To be honest, from what we've seen I hate it too.

The garden's too dinky, the house layout seems to be the same as last year with a few rooms removed and as usual it's all a bit tacky.

I do like that they've seemingly done away with odd and pointless quirks such as the bathroom in the lounge, the inside out, an ashtray to sit in etcetera that Patrick Watson goes out of his way to incorporate. However it remains to be seen whether they haven't just hidden them in other rooms or if there are any other saving graces.

Let's hope the rest of the house lives up to the ads and hints.

It does look as though with the living room supposedly the other end of the garden this year, that empty space is just there as a foyer with the doors on either side leading too rooms.

So I think we should wait before we get ourselves worked up about it. Tuesday we'll see the rest.

Perhaps it's so small because there's two houses, perhaps those curved walls are symmetrical either side but with a wall between them.
