Boy's Bedroom I Want My Own Room

Ever dreamed of a brand new room?

Of taking control and designing it yourself?

I Want My Own Room makes your designer dreams come true.

Got a room that needs tackling?

No problem.

Is foul wallpaper holding you back?

Referee!

Do you want a smashing space to show off to your friends?

Sorted!

Because this is I Want My Own Room,

the show that puts you in charge of designing the room of your dreams.

Meet football fanatics Lewis and Jake.

They're in love with the beautiful game

and take every opportunity to practise.

Skills!

Yeah! Yeah!

But they're divided over who supports the best team.

-Chelsea, Chelsea!

-Glory, glory Man United!

The lack of space in their bedroom

means Lewis has to practise his drums in the hall

which sends everyone round the bend.

While the boys wrestle with sharing a bedroom,

Mum keeps out of the way downstairs.

And Dad disappears to the spare room.

-BOTH:

-We've no space!

We want our own room!

Lewis and Jake's bedroom is bursting at the seams with stuff.

They need more space so we're going to convince Mum and Dad

to hand over the keys.

BOTH: Yeah! Ha ha!

They go pitchside to get some ideas.

Look how green it is. Don't you think it's just amazing?

And with just four days to transform two rooms,

everyone gets hands-on.

-COCKNEY ACCENT:

-Get this wallpaper off. We can win this game!

But what will they make of the finished results?

Da-da!

It's time for me to spring into action to help Jake and Lewis

find the space they need.

Hello?

Hello, anyone home?

Not having much luck with the front door.

-Hi, Lisa.

-Hello, boys.

Are we glad to see you/!

Hang on, that's why I couldn't get in through the front door!

You've got a drum kit in your front hall

and you're using the letterbox as a music stand.

It's not in my room as there's no space.

Right. Let's go and check this out.

Come on. Upstairs.

-Oh, I see what you mean about the lack of space.

-Yeah.

-I'm guessing you support different football teams.

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

-Who's who?

-I'm Chelsea.

-I'm Man U.

Does that cause friction between the two of you?

-Yeah, quite a lot.

-Yeah.

Have you got enough room for all your staff in the wardrobes?

This is completely full with Mum and Dad's gear.

Those pink slippers aren't yours?

No. They're Jake's!

Where's your stuff?

Well, exactly. We need more space.

So have you had any thoughts about what you can do to solve

the space problems?

Well, I want to move out of this room and go in another room.

Jake, show me where you want to go.

There's a lot of stuff in here.

Why do you really want to be in this room?

Well, one, I want my own room.

Two, I want my friends over.

Why can't you have your friends over at the moment?

Well, my mum doesn't want my friends wrecking all my brother's stuff.

Do you think we should have a word with your mum and dad about

-sorting out the stuff in here so you can use this room?

-Yeah.

So Lewis and Jake are fed up of sharing a bedroom with each other

and their space with Mum and Dad's stuff.

To show just how annoying it is,

we're going to invade their space and see how they like it.

-Oh, my goodness, look at this!

-Oh, wow!

In we go.

We've got the ironing basket here.

So if you could get the ironing

and pop it away in your cupboards, all right?

Right.

How are we going to fit anything in here?

Is that somebody else's stuff in your space?

It's not mine. I don't think it's Mum's, either.

-It looks like we've been overtaken.

-How do you think we feel?

I think we should get Mum and Dad to go to bed, don't you?

Night-night, everybody.

We can't get out unless we put all of this stuff somewhere,

so what are we going to do?

I think we'll have to put it back on the bed.

In piles, please.

We can pop that on the bed.

That got a bit cold!

We've got some boxes!

Attack!

So now you know what it feels like

when people are overtaking your space.

I think we get the point.

Mission accomplished.

Perfect!

So now you understand what Lewis and Jake are having to go through.

Well, you know what happens next.

Do you agree to let Jake and Lewis redesign your house in any way

they choose, to give them more space?

-I don't know.

-You might have to hand them over.

-It's too late to go back now.

-Ow!

-BOTH:

-Yeah! Ha ha!

Come on. Woo-hoo!

Lewis and Jake are now officially in charge of designing their rooms.

They'll get to call the shots with Mum and Dad

and both spaces need to be finished in just four days.

Ben Huckerby is an award-winning designer,

who's hoping his ideas will score a big hit with Lewis and Jake.

