  • Sue has lived here for 40 years.

  • Well, Sue has six grandkids but they can't come to her house because it is that bad.

  • I feel like we should just go and explore because I have no idea what we're about to see.

  • Oh, sorry, I can't open the door.

  • Oh, crikey.

  • There is stuff everywhere.

  • Crikey.

  • Where do you put the shoes?

  • Oh, my goodness.

  • Oh, my God, the Queen.

  • I am so pleased to know that you are celebrating your 100th birthday.

  • 23rd of March, 2020.

  • Oh, my gosh.

  • She's must be her mum.

  • Oh, yeah.

  • Wow.

  • Oh, look, do you know what's sad? Is she's obviously got loads of grandkids.

  • How on earth do they even visit?

  • I would love to look after my grandchildren, but my house does not feel like home.

  • It wasn't the right time for me.

  • My mum was nearly 101 when she passed away.

  • Sue's mother died two years ago.

  • She fell ill when she was 80.

  • So Sue moved out of her home to become her full time carer.

  • I think I lived with mum for about 20 years and I did give up a lot for her.

  • I'm broken and that my house is broken.

  • We're gonna strip the entire house and display all of Sue's possessions in a humongous warehouse.

  • Sue must then decide what to keep and what to recycle, donate or sell for cash.

  • Oh, my gosh.

  • Oh, my gosh.

  • Oh, my gosh.

  • Oh, my God.

  • Over 300 boxes have been unpacked and laid out in sections so that Sue can clearly see how much of everything she had.

  • We counted 532 plastic carrier bags.

  • Over 205 hair rollers, 30 umbrellas, 18 unused toothbrushes, 17 old digital cameras and 443 pairs of shoes.

  • This is the biggest shoe collection we have ever seen.

  • I can see.

  • Of the 443 pairs of shoes, half have never been worn.

  • So how did you rock, baby?

  • The thing is somewhat cool what I'm doing right now.

  • Breaking the rules.

  • I I'll take these.

  • Others might say I am just assisting a lovely lady.

  • Let go of too many shoes.

  • I got three pairs of new shoes and a slipper.

  • Oh, wow, that's been all found.

  • Oh, that's so lovely, Sue.

  • She's always very smart lady.

  • You did a lot for your mum.

  • You did so much, Sue.

  • Your mum and dad would have wanted you to be so happy and you do deserve that.

  • One day. - No, one day is today you are gonna have. - Yeah.

  • No, I'm gonna change the rest of my life today then.

  • That is it. That is it, Sue.

  • This is the first day of the rest of your life, I promise you.

  • Alright.

  • Yeah.

  • Yeah I'm alright.

  • Oh, look at her.

  • So you're doing a catalog pose.

  • Brenda was a looker.

  • Seven days ago, grandmother Sue's home was in total disarray, bursting at the seams with clutter.

  • It left Sue feeling lost and overwhelmed and her daughters desperate to help

  • Come in.

  • Come in.

  • Come in, come in, Sue.

  • Oh my goodness.

  • Wow.

  • Walk in it.

  • That looks amazing.

  • Once so full of Sue's platter, you could barely walk through it.

  • Now, the hallway is a spacious and welcoming area.

  • That's so gorgeous.

  • Oh, look at this.

  • You can open that cupboard too if you want.

  • Come in.

  • To your living room, Sue.

  • So sweet.

  • The living room has gone from a dark and dingy dumping ground for not only Sue's stuff but also her late mother's to a light open area that can be enjoyed by her whole family.

  • Welcome to your bedroom, Sue.

  • Oh, wow.

  • Oh, it looks gorgeous.

  • After years of having to sleep amongst piles of clutter, Sue can finally have a peaceful night's sleep.

  • Thank you.

  • I can't take it all in.

  • It doesn't look like the same bed, does it?

  • I know.

  • It's beautiful.

  • Oh, you've got Nan. And that's Nan's lamp next to it.

  • It's the start of my new life, isn't it?

  • Save the rest of your life today. - Your whole life doing for everyone else and this is Sue's turn. - You can enjoy it now, can't you?

  • You've got to see the bathroom sometime.

  • You'll be thrilled.

Sue has lived here for 40 years.
