Chris and Julia England have three children - nine-year-old Billy and twins coming up to the terrible twos. Julia is a classroom assistant who has just learned that her contract will not be renewed, and Chris is a lorry driver who works shifts. Julia and Chris are spending fortunes at their local takeaways which they have on speed dial, and they have never been to a butcher's or fishmonger's for fresh produce. They really want to eat better for less - as a family - but don't know how to. Will the family stick to the Economy Gastronomy plan, reduce their food bills and successfully cook every meal for a week from scratch?
With a surprise visit from the in-laws, how will Julia and Chris cope when they're challenged to cook a three-course meal for six people against the clock, using only the principles of Economy Gastronomy and with just ten pounds extra for ingredients?
