Woman Hasn't Cleaned Home In DECADES! | Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners Country House Rescue | Filth

This time the cleaners will tackle Tarbert House, a Georgian manor on the banks of the River Shannon in the West of Ireland.
Home to the Leslie family for 300 years, the current custodian is 83 year old widow, Ursula Leslie.
While the main rooms on the ground floor retain their original splendour, these days the upper two floors, where once Charlotte Bronte, Lord Kitchener and Winston Churchill all stayed, are little more than a dumping ground.

The reason Ursula is strong minded is also the fact she used to be a barrister, hence why she stands her ground.I think she should get a cleaner to come do the hard jobs ie scrubbing window's, cleaning ceilings.

[@itsreeah2663]

Wow, these cleaners did an amazing job. I’m also so proud of them for staying over. I also think the owner was quite nice in this episode, she tried to keep on top of things but it must’ve been difficult doing all of that on her own. It sort of makes sense her reluctance to throw things away, but I’m glad she did come around and help them clean

[@jrsmrs1]

Awful that her family dont help her, i bet they'll be there for the will though . I think its appalling what they expected two people to manage, their laziness for 40+ years .

[@t.c.6056]

Unbelievable how much Glen and Karen did struggle and how much they could change the house! And its a shame that the daughter just appeared at the end when all the work was done. Why she was'nt helping with cleaning out her own childhood house? It seemed to me as if they somehow abused the two helpers.

[@RevantuZ]

I think it's possibly because the point of the show is the two cleaners doing it to help them with their own obsession with cleanliness. It would defeat the purpose if they had too much help. That being said, I think it's sad that the daughter didn't help more to stop the house from getting into that state in the first place. But we don't know a thing about these peoples' private lives, I'm sure they have their reasons.

[@willm5032]

1: The owner def cleaned the lower floors of this place and really well- its a massive house and shes like 80, fair tbh. 2: Well done to these two people. Its a huge deal to get out og your comfort zone like they did, and tackling debilitating OCD like that must take a lot of willpower.

During a so called "declutter" after my beloved grandma's death, we got rid of many things without deep thinking and I regretted it. Fortunately, I kept the set of 96pc crystal drinking glasses! But last month I wanted to host a big dinner for my birthday with many guests and didn't have enough plates. Once again I remembered grandma's plates that ended up in the bin. Anything new I looked up was either too expensive or too modern. Luckily, I found a set of beautifully decorated vintage plates that matches the rest. And in good price as well. Yet, I could have saved this if I still had those we throwed away back then.

Glen and Karen make an amazing team. Sitting in my parents' house that they've owened for 40+ years, I look around and see clutter everywhere. But one cannot just throw away a lifetime of memories.

[@annasolovyeva1013]

Documents and small things are small and portable. It's a good idea to keep them organised in a box, folders, some sort of archive. No mess - it's just a nice box with a lid. Dense quality plastic boxes or cookie tins are good for that.

But, trust me, whenever Ursula passes away, the kids will come running for the inheritance. I hate such attitude. Karen and Glen did a marvellous job and had a lot of patience.
