As the new ladettes arrive, the Eggleston hall teachers soon realise that they have been set a huge challenge.

Liz Brewers sexual etiquette lessons tug a few unexpected heartstrings with Becky Squire, self confessed man eater- who vows to change for good.

Back at Eggleston hall, the first of the weekly assessments are a lot harder than the ladettes had imagined, the teachers do not hold back in their criticism. The first ladette is asked to leave.

Episode 4

This week the teachers leave the five ladettes alone at Eggleston Hall to host a country house weekend. They will be provided with domestic staff including a butler and must lay on two days of well-planned hospitality for a selection of eligible bachelors. Leaving the ladettes in charge of Eggleston Hall is a huge gamble and there’s little sign they are up to the challenge. Taken to a smart bar in Harrogate by Etiquette teacher Liz Brewer the ladettes get plastered and Essex Hairdresser Frances Rowe flashes her breasts. The following morning they are confronted by cookery teacher Rosemary Shrager who asks if any of them really become ladies? Frances is chastened and she tearfully confesses all promising to turn over a new leaf. Over the next few days the ladettes are determined to show the staff that they can behave like responsible young adults and the prospect of some of their favourite bachelors coming to stay provides additional motivation. On Friday morning the staff leave the school and Frances Rowe is left in charge of the key. She’s determined to prove that she could be lady of the manor but scouser Louise Porter has other ideas and starts drinking almost as soon as the teachers have gone. By the time the guests arrive Louise is getting out of control and after dinner she tries to get everyone to play a risqué game called Bottom’s which involves blindfolding the bachelors and making them feel their hostess’s bottoms. Frances is having none of it and decorum briefly prevails. But the tension erupts in a ugly catfight in the early hours and the Frances and Louise have to be separated by their appalled guests. The following morning Principal Gill Harbord is called back to the school and one of the girls expelled. The four ladettes remaining, try hard to get the house party back on track and with the teachers due to return for the black-tie dinner dance on Saturday evening there’s everything to play for. Remarkably, the ladettes rise to the occasion and the evening is an unexpected success. The following morning the girls face the ordeal of the weekly assessments and this week the price of failure is especially harsh. The girl who is expelled today will lose the chance to reach the final week which climaxes in a grand Society Ball

Episode 5

It's the fifth and final week at Eggleston Hall and only three ladettes are left at the Finishing School. Now they face the ultimate challenge: to "come out" at a Debutantes' Ball. Wearing dresses they have made Eggleston Hall the ladettes will each make an entrance and be judged on their poise, grooming, confidence and elocution by a selection of aristocrats including Lady Alexandra Roche, Sir David Roche and Sir Tobias Clarke. The ladettes will come out alongside seven real debutantes and failure to measure up will result in public humiliation. It's the final test of whether Finishing School has worked and at the end of it one of the ladettes will be declared the winner. In addition to preparing for the Ball the girls must pass exams in all subjects in order to graduate. They've got just four days left to perfect their flower-arranging, elocution, deportment, and to make a gigantic seven-tiered cake which will be on display at the ball threatening to collapse spectacularly if they get it wrong. The Ball is being held at a grand country house in North Yorkshire. As the first debutantes make an entrance the staff are in despair: the competition looks insurmountable. But as the ladettes make an entrance in their stunning Lindka Cierach ball dresses they are truly unrecognisable. The girls have performed better than any of the teachers expected and the aristocrats are suitably impressed. And after five weeks the people who sent them to Eggleston Hall in the first place - their parents - arrive at the Ball to behold the finished articles. All that remains is for the teachers to decide who shall be declared the winner.
