Wife Swap

The Ramos' and the Griffiths

Watch this episode now on 4oD Ramos and Griffiths

In Sheffield, Anita Ramos and her Brazilian husband Marcelo spend every day together, working as professional acrobats and performers. They've been inseparable since they met 14 years ago. Their children, 13-year-old Jordan and five-year-old Samuel, spend over nine hours each week trampolining and tumbling.

In Worcester, classroom assistant Julie Griffiths and IT sales executive David have been married for almost 20 years but now lead almost separate lives. Both parents work hard to give their four children - Tabitha (16), Amber (14), Elliot (13) and Tristan (11) - what they consider to be the best start in life: sending all four of them to private school and managing a host of extra-curricular activities.

The wives have agreed to swap families to see what they can learn from the experience. How does a proud dad cope when he thinks his family is under attack? What happens when a new wife asks some tough questions? And how does a child with few boundaries at home cope with a new regime?
