Homes Under the Hammer’s Martin Roberts announces new series that’s world’s away from beloved BBC show

MARTIN Roberts has announced a new series that's world's away from Homes Under the Hammer.

The BBC star took to social media to reveal the new venture to his fans.

Martin, 61, said he's making a documentary series that will follow his renovations on his new hotel and pub.

In a video update to Instagram, he explained: "As you will probably have gathered from the clips that we've been showing you, but what we've been doing over the last two years is filming a documentary and the first episode of that is now going to be released for you on YouTube.

"We've split it up into little sections and we're releasing those over the coming weeks. So look out for those. Head over to YouTube, my property channel on YouTube, which is Martin Roberts Property Tip Bits, and there's a section of that which is dedicated to the hotel.

"And we've called the series Oops! I Bought a Pub. Because that's currently how it feels. So look out for and search Oops! I Bought a Pub and you should find it."

Martin previously told The Sun how he snapped up the derelict Hendrewen Hotel and pub in the Rhondda Valley after suffering heart failure.

The telly favourite had mistaken his chest pains for long Covid and, by the time he was taken to hospital in April 2022, he had developed a deadly pericardial effusion.

The condition is a build-up of fluid in the structure around the heart which required surgery to be relieved.

Otherwise, the pressure it causes could have stopped his heart from pumping normally.

Martin said: “I’m now more motivated and desperate to get all the things done that I possibly can.

“I have no idea how much longer I’ve got but, whatever it is, I want to make a difference to people. If I accidentally speed up my demise in the process, it’s a risk I’m willing to take. I’ve dealt with nearly dying, what could be harder than that?”
