    I've watched endless episodes of this show, and this is the first time I've seen Phil so obviously irritated. Sue will never be happy. The first clue she was going to be trouble was that she was ok with her sister living in a "renovated" shed for nine months so that she and Alan didn't have to compromise on the house they bought.

As for Sue, with hubby and moggies being dragged through her demands kaliedoscope, you attract what you put out. Stress and inflexibility... begets further stress. Please, take NOTE how the lovely couple put out... and received. As for poor battle weary Phil? YOU, dear sir, deserve a medal the size of a sewer plate.... for tolerance and patience, above and beyond the call of human capability, in dealing with the likes of Sue. Much admiration Phil... a virtual hug being sent to you. There, there Phil. Sue is NOT your fault.

    Newsflash to the Aussie couple: If they can't afford a ready made house in their ideal location, what makes them think that they can afford to build their ideal house in their ideal location? During the land search, planning and building, they'll be paying rent for a long time. So their budget for a new home will be much smaller, unless they can talk another relative to move into a shed and loaning them their house. 😂

    Indeed. . .Phil should be automatically made a Saint!! On this one, after little Miss I'm Not Going to Compromise was perfectly ok with her sister's willingness to compromise and sleep in a shed, maybe homelessness would have been a good teachable, not to mention humbling moment! Insufferable. She was already fortunate in having the money making possible the purchase of a home and having choices! She needs to volunteer in a homeless shelter, although that would require her to compromise. . . . . . . . . . . .

    Hats off to Phil for keeping his shit together with these people because I sure wouldn't have. How rude to not even go in when he had spent time and effort to find them a home. They were terrible to work with, constantly changing their idea of what they wanted.

    It is for heating but also because these small houses used to be home to extended family such as grandparents and aunts/uncles over the centuries and doors were needed for separate spaces. I’m a British Canadian and once procured a great house for friends who emigrated to Canada and they remodeled and put up walls and doors throughout the house!

    Personally, open plan is my worst nightmare. When I'm cooking a large meal I do not want people underfoot. When I'm serving a 5 or 6 coarse meal I most definitely do not want my guests seeing the mess in the kitchen, because there is no way I am washing dishes between courses. Plus I love having a formal dining room as well as a more formal reception room, rather like rooms that used to be known as drawing rooms.

You're one of these people who thinks that if they just go in the garden and eat worms Daddy will be a long to pick them up and comfort them and give them everything they wanted plus a lolly. Just no.

    Unless the UK has become completely Americanized (and from my last visit, I'd say it's well on its way), what Americans call a back yard is called a garden over there. I never called the outside of my house in England the yard, even though it was a lot smaller than what I call my yard here in California.
