Long Beach, CA - Grime busters Kim Woodburn and Aggie MacKenzie offer their decidedly British point of view and candid filth analysis to the most disorganized homes as they produce a bit of spit and polish for America’s dirtiest dwellings in the series “How Clean Is Your House?” premiering Monday, September 6 at 11 PM (ET/PT) on LIFETIME Television.

“A huge hit with gays in London, it’s Absolutely Fabulous meets the Queer Eye for the Straight House,” said gay co-executive producer Jeff Collins. “The show has all the elements that gay audiences love: intense drama, drag queen humor and high camp!”

Based on the British hit makeover show of the same name, the series provides an American arena for the feather dusting, rubber glove wearing mavens of mess and destruction. Kim and Aggie wag their fingers, share their household tips and whip down-and-dirty hopeless homes into shape.

“It really is quite as simple as dirt is dirt,” Kim commented as she discussed the lack of differences in cleaning habits between men and women, Brits and Yanks, the young and the mature.

The only stunning difference in cleaning habits the dusting divas discovered exists between straight and gay men. “Gay men are much cleaner than straight men,” Aggie confided.

“Gay men are fastidiously clean,” added Kim, “spotlessly clean. They quite often put straight men to shame. We’ve found this to be true in Britain as well.”

Kim and Aggie descend on these neighborhood nightmares with their critical eye and provide bluntly honest commentary and comedic observations on the amazingly awful hidden horrors they uncover. “Leave it to the English to bring style and sophistication to housework,” Collins added. “When did you last see a maid in stiletto heels, a Chanel suit and a string of pearls? It’s like nothing you’ve ever seen on TV before. It will be a huge hit here in America with the gay and lesbian community!”
