At a time when society is more divided than ever, this social experiment takes a group of individuals from different generations and attempts to bridge the age gap by moving them all into one house for two weeks.

– EPISODE GUIDE –

Episode 1

Even on arrival tension is in the air and Gay Marriage is the first topic that divides Old and Young. Archaic views on homosexual relationships collide with the loose sexual attitudes of the millennial generation. During the first dinner, an attempt at getting to know each other triggers an uncomfortable debate about the use of the racial slur, “Paki”, which reveals controversial opinions from the older generation.

Episode 2

After an eventful 72 hours together, most of the residents have found their feet – but Naman (27) is feeling isolated. His romance with Jed is over – and the discussion around his religion is beginning to bore him. Despite being proud of his Muslim status, he reacts badly when retired Detective Kevin questions how he can be a true Muslim when he drinks alcohol and eats pork.

Episode 3

After an explosive row with Ty and Jed, Naman has left the house. But in morning the rest of the residents are distracted by a package arriving for Tracey – a delivery of fresh sperm from her ex-lover. To the shock of the housemates, she drinks it – insisting it’s a necessary protein supplement for vegan lifestyle – sparking a huge row with Kevin, who insists Tracey needs psychological help – and locks himself in the bathroom.

Episode 4

After two young people left, there are just 4 young and 6 older volunteers in the experiment. As the remaining 10 attempt to bridge the generation gap the debate turns political, exposing deep divisions that threaten to overwhelm the harmony of the group.

Episode 5

As we enter the last 48 hours of the experiment the community is split and not everyone is willing to forgive Ty when she returns to the house after an explosive row with Joey and Jed. With tension in the air, Tye’s impersonation of police brutality during a game of Articulate is the tipping point for Bob and Kev who have had enough of the youngsters’ behaviour.
