Building the Dream - Season 10

Charlie Luxton helps more people as they build affordable dream homes. He begins in Hertfordshire with retired firefighter Bob and his wife Wendy, who spent years looking for the perfect building plot - until they found it in their back garden. They want somewhere to play music, paint and write, but they soon find themselves facing an ever-expanding budget to finish the house.

Charlie Luxton is in Surrey with Chris and Gemma, who are aiming to build an Arts and Crafts-inspired home of grand proportions. But their determination to do most of the work themselves while juggling a family means progress grinds to a halt.

Charlie Luxton is in Hampshire with Ryan and Jenny, who are hoping to bring a derelict barn back from the brink. But keeping the rickety shell upright is easier said than done, pushing project manager Ryan to the limit as he juggles his day job with running the build - and to make matters worse, self-confessed townie Jenny is not sure how she will cope in the country.

Charlie Luxton is in rural Somerset, where Tom and Laura are building a home on Tom's family's farm - a dream he has had since childhood. But despite years of planning, Charlie discovers a slight issue with the couple's plans - they don't have any.

Charlie's in picturesque St Andrews with Olwen and Ben, whose daring self-build of something new in the oldest part of town is beset by a growing budget... and a growing family!
