The Nineties and Noughties

Reinvention was the key in the decades which saw the biggest lifestyle changes of all to the home, and the rise of makeover television - the 1990s and 2000s.

Reinvention is the key as the series concludes with the era that saw the biggest lifestyle changes of all to the home - the 1990s and 2000s. ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Two was making over homes by chucking out the chintz, turning gardens into outside rooms and kitchens into pukka Jamie Oliver zones. But it didn't stop there. Soon there was a craze for decluttering and minimal living linked to the crazed flipping of homes in the mortgage-mad Noughties. Inevitably, a slew of programmes about buying and selling property, homes in the country and living abroad followed.

The stars of this new era of makeover television, including Laurence Llewellyn-Bowen, Diarmuid Gavin and Charlie Dimmock, are all on hand to try and explain how this bewilderingly fast reinvention of the very idea of home happened - and why it couldn't last.

Narrated by Mel Giedroyc.
