It's a heartbreaking situation for the Harrisons, and it's weighing heavily on the family. Their only way out is to turn their daggy, old home from frumpy to fabulous.
Erskineville, NSW
While living overseas, Natasha Bayliss purchased a two-bedroom terrace in Erskineville, without viewing it. Rising damp, crumbling walls and a wreck of a kitchen are just the start of the problems. Now years of neglect have come back to haunt Natasha. She and her husband both lost their jobs and with two children to support, they need to sell the Erskineville terrace, but buyers are taking one look and running in the other direction.
Glendenning, NSW
If there's one thing that helps a sale, it's a great entrance, something Jason and Estella's house is sadly missing. It's also lacking street appeal with only an end gable visible.
Huonbrook, NSW
Akmal and Catie purchased a 7 acre plot with 1 bedroom shack and planned to build their home. The reality, however, was rain, leeches, rats and snakes. With the property now on the market, Andrew now has to negotiate with the council to make it a legal dwelling.
Romsey, VIC
Beth and Andrew inherited his grandmother's house but attempts to renovate were met by family disapproval. Now, their hoarding habits and grandma's style have left them stuck on the market for nine months.
Darwin, NT
Bob has been collecting property he can't afford for years in an effort to help his friends. Now, having lost his job he must sell his '70s penthouse, and while it conjures up images of luxury, the reality is anything but.
Gerringong, NSW
Lesley urgently needs help to sell her dated, dark house with its dungeon-like brick interior. Can Andrew, Charlie and Shaynna transform it into the big beach house buyers expect from this fabulous coastal location?
West Ryde, NSW
We've all dreamed of living the good life: fresh country air and the great outdoors, but how about your own slice of the country in suburban Sydney? Well, that's exactly what Andrew and Erika Coombe set out to achieve. They bought their overgrown bush block, complete with a rambling country-style home 10 years ago in smart, suburban West Ryde and have cherished its rustic charm. But now with two young boys and one on the way, the Coombes want to make a move to the country full-time.
Unfortunately, your average Sydney buyer doesn't share their love of all things overgrown and if they are brave enough to fight through the garden to the house, they're greeted with a 1950s time warp, dark wood panelling and cluttered rooms. It's enough to send any buyer running, and that's before they've seen the price tag - almost a million dollars.

Amandaland
Following three series of the Merman-produced, BAFTA award-winning series Motherland, a brand-new spin-off, Amandaland, is coming to the BBC, focused on Amanda.
Post her divorce, Amanda has had to downsize and up sticks to South Harlesden, or as the Estate Agent calls it SoHa (definitely not the area around Wormwood Scrubs prison).
With both Manus and Georgie now at secondary school, Amanda has to try and get her head around raising teenagers, dealing with modern motherhood horrors like teenage drinking, fake Instagram accounts and eco anxiety. Not even a woman as certain of her parenting as Amanda can deal with these nightmares alone.
Then there's Amanda's mother Felicity who is constantly around, and completely in denial that she is, in fact, lonely. Theirs is a slightly unhealthy co-dependent relationship based on backhanded compliments and veiled snipes about her new home.
After a brief spell of freedom, Anne is sucked back into being Amanda's minion to help her navigate the social scene with the other parents at the children's new school. Thank God for Anne.
Doc
Doc centers on the hard-charging, brilliant Dr. Amy Larsen, Chief of Internal and Family Medicine at Westside Hospital in Minneapolis. After a brain injury erases the last eight years of her life, Amy must navigate an unfamiliar world where she has no recollection of patients she's treated, colleagues she's crossed, the soulmate she divorced, the man she now loves and the tragedy that caused her to push everyone away. She can rely only on her estranged 17-year-old daughter, whom she remembers as a 9-year-old, and a handful of devoted friends, as she struggles to continue practicing medicine, despite having lost nearly a decade of knowledge and experience.
Saturday Night Live
Saturday Night Live is an Emmy Award-winning late-night comedy showcase.
Since its inception in 1975, "SNL" has launched the careers of many of the brightest comedy performers of their generation. As The New York Times noted on the occasion of the show's Emmy-winning 25th Anniversary special in 1999, "in defiance of both time and show business convention, 'SNL' is still the most pervasive influence on the art of comedy in contemporary culture." At the close of the century, "Saturday Night Live" placed seventh on Entertainment Weekly's list of the Top 100 Entertainers of the past fifty years.
Have I Got News for You
Based on the week's news, Have I Got News for You is fronted by guest hosts and features two regular team captains, Paul Merton and Ian Hislop. Each week the show invites two guests to cast a jaundiced eye over the week's news, resulting in a fast flow of anarchic, spontaneous and hugely entertaining wit and humour. Guests typically represent the world of politics, comedy, show-business and journalism, and are often themselves particularly newsworthy participants. The final touches of Have I Got News for You are put together only hours before recording, allowing guests to comment on the late-breaking news stories of the day.
