Calls for builder to have his own TV show
A local builder says he's bewildered, after being shot to fame on a popular television show.
Jimmy Whittle appeared on Channel 4's The Restoration Man last Thursday, where he amused viewers with his adventurous persona - and poignant back story - while renovating a family property in Lancaster.

A petition has since been launched, calling for Jimmy to replace architect George Clarke as the show's presenter!
