Alone at Home

In this third episode, Eleanor - a marketing consultant in an affluent South London suburb - wants to see if leaving her four boys in complete freedom for a long weekend will improve how they get along with each other. Eleanor feels she's had to run the boys like 'a pack of dogs' and along with husband James she hopes the weekend will see the kids grow in confidence. Alexander, aged 13, is the eldest brother by just a few minutes from his twin Nicholas, and he tends to take charge. While Alexander wants to 'prove that we can survive without ultimate hell breaking out', Nicholas hopes to step out of his twin's shadow. Alongside the youngest sibling, eight-year-old Edward, there's also William, aged 12, who rows with his brothers the most. Can William find the space to do his own thing? After four days away, will Eleanor and James return to peace and harmony? Or will the brothers run riot?
