00:00:00In Britain, the top 10% own over half the country's wealth.
00:00:06I have nice cars, I own a couple of resources.
00:00:09It feels nice to have money.
00:00:12But while the rich are getting richer...
00:00:14It's a very profitable business that turns over well over £10 million a year.
00:00:18The poor are getting poorer.
00:00:21It's tough.
00:00:22Hit hard by relentless price rises.
00:00:25A lot of posh people think poor people just sit on their bums all day on benefits.
00:00:29Once we've spent on food, don't really have anything left over.
00:00:33I had bailiffs come in.
00:00:36Might be on its way out.
00:00:38Now, two families are swapping homes.
00:00:42That is very different.
00:00:44Yes.
00:00:44How many windows does the house need?
00:00:46How many doors?
00:00:48Budgets.
00:00:49Right, this is where I get serious.
00:00:50Oh, God.
00:00:53And lives.
00:00:54It's our bloody work.
00:00:55It was way more challenging than I thought it would be.
00:00:59Champagne!
00:01:00I'm in heaven.
00:01:01To find out if money really does buy happiness.
00:01:06I love to have a walk in order.
00:01:08Oh, my goodness!
00:01:11Never been in the limo in the last.
00:01:14Or do people matter most?
00:01:16This is the nicest family time that us three have had together in years.
00:01:21And when they finally meet...
00:01:23Hello!
00:01:25...lives are changed forever.
00:01:27We'd like to gift you a van.
00:01:31We want to back your vision to a value of £100,000.
00:01:35Oh, my God!
00:01:36It's going to change everything for the better.
00:01:41London.
00:01:43Home to some of the world's wealthiest people.
00:01:47And in Westminster, one of the capital's most prestigious postcodes, live multimillionaire plumbing entrepreneurs Scott and Sam Mullins.
00:01:56We're not massive drinkers.
00:01:58Just every night, really.
00:02:00Not any more, are we?
00:02:01This is just an ideal location, isn't it?
00:02:03Great location, great views.
00:02:05Best spot.
00:02:06Yeah, this is our spot we enjoy, don't we?
00:02:07Just having a glass of wine or a cup of tea in the morning, isn't it?
00:02:11But it ticks everything, doesn't it?
00:02:12It does.
00:02:13Overlooking the Thames, this £12 million penthouse has outside seating for ten.
00:02:20And a massive kitchen, dining, living area.
00:02:24With a £100,000 Steinway piano and private bar.
00:02:29We enjoy drinking and entertaining, having a family round.
00:02:33You know, have we got any skills on the piano?
00:02:35None at all.
00:02:35Fat sausage fingers.
00:02:38Three oversized bedrooms are draped in Versace linen.
00:02:42Each with its own luxury en suite.
00:02:45And two private lifts that open straight into the main hallway.
00:02:49Comes up which side?
00:02:50It becomes this side, the lights on.
00:02:52That lift's coming first.
00:02:53It becomes this side with the light on.
00:02:55Obviously, that lift will come first.
00:02:57Housekeeper Natalie has been with Scott and Sam for over ten years.
00:03:01They're busy people, most of us 24 hours of thinking just about the business.
00:03:07Always writing something on the phone.
00:03:09Natalie's the go-to lady.
00:03:11She does everything.
00:03:12She cooks when we're here.
00:03:14She cleans.
00:03:15She irons.
00:03:16She washes.
00:03:17Everyone needs a Natalie, doesn't she?
00:03:18Everyone needs a Natalie.
00:03:21And Natalie joins them when they escape to their £5 million Spanish villa.
00:03:26Spend a lot of time in our Marbella house.
00:03:28Just a great place for us and the family.
00:03:30We're fortunate enough, if flights are busy, we'll get on a private jet.
00:03:33Yeah.
00:03:34Any further than that, yeah?
00:03:35Their fortune comes from Dad Charlie's plumbing empire that Scott helped build from nothing.
00:03:41He bought a basement in 1979 in Pimlico.
00:03:45He went from a one-man band.
00:03:47And then in 2021, we sold the business for 150 mil.
00:03:54Scott and Sam have led the rich life for 30 years, but their beginnings were far more humble.
00:04:00We weren't born into money.
00:04:01Even at an early age then, my dad would say to me, look, phone calls would come through to our
00:04:05house phone at night.
00:04:06He said, you pick it up, you show who we are, we say we're £35 an hour.
00:04:10That's what we was then.
00:04:12It's been far from plain sailing.
00:04:15Last year, Scott had a near-fatal health scare due to blocked arteries.
00:04:20Got tight-chested in the gym and they had a look at me and said, look, your arteries are blocked.
00:04:25Could have been retired and two months later, boom, brown bread.
00:04:28They did say stress was a massive factor.
00:04:31Yeah, it was a massive shock to the family, massive.
00:04:34Scott has two grown-up children who've moved out now.
00:04:37But if the health scare was a warning, he's probably not listening.
00:04:42In 2024, he launched another trades business, offering plumbing to plastering.
00:04:48That already has a £5 million turnover.
00:04:50I just want to go through the departments like we normally do,
00:04:53just trying to know where we're going, what we're doing and how we're pushing.
00:04:56When Scott does something, he's gung-ho.
00:04:58He'll do it.
00:05:02You're totally...
00:05:04You're a workaholic.
00:05:06Yeah.
00:05:0912 miles away in North Holt, there's another couple working the trades
00:05:14who lead a very different life.
00:05:16Probably we know each other more than anybody.
00:05:18She knows me better than myself.
00:05:20Yeah.
00:05:21Same.
00:05:22Plaster Ali and Gardner Laura live in a top-floor flat
00:05:26with nine-year-old twins Katie and Sadie,
00:05:29an older brother who's away with his gran for the week.
00:05:32Look at you two.
00:05:34Come on, show us the game.
00:05:35Danny, I've got to do this.
00:05:36Perfect.
00:05:38Excellent.
00:05:39Having fun.
00:05:40The flat has a tiny kitchen and living room
00:05:43with a single bathroom that has seen better days.
00:05:47Our bathroom tap has broken.
00:05:51Hell yeah.
00:05:52I'm going to brush my teeth.
00:05:53So, at the moment, we've got the whole family cleaning our teeth
00:05:57in the kitchen sink.
00:05:59Two bedrooms mean Lee and Laura often give up theirs for the kids.
00:06:03We've done blow-up beds.
00:06:05Blow-up beds.
00:06:06They're the worst.
00:06:06Yeah, they just keep popping.
00:06:08So, now we're just subjected to a sofa.
00:06:10To sleeping on the sofa.
00:06:12There's no money to move or improve.
00:06:15Lee's self-employed, and his plastering work is job to job.
00:06:19I work for different people here and there, and I also get my own jobs in.
00:06:26Lee's desperate to bring in more cash, but has a problem.
00:06:29I think I would be more successful in my business if I actually drove
00:06:33and had the driving licence in a van.
00:06:35Then I could probably get a lot more work in.
00:06:38A fear of failing his test is holding Lee back.
00:06:42I don't really have much faith in myself to do driving lessons and things like that.
00:06:46I would like Lee to have more confidence, definitely.
00:06:49I think he just shies away from having his own business and the paperwork.
00:06:56Laura does as much gardening as she can around the twins,
00:06:59but it's hard, low-paid work.
00:07:01Let's put it this way.
00:07:02I do not ever need to go to the gym,
00:07:04because I do work out when I'm gardening.
00:07:07After bills, Lee and Laura have just £87.20 a week to live on.
00:07:13No more... Don't eat all the cheese.
00:07:14You won't have nothing for your pasta.
00:07:15Is that your mess?
00:07:16Oh, that's kind of you.
00:07:17No, you have it, darling.
00:07:18The rent for this property is £1,325 a month.
00:07:23It's like over half of my wages,
00:07:26and that's without even doing council tax, gas, electric, food shop.
00:07:30Daddy!
00:07:32Yeah?
00:07:33Time to come and chill out.
00:07:35Coming!
00:07:37Worrying about their finances has put a big strain on Lee and Laura's relationship.
00:07:42If we didn't have money struggles,
00:07:43I think we wouldn't argue nearly as much as we do.
00:07:47Yeah, I think we'd come together more that way.
00:07:50The biggest stress is...
00:07:51It would take a lot of the stress away.
00:07:53So, what are Lee and Laura's reasons for going on the swap?
00:07:57What is it like to be on the rich side instead of on the poor side?
00:08:02I think it would be a massive eye-opener.
00:08:05And it might give me the push that I need to move up a level
00:08:10to get where I should be.
00:08:12And they have high hopes the week will help their relationship.
00:08:16There's got to be something else we can learn about each other after these many years.
00:08:19Yeah.
00:08:20So, let's see if we find out.
00:08:22As for multimillionaires Sam and Scott,
00:08:24they're looking to change lives for the better.
00:08:27If it's one person, two people that we can do something for,
00:08:30decent people, then that will be rewarding.
00:08:34And Sam has another motive.
00:08:36Ever since Scott's near-fatal health scare,
00:08:39she's been looking for ways to slow him down.
00:08:42Get Scott to relax a bit.
00:08:45My, uh...
00:08:46Relax? I want a budget.
00:08:47And what?
00:08:49She's going to be tough.
00:08:51Day one.
00:08:53Anticipation is building for the swap.
00:08:56Do you know what I feel bad about?
00:08:57The tap.
00:08:58The tap.
00:09:00Thanks Natalie, see you soon.
00:09:01Yeah, thank you.
00:09:02See you.
00:09:02This is it then.
00:09:04The twins are joining mum and dad after school
00:09:06and are missing a big surprise.
00:09:10Scott has sent his Bentley with his chauffeur
00:09:13to pick up Lee and Laura.
00:09:15Oh, look at this Bentley boy.
00:09:18Look at that.
00:09:19Wow.
00:09:20Look at that.
00:09:22My God.
00:09:22Living the high life.
