Tuna
To begin with, the Brits tackle Indonesia's tuna industry in Bitung on the island of Sulawesi. In the UK, they consume over a billion tins of tuna a year and Bitung's canneries supply to many British supermarkets and sandwich chains. The Brits live with tuna workers in basic communities, endure 90-degree heat in the canneries and struggle with the harsh realities of life on a traditional wooden tuna boat in the western Pacific. The extreme conditions affect them all in many different ways, as do the hand to mouth existence of the workers they live with.
Prawns
The Brits arrive in Kalimantan, Indonesia to live and work alongside the workers in the prawn industry. Their home is a shack in the jungle with no beds, no TV and no running water and dinner is what you can catch. Instead of fishing for prawns in the ocean, the Brits are surprised to find themselves waist deep in mud working on a prawn farm. For these six young consumers, biting into a prawn mayo sandwich will never be the same again, but the group is given a glimmer of hope with the arrival of a British farmer to join their team.
Rice
The teenagers travel to Thailand to experience working in the country's rice fields. Can they handle the back-breaking working conditions of the 90 degree heat in the rice fields, with only one banana and a slice of bread to eat?
Chicken
The teenagers work in a chicken factory in Bangkok. The group joins the 4,000 workers on the cutting room floor where they process 140,000 birds. Every employee on this line is expected to separate 12 pieces of chicken a minute.
