Like some of the biggest TV productions around the world, Room To Improve is no exception to the Covid-19 shutdown.

Dermot Bannon has revealed that he is 'unsure' if production on the new season will go ahead anytime soon, as building sites are currently closed due to the Covid-19 restrictions.

Speaking to Dermot & Dave this morning, Bannon revealed that producers are looking at the possibility of recording the show with strict social distancing in place when building sites reopen, but because there is such uncertainty as to when that will be, production of the show has come to a halt.

The RTE host also revealed that he was forced to suspend the recording of his second show 'Dermot Bannon's Dream Homes'  due to travel restrictions in Spain.

Room To Improve normally shoots in the summer time and airs on RTE One during their winter schedule.

Hit play to hear more from Dermot, including how how's getting on in lockdown and the amazing work he is doing with the Simon Community.