00:09:24Yeah.
00:09:24Job's done, yeah?
00:09:25Job's done.
00:09:26Sky.
00:09:27Oh my gosh.
00:09:28Oh my gosh.
00:09:30It's beautiful.
00:09:31It's just a 40-minute drive between the two homes,
00:09:34but in reality, they are worlds apart.
00:09:37Go ahead and straight for this river, Lee.
00:09:41Yeah.
00:09:42Yes.
00:09:43Okay.
00:09:44Nice.
00:09:45Yeah.
00:09:48Oh, stop it.
00:09:50Oh my gosh.
00:09:52Access to the penthouse is via a private underground car park
00:09:56where there's a lift straight to the front door.
00:09:59Can't believe it.
00:10:00Look where we are.
00:10:01I know.
00:10:02Maybe you're in parking space.
00:10:03This is mad.
00:10:05Onwards and upwards, right?
00:10:07Yes.
00:10:07Let's go this.
00:10:08Go.
00:10:13Oh my God.
00:10:16Oh my gosh.
00:10:18Let's take Sam's shoes up.
00:10:20Oh, very funny.
00:10:22Oh my God.
00:10:22Oh my word.
00:10:24Oh my God.
00:10:26Oh, wow.
00:10:27Yeah, no.
00:10:28There's a bar.
00:10:32This should be the front room.
00:10:36Oh my God.
00:10:37Look at the size of that.
00:10:39That is huge.
00:10:40Look at the chocolates.
00:10:41No, don't.
00:10:42I've got a sweet.
00:10:42Oh my God.
00:10:43They're my favourites.
00:10:44The first challenge for both families is to play detective and discover clues about their mystery
00:10:50hosts.
00:10:51Oh yeah.
00:10:52That's his business there.
00:10:53That's who it is.
00:10:54Look.
00:10:55Scott Mullins.
00:10:56Scott Mullins.
00:11:14During the week, everyone has to get used to sleeping in different beds.
00:11:23Oh my God.
00:11:25Oh.
00:11:26These are the better.
00:11:27Oh now that's the one.
00:11:28Look at that.
00:11:32Squeaky.
00:11:34You're right mate.
00:11:35I'll leave you to it later.
00:11:37Are you excited to go to sleep tonight?
00:11:39Yeah.
00:11:41I should have a look at the bathroom.
00:11:42No.
00:11:44Small.
00:11:45Tight space.
00:11:46Very.
00:11:47Okay.
00:11:48What one do you want?
00:11:49Left or right?
00:11:50It's his and hers.
00:11:51Normally we're in the kitchen cleaning our teeth.
00:11:54Now we can clean our teeth together.
00:11:57With a week ahead living like the other half, both homes have been rigged with diary cams
00:12:03so everyone can speak their private thoughts.
00:12:06The whole experience has been overwhelming for me today.
00:12:09This is completely different from what we're used to.
00:12:14Yeah.
00:12:14It's quite hard to take in at the minute.
00:12:16I can't believe that other people will actually live like this.
00:12:19Well I can but I can't.
00:12:20It's just mind blowing.
00:12:22Completely mind blowing.
00:12:23Got to really knuckle down me and say and really stick together and get through this.
00:12:30Coming up, the weekly budgets are revealed.
00:12:33I just can't fathom that, how much money's Hulk will spend in a week.
00:12:38It's about seven quid a day.
00:12:40What are we going to do with that?
00:12:41And Laura looks at a gold-plated career change.
00:12:45You can earn up to $150,000 a year.
00:12:48Wow.
00:12:55In Northolt, Plasterer Lee and Gardner Laura have big money problems.
00:13:00If we didn't have money struggles, I think we wouldn't argue nearly as much as we do.
00:13:05It's a different story in Westminster.
00:13:07In 2021, we sold the business for $150,000, yeah.
00:13:12One family are looking to do better.
00:13:15It might give me the push that I need to move up a level to get where I should be.
00:13:19The other want to change lives.
00:13:21If I can guide someone, help someone, that will be rewarding.
00:13:26This is it then.
00:13:27Now for one week, they are swapping houses.
00:13:29I'm thinking this is a tight space for one person.
00:13:33Oh, wow.
00:13:34Yeah, no, there's a bar.
00:13:37And it's the moment everyone's been waiting for.
00:13:41Okay, Sam, well, this is our budget.
00:13:44Do you want to do the honours?
00:13:45No, you do it.
00:13:46Go on, ladies first.
00:13:47No, you go for it.
00:13:48How much money does each family have for the week?
00:13:52Well, I'll tell you what, if it's under £100, that's going to be like...
00:13:55Struggle, struggle.
00:13:56That's going to be hard, isn't it?
00:13:59Oh.
00:13:59Cool.
00:14:01My word.
00:14:02Go slowly.
00:14:03Oh, my God.
00:14:0520.
00:14:0740.
00:14:0820.
00:14:1040.
00:14:1180.
00:14:1285.
00:14:1486.
00:14:1587.
00:14:1720.
00:14:19Yeah, check.
00:14:20No hidden pockets.
00:14:21I don't know.
00:14:22Where are they gone?
00:14:25Hmm.
00:14:26Look, it's about seven quid each a day.
00:14:29What are you going to do with that?
00:14:302,000.
00:14:322,000.
00:14:332,000.
00:14:332,000 pounds.
00:14:34In one.
00:14:35In one.
00:14:35For a week.
00:14:37For a week.
00:14:38For a week.
00:14:38A week.
00:14:39How much money someone could earn in a week?
00:14:43Or spend.
00:14:45In a week.
00:14:47I just can't fathom that.
00:14:49And we struggle.
00:14:51Yeah.
00:14:51Big time.
00:14:52Every week.
00:14:54Could you imagine the things that the girls would buy you could get?
00:14:58Wow.
00:15:01They're not only swapping budgets, but lives.
00:15:04And both families have a schedule for the week.
00:15:07Budget.
00:15:08Food shop.
00:15:09Okay.
00:15:09We know that, don't we?
00:15:10Food shopping.
00:15:12I don't think we'll have to worry about what we're going to spend on food.
00:15:15No, I don't think that's going to be a struggle.
00:15:17Cook Sunday.
00:15:18Oh, what a nightmare.
00:15:20Lunch for Tony.
00:15:20Cook Sunday lunch for Tony.
00:15:22Ashley at office.
00:15:24Something to do with where he works, his offices.
00:15:28Maybe.
00:15:29Get plastered.
00:15:30I think maybe it's his job.
00:15:32Job?
00:15:32Yeah, maybe.
00:15:33A bit of plastering.
00:15:35Ooh.
00:15:36Fancy dinner.
00:15:37Fancy dinner.
00:15:38Ooh.
00:15:38We've never done a fancy dinner.
00:15:43A week of untold luxury lies ahead.
00:15:46And the very excited twins are back from school.
00:15:51What do you think about this?
00:15:53I love it.
00:15:54What do you think of this?
00:15:56There's no TV.
00:15:57That's a mirror.
00:15:58Is it?
00:15:59For the first time in their lives, the twins have their own bedrooms and bathrooms.
00:16:05Come on.
00:16:06I want this one as a bedroom.
00:16:08I love the cosy beds and the...
00:16:11I love...
00:16:12You can just, like, jump on the pillow and then your head will just sink through the pillow.
00:16:15I love that, like, there is, um...
00:16:20A little duck here.
00:16:21Who wants dinner?
00:16:22Nick!
00:16:23What are we going to have tonight, do you think?
00:16:26Caviar!
00:16:27Caviar!
00:16:30There's no caviar in Northolt.
00:16:33I'm starving, to be honest.
00:16:34Where's your star cupboards?
00:16:36And no Natalie to whip up a £100 dinner.
00:16:40Cucumber?
00:16:41No, mate.
00:16:42Pizza?
00:16:43Yes.
00:16:43Pizza.
00:16:45That'll get us fire, won't it?
00:16:46You know the biggest problem?
00:16:48Turning the oven on.
00:16:50The Mullins have never cooked in their penthouse kitchen.
00:16:53This week, they're all on their own.
00:16:55I can't see it.
00:16:56Well, actually, look, that's the fan, yeah?
00:16:58Where?
00:16:59Yeah.
00:16:59Is it?
00:17:00Yeah.
00:17:01Oh, God.
00:17:02Hold on.
00:17:02I've got it, yeah.
00:17:04Put it on here, yeah?
00:17:05Yeah, you've got one bit on there.
00:17:06On here, is it?
00:17:06It won't be running now.
00:17:07It won't be full food, ain't it?
00:17:08No.
00:17:11In Westminster, Laura and Lee can afford whatever they want.
00:17:14You all happy, yeah, with your food?
00:17:16Yeah.
00:17:17I know.
00:17:17Chicken balls there, baby.
00:17:18Ooh.
00:17:19And double down on 80 quid's worth of burgers and Chinese takeaways.
00:17:24Ooh, look at that.
00:17:26It looks lovely.
00:17:28I love it.
00:17:29It's really nice, isn't it?
00:17:30I don't mind if you waste a little bit of food, because we can actually afford it.
00:17:35Cheers.
00:17:36Cheers.
00:17:38So fast.
00:17:40That's not bad.
00:17:41Is it cooked?
00:17:42Take a bite.
00:17:52Before bedtime in Northolt, it just gets worse.
00:17:55This plumbing boss is tapping out.
00:17:58Seb?
00:17:59Yeah?
00:18:01Can't wash your teeth in there.
00:18:02Are you joking?
00:18:03I'll let you have a look.
00:18:05I'm going to go into the kitchen, but you have a look.
00:18:07Unfortunately.
00:18:09What?
00:18:10You've got to be able to somewhere, haven't you?
00:18:12Yeah?
00:18:12I hope you have a family.
00:18:13Don't mind.
00:18:15Scott and Sam are swapping a marble bathroom for the kitchen sink.
00:18:20It'll be tougher than I thought.
