Episode 1

The architect meets Duncan and Josie, who are taking on an 18th-century barn perched on the edge of a pretty green, containing some very dodgy décor including a purple stripped '80s kitchen and a miniature kitchen extension built to house a washing machine. Duncan and Josie need to make it liveable very quickly as they welcome their new baby Ruby, so George sets out to make the dark, cramped layout work for modern family living. He also heads to Southport, Merseyside, to see a Victorian gothic property in need of attention. Owners Jenny and Fadi are keen to resore the pile to its original splendor.
