Hoarder's Kitchen Repulses OCD Cleaner | Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners | Episode 11 | Filth

Glen from Watford spends 13 hours each week cleaning his one-bedroom flat. He visits a former hotel on the Isle of Wight, which is owned by David, whose collections include an estimated 300,000 books, 10 African masks, a strait jacket, three parachutes, 25 military uniforms and a range of magician's props.
Obsessive organizer Zahra, who vacuums eight times a day, heads to Bridgend to meet shop owner Jo, who admits she needs some help decluttering her home.

Please do keep in mind the comments are more roasting David for his shitty personality and how rude he is to Glen. Plus his total lack of self awareness. Disabled people who genuinely can’t do these things for themselves don’t have a choice and aren’t given enough support by society generally. I think it’s also just that a lot of people on the show like David don’t appreciate anything the cleaning people are doing for them and are totally ungrateful. If you’re humble and appreciative of people who help clean for you then I think people would look a lot more favourably towards you than someone like David.

[@delanyx2310]

David is still very deep in denial. I'm surprised he did allow so much to be done. He's just like every other hoarder I've seen in tons of videos. Being super annoying and rude towards the helping person with sarcastic comments and making excuses for not even trying. He doesn't seem to be so physically ill as to not being able to swipe a table or put a pan in the dishwasher. He will be back to the old situation in no time and even worse if he's not willing to accept his illness and do therapy

[@jb6712]

Considering that this episode is around ten or 11 years old, he's already been living this same way for at least a full decade again. He's narcissistic, and only his way will ever be good enough for him, no matter that he's a boneheaded filth-meister.

I feel like Glen really stayed strong which was very much needed with David. I will admit though, I am impressed that David hired a cleaner :) That's a great start to getting the whole house done and kept clean. Great job all in all for both cases!

[@jb6712]

The cleaners don't get paid for doing this; at least, not according to what I saw in an interview several years ago. They do it because they "get to" be on camera, and because they really do believe they can somehow help someone dirty change to being clean. These are all old episodes, too, no new ones having been made in at least 8 years, so David is probably either dead by now, or nearly buried in his vile hoard.

[@paulrollings9606]

Interesting video to watch. The single man living in the old B&B was fascinating to watch. He actually voiced that he had better things to do than clean his property. Yet he reported that his health has deteriorated. Hardly surprising given how he was living. None of us really enjoy cleaning but we enjoy living in a clean property. It's like stopping smoking - if you're not fully committed with stopping smoking then you'll never achieve this. The man clearly had a lot of valuable items. Why not part with some of these - sell them and enjoy a better quality of life and travel. Can't take things with you when you die. He clearly stated that he was not a hoarder and yet he had accumulated so much over the years. The family living in the cluttered house was frustrating to watch - she clearly didn't want to part with anything. The parents should ask the children if they wanted to keep items. I can assure you that they would say 'yes' or 'no' quicker than what the parents would. Children grow-up quickly and seldom have any use for the toys they once treasured. It's the parents who wanted to hold on to things. It's hard but sometimes the best approach is to discard and throw out most things and then start again.

Yep, I watch this and How Clean is Your House and Hoarders to get in the mood to clean. My late husband laughed at me watching these shows and talking about stuff they do and coming home with disinfectant wipes that I saw someone using. Later, he admitted he loved the disinfectant wipes. I keep some in every room to make cleaning up a mess quick.

I love the combo of OCD cleaners assisting hoaders. It's therapeutic at least for me. 😊

[@SM-cb7rp]

only one person and only four days , impossible to clean these type of filthy houses

[@Andserkiel]

True collectors look after their items-keep them clean, display them to appreciate them or store them appropriately to preserve their value. When I moved from a flat to a single room I didn’t have room for everything so I kept my collectibles in their original boxes (if they came with them) and stored them neatly in cupboards and the loft until I moved to a bigger place again to be able to display them. Even if you don’t have them on view you can stack things up neatly or store in plastic tubs to prevent damage from dust and damp. Burying apparently valuable pieces underneath endless clutter and dirt does not make you a collector, that’s hoarding. The antique fridge could not be appreciated as it was just left to rot. If things are truly precious you take care of them.

[@vincenzoriccio4858]

So this guy David supposedly wants help but he is actually not willing to change a single thing of all that mess. Excuses over excuses over excuses...

[@mariellenerder7863]

There's a lot of shame in Davids actions and words, I feel like. The regular 'cleaners' have come such a long way, I'm so proud of them!

[@tangogent]

Due to his own lack of self-esteem, it was very hard for David to have the appropriate level of respect for David--or humility, for that matter.

[@SweetUniverse]

David bought a vintage refrigerator and ruined it. Now it's worthless. Who would want to buy that??

[@rochreech3173]

The funny thing is Ocd can also manifest itself as Hoarding right?

[@magalie3277]

Yes it can

[@eden356am4]

And if you have ocd and adhd...its pretty messed up

[@jb6712]

The people who clean excessively are actually diagnosed as OCC, at least here in the States. Britain might have a different way of diagnosing, but yes, OCD can include hoarding at different levels.

[@princessleia1122]

Obsessive Compulsive Hoarding and Obsessive Compulsive Cleaning are under the category of OCD. But one person can’t be both at the same time.

[@elizaestabrook3656]

Maybe the difference between collecting and hoarding is organization and neat displays of your collection?

[@jxavier3876]

I would say it is that collectors mostly keep stuff that actually makes has some value.

[@ArtyAntics]

Collectors value their items and curate their collection to reflect what they are most passionate about. As an ex hoarder I used to keep things because I was emotionally attached to them regardless of value or if they reflected my current identity. I decided not to collect things anymore and try to only keep what I use. I don’t see Glen as a collector because he isn’t concerned about the condition of the items, just that they are in his possession, which is a sign of hoarding.

This isn't a new episode at all---it's from 10 or 11 years ago. As far as I know, and I look for them all the time, there have been no new episodes or shows made of any kind of hoarding, or cleaning, or the combination, in at least 8 years.

[@themamabearlife3339]

[@JadeBlackWolf]

David is delusional! He needs to snap out of it. He acts like a child. There is collecting and then there is Hoarding and like it or not if things are not organized then it's just a tip.

[@graceaxisa4213]

David's smug arrogance throughout drove me nuts! And the way he casually just stood by, while Glen emptied his fridge, was so irritating. I am not entirely convinced that he truly comprehended just how dire his situation was. I only hope that, when he watched this episode in full and saw the reactions of the freezer removalists, he realised that he needs to really make changes in his life. I think Glen handled this very tricky situation perfectly.
