and designing it yourself? | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |

THEY SCREAM | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
# I want, want my own room | 0:00:12 | 0:00:15 | |
# I want, want my own room | 0:00:15 | 0:00:19 | |
# I want, want my own room | 0:00:19 | 0:00:24 | |
# I want, want my own room. # | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
Do you need somewhere to practise music | 0:00:31 | 0:00:33 | |
but you bedroom feels more like a library? | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
SOLO FROM "SWEET CHILD O' MINE" BY GUNS N'ROSES PLAYS | 0:00:36 | 0:00:39 | |
Shh! | 0:00:39 | 0:00:40 | |
Are you struggling with a space | 0:00:42 | 0:00:44 | |
that's too cramped to get creative in? | 0:00:44 | 0:00:46 | |
Well, help is at hand, because on I Want My Own Room, | 0:00:46 | 0:00:50 | |
you get complete freedom to design the space of your dreams. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:54 | |
So who's in need of our help today, then? | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
My name is Jaya and my bedroom's been taken over by alien space invaders... | 0:00:57 | 0:01:02 | |
THEY GRUNT AND SQUEAK | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
..otherwise known as my family. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
Jaya needs somewhere to play her instruments and write stories, | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
so we get Mum and Dad to give her control of the house. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:15 | |
BOTH: Yes! | 0:01:15 | 0:01:17 | |
A designer helps turn her dreams into reality. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
Maybe you could bring the books to life, some speech bubbles. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
They search for ideas on a trip to a recording studio. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:26 | |
-It's amazing, I love it! -And Mum and Dad are made to muck in! | 0:01:26 | 0:01:30 | |
You need to make sure it's right! | 0:01:30 | 0:01:32 | |
'But with just four days to finish, not everything goes to plan!' | 0:01:32 | 0:01:36 | |
Was grey one of Jaya's favourite colours? | 0:01:36 | 0:01:38 | |
10-year-old Jaya lives to be loud, but practising her trumpet, keyboard | 0:01:41 | 0:01:48 | |
and guitar in her room is taking its toll on the rest of the family. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:51 | |
Jaya, I'm on the phone! | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
ALL: Shh! | 0:02:01 | 0:02:02 | |
Jaya loves writing stories too, but her bedroom | 0:02:04 | 0:02:08 | |
doubles as a salon for Mum, a library for Dad and a playground | 0:02:08 | 0:02:13 | |
for brother Roshan, so there's not much space left to call her own. | 0:02:13 | 0:02:16 | |
I need to step in and help Jaya get her space back. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
-Hello, Jaya. -Hi, come on in! -Thank you. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
-So, where shall we go first? -Let's go to my bedroom! | 0:02:26 | 0:02:29 | |
Go on, then, lead the way! | 0:02:29 | 0:02:31 | |
-It seems really nice. It's nice and big, isn't it? -Yeah, definitely. | 0:02:34 | 0:02:39 | |
So what's the problem? | 0:02:39 | 0:02:40 | |
The thing is, whenever I play my musical instruments, | 0:02:40 | 0:02:43 | |
everyone tells me to shush. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:44 | |
My mum uses that hairdryer every single morning when I'm asleep. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:49 | |
So hang on a minute - | 0:02:49 | 0:02:50 | |
your mum complains about you being noisy on a trumpet | 0:02:50 | 0:02:54 | |
when she's in here every morning drying her hair with a hairdryer? | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
And my dad always reads the books that are in the cupboards | 0:02:58 | 0:03:03 | |
and I have no idea what they even are. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:05 | |
What are your dad's books doing in your cupboards? | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
And there's a vacuum under here. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
Oh, there is actually a vacuum cleaner under your bed. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:15 | |
What's it doing under your bed? | 0:03:15 | 0:03:16 | |
I don't know, there's space downstairs to store it. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:19 | |
Right, I think some serious rearranging needs to be done | 0:03:19 | 0:03:22 | |
in this house. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:23 | |
OK, so this is my mum and dad's room. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:25 | |
There must be a plug socket for a hairdryer in here. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Oh, there's one down here. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:31 | |
-There's a bit of storage going on in here, isn't there? -Loads. -Yes. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
OK. So, what's this? | 0:03:35 | 0:03:37 | |
It's my dad's study. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
There's loads of room for more books in here. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:41 | |
-All he needs to do is stick a couple of shelves up. Could he do that? -No. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:45 | |
The last time he did DIY, he got slightly electrocuted. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:50 | |
So Jaya can't practise her music or write her stories in peace, | 0:03:50 | 0:03:54 | |
and we've decided it's time she got her room back, | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
but are Mum and Dad ready to sing to her tune? | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
Mum and Dad, you are invading Jaya's space in more ways than one. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
What have you got to say for yourselves? | 0:04:04 | 0:04:07 | |
It is the biggest room in the house. The biggest bedroom. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
And she is a small person, what does she need so much space for? | 0:04:10 | 0:04:13 | |
I've been collecting these great books for years. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
All that is completely WRONG. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
Does Jaya go into your rooms | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
and do things in your rooms or store her stuff in your rooms? | 0:04:19 | 0:04:22 | |
BOTH: Well... | 0:04:22 | 0:04:24 | |
-Probably not, actually. -Mm, no. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
(There you go.) | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
So, Mum and Dad, just to prove to you the problems that Jaya | 0:04:29 | 0:04:33 | |
has in her room, we thought we'd get you to do your work on Jaya's bed, | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
cos that's the only chill-out space she has, at the same time, | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
-we'll use the space too, won't we? -Yeah. -And we'll see how you like it. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
So, Dad, we've got your laptop and phone, you can do some work, | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
-there you go. -Thank you very much. | 0:04:47 | 0:04:48 | |
Mum, if you'd like to do some marking for school. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
-Take a seat on the bed next to each other. -No problem. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:54 | |
-Jaya, there's your trumpet, you sit down next to Mum. -Thanks. | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
There we go. It's a bit of a squash! Oh, what's that? | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
That's interesting. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:02 | |
# I was born # Under a wand'rin' star... # | 0:05:02 | 0:05:07 | |
Do you want to do the guitar for a bit? I'll do the trumpet. Brilliant. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
Now then, how do I hold this? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
My little finger there and that one there? | 0:05:13 | 0:05:15 | |
-Quieter, please. -Can YOU be quiet? We're trying to do our music. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
I'm trying to do some work here, Jaya! | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
All right, Jaya, you win. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-You win. -Did we just hear the words "You win"? -I think so! -Ha! | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
So, Mum and Dad, now you understand what the problem is. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
Right, Mum and Dad, it's time to give Jaya control. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
Here are the keys to your house. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:42 | |
Do you agree to let Jaya redesign your house | 0:05:42 | 0:05:45 | |
in any way she chooses to give her more space? | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
DRUM ROLL | 0:05:48 | 0:05:51 | |
You know it makes sense. Come on. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
-OK. -CHEERING | 0:05:55 | 0:05:57 | |
So Jaya is now officially in charge of getting the room she wants. | 0:05:57 | 0:06:02 | |
She'll get to tell Mum and Dad what to do, | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
and it all needs to be finished in just four days. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
To help Jaya transform her room is Michelle Ackerley, | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
an experienced artist | 0:06:12 | 0:06:13 | |
and a dab hand at turning boring places into unique spaces. | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
She's just the person to give Jaya the room she wants. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
Tell me ideally what you'd like to use this room for. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:25 | |
Well, I'm really into music, so maybe we could have a mini music area. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
I really like writing stories, reading stories. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
It would help. If I went to find my guitar, | 0:06:33 | 0:06:35 | |
I could look in my music space. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
If I wanted to look for maybe a book, I could look in my writing space. | 0:06:37 | 0:06:41 | |
