Episode 2

How will the girls manage doing manual unglamourous jobs for very little money? And how will they feel when they find themselves excluded from a lavish black-tie event?

Four posh, pampered and privileged young ladies have swapped their affluent lives down south for ten days of living in one of the most disadvantaged wards in Newcastle.

When they first arrived, Steph, Fi, Lucy and Fiona moved in to an ex-council house in Walker and began ten days of budget living. Paired with four local women who've volunteered to act as personal guides, their eyes were opened to the hardships of living with little money.

Next on the Geordie Finishing School curriculum is 'work'. How will the girls manage doing manual unglamorous jobs for very little money? And how will they feel when the boot is firmly on the other foot and they find themselves excluded from a lavish black-tie event at a 14th-century castle?
