BBC Three - The World's Strictest Parents, Series 2, India

Peter and Jocelyn Harris spend a week with the Unnikrishnan family in Pune, India.

Unruly British teenagers are sent abroad to live with strict families. Peter and Jocelyn stay with the Unnikrishnans, a hard-working, successful family from Pune, India.

Two wayward British teenagers experience strict parenting on the other side of the world.

Sixteen-year-old public school drop out Peter Wrigley from Dorset, and 17-year-old party-loving Jocelyn Harris from Sussex, get new parents in Pune, a thriving city known as the Oxford of the East, three hours from Mumbai. 

They must spend a week living under the strict rules of the Unnikrishnans, a modern Indian family who strive for excellence in everything they do. Dad Unni is the self-made CEO of a multinational company, while mum Madhu stays at home to look after their only child, 15-year-old Siddarth. The Unnikrishnans believe that getting a good education is the key to success in life, and the Brits attend one of the most sought-after schools in the country. 

Over the week, the teenagers are strictly supervised as they get a taste of Indian life by doing charity work in the city slums and factory work at Unni's company. 

Can the Unnikrishnans' intensely education-focused lifestyle impact on the British teens?
