I reckon he is minted, and he is away a lot so she doesn't have to put up with him 24/7

nice views

Birdiebump · 21/03/2007 22:00

"Twat" was DH's opinion. "Dog's Dinner" summed up the flat....

Baysmum · 21/03/2007 22:07

OHMYGOD - how can you spend that much money on a flat then do it up like a DFS showroom - those giraffes!!

pooka · 21/03/2007 22:08

And cow hide all over the place.
Hated the glass steps up to the dome.

Heathcliffscathy · 21/03/2007 22:13

ponyskin/cowhide.....bleuuuuurghhhhhhh!

80s blokes shagpad styleeee.

basically views and dome were great and not much else.

quadrophenia · 21/03/2007 22:15

alot of it was so bleurgh, and very inconsiderate, they couldn't really have given a shit about their neighbours...nice. she looked like a drak and older camerson diaz

quadrophenia · 21/03/2007 22:15

dark

cece · 21/03/2007 22:17

DH said exactly the same thing - he has to be loaded...

What was her accent - missed the first bit where they were introduced?

southeastastra · 22/03/2007 08:20

she was a pita! what a mess they made of it too. they should have just whacked a prefab on top of it. horrible people.

MintChocChippyMinton · 22/03/2007 08:26

i fell asleep and missed the end. It didn't look very promising right from the start did it. I was admiring the granny flats below, all that dralon and flowery curtains - now they were cosy - until they were flooded out.

Twiglett · 22/03/2007 08:29

that view was superb .. sigh .. imagine waking up to that

agree re the cow hide

I didn't like either of them tbh

CODalmighty · 22/03/2007 08:35

i liked the pony skin

had they not? ... how appallingly crass

I did like those old biddies in the flats below .. they were such lovely gentle folk on camera .. I just bet they were giving them what for during it though

deaconblue · 22/03/2007 11:46

Is it just me, or are the people all bloody awful this series? It's starting to be more Property Ladder, full of nobs who won't take advice

angmarie · 22/03/2007 12:03

I saw the begining missed the middle and woke up for the end , I loved the dome and the doors that opened from the kitchen to the terrace but that was about it .

I couldnt beleive they didnt have an architect just imagine how much nicer it would of been with a proffessional helping them .
