Worst House on the Street: Episode 2 (S1EP2 Channel 4 Tuesday 9 August 2022)

First-time buyers Gemma and Scott have bought a house in York that’s not been touched for decades. This is one of Scarlette and Stuart’s biggest ever challenges, as the budget is super tight and the couple want to do up the entire house.

The experts’ suggestions transform the dilapidated shell of a house, as Gemma and Scott knock down the garage in the back, freeing up an incredible garden space, while upstairs, the couple are swayed by the suggestion to lose a bedroom to create a stylish bathroom.

Scarlette also helps them discover some incredible features that were hidden by the previous owners, including Victorian tiles in the hallway which would now cost almost £20,000. After doing most of the work themselves, the breathtaking results of Gemma and Scott’s transformation are revealed.
