Home Rescue: The Big Fix - Season 1
Season 1
Desperate Houses
Episodes
Tallaght
Róisín and the Desperate Houses crew spend three days with Annette from Tallaght, helping her rescue two hopelessly cluttered bedrooms. With the help of builder Peter Finn and his crew, Róisín sets out to completely redesign the unruly top floor of the house, creating a luxury hotel style bedroom for Annette and a treatment room to help her reconnect with her skills as a Reiki master.
Raheny
Róisín and the Desperate Houses crew come to the rescue of Glenda, Maurice and their four kids in Raheny, Co. Dublin. At first, the house seems far from desperate, but it soon becomes clear that this otherwise pristine family home hides rooms so filled with clutter, they've become no-go area.
Portlaoise
Róisín and the Desperate Houses crew join Wendy (37) Daniel (37) and their two kids Jun-Li (9) and Mae-Li (18 months) at their small two bed house in Portlaoise, Co. Laois. For ‘house', read ‘storage facility', because ever since Wendy moved the contents of her former hair salon into the kitchen, there's no room to move!
Resolving to ‘perform surgery' on the layout, Róisín hatches an ambitious plan to reclaim the ensuite and turn a two-bed house into a three-bed home.
Clonmel
Róisín Murphy and the Desperate Houses crew join Bridget and Jack at their home in Clonmel, Co. Tipperary – a former B&B that's so crammed with clutter, there's barely room for the owners, let alone any guests!
Hemmed in by a huge legacy of bulky furniture, linen and crockery from the days of the guesthouse, Bridget and Jack are too busy bickering over the small kitchen table to enjoy their well-deserved retirement.
Leixlip
Róisín Murphy and the Desperate Houses crew join Vivenne, Ger and their five young kids at their mid-terrace 3-bedroom house in Leixlip, County Kildare.
Faced with her most challenging redesign yet, Roisin suggests a roof light in the kitchen to illuminate the dark and dreary living room. With such a small space to design for and with so many functional demands, the new kitchen layout is not solved until the last hours of the makeover.
Donegal
Donegal. Vast, unspoiled, largely empty. But not this house. The person who lives here shares her space with a collection of clothes, furniture and bric-a-brac that's growing by the day because she can't say no to a bargain. Meet Margaret.
Architect and designer Róisín Murphy along with her team are going to help Margaret declutter the items that she no longer needs and give her the space that she craves – her very own sanctuary in her bedroom and a much-needed sitting room for her and her many visitors to enjoy.

Dept. Q
DCI Carl Morck is a brilliant cop but a terrible colleague. His razor-sharp sarcasm has made him no friends in Edinburgh police. After a shooting that leaves a young PC dead, and his partner paralysed, he finds himself exiled to the basement and the sole member of Department Q; a newly formed cold case unit. The department is a PR stunt, there to distract the public from the failures of an under-resourced, failing police force that is glad to see the back of him. But more by accident than design, Carl starts to build a gang of waifs and strays who have everything to prove. So, when the stone-cold trail of a prominent civil servant who disappeared several years ago starts to heat up, Carl is back doing what he does best - rattling cages and refusing to take no for an answer.
