:41 > 0:32:44- Liam, is it? Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you, too.

0:32:44 > 0:32:46I'm Julie. I'm the Assistant Manager here.

0:32:46 > 0:32:49- So, well, thank you for coming to spend the day with us.- It's OK.

0:32:51 > 0:32:53Keen to continue his work as a carer,

0:32:53 > 0:32:56he's volunteering at a local day centre for the elderly,

0:32:56 > 0:32:58although the job description is a bit different.

0:32:58 > 0:33:02- I think this afternoon we're going to be playing bingo...- Ah, lovely, yeah.

0:33:02 > 0:33:05- ..so you can get involved in that if you like.- I'll try my best, yeah.

0:33:05 > 0:33:08And that's just one of Liam's responsibilities...

0:33:08 > 0:33:10Seven and five, 75.

0:33:10 > 0:33:14- ..as well as being a bingo caller... - Two and six, 26.

0:33:14 > 0:33:16Bingo.

0:33:16 > 0:33:17..he needs to be a waiter...

0:33:17 > 0:33:20I reckon that's for me and, er, this is for them.

0:33:20 > 0:33:23- ..friend...- We'd make a perfect one, wouldn't we?

0:33:23 > 0:33:25..and most important of all...

0:33:25 > 0:33:29- It's a nice slow one for you this, Liam.- ..dance coach.

0:33:29 > 0:33:32MUSIC: "Jump Around" by House of Pain

0:33:42 > 0:33:45Let's hear it for Liam and Margaret, everybody.

0:33:45 > 0:33:47Yay!

0:33:47 > 0:33:50By day's end Liam not only has the moves,

0:33:50 > 0:33:52he might just have a job as well.

0:33:52 > 0:33:54I've already been told by the boss that, um, there's a few,

0:33:54 > 0:33:57there's a couple of people leaving, so she said,

0:33:57 > 0:34:01"If you move up, there could be a place for you."

0:34:01 > 0:34:03He's just taken to it like a duck to water.

0:34:03 > 0:34:07I just think he's got a really nice way with the clients,

0:34:07 > 0:34:08the way he talks to them.

0:34:08 > 0:34:12He's got a very gentle approach, hasn't he?

0:34:12 > 0:34:15Definitely a place I would consider maybe if

0:34:15 > 0:34:18I moved up to Manchester and that, so you never know.

0:34:19 > 0:34:22With life in Manchester looking up, Liam also wants to do

0:34:22 > 0:34:26something special for Leah, so he's organised her first ever

0:34:26 > 0:34:31singing gig outside of Essex and her family are all on the VIP list.

0:34:31 > 0:34:35It'd mean loads for Leah's family to be there, you know, and it would

0:34:35 > 0:34:40mean a lot for Leah to have her family there to watch her perform.

0:34:40 > 0:34:45Needless to say, Mum, Dad and Leah's sisters are out in force.

0:34:45 > 0:34:49This one's dedicated to my mum. This is one of her favourite songs.

0:34:49 > 0:34:54SHE SINGS A BALLAD

0:35:01 > 0:35:03It's so good to see Leah up north again,

0:35:03 > 0:35:06just to see her on her home turf. It's really good,

0:35:06 > 0:35:09especially with her family round her as well. Brilliant, yeah.

0:35:14 > 0:35:20Really proud and thinking I wish I could see her more, really.

0:35:26 > 0:35:29It's a bit of an emotional experience, you know.

0:35:29 > 0:35:32You think how much that she's grown up and watching her sisters like

0:35:32 > 0:35:36getting all tearful, you know, it's like pretty sweet really, you know.

0:35:44 > 0:35:45Thank you.

0:35:45 > 0:35:48For Leah, tonight has shown her Manchester offers not only

0:35:48 > 0:35:52her family, but it could advance her singing career as well...

0:35:53 > 0:35:55Amazing. Oh.

0:35:55 > 0:35:57You were brilliant.

0:35:57 > 0:35:58Thank you.

