Saw a bit of it there. The older lad is so gay.

I really like this show. John Boynes home is lovely and imo the deserved winner

He gave the Donegal house a 10 and was none too pleased when the other expert gave it a 7.

Very entertaining all the same.

I'm surely not the only one shocked that Jean Byrne didn't have a sex dungeon tucked away somewhere in her house

John Boyne's house a worthy winner for showing what you can do with a standard modern house, but I'd personally prefer to live in Jean Byrnes house. I love those old houses and the room looking out onto the lovely garden looked so peaceful.

Can't believe Hugh W gave 10 for the Donegal McMansion. Totally agree with the new judge, they ignored the fab setting by putting in small windows and half covering them with huge expensive curtains.

Hugh really didn't get on well with the new judge.
Giving the Donegal house a 10 was more to insult him I think!
That spat was as entertaining as the show itself!

Why? Because they can. Cheap TV.

Its a cheap and Nosey way of seeing who has what... no undies on the bedroom floor and you can be sure the cleaners were in the day before.

I just don't understand why anyone would watch it, or why anyone would show off their home like that, stinks of having a superiority complex

Muahahaha

That McMansion in Donegal was awful, apart from it being some sort of fake Georgian you could barely see the views and beach out the windows.

On the show I missed the previous architect, the baldy guy. He always came out with some good lines and generally pissed "design legend" Hugh Wallace off.

Th Real Houewives of Donegal.... House was fecking awful. Imagine having those views and small crappy windows covered in heavy drapes in a fake mock Tudor...taste is severely lacking not to mention common sense.

I was watching this in bed late one night, the one that won, jaysus its personalised but what a nightmare to clean.

Liked Ms. Byrnes little house was very cute.

The Donegal house was the ultimate McMansion... I doubt an architect was involved at any stage in the build

Its astonishing that the more money people have the more they gravitate to conservative taste. Building a mock Victorian house like that is like putting on your grandfathers clothes - I'm amazed Hugh gave it a 10. You gotta admit all the houses are interesting though.;)

You got to question his taste if he thought that yoke deserved 10/10
The new judge is good, and i liked the bit of an argument that broke out. They're usually ridiculously polite.
