Over the course of four weeks, with the support and help of experts, each household will learn where they are going wrong by taking on challenges to make improvements inside and outside of their home.

Their water, waste, energy and food habits will come under the scrutiny of data collectors that record every detail of the family's day from a social distance.

There is also €5,000 up for grabs for the most improved household over the 4 week period.

The programme begins at 6.30 on RTE 1 this evening.
