Homes Under the Hammer host left speechless by Cardiff property 'don't often see that'
Homes Under the Hammer host left speechless by Cardiff property 'don't often see that' Homes Under the Hammer host Martin Roberts was stunned as he toured a Welsh property Homes Under the Hammer host Martin Roberts was left speechless by a Cardiff property as he admitted, "You don't often see that". During Sunday's (August 17) episode of the BBC programme, Martin arrived at a six bedroom house in Roath, a small suburb of the Welsh capital city. The bay fronted three storey property had a guide price of £290,000, which instantly suggested at its poor condition. As he walked through the front door, Martin quickly noticed a problem, saying: "Well, I've just noticed that the external door there is not actually in existence, and this one looks pretty bad." He added: "I think we are definitely in the realms of a bit of a mess." Martin Roberts was left speechless on Sunday (Image: BBC) Article continues below Martin continued to walk through the hallway, before coming across the front lounge. However, he wasn't able to walk into the room as it was filled with blocks of wood, paper and scraps of wallpaper. The floor was also non-existent, with just wood beams across the space. "You kind of expect a floor, but perhaps we need to reposition our expectations and not take anything for granted," Martin said. "Dear, oh, dear. You don't often see that." A six bedroom property in Cardiff was up for sale (Image: BBC) The presenter then went into the rear lounge, which was in slightly better condition, followed by a third reception room, kitchen and downstairs bathroom. The space continued upstairs with a small bathroom and several spacious bedrooms that had some "lovely" touches. "I'm guessing there's been an issue with damp here that someone has started to tackle at some point," Martin then noted. The property was bought by couple and business partners Hannah and George, who snapped it up with a pre-auction offer of £335,000. The house was in a poor condition (Image: BBC) The pair revealed that they already had planning permission to turn the house into four two-bedroom flats with a budget of £230,000 and a timescale of seven months. However, when Martin returned one year and nine months later, the project still wasn't finished. "The contractor that we had to begin with had many jobs at the same time so it got quite challenging for him, so we had to swap out the build team at one point," George explained. Couple Hannah and George transformed the home (Image: BBC) Hannah then revealed that they also had a baby during the build, which further delayed proceedings, as well as their other businesses. Article continues below Despite the delays, returning estate agent Jason Phillips was stunned at the home's transformation, saying: "They've done an amazing job. I can't believe it, I had to check the door on the way in to make sure I was coming into the right house." He revealed that Hannah and George could easily achieve £200,000 to £220,000 for each flat. Homes Under the Hammer is available to stream on BBC iPlayer

I hope Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac saw what I did in Wrexham loss – they must spend again
I hope Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac saw what I did in Wrexham loss – they must spend again Wrexham's frailties were there for their Hollywood owners to see in person as they slumped to a 3-2 defeat at home to West Brom - and it will require them to spend again Our Wrexham man Liam had a similar expression to Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds as Wrexham shipped three at home (Image: Ryan Browne/Shutterstock) Wrexham's defensive frailties were laid bare for all to see as they suffered a 3-2 defeat at home to West Brom in the Championship on Saturday. As I caught a glimpse at the frustrated expression on the players' faces from my seat in the Macron Stand after the final whistle, it was hard not to wonder what the club's celebrity co-owners made of it all. Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac jetted in for Wrexham's first home game in the second tier for 43 years and the pair were all smiles as they walked round the pitch before kick off. After notching an impressive three promotions in a row, manager Phil Parkinson has been well-backed by the two actors during the summer transfer window. High profile signings like Welsh international trio Danny Ward, Kieffer Moore and Nathan Broadhead have been made to help Wrexham compete in the Championship. Broadhead became the latest player to break the club's transfer record when his arrival from Ipswich Town was announced on Thursday in a deal reportedly worth up £10million. Most of the talk I heard in the city centre pubs in the build-up to the match was about the quality the 27-year-old forward would bring to the table. In fact, such was the buzz surrounding the move that even Deadpool star Reynolds admitted to ITV that he felt nervous before meeting him. Despite Wrexham suffering a late collapse in their opening tie away at Southampton last week, the co-owners must therefore have been excited to see what their money had bought. The early signs were promising as the Red Dragons looked like a team capable of giving an established Championship side a decent contest. Moore's performances have been an early highlight for Wrexham since the striker joined from Sheffield United for £2m, with his physical presence suiting Parkinson's system down the ground. Article continues below Kieffer Moore's performances have been an early season highlight for Wrexham (Image: Adam Fradgley/West Brom via Getty) He was lively in the early stages against West Brom, with former Sheffield Wednesday man Josh Windass providing the perfect foil alongside him up front. However, Wrexham were dealt a blow in the 20th minute as Isaac Price put the away side in front after Tom Fellows beat James McClean for pace on the wing. Ten minutes later, they suffered another setback as Windass had to be taken off with a hamstring injury. It meant Reynolds and Mac got the chance to catch a proper glimpse of Broadhead in action after he was brought on to replace him. Wrexham equalised shortly before half time as Lewis O'Brien netted his first goal for the club after the Baggies failed to clear their lines. And Broadhead came agonisingly close to scoring on his debut just after the restart as he fired a chance wide. That was as good as it got for Parkinson's side as mistakes at the back marred the occasion. There were groans around me as former Leicester goalkeeper Ward was beaten at his near post by Jed Wallace, who restored West Brom's advantage in the 74th minute. Wrexham were left to rue some poor defending against West Brom (Image: Adam Fradgley/West Brom via Getty) Ward was a surprise inclusion for the league opener against Southampton as many supporters expected Wrexham's established No. 1, Arthur Okonkwo, to start in goal. The ex-Arsenal youngster enjoyed a record-breaking campaign last season, managing 19 league clean sheets as his team gained promotion from League One. Ward, meanwhile, came with less than rave reviews from his time at Leicester. Wrexham were undone again seven minutes later following some suspect defending, as Price grabbed his second, heading home a cross from Mikey Johnston. There were gleeful chants of "F*** Hollywood" from the away supporters as they savoured the moment. Substitute Sam Smith grabbed a late consolation, but Wrexham are without a point on the board after their opening two games. For all the owners' spending, one area their team is lacking experience is at the heart of defence. Summer signing Conor Coady is the one exception, given his Premier League pedigree.

