A HIT TV show is looking for residents in the district to take part in the production.
Channel 4 show Worst House on the Street is looking for participants in Maldon and Burnham.
The show will be filmed this month until June at the latest, documenting the renovation journeys of families, couples or friends.
The series is hosted by brother and sister property developers Scarlette and Stuart Douglas.
The aim of the show is to help people transform their homes without breaking the bank.
A spokesman for the show said: “On the show, we follow the renovation journeys of families, couples or friends from all over the UK, who have recently bought a 'fixer upper'.
“Those that take part, receive professional help and advice from our property experts, Stuart and Scarlette Douglas on the best way to renovate, style and add value to the home that they are doing up.
“At this stage in the process of making our programme, we are looking for participants that have either just purchased their home, or are close to completing, and about to begin their renovation process, which must be completed within our filming timeframe of March 2023 to May/June 2023."