It's dividing things up in the room and making it more organised. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
How do your parents feel about you practising your instruments? | 0:06:45 | 0:06:49 | |
Well, my dad sometimes says, | 0:06:49 | 0:06:51 | |
"Don't practise it now. I'm on the phone. It's very important." | 0:06:51 | 0:06:54 | |
What do you think the solution would be to that problem? | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
Well, maybe soundproofed walls. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
That would really help, cos no-one would be able to hear | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
downstairs or upstairs what I'm actually playing. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
I see. That's a fantastic idea. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:08 | |
Next, Michelle needs to know what ideas Jaya has | 0:07:08 | 0:07:10 | |
for decorating her room. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
-Does that look right to you? -Yeah, great! | 0:07:13 | 0:07:15 | |
What other things could we draw? | 0:07:15 | 0:07:17 | |
Maybe musical instruments and some microphones, some headphones... | 0:07:17 | 0:07:23 | |
-Whereabouts would these feature? -Could be dotted around everywhere. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:27 | |
Go on, then, let's have a look. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:28 | |
'Jaya has come up with some fantastic ideas.' | 0:07:28 | 0:07:31 | |
-This room is going to be amazing. -I can feel it. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
I'm pleased with what we've done. I can't wait to see what's next. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:38 | |
Time for Michelle to take Jaya on a design field trip. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:42 | |
Your idea of soundproofing an area of your room is a really good one, | 0:07:42 | 0:07:46 | |
but what else is important? | 0:07:46 | 0:07:48 | |
Well, I don't want any boring colours in the area, I want funky colours. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
This recording studio brings both Jaya's ideas together in one place, | 0:07:54 | 0:07:59 | |
funky design AND somewhere to practise music. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
I really like the lights. They hang down | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
and they've got stuff over the light and the lampshades are shiny. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
And what do you think of the colours in here? | 0:08:10 | 0:08:13 | |
I'd prefer something a bit more wild and big and bold. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
Now, you don't have a seating area in your room. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:21 | |
Is that something that you would like to see in your bedroom? | 0:08:21 | 0:08:25 | |
Yeah, in my little chillax area instead of just the bed. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:28 | |
Before we see the rest of the studios, I've brought a camera, | 0:08:28 | 0:08:32 | |
and I'd like you to take pictures of anything that you like the look of. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:36 | |
It's not just about the music. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:39 | |
There are lots of fantastic design features which Jaya's picked up on. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
'It's nice, big, bold and very imaginative.' | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
It's really, really creative. And funky, really funky. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:51 | |
The only issue is her room's a lot smaller than this, | 0:08:51 | 0:08:55 | |
so I'm not really sure how I'm going to fit it all in. | 0:08:55 | 0:08:58 | |
The difference with this room is it's got its own recording booth. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
But we've got to think about how it would work with your bedroom. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:07 | |
So if I take this... | 0:09:07 | 0:09:09 | |
Stand on the star for me | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
and have a go at playing the guitar. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:14 | |
You need, obviously, space to move around. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:17 | |
-Does it feel all right? -Feels great. | 0:09:22 | 0:09:24 | |
So, this is another chill-out room, | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
very, very different to the other ones we looked at. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
-What do you think of this room? -Amazing. I love it! | 0:09:30 | 0:09:32 | |
What kind of features really stand out to you in this room? | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
I love the side bits. They look like windows. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
Jaya's really clear about what she does and doesn't like, | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
which is brilliant for me. The next step now is to finalise the design. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
I've got loads of ideas, and I can't wait to put them in my room. | 0:09:47 | 0:09:50 | |
