Vogue Williams and Luke Mabbott help retired artist Penny in West Sussex. After losing her partner of 20 years, she planned to make a fresh start near her daughter and grandchildren by the seaside. But after she fell for a house that needed a total overhaul, those plans are on hold while the renovation has gone badly over budget and behind schedule. To make Penny's remaining budget go further, Vogue shows her clever ways to achieve the artistic aesthetic she loves without spending a fortune, including helping to create some beautiful cupboard doors with a lozenge-shaped detail, and incorporating an innovative timber terrazzo into an upcycled island. Meanwhile, Luke shows Penny how to tackle DIY tasks including blockwork in the courtyard and creating a garden gate. Can they help Penny finally finish the project so that she can enjoy her retirement by the sea?

Vogue Williams and Luke Mabbott come to the aid of mum and son Fiona and Josh in Worcestershire. Fiona's dream of renovating the family home to make a fresh start after being widowed was left in tatters, after she handed over more than £50,000 to a builder who left the job half finished. She's since learned that much of the work needs re-doing and has £80,000 left to try to salvage the project. But it's not enough to stretch to her original plan. Vogue helps Fiona and Josh rethink the design, showing them a smart alternative scheme to maximise the potential of the space within their budget, and encourages them to incorporate stylish interior design ideas, including a panelled wall with a hidden door, and a quirky bespoke dog bed for the family pet. While Luke teaches them new DIY skills to boost Fiona's self-confidence and empower Josh to follow in his late father's footsteps.
