The Taylor residence is small and unaffected but is packed with over 3,000 bits of china. They have nearly 500 teapots - none of which they use.
Jean says: "We have the collection bug. If we see something we like, we just start. There's a bit of competition to see who can buy the most. My favourite thing is my chandelier - the dearest thing I bought. It cost Β£5.00".
Alan was disgusted she spent so much: "If I pay more than 50p for something, I think I'm being done." He sees his collecting obsession as an addiction. "I'm just like an alcoholic or a druggie."
Donna was one of their 5 children and grew up surround by the collections:
"You never touched it. It made me grow up thinking that my house would never be a clutter. I like clear spaces, nothing lying about."
And if her parents were to leave their collections to her, what would she do?
"I'd sell the whole lot, quickly, or worse! I'd like to take a rifle to the chickens. I quite like the paperweights and the fish. But the rest ..."
Alan doesn't seem to mind though. "I hope if I go, I'll come back as a seagull and can fly above them seeing them get rid of all this rubbish! That'll be grand!"
