Season 1:
Colin Webster and Amber Moss are all at sea when it comes to creating their perfect home. The couple's 60s maisonette, near Edinburgh's 'secret beach', should be a groovy pad for this fun loving young couple. Instead it is drowning in oceans of clutter as the pair juggle a new baby, busy lives and a tendency towards panic buying online bargains.
Kirstie Allsopp is looking to the past for inspiration and embracing vintage style to help homeowners desperately in need of help. This time it's Shaun and Jannine Cartwright and their three sons in need of assistance. The family has reached a massive stumbling block when it comes to overhauling their Blackburn home, which is full of clutter, clutter and more clutter. Jannine has recently fought cancer and the family is now struggling to know where to begin in order to create a more homely home.
Kirstie helps Ellie and Nick Harrington, who are desperate to revamp the kitchen and dining room in their new home in Tunbridge Wells. The trouble is that this couple have no practical DIY skills. With Kirstie, they make bespoke pottery for the kitchen and willow placemats for the dining room. They also head out on a salvage-yard search for antique pieces that will cement the vintage style they want and give them the confidence they need to buy second hand in the future.
Kirstie helps Craig Moore and Amy Green with their very vintage wedding preparations. Craig is in the army and is about to head out to Afghanistan, so Kirstie is going to make their big day an affair that will never be forgotten. Kirstie takes inspiration from the Queen's 1947 wedding to give their nuptials all the romance and glamour they desire.
Kirstie helps Cheshire couple Iman and Heather, who have a brand new home and a baby on the way. They'd like a vintage nursery and a 1920s inspired sitting room.
Kirstie is on the Isle of Wight, where she attempts to help single dad Rich Clarke and his two daughters, seven-year-old Daisy-May and five-year-old Amy.
