0:00:02 > 0:00:04This programme contains strong language.
0:00:04 > 0:00:08Your children are cute. Then before you know it, they're all grown up
0:00:08 > 0:00:12and ready to fly the nest. That's how it's supposed to work.
0:00:12 > 0:00:16- Stop acting like a spoilt brat! - Well, I am a spoilt brat!
0:00:16 > 0:00:19In these recession-riddled times it's harder than ever
0:00:19 > 0:00:23for young people to get a job so what chance do these reprobates have
0:00:23 > 0:00:25of standing on their own two feet?
0:00:25 > 0:00:26SCREAMING
0:00:26 > 0:00:29- Mum! - This lot are selfish...
0:00:29 > 0:00:32You give me money so I don't have to work. That is MY reality.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34- Sponging... - Give me your change.
0:00:34 > 0:00:38- Lazy... - You ain't ironed that yet, have you? - Jack, I've just ironed it.
0:00:38 > 0:00:40And completely useless.
0:00:40 > 0:00:44I don't know how to use the washing machine, the microwave, the dryer...
0:00:44 > 0:00:46But I can lick my elbow.
0:00:46 > 0:00:49Their parents are sick of waiting for them to grow up and move out
0:00:49 > 0:00:52but they've only got themselves to blame.
0:00:52 > 0:00:54Grace has been one of my biggest mistakes in life.
0:00:54 > 0:00:56I'm ashamed of myself really.
0:00:56 > 0:00:59I've kind of reached a point where I can't do it any more.
0:00:59 > 0:01:04So they're finally kicking them out and forcing them to run their own home.
0:01:04 > 0:01:05# Party rock! #
0:01:06 > 0:01:08Not one bit of food in the house.
0:01:08 > 0:01:11We've got to buy sheets, pillows, everything.
0:01:11 > 0:01:16I know this isn't prison but they're doing better off in there than we are here.
0:01:16 > 0:01:18# Party rock is in the house. #
0:01:18 > 0:01:20They'll be made to get jobs like the rest of us.
0:01:20 > 0:01:22SCREAMING
0:01:22 > 0:01:23Do you want to do some work?
0:01:23 > 0:01:26Let me know when it's convenient for you, you know?
0:01:26 > 0:01:27SHE RETCHES
0:01:27 > 0:01:31- I've never seen such a negative group, such a negative attitude. - I don't get it.
0:01:31 > 0:01:33No, cos I'm meant to be head chef.
0:01:33 > 0:01:35HE SCREAMS
0:01:35 > 0:01:38It kinda makes you despair for humanity sometimes,
0:01:38 > 0:01:40seeing people like this.
0:01:40 > 0:01:43It's all under the watchful gaze of their own parents,
0:01:43 > 0:01:45who will judge their progress.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48I just thought they acted like spoilt brats, every one of them.
0:01:48 > 0:01:51And each week the most useless gets the boot.
0:01:54 > 0:01:57At stake, the prize of a round-the-world trip.
0:01:57 > 0:01:59Woo!
0:01:59 > 0:02:03Will a month of independent living make them finally grow up?
0:02:03 > 0:02:05I can't live with animals.
0:02:05 > 0:02:07This is who we are!
0:02:08 > 0:02:11- I'll smack you in the face. - I hate her.
0:02:11 > 0:02:13I didn't realise how hard it would be for me.
0:02:13 > 0:02:17Or will they remain Young, Dumb And Living Off Mum?
0:02:17 > 0:02:20- I've- BLEEP- had it through, now- BLEEP.
0:02:20 > 0:02:22# You know we're superstars
0:02:22 > 0:02:24# We are, we are
0:02:24 > 0:02:25# Ow! #
0:02:31 > 0:02:34For the next four weeks, these young, spoilt and unemployed
0:02:34 > 0:02:38layabouts will be leaving behind the comforts of their homes.
0:02:38 > 0:02:42I can't cook, I can't clean and I can't use a washing machine.
0:02:42 > 0:02:46And challenged to live independently in London's East End.
0:02:46 > 0:02:48It's not the best area.
0:02:48 > 0:02:52I like Chelsea and Knightsbridge. The posh areas!
0:02:53 > 0:02:57And it will be here that our motley crew will live.
0:02:57 > 0:03:01The only problem is they won't have Mummy and Daddy to clean up after them.
0:03:01 > 0:03:03So let's meet them.
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Is that like a pizza thing?
0:03:05 > 0:03:08I definitely won't be using that.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10# Cos you were born this way, baby. #
0:03:10 > 0:03:13Introducing 18-year-old delightful diva, Ruby Jo.
0:03:15 > 0:03:18If I don't get my own way all hell will break loose.
0:03:18 > 0:03:21But it's Ruby Jo's mum that has to cater for all her needs.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24I do feel a lot of the time like I'm a slave for Ruby Jo.
0:03:24 > 0:03:27Mum! Mum! Mum!
0:03:27 > 0:03:30Can I have a new brew please, Mum? That one was minging.
0:03:30 > 0:03:32I know for a fact she wants to get me out the house.
0:03:32 > 0:03:35It's got to that point now where I've really had enough of it.
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Next to arrive, it's Jack and Jade.
0:03:38 > 0:03:41- You all right? It's nice to meet you.- Nice to meet you.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47When 19-year-old Jack isn't in a nightclub getting girls, he's at home
0:03:47 > 0:03:49getting his mum to do everything for him.
0:03:49 > 0:03:52- Mum, get in that kitchen and make me a cup of tea, please? - Jack, I'm tired.
0:03:52 > 0:03:54Thank you.
0:03:54 > 0:03:58Even though his mum is disabled, he still makes her wait on him hand and foot.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02- Mum?- He's never helped me once and he knows what it's like
0:04:02 > 0:04:03with my disability.
0:04:03 > 0:04:05'She's got arthritis.' Can I have a cup of tea?
0:04:05 > 0:04:07- Seriously, I want one. - Goodness sake!
0:04:07 > 0:04:11I don't feel that bad. I'm not asking her to bungee jump,
0:04:11 > 0:04:15she's just walking from room to room. She's fine, she loves it.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18Next it's 18-year-old Jade,
0:04:18 > 0:04:22- who's turning childlike tantrums into an art form. - Are you taking the piss?
0:04:22 > 0:04:24I have a tantrum if I don't get my own way.
0:04:24 > 0:04:26Do you think I'd wear that?
0:04:26 > 0:04:30I have a tantrum if I've just had enough. SHE SCREAMS
0:04:30 > 0:04:31I have one whenever.
0:04:31 > 0:04:33Do you seriously think I would wear them?
0:04:33 > 0:04:36She doesn't want the responsibility of being an adult.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38You'll have to get me the ones I want.
0:04:38 > 0:04:42There's something in my body that just goes...and that's it. Argh!
0:04:42 > 0:04:45It just becomes too much and I want to cry sometimes.
0:04:45 > 0:04:48Right, we've got to find another room, where is it?
0:04:48 > 0:04:51- We need this one now. - No, n-n-n-n-no.
0:04:52 > 0:04:54For Enzo at 20 years old,
0:04:54 > 0:04:57he's surely the world's biggest Mummy's boy.
0:04:57 > 0:04:58There you go.
0:04:58 > 0:05:01My relationship with my mum is great. She does look after me,
0:05:01 > 0:05:04she does make my life really good.
0:05:04 > 0:05:05I like it.
0:05:05 > 0:05:07He doesn't do anything for himself.
0:05:07 > 0:05:10I don't know how he'd manage if he had to look after himself.
0:05:10 > 0:05:13I don't know how I'd cope because I haven't had to.
0:05:13 > 0:05:16It's driving his dad bonkers.
0:05:16 > 0:05:19- You can't even make toast. - No, I...- OK, OK.- Go and make toast.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22He has taken full advantage of it.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25He needs to get away from this house because cos he's never really
0:05:25 > 0:05:27been away from his mother.
0:05:27 > 0:05:32For Ryan, 18, life is one big, work-free fantasy.
0:05:32 > 0:05:35I'd love to live the celebrity lifestyle.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37The limos, the parties, the headlines,
0:05:37 > 0:05:41you know, "Ryan's sleeping with so and so." Just the dream.
0:05:41 > 0:05:44And while Ryan parties it's his mum that pays the bills.
0:05:44 > 0:05:47Ryan does absolutely nothing around the house.
0:05:47 > 0:05:50I love been treated like a princess, everything done for me.
0:05:50 > 0:05:52I feel like Cinderella.
0:05:53 > 0:05:56He goes out with his friends a lot, he drinks,
0:05:56 > 0:05:59he parties...That's about it. He has beaten me down.
0:05:59 > 0:06:02I'd just like him to realise what it's like to live
0:06:02 > 0:06:04out in the real world.
0:06:04 > 0:06:07# Today I don't feel like doing anything. #
0:06:07 > 0:06:1019-year-old Tom never pulls his weight around the house.
0:06:10 > 0:06:14In fact the only weight he does pull dangles between his legs.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18A typical day in the life of me, I just lay about all day.
0:06:18 > 0:06:22Watch television, watching DVDs and masturbating.
0:06:22 > 0:06:26In fact, this is one young man who gives a new meaning to the word "lazy".
0:06:26 > 0:06:28If I could be one animal I'd be a cat
0:06:28 > 0:06:31because all you have to do is lay around and sleep.
