#granddesigns 10 years to build a house. This a classic example as why creatives are never in charge of the play, but the director and producer are. Artists never know where the limit is and would spend 4 times the budget and take twice as long.

Caravan alarm! #granddesigns
Starting in august 2016? Oh that’s not good
#granddesigns
You can really tell how few people are able to even contemplate building their own homes these days by how much #Granddesigns is scratching around for projects. It's a shame.
Still not finished 10 years later. Are they dragging it out until they retire to finish as a retirement project? The finish is really good though, and the commitment is admirable. #granddesigns
Most delightful feature of tonight’s #GrandDesigns: Jana’s accent gradually shifting from Czech to Scottish.
Tempted, as a fellow faffer, to get a T-shirt with ‘King of Faff’ on it. #granddesigns
I’m enjoying this couple more than many on Grand Designs. Absolutely rooting for Rory and Jana. #granddesigns
Oh. A five year gap. I admire the ambition and the dream, but at some point I'd have given up and bought a ready built house rather than living in a 1 bed flat forever. #granddesigns
Doesnt bode well when Kev first rocks up in 2016 . #granddesigns
Jana’s accent is going to be fully Scottish by the time the build is done. #granddesigns
These #GrandDesigns couple at totally nuts . 😂
Got my fingers crossed for this family on #GrandDesigns they seem really nice
This is a great #GrandDesigns - they’re already over budget and haven’t even started building anything 18 months into the project.
I swear when the caption “August 2016” appeared onscreen I let out a little exclamation of excited joy. #GrandDesigns
This weeks #granddesigns episode started filming in 2016, and its a fairly modest build, so this is going to be interesting...
This is shaping up to be a classique of the genre #GrandDesigns
When the start date is 2016 and it's the new 2026 series you are either watching an unscheduled repeat or things go very, very mad.
