Barely Legal Drivers

First up are two very different characters. Tommy thinks he could give Lewis Hamilton a run for his money, while Chantelle is a prime candidate for anger management. Tommy’s behaviour both in and out of the car is a cause for concern for his parents as he inflates condoms, snogs his way round clubs and even gets breathalysed. Seeing him up close makes dad Ajay want to become a better father. For Chantelle it’s a heady mix of screaming and near misses as she combines her road rage with an addiction for using her phone while driving. It’s uncomfortable viewing for her dad, Mike.

Bradley and Kayla are teenagers who like to party. Jack the lad Bradley dreams of being a premier league footballer while Kayla is the apple of her driving instructor dad’s eye. With bickering, brawls and one of them even being over the legal driving limit the next morning after a heavy night, it’s questionable whether either of the two barely legal drivers deserve their own car or should they go back to driving school?

In this episode, we meet two teens who love life: nineteen-year-old glamour girl Amy, who hopes to be Yorkshire's answer to Katie Price, and James, an identical twin from Middlesbrough. Student Amy may be confident enough to strip down to her undies for a photo shoot but when it comes to driving, it's a different matter. What with going through red lights, pulling out in front of a bus and stopping dead on a motorway slip road, it isn't just Amy who is a nervous wreck; it's her mum too. Unemployed James has spent the last year applying for over a hundred jobs, and the constant rejection has knocked his confidence. But behind the wheel he is full of bravado, so much so he will happily drive with almost zero visibility. With in-car peer-group pressure, death-defying manoeuvres and life-saving reactions, do these two barely legal drivers deserve their own car or should they go back driving school?

Nineteen-year-old Caz, an Essex girl who is 'not backwards in coming forwards', and Lloyd, a 19-year-old drama student living in Cardiff are two very different teens. Confident Caz is convinced she has got this driving lark sussed, despite only passing her test a year ago, but is she really as confident in practice as she proclaims to be? Lloyd loves playing the joker but, after two crashes a few years ago, and a driving tragedy close to home, is he likely to play the joker in the car? With bad weather, bumps and breathalysers, the big questions are: do these two barely legal drivers deserve their very own car, or will they be heading back to driving school?

Twenty-year-old student and party girl Lauri from Kingston-upon-Thames has a brilliant relationship with her parents, but hasn't driven a car since she wrote her eighteenth birthday present off, two years ago. Eighteen-year-old supermarket worker Dean from Polegate near Eastbourne has a fractious relationship with his dad, but all he wants is for his dad to be proud of him. However, he doesn't do himself any favours by smoking in the car, speeding and driving dangerously in terrible weather. With dodgy driving, disappointed parents and dead batteries, do these two barely legal drivers deserve their own car or should they get ready to head back to driving school?

Matthew is a gay drama student from Wales. Having suffered homophobic abuse on public transport, he grabs his opportunity to drive his mum's car with both hands - unfortunately they are not always on the wheel. With loads of diva-like screaming, running red lights and an argument with a concrete pillar, Matthew's mum is less than impressed. 18-year-old party girl Georgina from Cambridgeshire thinks nothing of going on holiday with seven boys - minus her boyfriend. But when it comes to city centre driving, she falls apart at the seams and is not helped by passengers who do their best to distract her. Her parents are quite rightly worried. With much shouting, screaming and slamming of breaks throughout, do these two barely legal drivers deserve their own own car or should they be heading back to driving school?
