I inserted the infobox. While not completely filled in yet, it improves the article's apperance. --Christhebull 19:51, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Good addition Chris. By the way, does anyone know the name of the theme tune from this show? It's a classical piece with harps playing. -- Drumnbach 12:45, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Damien Hirst Chelsea/Devon projects

I saw an episode of Grand Designs featuring two projects being undertaken by Damien Hirst and his partner - yet there doesn't seem to be a record of this episode anywhere. Was this a one-off special?

Have you looked at the list of houses in the C4 website, [1] --Salix alba (talk) 07:30, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 'Lost' early episode ???

Can anyone remember which series of Grand Designs aired the following episode please: a couple in their 30s moved into an old Georgian house - the woman was a make-up artist, I forget what the guy did (besides a lot of work on the property). The couple, along with Kevin, visited a few Georgian houses along with visiting a property owned by TV presenter Dan Cruickshank. By the end of the episode the couple had only finished one room, but that room was completely transformed and looked stunning. I could swear this episode was in series 1 or 2 but I have both of those series on DVD and cannot find that episode, OR any mention of it on the Grand Designs web site. It's not listed for the new series 3 DVD set either. Any ideas please? Thanks -- Gaunt 10:19, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

No ideas on this anyone please? Gaunt 14:56, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
I've found out a little bit more about this episode now - the owners were called Tony and Sharon and Grand Designs carried out a revisit on 17th September 2002. VERY strange that it's not mentioned on the official site though. Gaunt 19:27, 8th March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Series 5 Episode List

I finished linking all the episodes to the official site. Since the fifth series list was blank on the Wikipedia page I couldn't get that one done properly. So what I did was add all the episodes I could find that were NOT LISTED in any other series. Six episodes in all.

I can't find an episode guide anywhere online so I don't know how accurate it is, or if there were any "Revisited" episodes in that series.

Anyone know?

[edit] Series 3 Episode List versus Series 3 DVDs

Having just purchased Series 3 on DVD I see that there is a 'missing' episode when compared to the list here, specifically the 'inverted V roof, Cloud 8'. There are only 7 episodes on the DVD set as opposed to 8 for series 1 and 2. Any thoughts? Gaunt 14:59, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
