Luxury Mobile, Retro Caravanette & South Andalucía
In the first episode, George travels to Suffolk to meet Simon, who wants to thank his mum by converting a railway cattle carriage into a luxury mobile holiday home fit for a queen. George meets Claire in east London who, having bought her dream vintage Morris Minor Caravanette, discovers that it's rotten to the core. Can Claire rebuild this stunning one-of-a-kind slice of 60s retro chic? George begins a 3000-mile road trip across Spain, featuring breath-taking landscapes, bold engineering and inspiring design. In southern AndalucÃ-a, a picture-perfect tiny home, built single-handedly by British born Elizabeth Wynn, sits in the epic mountain range of the Sierra de Las Nieves. And back in the UK, George and master craftsman Will Hardie begin their own amazing project, as they transform the rusty shell of a 1970s builders van into an expanding luxury camper.

Silver Streak & Writing Den
George travels to Cornwall to meet Rebecca and Damian. The young couple are trading in their house for a debt free life in a cool luxury American trailer known as a Silver Streak. But with just ?ú10k to finish the job, can they transform this trailer from trash to vintage treasure? In Newquay, George meets inspirational 67-year-old ex-cabbie Caroline, who is single-handedly building a writing den in her back garden on a budget of just ?ú800 - created out of other people's cast-offs upcycled from the local dump. George's quest for the hidden architectural wonders of Spain continues in the breathtaking desert lands of Andalusia, where he discovers a stunning retreat. And George and master-craftsman Will Hardie are inspired by a state-of-the-art luxury mobile home, as they get to grips with their own big build.

Narrow Boat & Prosecco Bar
A teenager in Lancashire turns a derelict narrow boat into a holiday home for the family. In Warwickshire, could a greasy burger van be the answer to a bride-to-be's prayers?

Trailer, Helicopter & Water Tower
In West Sussex young couple Becky and Joe plan to build their first home together: a tiny house on an old trailer, enabling them to live debt-free.

Gin Bar, Cathedral & Narrowboat
George travels to North Yorkshire to meet couple Paul and Rachel, who hope to combine a mutual love of railways and gin by transforming an old goods wagon into a summerhouse and gin bar. In a small town near Madrid, George meets the man who has spent the last 50 years building a cathedral of epic proportions by hand. There's also a narrowboat conversion in Buckinghamshire, and work continues on George and Will's expandable caravan pod.

Camping Trailer & Mobile Classroom
In this episode, George meets Mark - a vintage car nut from Coventry. With the help of his petrolhead daughters, Mark plans to build a super-cool camping trailer from an old Saab so they can travel to Le Mans in style. George is also back on home turf in the North East, where inspirational teacher Busola plans to create a cutting-edge mobile classroom out of a double-decker bus. George's Spanish design odyssey continues as he visits an incredible hundred-year-old farmhouse on the coast of Asturias, which has been given an extraordinary 21st-century facelift. And back at the big build, the team at Studio Hardie are hard at work designing a lightweight, flexible and multi-functional wall system for the campervan living pod, while Stu and George give the ancient Ford Transit chassis a slick, retro makeover.

German Fire Engine, Fly-tipping Site & Cantilever House
George travels to Yorkshire, to meet twenty-somethings Jasmine and Rupert, who plan to convert an old German fire truck into a cabin on wheels to take around Europe, satisfying what they call 'a quarter-life crisis'. George also takes a trip to Warrington to meet inspirational businessman Phil, who's spent thousands out of his own pocket transforming an old fly-tipping site into a stunning nature reserve, and now wants to build a community classroom so local schools can enjoy the site. The penultimate leg of George's tour of innovative Spanish architecture takes him to the sun-baked South East, where a cutting edge cantilever house has to be seen to be believed. And it's all hands on deck at the big build, when the team faces the nail-biting challenge of bringing the reconditioned Ford Transit chassis and new expandable living pod together for the very first time. But will it all go according to plan?

Chill-Out Den, Sphere, Hastings
In the final episode of the series, George heads to the south coast to meet a father and son duo who plan to convert an oil rig escape boat into a floating holiday home. But without fixed plans will they sink or swim? George also visits Cornwall, to see a one-of-a-kind rooftop chill-out den, the brainchild of madcap inventor Brad, who'd set his sights on creating the perfect sphere. In Spain, George rounds off his tour of revolutionary small space design with a trip to an ingenious studio apartment by the sea with rotating internal walls. And it's the big day for the team's expandable camper, as George and Will take her to the coast for a maiden voyage at the grand opening on Hastings Pier.
