Just seen it on the TV guide, but thanks for the heads up. Follows posh pawn too, so a Ch4 night methinks.

Only 4 episodes this season it seems.

This one has the largest house they've ever covered. Another sterile flat-roofed glass box, which looks like all the other sterile flat-roofed glass boxes.

I am very annoyed that they have plastered pictures pf the finished product all over the newspapers/internet.

Half the pleasure of watching it is the anticipation of seeing the finished house

Same here, I hate reading about them in advance.

That is one big bungalow....

The bedroom section looked like a hotel from the plan. It looks like a designer house rather than a home.

My wife saw him and said "he's gay then". I said well he has 4 kids, but there seems to be no Mrs Clinton.

I just said that's not a house, it's a small airport terminal, then Kevin nicked my line!

I thought the swimming pool ran the length of the bedroom wing?

Far be it from me to complain about such matters, but I do suspect that is going to a touch large for a house for a single chap who has 4 kids over a couple of days a week.... Man to think he could have an eight car garage in there...

The show always looks great, nicely shot and put together. Find that host too condescending, and loves his cliches. I swear i'll yell 'VIEW TO INFINITY' in that blokes ear if i ever encounter him in person. Missus pointed out that kevvin also likes to overuse 'compromised'.

But it wouldn't be the same show without that twonk, i'll keep watching.
