“We’re not changing it.” The Daniel O’Donnell episode of Room to Improve is going to get feisty

Daniel O'Donnell

“You can’t change this. No. No. There’s no point coming up here and throwing good money after bad… Listen here, gee whizz.”

Daniel O’Donnell might have a reputation as one of the friendliest and most gentle people in Ireland, but he’s about to show another side of himself to the nation this weekend.

And with good reason too.

Homeowners can often be precious about modifications being made to their humble abodes and wee Daniel didn’t take too kindly to Dermot Bannon getting all up in his grill and suggesting changes to the home Daniel shares with his wife Majella in Kincasslagh in west Donegal.

The O’Donnell’s home will feature in the first episode of a brand new series of Room to Improve this Sunday night and in a sneak peek at what’s to come, Daniel isn’t all that impressed with suggested changes to the master bedroom.

And don’t get him started on ‘secret’ doors and wall claddings.

Described as Dermot’s feistiest and most single-minded clients to date, the O’Donnells will feature in Room to Improve this Sunday, 18 February, at 9.30pm.
