Dermot Bannon has revealed that around 400 people apply to be on Room To Improve every year.
The RTÉ show, which has aired for 11 series, has grown increasingly popular over the years, thanks to the celebrity architect’s rapport with his clients.
Speaking to the Irish Independent, Dermot explained, “We have different clients applying with different needs. We would have maybe 400 people applying for the show and we whittle it down.”
He continued, “It’s trying to get projects we haven’t done before. Every time the show comes for recommission, we get the same stuff. Picking them is the exciting bit.”
“What you’re doing is, you’re picking your work for the next year. It takes about a year to make the show and you’ve got to make sure you’re interested enough in the project,” he added.
The news comes after Dermot admitted that he’d love to take on Mrs Brown’s Boys creator Brendan O’Carroll as a client.Â
