The kids make their way south west, to work in a clothes recycling centre in Bristol.

Five kids live and work alongside the people in Britain who make and do the things they rely on. The kids make their way south west, to a clothes recycling centre in Bristol.

A group of five spoilt kids from around the country live and work alongside the people in Britain responsible for making or doing the things they rely on every day of their lives.

In the last leg of their tour around Britain's workplaces our five pampered kids have one last chance to prove themselves. They make their way south west this time, to a clothes recycling centre in Bristol where much of our throwaway fashion ends up. Every day, hundreds of items of discarded clothing are unpacked and sorted and sifted in a vast warehouse, to be sent abroad for resale. The kids cannot believe the scale of the operation and are even more shocked to discover that most of the processes are done by hand. Will they finally be able to prove to a boss that they have what it takes to act like a normal worker and get on with the job, quickly, quietly and without fuss? And what happens when they go home to the families at the end of their final shift - has this trip changed anything about their attitudes and behaviour?
