Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners

Season 1

Full-time house husband James, who sweeps his floors up to 10 times a day, helps Cheshire couple Jodi and Roger restore order to their home, while mother-of-two Kristy heads to Northamptonshire, where Kay and Dilip's former corner shop is filled with collectibles, bric-a-brac and furniture from local charity shops. Linda Dykes is joined by recruits Hayley and Richard at Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park, where fly-tipping, graffiti and litter are all a problem.

Former opera singer Cynthia, who has a lifelong fear of germs and bacteria, heads to Gloucestershire to help 75-year-old otter lover Daphne clear the clutter from her cottage, which she has lived in for the past 46 years. Meanwhile, Linda Dykes and her sharp-eyed recruits visit Allesley Park in Coventry to tackle the problem of dog excrement.

Self-confessed shopaholic Paul collects Star Trek memorabilia in the belief that it will one day be his children's inheritance, but partner Elaine fears their two-bedroom Surrey home is turning into a death trap with all the clutter, so estate agent Penny is sent to restore order. Plus, OCD sufferer Hayley heads to Plumstead, south London, to help library assistant Shereen, who last cleaned her flat a year ago.

Lancashire hoarder Julie Arkwright receives a visit from Mark, who can spend an hour a day getting the pleats in his curtains to hang symmetrically, while Cheyza Burch travels to Oxfordshire to help shopaholic Amanda. Linda Dykes heads to Wirksworth in Derbyshire with keen recruits Richard and Hayley to work their magic on a community-run swimming pool lacking the funds for a cleaner.

Two more of Linda Dykes' sharp-eyed recruits tackle homes in dire need of attention. Denise, who was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder in 2002, is taking four days out of her own cleaning regimen to make life easier for 82-year-old former British Aerospace engineer Frank from Chipping Sodbury, South Gloucestershire, while hairdresser Adam heads to Buckinghamshire to help Helen with her piles of clutter. The cleaning agency also takes on the challenge of sprucing up an underpass in Redhill, Surrey.

Documentary following the work of a cleaning agency run by Linda Dykes, who hires only those with the highest standards in keeping things spotless. Each week, Linda's recruits visit Britons whose homes are in dire need of attention, beginning with Christopher Sylvester, a retired antiques dealer whose stone cottage has been overwhelmed by collectibles and bric-a-brac dating back 15 years. Plus, telephone adviser Richard Pugh, who hasn't cleaned his flat since he moved in four years ago.