0:06:31 > 0:06:33He's got the best life in the world.
0:06:33 > 0:06:37If someone pushed his chest in and out, he'd be absolutely chuffed.
0:06:37 > 0:06:39He wouldn't have to make the effort to breathe.
0:06:40 > 0:06:43The last two people to arrive are Gracie and Sophie.
0:06:45 > 0:06:4820-year-old daddy's girl Gracie gets what she wants at any cost.
0:06:48 > 0:06:51I love shopping because I don't have to pay for it
0:06:51 > 0:06:53and I can have whatever I want.
0:06:53 > 0:06:58'People who say things like money can't buy you happiness...' Thank you!
0:06:58 > 0:07:00..clearly don't know where to shop. I like this one.
0:07:00 > 0:07:02And she expects her taxi driver dad
0:07:02 > 0:07:05to pay for a lifestyle he can't afford.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07It's lovely.
0:07:07 > 0:07:12Unfortunately or fortunately she has some lovely friends but their parents are multi-millionaires
0:07:12 > 0:07:15and she sees an Audi TT and she wants one.
0:07:15 > 0:07:18This will probably put my dad in debt for the next ten years, but...
0:07:18 > 0:07:19SHE GIGGLES
0:07:21 > 0:07:24If Gracie's used to having rich friends...
0:07:24 > 0:07:27she should get on spiffingly with final member of the house,
0:07:27 > 0:07:2918-year-old Sophie.
0:07:29 > 0:07:31My great grandmother's Veronica Spencer Churchill,
0:07:31 > 0:07:35so related to Winston Churchill. Blue-blooded, that's what Grandma says.
0:07:35 > 0:07:38And high society spendaholic Sophie
0:07:38 > 0:07:41has never had to worry about money before.
0:07:41 > 0:07:44Whatever I want my dad will pretty much get me.
0:07:44 > 0:07:46£595, I think.
0:07:47 > 0:07:48I've spent a fortune.
0:07:48 > 0:07:50I got a bag that matches.
0:07:50 > 0:07:55£13,000 in the past two months. It's almost impossible to say no.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58If I dropped dead tomorrow she won't have the skills
0:07:58 > 0:08:00to live in this world.
0:08:02 > 0:08:06So, those are the young dumbers and they are home alone...
0:08:06 > 0:08:09I wonder if there's anything in the fridge?
0:08:09 > 0:08:11..with the cupboards bare.
0:08:11 > 0:08:15No, look at that, empty. We've got a letter.
0:08:15 > 0:08:18- We've got a letter.- Do you want to listen to this?- Oh, wow.
0:08:18 > 0:08:21"Welcome to your new home, we hope you like it.
0:08:21 > 0:08:23"As you may have noticed, there are two envelopes.
0:08:23 > 0:08:28"One contains eight individual envelopes which are £29.52.
0:08:28 > 0:08:30"This is to last you four days."
0:08:30 > 0:08:35- GASPING - What is that?- How much?- £29.52.
0:08:35 > 0:08:38It's the equivalent to someone living on Jobseeker's Allowance.
0:08:38 > 0:08:40"This covers food, drink and living essentials."
0:08:40 > 0:08:42- Really?- I doubt it.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46"The other envelope contains £450 in cash.
0:08:46 > 0:08:50"You should spend this on everything you need to make this house your home."
0:08:50 > 0:08:52No way, that's so good.
0:08:52 > 0:08:55"Have a look around, see what you think you need to live.
0:08:55 > 0:08:58"Good luck and happy shopping. Love, parents."
0:08:58 > 0:09:00Oh, my God, we get to go shopping.
0:09:04 > 0:09:06Oh, no. We've actually got nothing.
0:09:06 > 0:09:09Do we have to buy duvets and sheets then?
0:09:09 > 0:09:11Oh, my God, we do, don't we?
0:09:11 > 0:09:15I haven't even seen a kettle. There's literally nothing here.
0:09:17 > 0:09:19For the new housemates this just got serious.
0:09:19 > 0:09:24- We need to go shopping today because we need duvets. - I can't sleep without a pillow.
0:09:24 > 0:09:26Think about that money, there's eight of us.
0:09:26 > 0:09:30We need to buy 16 pillows. I have to sleep with two pillows.
0:09:30 > 0:09:33I'm worried about not being able to afford the bed covers,
0:09:33 > 0:09:34like the duvets and stuff.
0:09:34 > 0:09:37All my bed stuff is, like, goose down,
0:09:37 > 0:09:40which is £1,000 for a double duvet, so yeah.
0:09:40 > 0:09:42- Shall we go then?- Yeah, let's go.
0:09:45 > 0:09:48For the first time ever their mums and dads
0:09:48 > 0:09:50won't be doing everything for them.
0:09:50 > 0:09:53Instead they'll be watching from afar,
0:09:53 > 0:09:57assessing the progress of their kids working and living on their own.
0:09:57 > 0:10:00That was a bit out there, I thought.
0:10:00 > 0:10:02And they'll decide who to give the boot to,
0:10:02 > 0:10:05based on who has made the least effort.
0:10:05 > 0:10:06That is really hard.
0:10:06 > 0:10:10I don't think they really tried to follow it through to the end. They just had a laugh.
0:10:10 > 0:10:12Leaving one of them at the end of the four weeks
0:10:12 > 0:10:14deemed fit for adulthood.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Winning themselves a round the world trip
0:10:16 > 0:10:21and total independence from their parents.
0:10:21 > 0:10:24With all that at stake, it's essential the young dumbers
0:10:24 > 0:10:27start off by spending their household allowance wisely.
0:10:27 > 0:10:28So, where will they start?
0:10:28 > 0:10:32- It's six for £2, isn't it? - We've just found duvets for £1!
0:10:32 > 0:10:35That's pillows, and then down there is duvet covers.
0:10:35 > 0:10:38And Ryan thinks creatively about how to make savings.
0:10:38 > 0:10:41I suggested to eat out of these because they're cheaper.
0:10:41 > 0:10:45I know it's a dog's bowl, which is stupid. But it will be a lot cheaper.
0:10:45 > 0:10:48We needed a kettle. £15, this one's nice.
0:10:48 > 0:10:51With limited funds, it's important the group prioritise.
0:10:51 > 0:10:53Is duct tape is a necessity?
0:10:53 > 0:10:56- No, it's a bit strange. - For somebody who doesn't shut up?
0:10:56 > 0:11:00Let's get some party stuff to decorate the house for a party.
0:11:00 > 0:11:04And it's not long before they're all distracted by the party products.
0:11:04 > 0:11:08Twister! For our party tonight.
0:11:10 > 0:11:11We need balloons!
0:11:11 > 0:11:15And take liberties with the try before you buy policy.
0:11:20 > 0:11:22You look nice with pink hair!
0:11:31 > 0:11:34Having finished covering each other with silly string,
0:11:34 > 0:11:36they head for the tills to pay.
0:11:36 > 0:11:39But they realise they've overspent on party products.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Who's looking silly now? Oh, the irony!
0:11:42 > 0:11:46- The stuff we've got through so far is very essential, like party stuff. - OK, right.
0:11:46 > 0:11:52And, instead of returning any of the party props, Sophie gets Jade to put the kettle back.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Do we need a kettle? Have you got one? No?
0:11:55 > 0:12:00- No, you haven't got enough. - We can boil water in a pan so we're getting rid of the kettle.
0:12:00 > 0:12:01That'll make things a lot cheaper.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05But boiling water in a pan is not something Gracie likes the sound of.
0:12:05 > 0:12:10I'm getting severely annoyed. It's just ridiculous. The point of this trip was to get stuff we need,
0:12:10 > 0:12:15not that we want. We're going to get home, get everything out and then tomorrow we'll need something
0:12:15 > 0:12:17and realise we don't have it and don't have money left.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21This is all the stuff we thought we'd be able to afford but actually can't.
0:12:21 > 0:12:26Outside the supermarket, Gracie makes her feelings known to the rest of the group.
0:12:26 > 0:12:29Why do we need plastic cutlery and we've got Twister
0:12:29 > 0:12:32and hula hoops? Know what I mean? This is just ridiculous.
0:12:32 > 0:12:36- I don't want live in a kebab house. - It's good that we've got Twister.
0:12:36 > 0:12:40A kebab house with Twister and hula hoops? Sounds like heaven!
0:12:43 > 0:12:47Come on, sis, we've got to make it fun.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51Back home, the kids settle in and unpack their new things, and their suitcases.
0:12:51 > 0:12:52Where am I going to put my staff?
0:12:52 > 0:12:56With only one wardrobe in the girls' room, they're going to have to share.
0:12:56 > 0:13:03I'm an organisation freak and I cannot keep my stuff in my suitcase, if you guys don't mind.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06I've got OCD, so I'd literally, like, panic, like, freak out
0:13:06 > 0:13:09if my stuff was in my suitcase.
0:13:09 > 0:13:13Sophie's used up all the space, so Gracie has nowhere for clothes other than the floor.
0:13:13 > 0:13:17My clothes are all unorganised and it's doing my head in already.
0:13:17 > 0:13:22- I don't have anywhere else to put them, so...- There's two drawers, so me and Ruby put our stuff in them.
0:13:22 > 0:13:26I feel like I'm going to cry.
