In West Sussex, three homeowners snoop round each other's houses, to eye up the competition and get some ideas how to improve their own homes. Amanda gives them expert advice, and £1000, to make changes in the hope of securing an offer from buyer Mark who, with help of mum Julia, is looking to buy his first home. Pat has her work cut out transforming her home office into a cosy living space. James and Helen need to add some colour to their neutral home. And Sue and Tony need to reinstate their downstairs bedroom and ditch the knick-knacks.
