Craig Phillips has recalled one of his worst ever experiences while hosting 60 Minutes Makeover.
The 51-year-old from Liverpol appeared as a property expert on the hit ITV show, which aimed to completely renovate a person's home in only an hour. The Big Brother winner has detailed his experiences on the show in an exclusive interview with our sister site, The Daily Star.
He explained how a renovation took a turn when the guest actually didn't want a home makeover. He said: "There was just this one occasion where we couldn't do what we were sent there to do, but we had to respect his decision - he didn't want us in his house full stop.

"Picture the scene, we got there that morning, fourteen to fifteen of us, we've closed the road off, they cancelled all the police, we've got like probably ten or fifteen fans, we've got removal vehicles, we've got skips.
"And in that first hour, we already know what's going and what isn't. So the kitchen was coming out, we had removal stickers on. "So we had gone a few minutes in with crowbars and we were ripping the entire kitchen out!"
He added: "So when you start there's no turning back and somewhere down the road there's a new kitchen and our team are now setting all the legs up and setting the carpet up and getting all the worktops ready for us to fit it."
However, Craig explained things came to a dramatic halt when the owner of the house told them to stop after the kitchen was already destroyed. He said: "The kitchen now is flattened, the bedroom units are out in the street piled up in the skips and were not careful as we're taking out because we know it's scrap at this point."
The star then added: "The gentlemen whose house we were at got wind of it and decided I'm not having this, I'm coming back."
Craig was in disbelief as he added how the guest also refused to allow producers to make amends by giving him the new furniture. 60 Minute Makeover last aired on ITV in 2018.