00:18:21It's, you know, it's just going to be challenging.
00:18:24You know, we have Natalie most of the time.
00:18:27She does everything for us.
00:18:29The cooking, the cleaning.
00:18:31Everything.
00:18:32This is, this just doesn't compare to anything.
00:18:39Day two.
00:18:40And both families are waking up to new lives on the other side of the wealth divide.
00:18:46How was your sleep?
00:18:47Oh, it was lovely.
00:18:48The bed's huge.
00:18:49Yeah.
00:18:50How are you feeling?
00:18:51Tired.
00:18:52I'm missing my ass.
00:18:54I went to try and tap you and you was like miles away.
00:18:57You didn't get much sleep last night, did you?
00:18:59No.
00:19:00Okay.
00:19:00Not at all.
00:19:01I mean, I've probably got six hours or so, didn't you?
00:19:04But I know you was tossing and turning a lot in the night, weren't you?
00:19:06Yes.
00:19:06Sam thought she was sleeping in the parents' bedroom, but has noticed all the kids' toys.
00:19:13I actually think that this is the children's room.
00:19:16Mm.
00:19:16That they sleep out front room.
00:19:18Do you think so?
00:19:18I think, I think so because they're teddy bears.
00:19:22So, yeah.
00:19:23Yeah, that was really, uh, really shocking for us to see.
00:19:26You're just light years away from this life, aren't we?
00:19:29Totally.
00:19:31The penthouse is ten times the size of Lee and Laura's flat.
00:19:35We were just saying how wonderful it is that all of us can be in the bathroom at the same
00:19:40time,
00:19:40so you couldn't do this at home, could we?
00:19:41This is your bathroom.
00:19:43Yeah, but I'm saying how big the bathroom is.
00:19:45Yeah.
00:19:46Yeah, and you've got your own bathroom.
00:19:48In here, I can just go in my bathroom, dad goes in his bathroom safe,
00:19:52and in her bathroom, we're all fine.
00:19:54Yeah.
00:19:54Did you like that?
00:19:56It's a get out.
00:19:59For this week at least, Lee and Laura have no money worries.
00:20:03Oh, wow.
00:20:05Oh, Lee, look at all the herbs.
00:20:07The fridge may be rammed, but they can't resist a food shop
00:20:11where for once they can buy whatever they want.
00:20:14We've got to have some of that.
00:20:15Definitely.
00:20:16Oh, cheese.
00:20:17We've got one.
00:20:18One, it's a heart shape.
00:20:20We'll have some of that.
00:20:226.15, there's not even that much there.
00:20:24Oh, we get a massive chunk.
00:20:26For like £6.
00:20:27Yeah.
00:20:28£5.50.
00:20:29Ooh.
00:20:30Get them, anyway.
00:20:32Ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:20:34We've got to have some Italian honey.
00:20:36Yeah, get some.
00:20:37Yeah.
00:20:38£18 for honey.
00:20:40These must be some Royal TBs.
00:20:43I don't know where they come from.
00:20:45Maybe Buckingham Palace.
00:20:46Can you hit us with the damage?
00:20:47How much is that?
00:20:49That would be £168.79.
00:20:52Oh!
00:20:54One mil.
00:20:55168.
00:20:55One mil.
00:20:57Get the goodies out.
00:21:01Bye.
00:21:02Cheers, thank you.
00:21:02Bye.
00:21:05In Northolt, the food situation couldn't be more different
00:21:09because Scott and Sam have just £87
00:21:11to cover everything for the whole week.
00:21:15Biscuits?
00:21:16No.
00:21:18I haven't had one thing.
00:21:20I've had one thing I want.
00:21:21You can have biscuits and another.
00:21:23OK.
00:21:23Pasta I'm not a great fan of.
00:21:24Sauce I'm not a great fan of.
00:21:26Chicken and rice I can live with.
00:21:27Pasta sauce.
00:21:28You think that gets through the week?
00:21:30Yes.
00:21:31But there's another mouth to feed tomorrow.
00:21:33Long-time family friend Tony is coming over
00:21:36for his weekly roast.
00:21:38Have we got two obstacles?
00:21:39Have we got the money for the roast?
00:21:40Hey.
00:21:42We have to go without ourself, OK?
00:21:43Then we have to.
00:21:45Can we cook it?
00:21:45That's the problem.
00:21:48Bond.
00:21:50Housekeeper Natalie keeps their fridge stocked with £200 worth of food.
00:21:54So we've got pasta sauce.
00:21:56Pasta.
00:21:57And the impact of rocketing food prices on the average Brit has passed Scott and Sam by.
00:22:02Well, that was the items.
00:22:04I'm calculating them in my head.
00:22:06So I'm going, you know, beef six quid.
00:22:08This is seven quid.
00:22:08Thirteen quid.
00:22:09That's three quid.
00:22:10And then all of a sudden I've got like a girl of all the money in there all of a
00:22:13sudden
00:22:13canning it all up.
00:22:14And I'm thinking, are you sure?
00:22:16You know, but people do this all the time, don't they?
00:22:1860 pounds on food means there's less than 30 quid for the rest of the week.
00:22:25In the West End, Lee and Laura are expecting company.
00:22:29Hello.
00:22:30Hello.
00:22:30Hello.
00:22:31Old family friends of the Mullins, Lee and Vicky know all about their mystery hosts.
00:22:37Cheers.
00:22:38Cheers.
00:22:39Cheers.
00:22:40Nice to meet you.
00:22:40Lovely day for it.
00:22:41Very much so, yeah.
00:22:43How do you know Scott and Sam?
00:22:45It's basically our elder two kids at the same age as their two.
00:22:49They went to nursery together.
00:22:50Oh, lovely.
00:22:51So could you tell me like, what's Scott like?
00:22:53He's really down to earth.
00:22:55He's a normal fella.
00:22:56Done well for himself.
00:22:58Lovely teeth.
00:22:58Lovely teeth.
00:22:59Really?
00:22:59Yeah.
00:23:00They buy you a drink, but expect you to buy him one back.
00:23:03Scott's never forgotten where he came from.
00:23:04They weren't actually born into this money then?
00:23:07No, no, no.
00:23:07They weren't.
00:23:07Wow.
00:23:07No, no, no.
00:23:08They have grafted.
00:23:09We noticed the cards.
00:23:11So it says we fix a big company in London.
00:23:13It is.
00:23:14They had a really successful business before that they sold a couple years ago.
00:23:19And I think they've got the business bug.
00:23:22The thing is, he's come from the bottom to get to the top.
00:23:26And I'm one of them like, you can never begrudge someone for working hard.
00:23:31No.
00:23:31Yeah.
00:23:31And getting where they've got, you know?
00:23:33Absolutely.
00:23:33Yeah.
00:23:34I've not looked back.
00:23:35I've been doing that for 28, 29 years now.
00:23:38Oh, okay.
00:23:39You must be good at it then.
00:23:40That's very good.
00:23:41Yeah.
00:23:41Not to blow my own trumpet.
00:23:42Yeah, blow it.
00:23:43Go on.
00:23:43Yeah.
00:23:44No, I am really good.
00:23:45I've taught a lot of people.
00:23:47I've taught a lot of people.
00:23:48Yeah.
00:23:48Blimey.
00:23:49So, but yeah, unfortunately, I've not really pushed myself to the potential that I should
00:23:53No, but it's not got the confidence.
00:23:55What was lovely to find out that Mullins family did actually come from the same place
00:23:59that me and Lee come from.
00:24:00They came from a working class family and they worked very, very hard to have what they've
00:24:07got today.
00:24:08I do, I do.
00:24:09Have a good rest of your day.
00:24:10Thank you very much.
00:24:11Coming up, Scott and Sam cry for help in the kitchen.
00:24:15Natalie, listen, you're not going to believe this, but we are doing a roast dinner.
00:24:21Lee and Laura dine like the super rich.
00:24:24I feel really awkward asking you to do our dinner.
00:24:27Oh, look at that.
00:24:28Oh, wow.
00:24:29Having a housekeeper is on a total different level.
00:24:33And a truly inspirational discovery.
00:24:36Who are you, Tom?
00:24:36What are you to the puzzle?
00:24:37I was homeless.
00:24:38Lee took me in.
00:24:39There ain't many people you can honestly say you can turn to and would do that for you.
00:24:49Lee and Laura have a week in a 12 million pound Westminster home.
00:24:53There's no TV?
00:24:54That's a mirror.
00:24:55Is it?
00:24:57While in Northolt, times are tough.
00:24:59How are you feeling?
00:25:00Tired.
00:25:02I'm missing my ass.
00:25:03And the gulfing budgets.
00:25:05You think that gets for the week?
00:25:06Yes.
00:25:07It's an eye-opener.
00:25:09We've got to have some Italian honey.
00:25:11Yeah, get some.
00:25:12Yeah.
00:25:1318 pounds for honey.
00:25:14These must be some world TBs.
00:25:17Day three.
00:25:18Scott and Sam are waking up to a bathroom tap that's been broken for five months.
00:25:25I feel for the other family on this one because it's the only bathroom they have.
00:25:30Use the toilet.
00:25:31Brush your teeth.
00:25:33Nothing.
00:25:34You can't brush your teeth in the shower.
00:25:36You can't.
00:25:37So you have to go into the kitchens.
00:25:39Still can't get my head around how many people are here.
00:25:41I don't quite know the family yet so I don't know that.
00:25:44Scott may head up a million pound plumbing firm but never trained as a plumber himself.
00:25:49What I'm going to do, I'm going to get our guys in and I left somewhere around in Monday morning,
00:25:539 o'clock.
00:25:54It was all the type of shit.
00:25:57Meanwhile, Lee and Laura are enjoying their spectacular view.
00:26:01Could wake up to this though in the morning.
00:26:03Look at this.
00:26:05How do you reckon they're getting on in our little humble home?
