Can't Stop, Won't Stop

Built around 3 amazing stories, which are all different but share a common theme, this programme will look into the detail of each case and their need to hoard. Featuring shocking interviews, we'll bring to life the depth of the cases and the characters involved. We'll reveal the full extent of their emotional, personal, and sometimes dangerous lifestyles and hoards.

In this programme we meet Britain's biggest gnome fan, Ron, who's home "gnome cottage" is full to the brim with 1725 gnomes.

And 33 year old James Brown from Nottingham who has amassed such a big collection of vacuum cleaners that he created his own museum.
