Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners
S03E03 Caren & Linda and Jamie & Mick
Caren, a resident of Warrington, dedicates at least four hours daily to cleaning, and her cat is only permitted outdoors while on a leash. She encounters Linda and her son Matt, who have been living in filth for nine years and still have food items dating back to the 1990s. Another volunteer, Jamie from Somerset, suffers from OCD and is averse to any clutter, using so much bleach that it irritates his eyes; he also checks the door 16 times before leaving. Jamie meets Mick, living in a one-bedroom flat overflowing with mess and dirt, but persuading Mick to part with his cherished possessions proves to be a challenge.
