Series Numbering Wrong?

[edit]

The details of the series here differ greatly from Channel 4's own listings on the Grand Designs episode guide:

http://www.channel4.com/programmes/grand-designs/episode-guide

In particular, while looking for an episode listed here as series 6, I found that series 5 and 6 here, are actually all series 5 on the Grand Designs page (plus some or all of series 7).

I haven't the time or inclination to list the changes myself, but thought it worth flagging. ChrisMalme (talk)

It's actually Channel 4's guide which is wrong, and it has been for years :-(. The episodes listed here are what was actually broadcast, in the correct years/series as first shown. It would be a complete disaster if this guide was changed to match the incorrect C4 guide! Also this guide is the only one which has proper Episode titles in a consistent form. Again, no thanks to C4 or any of the listings over the years. Even now all these years later, repeats on More4 arrive without episode titles, and you have to guess from the synopsis which episode will be shown ahead of the broadcast.

I agree - thank goodness for this site; the Channel 4 listings are all over the bloody place. Stephend01 (talk) 03:45, 24 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The latest channel 4 episode guide doesn't even seem to use series numbering any longer, they list the year instead. 212.159.20.238 (talk) 13:03, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Miami Beach House revisited?

[edit]

In my collection of videos I have an episode identified as episode 14 of series 9 which is missing from the listings here. It is a revisited episode on the project previously featured in series 5 episode 10, Miami Style Beach House. I don't have any details of air date or a reference for it, so haven't added it in myself. 212.159.69.4 (talk) 10:48, 5 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xm12ak_grand-designs-s09e14-the-beach-house-east-devon-revisited_tech? On screen, this is said to be covering the period of October 2004 to October 2005, and from a quick glance it doesn't appear to be a revisit. --Tim Landscheidt (talk) 02:49, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Possible copyvio

[edit]

Several series (16, 17, 18 and possibly more) match the descriptions at Radio Times word-for-word. Is anyone familiar with this source and whether or not it's likely to be copied from Wikipedia? –dlthewave 02:28, 3 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Viewership Scale

[edit]

Seasons 13, 14, and 15 show viewership numbers in the trillions. Presumably these are in the millions in reality, but the column header ("millions") was not noticed by the author? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.160.134.131 (talk) 12:33, 21 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revisited episodes removed

[edit]

Why have the 'revisited' episodes been removed from this list? They are classed as separate episodes and have additional content from the original episodes - they are listed as separate episodes on Granddesigns.tv so it seems to make more sense to include them? The current revision significantly reduces the episodes of the show produced and misrepresents the programme. SignorSimon (talk) 12:04, 26 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
