A man lives in a double time-warp house - with the inside set in the 1950s and the outside an 1850s Wild West Town.

Billy Gibbons, 68, transformed his home into a 1950s haven after his parents died in the mid-90s.

In his sepia lounge with rugged walls, he has an original Bakelite TV from as far back as 1949, supported by a cabinet from the early 50s.

Billy's kitchen features vintage cabinets in a bright technicolour with a black and white chessboard floor tiling.

He owns 10 fridges all from the 1950s - though only one is kept in his kitchen - as well as period radios, collectibles and ornaments.
