The Great House Revival returns to BBC Two on Thursday, 12 June at 7:00 PM, and this time the dream is as big as the budget is tight. Artist Cora has a vision: transform a crumbling townhouse into a combined living space and studio. But anyone who’s ever taken on a renovation knows that vision rarely accounts for load-bearing walls, leaky roofs, or the sudden disappearance of contractors.
The episode maps out Cora’s attempt to balance artistic ambition with the harsh realities of property ownership. The townhouse is a wreck, and the funds are even more precarious. The question isn’t just whether she can create a home, but whether she can create a habitable one.
Will Cora’s creativity prevail, or will the mounting costs and construction chaos crush her dreams? Thursday’s episode brings the pressure cooker to a boil.
The Great House Revival airs Thursday at 7:00 PM on BBC Two.
