OMG and oak furniture

I can't watch it, I have yet to see any designs that I like.
I watched one last week, where they put this HUGE gold bed with matching side tables in It was bloody awful.
I saw that one Cinds, it was bloody hideous

They seem to cram in these huge pieces of furniture into box rooms! They put in a huge bed, and then there is no room for a wardrobe or chest of drawers. Where are people supposed to put their stuff?
I abhor clutter, and they have to have something on everything! I want some open space around me.

Some of the houses look really nice but if I am being totally honest when I saw it was Linda Barker doing the makeover I just thought oh no, I dont think she has forgotten her time in changing rooms she always has tacky bits in her makeovers cant wait to see how the house has ended up looking...

That seems a common theme in most makeover shows... massive beds, no wardrobe etc Do these designers not have stuff?
Oh God those market handbags on the walls She's not care in the community FFS
Unlined curtains in the bedroom, practical
I do actually like the paint colour though

I dont like that massive mirror or the wardrobe doors or those handbags hanging on the wall or those door handles ...

The worse makeover I have seen awful.. not one room looked nice...
Thirteen thousand five hundred pounds sorry they were robbed
OMG ................I must have no taste. i absoloutely loved most of it. Can't watch the programme when terry dwyer does it ..........she grates on me more than I can begin to put into words.
Love Linda Barker and absoloutely loved the wallpaper in the lounge and the colour of the bedrooom.

I wouldn't let them feckers near my home with a ten foot barge pole. The air-pocket wallpaper will have me tearing it down in seconds.
I'd let a make-over programme near my garden though.

Soozy, I did like the colour of the bedroom too - thats it though
Jenny, the air pockets would drive me mad too! Its not till you see the close up that you can see all the sloppy work - air bubbles in the wallpaper, paint slopped over the woodwork/light switches/skirting boards I mean, I know its to be expected when they only have an hour... but gah!

This lot have got no respect for anyone's property. They constantly traipse over carpets with their dirty shoes, slap on the paint without a thought for tidying the edges and one show I watched they made a curtain pelmet out of wallpaper and stuck it on with pins.
I do enjoy watching it though

I'm glad Terri Dwyer has gone but...
They NEVER paint the skirting boards or architrave, it's all fine and well spending a fortune on bloody Farrow and Ball paint but if the skirting boards are manky it's pointless.
They are seriously the worst wallpaperers ever...and yes I have the cheek to say that with my shrunken kitchen wallpaper ...but bubbles everywhere!
They give women glass topped dressing tables with nowhere to put any make up, hair brushes etc...eh? Wassa point of that?
No storage.
They go way overboard with the patterns, gaudy wallpaper, striped curtains, floral cushions...they are always way too busy.
That'll do for now...whinge wise...

I think they deliberately choose colours and patterns that will be controversial.
I watched an episode recently where the designer - big gobby woman - had chosen a hideous shade of red and every time Claire Sweeney asked the couple if they liked the colour, she replied "Yer jokin'" - she said this several times.
Even the designer couldn't hide her surprise that they actually liked it.

It is terrible

60 mins my arse
