Episode 2

This week the Choudhury family from Leicester join Angellica and Ortis to get help in choosing the best products, at the best price, to make their busy lives just that little bit easier. The active family of five have a range of issues which need the best value-for-money solution.

With a new baby in the household, childproofing their home is a priority – but without ruining the décor! Secondly, the impressive full-length bi-fold windows, which are the feature piece of their new home extension, look amazing but are a pain to keep clean. Finally, the two football-mad daughters are desperate for some kit to fit in the back garden which would allow them to train together and improve their ball control skills. For each dilemma Angellica and Ortis offer options and advice – always tailored to the family's lifestyle and budget.

Jon investigates whether the best value lies when trying to create the shop-bought coffee experience at home. He compares two domestic coffee machines – one a premium offering and the other at the budget end of the market – to see if you really do need to spend a lot of dough to get a really good cup of joe. And Georgie tackles car ownership and driving – is it really possible to be kinder to the planet and your wallet?

Episode 3

Angellica Bell and Ortis Deley are joined by brothers Cameron and Lewis from Scotland. Still living at home with Mum, they're often roped into house chores but when it comes to the garden, they have no idea where to start and need a helping hand, so they don't kill all the flowers. Additionally, football coach Cameron is looking for a new pair of boots – but with some models costing way over £100 he's hoping to find a more budget friendly option that still performs well. Lewis hopes to become a better home cook, so the presenting duo present him with a kitchen innovation that's not only great for cooking but is practical too.

Jon Bentley hunts for a new pair of binoculars while on safari. With most of us only using them on occasion though, he's picked up two pairs under £150 to see which is best value. Georgie Barrat uncovers what we should be doing with our electronic waste. From cables to lightbulbs and vacuum cleaners to old phones, our homes are full of the stuff. She shows us a simple way to recycle them properly, while also making a little bit of money along the way.
