Description:
Stacey and her gang – organiser Dilly, carpenter Rob and cleaner Iwan – challenge the Mistry family to sort their life out in seven days. To achieve this, they’ll have to embark on a mammoth declutter. They ask the family to try and let go of half their possessions so that they can then beautifully reorganise their home. <br/><br/>With Stacey’s help, the family start packing all their possessions into boxes. Every single item is stripped from the family home, revealing how much space there is under all their things. We get to know the family behind the clutter – parents Nila and Nat, and their grown-up children, son Jai (26) and daughter Roshni (30). With multigenerational living causing arguments due to the mess, it’s time for the family to sort through the clutter that has taken over the house. <br/><br/>With the house all packed up, the family’s possessions are laid out in a giant warehouse like an art installation of their entire lives, including 361 glasses, 76 jars of spices and over 5,000 bangles. <br/><br/>With everything displayed in front of them, the family are shocked to see how much they really own, and wonder how it all fitted into their house in the first place. <br/><br/>There are emotional moments as the family go through their most treasured items. We learn that Nila arrived in the UK in the 1970s as a refugee, with her family's only possessions wrapped in a sheet, so she struggles to let go of items they worked so hard to acquire in the first place. And both Nat and Nila put almost every penny they have earned into expanding their two-bedroom house, welcoming in elderly parents in poor health so they could look after them and continuing to provide a space for son Jai, who can’t afford a place of his own. <br/><br/>At the house, carpenter Rob breathes new life into the home, with some ingenious carpentry for the converted garage to turn it from a junk room into a living room for the couple's adult children. Iwan gives the home a supersized spring clean, with lots of useful tips along the way, whilst Dilly reorganises the kitchen, giving Nila an understairs cupboard of dreams. <br/><br/>When the family are left with only the must-keep items, they are packed back up to the house before it’s stylishly refilled by Stacey and her team, ready for the big reveal to the family. Have they really managed to transform this family home by decluttering, organising and upcycling alone?
