Great show. It’s a pity Kim and Aggie don’t talk anymore.

[@vickiesmith3021]

Soooo awesome, I looove this show.

[@jeanross7430]

Me too thrse are episodes I have not sern befote.2024. Lovely Thank you for the uploads.

[@barbaramarkham4736]

Me too!! Love this show, best cleaning 🧽 show ever!

[@clareeastgate2753]

I went and scrubbed up and re-organised my spare bedroom after just watching a few episodes myself!😍

[@SkaterBlades]

Honestly these videos gave me the motivation to clean my room. I had a decades worth of junk piled up in a tiny room - I'd have to take huge steps to get from my door to my bed. My parents are away and i have a week off work so decided to finally do something. When throwing stuff out, i was brutal - unless it's something i use or wear now - it goes. 10 rubbish bags, a lot of hoovering, wiping, dusting and spraying and my bedroom is the tidiest I've seen it in years. For the past year since i started my first long time job i had a system where i just threw my clothes on the floor, then every Sunday picked them up, washed them and put them in the drawers. Now I've made sure to place a washing up basket and bin in my room so the mess doesn't build up again. Also looking at getting a book case as i have nowhere to put my books now, will probably have to rearrange furniture to fit that in though. Honestly, the difference is night and day and I'm still not done - been able to get to the wardrobe for the first time in years and there's a lot of childhood toys in there that I'm struggling to let go of for stupid sentimental reasons but I'll have to because i need the wardrobe for more clothes storage

[@kathleentherose]

The hoarding, is both physical and mental. These ladies, are great.

[@twsbibanghorn7343]

When I'm getting messy again, this is the perfect kick up the arse to get my house in order 😊

[@roberths7282]

The way Kim speaks to that little lad is gorgeous!!!

[@roguenrawwellness7682]

I am so happy to have found this channel I absolutely love this show. I watched it all the time as a kid. But I could not have found it at a better time. I have a huge job on my hands to declutter my apartment so my partner and I can move once we buy a house with no drama or hassle.

[@Sibernethy]

2:56 - The way Aggie jumps like that when she's proper grossed out by everything is funny and adorable XD

[@eleanorhogan8643]

I completely agree with you, I mean can you blame her?

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

This is one of the episodes I was waiting for. Thanks for the upload, and all that you’re doing to make episodes from the first three seasons in general more accessible. Those are the ones that aren’t as fresh in my memory whereas I feel like I’ve been through everything from seasons 4 to 7 enough already.

[@alphatube9338]

No problem at all, glad your enjoying them. This show has been very hard to find and have been searching years for them but I’ve managed to record almost all of the episodes from seasons 1-4 so far in good quality. Some of theses I don’t think have ever been on KZbin before.

[@tammyhall1008]

These Ladies are AMAZING🌸

[@Englishroserebecca]

I always love the end results. Brilliant.

[@annbow4064]

She cant clean her house but aggie thinks she will spray lavender on her ironing 😂.

[@Caroline-xk6ff]

I love these ladies but instead of cleaning quickly and efficiently, they teach people these silly little time consuming hints that no one is going to do!

[@Anonymous_Anon882]

@@Caroline-xk6ffyou obviously don’t know the benefits of lavender essential oil.

[@Helga-fe5xl]

I laughed at that too, why even own an iron in this mess??

[@eleanorhogan8643]

​@@Caroline-xk6ffAre you joking? I have used every single one of their tips and time consuming? It takes less than 5 seconds.

​@@Helga-fe5xlWell if you think that is crazy, Rosy the crossword addict owned cleaning gear!, even those were covered in dust.

While I am watching I am updating a word file with all the tips they shared. I am now at the beginning of the fifth page!

[@djlivvy46]

There is actually a book that went with the series!

[@julskechap]

Honestly these British cleaning shows have made me clean up more and i think its really made positive effect on me. Im from the other side of the world and I've only come across these British cleaning shows last year and only through KZbin.. I've gone through the Filth channel and seen Obsessive compulsive cleaners and grime fighters and now this show. I like all of it and id love to wach more. Can anyonehere from Uk share other similar cleaning shows? Thanks to the uploader.

[@djlivvy46]

There were episodes of both How Clean Is Your House? and Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners that were filmed in the USA, and Kim also filmed a show called Rude Awakenings in Canada.

[@djlivvy46]

If you have TikTok, my favourite CleanTok channels are Kaye Marie and Operation Niki.

[@emmsue1053]

Yikes, buy bin bags!! Look at the yard too.. Kids are always able to help & spoiling them teaches nothing for adulthood.