It's going to be fantastic. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:52 | |
And once Michelle's polished up the design, | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
Jaya puts everyone to work back at the house. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
Mum and Dad, it's the moment you have been waiting for. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:05 | |
Here are your I Want My Own Room T-shirt and boiler suits. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:09 | |
And your first job is to clear out my whole entire room. | 0:10:09 | 0:10:14 | |
-Jaya is in control. Go on. Vamoose. Go and get your kit on. -Shoo-shoo! -OK. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:18 | |
-Do you like being in control? -Yeah, definitely, it's great. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
Right, Mum and Dad, I'm the conductor for this project | 0:10:26 | 0:10:29 | |
so, start tidying. | 0:10:29 | 0:10:32 | |
Right, start on that top shelf. Dad, you can do the bottom. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:36 | |
Excuse me! | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
-Can I have a break now? -Are you going to actually help us at all? | 0:10:38 | 0:10:42 | |
No, I'm the conductor. You work. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:44 | |
Excuse me! | 0:10:49 | 0:10:50 | |
Sorry, sorry, yes. That goes in there. OK. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
I can't wait until it is finished. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
Only half of that stuff is really mine. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
CLATTER! | 0:11:01 | 0:11:02 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
The rest is all everyone else's in the family. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:10 | |
And Mum and Dad will be sorting through all that stuff later, | 0:11:10 | 0:11:14 | |
deciding what to do keep, what to recycle and what to give to charity. | 0:11:14 | 0:11:19 | |
Meanwhile, Michelle has her eye on some of the last bits of furniture. | 0:11:20 | 0:11:24 | |
I'd like you to take some of this furniture to the shed | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
because me and Jane might be able to reuse it in our design. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
And with the bedroom empty, it's time to see Jaya's final design. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:36 | |
How does it feel to be in your room without any of your stuff in it? | 0:11:36 | 0:11:39 | |
It feels quite weird. | 0:11:39 | 0:11:40 | |
-Tell me about your design trip. -You took lots of pictures. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:43 | |
-Yeah, I took loads. -And what did you find? | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
I liked the lights they had there and I took | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
a picture of one of them and I really loved the panels on the walls. | 0:11:48 | 0:11:52 | |
Bold and bright. That's one of my favourite colours. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:55 | |
-Are we going to fit them all into the room? -Well, I have a plan. | 0:11:55 | 0:11:59 | |
-What do you think? -It looks amazing. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:03 | |
In this corner of the room, we've got your making music area. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:07 | |
You're going to have a designated writing area in the room | 0:12:07 | 0:12:10 | |
but you also wanted to have an area where you can chill out, relax, | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
so that is going to be by the window so it's nice and light, | 0:12:14 | 0:12:17 | |
you can get the sunlight coming in and just chill out. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
This is better. Everything is more spaced out. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:24 | |
That's good. Sounds like a success so far. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:27 | |
But there is a long way to go yet. | 0:12:27 | 0:12:29 | |
With the family sleeping elsewhere for now, how does Jaya feel at the end of day one? | 0:12:29 | 0:12:34 | |
I'm so excited and I can't wait to see what is going to be next. | 0:12:34 | 0:12:38 | |
So much has already happened but there's so much already to come. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
Fingers crossed everything will go as I planned it. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:45 | |
Thanks, everyone. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
It's no laughing matter! | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
You and the rest of the family invade Jaya's space | 0:12:53 | 0:12:57 | |
so she can't write stories or make music. | 0:12:57 | 0:12:59 | |
We've convinced Mum and Dad to hand over the house keys | 0:12:59 | 0:13:02 | |
and Jaya is transforming her bedroom into a haven of creativity. | 0:13:02 | 0:13:06 | |
But have the I Want My Own Room team got what it takes | 0:13:06 | 0:13:09 | |
to make Jaya happy with the results? | 0:13:09 | 0:13:12 | |
It's day two... | 0:13:13 | 0:13:15 | |
We're raring to go. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
