00:00I had the great idea of maybe we should throw a party.
00:09It would be nice to get everyone to come over and celebrate with us once the house is finished.
00:17I'm currently in hospital waiting for the prognosis.
00:19A double break in the leg is extremely serious.
00:25My dad has come over for a working holiday.
00:30Chaz has definitely pulled it out of the bag.
00:34Shall we?
00:38It is so cool.
00:44That inflammation is not good.
00:47Not just the normal swelling that you would expect from a broken leg.
00:52The tiles have just arrived and they don't look the right colour to me.
01:01You're just cutting the snail bottom off, I'm afraid.
01:04Being in a vegan house, you can't be chopping off the animal's heads.
01:08Can I go in?
01:11Let's go in and I can't wait to see what you think.
01:15Oh!
01:19I love it.
01:21I want to swap bedrooms with that.
01:23It's been seven weeks since John's accident.
01:35And he's now able to move around a bit more.
01:38While builder Carlos hasn't been well, he and his team have been doing little bits in the family bathroom.
01:47And having done a great job in Albion's bedroom, Jasmine's dad, Peter, is now cracking on with joys.
01:53Despite the hiatus John's leg break has caused, it's time to face the challenge and get this build back on track.
02:03We've had some serious delays.
02:06And I think it really jeopardises the chances of us having everything finished by this summer.
02:13Because at the moment we are hugely behind schedule.
02:18I was going to bring them a bit of chocolate eclair, but I can't actually carry them either.
02:46I'll carry it.
02:48John's leg is doing really well.
02:51I mean, it's still quite swollen, but he's able to get around much more.
02:58You know, he's not confined to the bed anymore, which is actually a big, big thing for him.
03:06You have to keep the workmen happy.
03:10Keep the troops fed.
03:12It's so nice now that he can get up and get into the kitchen again.
03:16Because I've definitely missed his cooking.
03:19Being that I can't actually get upstairs to do any work with Jaz's dad, the least I can do is make him a sandwich while I'm hobbling on my crutches.
03:29That's true.
03:29Ridiculous dog.
03:34You know, a lot of love goes into John's cooking, and he's also a very visual person, so he always has beautiful presentation.
03:43It's a cheese and cucumber sandwich for Jaz's dad.
03:47You can take the decorator out of England, but you can't take England out of the decorator.
03:52Thank you very much.
03:53There you go.
03:55Refueled and refreshed, it's back to work.
03:58This is Joy's room, and the paper is going on this wall behind me.
04:07Of course, we've got the problem of the air conditioning, which is kaput anyway.
04:11I've got it this far off the wall.
04:12It's not connected to any electric, you'll be glad to know.
04:15But now I've found a metal pipe inside there, which has got to be cut or something, because otherwise it's never going to come off the wall.
04:21I'm not familiar with these things.
04:23We don't need them.
04:25It's too cold where we are to have an air con.
04:28Is that any good?
04:29I hope it's done, though.
04:32God, it is all a mess, isn't it?
04:35Have a look.
04:37Do you want me to hold on to it so it doesn't drop down?
04:42That's Joy's bedroom in safe hands.
04:44When John first broke his leg playing paddle, doctors advised eight weeks of bed rest.
04:56Now, with that milestone in sight, he and Jasmine are heading to the hospital for a checkup.
05:02The leg at this point, I think, feels much better than I thought it would.
05:06So I'm hoping the specialist tells me everything's on track.
05:10I think if the consultation doesn't go to plan, I'll be super disappointed.
05:13I think seven weeks in, I'm desperate to be of more use to jazz and to the kids and the renovation.
05:20Hola.
05:21How are you?
05:22How do you feel?
05:23Good, how are you?
05:25I am almost certain that the doctor's going to say he's made amazing progress, because I can just see it in the way he's able to move and get around.
05:33So, fingers crossed, he'll be back on track, because, to be honest with you, I need his help.
05:41I've been struggling to keep my head above water, keeping, you know, with work, with looking after the kids, with the pets, with the renovation.
05:52You have a lot of inflammation here, okay?
05:56What happened that morning?
05:58What happened this morning?
05:59Yes.
05:59When you wake up, the inflammation is in your leg, no?
06:04No.
06:05No.
06:05Yesterday and Saturday, I did quite a lot of walking.
06:10Ah, okay.
06:11Because it's important in rest, when appear the inflammation in your leg, okay?
06:17Ah, okay.
06:18Put your leg in up, okay?
06:21And move your ankle, okay?
06:23Right.
06:24Because that inflammation is not good.
06:27Ah, it's not good.
06:28Okay?
06:28Lay down.
06:29Lay down a minute.
06:31I'll give you an echography, okay?
06:34Because it's probably, with that kind of inflammation, you have a thrombosis, okay?
06:41Okay.
06:42He thinks it might be something like thrombosis or a blood clot somewhere, not just the normal swelling that you would expect from a broken leg.
