With the build behind schedule, relationships with friends and family become strained.

Kristian Digby builds his own dream house. Things begin to go to plan as the exterior of Kristian's new home is finished off and the builders crack on with the interior.

When TV presenter Kristian Digby set his heart on owning a stylish contemporary property in London, his options - and his budget - were limited. But this was not going to put him off. The solution was simple: instead of buying his dream home, he would build it!

Using his back garden for a plot, Kristian is convinced he can build his perfect pad in nine months and with a tiny budget of 150,000 pounds. But self-building is not for the fainthearted and what follows is a rollercoaster ride as Kristian struggles to prevent his dream home turning into a nightmare.

After all the trials and tribulations, things begin to go to plan for Kristian. The exterior of his new home is finished off and the builders have cracked on with the interior too, from the staircase to tiling.

However he has blown his original budget and the build is months behind schedule, all of which begins to put a strain on his relationships with friends and family who have helped him through the project.

Kristian also meets the couple from Wiltshire whose self-build home is a trip back to the future and he turns on the waterworks with a stint of plumbing at building college.

Also featured is the first-time buyer and builder who constructed a four bed house for under 100,000 pounds and the new home that has been made almost entirely from recycled material.

BBC One is a TV channel that started broadcasting on the 20th April 1964. It replaced BBC Television.

Uncle Max: Plays Golf

Plays Golf

CBBC - Uncle Max, Plays Golf

Uncle Max and Luke triumph in a game of golf against a smug father-and-son team.

Silent comedy series about nine-year-old Luke and his larger-than-life Uncle Max. Uncle Max and Luke triumph in a game of golf against a super-smug father and son.

Comedy series about the adventures of nine-year-old Luke and his larger-than-life (and twice as accident prone) Uncle Max. The pair's zany adventures appeal to adults and children and cross language barriers, as the show is dialogue-free.

Creator David Schneider stars as Uncle Max, a character who extends the tradition of screen comedy invented by great visual gag artists like Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton, and continued by the likes of Jacques Tati and Rowan Atkinson. Schneider is a master of physical comedy, with rubbery features which were made for clowning.

Like his illustrious predecessors, Uncle Max has a striking appearance, with distinctive peg trousers, loud shirt and spiky haircut. Each episode starts with Uncle Max pulling up outside Luke's house on his tandem and honking his horn, which produces a different sound each time.

Uncle Max and Luke triumph in a game of golf against a super-smug father and son. On the way, Max proves that the joy of golf lies not so much in hitting the ball as digging a six-foot hole around it while trying; that one man's bunker is another man's beach; that golf bags make the perfect skateboard as long as you're being dragged along by a speeding golf cart; and that the rules of golf are at best ambiguous on what happens if a ball is swallowed by a pig.