..and while Jaya gets ready, | 0:13:17 | 0:13:19 | |
Michelle and the team make a start on transforming her room. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
So, Andy, this is the floor plan. We've got Jaya's writing area here. | 0:13:22 | 0:13:27 | |
It means we need to get rid of the wardrobe unit | 0:13:27 | 0:13:31 | |
so it will be a nice, big space. These need to go first. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |
To make more space for Jaya's music area, we have removed the radiator | 0:13:45 | 0:13:50 | |
that was here, repositioned it here, and now, I have a slight problem. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:55 | |
Before we can start painting this wall, we need to replaster it | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
or fill it because this wall is incredibly uneven. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:02 | |
And that's not the only problem. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
-We'll have to put plaster in that. -But won't plaster take ages to dry? | 0:14:04 | 0:14:08 | |
We'd be able to put a top coat on today if we filled that. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:12 | |
OK, maybe that is a job Jaya might like to give Mum and Dad. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:16 | |
-Excited? -Yeah, really excited. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:20 | |
I really can't wait for today so I can boss you about once again. | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
Oh, dear. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
Dad, you're going to fill in the holes with Andy. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:28 | |
Mum, you're going to be doing painting with Michelle. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:31 | |
Try and make sure you don't go over the edges. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:35 | |
-Michelle, how do you think Mum's doing? -I think she is doing very well, actually. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
This is where I'm having my bed. | 0:14:39 | 0:14:41 | |
It's where I'm going to sleep so you need to make sure it is right. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:45 | |
I definitely feel in control already. | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
Dad, you need to get this right, it's my writing area. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:50 | |
Clue's in the name! | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
Let me have a go. I am sure I could do a much better job than you can do. | 0:14:52 | 0:14:56 | |
Go on, then, show us how it is done. | 0:14:56 | 0:14:58 | |
See, this is how you do it. | 0:15:00 | 0:15:02 | |
With Mum and Dad left to carry out Jaya's strict instructions, | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
Michelle wants to help bring her new writing area to life. | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
Take a look at these. Read out what this says. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
I...love...this...silly...book. | 0:15:11 | 0:15:17 | |
-They're pretty cool, aren't they? -Yeah. -Check this out. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
It's actually a wall magnet. I typed these. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:23 | |
We're going to get creative. You're going to draw your own. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:26 | |
So, it would help me if I wrote a really imaginative story. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:30 | |
Exactly. Give me two of your favourite words. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:32 | |
-I'll do funfair and you can do the park. -OK. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
Why not have a go at making your own funky fridge magnets? | 0:15:36 | 0:15:39 | |
Jaya has chosen words but you could include anything in your design. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:43 | |
Why do you like these two words? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
You can find a lot of stories and inspiration from these places. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:49 | |
Think about the places that inspire you | 0:15:49 | 0:15:51 | |
and get creative with paints, pens, stickers and glitter. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
All we have to do now is stick the magnets on the back. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:59 | |
Everything you need is in your local craft shop or online. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:03 | |
Let's take a look. They look great. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:06 | |
Before Michelle sticks the magnet up in Jaya's room, she wants to make sure they work. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:11 | |
-They look great. -Definitely. -They'll look good in your room. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:15 | |
Meanwhile, Mum and Dad still can't get it into their heads that this is Jaya's room. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:21 | |
Since I'm doing all this work, this should be my room. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
