Changing Rooms

Channel 4, 8pm

It was the show that for eight years on the BBC urged us all to ditch the magnolia and get out our paintbrushes and DIY tools to improve our homes. Now Changing Rooms itself has had a makeover as it returns after 17 years away from our screens.

Not only has it switched to Channel 4 but there’s also a different line-up, with the returning Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen now joined by C4 regular Anna Richardson (both right). Jordan Cluroe and Russell Whitehead, of ever so fashionable interior designers 2LG Studio, are there to provide their expert advice, while carpenter Tibby Singh adds his practical know-how.

Each week there are two sets of homeowners facing the challenge of making over a part of each other’s house, starting in Swansea, where it’s all change for florist Claire’s living room and postal worker Lisa’s bedroom.
