Nick Knowles is back on DIY SOS: The Big Build with his hard hat and steel-tapped boots as his enforced absence of one episode is put behind him for a new extended run of shows. The home makeover programme is back in the BBC One schedules for a its 32nd series starting at 8pm on Tuesday (May 10).
For more than 20 years, in a variety of formats, viewers have seen Nick, 59, and team working with volunteers across the UK on improving the living conditions of those in need. Whether they have been injured in an accident, suffered illness or other life-changing incidents, the DIY SOS crew has been there to rally volunteers to transform their homes.
Projects can see everything from walk-in bathrooms, disabled access, landscaped gardens and room makeovers take place against a tight deadline. And after having to miss the BBC Children in Need special due to his appearance on a Shreddies TV advert, Nick is firmly back as main presenter.