0:35:58 > 0:36:01..making her desire to live here stronger by the day.

0:36:05 > 0:36:08But while Leah is sprouting roots in Manchester,

0:36:08 > 0:36:11in Bristol, Roshelle is sprouting horns.

0:36:11 > 0:36:13You lied to me.

0:36:15 > 0:36:18She's been off the fags for a day and Sami's feeling the wrath.

0:36:18 > 0:36:22Their latest barney, Sami said the gas for the barbecue was 40 quid

0:36:22 > 0:36:24when in fact it cost 50 quid.

0:36:24 > 0:36:26I would've said no.

0:36:26 > 0:36:28- It's a barbecue. - 50 quid?

0:36:28 > 0:36:31While it's possible Roshelle is over-reacting...

0:36:31 > 0:36:33Don't ever buy things without my permission now.

0:36:33 > 0:36:35..their budget is in crisis

0:36:35 > 0:36:38and they've now spent nearly all of their bill money.

0:36:38 > 0:36:41The bigger picture is about the money, and the budget and stuff.

0:36:41 > 0:36:43That's what I really got pissy about

0:36:43 > 0:36:45cos I want this to work, I want to prove to people we can do it.

0:36:45 > 0:36:49This week's been expensive without us

0:36:49 > 0:36:51splashing out on things we didn't need.

0:36:51 > 0:36:53She asked me to go out and get gas,

0:36:53 > 0:36:56so there's no way I was coming back without gas.

0:36:56 > 0:36:59What happens if a big bill comes out and he lies to me

0:36:59 > 0:37:02cos he doesn't want to tell me?

0:37:02 > 0:37:06But it turns out Roshelle has more on her mind than barbecue gas...

0:37:08 > 0:37:12..because the next day is her entrance test for the Royal Navy.

0:37:13 > 0:37:16Sami, will you make me some breakfast, please?

0:37:16 > 0:37:17What do you want?

0:37:17 > 0:37:21Poached egg on toast, sausage and beans, like the tin,

0:37:21 > 0:37:23on warm bread.

0:37:23 > 0:37:27In a bid to keep Roshelle happy, today Sami attempts

0:37:27 > 0:37:29his first ever poached egg.

0:37:32 > 0:37:35Never done this, so hoping for the best.

0:37:35 > 0:37:37How do you tell when they're ready?

0:37:37 > 0:37:39I have no clue.

0:37:39 > 0:37:41It was about five minutes ago.

0:37:43 > 0:37:47- Roshelle...- What?

0:37:48 > 0:37:49Have I done it wrong?

0:37:51 > 0:37:54But that's all right, looks like an egg.

0:37:55 > 0:37:59Sami scores zero on the boyfriend scale.

0:37:59 > 0:38:01Can't believe that I've got to make my own breakfast on the day

0:38:01 > 0:38:03of my Navy test.

0:38:03 > 0:38:07I don't even want a poached egg now.

0:38:07 > 0:38:09Don't laugh at me.

0:38:09 > 0:38:11Did you do it wrong as well?

0:38:11 > 0:38:14So she ditches the eggs to get ready.

0:38:14 > 0:38:16Sami's left wondering what just happened.

0:38:16 > 0:38:23Yeah, I was trying to be helpful by cooking her a nice breakfast but

0:38:23 > 0:38:28obviously that went a bit wrong, but the thought of me trying to

0:38:28 > 0:38:35do it for her should be enough for her to realise that I do do a lot.

0:38:35 > 0:38:39Cos I asked you whether you wanted to do the washing up or the cooking.

0:38:39 > 0:38:44I'm saying you won't say thank you for doing it or anything.

0:38:44 > 0:38:47I always say thank you and give you a kiss, you liar.

0:38:49 > 0:38:53No, what I'm saying is you don't recognise me doing this.

0:38:53 > 0:38:55Yeah, I do, all the time.

0:38:55 > 0:39:00It's more like you don't recognise me when I do the things.