0:13:26 > 0:13:31But it's not just sharing a communal space that the parents want their kids to experience,
0:13:31 > 0:13:35it's all aspects of adult life, including feeding themselves properly.
0:13:35 > 0:13:39So, after making sure they have everything they need for a party,
0:13:39 > 0:13:42it's time to think about a food shop,
0:13:42 > 0:13:45which involves popping down to the local kebab house.
0:13:45 > 0:13:50- Can you put it in the corner? - Which? The right or the left? - That one, please.
0:13:50 > 0:13:53This is depressing.
0:13:53 > 0:13:58Although posh girl Sophie isn't impressed by the menu.
0:13:58 > 0:14:02It's, like, my worst nightmare, it's, like, come true.
0:14:02 > 0:14:07This thought about, in mind right now, that I would love to have is anchovies, olives and hummus
0:14:07 > 0:14:11and taramasalata with pitta bread, like, warmed up, toasted, cut into soldiers.
0:14:11 > 0:14:15And her high-society attitude is starting to grate on some of the others.
0:14:15 > 0:14:18I've had a bit of a problem with Sophie,
0:14:18 > 0:14:22how she's Little Miss Perfect and no one else is good enough
0:14:22 > 0:14:26to be around her and all that kind of stuff.
0:14:26 > 0:14:28It's just a bunch of crap, isn't it, really?
0:14:28 > 0:14:31So they're already rubbing each other up the wrong way.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32Let's eat!
0:14:32 > 0:14:36Bad news, considering they'll all be working together tomorrow.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41£26, please.
0:14:41 > 0:14:44Each week, the parents will take it in turns to send their kids
0:14:44 > 0:14:46into the real world of work.
0:14:46 > 0:14:49I'm losing my bloody temper.
0:14:49 > 0:14:51It's a chance to learn how to be responsible,
0:14:51 > 0:14:55behave professionally and grasp the meaning of hard work.
0:14:55 > 0:14:57- There you are. - Oh-ho-ho!
0:14:57 > 0:15:00This week, Gracie's dad will be choosing the placement.
0:15:00 > 0:15:05Unlike Gracie, dad Graham works long hours to provide for the family.
0:15:05 > 0:15:08I work six days a week.
0:15:08 > 0:15:13Grace needs to learn that money doesn't grow on trees and she's got to learn that, you know,
0:15:13 > 0:15:17there's a sort of self-satisfaction in going to work and getting a wage
0:15:17 > 0:15:19and achieving something.
0:15:19 > 0:15:23Graham knows that, in times of recession, the way to survive as an adult
0:15:23 > 0:15:25is to get out there and graft.
0:15:25 > 0:15:26PHONE RINGS
0:15:29 > 0:15:34- Hello.- Hello, guys. It's Graham here, Grace's dad.- Hello, Dad! - Hello, Gracie's dad.
0:15:46 > 0:15:47Oh!
0:15:49 > 0:15:52- Dad!- Get lost.- Dad, what is wrong with you?
0:15:57 > 0:16:00No! No!
0:16:07 > 0:16:08SHE GASPS
0:16:08 > 0:16:10This is going to be fun.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17- Thanks, Dad. Bye.- Oh no!
0:16:17 > 0:16:20- That means we'll have to get up at seven.- I'm scared.
0:16:20 > 0:16:24- We've got to tour people around somewhere.- That'll be fun. - What a div!
0:16:26 > 0:16:32Back home, these slackers take a relaxed approach to anything that resembles work.
0:16:32 > 0:16:36I think I'm too high maintenance to work. I can't be expected to run around after other people.
0:16:36 > 0:16:38They should be running around after me.
0:16:40 > 0:16:46My grandmas never worked, my uncles never worked, none of them ever work, so why should I?
0:16:46 > 0:16:51Life's to short, you know, and I know that's a deep thing to say...
0:16:51 > 0:16:57I'd rather spend my time going shopping, nails done, beauty stuff,
0:16:57 > 0:16:59going clubbing with my mates.
0:17:01 > 0:17:06Don't hold down jobs, don't like working, don't need to work, so...
0:17:06 > 0:17:11I'd love to be a celebrity. That's probably the only job I'm willing to be.
0:17:11 > 0:17:14It was first founded in Roman times.
0:17:14 > 0:17:17With that work ethic, it's amazing they've even bothered
0:17:17 > 0:17:19to open the information packs they've been given.
0:17:19 > 0:17:22Does anyone else hate history? It's history, been and gone.
0:17:22 > 0:17:27It's a good job they have, though, since part of working in the youth hostel tomorrow
0:17:27 > 0:17:29involves guiding the guests around London.
0:17:29 > 0:17:32It's nerve-racking because we have to remember all this staff.
0:17:32 > 0:17:37- Why not improvise?- Elaborate, just lie.- Yeah, lie. Just improvise it.
0:17:37 > 0:17:41- They won't even know Tourists won't have a clue what we're on about. - They won't know.
0:17:41 > 0:17:45I could just waffle all day and they'd believe me. They won't even understand me.
0:17:45 > 0:17:47I'm not going to spend all night reading them because
0:17:47 > 0:17:51the more you try to remember, the more you're likely to forget.
0:17:51 > 0:17:55After about 10 minutes of attempting to prepare for tomorrow's work placement,
0:17:55 > 0:17:59Gracie decides a different approach might be better suited to them.
0:17:59 > 0:18:03The plan this evening is to get stupidly drunk and have a good night,
0:18:03 > 0:18:08- I think, get to know each other a bit better.- Here's to our first day of independence.- Cheers, everybody!
0:18:09 > 0:18:14- Woo!- Oh, my God!
0:18:14 > 0:18:19SCREAMING AND LAUGHTER
0:18:23 > 0:18:25Want to come and play "I'd Never" with me?
0:18:25 > 0:18:29Sophie is used to people being at her beck and call and demands that everyone plays
0:18:29 > 0:18:30- a drinking game with her.
0:18:30 > 0:18:33You guys, we're going to play "I'd Never". He's up for it.
0:18:33 > 0:18:38- Your bitch is up for it.- Bitches? - Your bitch.- No! How dare you?
0:18:38 > 0:18:41- She's my bitch. - Coming out for a cigarette?
0:18:41 > 0:18:44Come over here, darling.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46WHISPERING
0:18:46 > 0:18:50But being referred to as one of Sophie's bitches isn't something Gracie appreciates.
0:18:50 > 0:18:55Maybe we have to make an effort but I'm not letting anybody talk to me like a piece of shit.
0:18:55 > 0:18:59- No, never. No, exactly.- I've got no reason to. I don't let my mum and dad do it.- Exactly.
0:18:59 > 0:19:02- It's cos she thinks she's better than everyone else.- Yeah, but she's not.
0:19:02 > 0:19:08- Just because I'm not up my own arse. - Yeah, exactly.- And talking like I'm Daddy's Little Princess, whatever.
0:19:08 > 0:19:14- Not that Sophie noticed. - I'm getting on with Jade and, like, Ruby and the other girl.
0:19:14 > 0:19:16I can't remember her name.
0:19:16 > 0:19:20- What's the other girl's name? I can't remember.- Her name's Crazy Gracie.- Gracie. Crazy Gracie.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27It's midnight and, even though the group need to get up
0:19:27 > 0:19:31in six hours for work, they'd rather carry on chatting and drinking than going to bed.
0:19:31 > 0:19:35- When did you find out that you were gay?- I came out when I was 12.
0:19:35 > 0:19:40- Really?- Wow! - Were your parents cool about it?
0:19:40 > 0:19:43My dad was fine with it straight away, my mum, at the time
0:19:43 > 0:19:46she was a bit upset in case I got bullied or stuff like that.
0:19:46 > 0:19:50- You wouldn't have kids, would you? - I'm... I.- I'm totally against it.
0:19:50 > 0:19:54- Yeah.- I literally am totally against two guys having a kid.
0:19:54 > 0:19:57- I think that's completely wrong. - No.- No, I don't.
0:19:57 > 0:20:00I'm not going to argue with you but I disagree with that.
0:20:00 > 0:20:02You think it's OK for two guys to have a kid?
0:20:02 > 0:20:06That kid will get bullied like shit, it will grow up without a mother.
0:20:06 > 0:20:09Every single kid needs a mother. I am totally against it.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13It's really surprising me that you say that, cos I just think it's, like, 2011.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Everybody needs a mum and everybody needs a dad.
0:20:16 > 0:20:20Straight up, if you want kids and you're going to be responsible, why the fuck not?
0:20:20 > 0:20:25- Go for it, deffo.- You guys are the first people I've met that agree with it.- Where are you from?
0:20:25 > 0:20:29- That's really upset me and I feel like crying, but I won't cos there's a camera.- Aww!
0:20:29 > 0:20:34- No, no.- No, I feel like an absolute arsehole now.
0:20:34 > 0:20:38- No, you don't, you don't.- I don't think you should feel like that. My best mate's gay.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41I just don't think, like... So what if he turned around and said,
0:20:41 > 0:20:46- "Me and my boyfriend are on about adopting?"- I would say to him that I don't think it's a good idea.
0:20:46 > 0:20:51- You all right, Ryan?- Yeah. - You sure?- Yeah.- No, you're not.
