looks similar to house doctor if anyone remembers that with Ann Maurice

I used to love that

anyway this is a new programme taking over location x3 spot

brother and sister Scarlett and Stuart Douglas help home owners who are struggling to sell their homes

Stuart says Terry has ‘arthur-itis’. Always nasty, inflammation of the arthur.

I get that but they’ve had so many years

double what the average mortgage is

sad she had to sell

I’m thinking it’s a right to buy property - so many years as a tenant before buying it.

Yes could be

they must have brought it cheaply as up for £130k so sure they paid much less so prob a small mortgage

wonder if they had any kids / did she mention it

shame they couldn’t club together and help her

Ha ha, yes, I laughed at that even though Stuart is one of the most handsome men in TV atm.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/07/2025 20:40

I was about to say wish I knew the price and then said

!500 to wrap worktops if good

that was the bit I liked about house doctor and Ann Maurice

she would list the materials and labour prices

The Kallax seating is a good idea but they were right in front of the radiators. But, they're to get the house sold so...

Sorry, there’s a house? Might have been distracted (Tibby is quite cute too).

Takemybrainaway · 30/07/2025 20:48

What have thr estate agents been doing? Or do the owners just ignore the advice?

Sad for Terry that can’t afford the mortgage and wonder what the original plan was.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/07/2025 20:52

Terris looks lovely - sure it will sell

I would have completely taken out all the evergreens (looked like Leylandii?)

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/07/2025 20:52

Wonder where she will move to

I think trying to be kind to her. They do try to reflect a bit of their personality still in the makeovers.

Blondeshavemorefun · 30/07/2025 20:57

Taking a piece of his soul ?

They are selling /moving so will lose his work shop anyway

Still got a mortgage after 58 years 😮

I had a neighbour like that - London property bought in the 80s which kept going up in price, so she kept extending the interest-free mortgage to live off (she did work, but part time minimum wage). Could never afford any upkeep of the house. Her mum died during Covid and Neighbour sold her London house, cleared the mortgage and moved back north to live in the old family home, god knows what she would have done otherwise - she was past retirement age herself so presumably eventually she’d have been repossessed. I expect there are plenty similar.

the80sweregreat · 31/07/2025 13:06

A friend of mine has a mum in similar circumstances, In her 70s and still has a mortgage and not working.
Painting over wallpaper looks a bit naff, but they managed to do it alright. I guess it’s time and money with this show, but they did steam off the paper in the Newport place.
Wasn’t keen on the window seat, but good for storage.
I like the two presenters and the properties are the same , all in a bit of time warp and so much clutter.
I wonder if any of them do end up selling quickly once it’s all done ?

Blondeshavemorefun · 31/07/2025 13:26

Yes it’s a shame they don’t say - and was sold 6w later

OP posts:
the80sweregreat · 31/07/2025 13:32

Im surprised the estate agents don’t give them some advice , but maybe it would be seen as rude. Or they just think it’s a waste of time if they are moving anyway ? Although they all like it once it’s cleared.

Blondeshavemorefun · 31/07/2025 13:53

Surely everyone knows you declutter if selling

OP posts:
the80sweregreat · 31/07/2025 13:58

Blonds, clearly not going by this show! I can’t understand why , but maybe they haven’t moved for so long their expectations are lower ? Or they can’t see why it needs doing ?
I sometimes think the people on it don’t actually want to move or just cba to do box it up or something like that ? Or maybe told to move it back in order to make the show ? Nothing surprises me with tv shows how they might operate!
It feels like it should be common sense , but it isn’t to them ? I’d love to throw a lot out , but it isn’t time and the inclination to do it and that is hard plus then you have heaps to get rid of or have to hire skips and it’s all faff.

Both houses are awful - but the one with the dolls is more easily fixed, it just needs a clear out. The other house has serious layout issues with the bathroom being accessed through a bedroom, and things like awful fitted wardrobes and platforms with a bed on.

I loved the platform 😄

outofdate · 06/08/2025 20:39

Love the pinky wall colour in the living room. Anyone know how to track it down?

Blondeshavemorefun · 06/08/2025 21:40

Sorry haven’t seen it yet. I’m away. I meant to say e6 on tonight
