Passport control? More like emotional control. The Slaton sisters are trading Kentucky for the UK in the upcoming episode of 1000-lb Sisters, and if the title “Bangers and Clash” is any indication, things are about to get messy across the pond. While fans have always found amusement in the family’s Kentucky-fried chaos, this first international trip threatens to amplify the drama to royal proportions.

This Tuesday’s episode sees the Slatons embarking on their first trip abroad, and London might not be quite ready for them. The episode promises a blend of historical exploration, weight-loss struggles, and emotional explosions, a concoction as volatile as a poorly mixed Pimms. Amidst the sightseeing and awkward attempts to order fish and chips, the family stumbles upon some surprising ancestral revelations. This unexpected information about their lineage may offer some heartfelt moments, but let’s be frank, we’re all here for the inevitable meltdown.

Tammy, in particular, faces formidable physical challenges during the trip. London’s cobblestone streets and historic sites are not exactly designed for easy mobility, and her physical limitations may well exacerbate existing family tensions. The trailer hints at tears, shouting matches, and at least one Slaton storming off in a huff, leaving viewers to wonder if the family trip will end in disaster before they even make it to afternoon tea.
