I'd love to live in a railway house with the steamies going past blush

JaneJudge Wed 18-Aug-21 20:12:53

why is one of the designers in their pyjamas?
and which couple are Mum and daughter? confused

Kamiso Wed 18-Aug-21 20:15:29

Given up already! It all seemed really silly.

Mollygo Wed 18-Aug-21 20:25:41

Definitely silly. I’ve put it on to record so I can just watch the end.

MissAdventure Wed 18-Aug-21 20:40:41

May7 Wed 18-Aug-21 20:57:00

Yep me too. mental she said. Shes not wrong there.shock

MissAdventure Wed 18-Aug-21 21:07:02

I'm onto George Clarke now.
I think it's more my thing these days.

Shandy57 Wed 18-Aug-21 21:23:24

Well that was a waste of a tub of ice cream! Personally I wouldn't enjoy living with either - especially the hair!

Maybe70 when we moved in it was a rickety old fence and I was concerned for my children and cats. I contacted Network Rail and they came and put a very strong green metal fence up, the garden was completely enclosed and safe.

It is just one huge pee take isn’t it? I think they trawled applications for the most stupid and gullible entrants they could find. It’s a shame because I would love to see genuine considered ideas and makeovers.

Mollygo Wed 18-Aug-21 21:32:23

The hair!!

MayBee70 Wed 18-Aug-21 21:49:42

I’m recovering by watching Landscape Artist of the Year.

LondonMzFitz Wed 18-Aug-21 21:59:03

I loved the blues and greens in LLB's room, and I liked the furniture rearrangement in the other room (the designer *not in pyjamas was on a designers competition a few years ago, did a lovely apartment in Brighton, from memory;).

I think as a TV light entertainment programme it fills the hour, I guess they need the loopy stuff (swinging chair? hairy thing?) just to keep the nutsy element.

I'm no prude but what's with the date of birth / slut names? Stick in another five minutes of the design elements if they need to fill time.

spabbygirl Wed 18-Aug-21 21:59:11

I loved LLB's, for a party room its fab, loved the seat, the fire, the beautiful paintings I thought the colours were great, wasn't so keen on the other bedroom especially the 'garage door' & hair but it is better than it was. I think if you want something bland and innocuous, don't get a designer in, you're paying them to do something unusual & different

HannahLoisLuke Wed 18-Aug-21 22:10:35

Tacky, tacky, but I rather expected it would be. Disappointed though, I was hoping it might have grown up in the intervening years and actually become a proper makeover programme with some ideas I might like to copy. I’m not interested in Vegas, drag queens, garish colours, smutty innuendo. Added to that I really don’t like that woman Anna Richardson.
Anyway, sorry for the grump, at least there’s George Clarke now, showing proper conversions/makeovers.

BigBertha1 Wed 18-Aug-21 22:17:54

Truly terrible not watching any more f this tripe.

MayBee70 Wed 18-Aug-21 22:19:24

Dread to think what’s going to happen with that swing seat when they have parties. The corrugated effect was interesting but only because I’ve discovered a Facebook page full of buildings made of corrugated iron in various stages of decomposition and the colours are beautiful.

MissAdventure Wed 18-Aug-21 22:50:20

I preferred the blue and pink makeover than the iron one.

LovelyLady Wed 18-Aug-21 22:53:03

Was looking forward to some decent ideas. Sadly not on tonight’s programme. LLB was over the top but his work was decent. Don’t think I’ll be watching again. ‘End of peer silly silly humour’ Unfortunately its for me.

FindingNemo15 Wed 18-Aug-21 23:11:30

What a waste of time. Will not be watching any more episodes.

sodapop Thu 19-Aug-21 07:28:47

I only watched part of it as it was so dreadful. LLB looked ridiculous in those trousers.

ginny Thu 19-Aug-21 07:34:19

Hair ! Swinging seat in the middle of the lounge! Not for me. LLB on the door !
Don’t think I’ll bother to watch again.

shysal Thu 19-Aug-21 07:37:29

Absolutely awful, but I expect I shall continue to watch! smile

Mollygo Thu 19-Aug-21 09:06:18

That swing looked fragile. I understood why they got all 4 women on there to prove it wasn’t but imaging what a few children or teens could do. I wouldn’t have a moments peace worrying about the ceiling. Stupid idea!