06:52Obviously, a blood clot is quite dangerous, because if it moves and it goes into your lung or it goes somewhere else, then obviously it could be fatal.
07:04Put the leg in up, okay?
07:05And move your ankle, okay?
07:08And you only down your leg to come here, okay?
07:14Oh, until I see you again.
07:16Yes.
07:16Yes, yes, yes.
07:17Okay?
07:17Okay, gracias.
07:19De nada.
07:19Adios.
07:20So, the bad news is the doctor's orders for the next few days is I need to elevate my leg and go back on the bed until later in the week.
07:30I think he's been overdoing it a bit, haven't you?
07:33Yeah, I think maybe I've been too eager to get back on my feet and to get back at helping around the house.
07:38Yeah, I think I'm going to just have to be a bit more patient.
07:41I mean, neither of us are very patient people, are we?
07:44And you're not one to sit down, I think in the 21 years that we've been together, I've never seen you sit down for longer than about five seconds.
07:53So, for John, this is, you know, very hard and very weird and I'm not surprised that you've, you know, you've kind of...
08:02Been overdoing it.
08:02Been overdoing it.
08:04You're going to have to be a bit more patient.
08:05Fully renovation bit yet.
08:09You're the one that needs renovating.
08:13Luckily, your dad's here.
08:15Yeah, thank goodness.
08:16Although he doesn't...
08:17There's one man in my life I can rely on.
08:19Although he's the person I've been running around after, making him tea and breakfast and dinner.
08:26That's John out of action for at least another couple of days until he can go back to the hospital for an ultrasound to confirm whether he does indeed have thrombosis or not.
08:39I'm so sorry.
08:40Yeah, first of all, if you don't mind.
08:42But there's nothing like a long-awaited delivery to Ray's spirit.
08:46All the bits and pieces we've been ordering for the bathroom upstairs are arriving.
08:52Where's my top?
08:55Yeah, they're different to what I was expecting.
08:58There's still none.
09:00The tiles have just arrived and they don't look the right colour to me.
09:08I mean, they're nice.
09:09They're fine.
09:11They're just not the colour I was expecting.
09:13Well, that'll be annoying, won't it?
09:16Is there a wrong one?
09:16No, I'll speak to Andrew.
09:18We'll bring them in for now.
09:19Yeah, bring them in.
09:20Make sure that they're right.
09:22If needs be, we can get them quickly anyway.
09:25Because basically...
09:25But you see from that picture...
09:27Yeah, no, it does look a lot more green.
09:29We saw a kind of bluey-green tile in the shop that looked really nice.
09:34And I said, oh, have you got this in more of a green?
09:36So we looked and we ordered this in more of a green.
09:38This, to me, still looks like a bluey-green.
09:40I kind of was imagining a warmer green that would look nice with the wood and the gold.
09:47Kind of more like a natural green, like a leafy sort of green.
09:54Yeah, so these are definitely the ones, yeah?
09:56OK.
09:58Yeah, yeah, no, it does.
09:59The ones that he showed me in the catalogue, he didn't have a sample.
10:02Yeah, no, I'll send you a picture now.
10:04OK, see you there. Bye-bye.
10:06You can't trust what you see in a picture or in a catalogue.
10:10You need to see it.
10:11You need to hold it and touch it and see it with your own eyes, in the flesh.
10:15Whatever it might be, it doesn't have to be tiles, it could be absolutely anything.
10:19You need to see it in the flesh and then you can decide.
10:24Upstairs, with the air-con unit now removed,
10:27Peter's got another amazing wall covering going up in Joy's bedroom.
10:31Joy chose this lovely sort of jungle-looking paper,
10:35because she likes all the animals on there.
10:37I'm just a bit worried that I might have to chop the head off an animal
10:40or something like that.
10:41I'm also afraid that the elephant might be behind the bed
10:46and you're not being able to see the elephant on the wall, you know.
10:51So, obviously, you don't buy elephant wallpaper and then put a bed over it.
10:56And after her experience in Albion's bedroom,
10:59Jasmine is continuing her apprenticeship in the family trade.
11:02So, that matches with that, we know.
11:05So, does this one match with the one underneath it?
11:08Like, we've pulled the two of them across, Jess.
11:10Hang on.
11:11See, we've got a match there.
11:13There.
11:13Yeah?
11:13Yeah.
11:14And this is the top all the time, so that's got to be up there first.
11:18But, yeah, it was a bit complicated for my little brain.
11:24The bananas...
11:27Wait, let's see.
11:28So, yeah, if we turn this one round, we're going to match the other.
11:31No, but I think we might have to turn them all around.
11:33Let me just quickly look at the picture.
11:35Having my dad here is an absolute godsend.
11:38He knows what he's doing.
11:39He'll always make the right decision.
11:42And this is our first piece to go on.
11:43With the sheets now in the correct order,
11:47a starting point picked and the wall's already sanded and prepped,
11:50it's time for the paste.
11:52And then, the first sheet of paper.
