The Big Interiors Battle line-up, judge, host and how to watch
FANS of interior design are being given a treat with a brand new Channel 4 show.
The Big Interiors Battle will see eight contestants do battle for an incredible prize.
What is The Big Interiors Battle?
Located in Capital & Centric’s high-end Eyewitness Works development in the heart of Sheffield, the show sees eight talented interior designers receive the keys to an apartment where they are challenged to transform a different room each week.
The hopefuls will then be judged on how well they do.
After judging, the designers will return to their apartments and use an electronic key-card to learn their fate.
If the light on their door goes green, they will remain in the running for another week.

However, each week one contestant’s door will turn red, indicating they have been locked out of the competition for good.
As Brits struggle to buy their own home due to the cost of living crisis, The Big Interiors Battle boasts one of the most coveted prizes on television.
The winner of the competition will then become the owner of their very own two-bedroom apartment within this historic development in South Yorkshire.
