Homes for Veterans, Part 2

Episode 8 of 9

In the second episode of a two-part special, Nick Knowles and the team continue with their project to transform an entire street of rundown houses into homes for war veterans.

In the second episode of a two-part special, Nick Knowles and the DIY SOS team continue with their most ambitious build ever - an attempt to regenerate a rundown community in Manchester.

The team are aiming to transform an entire street, turning empty properties into homes for war veterans and building a support centre to help other veterans find homes and jobs. The plan is to redo the fronts of all the houses and put in new utilities - but with late nights and delays, it is looking like the team might not meet their deadlines.
