In the first episode, Lucy and Harry have to bring in a complex build on a tight budget for the Flinter family. Combining the kitchen and dining room in this Victorian three-bed home is the first step in creating one big living space. The family wants a handleless kitchen, some funky flooring and stainless steel work tops. Plus, they are splashing out on an expensive mural that looks like spilt paint. Upstairs, sports-mad son Jack wants a football-themed room. Can Lucy come up with a perfect design and keep the build on budget?

Everything is pink including the bathroom. Can Lucy create the ambitious country-style kitchen Hayley wants, and give son Evan and daughter Ellie a powerful shower that will beat the current one that is no better than 'a trickle of urine'?

Lucy meets a couple after her own heart: Neil and Kerry from Bristol are the king and queen of bargain hunters when it comes to getting great deals on everything from kitchen appliances to end-of-line loos. They even save a fortune on builders by doing it themselves. The couple have left the kitchen and utility rooms till last; can Lucy and Harry help them squeeze every penny to create a quirky modern kitchen with a monumental island? One thing's for sure: the colour yellow is going to be key. Kerry wants yellow walls, a yellow banquette seat and even yellow grouting between the tiles. Will Lucy and Harry be able to help them balance the bright colour whilst balancing the books?

Dorrie and Simon Dowling recently bought a 1930s house on the south coast that features a massive wrap around conservatory, a 12 seater hot tub and a fussy 80s kitchen. Once they have got rid of those it's time to knock down a few walls to create the grey shaker style kitchen-diner they have set their hearts on. With expensive taste but no budget to match, how can Lucy and Harry help them transform the house into the home they want? And will the double-sided log burner send the budget up in smoke?

Bristol newly-weds Georgia and Dan Hemings have saved and scrimped to buy their new three bedroom semi, with hopes of turning it into a family home in the future.

Lucy and Harry's task is to maximise every remaining penny to create a smart, 1930s style sitting room and sumptuous master bedroom.
