SWMBO is an architect so I guess I'll be watching that warbling, conceited nob-end McCloud again. I swear he says the same thing at the end of every program!

The whole transformation process is always good TV though. I've been to one of the houses featured and it looked even more impressive in real life.

I'm guessing 4. The dirty rat.

Impressive looking project but I don't think his budget will last long!

I think the clue is in the start date - 2006 I think it was.

"Thank god you haven't got kids" he said, with a tweak of his caddish moustache. "Soon, my pretty, soon".

I wouldn't be surprised at all. IN fact, I will be surprised if he only goes twice over budget....
