Shabaz Ali: Skulls, Sleep and Success

Shabaz Ali: Skulls, Sleep and Success

Dilly is joined by teacher turned social media sensation, Shabaz Ali. Known for his strong opinions about other people’s lavish houses, Shabaz famously disapproves of decanting items and it turns out he has thoughts on leopard print too! These are two of Dilly’s favourite things… so this episode is a juicy one! Shabaz brings three personal items for Dilly to unpack: something from his beloved studio set (his bed), a memento from his time working in a morgue and an object representing something he never thought he’d achieve. Along the way, Shabaz opens up about navigating life at full speed and what it’s like when your brain has all the tabs open! Will Dilly’s influence convince him that a decluttered (and yes, decanted) home is the secret to an organised mind? 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.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor: Disco, Dolls and the Dancefloor

Dilly Carter is joined by Kitchen Disco diva and interior maximalist, Sophie Ellis-Bextor.

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?

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?