11:55So, that's all the right way up and everything.
11:59It goes on here.
12:01Two inches at the top.
12:06So, that's our first piece.
12:08It's very striking, and it definitely has the rainforest theme that she wanted.
12:16The biggest problem here is this, this, uh...
12:21This here.
12:21Yeah.
12:22Do you want me to hold these wires out of the way a bit?
12:25If you can, yeah.
12:26Yeah.
12:26Just need to know where they...
12:29Where they are.
12:30There they are.
12:30There.
12:32Okay.
12:32Yeah, it's a fiddly old thing, but...
12:36Yeah.
12:38There you go.
12:38You can just keep being careful.
12:41But the good news is that the sloth's face is...
12:44It's okay.
12:45The stupid things that you end up getting worried and stressed about,
12:50you know.
12:52But I just kept thinking,
12:54oh, my God, she's going to be so upset.
12:56Yeah.
12:57The sloth's got a light coming out of the middle of its face.
13:12I just kept cutting the snail's bottom off.
13:15I mean, that's the thing, you know,
13:18being in a vegetarian and vegan house,
13:21you can't be chopping off the animal's heads.
13:23No.
13:24Oh, thanks, Dad.
13:26It looks great.
13:27You know, it is quite handy having a grandad
13:31who's so good at decorating
13:33because it means that they've been able to have their rooms
13:37looking so fantastic.
13:39I'm sure she's going to love it.
13:40Down on the Costa del Sol,
13:53it's now been eight weeks since John broke his leg.
13:56And after a less-than-positive check-up with the doctor,
13:59he's been back for a follow-up scan.
14:02Apparently I have thrombosis,
14:03so basically a blood clot in my leg.
14:05So I was hoping I would be up on my feet
14:09helping decorate,
14:12helping renovate,
14:13helping Jazz,
14:14but the doctor's orders are
14:16I have to keep my leg up for another week.
14:19So I'm back on the sofa,
14:21leg up,
14:24Jazz's dad
14:25decorating without my help.
14:29Anyway,
14:30onwards and upwards.
14:32Let's hope it gets better in a week or so.
14:34It could have been worse, right?
14:36And I have to be grateful
14:37and consider myself lucky
14:39that it was nothing worse.
14:41But still, it just doesn't seem fair.
14:43He's got new medication
14:45for the thrombosis.
14:49I think he was trying to run before he could walk
14:51and probably overdoing it a little bit.
14:54This is another setback
14:57Jasmine and John can ill afford.
15:00But keen to keep John's spirits lifted
15:03as well as entertain the kids,
15:05Jasmine has an idea.
15:10Someone I met when I first moved here
15:12called Gabriella.
15:13She's a vegan chef
15:15and she runs a bakery in Estepona
15:17and she invited us to come down
15:19and cook some desserts with her.
15:21And what's nice is at the end of it,
15:23we can take some sweet treats back to John.
15:30Hi, Gabriella.
15:32Hi, how are you?
15:33Welcome.
15:35How are you guys?
15:37Are you ready to make some cinnamon rolls?
15:39Cinnamon.
15:39Cinnamon rolls.
15:41Albie, what do you think of that?
15:43Yummy.
15:44Yummy.
15:45Come on, let's go.
15:46That's Joy's favourite.
15:47Come on.
15:47I was quite pleasantly surprised
15:50by how easy it is
15:53to be plant-based
15:55and vegan
15:56here in Spain.
15:58In the supermarkets
15:59there are plenty of options.
16:01There are online groups
16:03where people share different information.
16:05There's a vegan food truck
16:06that goes around.
16:07There's a market.
16:09Plenty of restaurants
16:10with vegan
16:11and plant-based options.
16:13So, guys,
16:15the ingredients
16:16we have here
16:17soy milk,
16:19mixture of sugar,
16:20yeast,
16:21vegan butter,
16:23vanilla
16:23and here we have a flour.
16:25We have
16:26here a mixture of cinnamon
16:28with sugar
16:29and walnuts.
16:32I'm going to say
16:33this looks like
16:34it's going to be delicious.
16:36There's so many ingredients.
16:37There you go.
16:45Fantastic.
16:45It's like a puff of fluff.
16:47Now,
16:48you can take this yeast,
16:50see,
16:50and you just crumble it like this.
16:52I've never seen this before.
16:54I prefer this one
16:55because it's giving more structure.
16:57We're getting all the secrets now,
16:59all the inside secrets.
17:02Every day's a school day.
17:04I love it.
17:07It smells delicious.
17:10It hasn't even started
17:11cooking yet.
17:12It's so fast.
17:13I love the smell of fresh.
17:16It's really,
17:17really nice
17:18to be able to do something
17:19like this with Joy and Albee.
17:20It's not something
17:21that I would probably do
17:23at home with them
17:24because my baking skills
17:25are useless.
17:27Mummy,
17:27have a little go, please.
17:29Yeah,
17:29let mum have a go.
