In the penultimate show of the series, the pressure is really mounting as our two designers go head to head to claim that final position. The challenge our two designers have to conquer is transforming two rooms in pretty thatched cottages in Ashby St Ledgers. Both designers are tasked with transforming a living room and a dining room. Judging them are regulars Kelly Hoppen and Daniel Hopwood and back to help them, acting as an extra pair of eyes, is guest judge Michelle Ogundehin, editor in chief of Elle Decoration.

The designers have two rooms to transform over 48 hours across three days, a team of two builders and two decorators, a budget of 拢2,000 to use for both rooms and they both have to complete one room on day two. Their imaginations and design juices are put to the test again as they are both given a surprise item to cleverly incorporate into their overall schemes.

This time, both designers are unwittingly using the same colour - blue - but will this help or hinder their chances with the judges? Will one designer be able to reassure their client that blue is the way forward and be able to fulfill the brief, especially since Dan isn't sure the colour works for dining rooms? Meanwhile, the other designer is seriously out to impress, but will the use of a very detailed and overpowering matching blue print for wallpaper and curtains impress the homeowners or put them off? It could be a design risk too far. Will Michelle Ogundehin agree with Daniel and Kelly or put a cat amongst the pigeons?

Meanwhile, architectural historian Tom Dyckhoff discovers the beauty and origins of olde world picturesque country cottage living and the characteristics of thatched dwelling.