He's just the man to take their rooms from bottom of the league

into the premiership.

But first, he needs to get to grips with what

they want from their space.

And the boys have come prepared.

-I want a high bed.

-Trophy cabinet.

And a little desk that I can do my homework on.

It's in the shape of a football. It goes on your wall.

And beanbags.

Chelsea chants and messages on it.

Graffiti on the walls.

You given me a long list of things to do.

I think you can do it.

I'm glad you're confident

as I've got my work cut out with this.

The boys certainly know what they want

but fitting it all into the space could be a problem.

What I want you to do is plan your space.

The boys draw out where they want everything to go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

What's with all these lights? Easy on these lights.

It's going to look like Blackpool Illuminations if we're not careful!

The designs are taking shape but Ben wants to get

these football fans thinking about their favourite sport as designers.

So they're off to see how the professionals do it.

What do you reckon, guys?

It's good.

-I can't get over the scale of it. It's enormous, isn't it?

-I know.

And this is quite a small ground.

I can imagine Wembley would be absolutely enormous.

Right, guys. It's the I Want My Own Room cup final.

I want a good clean match. No dirty tactics.

-Are we ready? BOTH:

-Yeah.

MATCH OF THE DAY THEME TUNE

Right, you, move up the field. Come on, quickly!

Tackle him!

Ohhh! BLOWS WHISTLE

Oh!

Talking about pitch, look how green it is.

-Don't you think it's amazing? BOTH:

-Yeah.

The lines are absolutely perfect.

It's not just the pitch that's impressive.

The home team changing rooms are pretty cool, too.

Whoa! Brilliant!

You'll ask your mum to do this for you in the morning,

won't you, when you get up? Laying all your clothes out, like that.

Do you think this is a cool idea? Do you like this?

Yeah, they've all got their special station for everything they need.

The seat becomes storage so these lift up

and this is obviously somewhere the guys can put their kitbag.

The boys' creative juices are flowing

so they get snapping with the I Want My Own Room camera.

I'm taking one of my favourite player.

Managing a team is no easy task.

And players need to know who's boss.

Have you seen up there what's called a fines list?

-If any player forgets his boots, he gets fined £50.

-Really?

Lewis and Jake want to show their trophies

so they're checking out the club museum

and a football-shaped display cabinet has caught Lewis' eye.

It's quite a good idea, like a football cut in half.

But Jake's not so sure.

In a couple of years, they'd want to put more things in here

so they'd have to unscrew that, unscrew that,

unscrew that and unscrew one over there.

So it's really important you can change your trophies all the time?

-Yeah.

-So it's nothing that's sealed.

We brought them here and the list has got even longer,

so the pressure is definitely on.

Two boys, two teams, two very different rooms.

While Ben kicks off the designs,

it's time to get things started back at the house.

We need our rooms clearing out but first we'll warm you up.

We need some stretches.

MUSIC: "Eye Of The Tiger" by Survivor

Mum and Dad are going to need to put in a good performance

to clear both rooms of stuff.

And Lewis and Jake are determined to get the best out of them.

Come on, I want to see you sweat!

Come on, Mum, start getting stuck into the boxes now!

Get that in the box!

Winnie the Pooh? There's money in there.

Do you think Fabio Capello puts up with this at Wembley?

His players are actually bothered.

Right, come on, get it to the garage. We need another one.

-Come on!

-All right, we're going.

-Hurry up!

-I am.

That's Torres, Mum. Be careful with that.

Yes, be careful, he's worth £50 million!

With both rooms now clear, it's time to have a look at the photos

the boys took at Bradford City.

-What's this?

-It's a seat that's also a locker.

I'd quite like something like that in my room.

Tell Lisa about the thing that was at the side of it.

Fines list.

You get fined for forgetting things, like boots.

Let's hope Ben's designs don't see him fined by the boys.

First up is Lewis' room.

We've utilised the drum kit.

Now, in doing so, we've had to lose a bit of wardrobe.

We've got the chant wall which is going to have

different chants from Chelsea.

This will be the trophy stand.

There's loads of little surprises not on here that I've got in store.

So what do you think of it, Lewis?

I'm really excited about what it's going to be like when I walk in

for first time and see it.

Jake, what do you think of Lewis' room?

Well, mine will be better!

This room is about half the size of Lewis' room

so I've had to be really clever with the design.

We've got the bed here.

In the corner we've got a little desk.

And then we've got this locker storage situation going on down here.

Again, in this room,

we've got loads of really fun little bits going on.

So, Jake, what do you hope these secret little touches might be?

Graffiti on one of the walls.

-Graffiti, like actual, proper graffiti?

-Yeah.

I just like graffiti style.

While the family move out to stay with friends,

the I Want My Own Room team move in and get to work.

Transforming two spaces in just four days is a big challenge.

The boys want different designs, but with the same theme, football.

Will Ben get the results Lewis and Jake are looking for,

and can they finish on time?

It's day two and we've got two rooms to do in just three days.

So we really need everything to go smoothly.

Which it's not.

One member of the team's already stuck her foot in a pot of paint.

Argh! Oh, no!

Maybe I could dip this one and have two white trainers.

Brilliant(!)

Let's hope things improve as the family are on their way back

and the boys are getting used to being in control.

No slacking today, you two. I'm watching ya!

While the team work on Jake's room, the boys put

Mum and Dad to work, pulling up the carpet in Lewis' room.

We're in charge, remember?

But it seems their work isn't up to scratch.

-Hurry up, Mum!

-Come on!

-Faster!

-I'm working faster than Dad.

-See where Mum is compared to you?

-Yeah, I know.

-Mums multi-task, though, don't they?

-Yes.

-So they get jobs done quicker.

To make room for Lewis' drum kit,

some of the fitted wardrobes need to be taken down.

It's Demolition Dad to the rescue!

-I'd like to rip that one off!

-Oh!

-Well, thanks so much for your help(!)

-It's OK.

Oh, I've had enough of all this. I'll see you later.

Even the boys are starting to find the fun in DIY.

Wicked!

While inside, Mum and Dad and the team are working hard,

outside, we're working even harder.

Not!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Guys, what's going on? This is not a goalpost.

I need you to start painting this out, guys.

So I'm going to give this to Lisa

and then I want you to roll all this out completely white, OK?

You won't play football again, will you?

No, Dad, I promise.

-In fact, I'll confiscate the ball.

-Oh, no. Please!

-No!

There'll be no more of this. I'll see you in a bit.

That told us!

In Lewis' room, there's still a lot of wallpaper to come down.

And a bit of encouragement is needed.

We're going to go out second half, get at 'em,

take their legs out from underneath 'em.

Let's get this wallpaper off. We can win this game!

Let's go, go, go! Come on, team!

While Mum and Dad carry on, Ben gets the boys to have a go

at creating their very own football artwork.

I've got these two pieces of canvas here.

And I've got some spray paints.

First, they need to use spray paint to cover the canvasses

with a background colour.

Under Ben's supervision, and wearing the right equipment,

they get down to business.

What I want you to do, with another contrasting colour, is spray

some areas and then use disposable forks to pull the colour out

to create a scratchy theme, which will look really, really good.

With the backgrounds finished, on to the lettering.

I've got these 3-D letters.

You've obviously got Man U and you've got Chelsea.

The boys are using 3-D letters.

But you can use any material you like,

or cut them out of coloured card.

So, guys, now we've started to build, are you worried about anything?

Not really, just excited.

It's just really fun.

All that's left to do is stick it together.

With the artwork completed,

Ben needs to get Andy started on Lewis' football cabinet.

I'd like the wood to look like a football.

Now, it's not exactly the easiest thing to do.

I'm wanting the ball to look three-dimensional, not flat.

We can give it a go but the problem is we've got one shot

when we start cutting this.

It's just like taking a penalty! Absolutely no pressure, Andy.

It's the end of the day. It's been a very busy day.

How do you think things are going?

Very good, yeah. To say the least.

I'm really excited.

After today now, that's it.

You'll be banished out of the back garden.

You'll be banished out of most of the house.

How do you feel about not using your garden?

Mm, sad because we can't play on our trampoline or play football.

-But it'll be worth it? BOTH:

-Yeah!

-Definitely.

There's just two days left to get Lewis and Jake's rooms finished.

At such a crucial point, and with everything to play for,

Ben calls the team together before the family arrive.

OK, guys, start of day three. Loads to do.

Alan, we've got light switches. We've got lights.

Andy, wardrobe, locker.

Jay, you're doing everything today, mate!

Decorators, skirting boards, ceilings, wallpaper.

Right, guys, we need the best, best possible work out of everybody.

So, guys, are we going to do it?

ALL: Yes!

Are we going to get it done on time? ALL: Yeah!

I can't hear you. Louder!

The team are feeling inspired and ready for action,

but what will today have in store for Mum and Dad?

Right.

Oh, Lisa.

Mum, Dad, I wasn't entirely happy with yesterday's performance.

No-one tracked back. No-one defended.

You weren't committed in the tackle.

So you have extra special training.

All your stuff has gone up to your local football ground.

I want it in three piles. What you'll keep.

What you'll chuck. And what'll go to charity.

Oh. My. Word.

Where's all the stuff come from?

Look at all this mess.

'Ello, 'ello.

Is she not about?

-Let's check that.

-Let's put that back on there.

Here, stick it in your pocket.

We didn't get paid for doing any of it anyway, did we?

At the house, Ben's brought in an artist to make a key part

of the design for Jake's room.

-Morning, kElzO.

-Hi.

My secret weapon is finally here.

-This is going to be your canvas, basically.

-OK.

So Jake's really into his graffiti.

I'm thinking some sort of tag of Jake's name.

What I'll do is draw a little quick sketch first of everything

and then gradually build it up with colours.

Working with spray paints means working in a well-ventilated space.

Mask on, kElzO gets to work.

Mum and Dad have made a start with their stuff,

but can't help getting distracted.

OK, PC Redmond, are you ready?

Oh, yes!

While Mum and Dad are waging war,

Ben's got an idea from the changing rooms at Bradford City.

-Do you remember the fines list, guys?

-BOTH: Yeah.

What I want you to do is create your own list.

I'll leave you with Lisa. Crack on.

There are lots of fines for Mum and Dad.

Me Mum, she comes up to us and says, "Oh, your hair's not perfect."

And then she starts messing with it.

They switch the TV over when we're watching it.

-Er, Dad picks his nose.

-Euch!

Using coloured inks and a football stamp, the boys get creative.

Watch out, Mum and Dad, in two days' time, you'll be

seriously out of pocket.

Let's see how Mum and Dad are doing, sorting their stuff.

Yeah.

There's not exactly loads of sorting going on, is there?

We've been working really hard.

-It's virtually all gone.

-Really?

Yeah.

We've had a real hard time here.

-What are these?

-Moustaches.

-ITALIAN ACCENT:

-The pasta and the pizza. Risotto!

-And red wine!

-The red wine.

That's enough mucking about.

Mum and Dad needs to get a shift on.

-Oh, well done.

-It is. Job well done.

Well done.

The boxes are packed into the car to go back home,

where they'll be stored in the garage.

The next time that you come back to your house,

it's going to be to see your finished, actual proper rooms.

Hopefully I'll be awe-inspired.

And it'll be really, really good.

Really, really excited.

I feel, you know, when you've got that tingling

feeling inside you that you're so excited.

Do you think the I Want My Own Room team will be there late tonight?

-I think they will be, yeah.

-Yeah.

Working hard to get it perfect.

Expectations are high.

It's going to be a late night.

Rain, wind and more rain.

It's the morning of the final day and the pitch is flooded.

Thankfully, the team are inside, racing to get both rooms finished.

Will they do it?

# I want, I want My own room today!

# Room today! #

Morning!

Morning, Lisa.

Seriously, it's the last day. I thought we'd have things there.

-On the chant wall?

-Yeah.

Yep, we've got some vinyl lettering that'll arrive

later this afternoon.

We've still got the TV to sort out,

obviously the drum kit, the curtains and the blinds to go up.

-There's still quite a lot to do and that's just one of the rooms.

-Ah!

What about Jake's room? What needs doing in there?

Come on, I'll show you.

OK, so Jake's room. I mean, it is looking fabulous for what it is.

-But we've got nothing in it yet. We've got no bed.

-Yep.

-We've got no den under the bed.

-No.

-We've got no locker.

-No.

They're the finishing touches,

but they'll take time and we've got to do both rooms.

I'm sure that, if we all pull together, it'll all be OK.

It's the final push.

The team do pull together to get the finishing touches in place,

not a moment too soon, as the family are on their way back.

I'm really excited and hyped up.

I can't wait!

In fact, I've got a fantastic idea.

We'll put them in our room and we'll have their room!

-We'll have their rooms.

-No, Mum.

That looks fabulous.

Pleased with that.

Well, I gave Ben a really long list of what I want.

I'm most excited to see either the den part under the bed

or the graffiti wall.

Come on, boys, let's go!

Now, boys, it's very nearly time to see your brand-new rooms.

How are you feeling about that?

-BOTH:

-Really, really, really, really excited!

I suspect you're quite looking forward

to getting control of your house back from your children.

Oh, yes!

It's about time.

Mum and Dad have let you have control of their house

for four whole days.

And they've helped to build the rooms of your dreams.

So it's time now to hand the keys back.

-Yeah.

-Oh, yes, you've got to do it.

Let's have it.

-No!

-Boys, you've got to hand it back.

-Look, look!

-What?

-Hey!

Oh, no! Why'd you look over there?

Check it out. We can actually now go in through the front door

because there's no drum kit behind it!

Four days ago, Lewis and Jake were desperate for space.

They'd outgrown the bedroom they shared, causing them to argue.

Older brother Lewis had nowhere of his own to practise his drums.

He needed space to spread out and show off his passion for football.

Ben has transformed the bedroom Lewis shared with Jake

into a Chelsea fan's dream, with a blue and white colour scheme,

specially-made trophy cabinet and chant wall.

Jake was fed up of having nowhere to entertain his friends

and support Man United in peace.

He wanted to move into the spare room.

So Ben's transformed this compact space into a super-cool crib,

complete with an amazing graffiti wall,

locker storage space

and his very own football den.

But what will the boys make of their new rooms?

Three, two, one.

Da-da!

Whoa!

It's brilliant!

That's ace!

-That's me.

-That's you! Hey-hey!

That is brilliant.

Under here we've got your den, with your red

because you wanted red, obviously, because of Man U.

ALARM BLARES

Now, you're thinking, what is that?

That is an infrared alarm, so if somebody comes into your den,

you can hear them coming in!

Whoa!

And that is your locker, based on the one you saw at Bradford City.

Whoa!

So you can keep all your special stuff in there.

Brilliant, I love it!

I never, ever imagined that the spare room could look like this.

I'm a bit overwhelmed at what Ben's done and how he's done it.

It's just wonderful.

-Wow!

-Ahhh!

Ho-ho, ho ho ho! That's amazing!

That's fantastic.

I can't believe it. I cannot believe it.

Yesterday, Mum and Dad, I'm afraid that we discovered

all your most annoying habits and the boys made a list

and put the appropriate fines next to the offence.

Look at all them!

They're still trying to be in control, can you see?

Aye, yeah.

Fortunately, most of them belong to you!

I think it's really, really good and I think, Ben, you're just ace.

Oh, fantastic. Have I done the job properly?

-Yeah.

-Absolutely.

-Definitely.

Finally, what does Chelsea fan Lewis think of little brother

Jake's Man U-themed room?

This is amazing.

Whoa!

Jake's room has got the thumbs-up from Lewis,

but will he be as pleased with his own room?

Three, two, one.

Da-da!

Whoa!

This is amazing!

This is just brilliant!

Whoa!

That's exactly what I wanted.

-I love it.

-It's really cool with the Lewis bit.

I'm absolutely speechless.

# Carefree, wherever you may be We are the famous CFC! #

You've got the bed that goes with the mirrored wallpaper.

-Do want to have a look at that?

-Yeah, OK.

And the other thing is, you've got your music stand, obviously in blue.

Because last time you were playing your drums,

you had to use the letterbox as a music stand.

-Do you want to come down and have a quick go on drums?

-Yeah.

Wahey!

It's brilliant and I just love it.

-Shall we get Mum and Dad and Jake and see what they think?

-Yeah.

Oh, wow!

That's amazing!

There's stuff going on all over, isn't there? Again.

-It's...

-I'm crying!

Awww!

-Thanks.

-It's a pleasure.

-Thanks a lot.

No, no, it's a pleasure.

Whoa!

This is good.

Whoa!

This is really good.

But it's not better than mine.

Well, the I Want My Own Room team is definitely leaving with

a winner's medal.

Two rooms in just four days, giving Jake and Lewis

spaces that really reflect the fact they're football crazy.

Back of the net!

# It's coming home It's coming home

# It's coming Football's coming home! #

I'm going to be really, really proud, showing off to all my mates.

What else... Ohhh!

It's been transformed into something really, really special.

And I actually... I love it.
