Tim Allen flashes ‘Home Improvement’ co-star in resurfaced clip

Allen then lifts his kilt, and while the camera does not show what was underneath it, Richardson, 71, clarified to TMZ Tuesday, “He was well-dressed under there. I was just shocked that he lifted the kilt, not by a man in boxer shorts.”

Lost WWII love letters uncovered during NYC home renovation

Their love stood the test of time — and home improvement.
