Seasons


Season 1

It’s Wife Swap on holiday; two families, with polar opposite views of what makes a great family holiday, are sent off to experience each other’s holidays – together!

In week one, everyone lives by the rules of Family One; in week two, the tables are turned, and Family Two takes charge as they all embark on a very different vacation.

At the end of the two weeks, both families will come together for a Holiday Showdown Last Supper - in which they’ll give their full and frank views on their experiences.

Season 2

The holiday-pairs in this series include the Bakers, who are obsessed with banger racing, and the Armes, a peace-loving family of psychologists, who see the tranquility of the Moroccan desert as their ideal getaway; and the Churchers, shopping fanatics from Southampton who love to hit New York City looking for bargains - paired with the Bell family from West London, who are committed members of the Mormon faith and regularly visit Salt Lake City, the spiritual home of the Mormon religion.

While some of the holiday swaps end in conflict, and one doesn’t even reach completion, others have an unexpected outcome - when the families find that having their habits challenged can lead to a whole new experience of life - and even make them think twice about their own family values.
