Watch this episode now on 4oD Amish: World's Squarest Teenagers

The Amish teenagers stay with a family in the Kent countryside. The teenagers have not encountered creative pursuits - which are actively discouraged in Amish communities - before, so how do they react when they discover the teenage children are into music and art and when they're introduced to the son's indie band?

What do they think when they hear this 'ungodly' music and learn about the hedonistic lifestyle of the band? At the end of the week, the band are playing at a summer music festival and the Amish are invited to camp and get a taste of British teenage life in the summer.

The two cultures are clearly worlds apart but do all the new experiences make any of them start to question their own upbringing?

The Amish also visit the sea for the first time and there's further insight into the conservative Amish way of life.
