Looking for design or DIY help? How you could star on Escape to the Chateau

Channel 4 is looking for would-be designers and hopeful DIYers to star on their hit show Escape to the Chateau: Make Do and Mend.

Hosted by Dick and Angel Strawbridge, the show helps the nation overhaul their homes with 'how-to' advice, tips and tricks to help avoid DIY drama.

Filmed at their dreamy chateau in France, Dick and Angel will team up with families from across the UK looking for practical advice and inspiration for adding a special, personal touch to their home.

The family - including the pair's children Arthur and Dorothy - will tackle their own "dream" DIY and design projects on the show too.

Dick and Angel's clever ideas give inspiration for sitting rooms, attics, sheds, cupboards and gardens.

Dick and Angel said: “Between the pair of us we have nearly a century’s worth of “make do and mend” experience and so we are really excited to share our knowledge and passion with families across the UK.

"Finding ourselves with more time at home is a fantastic opportunity to fix those items that have been waiting for years, or to embark on a creative project.

"Escape to the Chateau: Make Do and Mend is about giving something you’ve always wanted to do a go and bringing some happiness and joy into your home.”

If you want to feature on the show, email makedoandmend@dickandangel.co.uk to be forwarded an application form.

Escape to the Chateau: Make Do and Mend is a co-production between Two Rivers Media and Chateau TV.