I think you've got no chance. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
-What do you think, so far? -I love the paint on the walls. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
-Do you like the colour? -Yes. It is just how I wanted it. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
So, that will be my room there, my bed will be in there. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
Dad... Dad, that's MY area for making MY music. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:43 | |
I'm feeling really good about the design and the layout | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
of where everything is going and I think it really suits the room. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:50 | |
At the end of another exciting day, Jaya's room has really begun | 0:16:50 | 0:16:54 | |
to take shape but how is she feeling about being in control? | 0:16:54 | 0:16:57 | |
SNORING My dad is asleep now so I am going to have to speak a bit louder. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:02 | |
I seem wide awake now but it was really tiring. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:06 | |
My mum and dad are differently tired out. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
I got to boss them about and do whatever I wanted. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:12 | |
It's day three. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
I don't think we are as far along as we should be because the old walls | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
needed patching up before the new walls could go in. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
There is an awful lot to do and not much time left to do it in. | 0:17:22 | 0:17:25 | |
Now Michelle knows exactly what Jaya wants, | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
she has decided to keep the final look of the room secret. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:32 | |
-Jaya, come on. -'While Jaya tries to wake up...' -I'm tired. | 0:17:37 | 0:17:42 | |
'I'm allowed in to see her design ideas take shape.' | 0:17:42 | 0:17:45 | |
So, I guess I'm standing in what will be Jaya's music practice area. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:49 | |
When we went on the design trip to the recording studio, | 0:17:49 | 0:17:54 | |
Jaya liked the theme of the windows | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
so we're trying to copy that theme. | 0:17:56 | 0:17:58 | |
There is going to be a panel that goes across the window | 0:17:58 | 0:18:00 | |
and it's going to have curved edges cut out of it. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:04 | |
Michelle, I really get the green. It's a fab, bright colour. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:08 | |
-But was grey one of Jaya's favourite colours? -No. | 0:18:08 | 0:18:11 | |
It's actually a special kind of paint. It is magnetic paint. We're going to paint over this | 0:18:11 | 0:18:15 | |
in a nice bright colour, | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
and then, hopefully, we'll be able to stick the magnets on. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:21 | |
That is brilliant. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
I think Michelle has a pretty good idea of what I like and don't like. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:32 | |
But one thing Mum and Dad won't like is the surprise I have waiting for them back at the house. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:37 | |
Oh, not so fast, Mum and Dad. Jaya, you are allowed to stay. | 0:18:38 | 0:18:42 | |
Come and stand next to me. You might recognise all this stuff | 0:18:42 | 0:18:44 | |
as being the gubbins that has come out of Jaya's room. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:48 | |
You need to take it to the village hall, | 0:18:48 | 0:18:51 | |
to sort out what you're going to keep, what you are going to recycle | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |
and what is going to go to charity. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:56 | |
And you're going to have to find a new home for it all. See ya! | 0:18:56 | 0:18:59 | |
That's right. Because all this stuff is yours, Mum and Dad, | 0:18:59 | 0:19:03 | |
not Jaya's. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:05 | |
Michelle has a plan to spruce up the furniture from Jaya's bedroom, too. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:09 | |
I was thinking of reusing some of it. What do you think of the desk? | 0:19:09 | 0:19:12 | |
It could be put in my writing area for writing stories. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
So, because you're really into your books and reading stories, | 0:19:15 | 0:19:18 | |
I thought you guys could crack on with making some shelves | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
and then you can paint them. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:24 | |
So once the wood from Jaya's old wardrobe is drilled, sawn, | 0:19:24 | 0:19:27 | |
and screwed, it's ready to paint. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:32 | |
-How do you think it is all going? -I think it's going really well. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
