Martin Roberts catches up on ambitious plans to redevelop the site of a former school in Ebbw Vale in Wales, while Dion Dublin talks to a first-time developer planning to extend up and out at a semi in Bloxwich in the West Midlands. And Lucy Alexander meets a developer wanting to convert a Grade II listed building in Milton Regis in Kent into two homes. All three developments were bought at auction by developers hoping to turn a profit.

A run-down bungalow in Biggin Hill with huge potential, a centuries-old cottage in a beautiful part of Devon and an end terrace crying out for an upstairs bathroom are all sold under the hammer. Martin, Lucy and Dion meet the new owners and hear their plans.