00:26:08Oh, they'll be brushing their teeth right now in the sink.
00:26:11In the sink.
00:26:12In the kitchen sink.
00:26:12Looking out into the garden thinking what is this when we've got two taps in our bathroom and one each
00:26:19so we're good.
00:26:22The day's not getting any easier for Sam and Scott.
00:26:25I'll start getting the stuff out, yeah?
00:26:27Well, that's the fridge.
00:26:29In two hours, Lee and Laura's friend Tony is coming round for his weekly roast.
00:26:34Imagine the meat's got to go on lively, didn't you?
00:26:36Definitely.
00:26:37Where would the beef be in the fridge?
00:26:39I guess.
00:26:40OK.
00:26:41I haven't done the roasting in a very long time.
00:26:43Very stressful day today.
00:26:45This is the worst one that we was dreading.
00:26:48OK.
00:26:49Top or bottom?
00:26:51Ten minutes in and they break the rules.
00:26:54Natalie.
00:26:55Hiya.
00:26:56Listen, you're not going to believe this, but...
00:26:59We are doing a roast dinner.
00:27:02But we need some guidance.
00:27:03Please.
00:27:04Yeah.
00:27:05Can you show me how big...
00:27:07Look, so my hand's bigger.
00:27:09So it's very small.
00:27:11How do we know it's done, Natalie?
00:27:12One hour.
00:27:13Thanks again, Natalie.
00:27:14We miss you.
00:27:19Lee and Laura never normally have any spare cash to treat the twins.
00:27:24But today, they still have £1,800 of their two grand allowance to spend.
00:27:30Wow.
00:27:31Yeah?
00:27:32Go on, then.
00:27:32How much can we spend?
00:27:34You're allowed £100 each.
00:27:37£100 each?
00:27:39£100?
00:27:41It's a once-in-a-lifetime budget.
00:27:44You don't want to just spend all your money on dolls.
00:27:46Would you like to have a look at the arts and crafts now?
00:27:49Yes.
00:27:50Yeah?
00:27:51And no-one's really counting.
00:27:54Oh, my gosh.
00:27:55Sorry.
00:27:56OMG.
00:27:56Oh, my gosh.
00:27:58So that's £246.86.
00:28:02Woo-hoo.
00:28:02Awesome.
00:28:03Thank you very much.
00:28:04£250.
00:28:05Yeah, that's a good amount.
00:28:07Are you happy?
00:28:07Lucky ladies.
00:28:09Are you happy?
00:28:10Yeah.
00:28:11The final bill would cover three whole weeks of their life at home.
00:28:14For the first time I'd go, you can have what you like.
00:28:17That makes me feel so happy to see they're so happy.
00:28:23Oh, that's just, that's just pure gold.
00:28:25It's just absolutely amazing.
00:28:26I love it.
00:28:27There you go.
00:28:28Chuckle along.
00:28:31In Northolt, Tony's arriving for his roast lunch.
00:28:35Hello, Scott.
00:28:35Nice to meet you, mate.
00:28:36You all right?
00:28:36I'm all right, thank you.
00:28:37Good stuff.
00:28:38Come through.
00:28:39Have a seat, mate.
00:28:40Wife's in there, Tony.
00:28:41That's Sam.
00:28:41Hello there.
00:28:42I am Sam.
00:28:43How are you?
00:28:43I'm all right, thank you.
00:28:45We don't know much about Lee and Laurel.
00:28:47We've just been putting puzzles together.
00:28:49Yeah.
00:28:49Who are you, Tony?
00:28:50What are you to the puzzle?
00:28:51I'm just a family friend.
00:28:53I've known Lee maybe 20 years.
00:28:56Really?
00:28:56A long time.
00:28:57I was homeless at some stage.
00:28:59Lee took me in.
00:29:00How long was you with Lee and Laurel when things were tough?
00:29:03Two and a half years.
00:29:05Tony, you in a good place now?
00:29:06Yeah, better than I was.
00:29:07That's good to hear, isn't it?
00:29:09There ain't many people that you can honestly say you can turn to and would do that for you.
00:29:12So, you know, for me, very caring people.
00:29:14They're struggling in their self.
00:29:16Both of them in a tiny flat.
00:29:18You know, wow.
00:29:19We're working it out.
00:29:20We've been given schedules to do.
00:29:22And I think Lee does plastering.
00:29:24Have we got the right end of the stick?
00:29:25Yes.
00:29:25Yeah.
00:29:26He's a bit plastered.
00:29:27He's a very good plasterer.
00:29:28He's well sought after when he's plastered.
00:29:31He's got a good name for himself.
00:29:32Has he?
00:29:32And we go, yeah.
00:29:33We're going to put some vegetables on.
00:29:35And you don't mind giving us a few minutes together to get us to like this dinner?
00:29:38Two more.
00:29:39Two more food.
00:29:40One minute, mate.
00:29:41All right, mate.
00:29:41Thanks.
00:29:42It's the big moment.
00:29:44How have Sam and Scott coped in the kitchen?
00:29:47It looks all right.
00:29:49Actually, that's how I would have it, but...
00:29:51My butt.
00:29:52It's a game changer.
00:29:55Tony, do you like gravy everywhere?
00:29:57Yeah.
00:29:57That's fine.
00:29:58I'll cut you.
00:30:00Look at that.
00:30:01That is really good.
00:30:03Look at that.
00:30:04The meat's good.
00:30:05I'm just going to go for the potato now.
00:30:08An eight out of ten.
00:30:09Out of ten?
00:30:11Eight, nine.
00:30:12Oh!
00:30:14Tony's the man.
00:30:15Job done.
00:30:16But there are still questions about the rest of the family.
00:30:20We sort of know that Laura does some gardening, looks after the kids.
00:30:24Turns out there are three children in the house, including twins Katie and Sadie.
00:30:29We love the gymnastics.
00:30:31Football.
00:30:32Sporty then.
00:30:33Yeah.
00:30:33Been doing some cricket.
00:30:35Very lively.
00:30:36Yeah.
00:30:36What's the reason things are so tough for him, considering no work?
00:30:40Driving's the main thing for Lee.
00:30:42Because of not driving.
00:30:43Because he does miss out on some jobs.
00:30:45Has he never driven?
00:30:46Has he never done a test?
00:30:47They do cost money, don't they?
00:30:48Big financial strain if he don't pass.
00:30:50So I sort of, I'll forget that, yeah.
00:30:53Lee's a really hard worker.
00:30:55Got his own business.
00:30:56The only thing he doesn't do is drive.
00:30:59Thank you very well.
00:31:01Thank you mate.
00:31:01Take care Tom.
00:31:02See you mate.
00:31:03Bye bye.
00:31:03Bye bye.
00:31:05Scott and Sam can't cook, but can build a business.
00:31:08Lee and Laura are seeing how it's done.
00:31:11Yeah, this is the heart of the business really.
00:31:14Scott and Sam's son, Ashley, is the MD.
00:31:17From customers calling in for emergency jobs, general jobs, absolutely anything, come through
00:31:23these from them.
00:31:24Wow.
00:31:24Yeah.
00:31:25Laura and Lee both work in the trades, but can't earn enough money to get by.
00:31:30What does it take to build a business like this?
00:31:33Because I'm a plasterer myself, self-employed.
00:31:36My granddad started the previous company.
00:31:38It was just him in a van.
00:31:40Right.
00:31:40That was how it started.
00:31:42It was a second hand van.
00:31:43Yeah, Britain's best plumber.
00:31:43Yeah.
00:31:44And tools were hand-me-down tools.
00:31:46Yeah.
00:31:47And that's how we started.
00:31:48Standard rate for a plumbing is £150 an hour plus that.
00:31:51Yeah.
00:31:51So we charge a premium, but we can guarantee that that job is going to be done.
00:31:56Exactly.
00:31:57Laura charges just £15 an hour as a gardener.
00:32:01Out of the blue, there's a chance for a lucrative career change.
00:32:05For women to be in this industry is an absolute...
00:32:08Brilliant.
00:32:09I see the ladies with their hard hats on and I'm like, go on, girl.
00:32:12We are, at the moment, currently looking for more apprentices.
00:32:15It's an industry that's crying out for female plumbers, female engineers.
00:32:19I'd love to offer you the chance, Laura, to see what it is like...
00:32:23Yes, please.
00:32:23..on the front line...
00:32:24Yeah.
00:32:25..going to a customer's house on a real job.
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:29Um, and...
00:32:30I've never even given it a thought about plumbing, ever.
00:32:33So that is an opportunity that I'm...
00:32:36I can't wait for, definitely.
00:32:38Shadowing a plumber, Laura can see if she likes to work
00:32:42and the company can see if they like Laura.
00:32:45And there's also a great opportunity for Lee.
00:32:48We do have plasters as well.
00:32:50They will also come on the hourly rate.
00:32:52I don't seem to get enough work in to fill up...
00:32:56Fill up the year.
00:32:57..a book for, like, three months in advance.
00:33:00One thing that's always let me down is I don't drive as well.
00:33:02I think we're both a bit scared of failure, really.
00:33:05Of failure, yeah.
00:33:06You will do it.
00:33:07We'll make mistakes.
00:33:07And you will fail.
00:33:08You will fail.
00:33:09You'll get a little win two, three, four years down the line.
00:33:12Yeah.
00:33:13And you'll be like, oh, thank God we didn't give up.
00:33:15Ashley can offer Lee loads of work,
00:33:17but with customers all over London,
00:33:19he'll still need the confidence to take that driving test.
00:33:23Yeah, I am a grafter and I do want to give it all my all.
00:33:26And I was very happy that Ashley recognised that
00:33:30and he gave me a little bit more confidence when I walked out of there.
00:33:34While Lee and Laura want to speed up their careers,
00:33:38Sam's big hope for the week is Scott will slow down
00:33:41following his health scare.
00:33:44Tiring day today, wasn't it, Brooke?
00:33:45Yeah, enjoy it.
