ITV2 presents this exciting new series with the infamous Kelly Osbourne. Over three hour-long episodes, viewers will see Kelly discover the bizarre and unknown society of Japan by taking the ultimate working holiday. Throwing herself into a wide range of jobs and after-work activities, Kelly struggles with the language barrier and homesickness. It’s a rollercoaster ride as Kelly is unleashed amongst the politest society on earth! Kelly Osbourne Turning Japanese is brand new and exclusive to ITV2, Thursdays from 1 February at 9pm.

Japan and its culture have been an obsession for Kelly from a very young age and in this series she plunges into the most bizarre, unusual and culturally alien activities. Kelly uncovers the unknown stories of Japanese society and experiences both the old and the new in one of the world’s most traditionally closed nations. Kelly uncovers strange and compelling regimes and turns Japanese in mind, body and soul.

In this series Kelly is not simply observing Japanese life and culture – she’s living it at the deep end! She undertakes big, exciting and potentially life-changing challenges, inspired by ancient Japanese culture as well as modern day Japan. Kelly is the first to admit her life has been one of privilege, freedom and ballsy self-conviction but does Turning Japanese make her reassess her life and help her to find inner peace and calm?

In episode one, Kelly meets her Japanese companion Yumi who proves to be an invaluable help throughout her stay. Settling into her chic downtown apartment on her first night, Kelly has a comical time getting to grips with Japan’s automated toilets. The next morning Kelly is ready to begin her new adventure. She battles with the highly confusing Tokyo subway while making her way to her first job as a waitress in a ‘geek’ café. Once she has been let loose amongst the geeks, Kelly spills the coffee she is serving and can barely suppress fits of laughter. When asked if she has ever been a waitress before she retorts: “I’m a spoilt brat who was brought up in Buckinghamshire and Beverley Hills. Do I look like I’ve ever been a waitress?�

Kelly’s next post is as a receptionist at one of Japan’s busiest ‘Love Hotels’. In these palaces of passion, couples can live out their fantasies away from the prying eyes of parents and neighbours. Kelly is soon caught up in the mayhem of checking couples in and out of the hotel, cleaning rooms and keeping red hot lovers fuelled with sex toys, beer and…pot noodles! The episode closes with Kelly attending a Samurai class with Grand master Mr Weno. Will Kelly impress her Grand master enough to take part in a highly respected public performance, where even a foot out of place is an insult?

This show airs on ITV2 Thursday 1 February 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM
