A group of eight 18 to 20yearolds who have been waited on hand and foot all their whole lives are thrust into the adult world of responsibility. They must live together in a house and fend for themselves, live on a basic weekly budget and take part in tough work challenges.

Their parents watch exactly what their kids have been up to, and the one they judge the most useless is sent packing. Ultimately only one will win the prize of a roundtheworld trip, as well as earning their parents' pride.

With just seven of the group remaining, Ryan faces his worst nightmare when the workshy bunch are given the gruesome job of a night shift at a fish market. The experience of life without his parents proves too much for Enzo and war breaks out over a cleaning rota.
