Episode 7

The new series continues, as Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer help more homeowners to resolve their dilemmas, rejuvenate their homes and decide whether to stay put or start afresh. In Stevenage, Steven and Adeola desperately need an intervention to resolve their three-year debate. Their detached three-bedroom new-build is bursting at the seams, and a catalogue of issues has left Steven yearning for pastures new. With a lack of storage and a dysfunctional layout - which is exacerbated when family come to stay - patience has finally run out. So much so that Steven has even re-purposed the poorly ventilated ensuite as a walk-in wardrobe! But Adeola refuses to give up on their home. She believes that they need to be brave and tackle the issues head on, rather than giving up on the house that could give them everything they need. One thing they do agree on is that they need Kirstie's help to give them a fighting chance of sorting it out, not least so that Steven can be convinced to remove his clothes from the bathroom! Despite having a £45,000 Love It budget, Kirstie is exasperated with the layout issues and has her work cut out to turn this one around. She takes aim at the garage, but can she win Steven over? Meanwhile, Phil's search is far from plain sailing as he sets out to find a home that delivers on their long list of requirements. Tensions rise as both sides bring their A-game, leaving the decision on a knife's edge. Will Steven and Adeola love their home or list it?
