You can see piles of stuff everywhere through the patio window shot. They can't get in the place to photograph it.

I thought that too, but it doesn't usually stop them, and the garden seems too "nice" to have recently had 20 rotting fridges removed from it.

You say that though but in my house that got trashed (like letting their dog piss/poo all over the house to the point it had leaked through the upstairs onto the ceilings below, and downstairs had a river of piss underneath the flooring when it was ripped up, alongside mushrooms growing in the boiler, beyond disgusting toilets etc :cry: )

Garden (front and back) was lovely :mog:

I felt it was a “keeping up appearances” attempt with the neighbours externally whilst inside was like an explosion of every possible filth.

I am not averse to a 'lived in' look, but just can't fathom how anyone can live like that, Pov. The smell alone must be unbearable.

If you are so grim that you let your dog piss on the floor then you probably aren’t that bothered about personal hygiene though… or notice that it’s all rather grim…

It is both hilarious and nostalgic at once. From normal people through to the very posh and each one quite extraordinary. :))
GOAT! I am watching this now. It's incredible. The snobbishness is outstanding.

ISN'T IT BRILLIANT?! Everyone is such a snob. I liked the couple who considered coasters frightfully common. And the one who tiled up only one of the two alcoves to be a bit different.

This house is nice enough (although not my style of decor) but I'd feel a bit wary about using the wet room.

Is it in the kitchen/utility? Maybe it's to sluice down the dog?

I wondered that too! I think they are doll's clothes on hangers, but why?

I thought they were dolls clothes too at first but I think it’s just a normal rail of clothes at the back of the room, cut off by the chest of drawers.

And they say it's grim up North :)

I am Lol'ing at the dolls clothes, that is just what they look like. I am wondering how many clothes these people have if they cant fit everything in one of the many wardrobes.

The Chester looks like it has a mirrored top too, and the rail and hangers are reflected in it.

A mirrored top on a chest of drawers is such a horrible idea. :lol:
