Nick Knowles
Nick is a very recognisable face on British TV and has been the host of DIY SOS ever since it launched in 1999. However, viewers were concerned in 2021 that he might not return to the show after a dispute between a Shreddies advert in which he featured and the BBC. Nick missed out on the Children In Need special following the rule break, but fans will be pleased to hear he's back for the new series.
Nick said of the new episodes: "You can expect the usual camaraderie with lots of emotion and laughter. So many people turned out to help communities and families in need despite their own challenges and suppliers have been so generous – It's been really life affirming."
