Single mother Claire Lee leaves her terraced home in Wolverhampton to live in a 5-bedroom home belonging to cardiologist and paediatrician Mahrous and Rana Alsoud.

The Leamon family leave their four bedroom terrace house on a council estate to live in the Fiddles family's six bedroom house set in sixty acres.
