George Clarke presents a series which proves that even the ugliest houses can with help from some of the country's leading architects be transformed with next to no budget.
Following the transformation of a 70s house in the Vale of Glamorgan.
A Berkshire home is transformed, to be made bigger to fit a ever-expanding family.
Sue and Simon's awkward house is revamped, inside and out, by architect Laura Jane Clark, including a moved staircase, a revolving wall, skylights and a new paint job outside
Architect Will Alsop designs a dramatic barrel-vaulted extension for Tammy and Stuart's outdated bungalow in a West Sussex village. Will the neighbours approve?
In episode five, Architect Jo Cowen helps Denise and Ali give their uninspiring Croydon council house a new lease of life
George is joined by leading architects to help transform some of Britain's most unloved houses into desirable properties. In the first episode the team meet Simon and Lisa, who recently bought a building in rural Gloucestershire in such a shoddy state that neighbours compared it to the house in Amityville Horror. George teams the couple up with creative architect Laura Clark, who attempts to turn this terrifying building into a warm and welcoming, modern home, whilst retaining some of its original character.
In the second episode, George Clarke is joined by leading architects to help transform a house belonging to Nick and Sonia, an appallingly designed flat spread over three dysfunctional car parking spaces. George charges award-winning architects Abigail Ashton and Andrew Porter with creating something beautiful from this monstrosity. But working with a budget of £75,000, can they transform this foul flat into a proper home with two floors? And what will the pair's neighbours make of the drastic changes?
George challenges innovative architect Greg Blee with transforming an impractical, upside down house with a mishmash of living spaces for Martyn and Sally. The building is so badly laid out that to get from the kitchen to the garden you must go through the master bedroom, but can Greg create a design that works on Martyn and Sally's budget of £65,000?
Architect Chris Dyson helps Wendy and Allan in Colchester, who are desperate to transform their horrible-looking 1960s home into something more modern. Adamant that the house needs a drastic makeover externally and a major reconfiguration internally, can Chris satisfy their high expectations while sticking to their £150,000 budget?
Sheffield architects Howard Evans and Prue Chiles set out to transform Mandy's 1980s redbrick house, which stands out like a sore thumb among the grand Victorian properties it sits alongside on Nottingham's prestigious Park Estate. The duo are familiar with unlocking the potential of buildings, but this could be their biggest challenge yet.
George gets architect Carl Turner to help a family with a radical revamp of their bungalow home. Will a mini budget of £45,000 be enough?
Steve and Celine's tatty 1960s A-frame has become a neglected embarrassment. George enlists innovative architect Graeme Williamson to help revive it.
George visits a 1920s house in south London that isn't just dark and ugly, some of it's been condemned. Can the owners and a smart architect transform the place on a tight budget?
Lucas and Hayley's 1970s home is bland, boxy and has a dysfunctional garage. Can architect Chris Dyson's radical ideas turn things around?
George revisits Mandy to see if she has completed the transformation of her upside-down house into a stylish, contemporary family space
Fiona and Hugh hate absolutely everything about their home, except for the garden. They're won over by architect Greg Blee's modernist designs, but local planners aren't. Can they get the go-ahead?
Matt and Kevin's dark and dated, 1930s three-up-three-down stands out from the crowd for all the wrong reasons. Can they turn this badly designed beast into a beauty?
Greg and Helen want to fix their cramped 1930s Sheffield eyesore before their baby arrives. With challenges mounting, can they complete the redesign in time?
George revisits Wendy and Alan in Colchester, whose transformation of their sad 1960s property was halted when they blew their budget. Is it now complete?
George revisits Armin and Amifa, whose budget was sapped by their featureless suburban home's downstairs and an awful extension, leaving the upstairs unfinished. But is it now complete?
George looks back at some of the most radical transformations from the series, including an awful 80s home that was mostly garage, a depressing bungalow and a house with unusual garden access
