No, they are NOT "beautiful," not by any stretch of the imagination.

This is a very old episode, and I believe the old woman is long dead. The younger woman's dog is dead, died about ten years ago of old age (that's per a followup episode of how well they maintained their homes...it was shot a year after, and the woman had gone right back to hoarding, long before the dog died, so there they were again, exactly the same situation).

Her dog 'Two Socks' is a terrier. When she's 'rummaging around' she's likely looking for, and finding, vermin in that hoard. It's what terriers often will do. The same way a 'herding breed' will herd. If there are no animals, they'll often 'herd' their people, instead.

Your comment is extremely difficult to read, but I'm assuming you're saying that nobody expects the survivors to save everything (or even anything) upon their deaths. If that's what you're saying, you're correct; my parents died just 13 days apart 18 years ago (Dad died first), and in her last few days of life, Mom told my siblings and me that we were to feel free to get rid of every single thing if we wanted to, and we did. Other than selling the antiques she and Dad collected...they were not hoarders, but were very careful, deliberate collectors...we just trashed everything from their 55 years of life together. None of us wanted anything other than pictures of them, and that's all anyone has.

The dog in the one woman's home is dead from old age, and died a year after the clean....they showed the woman in a "what are they doing now?" episode shot a year later, and she had gone right back to her clutter and garbage habits, and she said the dog had died about a month prior to the episode. It'd be nice if they'd put the actual date of the episode somewhere so people aren't mislead by what seems to be a current episode.

@jb67128 ай бұрын
Hoarding isn't always a mental disorder, and people need to stop calling it that. Just like so many other catchall "diagnoses," everyone wants to call a penchant for junk and trash a "mental disorder," and it's inaccurate. Yes, many UK homes are very small, at least by our American standards, and hoarding clutter makes their misuse of space a real issue. The old woman is likely dead by now...she was 79 in this episode, which is around ten years old, and she was in very bad physical condition at the making of the show...and the younger woman went right back to her hoarding nearly as soon as the cleaners left. There was a followup done about a year after this one, showing several hoarders and whether they'd kept their homes clean. She was one who did not, and it was pretty much out of control again. Her dog died about a month prior to the followup, too, just old age.

These people would benefit from everything being removed from their homes and put into a warehouse so they can see just how much stuff they have and work through it with help from a counsellor. It would also create an opportunity where the house can be cleaned and maintenance works carried out. They all need help to disconnect from putting value on stuff rather than people in their lives. Tough job though

@jb67128 ай бұрын
They typically don't; there are cleaners in the UK who will do charity cleans, never asking for any money. They already have enough clientele that they can afford to offer their services for such cleanups as these on occasion. This episode is around ten to 12 years old...the old woman is likely dead now; she was 79 in this episode, and in very bad physical condition, it appeared. The younger woman went right back to her hoarding nearly as soon as the cleaners left, and her dog died about a year after the clean was done. If you're talking about how do they afford all the junk, that's so easy, it's nearly a no-brainer; dumpster diving, junk stores (such as Dollar Tree, and all the ones under that same umbrella category), freebies given to them, any money that's given to them as a gift. Lots and lots of ways of acquiring junk, and they're typically masters at it.

Someone, please enlighten me: How do these people afford to fill their homes with items they obviously haven't used or even seen in years? I'm sure some of them are getting benefits they probably shouldn't even be getting if they have too much money to spend on junk to fill their living spaces. I just saw a woman almost running into the grocery store and she had a handicapped card in her car. I was parked next to her because I can barely walk and my husband was in getting a few items. I'M handicapped, walking is terribly painful so seeing someone taking up a space for someone else that has trouble walking really annoys me. If you can walk or almost run and are having a very GOOD day it would be nice if you parked in a regular spot and let the people that have trouble walking take that space. There are only 2 spots in the entire lot for handicapped people to park at this particular store.

I understand, some people take advantage when they are not handicapped. I am sorry you run into that. I Just wanted to make a couple of general comments on the topic. I questioned a friend I had not seen in ages, why he had a handicap sticker. His handicap of severe heart disease was not visible. I take an elderly person for groceries with me. One day he was a fall risk I and wished I could park closer. I dropped off, went quickly in, and brought the car to the door quickly thereafter. I did not think it safe to leave the person unattended. I also made a complaint at the store as they removed benches near the door inside and outside. Really with the size of some stores, it might be smart to have a couple of benches in the shopping areas too. Whether the person has a permanent handicap or recovering from an illness... Also needed for those who take the senior bus as they have to wait sometimes to be picked up. I know people can order groceries. A lot of people want to choose their own food, do not have s smart phone, or pay the fee. It is slso perhaps their only social outing of the week.
