Revamp your home with second-hand gems and raise money for good causes. EMMA JOHNSON learns about the 'reuse revolution'

- EMMA JOHNSON

No escaping your fitter enemy

EVERY new show needs a great opening. Something to forcefully grab the viewer's attention and maintain that vice-like grip for the next hour or so. The producers of Handcuffed: Last Pair Standing must have been rubbing their hands with glee when they saw the rough cut of this first episode: a glimpse of the countryside, a nice burst of birdsong, sounds of a man and a woman laughing and then... two people naked in a shower.