0:39:00 > 0:39:03I say thank you every single time.

0:39:03 > 0:39:05You don't recognise it when I cook you dinner

0:39:05 > 0:39:07and then make you lunch.

0:39:09 > 0:39:12Even though Roshelle's being a little calmer

0:39:12 > 0:39:14by the time she heads out the door...

0:39:14 > 0:39:17- Yeah, right, I'll see you later. - See you laters, have fun.- Yeah.

0:39:17 > 0:39:21..she's far from being in a positive frame of mind.

0:39:21 > 0:39:26Feeling very nervous and like I really need a cigarette,

0:39:26 > 0:39:29a strong one, and a drink.

0:39:31 > 0:39:34Bit worried, to be honest, I don't want to fail.

0:39:34 > 0:39:36For Roshelle, getting into the Navy

0:39:36 > 0:39:38has been an ambition since childhood.

0:39:38 > 0:39:39Take a seat.

0:39:41 > 0:39:43And coming from a military family,

0:39:43 > 0:39:45she wants to carry on that tradition.

0:39:45 > 0:39:47Roshelle Clark, please, come on in.

0:39:49 > 0:39:53So now she's feeling the pressure as her future in the military

0:39:53 > 0:39:55all hangs on just one exam.

0:39:55 > 0:39:57If you are not sure of an answer,

0:39:57 > 0:40:00mark the choice that is your best guess.

0:40:00 > 0:40:03Turn over the page of your question books and begin now.

0:40:09 > 0:40:12Meanwhile, Sami's decided he wants everything to be perfect for when

0:40:12 > 0:40:14Roshelle gets back.

0:40:14 > 0:40:15Yeah, giving it a little brush

0:40:15 > 0:40:17to make it look a little bit better.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22And the dog doesn't like it.

0:40:24 > 0:40:26Not only is he cleaning for the first time,

0:40:26 > 0:40:31he's also trying cooking again, keeping it simple this time.

0:40:31 > 0:40:35Oven-cooked in ten minutes, that'll do me.

0:40:35 > 0:40:37And when Roshelle gets home with her results,

0:40:37 > 0:40:40Sami and the dog are waiting faithfully at the door.

0:40:40 > 0:40:42Hello!

0:40:44 > 0:40:45How did you do, then?

0:40:48 > 0:40:51- I failed.- Did you?

0:40:51 > 0:40:53- Yeah, I did, I actually failed. - When can you do it next?

0:40:53 > 0:40:5512 months' time from today.

0:40:55 > 0:40:57No, I am gutted but what can you do?

0:40:57 > 0:40:59There's no point dwelling over it.

0:41:00 > 0:41:01Oh, well.

0:41:03 > 0:41:04After such a horrible day,

0:41:04 > 0:41:07Roshelle decides to give herself a little treat.

0:41:07 > 0:41:10Don't do it. She's done it.

0:41:10 > 0:41:11Ah...

0:41:13 > 0:41:15Come and give me a cuddle.

0:41:17 > 0:41:19While Sami comforts his girlfriend,

0:41:19 > 0:41:25back in Manchester, Liam is blaming his for wasting their money.

0:41:26 > 0:41:29Oh, you ain't gone and left the bananas in the fridge?

0:41:29 > 0:41:32Ugh! Think they need chucking, don't they?

0:41:32 > 0:41:34- Yeah, I think so, Leah. - Yeah, all right.

0:41:35 > 0:41:38With two days still to go, their budget is almost gone

0:41:38 > 0:41:42and Leah's expensive family lunch is coming back to haunt her.

0:41:42 > 0:41:44See, Leah, a bloody waste of money.

0:41:44 > 0:41:48The only thing that's rotten is the fruit and that is Leah's fault

0:41:48 > 0:41:51because she knows full well that she said to me at the start,

0:41:51 > 0:41:54"Get loads of fruit because I'll be having it for every breakfast",

0:41:54 > 0:41:57and the only time she's had fruit for breakfast is none of them days.

