Amanda Holden purchases two rundown apartments for one euro each in rural Sicily and convinces best friend Alan Carr to spend a summer renovating them into an Italian dream home.

Amanda and Alan take on their first project, designing a Sicilian kitchen. Alan tackles demolition in 36-degree heat, and Amanda learns how to cook the island’s signature dish.

Amanda and Alan divide and conquer as they renovate the bathrooms, but struggle to get on board with each other’s vision when a bidet and disco ball spark a heated debate.

Alan takes charge of a bedroom, but doubt sets in as Amanda struggles with his vision. To nail his ‘rustic chic’ look, Alan visits designer Marie at her 300-year-old palazzo.

Amanda and Alan aim to transform the courtyard into a Mediterranean oasis. Alan delves into Sicily’s famous art scene, while Amanda tackles the building’s damaged exterior.

Alan has concerns over Amanda’s taste as she aims to bring a slice of Hollywood to Sicily in the master bedroom with a banana leaf-themed boudoir.

Alan and Amanda are on the home stretch as they take on the interiors for the final room and reveal their labour of love to their Sicilian family with an emotional farewell party.
