hehehehehe - thanks hermykne, was worried I was just being a bitch, lol
That gorgeous building - no respect for it at all. I actually like lots of the stuff she liked (all the frilly stuff and the tiles, etc) but it was just a travesty in a building like that.

No, me too, definitely. I was expecting her to devastated with the estate agents' estimates, but ho no. The ground floor was just so over the top.
Now, Sarah Beeny. Did she give birth at some point during the making of that program? What did she have, anyone know?

The downstairs loo was awful, at least I think it was the downstairs loo. all bright pinky/purple tiles?
And the wallpaper she put in the living room was that what cost £245? I was watching bits and missing bits trying to catch up on housework at the same time. The tiles that were jewelled and cost £1000 were really nice though, the ones in the big bathroom I think. I really should have paid more attention.

Totally agree with all comments - I love this programme! and by the way, I'm afraid I'm a sucker for finding about celebrity babies and Sarah Beeney did have a teeny Beeney ..........Billy!
I'm famous for my knowledge of celebrity babes (nothing to be proud of my DH would say .....!)

what i cant understand is why these people who sign up for these programmes dont take on board the advice of the presenter, who has loads usually good - like, have they not seen the series and said yes the presenter is right or that was a disaster....
blowing bubbles they must be

What a mess!
I can't believe what she did to to the livingroom and the downstiars bathroom was just horrible!
I quite liked the kitchen, and the bedroom off the roof terrace was nice.
From the outside the property looked amazing!
I think she is absolutely barmy and her sister who controlled the budgeting was mad to get involved and not put her foot down!
I would never spend that much on a bathroom let alone just the tiles! LOL!

OK all of you, I was watching this and then a very good friend called and we had a lovely long chat...but i missed the end!
(wd rather chat to the friend, obviously) but what happened? I saw the finished house (agree it was a bit much, needed sunglasses in that living room) - how much over budget did they go? What was it valued at? And did no-one buy it?
DH says i just like this show cause of schadenfreude as acnebride says and he's right lol
