Is this an observation on Ms Beenys ever increasing nooks?

But I notice that we have another series of Grand Designs... wasn't very impressed with the lunes from Newport though... £1M for a wrecked folly.

Got to agree with that, Kirstie is a frumpy munter.

And sorry Zeity, but IMO Beeny's starting to look a bit shabby too. She'll need planning permission if those wabs get much bigger.

TV will never be the same again.

You are confusing Location, Location, Location with Property Ladder and Kirsty Alsopp with Ms N0rky.

If it is then I'd like to say "bye!!!". It really is one of the worst programmes on television - and only a little better and slightly less pretentious as "Come dine with me".

You can't lump location location in with Come dine with me. CDWM is comedy gold!

I'd feel sorry for someone who believed in his business and tried his best to save it; but I'm put off by the dislike for people smug enough to boast to others of having found the secret, when in fact they are just floating on a rising tide.
