    Great show but Caroline iQuentin s a liability

    This is a great show and Piers is an amazing architect who could probably hold this show on his own. However, Caroline Quentin is an embarrassment and should be removed immediately. The homes are wonderful and their construction techniques and stories are woven well into the fabric of the show.

    Great Show with Awesome Hosts

    Saw some critics about the host, especially the lady Caroline. I totally disagree. The architect guy is very calm and knowledgeable, and Caroline adds excitement and vivid life flavor into the show. I think they are a perfect combination and make the show very interesting to see regardless how much architecture knowledge you have.

    Interesting but flawed

    Most of the houses are really unique and stunning. But in only 4 episodes of ths series, there were some repetitive things Like the talk about fitting a house into nature, keeping lots of trees on the building site and so on. I don't think the female host is that horrible as people say, but she isn't an architect, engineer, interior designer or antyhing. So her comments are mostly useless. What bothered me was, that only the architects talk about how the house was built. I know there's a limited time for each house, but at least for the cliff house, they should have interviewed the engineers, too. People often think that architects create whole buildings and know how to build them, but the engineers and builders seem unimportant. It would be interesting to know for the cliff house how it is really fixed on that cliff and why did they build it from top to bottom. The architects clearly couldn't explain that. Of course you can't show all the builders and people involved, but anyone else than just the architect would bring in more perspective and make the show more interesting. I hope this show gets another season and tries a little to pick up on those flaws.

    Unbearable Caroline Quentin

    Would be a good show if only this annoying lady kept her mouth shut. I stopped watching this, couldn't hear any more S O S O E X T R A O R D I N A R Y.

    Great home show, one floor...

    Piers is interesting, knowledgable and calm. I've watched a few shows featuring him and always enjoyed them so when I saw this had hit Netflix I went straight for it. Caroline on the other hand must be the most annoying person I've ever seen. I literally cringed in every scene she was in which peaked when she was crushing on a married Norwegian man right before meeting his wife. That aside the show is an enjoyable watch which would be made only better with less/no screen time for Caroline and a different presenter to bounce off Piers' enthusiasm. Nice to see this kind of content on Netflix and would quite enjoy some more.

    ***Update*** - Just watched an episode of Season 2 and Caroline seems a completely different person! Pleasure to watch...
