The next series starts on the 21st April. Looking forward to banquettes, and bizarre paint choices, and upcycling of old junk. DD and I are rewatching the old series and I’d forgotten how crazy some of the rooms were!

Duran thinks she’s got nothing to learn.

Duran thinks she’s got nothing to learn.

I bloody hope the tears haven’t saved her.

RipsMyKnitting · 19/05/2026 20:58

FFS....Duran should have gone. Her unscreened bedroom is a total fuck up and her attitude stinks

Netaporter · 19/05/2026 20:58

I did call Ajeet to go home from the off tbf. But Duran Duran should’ve gone.

WonderfulSmith · 19/05/2026 20:58

How has Duran stayed?

So do we think that they film the introduction bit on the same day as the judging bit? Fake the intro as they’ve already done it, then costume change and film the judging.

The contestants seem to be wearing the same clothes? It’s just the presenters that look to change?

littlbrowndog · 19/05/2026 20:58

Jeez Duran still stays

Netaporter · 19/05/2026 20:59

I wish Sophie would lose that bandana..

Are they? And what is Duran wearing?

Reminds me of Jackie Stallone.

Chrysanthemum5 · 19/05/2026 21:00

I thought it would be a close call between Duran and Ajeet - both their rooms were not good. However I hated the colours in Sophie’s space and Lia’s 70d theme was overpowering.

Duran’s lace skirt over a tracksuit is a weird look. Her haircut really annoys me
too.

Netaporter · 19/05/2026 21:01

Imagine if the papier mache queen herself actually wins it all? 😂

Chrysanthemum5 · 19/05/2026 21:03

To be fair to Emmerly her space was much better than the others this week. She’d really thought about it all and I didn’t even hate her art work!

Maybe not on this one, but I’ve noticed it on previous weeks.

RancidRuby · 19/05/2026 21:08

I hope Emmerly wins, she’s the only one who seems to be listening and improving. The others just seem to churn out a slightly different version of their usual schtick each week.

RancidRuby · 19/05/2026 21:11

I think Lia’s was the worst this week. I don’t know how she looked at that very modern black kitchen and came up with 70s. The others had many faults but their spaces at least felt somewhat cohesive.

SabrinaThwaite · 19/05/2026 21:11

WonderfulSmith · 19/05/2026 20:59

Ah no! It’s the judges wearing the same clothes and the contestants wearing different outfits this week.

Seaside3 · 19/05/2026 21:15

Just catching up. Having spent all afternoon painting the woodwork in my hall i really wish I had a decorator to help.

Seaside3 · 19/05/2026 21:58

Ok, caught up and still really disappointed with the designers and the decisions from Michelle. Duran should have gone home. I really wasn't a fan of lia's room either.

The only one who has progressed is Emmerley. Last week was good, this week better. Hoping she's not been stitched up next week With a dodgy partner....

deeahgwitch · 19/05/2026 23:59

Duran should have gone.

Villanousvillans · Yesterday 00:52

Emmerly’s room was ok, the rest were completely shite. These lot are useless.

ExtraOnions · Yesterday 07:26

What a poor set of contestants … really lazy casting.

Emmerley seems to be the only one listening, but even her spaces are touch and go.

I hope Next have some talented designers, who will make sure that any collection is fit to go into peoples houses.

Illjusthavethebreadsticks · Yesterday 08:20

What made them all go for hideous brown. Johnny would have excelled this week I think.
