Avatar

• Realistic avatar
• A photorealistic grey-haired man with a full grey beard, olive canvas jacket over a dark T-shirt, placed beside fridges, furnaces, power stations or snowy houses; the channel avatar is a head-and-shoulders shot in a bright workshop.

Format

One home-preparedness problem per video, worked through as numbered checks, timed checkpoints or a step 'ladder' (what to check yourself, what good looks like, when to call a professional), with timestamped chapters.
