Scotland's Home of The Year: Inside gorgeous Victorian farmhouse in Peterhead
Episode 2 of Scotland's Home of The Year sees the judges head to the North East and Northern Isles.
This week, the Scotland's Home of the Year judges travel to the North East and Northern Isles, and view three stunning properties including a modern build in Orkney, a Victorian farmhouse in Peterhead and a contemporary farm steading in Pitmedden, Aberdeenshire.
They start with Harbour View - a three-levelled house in Stromness, Orkney which, since 2019, has been home to Simon, Amanda and their cats Peaches and Daisy. With a modern Icelandic feel, the home is built on the site of a former oatcake factory in Stromness harbour and makes the most of its stunning sea views.
Next up is an early Victorian former farmhouse in Peterhead. Richmond House is home to painter and decorator Roy who moved into the house with his late wife, Julie, in 2019 with their dogs Arthur, Audrey and Ruby.
The couple's shared love of Art Deco style is evident throughout and Roy entered SHOTY as a tribute to his late wife who wanted to apply once the redesign of Richmond House was complete.
Finally, the judges head to Hilltop House on the outskirts of Pitmedden in rural Aberdeenshire, home to Chris, Jessica, their son Chase and dogs Enzo and Dino. The couple designed their bright, contemporary house around the original footprint of the farm steading, fusing mid-century and Californian cool style to create their dream home.
Now, the judges – interior designers Anna Campbell-Jones and Banjo Beale and architect Danny Campbell - must decide whether Harbour View, Richmond House or Hilltop House will represent the North East and the Northern Isles in the Scotland's Home of the Year grand final.
Let's take a look inside the stunning former farmhouse in Peterhead...

BBC The One Show paused as Alex Jones pays emotional tribute to 'friend'
The One Show host Alex Jones paid tribute to a friend at the start of Thursday's show The One Show host Alex Jones has delivered a heartfelt homage to a "friend" one year after their tragic death. During tonight's (June 5) episode of the popular BBC show, Alex and her colleague Roman Kemp delved into the day's top stories from the UK and beyond. The presenting duo also chatted with Clare Balding about an exciting summer for women's sports, and caught up with Michael Sheen and Downton Abbey's Hugh Bonneville and Tom Cullen, who are joining forces again for the BBC drama The Gold. At the start of the episode, Alex shared a touching tribute to Dr Michael Mosley, who died at the age of 67 after going missing while on holiday on the Greek island of Symi last June. "It's been a year since our friend Dr Michael Mosley sadly died. He had a long history with this show and one of his sons, who's also a doctor, shared with us how he hopes to continue his father's legacy," she remarked, reports the Express. A special segment was then aired, with Michael's son, Dr Jack Mosley, explaining how he planned to follow in his father's footsteps. "My dad was so passionate about healthy living, and his infectious enthusiasm was part of what made him so popular," Jack reflected. Discussing the aftermath of his father's death, Jack continued: "It was such a sudden thing when dad did pass away. It has been difficult for my siblings and I, my mum. The only positive I can think to come out of it is it has brought us closer together as a family, and that's something that he would have liked to see." Michael's spouse Clare, also a medic by profession, conveyed how the outpouring of public sympathy has provided her immense solace during this hard time. She then took cameras into the cupboard where Michael used to record his podcast, Just One Thing, and revealed that she "can't quite bring herself" to take down the podcast's poster. Now, Jack has written a book on weight loss medication and food nutrition, called Food Noise. He has worked closely with his mum, who has created over 50 healthy recipes for the book. Jack concluded: "To continue on some of these really important messages about healthy eating and lifestyle changes is something that was very important to my dad. I do want to continue that mission." Back in the BBC studio, Alex reflected: "It's hard to believe it's been a year... Our thoughts, of course, are with the whole family at this time." Beyond his podcast, Michael gained recognition for his roles in several health-focused TV programmes, including Trust Me, I'm A Doctor, The Truth about Exercise, and Lose a Stone in 21 Days.

BBC presenter Bryan Burnett is stepping back from broadcasting to undergo treatment for his "incredible rare" cancer. The Radio Scotland legend, 59, revealed on air this evening that he will be taking a break from his early evening Get It On show. Burnett told listeners he was diagnosed with appendiceal cancer after having his appendix removed earlier this year. He confirmed his condition is treatable and he hopes to make a full recovery. It will involve complex abdominal surgery and chemotherapy. Presenter Grant Stott will fill in while Burnett recovers. He told listeners in an emotional announcement during his live show on Thursday evening. He said: "I've experienced the most incredible care and kindness from the NHS staff who have been looking after me. "My surgeon is a Get it On listener so I know I'm in good hands. "I will really miss the music and the chat when I'm off but our listeners have given me hundreds of great playlists so that will keep me going over the next few months. "I want to take this opportunity to say a massive thank you to all my brilliant producers for all the hand holding and all the encouragement they've given me since they found out my news. "I'm sure they'll let you know how I'm doing over the next few weeks." The One Show in last minute shake-up as Hollywood star pulls out of show due to sudden illness Get it On is a popular music show which airs on BBC Radio Scotland from 18:00 on weekdays. The post-drive time show takes requests from listeners that respond to a theme set each show. Before, Burnett presented Brand New Country, a country music show on BBC Radio Scotland for 15 years. He has also worked for Radio Clyde and Northsound. Hayley Valentine, director BBC Scotland added: "Bryan is one of our most popular broadcasters on Radio Scotland and I know listeners will join us in wishing him well as he embarks on his treatment. "We look forward to welcoming him back to the Get it On studio once he's recovered." 2
