NICK KNOWLES’ BIG HOUSE CLEAROUT
Channel 5, 8pm
CLUTTER is the latest problem that TV shows want to fix. Everyone from Marie Kondo to Stacey Solomon is cleaning up with this format, and Nick Knowles heads up this offering.
He and his team “rescue families across Britain who are crushed by their clutter”.
Nick is offering the families he meets a life-changing deal – ditch at least half your clutter and get a stunning top-to-toe home makeover, for free. It’s a win, win.
In this episode he’s in Portsmouth where three generations are squeezed together in a three-bed semi bursting at the seams.
It’s going to be particularly emotional as the house is full of memories after Sarah’s husband Trevor passed away.
Sarah struggles to sort through a lifetime of belongings, while her daughter Stevie’s cake-making paraphernalia has reached epic proportions, and five-year-old granddaughter Hermione has hundreds of soft toys.
Nearly 300 boxes of possessions are transferred to a ballroom and the sort out begins. But the miracle makeover is not without challenges.
