Wife Swap

The Carters and the Dales
First Broadcast: Sat 19 December 2009

It's the last ever Wife Swap, as Bentley-driving lady-of-leisure Torre Carter from Kent, swaps with mum-of-seven Sam Dale, who lives in one of Britain's largest council estates in Hull.

The swapped wives agree to live by each other's rules, before getting a chance to make dramatic changes to how the house and family are run. How does a Mum of seven from a big estate react when she first encounters a lady who lunches? What do seven children get up to when their new Mum encourages them to take on more responsibility? And what happens when a woman who is trying her best in difficult circumstances feels under attack?
