The Dengineers rips up the blueprints of traditional makeover programmes and instead presents an amazing, kid-focused transformation show. The Dengineers are an elite team dedicated to making out-of-this-world dens for deserving children. Children love creating their own private hideaways, either in the house, the backyard or even up a tree. The Dengineers travel throughout the UK making children’s den dreams become a reality – building wherever and whatever the child wants! Presenters Mark Wright (series 1 & 2), Joe Tracini (series 3) and Lauren Layfield lead the show, along with the build trio: Sege Rosella, builder extraordinaire and the mastermind behind some truly awe-inspiring worlds; Olga Skumial, TV and theatre set designer and creator of magical atmospheres; and Dee Saigal, digital genius and a technology queen. This visually exciting series aims to inspire, inform and educate. There are jaw-dropping surprises, celebrity twists, amazing feats of engineering and (of course!) the kids are in charge!
