Episode 1: Simone and Phillip vs Nicky and Steve
- Now playing
- 1h
- Mar 3, 2011
The villagers must confront their feelings on racial diversity as a young black family compete against a Yorkshireman, his girlfriend and her three teenagers. Simone and Phillip, both 35, have three young children, sons Lewis (7), Joel (4) and Elliot (3). They currently live in Epsom Downs and felt the move to Grassington was too good an opportunity to miss. However, as a young black family they are conscious that they will be very conspicuous in the largely white, middle class village of Grassington. After introducing themselves in the local pub, Simone and Phillip decide to go door to door to meet as many people as possible. Phillip is keen to put his aspirations to be an MP to good use and sets up a 'surgery' to help locals with any issues. Partners Nicky and Steve, aged 48 and 49, are keen to escape Birmingham - the 'grey faceless city' that is currently their home - and move to Grassington with Nicky's three children Harvey (17), Otis (14) and Matilda (12). Yorkshireman Steve, a strapping carpenter and builder, is quickly welcomed to the village, especially by the ladies. As Steve demonstrates his handyman skills, Nicky takes more of a behind-the-scenes role and plans a drinks party. But her teenage sons fail to deliver the invites and head off to the chippy instead. As party time arrives it becomes apparent no one from the village is coming. Undeterred by some frosty responses to the arrival of their family, Simone and Phillip press on proving their worth as engaging potential neighbours. The pair set about organising a variety night in the local town hall with acts of all ages from the village. The variety night is a roaring success, showcasing local talent as well as Phillip's rendition of My Way. Have Phillip and Simone done enough to impress the village and guarantee votes, or can Steve's Yorkshire charm help carry his family through to the next round?
Episode 2: Sarah vs Donna and Louise
- 1h
- Mar 10, 2011
The villagers welcome nude model Sarah and lesbian couple Donna and Louise, who are hoping to start a family in Grassington. Single mum and life model Sarah, her daughter Aysha and son Sol currently live in Glastonbury, but are Yorkshire folk born and bred. Keen to make a bold first impression when introduced to villagers in the pub, Sarah sets out her plans to pose for local artists in a life drawing class and to hold a charity auction to win a date with her. Both ideas receive a frosty reception, especially from some of the village wives. Meanwhile Donna, who works in customer services, and Louise, a tiler, have been married four years and tell the villagers they hope to start a family of their own soon thanks to IVF treatment on the NHS. In a bid to win over the mums, Donna heads to the village toddler group to talk about their IVF plans. She also plans a cookie-decorating party in the square for local children. The two families' mentor for the week, Jane Walmsley, hosts lunch on her farm for some of Grassington's key faces to get to know Sarah, Donna and Louise better. But Sarah has to defend herself as a life model when some members of the group feel she may be perceived as promiscuous. Events take a turn for the worse when pub landlord Stuart faces a walkout from his staff who are opposed to Sarah's charity date auction. Can she turn things around before the vote, or is village life proving anything but the idyllic dream she hoped for?
Episode 3: Kate and Corwen vs Jay and Steph
- 1h
- Mar 17, 2011
Musicians Kate and Corwen face salesman Jay and his wife Steph. Traveller musicians Kate and Corwen have spent more than a decade living in a caravan miles from anyone. Their bohemian lifestyle draws some wide-eyed disapproval from the community and 'freaks people out'. But their decision to put on a folk music night for the village goes down well with the more creative locals and their Viking instrument stand in the village square is a winner with the village children. Self confessed 'Del Boy' Jay, his pregnant wife Steph and their two young children are welcomed by many in the village as their young family would mean more children for the village schools. But Jay and Steph's Prince and Princess of Grassington pageant descends into chaos and some in the village begin to question if they are really putting enough effort in to win such a life-changing prize. Both couples are feeling the tension, and feedback from the village stirs up emotions. At the halfway point the village finds itself divided right down the middle, and beginning to question what it is they really want for their community.

Married London professionals Sunny and Anoop compete against Surrey-based couple Vicky and Andy. Vicky and Andy would like to get married but still live with their parents. Introducing themselves to the locals in the pub, Sunny and Anoop reel off their impressive qualifications (Sunny has a PhD in Education from Oxford and Anoop a PhD in astrophysics), which causes a few raised eyebrows. Sunny wants to open minds while she's in the village by introducing Grassington to her and Anoop's Indian heritage, while Vicky and Andy pledge to be useful citizens. But Andy soon realises that the community may not like someone competing with locals for work. Sunny and Anoop's Bollywood-themed fundraiser draws in 50 visitors to the cottage, but Vicky's Latin dance class gets young and old on to the dance floor. As Grassington goes to the polls, which couple has done enough to win over the locals and secure a place in the next round?

- 1h
- Apr 7, 2011

The children would be an enormous asset to the village school and the family immediately feel at home. Meeting villagers in one of the local pubs Craig and Dean are warned that some in the village still have very traditional views and may not like the fact that they are gay. Undeterred, Dean's attempt at schmoozing the locals with trendy free haircuts goes down well with the younger generation. And keen to prove he is not afraid of hard work he offers to put his hairdressing skills to good use and help out local farmer with his sheep shearing.
