    Well, I'm neither a parent nor a 16-18 year old, but it's a good programme so I thought it was worth a shameless bump.

    I watch it.

    Sometimes you think any 2 kidsfrom the UK would do.

    They ought to let the parents slap the kids a bit.

    Funny how 3 days mellow them though - and then they get their letters from home.

    I presume there is a load of footage that we don't see. The kids arrive, refuse to abide by the household rules and are constantly rude to the parents. Usually after a while we see them read a letter from home or have a deep conversation with one of the parents and, just like that, the kids are transformed and don't want to leave! It's so predictable. I can only recall one case where a girl actually did go home early.

    I'd love to see a lot more of the kids being unruly towards the new parents, not just "no, not doing it".... "you have to"... "Ok, I'll do it". If they were that easy to push over they wern't great candidates for the show in the first place. Seeing the conflict is much more engaging than watching them turn into pussycats and doing whatever theyre asked 2 days in.

    I'm watching this series, quite entertaining in places even if the kids are a tad irritating! :D

    I'd like to see an update at the end of each episode: Two or three months on, for example, to show if the kids really have changed or if they're still being little sods :o

    Hopefully there will be an update episode as there was for the last series. I can't remember if it was immediately after it ended or a few weeks later. It didn't feature all the teens though.
