The first of four programmes following the progress of several people, over the course of a year, as they build their dream houses. They must deal with not only practical problems but also the hidden stresses that can affect their personal relationships. The series opens with the Shrimptons, who are about to start work on a kit home, Jan Tempest, who plans to convert three portakabins, and Ian and Resh Spafford, who have hired an architect.
