Ya do you know the cost of a few camera men and a hired van are at the minute like it is RTE we are watching right.

Is it my imagination or do they all look a lot older and greyer on this segment touring the other house. I think they filmed that this year because they didn't have enough clips from three years ago to make a full episode. Dermot is definitely a lot greyer.

The voices are really boring me. Sounds like it’s a constant gentle moan since this started.

FFS Dermot let her have the ktchen that she has been dreaming about for 40 years!

Dermotts kitchens are always horrible cheap looking plywood.

Oh its definitely a few years later because they had to wait for planning and Covid in-between.

Aul wanes and modern minimalism are not a natural match.

Not sure how this will turn out!

lawred2 · 22-01-2023 11:15pm

Dermot didn't bother ordering the door the auld fella wanted.

touts · 22-01-2023 11:15pm

This is the dullest episode in a long time. I'm fairly tired of hearing about different shades of green.

funkey_monkey · 22-01-2023 11:15pm

I don't think the old man is getting much of a say in this. Kind of sad really.

I don't want to go there also, but I will ...when the woman said she was "excited", I thought "really??" 😂

dominatinMC · 22-01-2023 11:20pm

She seems like a bloody pain in the hole. Husband gets feck all of a say, it seems

touts · 22-01-2023 11:21pm

Finally a bit of a laugh. The poor bathroom sales woman trying to sell all the features needed in a bathroom for older people and the wife basically saying they won't think about that until they become old. And then the realisation dawning on the saleswoman and Dermot that she was serious.

funkey_monkey · 22-01-2023 11:21pm

He's not getting his ice making machine, Alexa, green door, etc. He's been shoved into a glorified cupboard at the back of the house.

She seems like a dose.

Duvet Day · 22-01-2023 11:21pm

What a fabulous view from the big window in the house they visited, I'd love it.

technocrat · 22-01-2023 11:21pm

”Men not known for been grafters!” Imagine if the auld lad said that about a woman.. would be a national scandal.

UsBus · 22-01-2023 11:23pm

Poor fecker, all he wanted was a bottle green door...

appledrop · 22-01-2023 11:23pm

Well the daughters kitchen in redone house is horrible so I don't hold out much hope the the kitchen Dermot has picked for the parents.

Disgraceful Dermot didn't give them the door they wanted whether it was nice or not.

Yeah, at this stage I just want her to shut the Fook up 🤪😜

Summer2020 · 22-01-2023 11:26pm

Did Dermot lean against some wet paint , sleeve covered in white paint 😂

There would be a queue of outraged women (who have a business giving diversity talks in schools) looking to tell Claire Byrne that initially they didn't want to make a fuss but on reflection they decided to post about it, (on the Instagram page for their business giving diversity talks to schools), and after the immense public support (from all the people on Instagram following their business giving diversity talks to schools) calling for Dermot to publicly apologise (Oh and did I mention my business giving diversity talks to schools).

Muahahaha · 22-01-2023 11:28pm

250k was good value for that house given the roof and high end windows

UsBus · 22-01-2023 11:30pm

Corrugated roof again, Christ...

Yep must have been during the visit because it appears and disappears at different times🤣

They seem to be in now with Dermot. People are going to look back on this era and view a lot of design/styles choice are like how we feel about avocado bathrooms!

I don't mind the Corrugated roofs. I think they are far easier to maintain and keep clean and they look modern. I think I'd go for one if I was building again.
