Brickies

It’s the start of a hot summer, and the brickies are back on the trowel, building affordable houses on a fresh site in Mansfield. Familiar faces and new starters muck-in together as the gangs go deep into the earth to lay the foundations and get this large-scale development off the ground.

With progress on the big building site in Mansfield falling behind schedule and a warning from the boss ringing in their ears, the brickies fight to complete the foundations by the end of the week. After reaching crisis point, Lucas makes a decision on his future, and labourer Lauren returns in the hope of saving the day.

A posh housing development in Leicester brings new challenges for the brickies. Jeorgia has plans to build her own home, and boxer Charlie’s hopes for a title fight take a knock.

After a telling-off from the boss, the brickies double down on the build. Despite the struggles on site, a go-karting trip provides a chance to let off steam.

Emotions run high in Stoke-on-Trent as apprentice Leah struggles with her work. New labourer and DJ Elliott makes a fast impression, and boxer Charlie finally has his title fight.

A big inspection from the boss looms, Jeorgia and her dad head to the tattoo parlour, while the brickies join DJ Elliott for the gig of a lifetime.
