An Dubhlan: Episode 1

S04 E01 • Monday, Sep 18, 2017 • Sep 18 • 29m

Donnie Macleod and a team of local tradesmen attempt to renovate the community-run Lewis Retirement Centre in Stornoway in five days. With the local workforce giving their time and all of the building materials to this charitable project free of charge, the pressure is on to complete the work on time. Each week, over 1,500 islanders use the centre as a meeting place and recreational space but it's badly in need of updating and more space is required to satisfy the needs of the community organisations. In this programme, under the watchful eye of site manager John Campbell, they get to work. The roof is stripped back to the rafters, walls are knocked through, the old electrical cables are ripped out but the drains running through the back of the centre are a cause for concern and could even jeopardise the work.

Work inside is progressing, the roof has been stripped back but bad weather holds things up, and problems with tree roots at the back of the centre continues to hamper drainage work. However, the team find that camaraderie and good humour allows them to continue apace.

With the local workforce giving their time and all of the building materials to this charitable project free of charge, the pressure is on to complete the work on time. Each week, over fifteen hundred islanders use the centre as a meeting place and recreational space but it's badly in need of updating and more space is required to satisfy the needs of the community organisations. If all goes to plan, Donnie and the team will update this much-loved centre and create the extra space required. In this programme, Donnie and the team continue with the project. Wet weather is still hampering some of the trades but with the plumbers, joiners, electricians and plasterers busy inside and the tarring of the driveway underway outside, Donnie's certain they're on target to complete.

S04 E11 • Thursday, Mar 22, 2018 • Mar 22 • 42m

Donnie has to complete his series-long kitchen renovation project for the Caladh Trust in Benbecula. There was a lot to change: the cooker and food preparation tables were in the wrong place, and an unused cupboard needed to be removed to give some much needed space. Donnie has knocked down walls, moved sinks and nearly everything else in the kitchen! Now he has worktops and splashbacks to fit before he invites contributors from the series for tea and cake in the new kitchen. Donnie also visits a factory that manufactures splashback panels and takes a look round a new home in Sleat, Isle of Skye.