0:41:57 > 0:41:59I've had it today.

0:41:59 > 0:42:02So Liam decides to take charge.

0:42:02 > 0:42:08Out of £304.55 we will be left with £36.40.

0:42:08 > 0:42:09Right, OK.

0:42:09 > 0:42:11But, after a second count...

0:42:11 > 0:42:13Has someone stolen £20?

0:42:13 > 0:42:16..the situation's even worse than he thought.

0:42:16 > 0:42:17I'm being serious.

0:42:20 > 0:42:23- Sure you ain't taken it? - I haven't taken any bloody money.

0:42:23 > 0:42:25You sure?

0:42:25 > 0:42:27- I'm being serious. - Why would you ask me that?

0:42:27 > 0:42:30As if I'm going to steal from ourselves.

0:42:30 > 0:42:31I'm just asking you, Leah.

0:42:33 > 0:42:38- You're unbelievable sometimes. - I'm not.- You are.

0:42:38 > 0:42:42I just want to calculate all this again before I do anything.

0:42:43 > 0:42:48After counting a third time it turns out Liam's the one at fault,

0:42:48 > 0:42:50the money's all there,

0:42:50 > 0:42:53but they only have 20 quid to last the rest of the week.

0:42:53 > 0:42:55Well, that's basically what we've got left,

0:42:55 > 0:42:58so that's it, that's everything's paid for.

0:42:58 > 0:43:01That is, there's a couple of quid missing and that,

0:43:01 > 0:43:05but I think that's probably cos of all the confusion and that.

0:43:05 > 0:43:07"Sorry, Leah."

0:43:07 > 0:43:09Sorry for what? I never actually accused you.

0:43:09 > 0:43:13- Well, pretty much. - I didn't accuse you though, did I?

0:43:13 > 0:43:17While money troubles are causing real tension between Liam and Leah,

0:43:17 > 0:43:23in Bristol, Roshelle is trying to put her disappointment about the Navy behind her.

0:43:23 > 0:43:25Everything I always do always seems to go wrong,

0:43:25 > 0:43:27so I just want it to go right tonight.

0:43:27 > 0:43:30It's her and Sami's last night in the flat

0:43:30 > 0:43:32and Sami's parents are coming for dinner.

0:43:32 > 0:43:36I just want it to be a nice evening and I want me to deal with

0:43:36 > 0:43:39the cooking and everyone else just have a nice evening.

0:43:39 > 0:43:41But with Roshelle desperate to impress,

0:43:41 > 0:43:43once again there's a wee bit of tension.

0:43:43 > 0:43:45I've just put them there for a reason,

0:43:45 > 0:43:48so now you just took them all off, do you see what I mean?

0:43:48 > 0:43:50Well, they're not staying on there.

0:43:50 > 0:43:54Yes, they are, I've just sat down on them and they feel a lot more comfy.

0:43:54 > 0:43:56Why didn't you ask me? "They're not staying there."

0:43:56 > 0:43:59Why didn't you say, "Babe, why have you put them there?"

0:43:59 > 0:44:03There's things about... There's ways of going around things Sami.

0:44:03 > 0:44:06- Whatever.- Don't speak to me like that.- I'm just saying "whatever".

0:44:06 > 0:44:08Yeah, well don't speak to me like that.

0:44:08 > 0:44:12With her guests due in a few minutes, Roshelle's only getting more stressed.

0:44:12 > 0:44:16And now one of her brand-new bread plates is missing.

0:44:16 > 0:44:19We had four, Sami.

0:44:19 > 0:44:20You're telling me this,

0:44:20 > 0:44:23I don't have a clue where it is, that's why I'm looking for it.

0:44:23 > 0:44:24We definitely had four.

0:44:29 > 0:44:31- It's not funny. - It's not in the fridge.

0:44:32 > 0:44:36The whole point of buying this nice dinner set was for your mum.

0:44:36 > 0:44:39With Roshelle at boiling point, it is Sami to the rescue.

