JOHANNA + DR CHRIS BROWN – AMAZING HOMES: PADDINGTON HAVEN
When master craftsman Boris Tosic and his wife, Naomi, stumbled across a former hat factory in Sydney’s Paddington, they knew they could turn it into something special. It turned out to be Boris’s final project, as he sadly passed away in 2023. Built with love and attention to detail, Boris’s swan song is a stunning and dramatic family home.
With five levels, a basement gym, sauna, cinema room and even a wood-panelled garage, the home was also built to house the owners’ extensive art collection. It’s such an amazing project that when local resident, Dr Chris Brown, found out we were heading here, he asked to come along…and he wasn’t disappointed. Join Johanna and Dr Chris as they check out this unforgettable home.

This is a trip you won’t want to miss!
DR HARRY – SAUSAGE DOG FESTIVAL
Who doesn’t love a sausage dog? This week, Dr Harry’s checking out the Dachshtober Longdog Festival in NSW’s Hunter Valley. Complete with fancy dress competitions and the famous Longdog Dash, this festival celebrates all things dachshund and it’s all in aid of a great cause.
One in four dachshunds suffer from Intervertebral Disc Disease, or IVDD, a crippling back condition. Funds raised at this event go to IVDD research and to helping those dogs affected by this horrific disease. Dr Harry’s here to find out more…and to spend a day celebrating this most amazing of dog breeds.

MELISSA – FANCY PLANTS
Vintage and antique stores are known for selling beautiful furniture and décor for the inside of your home…but have you ever heard of an antique store for your garden? Melissa’s visiting The Merchants Warehouse, in Sydney’s inner west, where some of the city’s most celebrated antique dealers sell their wares…but out the back you’ll find a unique nursery using antiques in a totally different way.
Rachel Gleeson first started her nursery, Ivy Alley, in a suburban lane…but the business got so big, she needed more space!
Now at The Merchant’s Warehouse, Rachel’s work is proof that almost anything can be used as a planter: from antique candelabras to old oil cans and even pianos. Melissa’s stopping by to admire Rachel’s work and to make some cute teacup planters inspired by it.
