Series 10: 1. Dr Ranj
The series kicks off with a sky-high celebration as Denise Nurse checks in on TV’s Dr Ranj, who has been busy renovating an old moorland water tower to create the most stylish home makeover imaginable.\n\nOnce the mystery house, it’s now Ranj’s personal fitness regime, because who needs a gym when you’ve got five flights of stairs between you and the roof garden? Denise huffs and puffs her way to the top – with style, of course! – to find the doctor hosting his housewarming party. From dizzying heights to dazzling decor, this celebrity revisit is one big, brilliant tower-top triumph.