0:20:51 > 0:20:55- Do you need another drink?- Yeah. - Sorry.- Give me a hug.
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Come on, let's have cheese and onion crisps.
0:20:57 > 0:21:00It's safe to say that, if I ever decide to adopt, I won't tell you.
0:21:03 > 0:21:07Shouldn't be allowed to adopt. Fucking stupid bitch.
0:21:09 > 0:21:13It's like, I mean, come on, yeah. If that's her view, yeah, say it to whoever,
0:21:13 > 0:21:16but you don't say it in front of a gay or a lesbian, do you?
0:21:16 > 0:21:20Even though she's offended Ryan and some of the others as well,
0:21:20 > 0:21:22Sophie doesn't see what all the fuss is about.
0:21:24 > 0:21:28They were all on about, "It's 2010, blah blah blah."
0:21:28 > 0:21:30I don't give a shit if it's 2010.
0:21:30 > 0:21:34It could be 2000 and fucking 13, I'm still going to think the same thing.
0:21:35 > 0:21:41- It's 2011, Sophie.- Is it? Really? You're joking. 2011?
0:21:41 > 0:21:44I didn't even know that.
0:21:45 > 0:21:51Oh, my God! And I'm so behind. I never know what day it is either.
0:21:51 > 0:21:54While Sophie gets around the mind-boggling fact that it's 2011,
0:21:54 > 0:21:57the others gossip about her comments.
0:21:57 > 0:21:59That was just so small-minded.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02- It's not the fucking 1900s any more, or whatever it was.- No.
0:22:02 > 0:22:04Seriously.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Thinking Sophie is still outside, Gracie chips in.
0:22:07 > 0:22:11She should be ashamed of herself. She's a horrible person.
0:22:11 > 0:22:15She's a bully, thinks she's better than everyone else.
0:22:15 > 0:22:16TOILET FLUSHES
0:22:18 > 0:22:20Cow. That's what I think.
0:22:20 > 0:22:24Little Miss Perfect.
0:22:24 > 0:22:27I think she's a fucking idiot. I can't stand her.
0:22:27 > 0:22:32- You all right?- I'm pissed off.- Why? - I was brushing my teeth and I could here them gossiping about me
0:22:32 > 0:22:37and I'm not impressed. That's so fucking childish. If they've something to say, say it to my face.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40It's one thing I can't stand, is people who gossip behind my back.
0:22:40 > 0:22:43Like, if you have something to say, say it to my fucking face.
0:22:43 > 0:22:45- Says she behind Gracie's back! - Bitch.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49As Sophie goes to sleep, Gracie decides it's time to rally the troops
0:22:49 > 0:22:53and plot revenge on Sophie for upsetting Ryan earlier.
0:22:56 > 0:22:59- Let's do it.- Come on, let's do that. I like that plan.
0:22:59 > 0:23:02And I think Ryan should get first dibs on it as well.
0:23:04 > 0:23:07PINK PANTHER THEME PLAYS
0:23:13 > 0:23:17WHISPERING
0:23:24 > 0:23:26Just fuck off. I'm trying to sleep.
0:23:29 > 0:23:31THEY LAUGH
0:23:32 > 0:23:34Stupid children.
0:23:34 > 0:23:40That was so funny. Me and you, little troopers, like.
0:23:40 > 0:23:46Well, that's cheered Ryan up, but it's not exactly the mature way of resolving their differences.
0:23:46 > 0:23:48I think Gracie has made people gang up against me.
0:23:48 > 0:23:53I reckon it was her idea with the silly string. Definitely.
0:23:54 > 0:23:57I've always had issues like this and I don't get it.
0:23:57 > 0:24:01Maybe it's the way I'm brought up. Maybe if I was to go downstairs and go "innit"
0:24:01 > 0:24:05and start talking like a chav or a commoner, maybe they'd like me.
0:24:05 > 0:24:10After just one day of living without their parents,
0:24:10 > 0:24:12hopes of them ever maturing are dwindling.
0:24:12 > 0:24:16And, in less than three hours' time, they're going to have to report for work.
0:24:26 > 0:24:30It's six in the morning and the young dumbers should be up and raring to go.
0:24:30 > 0:24:32Oh.
0:24:32 > 0:24:33Oh.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39But, after a night of alcohol-fuelled arguments and only three hours' sleep,
0:24:39 > 0:24:40they're feeling rotten.
0:24:40 > 0:24:45I want a cup of tea and we haven't even got a kettle to boil the water.
0:24:45 > 0:24:48And Gracie's gasping for a cuppa. Only problem is, Sophie decided
0:24:48 > 0:24:51they didn't need a kettle during yesterday's shop.
0:24:51 > 0:24:54Whoever decided to swap the kettle for the hula hoops
0:24:54 > 0:24:57and the party games, they can be blamed for us not having a kettle.
0:24:57 > 0:25:01You can boil water in a fucking pan, it doesn't make any bloody difference.
0:25:01 > 0:25:04It's just stupid. It's just laziness.
0:25:04 > 0:25:08Whatever, yeah, I'm lazy, I don't care. What do you think I'm here for?
0:25:08 > 0:25:11I'm lazy. I ain't trying to pretend that I ain't.
0:25:11 > 0:25:16- I ain't trying to pretend that I ain't lazy.- Been there.- Stupid.
0:25:16 > 0:25:18I'm pissed off.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21I want a cup of tea and now I've got to boil a pan.
0:25:21 > 0:25:23I don't want to.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27Stupid cow.
0:25:27 > 0:25:33While Gracie sulks on the stairs, Enzo does some last-minute cramming for the work placement.
0:25:33 > 0:25:38- The only thing Tom and Jack are working on is their hair.- Can I put those straighteners on?- Yeah.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43Argh!
0:25:43 > 0:25:46Meanwhile, Gracie's morning is going from bad to worse.
0:25:46 > 0:25:48I've got two massive blisters on my feet.
0:25:48 > 0:25:52I can't walk around all day.
0:25:52 > 0:25:54# Hi ho, hi ho
0:25:54 > 0:25:57- ALL:- # It's off to work we go!... #
0:25:58 > 0:26:01Prepared as they'll ever be, the group head off to work,
0:26:01 > 0:26:04but will have to put their differences and blisters
0:26:04 > 0:26:09to one side if they're going to make a good impression on their new employer.
0:26:12 > 0:26:14St Christopher's Village is one of the biggest
0:26:14 > 0:26:19and busiest youth hostels in London. Our young dumbers will have to take charge
0:26:19 > 0:26:21of the daily running of its services
0:26:21 > 0:26:25They'll be supervised by hostel managers Caitlin and Rob,
0:26:25 > 0:26:29who are round the same age as some of our lot but do have proper jobs.
0:26:29 > 0:26:32The people I'm looking to hire are willing to work hard
0:26:32 > 0:26:34and they want to take their job seriously.
0:26:34 > 0:26:37Their working day will be split into two parts.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40In the morning they'll work to a tight deadline, cleaning toilets
0:26:40 > 0:26:43and getting the guest rooms ready.
0:26:43 > 0:26:45I am not doing that.
0:26:45 > 0:26:46They'll have to prepare lunch
0:26:46 > 0:26:49and welcome every guest all in time for a 2pm check-in.
0:26:49 > 0:26:52When do we get the cards for the rooms?
0:26:52 > 0:26:53How many cards will you need?
0:26:53 > 0:26:55- Don't you know that by now?- No.
0:26:55 > 0:26:57Then, later in the afternoon,
0:26:57 > 0:27:00they'll have to take guests out and around London...
0:27:00 > 0:27:02So, if you'd like to follow me.
0:27:02 > 0:27:04..on a history tour of the area
0:27:04 > 0:27:07based on the information they prepared the night before.
0:27:07 > 0:27:08What year was it built?
0:27:08 > 0:27:11I think it was like, olden days.
0:27:11 > 0:27:15Caitlin's team pride themselves on running a professional outfit,
0:27:15 > 0:27:19so any delays or problems will jeopardise the hostel's reputation.
0:27:19 > 0:27:21You're going to run the hostel today.
0:27:21 > 0:27:24We expect from you what we expect from all our staff -
0:27:24 > 0:27:26be professional in the way that you speak to people.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28Be polite, be friendly.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30We have got 210 guests upstairs,
0:27:30 > 0:27:36so they pay money to have a good time, and that's what we're going to be giving them, OK?
0:27:36 > 0:27:38Guys, follow me and we'll get started, OK?
0:27:38 > 0:27:39Oh, my God!
0:27:39 > 0:27:42For one day only, this renowned hostel
0:27:42 > 0:27:45is going to be under new management, young dumb style.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47They'll be working in pairs.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Come round this side of the desk, we'll sort you out, OK?
0:27:50 > 0:27:54Lazy bones Jack and Tom are working the front desk.
0:27:54 > 0:27:57They'll be expected to man the phones and welcome guests.
0:27:57 > 0:27:59You're the first people our guests see, OK?
0:27:59 > 0:28:02You need to be friendly, you need to be happy,
0:28:02 > 0:28:06so they know they've come somewhere where they're welcomed.
0:28:06 > 0:28:07On kitchen duty,
0:28:07 > 0:28:10preparing 30 sandwiches for a school group's lunchtime trip,
0:28:10 > 0:28:12it's mummy's boy Enzo and Ryan.
