The Great House Revival

My fave episode so far, there's hope for the youth yet! He had a perfectly fine house for 30k , seen a second hand Volkswagen golf for 30k outside a dealership yesterday!

True but he had the bottle to go at it himself, which is half the battle.

If that was dermot bannon , it'd tender at 270k n with snags uncovered n extras finish up at 390k !

Have prices gone that bad/high? I genuinely have no clue of the price of things these days but 30k seems like an awful lot. 30k would have been the figure I would have had in mind for windows for a modern new build with plenty of big, high spec windows. The cottage had 4 tiny windows to the front and probably the same to the back.

Very sad to hear that Hugh Wallace has passed away, he was absolutely brilliant on the great house revival and on home of the year loved his wittyness and that he never agreed just for the sake of it.

Or Harrison Gardner from "Build Your Own Home"?

Both Great house revival and Home of the year featuring Hugh will be coming to Rte soon, HotY was finished before he passed, but not sure about GHR

From RTE "The late Hugh Wallace returning to our screens 🤍

Following the passing of our friend and colleague Hugh Wallace, and with the full support of his family, RTÉ will proceed with the broadcast of the new series of Home of the Year and The Great House Revival this year.

Now in its 12th series, Home of the Year was completed before Hugh’s death. Hugh has been a judge on the programme since its inception and will be remembered by his warmth and enthusiasm, and for consistently capturing the hearts of viewers. Series 12 will begin Tuesday, March 3 at 7pm on RTÉ One and RTÉ Player.

RTÉ’s The Great House Revival will also air this Spring. We will honour Hugh’s remarkable dedication, passion, vibrant spirit, and enduring love for design and architecture.

Hugh will be remembered with great fondness by the teams who worked with him on both series in Shinawil and Animo TV production companies, and by the loyal viewers who welcomed him into their homes for so many years."
