George Clarke's Old House, New Home - Season 8
Season 8
Episodes
Episode 1
The architect meets Duncan and Josie, who are taking on an 18th-century barn perched on the edge of a pretty green, containing some very dodgy décor including a purple stripped '80s kitchen and a miniature kitchen extension built to house a washing machine. Duncan and Josie need to make it liveable very quickly as they welcome their new baby Ruby, so George sets out to make the dark, cramped layout work for modern family living. He also heads to Southport, Merseyside, to see a Victorian gothic property in need of attention. Owners Jenny and Fadi are keen to resore the pile to its original splendor.
Episode 2
The architect meets art deco fan Ododu, who's downsized to a Victorian terrace in Brighton but is at a loss about how to connect the kitchen to the garden. For inspiration, he visits Eltham Palace, a showstopping example of deco glamour. George also heads to Stockport, Greater Manchester, to help Sarah, who has just inherited the home she grew up in following her mother's death. With a new baby on the way, she's trying to make the 1890s red brick home work for modern family life, while still preserving some of the features that remind her of her mum.
Episode 3
The architect explores an arts and crafts-inspired house in Surrey. Built in the 1920s, it has tall chimneys, leaded windows, gabled ends and a steeply pitched roof. Sadly, it has Artex everywhere and incorporates some dubious design alterations. He sets out to help its owners turn it back into an elegant home for themselves and their three children. George also tackles a suburban home that has so many layers of wallpaper that peeling them back is like going back through a time warp.
Episode 4
George Clarke helps more people make their period homes fit for modern life. On a cobbled street in Cheshire sits a Georgian town house that could be straight out of a Dickens novel. It may look very 18th-century on the outside, but inside George discovers that it's a 1980s horror show, having been stripped of its original features. It does have one unique feature, though - a first-floor conservatory on stilts. Can he find a way of getting its grandeur back? George also has his work cut out tackling a 380-year-old Jacobean cottage.
Episode 5
In the seaside town of Weymouth, Dorset, the presenter helps a couple whose first-time family home was destroyed overnight by a flash flood. When they bought their 19th-century coach house in 2018, they had planned to renovate its higgledy-piggledy layout, but the overnight disaster means they've got a far bigger project than they bargained for. The architect also visits Chiswick, west London, to assist a couple whose master bedroom and bathroom he redesigned a couple of years ago. With a growing family, next on their demolition list is the pokey kitchen.
