What happens

Scotland's Home of the Year (often abbreviated to SHOTY) is a Scottish reality competition television series. The programme is based on the format of the Norwegian series Årets Hjem, originally created by Nordisk Film TV Denmark and distributed by Banijay. The first series, consisting of seven 30-minute episodes and an hour-long finale, premiered on BBC Scotland on 10 April 2019 as a primetime fixture in the schedule. The programme was renewed for a fourth series, which began filming in June 2021 and aired in 2022. It was then renewed for a fifth series, which began filming in June 2022 and aired 15 May 2023 with the final broadcast 26 June 2023. The series follows three property experts, as they travel around Scotland and judge homes based on how well the owners have designed and utilised their available space. One property is selected from each region, and the winner is selected from the homes that reach the finals. Scotland's Home of the Year has received positive reviews from critics and ratings have continued to strengthen throughout its run. The programme was nominated for a Scottish BAFTA in 2020.