17:30I haven't tried yet.
17:34It's like a machine.
17:36Who needs one of those machines
17:37when you've got a mummy?
17:40My dad was vegetarian
17:41when we were growing up.
17:43My mum wasn't,
17:44so we all ate meat at home,
17:46but I think I had an awareness
17:48that vegetarianism was an option.
17:53We are ready to roll.
17:55Here we go.
17:57That's it, Albee.
18:00Look at this.
18:01See how huge it is?
18:03Fat.
18:03Giant.
18:04This is going to be so...
18:05cinnamon roll.
18:07When I was six,
18:09nearly seven,
18:10I decided
18:11that I didn't want
18:12to eat meat anymore
18:13and then became vegan
18:15just after Joy was born,
18:18so 11,
18:20over 11 years ago now.
18:22Oh, wow!
18:23Be careful.
18:24Be careful.
18:25They like rose up.
18:27They are gigantic.
18:31These are the best cinnamon rolls
18:33I've ever had in my life
18:35by a country mile.
18:37They are amazing.
18:38Oh.
18:39Thank you so much.
18:41You're very welcome.
18:43It's been my pleasure.
18:44What do you think
18:45about those cinnamon rolls?
18:46Delicious.
18:46On a scale of one to ten?
18:4911.
18:5011.
18:50That is so good.
18:52Best I've ever tasted.
18:53So,
18:54I think we'd better
18:54box them up for the rest
18:55and take them home to Daddy,
18:57otherwise he'll never forgive us.
19:02Bye, guys.
19:03Thank you, Gabriella.
19:05Bye.
19:06Peace.
19:07I couldn't actually believe
19:09how amazingly they turned out,
19:11probably because we had
19:13a professional helping us
19:15and John loved them.
19:16The kids loved them.
19:18We'll be eating them for days.
19:20There were so many of them
19:21and they were so delicious.
19:23Oh, no.
19:23Oh, we've got a tip for you.
19:25Tell Daddy how to eat it.
19:26Oh, yeah.
19:26You have to eat it
19:27from the middle.
19:28Look at the dog.
19:29Eat it from the middle?
19:30No.
19:30You take out the middle part
19:32then you break it out
19:33and you eat it from the middle.
19:35Yeah.
19:35So I have to pull the middle out?
19:37Yeah.
19:37Yeah.
19:39So nice, right?
19:41Oh, my God.
19:42That is actually amazing.
19:43The next morning,
19:52it's back to the grindstone
19:54for Jasmine.
19:57I just popped out
19:58to get some more paints
19:59for my dad
20:00because he just needed
20:02a little bit more.
20:04As amazing as Carlos has been
20:06and he's very capable
20:08of doing lots of different things
20:09and has already proven that,
20:12you know,
20:12maybe I need to start
20:13getting some other help in.
20:18It's looking more
20:19and more challenging
20:20to be finished
20:22the whole house
20:23before summer.
20:25I just really want
20:26to get the main areas done,
20:29the bedrooms,
20:29the living room,
20:30the kitchen,
20:31the garden,
20:31the pool,
20:32the balcony,
20:33the driveway,
20:34you know,
20:34just the main areas.
20:35It's not much to ask.
20:43Hi.
20:44Hi.
20:46How are you?
20:48Good.
20:49I've been to the vets.
20:50I've got the dog's cream
20:53for his eye.
20:54Glamour.
20:55I know.
20:56I've been there.
20:56I went to the headpiece shop as well.
20:59I've got my dad's paint.
21:01I'm starting to panic slightly.
21:03You know,
21:04I'm supposed to have someone else
21:05coming today
21:06to do the underfloor heating
21:07and they've not been able to come.
21:09Yeah.
21:09I mean,
21:10we still will be
21:1110 days away
21:12from that bathroom
21:12even thinking about
21:14being ready.
21:15I think the hill,
21:16the mountain
21:16that lays ahead of us,
21:18I think Carlos
21:18needs help.
21:21I don't think we can do it
21:22with Carlos
21:23and his guys anymore.
21:25Well,
21:25I feel like we've barely
21:27gotten started really,
21:28have we?
21:28I was expecting the top floor
21:30to be done by now.
21:31I'm starting to wonder
21:32what have we done?
21:36Because
21:36if we don't
21:37crack on with this,
21:38we're going to still be living
21:39in a building site
21:41by the time it gets to the summer.
21:42I was thinking the same.
21:44I think our dream
21:45of doing it floor by floor
21:46might be slightly naive
21:49and out the window.
21:50We just have to now
21:51just crack on.
21:51Crack on with everything we can.
21:53I think there is
21:54virtually zero chance
21:56of us getting
21:57everything done
21:59by this summer
22:00without some extra help.
22:04You know,
22:04I think
22:04we're going to need
22:06to bring out
22:07the big guns
22:08somehow.
22:10I'm going to go
22:10and get the kids then.
22:12Bye.