We got a lot done in the time we've had. | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
What do you think your friends will think of your new room? | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
I think they will be quite amazed, actually. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
I'm not sure Mum and Dad are amazed by all the stuff they need to sort. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:50 | |
-That wasn't all in her room, surely. -This isn't my book. -That's mine. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:57 | |
-I didn't ever read it. -I don't think anyone read that book. | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
Oh, A Short History of the Russian Revolution. When did you read that? | 0:20:00 | 0:20:05 | |
-20 years ago. -Yeah, right. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
You were just bored. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
-Did you really collect stamps as well as read those books? -I did! | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
These are very valuable! | 0:20:15 | 0:20:17 | |
-They're not going in the box! -Don't be too hasty, Mum! | 0:20:17 | 0:20:21 | |
A stamp found by a boy in his Grandma's attic | 0:20:21 | 0:20:24 | |
-sold for more than £1 million last year! First class. -Nothing off. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:29 | |
What's it going to mean to you to have your own space back? | 0:20:29 | 0:20:33 | |
I'll be able to write good stories, and be really crazy and imaginative. | 0:20:33 | 0:20:38 | |
-I think we're about done, don't you? -Yeah, definitely. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:41 | |
-Shall we check on Mum and Dad, see how they're getting on? -Let's go! | 0:20:41 | 0:20:46 | |
Ah-ha! No, that's definitely got to be kept, but... | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
This must go - stick your head out the window, it'll dry it quicker. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
Just because yours looks a mess, I don't want mine to, thank you! | 0:20:54 | 0:20:57 | |
It's all a mess to Jaya - none of this is hers! | 0:20:57 | 0:21:00 | |
BOTH: # Ta-da! # | 0:21:00 | 0:21:02 | |
I didn't realise there was actually this much! | 0:21:06 | 0:21:08 | |
How long has it all been in there? | 0:21:08 | 0:21:10 | |
Eight or nine years, to be honest! | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
-You probably don't know what half of the books are! -I do, I was... | 0:21:13 | 0:21:18 | |
-No, it needs to be hidden away. -It can't be anywhere near my room. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
Once everything's sorted, it's taken to its new home. | 0:21:21 | 0:21:25 | |
Sorting the stuff from Jaya's room was a really good chance | 0:21:25 | 0:21:28 | |
to get rid of loads of things I've asked you to get rid of for ages! | 0:21:28 | 0:21:32 | |
I have managed to keep a few behind, which I will keep in my own study. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:37 | |
And while Dad prepares to make room for the books he's keeping, | 0:21:37 | 0:21:40 | |
Michelle gives me a worrying update. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:44 | |
There's loads of things to do - loads of things to do, still. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:48 | |
-It's going to be a late night, tonight. -A very late night, yeah. | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
-Want to put the kettle on? -Yeah. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:54 | |
Good luck! | 0:21:54 | 0:21:55 | |
As the team work long into the night, | 0:21:55 | 0:21:57 | |
trying to get things finished, Jaya can hardly contain her excitement. | 0:21:57 | 0:22:02 | |
I'm bubbling up like a bottle of pop ready to explode! | 0:22:02 | 0:22:06 | |
I just can't wait until tomorrow! | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
It seems like Christmas, or my birthday! I'm so happy. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
It's going to be amazing. I can have my own space back! | 0:22:14 | 0:22:18 | |
The final day. While some members of the household are happily relaxing, | 0:22:21 | 0:22:25 | |
the rest of the team have got an awful lot to do. | 0:22:25 | 0:22:29 | |
I better hop to it and give them a hand! | 0:22:29 | 0:22:32 | |
Once Michelle's finished her 24-carat decorating job inside, | 0:22:32 | 0:22:36 | |
I get handy with a roller outside. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:39 | |
This is Jaya's shelf from her bedroom, | 0:22:41 | 0:22:44 | |
and we'll revamp it, paint it white, | 0:22:44 | 0:22:46 | |
and do the shelves across the centre in the colours Jaya chose yesterday. | 0:22:46 | 0:22:50 | |
-Are they the colours we painted the little shelves? -Exactly, yeah. | 0:22:50 | 0:22:54 | |
There was a lot of furniture in Jaya's room, | 0:22:54 | 0:22:56 | |
so it's good we're getting to use some of it. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
Now Jaya has somewhere much more colourful to put her books, | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
I need to check just how soundproof her music area will be. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:07 | |
