Halifax and Oxford

Episode 2 of 3

Couples have their household activity analysed to find out who does what. Both Paddy and Joy feels that their partners need to pull their weight with the chores.

In this new series, six couples undergo the most probing and thorough relationship audit imaginable. Undergoing 24 hour filmed surveillance, statistics reveal the percentage of who really does what in the couples' relationships. Household activity is analysed using hard facts and figures, comparing what couples think they do with what they actually do.

In this episode, Gemma and Paddy from Halifax, and Joy and David from Oxford are given the unique opportunity to settle the argument over who does the most in their homes, once and for all. Over nine days their lives have been closely monitored and now they are to be shown the statistical, irrefutable evidence of who really does what.

Paddy feels he does the lion's share of the work at home and believes partner Gemma needs to pull her weight. Is he right?

Joy and David live in an idyllic home with their daughter Eve, but Joy feels that eco-warrior David would rather spend his days chopping logs for their wood burning stove than help out with domestic chores. But will the statistical evidence of their home life back up her view? This innovative new series will shine a forensic light on relationships.