22:13Sorry,
22:13I can't do it.
22:14It won't be long.
22:16You'll have to do
22:17twice as much.
22:17You hope it won't.
22:18You hope it won't be long.
22:21The last time
22:22we did
22:22a renovation project
22:24on our house
22:25in England
22:26was just after
22:28I had given birth
22:30to Albion.
22:31And this time around
22:32it's a lot harder.
22:33It's in another country.
22:35It's in a different language.
22:36I think we need
22:37to get
22:38multiple things
22:41going on
22:42at once
22:42and the only way
22:43we can do that
22:43is by having
22:44more people
22:45working here.
22:46while my dad's been here
22:59he's been trying to
23:00find bits and bobs
23:01to do
23:01and
23:02one of the things
23:04when we were out
23:04this morning
23:05he decided
23:05we should paint
23:06the front door.
23:07What are you doing
23:09out here?
23:12Hi.
23:12I'm trying to do a video.
23:15I know that old man
23:16bringing on the front door
23:17with my hoodie
23:18and my clutches.
23:19I think the front door
23:19is quite important
23:20they're new.
23:22I think the front door
23:23is only.
23:23So that colour
23:25is what we've chosen
23:26and I actually
23:27quite like it
23:27it's only had one coat
23:28so far
23:28primer
23:29but when you compare
23:30it to the colour
23:31that we've got
23:31of the other blue
23:32around the rest
23:32of the house
23:33it makes me think
23:35we might need
23:36to change
23:37the rest of the house.
23:39It's not a small job
23:40there's only made
23:40of scaffolding
23:41and
23:41and
23:42and upstairs
23:44there have also
23:45been some changes
23:46as despite
23:47all the challenges
23:48progress is being made.
23:51Jasmine's finally
23:52got tiles
23:53she's happy with
23:54and Brent on site.
23:56He's an expert
23:57tiler
23:57who also does
23:58underfloor heating
23:59with 25 years
24:00of experience
24:01on the Costa del Sol
24:02under his belt.
24:04I feel
24:05like
24:06an end
24:07might finally
24:07be in sight
24:08to this
24:09epic saga
24:10that is
24:12our family bathroom.
24:14It must be
24:14more than two months ago
24:15now that John
24:16while I was away
24:17took the decision
24:18to just
24:18get the guys
24:19to rip out
24:20the whole bathroom.
24:21Then when we started
24:22to get back on track
24:23Carlos had someone
24:24to do the underfloor heating
24:25someone else
24:26to do the herringbone tiling
24:28and both of them
24:30let him down
24:31but now I do
24:32I do feel like
24:33we're getting
24:34somewhere.
24:35Hi!
24:36Hi!
24:37Oh my gosh!
24:39It was good, wasn't it?
24:40I love it.
24:41Yeah, come out well.
24:42Oh, it looks amazing.
24:44Yeah.
24:45I'm so glad
24:46I changed the tiles
24:47from the other ones
24:47that I didn't
24:48like as much.
24:50The first
24:51tiles I ordered
24:52for that bathroom
24:53when they arrived
24:54I looked at them
24:55and I thought
24:56actually I don't like them.
24:58They
24:58just looked
25:00really sort of
25:01fake rustic
25:02as opposed to
25:04genuinely
25:05like authentically
25:06rustic.
25:08So I sent them back
25:09and luckily
25:09I was able to
25:10exchange them
25:10for something else
25:11and the ones
25:11that I've got now
25:12I really, really love.
25:14It's looking brilliant.
25:15Yeah, looks nice.
25:16There's a bit of grout tomorrow.
25:18So that's it.
25:19Then you'll be finished.
25:20Do you want a cup of tea?
25:21Yes, please.
25:24Yes, we've had
25:25a few knockbacks.
25:26Yes, it's taken
25:27a lot longer
25:28than we'd hoped
25:30but of course
25:31in the end
25:32it will look amazing.
25:36With the bathroom
25:37well underway
25:38Jasmine has a little
25:39post-school
25:40pick-up adventure
25:41planned
25:41to find ideas
25:42for Joy's
25:43jungle-themed bedroom.
25:45I've heard
25:46that Estepona
25:47is known as
25:48the garden
25:49of the Costa del Sol
25:50so it's quite fitting
25:52that Estepona
25:53should have
25:54its own orchidarium.
25:56It's been around
25:57for more than 10 years
25:58and has over
25:591,300 different
26:01species of orchid
26:03as well as
26:04nearly 5,000
26:05other tropical plants.
26:07Living here
26:08well, we've got to
26:10go and see it
26:10haven't we?
26:17Joy's bedroom
26:18is a sort of
26:20rainforest jungle
26:21theme
26:22and so hopefully
26:24we might find
26:24some nice
26:25inspiration here.