[@Rubyisgrowing]

This show makes me realise that some people must not put their bins out. Do the binmen think it’s an empty house, because there’s never anything to take, when actually the family that live there just don’t throw rubbish away

[@jarrodbarkley9061]

I love how Aggie says "grease" 😂😂

[@lilme7052]

She also says "Grrrrrot"

How can you own pets and not vacuum your house? It's common sense to do so daily , no wonder the place was riddled with fleas !

[@kreh1100]

Am I wrong or do the British not rinse the dirty soap off dishes with clean water after they are washed?? I have seen this many times and it drives me crazy. 😮

[@QoSwords]

I was brought up to wash up under running water only , even though its a massive waste and I still do, it also disgusts me when people wash dishes in a bowl of water and don't rinse (I'm from Kent, UK)

[@eleanorhogan8643]

I do rinse dirty soap off dishes with clean water after they are washed but lots of others either do not know or just do not.

[@emmsue1053]

We dont have double sinks but lots of us have the tap (faucet) running slowly and do rinse.

[@eleanorhogan8643]

@@emmsue1053 I am sure you do but some people are just lazy.

[@eleanorhogan8643]

@user-tz1zo6nu3n Ah right.

[@chapman1569]

First, the parents have to do their jobs, lead by example. Second, turn off the TV, attribute a chore to everyone and follow through. Third, It is the first time I see fleas on the show, today , 2024, we would more bed bugs infestations, and Kim , Aggie and the team would have to be careful not to bring those to their homes, They are Hell on earth!

This was in the 2000s

[@Soulfulshal1962]

Goodness me, 20 years old!! I remember this episode. Thank you for uploading 💖. I'll keep watching. Loved this programme. The Dad was an utter 🙄☹️... The house was so old fashioned. I felt for the Mum - not fair to blame the Boys as the kids learn by example - I think the parents were lacking in a few skills 😕, but not in making children.

[@3506Dodge]

These kinds of married working class families with children are becoming rare, especially in southern England.

[@Harry-fk5of]

why's that?

[@anneroy4560]

the bath was bad with mold all along the grouting ...

[@djlivvy46]

But at least the inside was clean, which is a vast improvement for this show!

[@lisestanley4330]

Please tell me why episode after episode Brits seem adverse to rinsing the soap off their dishes? I cannot imagine having a cup of tea with soap scum on the top.

[@helenbailey8419]

😂😂Paul Copley is hilarious narrating this

[@davidsangel]

These shows are edited and have health and safety checks. If there's a risk to anyone it wouldn't have been filmed. It's a tv show 20 years old.

[@dominikamarciniak6238]

Kim is such a flirt 😅! Love her🥰

[@rabbitcaroline666]

How about educating the kids?

[@jarrodbarkley9061]

Wow, what a transformation! That house was a literal garbage dump! See this is why I don't like the British way of doing laundry in the kitchen. You end up with clothes all over the kitchen.

[@djlivvy46]

British safety regulations do not permit washing machines to be installed in bathrooms, and our houses are so small that there is no other place to put them.

Why do they always shame and patronise the man? He's at work all day, she's not. My husband works 12 hour days and I look after the house and our 5 children. No way would I throw a heap of extra work at him when he got home

[@lisestanley4330]

Isn't that wonderful, He gets to come home and put his feet up while you work longer hours. It doesn't kill a man to do the supper dishes, or help bath little kids or throw some laundry in . Having raised six kids, blended family, I made it a point that just because I had a uterus and worked all day in the house that it was my job to continue on long after he got off work. I have never known a working woman to come home and expect to do nothing.

[@lilme7052]

​@@lisestanley4330exactly. Totally agree. Men are worshipped/feared in this way. It's not on.

[@Helga-fe5xl]

I think if the children are school age and the mum is not working but the dad is the mum should be doing most of the housework

[@Caroline-xk6ff]

@@lisestanley4330 "He gets to come home and put his feet up"... Yep! It's because of him that I have the luxury of staying home and raising my children myself. He spends 8/9 hours in a freezer 6 days a week, then most days working his after hours 2nd job (own business we're building up). My day is peanuts compared to his. Sundays I get to sleep in while he watches kids and does yard jobs

[@sharong8511]

It’s hardly fair to blame the filthy mess on the children! They’re at school all day so what exactly is she doing when she’s home alone? My Mom had four children too and she kept her home clean and tidy. We always had clean clothes to wear and clean sheets to sleep between and our kitchen never, ever looked like this. Deplorable conditions to have to live in. You can bet these boys were never allowed to have friends over after school or on weekends, nor were they ever taught how to keep their rooms and themselves clean and tidy.

[@luciliabravo7718]

I think the mom has ADHD? She can´t get organized, but she cleans the bath because it is a clear space. She needs an organizer after because it will all go back to the same mess.
