Why did you apply?: "I applied for Interior Design Masters because I wanted a new creative adventure; I have always had a passion for interiors, and Interior Design Masters offered me the chance to see if I could cut the mustard as an interior designer...and to prove it's never too late to teach an old dog news tricks!"

What can we expect from this series?: "I feel series 6 has really raised the bar in terms of the talent of the designers and the designs we produced; also, the locations we visited were amazing!"

Interior Design Masters airs Thursdays at 8pm on BBC One from April 10.