26:29Oh, this is nice
26:31Joy
26:31I don't know
26:32if we could make
26:32your bedroom like that
26:34Oh, the glass stones
26:36The glass stones
26:37We as a family
26:42are very much
26:44nature lovers
26:45animal lovers
26:46tree huggers
26:48you know
26:49we're slightly
26:50well, I'm definitely
26:52a slight hippie
26:53at heart
26:54It's like a tropical
27:01oasis here
27:02isn't it?
27:03use the app
27:13and then
27:14we can see
27:15if the app
27:16gets it right
27:17Firestar
27:19Orchid
27:21I've got an app
27:22on my phone
27:23which when I'm
27:23going around
27:24and I see
27:24beautiful flowers
27:25I take a picture
27:26and it identifies
27:28the flower
27:29and once
27:30Albion took a picture
27:31of me
27:31with the app
27:32and it came out
27:33that I was
27:34a lady orchid
27:35Let me see
27:37what you are
27:37Stand there
27:40Ready?
27:46Albion
27:46you are
27:47a lady orchid
27:48What plant
27:49are you Joy?
27:53Lady orchid
27:54Oh, we're a family
27:55of lady orchids
27:56We should feel
27:56right at home
27:57here in the
27:57orchidarium
27:58Look at that
28:03stripy one
28:03It's like a zebra
28:05And these ones
28:07look
28:07They look like
28:08a duck
28:09with a hood on
28:10A duck
28:11with a hood on
28:12Where did that
28:12come from?
28:13I love your imagination
28:15Joy, look at this
28:18waterfall
28:19I want this
28:20on my balcony
28:21All right
28:23Veruca salt
28:24And I want
28:27a pony
28:27That's beautiful
28:31isn't it?
28:33I think I've
28:34read about this
28:35one
28:35It's got a
28:37really nice
28:37smell
28:38Have a sniff
28:40No news
28:41It's
28:43No, I don't
28:45I'm actually
28:46Let me
28:46All right
28:47I'll smell it
28:47I'll smell it
28:48Oh
28:50Oh my gosh
28:55Smell it
28:56It smells like
28:59rotten meat
29:00It attracts
29:02flies
29:03to pollinate it
29:04by imitating
29:06the smell
29:07and the look
29:08and the texture
29:09of rotten meat
29:10Shall we
29:11carry on
29:12through there?
29:16I'm going to
29:17take a picture
29:17of this
29:18plant
29:19I know
29:23it's probably
29:24a bit ambitious
29:25to think that
29:26Joy's bedroom
29:27might be anything
29:28even close to that
29:29but it's definitely
29:30given me
29:31some ideas
29:32and some food
29:33for thought
29:33about what we
29:34can do
29:35with her room
29:35Back at the house
29:45and in the bathroom
29:46the herringbone tiles
29:47are looking great
29:48and the underfloor
29:50heating and suites
29:51are in
29:51so the bath surround
29:53can be tiled
29:53while Carlos
29:55and the rest of his team
29:56bring in the rather
29:57sizable sideboard
29:58that will house
29:59the sink
30:00Do you want
30:01to remove the legs
30:03or not?
30:05No
30:05No
30:05Cuidado
30:10All right
30:13Hang on
30:14Hang on
30:15Hang on
30:16Hang on
30:16Cuidado
30:20I think they've
30:32done this before
30:32While there may now
30:39be rapid progress
30:40in the family bathroom
30:41there's still one
30:42first floor room
30:43that hasn't changed
30:44a bit
30:44Whilst actually
30:47not in that bad
30:48nick
30:48the ensuite bathroom
30:50accessed via
30:50Joy's walk-in wardrobe
30:52should really be
30:53next on the list
30:54What are we going to do
30:55about this bathroom?
30:56Obviously by now
30:57we'd planned to
30:59probably change it
31:00This was supposed to be
31:00done by now
31:01wasn't it?
31:02Mm-hmm
31:02But
31:03obviously
31:04with the other bathroom
31:06having taken
31:07so many months
31:08to get it
31:10done
31:11And it's still not done
31:12I'm actually thinking
31:15do we even need
31:16to change anything
31:16in here?
31:17It's not a very
31:18you know
31:19it's functional
31:20isn't it?
31:21It's more than
31:22functional
31:22it's fine
31:23Like
31:24minimum
31:24we could probably
31:25do it
31:26for
31:26is like
31:27six or seven
31:29thousand euros
31:30I think we should
31:32wait
31:32spend that money
31:33elsewhere
31:34and then
31:35if we have
31:35the time and
31:36money
31:37then do it
31:38Yeah
31:38our bathroom's
31:39leaking
31:39this one is
31:40functioning properly
31:41so
31:41I don't know
31:42have we just
31:42talked ourselves
31:43out of
31:43doing anything
31:44in here?
