From writing children's books to presenting radio shows from his garden, here are a few things you might not know about Martin Roberts...
Property expert and TV presenter Martin Roberts has become a household favourite over the last 15 years, having given his expert opinion on BBC hit series, Homes Under The Hammer, since 2003.
But while he might have made a career out of advising other people on how to make money out of their properties, there's a lot more to the TV star than renovating houses.
Here are 7 things you might not know about Homes Under The Hammer presenter Martin Roberts...
1. He's no stranger to reality TV
As well as appearing on Celebrity Masterchef in 2010, Martin, who was born in Warrington, has also appeared on BBC game shows Pointless and Hole one the Wall. Martin also caused quite a stir when he appeared on ITV's I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here in 2016.
The presenter was a late arrival to the series, entering the camp after the rest of the group had already settled in to jungle life. But despite this, he soon got stuck in by taking part in Bushtucker trials, before being eliminated in a double eviction alongside footballer Wayne Bridge after 15 days.

2. He's a DIY fanatic
When he's not busy advising people on all things property related, Martin likes nothing more than indulging in a spot of DIY to help him unwind. In fact, the TV presenter loves a bit of home improvement so much that he often solves listeners' DIY dilemmas on BBC Radio 2.
3. He's got some quirky home features
Martin lives with his wife Kirsty and their two children in a little village just outside Bath and, of course, being a property expert means that his home is stunning. Not only does the TV presenter have an island in the middle of his country-style kitchen, complete with a built-in fish tank, but he also has a climbing wall in the garden and a radio studio built into a tree house.
4. He has his own charity
Martin is an avid campaigner for child wellbeing and has his own charity, the Martin Roberts Foundation. The charity works directly with the NSPCC and Childline to offer educational and well being initiatives for children. They also aim to fundraise enough money to be able to give a free copy of his book, Sadsville, to every 8 and 9 year-old in the country in the hope it will help children know how to reach out for support.
5. He's not just an expert in property
As well as offering advice on all things to do with property and DIY, Martin also is a bit of an expert when it comes to travel. He started his TV career on Wish You Were Here, a hit BBC travel show that he presented alongside TV legend Judith Chalmers.
6. Martin Roberts writes children's books
Not content with just being at the helm of one of the most popular daytime TV shows on our screens, Martin is also an author. As well as writing a best-selling book called 'Making Money From Property' he's also written a series of books for children called The Villes. Each story follows main character, Herman, who visits different villages on a red double-decker bus where he finds problems that need solving.
7. He holds training seminars
While you've probably learnt a thing or two about renovating properties from watching Martin on TV, you can also learn a few tricks of the trade from one of his three-day property training seminars. Martin promises to help you become successful in the property world by training you in everything from how to buy at auction to the skills you need for property negotiation.
