Back for a second TV series, the Restoration Man show celebrates the past, but crucially re-invents a future for architectural treasures in the 21st century
All over Britain, thousands of old buildings lie forgotten and neglected, tangled up with red tape and development restrictions. Many of these property orphans are steeped in history and are of outstanding architectural interest, yet are slowly being left to rot. Luckily these forgotten gems are being bought by stubborn romantics who all share one dream – they want to create a home which is totally unique.
Architect George Clarke is passionate about Britain’s architectural heritage and wants to help breathe new life into these architectural treasures. Sharing his vision and expertise to help these restoration warriors realise their dreams, George tours England, Wales and Scotland to find the finest examples of windmills, towers, churches, brickworks and medieval halls.
Series Two finds George discovering more magnificent buildings and tempering the enthusiasm of their new owner’s grand designs. Plus as a bonus, George re-visits five of the structures from Series 1 to see if their dream transformation has gone to plan.
4 disc set includes 16 episodes, over 11 hours of content!
