The Great Interior Design Challenge

[Davros]

New series starts tomorrow, 7pm on BBC2. Anyone else in?

Does anyone remember who won last year? I wonder if they actually have a career in interior design now?

It was a dull offering last night, I was only half watching it. The Japanese room was my least favourite, it just looked bitty and unfinished. I liked the blue, but it was too safe. I would have liked to have seen more from Nancy.

I watched the last 15 mins last night and what a diabolical load of codswaddle. Honestly, I am happy that I didn't stay in and watch it. Dullsville.

I was so sure that Anne the Japanese room person would go that I almost stopped watching. How could they have chucked Nadia out? She had the best ideas by a long chalk as well as an actual design, rather than a paint colour. Yes it did look a bit unfinished but FGS Anne hadn't got any doors on the wardrobe!

I would have chucked Tali out for that unrelenting blue. Blue plus a lamp? could have done that myself but wouldn't have done

I kind of hope they have a 'top loser' wild card thing so they can bring back Jamie, he would have wiped the floor with any of that lot. But Nadia could have surprised them.

annandale You forgot the wallpaper on the bedside tables

I'm waiting for the designer who puts 'teal' and orange together!!!!

Told you the 60s\70s are back. Orange was HUGE then STDGIs

Yes to all of these comments, they were all bad but nadia wasn't the worst.

I think the right person went. Much as Anne didn't get the wardrobe doors ack on and her frayed bunting was a mess, she was at least hands on. Nadia's room had the potential to be an amazing, whimsical flight of fancy but all she did was pour green paint into white till the correct shade was obtained. The painter and builder did it all, if she hadn't had the up cycle challenge, there wouldn't have been a table.

I do think Anne will probably be next to go; making it up as you go doesn't cut it!

Bloody hell, she actually DOES have a career in interior design Sarah Moore

That was unexpected after The Voice and all those programmes whose winners sink without trace.

Good for her. This years lot aren't so promising, I suppose they are amateurs to be fair.

True member also walking about in a dream doesn't cut it. Anne looked like she'd overdone the substances in the 60s\70s! (sorry)

Sad to see Nadia go - she had the most interesting vision for the room.

The Japanese room looked messy - as soon as the little girl added her own clutter to it, it could look a nightmare very quickly.

I think that if there hadn't been a 3 day limit, Nadia's could have been best, she obviously didn't organise her time properly. It must be hard when you're new.

I wonder if the owners are told that they can't completely reject the designer's plans? Because if I had asked for a calm sanctuary with no bold prints, and got orange chevrons, I would have sent the designer back to the drawing board - there's no way I would have gone ahead with that design.

Frankly, having had teenagers, I have had enough boundary pushing to last me a lifetime, and would have no truck with any more from a designer.

I couldn't believe Nadia went. Her design was by far the best, imho. The Japanese room was just a mess, and the orange room was just a grey room with some orange in it. I quite liked the Moroccan one too, actually-it looked exactly as you expected it to.

Am I missing something???

It wasn't on at all here last week (Wales) and last night it was the one with the dark green in the cottages???

If everyone else is now a week ahead I'll have to leave the thread

In different areas they show different programmes at varying times don't they OhshutUp.? Don't leave the thread

Could you watch it on iPlayer?

But I'm a whole week behind! So I can't look st the thread any more as it will spoil it! What a bloody stupid idea from the BBC

thomas the Snooker was on last week, so no programme. I couldn't get it on Catchup either. I'm up to date now, though. Weird.

I thought Nadia's was awful. Anyone could have come up with the concept after 2 minutes on Pinterest and then she executed it badly. I believe she deserved to go and the Japan themed lady wasn't far behind. This week I don't rate any of them.

Ha Lois just saw your pic - not far off the truth!

The fireplace with the flowers looked awful!

So did her window seat cushion!

Tally looks like she designs for Next.