31:45For now
31:45I think we
31:46underestimated
31:47all the additional
31:48costs of just
31:49me not even
31:49being able to
31:50Yeah
31:51filling a skip
31:53we've just paid
31:54guys to rip out
31:55that stuff
31:55and fill that
31:56skip
31:56I mean
31:58I was always
31:58going to do that
31:59but I just
31:59can't do it
32:00I can't believe
32:00you're so inconsiderate
32:02you broke your leg
32:02you cost us
32:04all this money
32:05I think you know
32:05I'm not earning money
32:07and you're not earning
32:08I'm not earning money
32:09I'm possibly
32:09there's more money
32:10and manpower
32:11because I can't do it
32:12I think this bathroom
32:14I forgive you
32:14I forgive you
32:16With the decision
32:19made in one bathroom
32:20and progress
32:21continuing over
32:22the next few days
32:23in the other
32:23it's not the renovation
32:24now causing concern
32:26but one of the pets
32:27Astro is the dog
32:30with nine lives
32:31because he has so many times
32:35done crazy things
32:36that have put his life
32:38in danger
32:39and his latest adventure
32:41was jumping off
32:44of the roof terrace
32:46the dog caught sight
32:48of a cat in the garden
32:49and he decided
32:51to jump up
32:52over this wall
32:54down onto the roof tiles there
32:58and then he slipped off
33:00and fell down into the pool
33:02that's got no water in it yet
33:04because we need to fix it
33:06before we put water in it
33:06because it's leaking
33:07miraculously
33:09he's completely fine
33:10he hasn't broken anything
33:12and the vets had a look
33:14at him and said
33:15he seems to be
33:16all right
33:18miraculously
33:18but that has really shaken me up
33:21doesn't really seem possible
33:22that he's come out unscathed
33:25whoop whoop whoop
33:26are you okay
33:28oh bubba
33:30despite numerous delays
33:45along the way
33:46there's been a surge
33:47of activity
33:47in the family bathroom
33:48and with all the finishing touches
33:51now in place
33:52jasmine's grabbing john
33:53to take it all in
33:54this bathroom has been the bane of my life for the past couple of months
34:00i mean i at points i thought it would never get finished
34:03it felt like the kind of room you kind of went in
34:06and you got out of it really quickly
34:08so you went in to have a wee
34:09you do your wee
34:10go out as fast as you could
34:11like genuinely
34:12and that's the bathroom with the very damp ceiling
34:17what are you doing
34:20let's see how damp it is
34:21that went in my mouth
34:28i think it's like 10 years of
34:30neglect
34:31neglect
34:32it's looking great in here now isn't it
34:39finally
34:40finally
34:41what's your favourite bit
34:43those tiles
34:44and the toothbrush timer
34:47what's your favourite
34:49i don't know
34:50i quite like the massive sink and the wooden unit
34:53that is beautiful
34:54but i hadn't actually realised
34:56because i've only just seen this
34:58i brought it the other day
34:59i hadn't actually realised it's a toothbrush timer
35:01well it is now
35:02no i know it's great
35:03i mean it feels like it was
35:06shouldn't have been as painful as it was
35:07but let's hope the next three bathrooms that we have to do aren't as painful as this
35:13yeah let's hope they don't take three months each
35:16because otherwise we'll be here for a year
35:18doing bathrooms
35:19that bathroom will probably always remain the best bathroom in the house
35:27because all the blood sweat and tears that have gone into it
35:31there's one tile that when it gets caught by the light of the mirror
35:34i quite like the fact that they're slightly
35:37i mean they're meant to be slightly healed
35:40i like it
35:41i don't think there's any problem with that
35:43i love it all
35:44i think it's good
35:44you've done well
35:45i take all the credit
35:47i really love that bathroom
35:54i chose everything that i wanted
36:00i really went with my heart
36:02you know everything came from the heart
36:04there's all these things that have appeared
36:05i've not seen that
36:06there's a bottle of
36:07mmm fragrance
36:10exactly when alvy's
36:12made a particularly poopy smell
36:15no it was for you
36:16i know they say that kitchens and bathrooms sell houses
36:20but i think it's right
36:22i think you know
36:23that bathroom is
36:25testament to that expression
36:27in our last house
36:28that we did up
36:29in the uk
36:30my favourite
36:31one of my favourite rooms of the house
36:33was our en suite bathroom
36:36straight up
36:37it was you know
36:38just nice
36:39you could
36:40sit in there for 80s
36:42come on then
36:43let's go back to our
36:46slightly rubbish en suite
36:47our leaky en suite
36:50over in joy's bedroom
36:54with peter's decorating done
36:56it's now up to jasmine and john
36:57to transform the room
36:59with lighting
36:59furniture
37:00and those all-important
37:02finishing touches
37:03and john's finding his renovation feet again
37:06with a bespoke tree-themed shelving unit
37:09initially we started collecting driftwood so we could build it ourselves
37:16because we thought the tree could be made of driftwood
37:18because we're so close to the beach
37:19but that didn't work
37:22so then we basically contacted someone else
37:24and asked them if they could
37:25sort of build it and design it
37:27which they've done
37:28they've sent it to me
37:30now all i've got to do is assemble it and put it on the wall
