George Clarke (Amazing Spaces) returns in The Restoration Man with a whole range of new families and brand new restoration projects. All 16 episodes from the second series feature in this 4 DVD disc set. Each episode features a family taking on the emotional and financial rollercoaster of restoring an old building - many of which are literally falling down or are listed with planning restrictions. In 2011 the 'Heritage at Risk Register' had a staggering 5 828 entries. However thanks to restoration projects this statistic is over half of what it was ten years ago.... But restoring old buildings isn't for the faint hearted and throughout the filming of the series George is on hand to offer advice and support to these restoration warriors wherever he can. Projects include the restoration of a water tower in Cheshire Victorian brickworks in Oxfordshire and a Yorkshire steam train water tower. Each building has a unique story to tell so George tries to uncover the architectural and historical significance of building.
