    I love the work that this woman does; restoring old bits of furniture. That is a labour of love. Bless her! We live in a horribly throw-away society. It has to stop.

    This is in such hilarious contrast to other episodes that have nightmare clients who want to project manage everything themselves and end up spending way more for way less. The exterior styling isn’t to my tastes, but it clearly suits them wonderfully.

    Extraordinary home, good taste in furniture, reasonably sized spaces, absolutely clean and clear cut.

    I'd LOVE to see this house today! To see if there are any changes... and what kind.

    Great episode! There is a crude, base beauty in that "brute" (or Brutalist?) water tower that has been utterly preserved and enhanced by the new build. The interior is fitted out with a keen eye by Denise and her refinished furniture. Utterly delightful.

    Spoken as an older person myself, how are they going to climb all those stairs? The husband is ready to retire? Knees are the first thing to go.

      Yeah it’s funny how no one ever thinks about how they will be able to be at home when they are unwell or unable to do stairs. Always always have a home that can be fully lived in on the ground level if need be.

    Liked the building with its scaffolding. The look she gives her hubby about the3 things he comes home to is priceless... not sure Derick the architect has maxed the potential of the tower... better than a caravan.

    i absolutely love how often British ppl reference the Tardis! as an American i rarely hear the doc just casually referenced. so very rarely. of course, the last doc i recall on my American programming was matt smith....god bless him....we just don't get current British programming.

    Really interesting project-I hope they ditch the caravans and get some landscaping that frames the structure well.

    What a stunning building. I do think that the black kitchen countertops, popular during this period, went out of fashion, and rightly so as they bring a heaviness to a room. Likewise, the dining room chairs, although comfortable, seem clunky now and clash with that beautiful table. I'd love to see them replaced with something lighter (more homogeneous) as this is such an airy room, it sings. Chairs and table ought to speak the same language. I wish we'd been privy to CLOSET SPACE. Was there any? None was mentioned and the camera man didn't do his job properly!
    Lovely couple. Lovely that they cared so much! But WHERE WERE THE DOGS??

    would have been better with a steep mono pitch roof ad clerestory windows all the way around to float it

    Sorry but the outside of the building is really not nice. Maybe if all the outside walls were the same color as the water tower it would look more cohesive? Love the inside

    So sad to see these extraordinary projects ruined in the end by horrible interior decoration.

      Agreed, although this episode is from 2004, so 19 years ago that interior decoration was probably quite 'on trend' 🤢
