Here's how I think it went...
Also, I'm new here, hi! *waves*
- Take all your stuff that you actually want to keep (or sell) out of the house (later you'll tell the production company that you cleared the house for decorating in advance, as they say on the voiceover).
- Stage leak/vandals for insurance scam, conveniently hugely affecting the most expensive room to re-do for maximum payout.
- After claiming the money for that, instead of actually spending it on a new kitchen, have channel 4 pay you for a show and have a bunch of companies give the work and materials for free for that and multiple other rooms (or paid for by the channel depending on which theory you want to go with). (Couldn't get a floor gifted? Never mind, just take the floorboards from a bedroom...).
- Have companies donate all the new things (neon lights are popularly gifted to influencers for example, and there's no way they coincidentally happened to feature in nearly every room).
- You don't care about making crappy craft things, all you care about is that you can make it from old junk you had already instead of having to buy stuff yourself, to maximise profit.
- You don't care about the fact that your new kitchen table seats 4 when you're a family of 6-7, because you don't plan on living in the house at all.
- You sell media stories about the show to the papers and then complain about them on social media, driving more traffic/interest/comments on them and ensuring they'll buy more stories from you in the future.
- Having the TV show means more traffic to your socials, conveniently timed for your OF launch.
- When your house is sold/repossessed, it's worth more because of the work that's been done (most importantly the kitchen, as banks won't give mortgages without a kitchen) - therefore you end up owing less to your creditors. So not only have you not done the work, you've got people to do it all for free and made ££££££ off the back of it.

...can also be made into a door knocker..ideal for getting rid of cold callers/junk mail/ unwanted guests.
flowers last week, photographed holding hands, hotel break, it’s all stuff normal couples do but don’t ram it down other people’s throats! They’re just kidding themselves, the only aisle they’ll be walking down this year will be the dog food aisle in Lidl
