Sort Your Life Out Unpacked

Dilly Carter is joined by broadcaster Jeremy Vine, who tells her all about living with grown-up daughters, his previous life as a punk icon and a career that has left him sleeping in the spare room during the week.
Jeremy brings in three items from home for Dilly to unpack which reveal memories of his dad, the meaning behind the matching tattoo with his daughter, and why Agatha Christie is his queen!
He opens up about what he thinks the new generation could learn from his dad’s attitude to DIY, what he himself is like as a father, and what life is like now he has a personal trainer!
But as a book lover and author, can Dilly persuade Jeremy to clear those overflowing bookshelves?
Sort Your Life Out Unpacked is hosted by tidying expert Dilly Carter. In each episode, Dilly chats to a celebrity guest and unboxes three mystery objects from their home that reveal what is really important to them. At the end, Dilly asks her guest whether they are going to keep, donate or recycle any of the items and, along the way, we learn how to organise and sort our own lives out.

Dilly Carter is joined by Kitchen Disco diva and interior maximalist, Sophie Ellis-Bextor. She opens up about finding joy amongst chaos – her home is unashamedly filled with trinkets, curated clutter and she even encourages her children to draw on the wall.
Sophie brings in three items from home for Dilly to unpack. They find out why Sophie identifies with a Blythe doll, delve into a baby photo which was so much more than just a picture and discover the slogan from Sophie’s band in the 1990s that means something very different to her today.
From a singing career that started when she was 16 to a new-found Gen Z fanbase thanks to Saltburn, and five children along the way, Sophie reflects on how she’s learnt to embrace life’s chaotic journey without sacrificing her values.
Dilly is impressed by Sophie’s second-hand-buying ways, but can Dilly convince Sophie to delete any of those resale apps off her phone?

Dilly Carter is joined by another member of the Sort Your Life Out gang – Stacey Solomon! Stacey opens up about life at Pickle Cottage and how she stays on top of the chaos with five kids, plus chickens, ducks, dogs… and Joe Swash.
Stacey brings three items from home for Dilly to unpack – something Dilly can’t believe she’s kept from each of her children, a surprising hidden talent that no one saw coming and a cheeky nod to her and Joe’s celebrity doppelgängers… Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom.
Dilly and Stacey may know each other well, but what will Dilly find out? And what does Stacey spill about the Queen of Organisation?
Stacey is known for her decluttering magic – but how does she keep things under control when she insists on holding onto everything her fans send her?

Dilly Carter is joined by joined by broadcasting legend Lorraine Kelly.
Lorraine brings three special items for Dilly to unpack – each revealing a story from her life, from the teacup that marks the very start of her career to memories of her love of travel.
She also shares the joys of being a proud grandmum and reveals an unexpected passion: she’s a huge Star Trek fan.
Along the way, the pair chat about Lorraine’s fridge covered in travel magnets – much to Dilly’s horror – and share a laugh about that relatable habit of cleaning before the cleaners arrive. Lorraine admits organisation isn’t exactly her strong suit… but what will Dilly discover inside the boxes?

On this episode, Dilly Carter is joined by broadcaster and presenter Tyler West. He opens up about living with his partner, fellow Strictly and Race Across the World star Molly Rainford, the quirky routines that keep their household ticking, and the iconic way he takes the bins out.
Tyler brings three items from home for Dilly to unpack – a portal into his Team GB sporting career, a beautiful gift from his mum which takes pride of place at home with Molly and the real key to his heart (his torches).
