2. Hello There We have recently purchased a large farmhouse (renovation project) in North Italy.Our Project manager(Expat)has strongly advised us to contact you as he thinks it would make a Fantastic Grand Designs episode. Anyway having thought about it and being a big fan of this show i would tend to agree. I am not sure of the process in contacting you or what you need to know from us however we would be delighted to share some pictures of this building on your request or pointing us in the right direction to who we should be contacting. Many Thanks Julian

3. Hello, Just wondering if there is ever going to be a "Where are they now" Grand Designs follow up format show. Many houses are nowhere near completed at the end of the shows episode and it would great to go back and find out how it all looked in the end OR what happened to the owners who felt they may have to sell because they ran over budget and couldnt complete the project. ie Who owns it now and how was it completed etc. This is often mentioned amongst those of family and friends I know watch the show althougth I am sure we are viewing quite old episodes as we are based in Australia. Nontheless enjoy the show and hope you might one day do an Australia special- We have some fantastic award winning houses here in Australia - architect built of course and I am sure you would have no trouble finding applicants for the show. Cheers Julie South Coast Australia

4. Hello, I've just recently got married, and my new wife and I are now hoping to start a family. Thing is, I'm becoming obsessed with building my own carbon-neutral house. It is starting to keep me awake at night. My main problem, is I have no idea when to start. So, if Ch4 wish to broadcast a show about a naive tv-phobic, then I'm your man. I need all the help you can offer! Kindest regards, Lee Coombs

6. One of our favourite Grand Designs was Tom Perry's house in Amersham. We would love to know if he finished it and is he still living there? How about a follow up to fill in all those unfinished details.

8. Apparently there are more and more of us deciding to (or having to) consider "three generation" living; 80,000 households and counting! There are many reasons to go 3G; the elderly parents need some help, the middle generation need to reduce their mortgage, or need some child care support, we can't have a mortgage and a job on one income after the divorce, redundancy looms or even, wait for it, I still love my parents even though I'm middle aged! Going 3G is fraught with issues that you all need to consider and sort out, however. Having taken this step three years ago, and still being sane and solvent, I decided to launch a not-for-profit website to assist other folk who are thinking of doing the same. The website is now launched and could really do with some public input. If you are thinking of going 3G, or indeed if you have tried it and disliked it, or tried it and succeeded, then I'd love you to visit and comment, ask questions, offer advice or just read. I don't think this post contravenes the rules of this website so hopefully we will see you at www.3generation.org.uk soon. Thanks Rus

9. We are visiting the U.K. love your show and watch it twice a week in Australia. We are about to start a "Grand Design" on an old Australian colonial homestead in New South Wales, circa 1832.Very old by Australian standards!!! We have around six months work on a house we built in Crete, Greece, and before starting the new exciting project in Australia. We think this may be good subject matter for your programme, and would be pleased to hear from you. Many Thanks Bob

11. Hi Clare I've looked on the website for a pic - it's the Bristol Sugar Cube house, I think - but can't see anything here (although we do have galleries of every Grand Designs house ever, that particular angle of that house isn't there). You might want to try the magazine people - contacts above.