00:33:46Good day, though, wasn't it?
00:33:47Yeah, good day.
00:33:48Really struggled last night, I'm not going to lie.
00:33:52Today has been a happier day for me.
00:33:55Seeing Scott not on the phone constantly or in the office, you know,
00:33:59just me and him doing something that we don't do
00:34:03and having a little bit of banter while we're doing it,
00:34:06I, yeah, I, it was great to see.
00:34:09When you've done the, er, me a bacon sandwich when I first met you,
00:34:13do you remember?
00:34:14Yeah.
00:34:14Oh, yeah.
00:34:15Nice bacon sandwich.
00:34:16It was a really nice bacon sandwich.
00:34:17Yeah, but that was about it, weren't it?
00:34:19Yeah, I think...
00:34:19That was the limits, weren't it?
00:34:20Once you...
00:34:21And that may have been the last time I've...
00:34:22No, no, you've done nuggets and chips.
00:34:24So that's probably as much as I've done in 30 years, innit?
00:34:27Yeah.
00:34:27Bacon sandwich, nuggets and chips, and they have a roast for Tony.
00:34:31A bit edgy this morning, and as the day got going again,
00:34:33it was great, and, and the two bits, and then, you know,
00:34:35and then to forget about work and spend a bit of time together,
00:34:38it feels like when we first met.
00:34:43Cooking in Westminster is a different kettle of fish.
00:34:46And you would like today some dinner?
00:34:48Oh!
00:34:50Yes!
00:34:51I would not say no to that.
00:34:53With Natalie on hand, Lee and Laura don't have to lift a finger.
00:34:57Could I have a steak and some chips?
00:34:59Okay.
00:35:00About to you.
00:35:01If you'd like to try and make us a spaghetti bolognese.
00:35:03I feel really awkward asking you to do our dinner.
00:35:06It's a nice feeling, not having to get up, you know, and do anything.
00:35:09I know.
00:35:09And thank you very, very much.
00:35:10Thanks.
00:35:10You're welcome.
00:35:11Okay.
00:35:14Living like the super rich takes some getting used to.
00:35:17Oh, I can't wait.
00:35:20Everyone gets exactly what they want.
00:35:23Oh, wow, look at that.
00:35:25Oh, look at that.
00:35:26Oh, wow.
00:35:27Having a housekeeper is on a total different level,
00:35:30but it's nice, I suppose, because if you've got a family,
00:35:33you'll be able to spend more time with your children.
00:35:37Oh.
00:35:39Oh, wow.
00:35:40That was really nice and probably one of the best spag bowls I've ever had.
00:35:45I've never actually had pasta this fresh before.
00:35:48Before the week, Lee and Laura's money problems
00:35:51were putting a big strain on their relationship.
00:35:54Me and Lee aren't bickering half as much as we usually do.
00:35:58We're getting on like a house on fire.
00:36:01So maybe, in a way, money does buy happiness.
00:36:06Coming up, the family swap trades.
00:36:10I think I could do plumbing quite easily.
00:36:13Oh.
00:36:14Oh, wow.
00:36:15Oh, sorry.
00:36:15I'm surprised at that.
00:36:17Scott and Sam begin to hatch a plan.
00:36:19You know, they can definitely get there.
00:36:20They just need a little bit of guidance,
00:36:21and I don't think they're a million miles from changing their life, you know.
00:36:24And more relationship therapy for Lee and Laura.
00:36:27There you go, baby.
00:36:28Nothing but the best for you.
00:36:30Thank you very much.
00:36:38Day four.
00:36:39In Northolt, Scott's the changed man in the kitchen.
00:36:44You can do this more often?
00:36:45Yeah.
00:36:46Look, I'm enjoying it.
00:36:48I'm just worried about the beans are going a bit cold.
00:36:51What?
00:36:51Any chance you could bring over to this side of the chef's side?
00:36:54This side, please.
00:36:55Chef?
00:36:57Second chef.
00:36:58Second chef.
00:37:00This weren't happening a few days ago.
00:37:02I'll turn it off.
00:37:03I'll come out there clean afterwards.
00:37:06Mmm.
00:37:08Nice.
00:37:09Really decent.
00:37:11Scott and Sam spent just £60 on food to last a week.
00:37:15But that still leaves less than £30 for everything else.
00:37:19When you think about it, Sam,
00:37:21you're on an £87.20 budget for a week, aren't you?
00:37:23And then you get something like your tap don't work
00:37:25or your boiler goes down or your shower's not working.
00:37:28So there's no room for nothing else, is there?
00:37:31So if something goes wrong in your house, you know,
00:37:32if you get brand new taps, new shower screens,
00:37:34it could be £300, £400.
00:37:36I mean, it...
00:37:36Well, you just...
00:37:37It ain't happening, is it?
00:37:38From three quid beans and toast in Northolt...
00:37:42There's bacon.
00:37:43..to a fridge packed with £200 of food in Westminster,
00:37:48breakfast is seriously different.
00:37:51Oh, here we go.
00:37:54As long as they can work the hop...
00:37:58Costing £5,000, it certainly hasn't got all the knobs on.
00:38:02How hard do you reckon this is going to be?
00:38:04Awkward, all of this just to cook a bit of egg and bacon.
00:38:07It's on.
00:38:08Oh, there we go.
00:38:10Give me some more.
00:38:10Oh, you just put it on there.
00:38:12I've always been told an orange yolk is a very well-fed chicken.
00:38:16I do believe they're a good £4.50 just for six eggs.
00:38:22And we don't spend £4.50 on just six eggs.
00:38:30The families have swapped homes and budgets.
00:38:34Now it's a day of swapping jobs.
00:38:36First up, Scott and Sam are taking on one of Laura's gardening shifts.
00:38:41You do the sweeping up.
00:38:43Yeah.
00:38:43I'll do the chopping up.
00:38:44I'll do the leads.
00:38:45You do the leads.
00:38:45I'll take the weeds out.
00:38:46You know what weeds are, yeah?
00:38:48Tasked with a big tidy up.
00:38:51When was the last time you done any manual labour?
00:38:56Any manual labour?
00:38:59But trades boss Scott's been sitting in an office for 25 years.
00:39:04Long time ago.
00:39:06Long time ago, Sam.
00:39:07Long time.
00:39:08But you're doing good.
00:39:09You're doing good.
00:39:10All done.
00:39:12All done.
00:39:13Have we got bags?
00:39:14Yeah.
00:39:14We need some garden bags, don't we?
00:39:16Yeah.
00:39:20Good stuff.
00:39:21All done.
00:39:22Look at that.
00:39:22Looks tidy.
00:39:23Looking good, see?
00:39:24Sam, you'll need that.
00:39:27I'll fix it.
00:39:28Don't worry.
00:39:30I mean, think about it, Sam.
00:39:31You know, we're doing things out of our comfort zone, right?
00:39:33Yeah.
00:39:34But we're having quality time, aren't we?
00:39:35When was the last time we had quality time together like this?
00:39:37No, we don't.
00:39:37Oh, you don't, do you?
00:39:38You sort of get up in your work and you're up in this.
00:39:41Grandkids.
00:39:41Grandkids, this and that.
00:39:42But we find ourselves in the same house.
00:39:43It's good quality time, isn't it?
00:39:44It is.
00:39:45It's nice, yeah.
00:39:45Yeah.
00:39:50In Westminster, there's a big day ahead as Laura is about to get a taste of what could
00:39:54be a completely new career.
00:39:57Yeah, so how do you feel about the offer that Ashley gave us yesterday?
00:40:02I can't wait.
00:40:02It'd be interesting.
00:40:03Could you see yourself doing it?
00:40:05Yeah, I could.
00:40:06And don't forget my dad was a plumber, so I'd be following in his footsteps as well.
00:40:10It'd be really interesting to learn something new.
00:40:12You know, I like learning.
00:40:14I think you take to it and also he's got a point because you do see more and more people,
00:40:19more and more women.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:21Getting into construction.
00:40:22I think I could do plumbing quite easily.
00:40:24I'd like to come along to see, like, the shadow and the business, like the plumbing.
00:40:30Yeah.
00:40:30And then just see how they run their business.
00:40:33I want mummy and daddy to be successful.
00:40:36Only if they want to be successful.
00:40:39If they do, Sadie.
00:40:45Millionaires Scott and Sam are finding out what it's like to do manual work all day long.
00:40:50A morning of gardening is followed by an afternoon of plastering with Jason, who's worked on and off with Lee
00:40:56for over ten years.
00:40:59Nice to meet you, Scott.
00:41:00You all right?
00:41:01That's your wife, Sam.
00:41:02Nice to meet you.
00:41:03I've been asked to come to see a little bit of what Lee does.
00:41:07We'll throw you in the deep end.
00:41:08So basically what we're going to do, we're going to basically plaster this wall.
00:41:10Okay.
00:41:11Yeah.
00:41:11Is this something Lee would do?
00:41:13Oh, yeah.
00:41:13Yeah.
00:41:13Is this Lee's going?
00:41:15Yeah.
00:41:15With plastering jobs possibly going at Scott's company, first a chance to find out how good Lee really is.
00:41:22I thought I was, you know, I thought I was the man.
00:41:26Ended up meeting Lee and, yeah, so it turned out I was a bit rough around the edges.
00:41:29He whipped me into shape over the years, let's just say.
00:41:31Yeah, so he knows all the tricks.
00:41:33I don't believe he drives, which is probably a big setback.
00:41:35That's always been a holdback for him.
00:41:37I've never known anyone that actually works as hard as him.
00:41:39He's just had a lot of bad luck, so he's just, you know, a guy like him just needs a
00:41:42break.
00:41:43Yeah.
00:41:43Got it.
00:41:44Okay.
00:41:45Yeah.
00:41:45I'll get that.
00:41:46All right.
00:41:46Well, look, we're at your mercy, Jason, so you tell us what you want me to do and I'll do
00:41:50my best for you.