37:32and as it costs just over 380 pounds
37:36john had better be up to the task
37:38if this even vaguely works i'll be amazed
37:41how am i meant to get that in there
37:48this is like literally
37:49a jigsaw puzzle
37:52don't worry it's the man with the broken leg of the ladder
38:03one shelf up
38:07i've already got the glue out
38:08to repair it
38:10it's all fine
38:11it's all fine
38:12nothing to see here
38:12there will be shelves
38:13by nightfall
38:15meanwhile jasmine's found a thrifty upgrade
38:20to a bed she paid 100 pounds for
38:22i bought these beds second hand
38:26mine and joy's beds
38:28just in a bit of a rush
38:31because we were moving in
38:33and they were this grey fabric
38:36upholstered with this grey fabric
38:38which is fine
38:39you know
38:40not offensive
38:41but underneath it's got a really actually quite nice velvet
38:44so i'm trying to take
38:45all of this
38:47cover off of it
38:49so that we can reveal
38:51a much nicer finish
38:54i think
38:55underneath
38:55and that will mean that
38:57you know
38:58it's almost been like a new bed for joy
39:00look at those pliers
39:02it's going to be a long afternoon for jasmine and john
39:07but with albion's bedroom
39:09and the family bathroom
39:10already looking fabulous
39:12and joy's room soon to follow
39:14phase one of the build
39:16and the first floor
39:17is nearly complete
39:19the biggest challenge
39:20has been
39:21having the time
39:23to
39:24sit down
39:25decide on things
39:27do the shopping
39:28going out
39:29finding little unusual quirky things
39:31i'm feeling exhausted
39:33i feel quite
39:35emotional about it actually
39:37it's another sunny costardale soul morning
39:51and joy's bedroom is now ready to show off
39:54right
39:55it's the moment you've been waiting for
39:59she wanted this rainforest theme
40:04i haven't gone too mad with it but i hope it's got enough
40:08for her
40:10you know i actually have got a bit of butterflies in my stomach
40:13can i go in
40:15let's go in and i can't wait to see what you think
40:17i hope she likes it
40:18i'm sure she will
40:20it looks beautiful
40:21joy's bedroom
40:25previously was just
40:27meh
40:28it was nothing really
40:30it didn't look very exciting
40:32it was really dark
40:34you couldn't open the blinds
40:36it was just quite bland
40:38oh my god
40:44what do you think
40:49it's so cool
40:51now it just looks dreamy
40:58i love it
41:00i want to swap bedrooms with her
41:03i mean the shelf is so cool
41:07like who do you actually know that has something like this
41:10the driftwood bookshelf is a really big statement
41:14it just combines her two loves so perfectly
41:17because she loves reading
41:18and she loves nature
41:19and so that brings them both together
41:21i think john did have a little bit of a challenge on his hands with it
41:25but i think he's done a brilliant job putting it all together
41:28that's pretty
41:32you like the hammock
41:33finally i won't have to put all of my teddies on my bed and therefore have no space for myself
41:39yeah exactly
41:40a teddy hammock who knew such a thing existed
41:43is it what you were expecting
41:45even better
41:47is it
41:49aww
41:51i think there's quite a few different styles and different textures in there
41:58which i really love
42:00but i just love all the little quirky bits and pieces that i found
42:04and putting them all together in a way that
42:09just turned out lovely
42:11and somehow they all just work
42:14it's just beautiful
42:16what about the desk the chair do you like all that
42:20the chair is very pretty
42:22i like the
42:24this
42:25it's beautiful
42:25it's really soft as well
42:27the desk is basically a slab of natural wood that's been sanded a bit and varnished
42:33and it just you know that whole natural rainforest theme you know what could be more
42:40rainforest theme than a big slab of natural wood do you think the wallpaper looks good
42:45i think it really fits with like everything else in here
42:49it's just so cute there's all those lovely animals it works so well with the rest of her room i think that was the sort of inspiration i think for everything else that went on around it
43:02thank you thank you thank you so much it's so pretty
43:07daddy did loads as well
43:12yeah i heard him drilling like 24 7
43:15into the ceiling
43:17oh well i'm glad you love it honey
43:21her room looks so perfect but it's almost not real it's almost like hey i just created it
43:29but it is real and it's beautiful
43:32i can't even describe how happy i am to have the rooms finished that we've done
43:42it's amazing
43:44i am delighted obviously that we've finished some areas of the house
43:51but honestly if we have the same amount of obstacles doing the rest of the house as we did
43:58with the upstairs then i could very easily fall out of love with this whole thing
44:05to get this done by the summer we are definitely going to need help
44:10you know he was here with us from the start but i think we need a bit more help
44:20we're going to take away that bar
44:21add a door which will go straight through into the gym
44:24this is that much concrete we're essentially breaking into a bank
44:37right do you think i look protected enough
44:40i think you look protected enough
44:41most will always be there as part of my house
44:46you
44:59you
45:04you
