How is Prince William involved?

The Duke of Cambridge joined the DIY SOS team to rebuild the boxing gym destroyed in the Grenfell fire.

He met volunteer builders working on the project and shared that seeing their work made him feel very proud.

Prince William also spoke to a 14-year-old boy who lost a friend in the fire and encouraged him to not repress his feelings.

He said: It's a horrible process to have to go through. You have got the right people around you and I hope you talk about it.

"You've got to talk about how much you miss your friends, that's perfectly normal and keep boxing as well. I can see that twinkle in your eyes, you're going to be good."

Is Nick Knowles presenting it?

Nick Knowles will be presenting DIY SOS: Grenfell.

The 55-year-old presenter recently tweeted: "Thank you to the community of Grenfell & all who took part for their guidance, friendship & support during the build."

Speaking to the , he revealed: "When we first came to the area the people were understandably angry. And they were suspicious of all the media and TV.

"But, we spent time listening and talking with them and they were just amazing with us."
