Liked the hot tubs and oh what a bang the normal shed went with at the end

I liked the fact that before he blew it up he said it was going to get recycled.

Into what? There was fk all left of it.

No a piece was used on his weathervane at the end

We just watched them all this evening - now to find a field nearby...

New series next Sunday at 8pm, he's moved his cabin from the last series to the coast in Somerset to build it into a beach hut.

[Laurel Green]

Thanks for the heads up.

Excellent news! There is a glut of interesting house/house building programs on at the moment.

Besides 'Grand Designs' on Weds at 9 and 'Kevin's Man Made Home' on Sun at 9, there is also 'The House 100k Built' on BBC2 at 8pm on Weds, and 'Building the Dream' on More4 at 9pm on Tuesday.

A good week for telly

[Laurel Green]

Heads up, on in two minutes.

Will be watching, I liked the last program he did.

[Laurel Green]

Judging by the opening shots, it should be a-bit-of-all-right.

Looks like it will be good, I am wondering about the 'conservatory' being in the way of the drop side wall though, or have I got mixed up and the drop side he made is the other side to the glass going on?

[Laurel Green]

Wasn't the drawbridge deck on the caravan conversion on another programme?

ETA: Scrub the above as have just seen the lifting mechanism for the deck.

Kevin's shed wasn't the whole wall, found a pic now


George Clarke's caravan had the whole side dropping down too.

Yup, that must have been who I was thinking of.

Lovely location for it.

I hope the brake is good or the wheels are well chocked, that's a high cliff.

[Laurel Green]

Love the graphics for the blowing up of the sheep.

Next week it's a drinking game for every time Kevin says 'off grid'

[ajprice]

Limpets and seaweed, no thanks.

Was that a big concrete sewage pipe just a little up the beach, the prow of his deck points right at it?....

[Laurel Green]

Heads up. On in seven minutes.

Having just spotted it, I'd say yes you are right!
