Prepare for a dose of reality TV charm mixed with property renovation as Scarlett Moffatt, the former “Gogglebox” star, joins Martin Roberts for a celebrity special of “Homes Under the Hammer.” Moffatt isn’t just there for a casual stroll through a fixer-upper; she’s diving headfirst into the world of dilapidated houses and ambitious renovation dreams.
This episode takes us to Sunderland, where a property sparks genuine excitement in both Moffatt and Roberts –– a refreshing change from the usual polite, presenter-ly enthusiasm. Could this be the diamond in the rough that launches Moffatt’s property empire? Or will it be another cautionary tale of overspending and underestimated repairs?
Plus, “Homes Under the Hammer” revisits a property from its 2007 archives: a London studio flat. Given the current property climate, revisiting this flat will either be a shocking reminder of how affordable London living used to be, or evidence that property values will always recover eventually. Either way, one thing’s clear: it offers a unique peek into the ever-fluctuating real estate landscape.
Meanwhile, back in the present, Jacqui in Surrey battles problematic patio doors. While less glamorous than celebrity cameos and London flashbacks, it’s the bread and butter of “Homes Under the Hammer” – and a welcome slice of relatable renovation struggles.
