The Great House Giveaway: Burton-on-Trent (S3EP12 Channel 4 Mon 16 May 2022)
In Burton-on-Trent, complete strangers builder Jack and payroll manager Helen are teamed up to bring a wrecked terrace house into the 21st century. With the news that, in its current state, the house is actually unmortgageable, the dynamic duo get straight to work tackling the downstairs floor.
Taking half the house back to bare is one of the dirtiest, most soul-destroying jobs you can do on a renovation. But that’s just the start of their troubles. As the clock ticks and their budget starts to dwindle, they both begin to struggle with the workload, and it looks like the job will never get finished.

Season 3 Episode 12
In each episode, two strangers who have never met before and have never owned a home before will be given a lump sum to buy a property at auction.
They will then have six months to renovate their purchase into a habitable and desirable home with the hope of selling it on and making a profit, which they will keep, helping them towards their dream of owning their own home one day.
If they don’t sell – the house goes back to auction.
