Did anyone watch Grand Designs last night?

nice gaff

seven yrs a bit of a pisstake

Esp. at their age.

ooh this is good

always wonder where ppl

really

get their money

and increasingly intolerant of brushing over this in these shows

class consciousness babey

it’s good

im irish, rural irish, youll forgive me my slow start

*pops monocle*

concrete artist

fucks sake

im goin all vincent browne/haughey on these thieves

a dancer

o rly

and a chief technology officer

oh would ye fuck off

i know isis have a very sophisticated social media operation going and all that but rly all they need to demonstrate the decadence of the west is to cut together some lowlights from this and man vs food and voila, instant radicalisation

im proof

mashallah

id kill her

yes your honour, not guilty

yes representing myself

no just one item. well i have it here. 27 minutes jncluding adverts.

Well tonight’s episode was quite something, arrogance, folly and hubris in spades but still felt sorry for him at the end.

and that's just kevin mcleod!!

Lol!

j/k

i didn't see it (well i saw the credits as i put it on for the circle a bit early) but sounds like a good episode, might check out

wasn't particularly a good episode, wasn't even a good disaster, was just pretty much what Dan said in the revive.

the Grandest Design episode they did to celebrate the anniversary was interesting, a revisit of the best 5 or so from over the years. the winner was the irish guy with two shipping containers stacked on top of each other (which i remember as being interesting at the time)

guy fucked it

can he play rb

it was a least interesting episode, fuck all about design and all about a horrible family

the house that the euphoria series of dance music compilations failed to build

ministry of housing

are you all talking about this lighthouse one that's on repeat right now?

yes

This thing had hubris written all over it from the beginninng, your kids don't need a double room with an en suite each.

beginni the beguinninni

only caught the end. 4 million quid, was it?

plus eight years plus one marriage

minus one house

new series of Australian GD started last night. they do love their Cor-ten steel.

Australian Grand Designs on again nightly. repeats of a series i didn't see at the time.

that thing where they are surveying the plot and the date pops up on screen and it's 7 years ago. and they're still talking about being in before christmas...

(two married bishops, ren fair fans, medieval timber frame building, on a slope, and he's insisting on sanding all the beams himself)

add to that a 5m stained glass window

new series (which'll probably be the usual 4 new buildings and then 'revised repeats')

digging down 6m next to an ancient graveyard, what could possibly go wrong?

at least they're not building on top of it.

has he not watched Poltergeist?

(i'm only 15 minutes in but i can see where this is going)

I hate him

second episode quite impressive

but this series is being hit by covid. they are digging, they are digging, [covid happens], final distanced reveal. they seem to be skipping a lot of the middle of the process.

third episode looks like they are building something very similar to the temporary theatres that went up in w12 - mansard roof, steel skeleton, sips panels.

Is this the guy who was moving his kids, new mrs, new kid, old parent, old ste parent all in?

I quite liked the way it turned out tbh

episode 3, yes

the theatre i was talking about. the making-of video shows the shape better, and not just the square facade.

These two deserve each other

This fella really thinks hes a visionary, back-of-fagbox designing hus version of things that have already been commercially available for ages

Genuinely seems like he's not quite there.

Tragic for her she had to get a job filling wrinkles to afford cushions

Right im banning this programme from the house

a caption saying "May 2017", nevr a good sign.

'we'll be in by next christmas...', yeah, right.

was the earth ship he visited a previous GD? looked very familiar, especially the tyres.

(i also think i remember his dad on tomorrow's world)

This is possibly the worst episode I’ve ever seen. I kinda wanna break things because I’ve seen it.

Fuck im glad we left the music on and the tv off so because every episode is that for me

i always absolutely despise the folk in this show. can't bring myself to watch it again, blood-pressure-ruiner.

they saved the mill by ruining the mill. not that you can live in a mill but...
