The storyline concerned the deceased Uncle Bob's families and who would inherit his fortune. One branch was poor and common, the other branch was rich and
snobbish. Each family had two parents, a son and a daughter. The families swapped lives (although one child stayed in their own home with the newcomers) in order to see who could cope best with their new circumstances and the victors would inherit Uncle Bob's money. At the end of the first series, it was all revealed as a hoax and no-one was any better off. The second series concerned the two families working together in a factory which produced pottery
gnomes. == Regular cast ==