0:44:39 > 0:44:42Not only does he help with the cooking...

0:44:42 > 0:44:44- It's OK, don't cry. - Don't, you've been cutting onions

0:44:44 > 0:44:46and you've just put your fingers on my face.

0:44:46 > 0:44:49..he also makes a quick dash to the shops in order to

0:44:49 > 0:44:52help his girlfriend feel a little calmer.

0:44:52 > 0:44:55Yeah, Roshelle's quite stressed, on edge, she's had a...

0:44:55 > 0:44:58She's got a pack of fags so hopefully that should calm her down.

0:44:58 > 0:45:02So with Sami and Roshelle now working as a team...

0:45:02 > 0:45:04That'll do, that's enough onions.

0:45:04 > 0:45:06..by the time Theresa and Said arrive...

0:45:06 > 0:45:09We having an Indian night tonight, are we?

0:45:09 > 0:45:11- Maybe, yeah.- Ooh, very nice!

0:45:12 > 0:45:16..dinner looks like it might just be a success after all.

0:45:16 > 0:45:19What you going to score me then, for my starter?

0:45:19 > 0:45:22- Oh, ten of course. - Ah, thanks, Said.

0:45:22 > 0:45:24Very strange, actually, to see him doing the washing up

0:45:24 > 0:45:28and tidying because it's obviously something he's never really done,

0:45:28 > 0:45:30cos we've always done it for him.

0:45:30 > 0:45:34But, yeah, it feels really weird, sat here doing nothing

0:45:34 > 0:45:38while they're in the kitchen tidying everything up!

0:45:38 > 0:45:40It's our turn to do nothing.

0:45:40 > 0:45:43Yeah, that's right, that's a novelty, isn't it, for us?

0:45:44 > 0:45:48I think it was important to make a big effort for Sami's parents

0:45:48 > 0:45:51coming round and, like, first impressions -

0:45:51 > 0:45:54they always cook for us, so it's nice to kind of repay the favour.

0:45:54 > 0:45:59With decision day tomorrow, was tonight a thanks and goodbye,

0:45:59 > 0:46:02or will they be going back home to the Hotel of Mum and Dad?

0:46:05 > 0:46:07It's decision day for Liam and Leah, too,

0:46:07 > 0:46:12so for one night only Liam is throwing caution to the wind.

0:46:12 > 0:46:14We have taken some money from our bills,

0:46:14 > 0:46:17cos we were actually going past our budget.

0:46:17 > 0:46:20We thought, you know, it's our last night so we need

0:46:20 > 0:46:24a couple of drinks to sort of finish off the good time that we've had in Manchester.

0:46:24 > 0:46:26We want to out with a bang, really.

0:46:26 > 0:46:29We're not going to go mad, we're just going to have a few drinks,

0:46:29 > 0:46:31a little catch-up with my friend.

0:46:31 > 0:46:34As for the bigger issue of Manchester versus Essex,

0:46:34 > 0:46:38even now Liam and Leah aren't quite on the same page.

0:46:38 > 0:46:41I mean, he does like Manchester as a city, you know,

0:46:41 > 0:46:44he loves the people, the atmosphere, but I don't know

0:46:44 > 0:46:48if he's quite ready to make the...the jump yet.

0:46:48 > 0:46:50With less than 24 hours to convince Liam,

0:46:50 > 0:46:54maybe Manchester's vibrant nightlife will sway his opinion?

0:46:54 > 0:46:57It's fun, innit, coming down here and that? I like it down here.

0:46:57 > 0:47:01- We have come here at the start of our budget.- Mm.

0:47:01 > 0:47:02HE CHUCKLES

0:47:02 > 0:47:05And splashed out then instead of spending £195 on that food we did.

0:47:07 > 0:47:11Come on, Liam, let it go. But at least they've had a good night out

0:47:11 > 0:47:13and now Leah's more convinced than ever that

0:47:13 > 0:47:16Manchester could be home for them both.

