Amazon.co.uk Review
In How Clean is Your House Kim Woodburn and Aggie Mackenzie "The Nation's Dream Cleaning Team" continue the mission of their popular Channel 4 television series--to educate, inform and generally browbeat us all into cleaning properly. The double act (dubbed "Trinny and Susannah on Domestos" by one pundit) need little by way of introduction. Kim, who wears pearls and sports the type of ridiculous Beehive-cum-wasp-nest hairstyle that hasn't been seen on the box since Bet Lynch graced the Rovers Return, is the bruiser. To ladle on the 70s TV trivia, Woodburn is Bodie to the finicky wee Scot Mackenzie's Doyle--if The Professionals had been a pair of hygiene-obsessed middle-aged women and forgone the pleasures of driving Ford Capris through cardboard boxes choosing instead to give the u-bend a good going over.

Here Kim and Aggie do actually include a series of Crime Files; factoids of horrifying information, usually about "beastly bacteria", which are destined to make you at least question, briefly, the wisdom of opting to leave your dishes soaking overnight after that joyously wine, port and a whisky or seven-for-the-road-fuelled dinner party. "When you let dirty plates sit for a long time the food contributes nutrients for bacteria, so they will rapidly multiply". It's therefore best, they suggest, to "wash all dirty dishes in hot soapy water as soon as possible." (Paper plates are, of course, always an option.) Divided into chapters that cover each room and full of astonishing top tips, such as using a banana skin to dust plants ("the dust" apparently "clings to the skin and the juice nourishes the leaves") it will have you on the way to meeting their notoriously exacting standards. But, a note on the back of the jacket kindly reminds us to give this volume "a dust every now and then" and under no circumstance use it "as a coaster or a dinner tray." --Travis Elborough
Book Description
'Your home is your castle, it's where you go and cry, where you have happiness, where you cuddle your family, where your pet greets you. But if you have to step over piles of muck, how is that going to make you feel?'
Dubbed 'Trinny and Susannah on Domestos', Kim Woodburn and Aggie MacKenzie are the presenters of the smash hit TV series How Clean is Your House? and they are very passionate about cleaning.
The book combines Kim and Aggie's wonderful sense of fun with their brilliant practical tips and advice. Sweeping through the house room by room, they tackle all manner of cleaning challenges, from streaky windows to smelly fridges. Each chapter is packed with tools of the trade, star tips, ‘don’t do that’s’, step-by-steps and ‘before’s and after’s’. There's even a 'filth questionnaire' to determine your cleanly status - and Aggie's famous rotas for the cleaning-impaired!
Full colour throughout and perfect for Christmas - no home should be without one.