00:41:51It's back to the floor again for boss Scott, and there's nowhere to hide.
00:41:55I've got to be honest with you today, I thought, this is going to be a little bit of a
00:41:59job.
00:41:59Well done.
00:42:00I feel like Ghostboss tension.
00:42:02And I thought, well, it's a tricky trade.
00:42:04You know, I know that for sure anyway.
00:42:06Yep.
00:42:06Up like that.
00:42:07And down like that long ways, you see.
00:42:08Gotcha.
00:42:09There you go.
00:42:09Is that right for you?
00:42:10Come with Daniels, have a look.
00:42:11Oh.
00:42:12Oh, what?
00:42:13I'm sorry.
00:42:14That's a five of that.
00:42:15You know, I mean Jason makes you look easy, but it definitely ain't easy.
00:42:20I'm scared about it.
00:42:22I went back.
00:42:24But I'll tell you what, it's half work though.
00:42:26Yeah, it does take its toll.
00:42:27And this is what Lee would do every day?
00:42:29Every day.
00:42:30He's always chasing money, that's the thing, and he can't say no.
00:42:33But he's got three kids, hasn't he?
00:42:35Exactly.
00:42:35So he hasn't got a choice.
00:42:36That's right, yeah.
00:42:37I mean, he's got a heart, you know.
00:42:39I was down at that once, like my van got broken into.
00:42:41I'm sure, you know, like it happens all the time.
00:42:44My van got broken into, they stole all my tools.
00:42:46And the only person who helped me out was Lee.
00:42:48Like, luckily Lee's, you know, he's always got spares of everything.
00:42:51So he's dug around in his shed.
00:42:52He's given me to them like, you know, trowels, you know, bucket trowels, bits and bobs just to keep me
00:42:56going.
00:42:57So if it weren't for him, you know, I'd be stuffed.
00:42:59They seem to really help people, don't they?
00:43:01Yeah, I've heard that a couple of times on Lee doing that, ain't it?
00:43:04Yeah.
00:43:05Listen, fantastic for your time, mate.
00:43:06Thanks.
00:43:07I've enjoyed being your apprentice today.
00:43:09Well, I've got to finish it on my own.
00:43:10I'm going to lunch, mate.
00:43:12Liberties.
00:43:14Thanks again, Jason.
00:43:14See you, mate.
00:43:15See you later.
00:43:18Two minutes I've done.
00:43:19Jason's done half hour.
00:43:20He's got nothing on him.
00:43:23Someone's phoned it on me.
00:43:24See, another little thing we know about him.
00:43:26And working all hours under the sun.
00:43:27We heard that today.
00:43:28And he taught Jason.
00:43:29Jason said that he taught me.
00:43:31You know what I mean?
00:43:31And he's got time for...
00:43:32He doesn't know anyone better than Lee.
00:43:34Yeah.
00:43:34And he said he's got time for people.
00:43:36Yeah.
00:43:36Which is a decent thing to say, ain't it?
00:43:37Brilliant.
00:43:40Scott and Sam are building a picture of Lee.
00:43:43Now working behind the scenes with Ashley, they've arranged for Laura to shadow one of their plumbers to see if
00:43:49she's right for an apprenticeship.
00:43:51This is Matt.
00:43:52Very experienced.
00:43:53He'll be travelling in the van, knocking on the customer's door, seeing what it's really like.
00:43:57Well, good luck.
00:43:58You're in safe hands.
00:44:00You excited?
00:44:01Yeah.
00:44:02Looking forward to it?
00:44:03Yeah.
00:44:04Off we go.
00:44:05Matt's called out to look at a faulty boiler.
00:44:08Customers asked me to check the times and the programming first.
00:44:12Yeah.
00:44:12If you was to have to put in a new boiler, do you have everything in your van to do
00:44:16that straight away?
00:44:17Or would you have to go out, get something to come back again?
00:44:20So we can phone up a local merchant so they can deliver the boiler out.
00:44:24Right.
00:44:24Oh, brilliant.
00:44:24When it gets cold, you need your heating and your hot water.
00:44:29That's it.
00:44:29How much would you earn doing this job?
00:44:31You can earn up to $150,000 a year.
00:44:34Wow.
00:44:34You'd be doing sort of 40, 50 hours.
00:44:37To get that kind of money.
00:44:3760 hours to get that.
00:44:38I mean, that blew my mind.
00:44:40Never in a million years would I have thought that you could earn that amount being a plumber.
00:44:44We're all done in here, so next is to go down to have a look at the boiler.
00:44:47I really do think I could take to this like a duct of water.
00:44:51I would definitely get stuck in.
00:44:53I'm a gardener anyway, so my job is very hands-on.
00:44:56I think I'd do quite well.
00:44:57I think I'd pick it up quite quickly, to be fair.
00:44:59Yeah, because obviously I have three children and I'm a full-time mum, do they take people
00:45:04on part-time or can I work my sort of hours?
00:45:07How does that work there?
00:45:08Yeah, so obviously working for these things, they try to be as flexible as they can.
00:45:13Oh, right.
00:45:14So they can accommodate me.
00:45:16Yeah, yeah.
00:45:17So I can still be mummy to my children and be a plumber.
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:21I look forward to getting you on board on the tools.
00:45:23Yeah, definitely.
00:45:25After a debrief from Matt, Ashley's straight on the phone to mum and dad to share what
00:45:30he's learned about Laura and Lee over the week.
00:45:34Have you met the family?
00:45:37Yeah, met them.
00:45:38They came up to the offices.
00:45:39I drove them around the offices.
00:45:40I could see that they had a drive behind them.
00:45:43Obviously Lee is in the trades industry, as well as Laura with the gardening.
00:45:47So yeah, they went out with Matt, very happy.
00:45:51Matt said that they wanted to get their hands dirty, which was good, asking the right questions.
00:45:56So a pass from your end then?
00:45:58You thought they'd done quite well?
00:45:59For me, it was a pass.
00:46:01No, so he's got the bases, Lee and Laura, haven't they?
00:46:03You know, they can definitely get there.
00:46:05They just need a little bit of guidance and a little bit of help up that ladder.
00:46:08And I don't think they're a million miles from changing their life, you know.
00:46:15In Westminster, Lee and Laura are off the clock.
00:46:18Look at this.
00:46:18I want to be goalie.
00:46:20And for the twins, the penthouse playground is the gift that keeps on giving.
00:46:25Mummy!
00:46:26Come in!
00:46:26Go get her!
00:46:27Oh!
00:46:28Yes!
00:46:29The wrap-around balcony comes with a top-of-the-range £2,000 fuss ball table.
00:46:37The first one to score a goal gets the chocolate ball.
00:46:41Ah!
00:46:41No!
00:46:42Yes!
00:46:43No!
00:46:44Oh!
00:46:45Kick it in!
00:46:46Kick it!
00:46:48Yes!
00:46:48Dribble!
00:46:49Dribble!
00:46:50No!
00:46:51Yeah!
00:46:52No!
00:46:53No!
00:46:54We're not very good at this.
00:46:56The twins have taken to the super rich life without missing a beat.
00:47:02And after bedtime, the swap is working wonders for Lee and Laura too.
00:47:06Could you bring me a glass of champagne while I'm in the bar, please?
00:47:10Thank you!
00:47:12There you go, baby.
00:47:13Nothing but the best for you.
00:47:14Thank you very much.
00:47:15Enjoy your champagne.
00:47:16Enjoy the view.
00:47:17I will.
00:47:18Me and Laura haven't bickered once over this whole experiment.
00:47:22And that is a really great thing.
00:47:24In fact, it's brought us closer together and stronger.
00:47:27I'm really going to miss the intimacy that me and Lee have had on our long chats.
00:47:32And I hope it carries on, which I do think we will.
00:47:35See ya!
00:47:36Go see you kids!
00:47:37Bye!
00:47:40Coming up, can Lee face his nemesis?
00:47:43Get over your fear of failing.
00:47:46Why don't you book that lesson right now?
00:47:48Do it!
00:47:49And will Scott ever listen to Sam about slowing down?
00:47:52And still, you're resisting what I'm saying because you think what I'm nagging.
00:48:07Day five.
00:48:09In Northolt, Scott's continuing his voyage of self-discovery in the kitchen.
00:48:15Sam, how many spoons in your latte?
00:48:18What, the coffee?
00:48:19Yeah.
00:48:20One.
00:48:21Are you joking?
00:48:22No.
00:48:22A lot of milk in a latte normally.
00:48:24There you go.
00:48:25Looking good, Sam.
00:48:27Ch-ch-ch-ch-ch-ch.
00:48:28Flops it up and all that.
00:48:29I mean, I've done the ch-ch-ch.
00:48:31It ain't no Natalie latte, let's put it that way.
00:48:33Get this down, yeah?
00:48:35Do you the world of good.
00:48:37Don't be put off by the colour of it.
00:48:40It's just like Natalie makes.
00:48:43Scott's made me a latte this morning.
00:48:46A very nice thing to do, but absolutely disgusting.
00:48:52Yeah, nice.
00:48:53Is it nice?
00:48:54Yeah, nice.
00:48:55Good.
00:48:56In Westminster, Lee and Laura are broaching the biggest issue of the week.
00:49:01Lee's driving test.
00:49:04Get over your fear of failing, because you're past that.
00:49:08I believe in you.
00:49:09I think while you're here and we're not at work and you've got more time on your hands
00:49:14right now, why don't you book that lesson right now?
00:49:17Do it.
00:49:18I've never actually known that Lee had such a big fear of failure, to be quite honest.
00:49:24And Lee's decided to do it the millionaire way.
00:49:27Right, here we go.
00:49:28Found one here.
00:49:29What, what?
00:49:31Belgravia driving school.
00:49:32Look at that with a Mercedes!
00:49:35First lesson in that.
00:49:36We're rocking up in a mer.