Fans can watch the series with a £4.99 monthly plan, or get 12 months for the price of 10 by paying for a year upfront. But neither of the other two starting centre-backs on Saturday, Lewis Brunt and Max Cleworth, had played a single minute in the Championship before this season. Of course, it's still early days for Wrexham and with nine new faces, it was always going to take time for them to gel. Article continues below There have been flashes of their potential, particularly in attack, meaning there's no need to press the panic button. Parkinson has plenty of credit in the bank and switching Ward for Okonkwo may solve some issues. However, the biggest worry is in defence, and I hope Reynolds and Mac flew home realising the need to shore up that backline. The West Brom defeat was a harsh reminder that errors will be punished heavily in the Championship. This is by far the biggest step up that Wrexham have made on their meteoric rise. Despite their significant outlay to date, the Tinseltown duo will still need to fork out more, especially if they want to turn their long-term ambition of reaching the Premier League into a reality.

Wynne Evans makes shock return to BBC for first time since calling in lawyers over Strictly Come Dancing tour axe
WELSH opera singer Wynne Evans surprised BBC viewers when he made an unexpected appearance on the public broadcaster. The tenor, 53, was dropped from his BBC Wales radio show and the the Strictly Live Tour for making a crude remark at the Strictly Live Tour launch event. 4 Wynne Evans returned to the BBC alongside Joanna Page Credit: BBC 4 Wynne is taking the BBC to a tribunal over his axing from the Strictly tour Credit: PA 4 Wynne was also accused of touching dancing partner, Katya Jones Credit: PA Wynne has even lawyered up to take the corporation to a tribunal over his sacking, so it came as a surprise when he popped up on BBC One on Saturday evening. The Go Compare star was teamed up with actress Joanna Page on the quiz show in the episode which was likely recorded before his legal action. While putting in a valiant effort, the pair missed out on making it to the finals and bowed out in the penultimate round. Wynne even promoted his appearance ahead of it going to air by posting a selfie with Joanna on Instagram. "Tonight back on BBC One for Celebrity Pointless with Joanna," he captioned the post. But viewers watching at home were less than impressed seeing Wynne on their tellies. "Seriously??? Who the hell thought Wynne Evans appearing would be a good idea," wrote one person on X, formerly Twitter. Another added: "#PointlessCelebrities I thought this bloke was banned from the @bbc" And a third commented: "This could be Wynne Evans's last BBC appearance #pointlesscelebrities." Wynne had competed on the 20th anniversary series of the Strictly Come Dancing with professional dancer Katya Jones. Furious Wynne Evans reveals he's no longer speaking to Strictly's Katya Jones as he hits out at BBC In May, he announced he had been dropped by the BBC and would no longer present on BBC Radio Wales after apologising for using "inappropriate language" during the launch of the Strictly tour. Bosses then axed his travelogue with pal Joanna Page, All At Sea, after just one season. Wynne's apology came after it was reported he had aimed a sexual joke at one of the other professional dancers, Janette Manrara, a claim he had denied. He was also embroiled in a 'gropegate' scandal when he appeared to place an unsolicited hand on the stomach of pro partner Katya in last year's Strictly. More recently, Wynne revealed he had split from fiance Liz Brookes just weeks after getting engaged.
