Anyone seen this on UKTV Style Channel?

Totally amazing how they transfrom an entire house!!

Last night they totally transformed a house where the eldest son had been in a car accident and spent the last two years in a wheel chair and they couldn't afford to get the house converted with ramps, etc so he'd not seen the upstairs of the house for 2 years!!

They totally redid the entire house and even put a lift in for him!!

I saw that. It was really touching.

There has also been a make-over of house belonging to a family with 7 kids where the father died of cancer, and one of a house infected with fungus which was literally fatal for the youngest son.
Some of the stuff they do is really tacky, but some of it is completely out of this world.

There was actually 9 kids but two had moved out, bet they wanted to move back in again!!

Although the show is getting a bit lame with wanting to show the team fighting all the time!!

I wasn't too impressed with tonight's show the house wasn't that bad to begin with.

That one where the son had searched for his father who lived on the streets for years and brought him home was touching, their house was small so the father was sleeping outside for like the last two years in a caravan in the garden :(

And they made a room for the father .. that was sweet. You could see he was pleased to have his own space.
