Home Rescue

Since they moved to Tallaght from the Liberties decades ago, Brigid and Chris have raised two sons but never had the time or the resources to make the most of their family home. As their youngest son Adam prepares to move out, the soon to be empty nesters are keen to enjoy a little space, but with three cramped ground floor rooms and a garden shed filled to the rafters, they need help.

Róisín and the Desperate Houses crew join Wendy, Daniel and their two kids Jun-Li and Mae-Li at their modest two bed house in Portlaoise, Co. Laois. For 'house', read 'storage facility', because ever since Wendy moved the contents of her former hair salon into the kitchen, there's no room to move!

Róisín Murphy and the crew join Vivienne, Ger and their five young kids at their mid-terrace 3-bedroom house in Leixlip, County Kildare.