00:49:38Are you booking it then?
00:49:40Are you taking the plan?
00:49:41Are you doing it?
00:49:42Yes, I'm doing it.
00:49:43I'm doing it.
00:49:44I'm doing it.
00:49:44Proud of you, Lee.
00:49:45Really proud of you.
00:49:46Now I've booked my first driving lesson, I'm feeling a little bit nervous, but obviously
00:49:51nerves, everyone gets them, so I've just got to get over that and just get the thought
00:49:55of failure out of my head.
00:49:57If I do that, then I don't see why I can't be confident.
00:50:01Give us a high five and a big kiss.
00:50:03I'm really proud of you.
00:50:05Yeah.
00:50:06I'm gonna do it.
00:50:07I'm gonna get this done.
00:50:09If Lee ever needed a confidence boost, it's now.
00:50:13With over a thousand pounds still in the budget, Laura decides there's no better tonic
00:50:18than a big spending clothes shopping bonanza.
00:50:21How about that one?
00:50:22Oh, yeah.
00:50:23I do like that.
00:50:24Like, something like this.
00:50:26That's nice and fickle.
00:50:27Oh, yeah.
00:50:29Oh, wow.
00:50:30Yeah.
00:50:31I'm going for this outfit.
00:50:32I think you should, 100%.
00:50:33Yeah.
00:50:34One, two, three hundred and fifty.
00:50:37The fact is, we can't always say yes, but over this week, we can afford to say yes, which
00:50:43is a nice feeling.
00:50:45Lee's outfit cost 350 quid, but there's plenty left over for Laura.
00:50:51They're quite nice.
00:50:52Yeah.
00:50:53Okay, babes, you good?
00:50:54It's the new me.
00:50:56Is it the new you?
00:51:02I'm very well.
00:51:03Thank you very much.
00:51:04You've got some beautiful clothes here, I must say.
00:51:06260.
00:51:07Thank you very much.
00:51:09Have a good day.
00:51:09Bye.
00:51:12In Northolt, the bathroom tab's been a big bother.
00:51:16And now, with just 30 quid left, Scott and Sam are dipping into their own pockets to
00:51:21get it fixed.
00:51:22Well done.
00:51:23Well done, Josh, yeah?
00:51:24Yeah.
00:51:25Well done, new tack.
00:51:26Evan, brilliant.
00:51:27Well done, Josh.
00:51:28Well done.
00:51:28Thanks, Josh.
00:51:30It puts a smile on my face to think I can brush my teeth using a tack.
00:51:37The smallest things in life are sometimes the most pleasing.
00:51:43Lee's been putting off his first driving lesson for 40 years.
00:51:47But he's gained confidence over the week, and today is giving it a go.
00:51:52Bit excited.
00:51:54Got butterflies already.
00:51:55Had to get a bit clammy.
00:51:57Yeah, this is where we've got a meeting.
00:51:58This is where we're meeting.
00:51:59Just waiting.
00:52:01Excited?
00:52:02Yeah.
00:52:03Just wondering what car we'd be driving today.
00:52:05Well, you are in a posh area, so it's going to be a posh car.
00:52:09Soldier.
00:52:10It's a Mercedes, look.
00:52:12Hi.
00:52:13How are you doing?
00:52:13Alright, I'm Laura.
00:52:15Laura, nice to meet you.
00:52:16And I'm Lee.
00:52:16Lee, I'm Gentian.
00:52:18Pleased to meet you.
00:52:18Nice to meet you.
00:52:19Alright, so, shall we hop in?
00:52:21Yeah.
00:52:22Good luck.
00:52:22Give us a kiss.
00:52:24If you come and sit on the driver's seat immediately.
00:52:26Yep.
00:52:26And I'll sit on the passenger seat.
00:52:27Good luck.
00:52:29Okay, Lee.
00:52:31Alright, so, before you put on your seatbelt, is this your first driving lesson?
00:52:36Yes.
00:52:36Have you driven a car before?
00:52:38Yeah, little bits here and there.
00:52:40Yes.
00:52:41Manual or automatic?
00:52:42Manual.
00:52:42Manual.
00:52:43Alright, we're going to do automatic.
00:52:45Yeah, that's fine with me.
00:52:47It's easy because we have no clutch.
00:52:48We have no gears to change.
00:52:50Yep.
00:52:50So, you just have the accelerator and you just have your brakes, so you won't have to use
00:52:53your left or your right foot.
00:52:55That's going to be doing the job.
00:52:55Just being relaxed.
00:52:56Okay.
00:52:57So, you can see, yeah, it's easy.
00:52:58Have you driven a go-car?
00:53:00Yeah.
00:53:01Yeah.
00:53:01Like that, right?
00:53:01Just press on the gas, press on the brakes.
00:53:03It'll be as easy as that.
00:53:04Yeah, it'll be clear.
00:53:04Alright, and just cut all the brakes a little bit and steer to the right.
00:53:11Great.
00:53:11Have your foot on the brakes and steer left.
00:53:15Alright, just keep it on the brakes.
00:53:17And steer right.
00:53:19I am super, super, super proud of Lee that he's taken that giant step of doing his first
00:53:28lesson.
00:53:28And I've been saying for years, just do a lesson, do a lesson.
00:53:32And he's always been moaning about it.
00:53:35And he's finally done it.
00:53:37Do you know what?
00:53:38Driving around in London, I felt this has built up a lot of confidence.
00:53:44I found with the slower spaces, yeah, it's not as scary as what I thought.
00:53:48So, no, I'm feeling, I'm feeling good.
00:53:51I'm very pleased.
00:53:53Yeah.
00:53:54Woo-hoo!
00:53:58That was fun.
00:53:59Love it.
00:54:00But, yeah.
00:54:00It was good.
00:54:02Good, I'm glad.
00:54:03I'm happy for you.
00:54:04Onwards and upwards.
00:54:05All right.
00:54:07Yep.
00:54:07I know he's going to be extremely proud of himself, as well as his whole family's going
00:54:12to be so proud of him.
00:54:13He's done such a great job getting over his fears.
00:54:23In Northolt, it's the final evening of a week that's seen Scott and Sam give up their
00:54:28millions for a completely different way of life.
00:54:31Oh, it's been a busy week.
00:54:33It has felt like it did 30 years ago.
00:54:35Got no kids round us, no grandkids round us.
00:54:38Just looking a lot older.
00:54:41But still having to watch the pennies ourselves a little bit now all them years ago, weren't
00:54:45it?
00:54:45So now it seems like the clock's come round again to us, hasn't it?
00:54:49It's a teacher something.
00:54:50Yeah, maybe it is, yeah.
00:54:51Maybe it's a little lesson to say stay grounded, eh?
00:54:54Yeah.
00:54:55Never forget your roots.
00:54:56We never will, we never would, and we'd make a trip.
00:54:59But it does put a bit of a perspective in stuff, doesn't it, you know?
00:55:02Yeah, it really does.
00:55:03Time for us, yeah.
00:55:04No work phone, no kids.
00:55:06Yeah.
00:55:07You know, it's not all about the pound over.
00:55:08Without a doubt, definitely.
00:55:10Yeah, it's really opened my eyes again, so, yeah.
00:55:14Sam's big wish for the week is Scott would learn to slow down after having a big health
00:55:20scare last year.
00:55:21Yeah.
00:55:21The morning that it happened, do you remember?
00:55:23Mm-hmm.
00:55:24How bad it was?
00:55:26And how, still, then, he was trying to tell me, I'm not going to the hospital.
00:55:31You're sweating, you're pure grey.
00:55:34Mm-hmm.
00:55:35And still, you're resisting what I'm saying because you think what I'm nagging.
00:55:41I'll do it for a reason.
00:55:43And that was, if you hadn't have gone, you wouldn't be here today, would you?
00:55:47No, you wouldn't.
00:55:49Yeah, listen, same with Sam.
00:55:50But we are here.
00:55:52We stay strong for each other.
00:55:58Scott really does need to try and slow down, and he has been told by his doctors that he
00:56:04can't have the stress.
00:56:07He has to be very careful.
00:56:10I know it's really hard for you, but you've just got to take time out.
00:56:13Work balance is not the greatest.
00:56:16You know, he doesn't want to lose his life over the business.
00:56:18So, yeah, we've had the chat.
00:56:21Whether it goes in and stays in or whether it comes out of there, we will see.
00:56:26You know, I'll be, first to admit, I've been very money-driven.
00:56:30I've pushed for my family as well as myself.
00:56:32I wouldn't say I feel ashamed.
00:56:33I feel a little bit, I've missed out on things.
00:56:35That's for sure, I'm realising that now.
00:56:38But spending quality time with Sam that, again, it wasn't costing,
00:56:42it's not costing nothing either.
00:56:47In their penthouse suite, Lee's a new man.
00:56:52It's like 15 years off you.
00:56:54So, look.
00:56:54Oh, look, there he is.
00:56:56Right, shall we get our outfits on?
00:56:58Yes, let's do that.
00:57:01Yeah, come on then, let's see.
00:57:04Oh, look at you, little posh.
00:57:09Snazzy.
00:57:10Right, you ready to go out, are you?
00:57:13Oh, you look really handsome.
00:57:16And after all the food, clothes, toys and the driving lesson.
00:57:21Anything you want.
00:57:22It's our last night as well, so why not just enjoy it?
00:57:25Yeah, go a bit mad.
00:57:26There's £300 left for a last taste of luxury.
00:57:29Can we have this champagne, please?
00:57:34We just ordered £119 bottle of champagne.
00:57:37Well, when are you ever going to do that?
00:57:38Never.
00:57:39It felt really great tonight, having a dinner with Laura
00:57:43in our nice clothes.
00:57:44And I felt like I was a million dollars.
00:57:47And it was a really nice experience going into a restaurant,
00:57:51which was pricey, but we didn't have to worry about it,
00:57:56which was nice.
00:57:57Wow.
