Escape to the Chateau: Make Do and Mend Season 2 is a must-watch for fans of the original Escape to the Chateau series, as it sees popular couple Dick and Angel Strawbridge taking on an exciting new project.
The first season introduced the concept and saw the duo helping families across the UK to tackle their DIY and design dilemmas.
Season 2 kicks off soon and will see all-new challenges. In the first season, they shared top tips with viewers and were inspired by questions they'd received from viewers of the original series.
Explaining the idea Dick Strawbridge told us: "We receive so many emails and questions on social media asking how we do certain things and the numbers went up in lockdown because people had time to do things that had been on their list for ages. We said, ‘Why don't we help?'"
