Stupid...
The chapel episode is on,now,I didn’t see it,first time round.How absolutely unbelievable,expecting 2 rank amateurs to tackle that kind of job,and to complete it and have it sold,at a profit,in 6 months.Of course they then bring in Brookside Simon,and his band of Merry men,to throw up the walls.In the real world that would cost a packet.The whole thing is stupid,stupid,stupid.Oh,and stupid,too.

Fees
They must be auction fees,plus 6 months of council tax on top.The whole show is wrong.Everyone has their full-time job to maintain.No say in how much budget they will need(real developers do their research).The whole thing is badly thought out.

GreatHouse Takeaway
Yep That’s the correct title for this SCAM of a programme,Two strangers giving up 6 months of their time to renovate a house for nothing to show financially at the end,The people that walk away mid term are the real stars of this pathetic rip off format to line the pockets of others...modern day slavery

Poor contestants?
Do you not think they get paid to take part?

So unfair
These poor contestants are being used to make a tv programme. They have been set up to fail, most of the properties couldn’t be done up properly in 6 months in spare time. I hope they are paid for appearing on this programme. You have used people who are not in a good position in the first place, Shameful

The Great House Giveaway?
Surely the title of the programme is against the Trade Descriptions Act. There is no Giveaway on this show, only 6.months hard graft for a big fat zero cheque in return
