DIY SOS: TV fans to see inside Matthew Cooper 's rebuilt Telford home
Television viewers were tonight getting their first look inside the home the DIY SOS team built for Telford youngster Matthew Cooper and his family.
The building crusaders come to the aid of 12-year-old Matthew, of Springfield Road, Trench, who had been stuck in hospital for three years after suffering cancer and a stroke.
The youngster’s headteacher and school friends were fundraising to get him home, so Nick Knowles and the team – with the help of hundreds of volunteers – set out to make Matthew’s home suitable for his complex medical needs.
The team also added some Doctor Who-inspired touches to the interior decoration – although even this band of miracle workers may have had to draw the line at making the property bigger on the inside.
Here's the moment crowds gathered for the big unveiling back in March:
