Nick Knowles has told fans that the future of DIY SOS is currently uncertain after a social media user asked him to help out someone in need.
Nick, 59, has been hosting DIY SOS since 1999, and in that time, has transformed hundreds of homes from viewers with his team of builders.
DIY SOS originally looked to help viewers’ DIY projects that had gone wrong and not been finished, but the Big Build spin-off has seen the team enlists the help of local tradesmen, suppliers and the larger community to help deserving families.
However, when one fan got in touch with Nick on social media to highlight someone she felt was a deserving recipient of the Big Build treatment, he hinted the future of DIY SOS may be in trouble itself.
Discussing Angel Lynn, 21, who was paralysed after being kidnapped and falling out of a van, one fan tweeted: ‘@MrNickKnowles can’t DIY SOS help this worthy family?’
Nick replied, ‘ Sadly we are only commissioned by @BBCOne for one build this year for Children in Need and as yet not commissioned for any builds for next year.

‘But we know there is great need and we can help many more people and communities so we are hopeful of getting news soon.’
Fans quickly flooded to the comments to plead with the BBC to commission more of the beloved programme.
One wrote: ‘That’s so sad to hear Nick. A wonderful programme and exceptional service to communities around the country. I hope @BBCOne commission more soon!!’

Another commented: ‘🤞🤞 for next year , work the show and the whole team does to help people in difficult times is inspiring.’
‘I worked 3 days on Little Miracles and will be a travesty if they get rid of Diysos. Was amazing to be part of the show,’ added someone else.
Nick was absent from DIY SOS temporarily last year with Rhod Gilbert taking his place for one episode.
It came after it was reported that Knowles was holding talks with the BBC regarding his role as the main host of DIY SOS due to his appearance in a Shreddies TV advert.
This was said to have violated the BBC’s commercial agreements and guidelines, but a week later, the BBC announced that they had resolved the issue.
Earlier this summer, it was announced the DIY SOS team were set to head to Leeds for The Big Build BBC Children in Need Special with BBC Radio 2.
The project will see the team brand-new home for Leeds-based, Children in Need funded project, Getaway Girls, which aims to provide a much-needed safe space for vulnerable girls and young women.
