George Clarke's Remarkable Renovations - Episode Guide

First up are Cornwall couple Richard and Sarah, who bought their former local high street bank for £50,000 and now face the challenge of converting the Victorian grade II-listed building into a unique family home.

George meets a Staffordshire couple who, having fallen in love with a derelict 19th-century coach house, sold their home and put in their savings to buy it. How will they cope cooped up in a caravan on-site with the children while they oversee the renovation?

George is in West Yorkshire to check out a building with a criminal past - a former police station - which comes complete with original holding cells and a 1980s reception area. Rachel, who runs her own fashion business, is determined to do most of the work herself. Fortunately, her boyfriend Mike is a builder. Will they be able to transform it into a spectacular home?

Architect George Clarke George meets first-time renovators Erin and Oliver, who have spent their inheritance on a dilapidated dung-filled barn outside Harrogate, North Yorkshire. The newlyweds' dream is to turn the 200-year-old building into a stunning country home that Erin's late father would be proud of. But to do it, they will need to overcome the infamous Yorkshire elements.

Architect George Clarke George visits Three Ways Farm near Stockport, which has been in Gordon's family since the 1950s. His late mother's dream was for Gordon to turn the 120-year-old cattle shed and milking parlour into a home for himself, so he and partner Lisa have set out to make that a reality, creating their first home together. Will it end up being something his mother would have been proud of?

George meets Bernie, whose daughter and son-in-law saw the potential in a ramshackle stable at the end of their garden for the perfect retirement retreat

Architect George Clarke follows people as they breathe new life into old commercial properties. He begins in the Suffolk town of Framlingham, where pig farmer Paul and his wife Imogen have snapped up a collection of run-down and abandoned buildings, including a pub, butcher's shop, bakery and a slaughterhouse, with ambitious plans to restore the Grade II listed site and add a modern glass exterior.

George meets young couple Abi and Morveth, who have sunk their life savings into a disused electrical substation tower in Cornwall. Built on a hilltop in 1910, it was nothing more than a shell, having been left abandoned and exposed to the elements for 70 years. But after two and a half years, two extensions, an extra floor and hundreds of hours of work, the result is a unique home for the newlyweds.

George meets James, who has bought a former glassworks in Brighton and decided to painstakingly restore the whole property, down to the very last detail. With £500,000 to spend, it should be easy - but as George soon discovers, James never does things the easy way. Will his uncompromising vision live up to his high expectations?

George meets Peter and Julia, who had run their local Post Office and lived in the building above it for the last 20 years. Despite being forced to close the doors to the business, they felt such a connection with the building that they couldn't bear to sell it. But as soon as work began on the conversion, they discovered a crumbling wreck, falling apart at the seams.

George meets Stuart and Theresa, who were looking to downsize ready for retirement until they saw a huge and cavernous village hall for sale. Bigger than they bargained for, it was an opportunity too good to pass up. With 40 years in the building trade, Stuart and Theresa, with help from son Jamie, set about turning it into their home.

George kicks off a new series by paying a visit to solicitor Dawn, who is embarking on a mammoth renovation of her local village shop in Yorkshire, in a bid to turn it into a home for her and her two sons. But with a six-month deadline, no renovating experience and ambitious plans, including turning a storage room into an outdoor oasis, will her on paper plans work in the real world?

George meets Yohance, who has bought an office unit on a commercial estate in London, which he plans to turn into a two-bedroom house. At £360,000 it was half the price of residential equivalents nearby, but it's a cavernous, sterile and dark space, so the odds are stacked against him and his conversion. Is it even possible to make it the stylish and comfortable first home he wants?

George meets Matt, who bought a Victorian terrace in Laceby with a derelict bakery in the back garden. Most people would have knocked it down or used it for storage but not Matt. He hatched a plan to convert it into a home for his sister Charlene and nephew Louis. A home on one level would be life-changing for them, but the renovation isn't easy, as Matt wants to work to a tight £50k budget and do most of the work himself.

Rollo and Olivia have decided to swap city life for the rolling Chiltern Hills, snapping up an old barber's shop and its 17th-century attached building in Amersham. Run as a business for over 100 years, the Grade II listed hairdressers is in a state of serious disrepair. Their plan to convert the loft and create a modern open-plan ground floor is perfect for modern family living, but it's a risk in a building that's over 300 years old.

Marcus and Kathryn have lived in the same house for nearly 20 years and raised their three children there, but Marcus has always dreamt of renovating his parents' railway goods shed. When developers bought the land surrounding the building from his parents, he knew it was now or never.

In Wales, George meets Tim and Kirsti, who are embarking on a renovation to create a new home for their blended family. Tim's two children recently moved over from South Africa, making their current rental tight on space, so they needed to upsize and quickly. The high-street-shop-turned-accountants'-office offered the five bedrooms they needed for a price they could afford. However, it lacks a family kitchen as well as connection to the garden, so they need to build a modern extension. But the building was built in 1725, is listed and is in a conservation area, which doesn't make things simple.

Project manager Sam and plasterer Jimmy have sold both their houses and poured their life savings into the renovation of a Victorian pie factory they bought for £160,000. George Clarke follows their progress as the pair put their trade expertise to the test.
