Show seeks home owners

PRODUCERS are looking for proud householders in Leicestershire to show off their homes on a new TV show.

Sidney Street, the makers of Mary Berry Everyday, Classic Mary Berry and The Farmers’ Country Showdown, are behind the new show which will be called The Best House in Town.

The series wants to present people who all go the extra mile to make their houses stand out from the crowd, compete against each other.

With local neighbours doing the judging, it’s a competition that celebrates the best of British ingenuity, creativity and good old-fashioned pride.

Each episode will visit a new area of the country and feature a number of different properties, varying in style, size, aesthetic and comfort – all seeking to be the best house in their town.

Executive producer Lucy Shepherd said: ‘We’re searching for super-proud home owners who’ve put their absolute everything into creating a dream home that stands out from the neighbours.

“No matter what shape or size, from the modern apartment, to the Victorian townhouse, ex-council or even something a little bit unconventional... if you think you’ve got the best house on the street, we’d love to hear from you.

“Alternatively, if you’re a property-obsessive highly inquisitive local with big opinions, who just loves to look around other people’s houses then do get in touch too.” Call 0208 222 4923 or e-mail: ben.ibbott@sidneystreet.tv
