Perou holds an open casting for eight models to take part in an exhibition of eight pictures. He selects BB, Jay, Rob, Jesse, Charlotte, Ariella, Ocean and Jessye B. The first week sees the group doing a lingerie shoot around central London, with a picture of all eight models selected. Following this the models take part in a Heroes and Villains shoot. Perou feels Ariella is struggling with this task but she is  not given the chance to improve as BB has to leave for a dance job. In the end a single shot of Ocean is chosen. The third task sees the models taking some acting classes as they are asked to move around whilst having paint thrown at them. BB and Charlotte, who have recently become close, are chosen for the final picture. The next assignment has Jay, Charlotte, Jessye B and Jesse return to Perou's hometown of Whistable for an Ocean shoot. Jay gets drunk the night before and upsets the other models and so decides to return home  instead of taking part. Charlotte has trouble as the shoot involves being covered in fish; which she hates, however it is her photo that is selected. Areilla has problems with Perou's next assignment in Iceland as it requires her to wear nothing but her underwear and a faux fur coat. Although she goes ahead with it Perou is unimpressed with the results and decides he does not want to work with her anymore. He is impressed with Charlotte but decides to select BB's picture. Following this he has Jay, Ocean and Jesse take part in his woodland shoot . He admits that he enjoys working with Jay who does well but ultimately he chooses Ocean's picture for the exhibition. The next shoot involves Rob, Jay, Charlotte, BB and Jesse posing in a deep water tank. In order to prepare for this they pose for a life during class which helps Jay overcome some of his body issues. BB, Jesse and Rob find it difficult to pose for pictures because they are uncomfortable underwater. Perou is impressed, again, with Jay but decides to select Charlotte's picture as she captures what he was looking for perfectly. For the final  shot Perou sends the group to a country manor and selects a picture of all the models together in order to draw comparisons with the first shoot they did and the journey they have been on. He then unveils his exhibition and the models discover which shots were selected. BB, Charlotte and Ocean are pleased to see they all have solo shots but Jay and Jesse are particularly disappointed to see they have not. Perou reflects on his time with each of the models. BB struggles between putting his modelling career over his dancing. He also becomes close to Charlotte  and the two go on a date. Jay struggles to get signed because of his height and also decides he needs to curb his drinking habits whilst working. Ariella clashes with Perou over her principles with nudity. Jesse expresses wishes to get into TV presenting and performs his first gig with his band. Rob wants to branch out into high fashion despite his fitness background and Ocean wants to try her hand at the more commercial side of modelling. Episodes. <onlyinclude> </onlyinclude> Reception. The series, so far, has been met with mixed reviews with critics citing  it as yet another set-up reality show along the same lines as Made in Chelsea and Geordie Shore. Metro said "Dirty Sexy Things makes it neither Dirty nor Sexy but really rather boring". Other reviews were less negative stating the cast were "likeable bunch of model archetypes" and that the show "looks like it could offer a modicum of fun".
