As resident designer for GMTV’s This Morning, John is a familiar face on television and loved by housewives everywhere. He also appears on Better Homes, with Carol Vorderman. It was voted Britain’s most popular design programme, and a recent series was repeated twice this year.

Has also been pooling resources with Carol Yates. The result? A new design consultancy, ADC, offering fans the chance to set John loose on their own homes. “We want to make sure the design-hungry of Scotland get exactly what they want,” he says.
