Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr
After a tough first week transforming upmarket apartments in Manchester, the remaining nine designers return to Michelle’s design studio on the south coast to find out about their next challenge. Welcomed by host Alan Carr, they are happy to discover that this week they are going to be able to work on their own for the first time. Michelle tells them that she’s sending them to the Surrey Hills, to the fabulous Wotton House. With Grade II listed gardens, this grand hotel, which was once home to the aristocratic Evelyn family, has nine bedrooms that are tired and in dire need of an update. The designers have a bedroom each, and Michelle asks them to create a space that reflects their signature style but with a 'British eccentric' twist. Helping Michelle survey the spaces is guest judge Guy Oliver. Having designed the interiors for some of the most well-known hotels in London, including Claridges and the Connaught, Guy knows everything there is to know about classy hotels and discerning customers.
