Find It Fix It Flog It

Simon and henry travel all over the uk and visit people to dig through junk and unused items in the hope of making money for the owners. Very enjoyable show and a great cast , Its much like american pickers and american restoration in one show, It intresting to see what people would pay for stuff and you do actully learn a few facts about the areas they visit

Lovely girl but ruins everything by painting beautiful wood in bilious colours. I wouldn't give her anything to upcycle. Ruined so many lovely things, particularly that old doll's house. Simon is brilliant and I like about 95% of his work. Henry focused too much on cars, bikes and tractors although I like what he does with things like old signs, petrol cans, etc. . Would love to see some old sofas and old chairs reupholstered and brought back to how they were originally. If I wanted wood painted in awful colours I would go to ~Ikea. I also cannot believe what they say they sell the items for. Most of them I wouldn't pay a fraction of the cost on.

I like this, I feel sorry for Simon sometimes because he sees the real beauty in an object and Gemma comes along with her bloody emulsion and pastel colours and spoils it. The beautiful old dolls house, Georgian looking house with old furniture. They had so many lovely wooden models and she painted them. MY GOD my mum did that in the 1960s and ruined so many antiques. At least they had an excuse it was after the war and they wanted colour because the conscription furniture was so dull. Anyway him and Henry have me in stitches. I've loved Simon since he was on Brookside and to see him do well with property and so on is a joy. Sadly Gemma looks like 1980s Debbie who was Simon's love interest when they were together in Damon and Debbie. So there! Tell us if it comes back with these lot make sure she's not let loose on something like that again. She is so selfish she wanted it how she liked it and took about a grand off the value. She's done it loads. They make mistakes that's the fun but she needs to stop it. Oh and I'm an artist too a real one so I know what I'm talking about LOL.

These guys turn up some quirky and interesting items for upcycling. Their ideas are often very good, and similarly the results, but there's no way in 21st century UK that those results could be seriously achieved at their declared costs. The outlays they claim to have spent are just plain ridiculous, and that sadly undermines that whole idea of the programme. The achievements remain worthwhile even if the format is badly flawed.

A really nice watch. Not top level restoration but some great ideas and the presenters make it more entertaining. With money warned often going to good causes, what's not to like?!
