Obsessive Compulsive Cleaners follows people who, by their own admission, cannot stop cleaning and carefully matches them with someone whose home is in dire need of a spring clean. Together these people with such contrasting compulsions explore how their different behavior affects their lives.
A quarter of adults in Britain are so obsessed with cleaning and tidying that they spend more than four years of their waking lives on household chores, with many feeling compelled to abide by strict regimes and rituals.
In programme nine, the first volunteer cleaner is 25-year-old office Manager Lauren from Dunstable. After a 13 hour day at work, she comes home to clean for over three hours every evening.
Her home is immaculate and she even cleans her fridge and its contents every single day. One of Laurens friends works in a pub, and when he visits, Lauren sprays him with anti-bacterial spray before he can enter the flat. Lauren loves bleach, and she knows when she has used enough when her eyes are stinging or her nose is running. Lauren hopes to reduce the amount of cleaning she does and at the same time help someone adopt her techniques.

These obsessive cleaners talked down to the hoarders badly. They've both got problems so neither is really better, but the hoarders were much more understanding and self-aware.
-
I wouldn’t go to someone’s house if the first thing they did was spray me and clean my shoes. I find that quite dehumanising.
-
‘Just because it’s disable, I shouldn’t get rid of it. I’ve seen toy story’ made me actually laugh. She’s so sweet, I hope she can fix her problem!
-
I wish Lauren and Emma had swapped Hoarders. Not only because I think Lauren deserves that toilet but Emma's sweetness would be good for Sarah. And I think John could use Lauren's bluntness
-
This show would be perfect if they actually had mental health experts working with both people, its hard to sit through and watch somone who legitimately would be helped so much by an expert having to struggle through an issue on their own.
-
It does annoy me that people think - OCD = cleaning. You can literally have OCD over everything and anything
-
Instead of laurel trying to force her to get rid of everything... she could of said "Your children aren't using these things but another child might need them and will love them. It's not all going to waste." Then she wouldn't feel so guilty getting rid of things.
-
The irony is the amount of health-harming chemicals used by the cleaners!! All those awful aerosol sprays and harsh cleaning products - their lungs must be really dodgy! That being said, I feel really sorry for both hoarders and OCD cleaners - it’s a very traumatic experience having someone come in and tell you to bin your stuff. That lady Sarah who had OCD and is a hoarder I felt was feeling really traumatised and could have done with a trained expert to help her rather than the cleaner Lauren being very judgemental.
-
Hoarding is a kind of OCD as well, because OCD is about any kind of compulsive behavior, cleaning just happens to be one of them.
-
Emma was so well mannered and kind even though she went well beyond she could cope - I rate her 👏
-
I had a colleague and dear friend at work who had OCD. I first noticed when he would set out his pens in either size or colour order - we used to joke about it. It became progressively worse to the point that he was getting in to work later and later (we could set our own times). It turned out he was having more and more difficulty leaving his house. Having to go back in to re-clean things. Unfortunately, it progressed so quickly and badly that he took his own life. He was the most wonderful gentle man and we lost him through it. This is a disorder that needs to be caught quickly, I just wish I had realised it earlier. RIP Will.

So much respect for Emma! What a lovely respectful young lady she is. I hope she can let a little bit go after this experience.
-
I´m very impressed how well Emma took that challenge. Other people, even without OCD, migth have run away. And she wasn´t even judgemental at all, just sweet and very helpful. And besides John´s stomach being made of stainless steel and fit for a circus career - he seems to be a very nice guy who must have loved his mum very much. He wrote a birthday card for her even though she had died many years ago. Never heard of that.
-
The amount of wipes these people use to clean is mind-blowing. 🤯 Just use a cloth and anti bacterial soln
-
"just because it's disabled why should I get rid of it? Have you ever seen Toy Story?" I am defeated lmfaoooo
-
Emma is so sweet, I’m amazed over the fact that she stayed calm in there. I wouldn’t be able to.
-
“Is that your hair?“ —- “Yes.“ —- “Why didn‘t you put it in the bin?” —- “Well, you could say that about everything.” 😅
-
being a hoarder is one things...shitting on your own walls is another...seriously, that's disgusting.
-
"I don't let people poop in my house" it must be so uncomfortable to visit her
-
What Lauren said about her having OCD but not being clean made me so angry... OCD isnt just the cleaning stereotype, especially if its appearing with another condition like depression.
