Anyone watching the Great Interior Design Challenge?

[Cocolepew]

It's a hoot , everyone is so full of themselves.

Day 2 and no grey yet

Or programme even

I missed the end. The bl**dy tv recorder acted up. Grrrr. Did the two women get through ?

Yep both women went through. The guy will have to do his geometric patterns elsewhere

I luked the toned down look of the geometry guy.

'liked' even

the presenter sounded sort of sarcastic to me anyway when he asked if they now felt like interior designers

the grey room was good, the boys bedrooms, hmm, over cluttered but it is for a boy quite difficult to please judges.
those dinosaur hazards should have precluded her from going through though

surely there are animal heads and bottoms that are not as dangerous?

dc is now trying to convince dh to change the handles on his wardrobe

Two of the homeowners are very swishy of hair

They are probably Mumsnetters. Cocolepaw

I hated that yellow room. Looked like baby shite walls.

and despite her not liking the wall paper, i thought he put too much there, he ran out of money didnt he?

Oh Lordy, the Wimbledon living rooms... I think there will be some ripping out after waving the contestants goodbye.

The whole program feels annoyingly fake as they never get a real reaction or feedback from the 'home owner'. I wish they'd been brave enough to show some criticism as clearly there is room for improvement, so why pretend they're perfect?!

Maybe a final stage where you see what the home owners kept after living with it... Bring on the critique.

I missed the Oast Houses so am watching now :) indulgent day time viewing..

Does anyone else find the constant repetition of 'the home owner' incredibly annoying???

Ugh. Shudders. Carries on watching.

I didn't think the Edwardian rooms were great.
If I lived in one of those lovely houses I would have been disappointed.
I think the Australian woman who didn't get through in a previous heat would have done a great job as her own house looked fab.( to my eyes).

They are definitely not like any interior designers I have ever met and would never work as the results are so shoddy and unattractive. They are like students making do and are crafters at best. The floors and windows do need to be done properly and not 'mopped' with varnish .

Charlotte the redhead really reminds me of someone.

Me too...someone famous I think...an actress?

These house boat owners are a bit....unenthusiastic? !

Yes an actress or comedian.

It's driving me mad now! I want to say a young Catherine Tate but I don't think that's it...

This guy that's ignoring what his home owner wants completely...I wonder how this is going to go...

And the really awkward conversations between the presenter and competitors are really annoying. It's just not coming across naturally at all

Catherine tate is who I keep thinking off, its not though

It'll come to me at 2am probably

That's who she reminds me of. I keep expecting her to get thrown off and go "Is this face bovvered?"

Ooh, nice cumulus nimbus...
