With two terms of transforming some of Britain’s most extreme ladettes into respectable ladies under their belt, the revered tutors at Eggleston Hall thought they had seen it all. But a third intake is set to be – by their own admission - their biggest challenge yet.

The famous finishing school opens its doors for a new term as its indomitable staff attempt to transform the most obnoxious and unrepentant ladettes they have ever seen.

In Programme Two the girls prepare to host a dinner party for their new acquaintances, the eligible bachelors, but a trip to the pub brings disastrous consequences and several of the girls are left questioning if they have what it takes to complete the course.

Before they can be taught to behave like ladies the girls must look like ladies, so a team of experts are brought in to make them over and attempt to explain the subtleties of ladylike grooming. Kelly is less than impressed by the suggestions of hairdresser Judy Russo complaining:

“I’m gonna look like an absolute cock. I’m known as Kelly with the long black swaying hair. Now I’m gonna be like, Kelly with short hair, look like Jodie f*cking Marsh.”

The teaching staff are of a different opinion and are so impressed by how lovely the ladettes look they decide that an unchaperoned trip to the pub is in order. Announcing the decision cooker teacher Rosemary Shrager warns: “now remember, you look like young ladies, you should act like young ladies. You’re ambassadors to Eggleston Hall, do not disgrace us”.

True to ladette form, her pleas fall on deaf ears and no sooner have the girls arrived at the pub than the shots are flowing resulting in Simone throwing up on the floor of the bar whilst Holly straddles a shocked looking local lad. Bouncer Kelly finally takes control and orders the girls home a mere ten minutes late to face a furious Rosemary Shrager.

Despite their outrageous behaviour at the pub, Holly and Simone are selected to be the hostesses for the ladettes’ dinner party, but both girls feel this is a dubious honour.

“We’re sort of like slaves,” comments Holly. “We shouldn’t have p*ssed about should we, that’s why they’ve given us this job” counters Simone.

Despite a few hiccups, dinner is a success. However, as the evening progresses so does the girls alcohol consumption, ending in disaster as the indignant batchelors are abandoned while Holly is put to bed by a notably softened Gill Harbord and Amber has a party of her own outdoors.

After an eventful week none of the girls are confident of their survival on evictions day, but a shocking revelation changes everything.

Episode two of Ladette To Lady will air on Tuesday the 29th of January on ITV1