0:47:16 > 0:47:20This week's proved that we don't need Essex to do the things that we do.

0:47:20 > 0:47:22No, no, that's right.

0:47:22 > 0:47:24So that is one good thing that I have learnt.

0:47:24 > 0:47:27it's opened my mind a bit to kind of think, "OK, perhaps

0:47:27 > 0:47:30"it's not going to be as hard as I thought it would initially be."

0:47:30 > 0:47:33There's never a dull day in Manchester, is there, really?

0:47:33 > 0:47:34No, definitely.

0:47:34 > 0:47:38The next morning it's decision time and while the couple are en route

0:47:38 > 0:47:42to Essex, Bill's having one last look at what they've been up to.

0:47:42 > 0:47:44Two and eight, 28.

0:47:44 > 0:47:48That's Liam at his best and he genuinely enjoys it, I mean

0:47:48 > 0:47:52you could see he wasn't just doing it, he was doing it and enjoying it.

0:47:52 > 0:47:56Don't know if he'll ever make a bingo caller but, you know...!

0:47:57 > 0:48:01And it's the moment of truth for Bill, Liam and Leah.

0:48:01 > 0:48:03To be, be honest, I didn't miss you.

0:48:03 > 0:48:05- You didn't?- No.

0:48:05 > 0:48:08No, I didn't miss you, but then you didn't miss me.

0:48:08 > 0:48:10Yeah, course I did.

0:48:10 > 0:48:14Looks like daddy's boy Liam is still struggling to cut the apron strings.

0:48:14 > 0:48:17I don't think that we would be half as stuck as we thought

0:48:17 > 0:48:19we would be in Manchester.

0:48:19 > 0:48:21It's not the stuck, we never thought we'd be stuck,

0:48:21 > 0:48:24it's just that cos we do so much down here for Leah's music

0:48:24 > 0:48:27and the people we know, it's hard to sort of go away from it all.

0:48:27 > 0:48:28Well, it isn't though.

0:48:28 > 0:48:32Being in Manchester, I mean I don't know the scene up there,

0:48:32 > 0:48:36but would she not have perhaps a few more opportunities anyway?

0:48:36 > 0:48:38I don't think it's easier.

0:48:38 > 0:48:39With it being a city,

0:48:39 > 0:48:42I do think that there's probably a lot more than we know about.

0:48:42 > 0:48:45I think you should give it a try in Manchester.

0:48:45 > 0:48:48I mean, you've proved that it could work.

0:48:48 > 0:48:51It's just you know what I'm like, I'm quite scared of a lot

0:48:51 > 0:48:54of things like that, when it comes to making different choices,

0:48:54 > 0:48:57but sometimes I do take that little bit more of a risk.

0:48:57 > 0:49:00You know, that's why I've probably opened myself up to

0:49:00 > 0:49:05maybe considering one day, if I do, you know, to move up Manchester.

0:49:05 > 0:49:08But, you know, I'm just really not sure.

0:49:08 > 0:49:10But, although Manchester is too big a leap,

0:49:10 > 0:49:13something a little closer to home might be on the cards.

0:49:13 > 0:49:16Now we've experienced, obviously, moving out for the week,

0:49:16 > 0:49:19it's helped us decide that we do want to move out.

0:49:19 > 0:49:22We're going to start looking at the start of next year

0:49:22 > 0:49:24and give it the rest of this year to...

0:49:24 > 0:49:27- But you're going to stay in Essex? - Just somewhere close by, maybe.

0:49:27 > 0:49:30The best advice I can give you is do what you feel is right

0:49:30 > 0:49:33and whatever that is, I'll support you.

0:49:35 > 0:49:39Every little thing we have done I've enjoyed because it's all

0:49:39 > 0:49:44experience and I'm willing to take on more experience each time,

0:49:44 > 0:49:47you know, to make maybe, possibly, our life better together and

0:49:47 > 0:49:52make sure that we, we take our time to make them decisions together.

0:49:52 > 0:49:55I think the experience has been incredible,

0:49:55 > 0:50:00I've really enjoyed myself, and I just think that...

0:50:00 > 0:50:04I just think it's been, sort of, an eye-opener really to all of us.

0:50:05 > 0:50:08Though for Leah, leaving behind her family in Manchester

0:50:08 > 0:50:11for the second time proves too much

0:50:11 > 0:50:16and a month later she's decided to return home, this time without Liam.

0:50:16 > 0:50:20Unfortunately, myself and Liam have decided to separate.

0:50:20 > 0:50:23We both just saw things from different views.

0:50:24 > 0:50:26It's a sad thing that's happened and that,

0:50:26 > 0:50:30but it's just a few things that we weren't agreeing on.

0:50:30 > 0:50:35We've realised that it is not going to work long-term,

0:50:35 > 0:50:39so I'm back in Manchester and Liam's staying in Essex for now.

0:50:39 > 0:50:41It is devastating and that, you know,

0:50:41 > 0:50:44because I've grown up with Leah since the age of 16,

0:50:44 > 0:50:47you know, so it is a very upsetting thing.

0:50:47 > 0:50:50But, you know, if it's not meant to be, it's not meant to be.

0:50:50 > 0:50:53Who knows, you know, maybe one day we can be friends

0:50:53 > 0:50:55and it'll all be nice and amicable.

0:50:57 > 0:51:02So, that's one couple who, sadly, won't be moving in together.

0:51:02 > 0:51:06But what does the future hold for Sami and Roshelle?

0:51:06 > 0:51:09Like Liam and Leah they also struggled with their budget.

0:51:09 > 0:51:13Food, we estimated 50 quid, but we spent about 160 quid

0:51:13 > 0:51:16because we hosted a barbecue and a curry night.

0:51:16 > 0:51:20Mm. So yeah, we have gone a bit overboard.

0:51:20 > 0:51:22Yeah, you have. Just a bit(!)

0:51:22 > 0:51:25After a few days, their money was gone

0:51:25 > 0:51:28and now they are 140 quid over budget.

0:51:28 > 0:51:32That's what this is about, this is about learning

0:51:32 > 0:51:36and what we can and cannot spend it on, really.

0:51:36 > 0:51:38What they SHOULDN'T spend it on is a day out,

0:51:38 > 0:51:41but they go anyway to think through their decisions.

0:51:44 > 0:51:49Overall, I'd give the week a ten out of ten - it's been great for me.

0:51:49 > 0:51:51Yeah, no, I'd agree, definitely.

0:51:51 > 0:51:54I'm definitely proud of Sami, he's achieved everything this week

0:51:54 > 0:51:57that he thought he would never be able to do.

0:51:57 > 0:51:59Being a mummy's boy and all that.

0:51:59 > 0:52:01And Roshelle's also had a breakthrough.

0:52:01 > 0:52:04Oh, it's definitely been an eye-opener for me,

0:52:04 > 0:52:07realising how I react on small things, but to me it's not

0:52:07 > 0:52:13being nasty, it's the way...the way I am. I suppose it's in my genes.

0:52:13 > 0:52:15It's cos you're slightly Scouse.

0:52:15 > 0:52:18And he understands that but no-one else understands that.

0:52:18 > 0:52:21I can't help it. But I def... I definitely need to work on it.

0:52:22 > 0:52:24Yeah, you do. I'm joking!

0:52:26 > 0:52:32While Sami and Roshelle mull things over, Theresa and Said are seeing how their boy has coped.

0:52:32 > 0:52:34He's doing the washing, that's a first, innit?

0:52:34 > 0:52:37Have you ever seen him using the washing machine?

0:52:37 > 0:52:40- Definitely the first time. - Yeah, never seen that in my life.

0:52:40 > 0:52:42Didn't know he had that in him, did you?

0:52:42 > 0:52:44It's a miracle.

0:52:44 > 0:52:46So, now it's the moment of truth.

