Joe Crowley catches up with people who decided to renovate unloved houses. Joe returns to a picturesque Cotswolds village to view the progress on a 300-year-old thatched cottage.

Joe returns to the picturesque village of Churchill in the Cotswolds to catch up with Camilla Hanchet, who had bought an empty and dilapidated 300-year-old thatched cottage. The property was in need of major modernisation, and Camilla was preparing to roll up her sleeves and start the painstaking job of turning the abandoned abode into her dream home. Thirteen months on, Joe is back to see out how the renovation is going. 

We're also in London to see how a project to save and restore Britain's oldest standing concrete building dating back to the 1870s is progressing and we catch up with empty property officer Matthew Smith on his mission to save abandoned homes in Birmingham.
