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. Kirstie catches up with Kathleen and Tom, who we first met back in 2016 when their charming three-bed Victorian terrace in Gosforth, Newcastle, had become a four-year Love It or List It battleground. While its character and location - just 10 minutes from the city centre - initially won them over, the home quickly became a logistical nightmare. For Tom, the lack of outdoor space, parking and storage was a dealbreaker. After all, housing four boats, five canoes and five bikes isn't a small ask. But Kathleen was determined to make it work for them and their two daughters. All she needed was Kirstie's expertise to convince Tom that it was possible. Armed with a £20,000 Love It budget, Kirstie delivered an ingenious redesign, overhauling the downstairs layout to maximise space. Meanwhile, Phil had a £375,000 List It budget and pulled no punches, presenting jaw-dropping homes that left Tom starry-eyed and even had Kathleen questioning her loyalty to their terrace. In 2019, Phil returned and learnt that the couple had made the leap to a spacious four-bed detached home - a renovator's dream - with ample room for Tom's ever-growing fleet of boats. Now, eight years after they first met, Kirstie is heading back to see how far Kathleen and Tom have come with their ambitious renovations and to find out what adventures this outdoorsy family have planned next. Expect big reveals and plenty of surprises.
