With wedding season on the horizon, the chateau owners featured in Channel 4’s Chateau DIY are feeling the pressure. This Friday’s episode finds some scrambling to finish renovations, while others embark on new projects, all with the charming backdrop of the French countryside. Adjoa Andoh returns as narrator, her voice guiding us through the triumphs and tribulations of chateau life.
At Château du Puits Es Pratx, the wedding bells are practically ringing. Sasha is in a race to complete her glass work, while Tim struggles to finish his infamous barrel project. Will they make it in time for the big day? Meanwhile, DIY novice Trish, nestled in the foothills of the Pyrenees, takes on a spare bedroom makeover before her guests arrive. It’s a classic case of ambition versus experience, and the results could be either disastrous or delightful.
In the Dordogne region, chef Tim at Château Domaine De Le Barde takes on a different kind of challenge, constructing a custom-made BBQ. He aims to impress France’s culinary community, but will his creation be a sizzler or a fizzle? Chateau DIY continues to celebrate the creativity and resourcefulness of these British expats as they breathe new life into their historic homes. Tune in to Channel 4 this Friday, April 4, at 5:00 PM.
