Denise Van Outen's Winter Heating Tips: Save Big on Energy Bills
Denise Van Outen, once known as the face of The Big Breakfast , has reinvented herself as a modern-day money-saving guru. Dubbed the "female Martin Lewis," Denise is using her platform to help families navigate the soaring costs of energy this winter. With her latest Channel 4 show, How to Heat Your Home for Less This Winter , she brings practical, no-nonsense advice to help viewers cut their energy bills without sacrificing comfort.
Denise has fully embraced her new role as a consumer advocate, stepping away from her 1990s pin-up persona. Now, at 50, she sports cozy knitted jumpers rather than skimpy dresses and takes pride in sharing relatable, actionable tips for everyday households. Speaking passionately about her latest venture, she revealed how personal the mission has become. "I've been turning up at friends’ houses, bleeding radiators, and giving tips—completely unprompted!" she quipped.

The show aims to educate viewers on simple home-heating hacks that could save hundreds of pounds annually. Denise emphasizes small but impactful changes, such as using draft excluders, lowering boiler temperatures, and checking radiators for trapped air. Even using a chimney balloon or an old duvet to block unused fireplaces can make a big difference in retaining heat.
One memorable encounter during filming underscored the urgency of her message. Denise recounted meeting a mother in a supermarket who confessed she hadn’t turned on her heating due to high costs, resorting instead to blankets to keep her family warm. "That really struck a chord," Denise said, emphasizing the importance of these accessible tips.
Since transitioning into this new phase of her career, Denise has tackled a range of consumer topics, from the air fryer craze to supermarket savings. However, she considers this heating special her most critical project yet. It’s not just about saving money—it’s about staying warm and safe during the colder months.
Denise insists she’s not trying to compete with financial expert Martin Lewis. “I’m no threat to Martin!” she laughed. Still, she’s proud to offer her own relatable and straightforward approach to helping people save.
Her advice is a reminder that even modest efforts can have a huge impact. From lowering your thermostat by a single degree to ensuring your radiators are balanced, these adjustments are manageable for everyone. Denise sums it up perfectly: "Small changes can lead to big savings. And hey, lend a hand—bleed your neighbor’s radiators if you have to!"