00:58:00So, babes, how do you feel this week the experience has gone?
00:58:03I think it's been amazing.
00:58:05Truly amazing, yeah.
00:58:07We're never going to forget this, are we?
00:58:09I think we've got closer.
00:58:11We've not argued once, have we?
00:58:13Do you think that's because we've had no stress with bills?
00:58:16Yeah.
00:58:16The only stress now we should have is about pushing forward.
00:58:19Pushing forward.
00:58:20And how we're going to push forward.
00:58:21I don't see how that's going to be stressful.
00:58:23It's exciting.
00:58:24When this is done and we get back to our normal life,
00:58:26the first thing on my mind is getting that driving license.
00:58:29It's not going to be a normal life anymore.
00:58:30We're going to go places, I think.
00:58:32Well, yeah.
00:58:33It's about time.
00:58:34This has made my level.
00:58:36I want more now.
00:58:37I want more for the family.
00:58:38No, my own confidence is this has changed my perspective of everything.
00:58:42Rather than being down, you know, I'm lifted up.
00:58:45Yeah, me too.
00:58:46I'm going to take a lot away from this experience.
00:58:48A hell of a lot.
00:58:49We love each other so much.
00:58:51And we can't obviously live without each other.
00:58:53We've had our differences, we've had our struggles, but that's all in the past.
00:58:57Oh, I should give you a high five if you give me a little country with me, can we?
00:59:02Yeah.
00:59:03Oh, bless you.
00:59:05We've just been literally like honeymoon period again.
00:59:09It's a whole brand new relationship, a whole new chapter of our relationship,
00:59:14and I'm super excited to see where that's going to lead.
00:59:18Cheers.
00:59:22Coming up, when the families finally meet.
00:59:25How are you doing?
00:59:26Scott, you probably know me.
00:59:27You all right, man?
00:59:28How are you doing?
00:59:28You good?
00:59:29There's a big surprise.
00:59:31Your family will want for nothing.
00:59:32Yeah.
00:59:33If you get it right.
00:59:40Day six.
00:59:42It's the end of the swap.
00:59:43The twins have left for school and it's time for everyone to return home.
00:59:48How are you feeling about meeting Scott and Sam today, babes?
00:59:51Slightly nervous, but more excited.
00:59:54It's been an emotional time, an emotional week.
00:59:57A little bit of me sad, a little bit of me excited to be getting back to our life.
01:00:03Come on in, Sam.
01:00:04Let's go.
01:00:06Buy a house.
01:00:08Buy a house.
01:00:09Gonna miss you.
01:00:11First, the families meet up halfway between their homes and can finally talk face to face.
01:00:17All right.
01:00:18How are you doing?
01:00:19Scott, you probably know me.
01:00:20You all right, man?
01:00:21How are you doing?
01:00:21You good?
01:00:22Yeah, I've been looking forward to me.
01:00:23How are you doing?
01:00:24You all right?
01:00:24Yeah, I'm good, yeah?
01:00:26We feel like we know you already.
01:00:27Yeah, that's what we said.
01:00:29Girls have a good time?
01:00:30They loved it.
01:00:31Lovely home.
01:00:31We've never felt so comfy and relaxed.
01:00:34Made our mindset.
01:00:35Yeah, we can do this.
01:00:37We can do this.
01:00:38Yeah, we want more for our lives.
01:00:39That's good.
01:00:40For us, we've been going up the ladder for the last 30 years.
01:00:43To go back down to reality, this side of the scale, it was tough.
01:00:47That must have been a problem.
01:00:48It was tough for us, but imagine how it must be for you and the girls.
01:00:52I mean, I've been so money-motivated and driven, I just think I've been maybe brought up like that.
01:00:57Get more, get more, give the kids the best, like you go more and more and more.
01:01:01You know, the same thing, quarter to five out the door, nine, ten at night, and you're just driven, driven.
01:01:06But from your side, unbelievably tough, but there was quality time.
01:01:12And I thought to myself, Scott, you've missed this quality time.
01:01:15I spent some time spending no money with Sam, and I had some of the best times.
01:01:19I've not spent that time.
01:01:20You guys are going to know the same.
01:01:22I don't think money makes you happy, necessarily, but it definitely gives you options, right?
01:01:27Yeah.
01:01:27It definitely gives you time.
01:01:29It makes things easier.
01:01:30It takes the stress off your shoulders.
01:01:31Yes, it does.
01:01:32With this week, we've realised we're stronger now as a team, determined to make a better life for us,
01:01:39giving the kids the best we can do.
01:01:41We're in different parts in the world.
01:01:42Yeah.
01:01:42We're on a level with it.
01:01:43We're the same.
01:01:44We're doing the best we can do, right?
01:01:46And there's a big surprise coming for Lee.
01:01:49Starting with free driving lessons.
01:01:52We're looking for quality plasterers at WeFix London.
01:01:55Yeah.
01:01:55We're going to sort you out with your driving.
01:01:57I believe that will put you 1-0 up.
01:02:00You pass your driving test.
01:02:02You come and work for WeFix London.
01:02:04Constant workly.
01:02:05You haven't got to worry about it.
01:02:06It's constant work.
01:02:06Yeah.
01:02:09It's a match made in heaven.
01:02:10The surprises keep coming.
01:02:13This time, it's for Laura.
01:02:15Now, Laura, me and Sam dice with you a couple of times.
01:02:17Oh, yeah.
01:02:18You've been a difficult one.
01:02:19First of all, we went to the landscaping side of things and we had a look at it.
01:02:24And then, all of a sudden, Ash calls up and says, might have a female plumber here.
01:02:30Looks at courses for you.
01:02:32And you could do courses as a mum.
01:02:33You could do it around things.
01:02:34Okay.
01:02:34So, it could be done at a weekend.
01:02:36It could be done in the week.
01:02:37Courses about 10 grand and we would do that for you.
01:02:40Laura, then, can come and see me.
01:02:43Work at WeFix London.
01:02:44Yeah.
01:02:44And you'll be earning, as a female plumber, 100 grand upwards.
01:02:48A year.
01:02:49Jesus Christ.
01:02:49A year.
01:02:50Your family will want for nothing.
01:02:52Yeah.
01:02:52If you get it right.
01:02:55And Sam has a final thought about a great way to use their £5 million Spanish villa.
01:03:01Another thing for us is for the girls.
01:03:05Yeah.
01:03:05You can have Spain.
01:03:07What?
01:03:08For a holiday.
01:03:10We'll pay for you to come out there.
01:03:12No way.
01:03:13Yeah.
01:03:14Yeah.
01:03:14We'll pay for your flight.
01:03:15She can stay in our place.
01:03:16Oh, my God.
01:03:18So, for the girls.
01:03:20They can have their holiday.
01:03:21Thank you so much.
01:03:22Thank you so much.
01:03:24I've got me.
01:03:25I've got me.
01:03:25I've got me.
01:03:25I've got me.
01:03:26I've got me.
01:03:27I've got me.
01:03:27Two little girls.
01:03:28I'm like...
01:03:30I'm absolutely shaking because I've just been offered the opportunity of a lifetime.
01:03:35Lee, I'm not going to let you down.
01:03:36I know that.
01:03:37Honestly, Lee, I know you've got it.
01:03:38I'll be there.
01:03:38Can't wait to get back to our children and tell them that...
01:03:41Oh, the excitement just...
01:03:43We can give them loads more now.
01:03:45Thank you so much.
01:03:47I just think a week of our life has changed their life, hasn't it?
01:03:51And a week of their life has changed our life as well, hasn't it?
01:03:53Yeah, it totally has.
01:03:54Mission accomplished.
01:03:58Home time for both families.
01:04:01Can't wait to get in our bed.
01:04:04Yeah.
01:04:05With the view.
01:04:07With Natalie.
01:04:08And Natalie.
01:04:09Let's go in.
01:04:11Oh.
01:04:12It's been a while.
01:04:14You all right with that suitcase?
01:04:15Yeah.
01:04:15I'll get it up.
01:04:17High house.
01:04:17You just think even to live farther than going upstairs, don't you?
01:04:21It's a luxury, isn't it?
01:04:23Oh, what?
01:04:24What?
01:04:25We've got another bottle of Moe.
01:04:26Look at this.
01:04:27It's got their face on it.
01:04:29That's so funny.
01:04:31Natalie, we are home.
01:04:34Oh, dear.
01:04:36Oh, what?
01:04:37Oh, my God.
01:04:38Let the taps fit.
01:04:40You've got a tap there now.
01:04:41Oh, bless them.
01:04:44Oh, my God.
01:04:48This is where the whole work starts now.
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:52I just wonder where we'll be in a year's time.
01:04:55Who knows?
01:04:56Not here, hopefully.
01:04:57Not here.
01:04:58Once I get that license, everything changes.
01:05:01Oh, no.
01:05:01That's where, like Scott said, the kids are going to want for nothing.
01:05:04No.
01:05:05They're going to be...
01:05:06I'm so excited.
01:05:08Money doesn't necessarily make happiness.
01:05:10What's happening is...
01:05:11Happiness is...
01:05:12Having your family around, just Sam around me, and enjoying life.
01:05:16That's happiness.
01:05:17I'll be a lot more grateful for what I've got, that's for sure.
01:05:22Next time.
01:05:23The Lamborghini cost me €150,000.
01:05:26I use apps where I can pick up free food or heavily discounted food.
01:05:33Hurry up.
01:05:34I need a toilet.
01:05:34You're going to have to wait, Jamie.
01:05:36You're trying to get ready.
01:05:37I'm struggling, to be honest.
01:05:38Yeah, me too.
01:05:39I'm not a fan, actually.
01:05:41I don't like it.
01:05:42Get out of this, like, rot, and be able to, like, live the life that you want to live.
01:05:46No.
01:05:50And Rich House Poor House continues next Sunday at 9, or stream first on 5 from Sunday morning.