0:52:46 > 0:52:51Has Roshelle persuaded this mummy's boy to become an independent man?

0:52:51 > 0:52:53All right, guys? How you doing, all right?

0:52:53 > 0:52:56- Yeah. - Good, the week's been going good.

0:52:56 > 0:53:00A few challenges arised, but we just laughed at the end, didn't we?

0:53:00 > 0:53:03- Yeah.- And it was just like...

0:53:03 > 0:53:05So, Mum, have you missed me or not this week?

0:53:05 > 0:53:07Yeah, we've really... I've really missed you,

0:53:07 > 0:53:09the house is too quiet, you know, there's not as much

0:53:09 > 0:53:13life in it any more, you know, hearing you fighting and giggling.

0:53:13 > 0:53:16But you've really surprised me, you've just both made

0:53:16 > 0:53:20yourself a lovely home and I really am really, really chuffed with you.

0:53:22 > 0:53:25All right, guys, what's your decision now?

0:53:26 > 0:53:29We've had a long, a real long talk about it and, er...

0:53:29 > 0:53:31We had a massive talk yesterday about everything,

0:53:31 > 0:53:35like, finance-wise and how our relationship's getting on

0:53:35 > 0:53:39and stuff like that and more just, like, looking towards the future.

0:53:39 > 0:53:42Yeah. We've made a decision of...

0:53:42 > 0:53:43- What's your decision? - You tell them.

0:53:43 > 0:53:46- You tell them, you tell them.- Yeah, we're going to stay in the flat

0:53:46 > 0:53:49and we're going to keep going as we are.

0:53:49 > 0:53:53And we're just going to see, I'm go...going full-time next week.

0:53:53 > 0:53:55So that'll be more money coming in and...

0:53:55 > 0:53:58Well, as long you know that you can do it,

0:53:58 > 0:54:00then good luck to both of you.

0:54:00 > 0:54:02Thank you.

0:54:02 > 0:54:03Good luck, guys.

0:54:03 > 0:54:06And, and Roshelle's pregnant as well.

0:54:06 > 0:54:07- Ah, no.- What?

0:54:07 > 0:54:09- Stop it.- One nil!

0:54:09 > 0:54:11ALL LAUGH

0:54:14 > 0:54:18No more, like, attitude or being so fiery as I am and just

0:54:18 > 0:54:22laughing things off stop taking things too serious.

0:54:22 > 0:54:24I'm very proud of them.

0:54:24 > 0:54:28They've done well and the decision is the right decision.

0:54:28 > 0:54:31I am definitely excited, I don't know about you.

0:54:31 > 0:54:34I am really excited, you know? It's the start of our future,

0:54:34 > 0:54:37- it's the start of our life together, really.- Yeah, can't wait.

0:54:37 > 0:54:39Even though we've lived together for two years already,

0:54:39 > 0:54:43- it's just a new part in our life. - Yeah.

0:54:43 > 0:54:45Hopefully a new me, so that'll be nice.

0:54:49 > 0:54:53Next time on Hotel of Mum and Dad, we meet eating machine Isaac

0:54:53 > 0:54:55and pampered princess Christie.

0:54:55 > 0:54:58I'm pretty much an addict when it comes to food.

0:54:58 > 0:54:59They've got big dreams of city life,

0:54:59 > 0:55:02but do they have the big budget to match?

0:55:02 > 0:55:04I'm just saying we need more money...

0:55:04 > 0:55:05- We don't have more money. - ..for food.

0:55:05 > 0:55:08And Laura and Lee, who live the life of Riley.

0:55:08 > 0:55:11- We have our own gym here. - It is like living in luxury, really.

0:55:11 > 0:55:14How will they cope out in the real world?

0:55:14 > 0:55:18- There's 13 boys coming round. - That room is going to stink when I go in there in the morning.

0:55:18 > 0:55:20My dad does see me like I'm still this petulant child.

0:55:20 > 0:55:23Will you listen?! Don't say a word, don't say a word.
