Showhouse

Plot

Showhouse is an Irish makeover reality television series broadcast on RTÉ One. Presented by the interior architect Neville Knott, it is a creation of Vision Independent Productions, responsible for the popular television shows, The Restaurant and Colm and Jim-Jim's Home Run. The concept of the show is that two professional interior designers take over two newly built and identical houses and compete to create a winning interior design. They have approximately twelve weeks to plan their design, followed by six days spent working on the interior. The seventh day is launch day when the public are allowed access to vote on the winning design. There have thus far been four series. A number of once-off celebrity editions have been broadcast; Linda Martin and Kevin Sharkey featured in the one after series two, whilst series four was followed up by featuring the models Pamela Flood and Lisa Murphy in an episode which was broadcast on 29 December 2008.
