Well Ive had a few days for the show to sink in and I must say I thought it was OK... just OK.

The show seemed a little rushed but at the same time it didnt feel like there was a hugh amount behind each part to make the show longer.

The show just never seemed to really start properly and came across a little weak to start with.

The principle of the show is great and I think the content was there to make it what it should have been... post-production has let it down (imho).

I did feel that the drama of the situations came across well.

I also felt that the machines in this show were a little un-eventful. Both went through some pretty involved ideas, of course the show never really developed these to give the viewer the insight that the teams would have had... Whos idea was the vacuum clutch

An hour slot would do it far more justice, the ability to delve just that little bit deeper into whats going on, it was a little too glancing

Maybe 50 mins like the slot for Horizon to get into a little more detail of the building and a little less into the fact that they were using bits from the house - we knew that already as it was explained at the beginning and it is the whole point of the show.

BTW I will be checking the make of everyones washing machine and what colour their bog and seat is :wink:

imho they should have used the same method as with the scrapheap challenge. interview, watch the build, take some time to explain the idea. it would help.

i think an hour slot would be better too