0:28:12 > 0:28:14Every sandwich has butter,
0:28:14 > 0:28:17mayonnaise, lettuce, cheese and meat, OK?
0:28:17 > 0:28:19Waiting to find out what they'll be doing,
0:28:19 > 0:28:21the girls are split into two camps.
0:28:21 > 0:28:23I get on with her the most out of everybody.
0:28:23 > 0:28:27Sophie and Jade in one, and Ruby Jo and Gracie in the other.
0:28:27 > 0:28:31It's either me and Ruby cleaning the toilets,
0:28:31 > 0:28:33or it's Sophie and Jade cleaning them.
0:28:33 > 0:28:36If I had my way, I'd have her clean toilets with her tongue.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38But it's not to be.
0:28:38 > 0:28:42Baby Jade and posh girl Sophie are put in charge of the dorm rooms.
0:28:42 > 0:28:45Your job is stripping all these beds, cleaning them all,
0:28:45 > 0:28:48and remake the beds, exactly as I show you, OK?
0:28:48 > 0:28:50They'll have just 45 minutes to change 22 beds
0:28:50 > 0:28:52in time for any new guests.
0:28:52 > 0:28:56I've never stayed in a place like this. This is weird.
0:28:56 > 0:28:58It looks as though Daddy's girl Gracie
0:28:58 > 0:29:02and diva Ruby Jo have drawn the short draw
0:29:02 > 0:29:04and will be dealing with some nasties left by travellers.
0:29:04 > 0:29:07Oh! No-o-o-o!
0:29:07 > 0:29:08No, no, no, no!
0:29:08 > 0:29:10Come on, this isn't fair.
0:29:10 > 0:29:14We're the people who least deserve to do this. Why?
0:29:14 > 0:29:18Seriously, do I look like someone who cleans toilets?
0:29:18 > 0:29:20Not really.
0:29:20 > 0:29:23At home in Stockport, Ruby Jo won't even flush her own toilet,
0:29:23 > 0:29:25let alone someone else's.
0:29:28 > 0:29:32Can you remember to flush the toilet, please? I'm sick of asking you.
0:29:32 > 0:29:35Literally, I don't flush anything down the toilet.
0:29:35 > 0:29:38Wees, number twos or periods. It's just a habit.
0:29:38 > 0:29:42With 15 toilets to clean, Ruby Jo is in her element.
0:29:42 > 0:29:45I can smell the shit already.
0:29:45 > 0:29:46All right, so...
0:29:46 > 0:29:49GIRLS COMPLAIN AND MOAN
0:29:49 > 0:29:53If one toilet's going to take this long, we're not going to get anything done!
0:29:53 > 0:29:54Some people do this full-time.
0:29:54 > 0:29:56If they can't even work for 45 minutes,
0:29:56 > 0:29:59then we'll have to see what kind of hope they've got
0:29:59 > 0:30:01for the rest of the years, I suppose.
0:30:05 > 0:30:07Oh, she can't. It's making her sick.
0:30:09 > 0:30:10Down at reception, Tom and Jack
0:30:10 > 0:30:14get the chance to impress manager Rob while manning the phones.
0:30:14 > 0:30:16PHONE RINGS
0:30:16 > 0:30:20Hello, this is St Christopher's...er...Hostel.
0:30:20 > 0:30:22How can I help you?
0:30:22 > 0:30:25Do we have any rooms available tonight?
0:30:25 > 0:30:26We do.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28We do have rooms available tonight.
0:30:29 > 0:30:32All they have to do is take bookings,
0:30:32 > 0:30:34but the only thing they're capable of taking is the piss.
0:30:34 > 0:30:36It could be for five people.
0:30:36 > 0:30:39They want the same room. They all want to share.
0:30:46 > 0:30:50Sorry, sorry, he's a trainee.
0:30:50 > 0:30:52You want to take our names?
0:30:54 > 0:30:55We've been what?
0:30:55 > 0:30:59Um... Enzo and...er...Charlie.
0:30:59 > 0:31:02Clever, cunning, and all on camera.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04Hello?
0:31:04 > 0:31:06What can you do? What can you do?!
0:31:06 > 0:31:09She just hangs up anyway, so that's kind of rude.
0:31:09 > 0:31:10Yeah.
0:31:10 > 0:31:13It's thirsty work for the boys on reception. Rob is disappointed.
0:31:13 > 0:31:16They're not being honest with customers.
0:31:16 > 0:31:19They're being rude to some customers and that's not good enough.
0:31:22 > 0:31:26Clean dorms are essential for any hostel to win repeat business.
0:31:26 > 0:31:29But employees will often have to clean quietly
0:31:29 > 0:31:32around guests sleeping off long-haul flights.
0:31:32 > 0:31:34But, spoilt Sophie...
0:31:34 > 0:31:35Oh, that is manky!
0:31:35 > 0:31:37..and big kid Jade...
0:31:37 > 0:31:39I don't want to find something gross!
0:31:39 > 0:31:41..don't seem to care.
0:31:43 > 0:31:47- Is that it?- I'm just checking this mattress is stable.
0:31:47 > 0:31:51I wouldn't do this at home. It's my mum's job, to be honest.
0:31:51 > 0:31:54I'm going to have a serious scrub when I get home. It's revolting.
0:31:54 > 0:31:57This is just the weirdest thing in the world.
0:31:57 > 0:31:58I would never...
0:31:58 > 0:32:02touch my sister's duvet, let alone some stranger's.
0:32:02 > 0:32:06I feel so dirty right now. I need to shower with, like, bleach.
0:32:06 > 0:32:10Speaking of which, Gracie and Ruby-Jo are still cleaning toilets.
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Oh, my God!
0:32:12 > 0:32:15But are doing a better job of blocking them.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22Oh!!
0:32:22 > 0:32:25It doesn't feel good at all, sticking your hand down a toilet.
0:32:25 > 0:32:28Look, I've still got toilet paper on my gloves.
0:32:28 > 0:32:29Urghhh!
0:32:29 > 0:32:34Despite the fact they've only cleaned five out of 15 toilets,
0:32:34 > 0:32:36it's already too much for Ruby-Jo.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38SHE RETCHES
0:32:40 > 0:32:42I need some fresh air.
0:32:42 > 0:32:45Everyone has a right, if they don't feel well, they can have a break.
0:32:45 > 0:32:49Passing manager Rob on the way.
0:32:49 > 0:32:51Where are you going?
0:32:51 > 0:32:53Fresh air. What the hell..?!
0:32:53 > 0:32:55How long have you been working for?
0:32:55 > 0:32:57Long enough.
0:33:00 > 0:33:03What is there to learn about cleaning shit off a toilet?
0:33:03 > 0:33:05But he's having none of it.
0:33:05 > 0:33:08Get on with it. I'll be back later.
0:33:08 > 0:33:12When you start a new job, they don't expect you to be amazing on the first day.
0:33:12 > 0:33:14They expect us to be pros at cleaning toilets.
0:33:14 > 0:33:19So far, most of them have failed to impress on the very basic of tasks.
0:33:21 > 0:33:23So, it's up to Ryan and mummy's boy Enzo
0:33:23 > 0:33:26to lead the way preparing lunch.
0:33:26 > 0:33:30I've never chopped a tomato before, and I think I'm making quite a...
0:33:30 > 0:33:33I think they want them cut in slices, man!
0:33:33 > 0:33:35I'm trying to, but it won't!
0:33:35 > 0:33:37There's cheese, a gloop of mayo,
0:33:37 > 0:33:42and a simple meat filling. Simple being the operative word.
0:33:42 > 0:33:44Ham comes from...cows?
0:33:44 > 0:33:46Or is that beef?
0:33:46 > 0:33:48No, it's ham as well, isn't it?
0:33:48 > 0:33:52No, I think ham comes... That ham comes from pigs.
0:33:52 > 0:33:53Urgh!
0:33:53 > 0:33:54And then salami is a fish.
0:33:54 > 0:33:57No, it's not!
0:33:57 > 0:33:59It smells like a fish!
0:33:59 > 0:34:02Ah yes, of course. The great white salami fish.
0:34:02 > 0:34:05You can imagine finding a salami in the ocean.
0:34:05 > 0:34:06- Like a salmon or a sardine.- Yeah.
0:34:12 > 0:34:16At reception, 20 German tourists have arrived after a long journey
0:34:16 > 0:34:18and are desperate to get to their rooms.
0:34:18 > 0:34:23It's up to Tom and Jack to show off the best of British hospitality.
0:34:23 > 0:34:25Who are the teachers?
0:34:25 > 0:34:29Lads, perhaps talk to the customers, welcome them.
0:34:29 > 0:34:31OK. Guten tag.
0:34:31 > 0:34:33LAUGHTER
0:34:33 > 0:34:35- Which guys are the teachers?- We are.
0:34:35 > 0:34:38- Just the two teachers?- Yes.- OK.
0:34:38 > 0:34:42So, 16 students, two teachers, and two drivers.
0:34:42 > 0:34:44- So there's 20 people altogether? - Yes.- OK, cool.
0:34:44 > 0:34:48When do we get the cards for the rooms?
0:34:48 > 0:34:52- How many cards will you need? - Don't you know that by now?- No.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55All that's required is for Tom and Jack
0:34:55 > 0:34:58to hand out 20 room passes to their 20 tired guests.
