The Best TV Shows For Interiors Lovers
Amanda & Alan’s Italian Job (Plus Spinoffs)
One man. One woman. One massive DIY project. TV personalities Alan Carr and Amanda Holden have spent the last few years working on a string of impressive interiors transformations overseas, with their most recent project taking them to the home of the Durrell’s in Corfu. But it’s best to start at the begging with Amanda & Alan’s Italian Job. As part of a scheme run by the Italian government which aims to draw people back into rural villages, Holden and Carr originally bought two dilapidated flats for only €1 each – and set about transforming them into a single spectacular home. (If you’re eager to see the results, take a peek inside the Sicilian apartment, the Spanish townhouse and the Greek holiday home from the series.)

Interior Design Masters
And if you want more Alan Carr, you’re in luck. Britain’s favourite chatty man also hosts Interior Design Masters, the BBC’s home-focused answer to Bake Off. The show sees 10 budding designers compete for a chance to win a high-end commercial contract, officially kick-starting their careers in the world of interiors. Along the way, they’ll have to impress judge and former Elle Decoration editor in chief, Michelle Ogundehin, as well as a string of guest judges spanning Mary Portas, Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, Matthew Williamson, Sophie Robinson and more.

Saving Country Houses With Penelope Keith
Britain’s crowning glory? Its collection of country homes and gardens. Packed with centuries of history, these buildings are powerhouses of social intrigue – but it takes a lot to keep them going. In Saving Country Houses With Penelope Keith, the beloved British actress follows the passionate owners of Britain’s country houses (from family castles and Cotswolds manors to the home of the gunpowder plot) to see what they do to keep their historic homes in one piece.
The Great Pottery Throwdown
Another Bake Off style showdown – but this time, it’s more clay than cakes. The Great Pottery Throwdown sees a group of amateur potters take to the wheel for a chance to win the coveted title of Britain’s best potter. But it’s a tough trek to the top; they’ll need to complete a series of tasks and challenges each week to impress the judges – master potter Keith Brymer Jones and award-winning ceramicist Rich Miller – and avoid being sent home. (And with Siobhán McSweeney sat in the host’s seat, you’re guaranteed numerous bites of comedy scattered throughout.)

Our Welsh Chapel Dream
It’s not just pottery that rules Keith’s life. The famed ceramic designer also has a passion for general DIY – as shown in Our Welsh Chapel Dream, where he and wife Marj Hogarth tackle the mammoth task of converting a Grade II listed chapel in Wales into a forever home. Expect laughs, challenges, tears (it is Keith, after all) and some seriously stunning results.
Tidying Up With Marie Kondo
Since it first appeared on Netflix in 2018, the nation has been swept with Marie Kondo mania. Even if you haven’t yet watched it, you’ve probably found yourself pondering Kondo’s signature question during the obligatory lockdown clear out: does it spark joy? To get some inspiration for your spring declutter, check out Kondo’s brilliant tips on what to keep and let go of in a clear out, and how to arrange your space for a happier, more peaceful environment.

Get Organised With The Home Edit
And if the roaring success of Tidying Up With Marie Kondo taught us anything, it’s that we can’t get enough of home organisation. Enter Get Organised With The Home Edit, hosted by storage gurus Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin. As they tidy up the cupboards and draws of A-listers like Reese Witherspoon and Eva Longoria, you’ll learn how to re-arrange your office documents, streamline your wardrobes and make your bookshelf look like something straight off Pinterest.

Think roller coasters and apocalypse bunkers, functioning sci-fi museums and medieval dining rooms. Lifting the lid on the world of quirky home passion projects, no unusual whimsy or left field idea is out of bounds here.