SILENCE | 0:23:07 | 0:23:11 | |
Lisa, there's no glass there. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
SHE MOUTHS | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
All right, but there is now! | 0:23:22 | 0:23:25 | |
So these are for Jaya's chill-out area. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
She wanted cushions in a funky shape, and she mentioned plectrums, | 0:23:30 | 0:23:34 | |
which is one of these... | 0:23:34 | 0:23:37 | |
which you use to strum a guitar. | 0:23:37 | 0:23:39 | |
So I've created a template, extra large, and drawn it onto a piece | 0:23:39 | 0:23:43 | |
of fabric, and I'm cutting these out, | 0:23:43 | 0:23:46 | |
and I'll sew them into plectrum cushions. | 0:23:46 | 0:23:49 | |
And while the cat's away... | 0:23:49 | 0:23:51 | |
MUSIC: "Sweet Child O' Mine" by Guns and Roses | 0:23:51 | 0:23:56 | |
Lisa, what are you doing?! | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
I was just checking that the guitar was...all right. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:02 | |
It's going on Jaya's wall, and we need it pristine, | 0:24:02 | 0:24:05 | |
not have you rocking out, so I'll take that. And you can take that. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:10 | |
'Sorry, Michelle. You're right. There's no time to mess about.' | 0:24:11 | 0:24:15 | |
The family are on their way, and Jaya is itching to see her new room. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:19 | |
It may look like total chaos, but if we don't get this room finished, | 0:24:19 | 0:24:24 | |
it'll be curtains for the I Want My Own Room team. | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
And they're here, ready or not! | 0:24:28 | 0:24:31 | |
I don't know who's more excited - me or Jaya! | 0:24:32 | 0:24:35 | |
It's been a lot of hard work designing my room and deciding | 0:24:35 | 0:24:38 | |
what I wanted, but we got there in the end! | 0:24:38 | 0:24:42 | |
So while the last few bits are placed into position, | 0:24:42 | 0:24:45 | |
it's time to tell us what she thinks. | 0:24:45 | 0:24:48 | |
-What's it been like waiting so long? -Obviously, it all comes down to this. | 0:24:48 | 0:24:53 | |
-So you have to do the honours - key back to Mum and Dad. -Here you are. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:59 | |
Thank you very much! | 0:24:59 | 0:25:02 | |
Right, Mum, open the door - let's go in and have a look. | 0:25:02 | 0:25:05 | |
Four days ago, Jaya couldn't practise her music, or write stories | 0:25:05 | 0:25:10 | |
in peace, because her family were gatecrashing her creative space. | 0:25:10 | 0:25:14 | |
The only option left was for Jaya to get the space back on her own terms, | 0:25:14 | 0:25:19 | |
and with the I Want My Own Room team's help, she's done just that. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:23 | |
Jaya now has her very own sound-booth, | 0:25:23 | 0:25:26 | |
to make as much noise in as she likes. | 0:25:26 | 0:25:29 | |
There's a dedicated story-writing area and magnetic word wall. | 0:25:29 | 0:25:33 | |
And the latest book by her favourite author Jacqueline Wilson | 0:25:33 | 0:25:38 | |
has a big surprise inside. Her musical designs are centre stage. | 0:25:38 | 0:25:42 | |
There's also a chill-out zone, | 0:25:42 | 0:25:44 | |
and bed with benefits - a wardrobe underneath! | 0:25:44 | 0:25:48 | |
But all the hard work will mean nothing | 0:25:48 | 0:25:51 | |
without Jaya's final seal of approval. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
Three, two, one... | 0:25:54 | 0:25:57 | |
SHE SCREAMS AND LAUGHS | 0:25:57 | 0:26:00 | |
Cool! Wow! That is amazing! It's better than I imagined! | 0:26:01 | 0:26:07 | |
-Wow, this is cool! -They change colour! -It's way cool! | 0:26:09 | 0:26:15 | |
-Magnets! -And there's the one you made. -I love the speech bubbles. | 0:26:16 | 0:26:21 | |
-Have you got that book? -No. -Do you want to have a look? -OK... | 0:26:22 | 0:26:27 | |
"To Jaya, lots of love, Jacqueline Wil..." Whoa! | 0:26:29 | 0:26:34 | |
-Yeah, it's actually signed. -Cool! | 0:26:34 | 0:26:38 | |
Well, we did it, but what will Mum and Dad think? | 0:26:38 | 0:26:42 | |
Wow! | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
That's amazing! | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
-Do you like it? -Fantastic! | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
-Wow...! -They got it signed! Thank you SO much for everything! | 0:26:51 | 0:26:57 | |
HE LAUGHS | 0:26:59 | 0:27:02 | |
I love it - I'm totally speechless | 0:27:02 | 0:27:04 | |
and out of words! It's so amazing. | 0:27:04 | 0:27:08 | |
-Can't take it all in, can you? -No. | 0:27:08 | 0:27:10 | |
She can practise her trumpet without me shouting at her, | 0:27:10 | 0:27:14 | |
and everyone's happy. | 0:27:14 | 0:27:16 | |
That was more of a challenge than we thought it'd be, | 0:27:18 | 0:27:22 | |
but the team pulled it off, and now we've given Jaya back her own space | 0:27:22 | 0:27:27 | |
to make the most of her talents as a writer and musician. | 0:27:27 | 0:27:30 | |
It's not a mish-mash any more, it's all nice and organised, | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
and zoned, and it's so amazing. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 |