0:34:58 > 0:34:59It's 20, is it?
0:34:59 > 0:35:02- No, there are 15 here. - They need 20. Yes.
0:35:02 > 0:35:05So they need five more, yes?
0:35:05 > 0:35:08While they slide a card through a machine,
0:35:08 > 0:35:11manager Rob reflects on what he's seen so far.
0:35:11 > 0:35:14It makes you despair for humanity sometimes,
0:35:14 > 0:35:15seeing people like this.
0:35:15 > 0:35:18But they're not the only ones under-achieving.
0:35:18 > 0:35:20Toilet seat. I pointed that out before I left.
0:35:20 > 0:35:23That could easily have come off with just a quick wipe.
0:35:23 > 0:35:28To be honest, we will have to get some cleaners up here to go over the ones you've cleaned
0:35:28 > 0:35:31because they're not really in a state we want our guests to see.
0:35:31 > 0:35:36So, after failing to impress manager Caitlin, what have they learned?
0:35:36 > 0:35:39For someone who dislikes doing toilets that much,
0:35:39 > 0:35:41and we've put that much effort into it,
0:35:41 > 0:35:44they could show some appreciation, do you know what I mean?
0:35:44 > 0:35:47Rather than just being stuck-up and total divs.
0:35:47 > 0:35:50I haven't got the energy. I can't do it any more.
0:35:50 > 0:35:52That's a sandwich now, I think.
0:35:52 > 0:35:57Ryan and Enzo put the finishing touches to the 30 sandwiches they were asked to make.
0:35:57 > 0:35:58I'll have a taste.
0:36:01 > 0:36:02It's just a tomato!
0:36:02 > 0:36:06If you think the fact you couldn't make 30 sandwiches is a laughing matter...
0:36:06 > 0:36:12No, no! I apologise for not doing an adequate job. ..Stop laughing!
0:36:12 > 0:36:15Keep laughing boys and clean-up, OK? Thank you.
0:36:15 > 0:36:17They have made a complete salami fish -
0:36:17 > 0:36:21I mean pig's ear - of running the hostel.
0:36:21 > 0:36:24I have never seen such a group with such a negative attitude,
0:36:24 > 0:36:26or such a bad outlook on working before.
0:36:26 > 0:36:27I couldn't believe it.
0:36:27 > 0:36:31They're definitely not people I'd have here, that's for sure.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33Surely the parents aren't going to be impressed with that.
0:36:33 > 0:36:37But, there's one more chance to impress
0:36:37 > 0:36:40as they head into the final stage of the work placement,
0:36:40 > 0:36:43giving a guided tour of London to some foreign visitors.
0:36:43 > 0:36:44Keeping an eye on proceedings
0:36:44 > 0:36:47will be some young but super-experienced guides.
0:36:49 > 0:36:51Last night, the group were given all the information they'd need
0:36:51 > 0:36:55to carry out their tours today. In theory, this should be a doddle.
0:36:55 > 0:36:58People will expect you to know what you're talking about.
0:36:58 > 0:37:02Hopefully you've read your packs, so you've got everything you need.
0:37:02 > 0:37:03If they do well,
0:37:03 > 0:37:06they can make some much-needed money in the form of tips.
0:37:06 > 0:37:08Everything you make is yours to keep.
0:37:08 > 0:37:10Oh, my God, we'll be eating tonight!
0:37:14 > 0:37:16Two groups set out first.
0:37:16 > 0:37:19Tour guides Fraser and Ben are shadowing Sophie and Jade.
0:37:19 > 0:37:22- Hello, everyone! - Everyone all right?
0:37:22 > 0:37:23ALL: Yes!
0:37:23 > 0:37:27In the other group, Matt and Dave keep an eye on Ryan and Enzo.
0:37:27 > 0:37:32- Welcome to the tour. My name is Enzo.- I'm Ryan.
0:37:32 > 0:37:35We're going to show you landmarks of London. So, follow me...
0:37:35 > 0:37:38They're leading parties of tourists around London,
0:37:38 > 0:37:40some of whom are visiting for the first time.
0:37:40 > 0:37:46If we get tips, we're going to buy alcohol, more alcohol, and more alcohol.
0:37:46 > 0:37:48And more alcohol!
0:37:48 > 0:37:52Sophie and Jade's first stop is Borough Market,
0:37:52 > 0:37:55and they seem to be making an impression already.
0:37:58 > 0:38:00Oh, thank you so much!
0:38:00 > 0:38:04Can they remember enough facts to carry out an informative tour?
0:38:04 > 0:38:06This is Bureau Market...
0:38:06 > 0:38:08Better known as Borough Market.
0:38:08 > 0:38:12It is one of the oldest...um...
0:38:12 > 0:38:14markets in London.
0:38:14 > 0:38:16Like, here as well is where, um...
0:38:19 > 0:38:20Sorry. Um...
0:38:20 > 0:38:26Famous chefs on TV and stuff, they buy their food here as well.
0:38:26 > 0:38:31Is anyone, like, quite surprised or...
0:38:31 > 0:38:36Surprised, shocked, dumbfounded? Wishing they'd got different tour guides? All of those things.
0:38:36 > 0:38:39We're going to head on to our next place. Yes, right. OK.
0:38:39 > 0:38:40That went really badly.
0:38:40 > 0:38:44We should have just basically said,
0:38:44 > 0:38:48"we don't know anything about this market. You might as well go home."
0:38:50 > 0:38:52Enzo and Ryan's first stop is Tower Bridge.
0:38:52 > 0:38:54I'm so scared now.
0:38:54 > 0:38:57A tour guide's number-one rule is to confidently deliver facts
0:38:57 > 0:38:59in a clear and concise way,
0:38:59 > 0:39:02and Ryan is starting to feel the pressure.
0:39:02 > 0:39:05I'm most nervous about both the talking and the facts.
0:39:05 > 0:39:08I've forgotten most of the facts already.
0:39:08 > 0:39:10This in front of you is the Tower Bridge.
0:39:10 > 0:39:13It was built in the reign of Queen Victoria.
0:39:13 > 0:39:16That's quite a big thing, I think.
0:39:16 > 0:39:20When it was first built, like, she didn't like the design.
0:39:20 > 0:39:23I don't know... Argh!
0:39:23 > 0:39:27He's out of facts and lost the crowd. He needs something juicy to pull this back.
0:39:27 > 0:39:31I know this is random, but you can take two sheep across...
0:39:31 > 0:39:34You can't take one sheep and you can't take three sheep,
0:39:34 > 0:39:37but if you wanted to take sheep over, you can take two.
0:39:37 > 0:39:40Got them with a cheeky sheep anecdote!
0:39:40 > 0:39:41Just gather round...
0:39:41 > 0:39:44Also taking an unorthodox approach to the job is Jade,
0:39:44 > 0:39:47who's about to lead her group over the Millennium Bridge.
0:39:47 > 0:39:50If you're going to throw up, go to the side to throw up.
0:39:50 > 0:39:54We don't want to slip on your sick. It's not cool.
0:39:54 > 0:39:57Yes, welcome to London, where it's not cool to slip on your sick.
0:39:59 > 0:40:02But, despite knowing nothing about anything,
0:40:02 > 0:40:05the girls can't put a foot wrong with one member of their group.
0:40:05 > 0:40:10Very nice. Beautiful smile, and smart.
0:40:10 > 0:40:12I like.
0:40:15 > 0:40:18After Ryan's shoddy display of history,
0:40:18 > 0:40:21it's up to Enzo to lead the tour, the only one who did swot up.
0:40:21 > 0:40:23This is the Monument.
0:40:23 > 0:40:27It was erected in 1677,
0:40:27 > 0:40:31and it's a memorial for all the people who lost their lives
0:40:31 > 0:40:33and their homes
0:40:33 > 0:40:35in the Great Fire of London.
0:40:35 > 0:40:38It looks like his homework has paid off.
0:40:38 > 0:40:39Very good.
0:40:39 > 0:40:41Spot on.
0:40:41 > 0:40:43The two groups have come to the end of their tours.
0:40:43 > 0:40:47Time to see if they've made any money to bump up their allowance.
0:40:47 > 0:40:48We do accept tips...
0:40:48 > 0:40:50LAUGHTER
0:40:50 > 0:40:52So that's a no then.
0:40:52 > 0:40:54I've got a tip. Never do this job again.
0:40:54 > 0:40:56They thought we were joking.
0:40:56 > 0:40:59Perhaps Enzo and Ryan will do better.
0:40:59 > 0:41:02- I hope you enjoyed the tour. - Thank you so much.- Thank you.
0:41:02 > 0:41:04You're welcome.
0:41:04 > 0:41:06But they make a schoolboy error.
0:41:06 > 0:41:09One big thing that you both forgot is no mention of the tips.
0:41:09 > 0:41:12- And it's cost them. - What are you going to do now?
0:41:12 > 0:41:15I guess it's just cheap noodle food for us again.
0:41:18 > 0:41:21The last tours of the day will be given by Jack and Tom,
0:41:21 > 0:41:23and by Ruby-Jo and Gracie.
0:41:23 > 0:41:27Like the others, they're supervised by experienced tour guides.
0:41:27 > 0:41:29But disaster strikes.
0:41:29 > 0:41:32Gracie's poor little blister is causing her problems.
