I have seen the two guys with the black chalet before.Nice views and would have got my vote. Not too keen on the orange comeback which is pure 1970's

I wouldn't be mad about orange either but at this stage, I have had such an overdose of the "white with a grey feature wall" that I am ready for orange or polka dots. Come to that though, even beige seems daring compared to the white/grey mix at this stage.

It's on RTÉ player. I just gave it a spin. I would have given it to the thatched cottage…so much unforced personality. So cosy and warm looking. Beautiful, outside and in.

The Clifden house didn't rock my boat. A gorgeous home but it lacked warmth and from the outside it looked like a home that was trying too hard.

The log cabin was a fantastic example of what can be achieved in such a small space and when a basic structure is treated with loving care, so I understand why they gave it the top spot.

A lot of comments about liking Deirdre..I do too! I didn't see the first series…was there a judge that got the chop?

Yes, Helen James was dropped. Not sure why, she is a design consultant. Maybe she disagreed a little too much with Hugh and Declan ?;)

HeidiHeidi · 19-03-2016 02:50PM

Deirdre is less "WOWWWW" than Helen was, which is a relief.

And she has excellent taste in clothes - I have the same top as she was wearing the other night

Been racking my brains about the couple with the chalet by the lake. Were they on 'Grand Designs ' ?

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:31PM

The ceiling

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:32PM

Where is this house?

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:36PM

Great chemistry between judges

awanderer · 24-03-2016 08:37PM

Not mad about that first house. Too much thought and not enough heart in it. There are a few nice things but on the whole i find it quite boring.

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:39PM

Was this house featured in examiner?

awanderer · 24-03-2016 08:39PM

Second house could be interesting.

jluv · 24-03-2016 08:39PM

I do like this house. I can see how those in the know would appreciate the light etc but it gives me a very liveable feel,

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:41PM

10 coming up from Declan?

Not only him, I would say.

amdublin · 24-03-2016 08:44PM

This modernist house is my dream house

awanderer · 24-03-2016 08:46PM

I rather like this second house. Not blown away by it and agree about the dining table being too small but I certainly prefer over the first one.

You won! We will have to wait till the end to see if he was the only one giving it a ten (I'd say so as I didn't expect the eight.

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:48PM

Oh look at this one!

Mushy · 24-03-2016 08:49PM

Where in Tipp is that second house? Would hate to live there, but looks nice

amdublin · 24-03-2016 08:49PM

Ikea cushions on the couch they are seating on. I have them!

honeybear · 24-03-2016 08:50PM

A real home here

amdublin · 24-03-2016 08:50PM

Great cottage and extension
