Programmes To Watch

[Logan]

Sometimes location location location,re visits the people that's been on there. There's a new one on channel 4 this afternoon, called Coast vs Country. 4-5pm Monday to Friday. On homes under the hammer, some of the old houses have massive gardens. But all they can think of is building on it. I think it's such a waste.

I am wondering if I should subscribe to Radio Times 10 issues for £1 .. I prefer watching Charles Clarke and Kevin MacLoed's Grand Design. I used to watch Home Under Hammer and often thought the two presenters were husband and wife!

A long time ago mentioned that to Hubby, but he said sometimes they arrive late. But it's a good price. It's 12 issues for a £1. You can cancel when you want.Didn't see EastEnders, it's on at 8pm on a Monday,at 7.30 i thought i have a Knapp. Woke up at 8.15 when hubby took Barley out for a wee.

Now that i watch TV more, to be fair to the Yorkshireman, I think I might go for it, rather than going through the channels to find out some programmes.

If it was me,i would. Got catch up with EE on iPlayer.

I paid that £1. Just have to make sure I remember to cancel it. The A word is coming back after Our Girl's finale last night. I like watching Luke Pasqualino more than Michelle Keegan.. An hour is so long .. Why don't they do it 45 minutes? By the time it was half past an hour, I was already getting bored. Usually, when actors/actresses die, I shed tears, not this time. Too much make believe for me to be involved emotionally. Keegan can't really act.

Howards End is coming soon. I prefer Remains of Our Days.. I think that butler played by Anthony Hopkins is autistic ..

That's good, you might get a reminder after the 12 issues. I used to subscribe to GW mag. After a few years,i found that they were going over the same things.

Howard's End won't be the same as the old series.

Never watched Remains of the Day. But i do like Anthony Hopkins.

Just in case I forget.. It's not funny to have £48 taken out of my account.

Last night, I watched Grand Design in Scotland .. What a beautiful building .. I don't think I would start something unless there were enough money. A lovely couple and it's amazing how stoic the Scot and Spanish can be!

Last night I really enjoyed Ugly House and Grand Design

I am not sure I like the boxy design. Every single house seems to have a cancerous square box lumped on top of them.

For those in the UK who want to have a look

I do like this one as it opens the house up to an elevated view across the area.. Very nice.

Grand Design is about a 10 years + build which started when the kids were kids and now they are adolescent.

Needless to say - it's NOT finished, but look at all the fine details - a labour of love ..

Now watch out for this RIBA nonsense or advant garde concept Tuesday, probably next.

On The Express newspaper's link, you can see the slide show of the buildings nominated for the RIBA award

I am not sure I like the looks of them, but they might have incorporated some innovative concepts and technologies inside or out..