0:41:32 > 0:41:33I can't do it.
0:41:33 > 0:41:37I can't do it. What am I supposed to do about my foot?
0:41:37 > 0:41:40- Strap it up and carry on. - But it hurts.
0:41:40 > 0:41:43So? Things like this happen in life.
0:41:43 > 0:41:44You just have to carry on with it.
0:41:44 > 0:41:48Gracie's dropped out and left it up to Ruby-Jo to give the tour,
0:41:48 > 0:41:50meaning she's not only failed to see the day through,
0:41:50 > 0:41:53but she's also missed out on making some money in tips.
0:41:54 > 0:41:59I get blisters on a night out and I'll carry on dancing all night.
0:41:59 > 0:42:01But, you know, some people just can't hack the pain.
0:42:04 > 0:42:08At least Tom and Jack are able to give their history tour of the area.
0:42:08 > 0:42:12- This is Borough Market. - I say history tour...
0:42:12 > 0:42:15I actually mean "lying to tourists" tour.
0:42:15 > 0:42:16When is the best day to come down?
0:42:16 > 0:42:20Sunday? Because that's like, fisherman's day?
0:42:20 > 0:42:22- Sunday, that's market day. - Everyone knows.
0:42:22 > 0:42:24Everyone knows it's market day, don't they?
0:42:24 > 0:42:26The market is actually closed on Sundays.
0:42:26 > 0:42:28Only open Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
0:42:28 > 0:42:31Right, now let's stop here quickly.
0:42:31 > 0:42:36What else will they come up with at the replica of the Globe Theatre?
0:42:36 > 0:42:39William Shakespeare, he used to do plays and stuff here.
0:42:39 > 0:42:41Which year was it built?
0:42:41 > 0:42:47What year was it built? I think it was like, olden days.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49Like the medieval times.
0:42:49 > 0:42:52Yes, I think it was medieval times.
0:42:52 > 0:42:54They seemed to pull it off quite well. They're quite confident
0:42:54 > 0:42:56in what they're saying, but it's utter nonsense.
0:42:56 > 0:43:00Don't laugh at us, guys, we're giving you great information!
0:43:00 > 0:43:04But tour guide Ben isn't seeing the funny side of rewriting history.
0:43:04 > 0:43:07So don't lie! You can't lie because you're changing history.
0:43:07 > 0:43:09You're changing the way people see things and this is going to be
0:43:09 > 0:43:12remembered by people for years and years after that.
0:43:12 > 0:43:15The cardinal rule is don't make stuff up.
0:43:15 > 0:43:19Abandoned by Gracie, Ruby-Jo soldiers on.
0:43:20 > 0:43:22Behind us is the Tower of London...
0:43:22 > 0:43:26Which was originally built by William the Conqueror, who was better known as...
0:43:26 > 0:43:29He's just this random guy who decided to come over and conquer England.
0:43:29 > 0:43:33Do you know how long it took for the Tower to be built?
0:43:33 > 0:43:36It took ages to be built, yeah.
0:43:37 > 0:43:41Using the same blagging techniques as the boys, she should have some insightful information
0:43:41 > 0:43:44about City Hall, the last stop on her tour.
0:43:44 > 0:43:48It looks a bit like an egg, it's a weird shape.
0:43:48 > 0:43:51I like the purple bit at the top.
0:43:51 > 0:43:54What's at the top?
0:43:54 > 0:43:56I think it's a gym at the top.
0:43:56 > 0:43:57LAUGHTER
0:43:57 > 0:44:00She definitely has her own, unique style. I think if this was an audition tour,
0:44:00 > 0:44:02which is what we do day in, day out, what we do for a living,
0:44:02 > 0:44:06I think by this point we would have stopped it already and she would be going home.
0:44:10 > 0:44:16So that's it. Ruby-Jo, Gracie, Tom and Jack are all done for the day...
0:44:16 > 0:44:19but were their tours a success?
0:44:19 > 0:44:22Probably about 70% was made up.
0:44:22 > 0:44:25Everything is built during medieval times.
0:44:25 > 0:44:30I learn more if I take a free guide of London in the Tube.
0:44:31 > 0:44:33But, crucially, have they made any money?
0:44:33 > 0:44:38- You can tip us if you want.- Or just buy us a drink later.
0:44:38 > 0:44:42That's a no then. Still, if you don't ask you don't get.
0:44:42 > 0:44:46I can categorically say I would not offer them employment as tour guides of London.
0:44:46 > 0:44:52- Ah, thanks!- Ruby-Jo has amazingly managed to get some tips.
0:44:52 > 0:44:53Maybe they felt sorry for her.
0:44:53 > 0:44:58- Thanks!- Now you can have dinner. - I know, now I can eat! Thank you.
0:44:58 > 0:45:01I did it on my own and I've come back with £5.92, I'm so proud of myself.
0:45:01 > 0:45:07She stepped up to the plate, she did come and do the tour and for that she should be proud of herself.
0:45:07 > 0:45:09But beyond that, the effort was minimal.
0:45:09 > 0:45:15So, today has been pretty disastrous on every level for our bunch of fools.
0:45:15 > 0:45:18They've failed to complete basic tasks running the hostel,
0:45:18 > 0:45:22and barely managed to hold some simple facts in their brains while taking the guided tours.
0:45:22 > 0:45:24So, what exactly did they learn?
0:45:24 > 0:45:31I've learnt a salami is not a fish, it's part of a pig, and that's about it really.
0:45:31 > 0:45:35And even though she's been sitting on her backside for most of the day,
0:45:35 > 0:45:37Gracie has learnt some important life lessons as well.
0:45:37 > 0:45:41I've learnt today that I just need to take it a bit more easy.
0:45:41 > 0:45:44Whilst Ryan and Gracie feel that they've made new discoveries,
0:45:44 > 0:45:48these probably aren't the life lessons their parents hoped
0:45:48 > 0:45:50they'd take away from their first day at work.
0:46:01 > 0:46:03It's a new day and tomorrow will be the first elimination,
0:46:03 > 0:46:08where the parents will decide which one of our useless lot will be going home.
0:46:08 > 0:46:12The other night, when she was saying that about gays having kids...
0:46:12 > 0:46:14We were all kind of shocked.
0:46:14 > 0:46:18Most of the group think it should be Sophie who goes home,
0:46:18 > 0:46:20because of what she said earlier in the week to Ryan.
0:46:20 > 0:46:25Being the only gay in the house, you're on your own. We're all behind you.
0:46:25 > 0:46:28And talking about what happened has upset Ryan again.
0:46:28 > 0:46:33I'm not used to people being like that. Like, I came out when I was 12.
0:46:33 > 0:46:37Obviously I used to get comments back then, and stuff like that.
0:46:37 > 0:46:40But people have grown out of it, like, it's 2011...
0:46:48 > 0:46:52She makes me so angry, I just don't want to be in there any more.
0:46:52 > 0:46:56Back inside the house, the group have come up with a solution.
0:46:56 > 0:47:01- We should have a house meeting. - I'm going to call one right now.
0:47:01 > 0:47:02Get everyone down here.
0:47:02 > 0:47:09Ah, a glimmer of hope. This might be the first sensible idea they've had all week.
0:47:09 > 0:47:13- Sophie, we're all going to have a house meeting downstairs.- All right.
0:47:17 > 0:47:21A gay person in a house with someone who makes homophobic comments,
0:47:21 > 0:47:24whether they're meant in a homophobic way or not, they're homophobic.
0:47:24 > 0:47:28All I said was every child deserves a mother and a father, that's all.
0:47:28 > 0:47:30No! Every child deserves two parents who love it!
0:47:30 > 0:47:34Doesn't matter whether it's two women, two men, a man and woman...
0:47:34 > 0:47:36It may be offensive, but everyone's entitled to their opinion,
0:47:36 > 0:47:38so I don't understand why it's dragged out.
0:47:38 > 0:47:42The meeting isn't going the way everyone hoped and Gracie struggles to contain herself.
0:47:42 > 0:47:47So if I came up to you and said I think you're stuck up and rude
0:47:47 > 0:47:51and horrible and a really big bitch, cos that is what I think,
0:47:51 > 0:47:56and I can't take living with you because you're rude. I feel so sorry for Ryan because
0:47:56 > 0:48:00- you're mentally abusing him... - Oh, my God, how can you say that? Oh, just fuck off.
0:48:00 > 0:48:04See what I mean? "Just fuck off." Well, none of us like you, Sophie.
0:48:06 > 0:48:07Yeah.
0:48:09 > 0:48:13Your dad sounds like a narrow-minded person to me.
0:48:13 > 0:48:16You've no right to fucking offend him, you don't fucking know who he is.
0:48:16 > 0:48:20That pisses me off, don't say anything about my dad!
0:48:20 > 0:48:25Don't you fucking dare! You can call me narrow-minded, don't call my fucking dad it.
0:48:25 > 0:48:27You're both it! If that's what you believe...
0:48:27 > 0:48:32I'm going to fucking hit someone, I really need to get some space. Oooh, fucking hell!
0:48:34 > 0:48:35Meeting adjourned, then?
0:48:40 > 0:48:42It may have upset him, I just think he needs to fucking grow up
0:48:42 > 0:48:44and act like an adult and fucking get over it.
