Here’s a run-down of who’s who on Interior Design Masters 2021: Let’s meet this year’s contestants, Micaela, Paul and co!
The 2020 series saw winner Cassie steal the show with her design efforts pipping semi-finalist Frank to the post. Now, there are a whole new host of designers ready to show the judges what they’ve got.
Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen features on the show again, as well as judge Michelle Ogundehin.
There are some changes to the show, though, in season 2, each week the designers will have to transform a commercial space. Viewers can expect drama, journeys of self-discovery and accusations of sabotage in this year’s Interior Design Masters competition!
Meet the Interior Design Masters 2021 contestants
Ready to break into the professional world of interior design are the following 10 contestants. Hailing from all over the country, from Yorkshire to London, Interior Design Masters is set to see a talented bunch go head to head this season.
Coming from all walks of life, film set designers, merchandisers, retail managers, upholsterers, NHS workers and more have made the cut for this year’s BBC Two show.
Amy
Interior style guru and designer, Amy describes herself as a “Yorkshire mum working on a dream”. She’s into “joyful, thoughtful design”.

Paul
Paul describes himself as a “wallcovering extraordinaire” on Instagram. Whipping out a photo of himself with Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen is a first on Interior Design Masters. As Paul writes in his IG bio, he’s into wallcoverings, but definitely isn’t a wallflower.

Interior Design Masters: Is Alan Carr in series 2?
Taking over from the first series’ presenter Fern Cotton, comedian Alan Carr is in tow to bring some entertainment to BBC Two.
The show is now titled Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr, so it’s safe to say that having him on board is pretty much a selling point for some viewers!
Alan will be hosting the 2021 show and can be seen guiding the designers along in their journey in preview clips. The show’s host, who is best known for his talk show, Chatty Man, is most likely going to keep morale high for the contestants with his hilarious sense of humour.
Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr: Air date
Interior Design Masters series 2 kicks off at 8 pm on BBC Two from Tuesday, February 2nd 2021.
The series is set to follow the same format as the 2020 show so viewers can expect eight episodes.
Catch up with Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr on the BBC iPlayer.
