Stacey and her gang, organiser Dilly, carpenter Rob and cleaner Iwan, challenge the Lloyd family to sort their life out in seven days. To achieve this, they’ll have to embark on a mammoth declutter. They ask the family to try and let go of half their possessions, so that they can then beautifully reorganise their life and home.

With Stacey’s help, the family start packing all their possessions into boxes. Every single item is stripped from the family home, revealing how much space there is under all their things. We get to know the family behind the clutter – Venicia and Elisha, their sons, little Elisha, Zechariah and Josh, their daughter Faith, and Venecia’s younger brother Samuel, who joined the family two years ago after Samuel and Venecia’s mum sadly died of Covid-19.

With the house all packed up, the family’s possessions are laid out in a giant warehouse like an art installation of their entire lives, including 118 blankets, 116 hair accessories, 51 hats, 31 mobile phones and tablets and 52 bottles of perfume. With everything displayed in front of them, the family are shocked to see how much they really own and are left to wonder how it all fitted into their house in the first place.

There are emotional moments as the family go through their most treasured items. Mum Venicia shares memories of her mother, and Samuel finds a broken tablet with treasured photos of his late mother. Venicia finds it hard to let go of her beloved blankets, but eventually the items they do decide to give up are put into piles to recycle, donate or sell.

Back at the house, carpenter Rob breathes new life into the family’s home with some ingenious carpentry, including the older boys’ new football-themed bedroom. Cleaner Iwan gives the house a supersized spring clean, with lots of useful tips along the way, and Dilly reorganises their kitchen gadgets and condiments into a brand new larder.

When the family are left with only their must-keep items, they are packed up and taken back to the house before it’s stylishly refilled by Stacey and her team, ready for the big reveal to the family. Have they really managed to transform this family’s life and home by decluttering, organising and upcycling alone?