0:48:44 > 0:48:50- Ryan, man... Don't worry, you're a lovely guy.- Cheers.- Cool.
0:48:50 > 0:48:55She is just a knob, to be honest. It's like, "Get a grip, love!"
0:48:55 > 0:49:00You're insulting millions of people. The second we say something that insults you, you kick off?
0:49:00 > 0:49:04I haven't kicked off at all. You know? She needs to deal with it.
0:49:12 > 0:49:15Unaware there are tensions in the house, the parents are meeting up
0:49:15 > 0:49:20to see how their kids have got on with their first taste of adult life.
0:49:21 > 0:49:23Whoever has made the least effort is heading home,
0:49:23 > 0:49:27and to help make their decision, they'll be watching footage of the week's event.
0:49:27 > 0:49:30It's not going to be an easy watch.
0:49:37 > 0:49:39I felt a bit disappointed with the girls.
0:49:39 > 0:49:43I didn't think that was very grown-up and responsible, to be honest.
0:49:44 > 0:49:45That's very embarrassing.
0:49:45 > 0:49:49It was the actions of a 14, 15 year old, rather than an 18-20 year old.
0:49:51 > 0:49:52At work, Jack and Tom prove
0:49:52 > 0:49:55they can't be trusted with responsibility.
0:49:55 > 0:50:01Er, you want to take our names? Enzo, and er... Charlie.
0:50:01 > 0:50:04I mean, does your son actually work?
0:50:04 > 0:50:06- Never.- You can't mess around on the phone to a client,
0:50:06 > 0:50:08because you're not going to get a second chance.
0:50:10 > 0:50:16And there was little change in Ruby-Jo's aversion to domestic chores.
0:50:17 > 0:50:20What more is there to learn about cleaning shit out of the toilet?
0:50:20 > 0:50:22She doesn't flush the toilet at home, Ruby.
0:50:22 > 0:50:27It was the nature of the job that made her go over the top and be a bit silly.
0:50:27 > 0:50:31Somebody has to do it, though. I do that job.
0:50:31 > 0:50:34I dread to think, when they have got to move out.
0:50:34 > 0:50:35I don't know how they're going to manage.
0:50:35 > 0:50:38On the tour, Enzo got his facts straight.
0:50:38 > 0:50:45It was erected in 1677, for all the people who lost their lives and their homes
0:50:45 > 0:50:47in the Great Fire of London.
0:50:47 > 0:50:50Enzo had a remarkable memory for some of that stuff.
0:50:50 > 0:50:53I was amazed, the way he actually coped.
0:50:53 > 0:50:56But Ryan got his facts in a twist.
0:50:56 > 0:51:01I'm most nervous about both the talking and the facts. I don't know. Agh!
0:51:01 > 0:51:05I'm very surprised at that, because Ryan's got good people skills
0:51:05 > 0:51:07so I thought that would have been a good thing for him.
0:51:07 > 0:51:09And then there was Gracie's blister...
0:51:09 > 0:51:11I can't do it.
0:51:13 > 0:51:16Some people just can't hack the pain.
0:51:16 > 0:51:21I think Gracie let Ruby down. Being grown up...you have to do things,
0:51:21 > 0:51:26even if it is uncomfortable, you're just going to have to get on with it.
0:51:26 > 0:51:29I'd agree with Ruby. Get on with it!
0:51:29 > 0:51:32But it's the way the group have failed to get on with one another
0:51:32 > 0:51:35that's of most concern to the parents.
0:51:35 > 0:51:39I'm totally against like, two guys having a kid. I think that's completely wrong.
0:51:39 > 0:51:42That really affects me, I feel like crying, but I'm not going to because there's a camera on me.
0:51:42 > 0:51:47To have a discussion is one thing, but to go into one like that...
0:51:47 > 0:51:51- I think is too much. - But Ryan can handle himself in that situation.
0:51:51 > 0:51:54You know, he's been dealing with that since the age of 13.
0:51:54 > 0:51:58She's not anti gay people, it's not homophobic in any way at all.
0:51:58 > 0:52:01But it's just this thing about adopting children,
0:52:01 > 0:52:04and people do have conversations in the real world about that.
0:52:04 > 0:52:09It's a very complex discussion, and you can't talk about it
0:52:09 > 0:52:12in three minutes amongst teenagers.
0:52:12 > 0:52:13We've all got different opinions.
0:52:13 > 0:52:18But I think what we do, we don't air them at certain times.
0:52:18 > 0:52:23I think you're stuck up, and rude, and horrible, and a really big bitch,
0:52:23 > 0:52:26and I feel so sorry for Ryan, because you're mentally abusing him.
0:52:26 > 0:52:29Oh, my God, how can you say that? Just fuck off.
0:52:29 > 0:52:34See what I mean? Just fuck off? Well, none of us like you, Sophie!
0:52:34 > 0:52:37To be honest, I wasn't particularly pleased with Grace at the table.
0:52:37 > 0:52:40I thought it was a bit unfair of her to put your daughter in that position that she did.
0:52:40 > 0:52:45It's obviously causing disharmony now with them all, isn't it?
0:52:45 > 0:52:51After watching the footage, the parents choose three kids they think have made the least effort.
0:52:51 > 0:52:53But only one of them will be sent home.
0:52:53 > 0:52:57I think that's a really difficult thing to do.
0:52:57 > 0:53:02Gracie... I think she could have tried. With anything in life, you've got to try.
0:53:02 > 0:53:04Even if you don't succeed.
0:53:04 > 0:53:09Tom and Jack, they just started having a laugh and making things up on the phone.
0:53:09 > 0:53:11That probably wasn't very professional.
0:53:11 > 0:53:16I mean, if that was an actual client, the client could be on the phone thinking,
0:53:16 > 0:53:17"He's taking the piss out of me."
0:53:18 > 0:53:22Ryan on the tour...was poor.
0:53:23 > 0:53:30Sophie, just because I think she might have a hard time if she stays in any longer.
0:53:34 > 0:53:36Once a decision is reached, the parents of the kids
0:53:37 > 0:53:39in the bottom three head over to the house with the result.
0:53:41 > 0:53:44The Young Dumbers have no idea which parents
0:53:44 > 0:53:47will be walking through the door to announce the verdict.
0:53:53 > 0:53:57The parents have decided that Sophie, Ryan and Gracie are in the bottom three.
0:53:57 > 0:54:00There's three of us here, it's not rocket science,
0:54:00 > 0:54:04so those of you who aren't our children can leave.
0:54:04 > 0:54:07But only one of them will be leaving the house for good.
0:54:10 > 0:54:13Grace, you could have completed the task.
0:54:13 > 0:54:15It's important that you complete a task, when you're given it.
0:54:15 > 0:54:17That's what's going to happen in your life.
0:54:17 > 0:54:20- I just couldn't do it. - I don't know, put some Vaseline on it, or go barefooted!
0:54:20 > 0:54:23- I weren't going to do it barefoot. - Just try.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26The tour... I was a bit disappointed.
0:54:26 > 0:54:32I don't think you tried your hardest with that, and the argument in the house...
0:54:32 > 0:54:35You're a good lad for standing by what you think.
0:54:35 > 0:54:40I think it's got blown out of proportion, but you stand by what you believe.
0:54:40 > 0:54:44Sophie, the discussions you were having, which seemed to upset everyone.
0:54:44 > 0:54:51I'm sure you would have learnt about raising sensitive issues in a closed environment.
0:54:51 > 0:54:54- It is really nerve-wracking, isn't it?- Yeah.
0:54:54 > 0:54:59I've got a bad feeling. I didn't expect Ryan to be in the bottom three.
0:55:02 > 0:55:04It's time to put the three Young Dumbers out of their misery.
0:55:08 > 0:55:12The verdict we've decided, for the harmony of the house, is for you to leave, Sophie.
0:55:12 > 0:55:15Yes, I was leaving anyway after this.
0:55:17 > 0:55:22Which means Ryan and Gracie are safe for now.
0:55:23 > 0:55:27CHEERING AND LAUGHTER
0:55:27 > 0:55:32Back downstairs, Sophie's dad is talking to her about making some changes.
0:55:32 > 0:55:34It's time to look for a job.
0:55:34 > 0:55:38No, it's the summer holidays! I'm not working over the summer.
0:55:38 > 0:55:40But some things never change.
0:55:40 > 0:55:41I'm planning a round-the-world trip myself.
0:55:41 > 0:55:45I just need to go, "Daddy, please!" and I'll get it.
0:55:45 > 0:55:48It looks like Sophie is right back where she started -
0:55:48 > 0:55:51Young Dumb And Living Off Mum.
0:55:51 > 0:55:53Next time...
0:55:55 > 0:55:59This bunch of no-hopers become fish traders on their second task.
0:55:59 > 0:56:01No, I've got a phobia!
0:56:01 > 0:56:04This is harder than cleaning the shit out of the toilet!
0:56:04 > 0:56:06Mummy's boy Enzo gets homesick.
0:56:06 > 0:56:09I didn't realize how hard it was going to be for me...
0:56:13 > 0:56:15..just to leave my family.
0:56:15 > 0:56:18And a row breaks out over a cleaning rota.
0:56:18 > 0:56:21Did you see what down there was like? Fucking disgusting.
0:56:21 > 0:56:24- Behind those sofas was disgusting.- I don't care!
