FunTranscript
00:00we got a week until the kitchen is arriving so all of this needs to be done before then
00:06walls and ceilings are really important actually underrated sometimes
00:11he's a good boy what keeps us going in between the highs and lows of the whole renovation project
00:20is when we can get together and do things as a family oh they're bringing it out any little
00:26tiny mistake and the whole glass table top could shatter into a million pieces I'm getting nervous
00:33now that's the end whose idea was it about a hundred feet of lights mr. with some guests
00:42coming in a few weeks it's going to be really nice to have the Sun Terrace finished huh finally yeah
00:49it was like a big moment at the end of a long journey that's leprechaun green beautiful color I love the
01:04color but yeah it's not it's too bright the intensity at the moment so close to the end is ridiculous
01:15well if he doesn't do it on Thursday it won't be done in time because he's only got Thursday
01:21in front it's pushing it already I'm just having to leave it all in John's hands I don't it just
01:30couldn't be worse timing really we'll do it we're fine
01:35so lucky we are I think it's pretty touch and go as to whether everything will be finished on time
01:46for the housewarming party it's too close to call
01:49on the Costa del Sol the renovation project is heating up with the first floor and basement
02:08finished the heart of the house is starting to near completion the kitchen's in now the fun starts
02:17because we feel like we're so close to the end of the renovation we thought it would be nice to hold
02:23a little summer party slash housewarming and just a way of saying thanks to all those people that have
02:30helped along the way the party is in a little over a week away and there's still a long list of jobs
02:37left to complete I do feel like if we're gonna get this party across the line for the start of summer
02:44to sort of celebrate the end of the renovation we might be cutting it down to the wire slightly
02:49as they approach the finish line the jobs that are left are largely skilled building work that
02:56Jasmine and John aren't qualified to help with there are lots of jobs happening all at once there's work
03:05going on in practically every corner of this house but needs must we've got to get it all done but what
03:13she can do is try and keep Dominic and his team to their schedule after an extensive hunt to find
03:20balustrades to finish off the exterior staircase he has managed to source ones that match the 30 year old
03:26design of the originals in a local builders yard ah that's good this it's like looking for gold this
03:34slightly what it's like looking for gold how do you mean getting one of these in stock oh you managed
03:41to find one though yeah and they've got the rest of these lovely but um something like that we'll just
03:48get rid of that last post yeah how do you attach it to the chemical anchor chemical anchor and because
03:54it's big and square it just puts that last bit of strength in there amazing it's worked really
04:00well oh thank you elsewhere outside the tiling of the stairs down to the basement is proceeding at pace
04:09you can hear you can hear the tile cutting going on they're doing the stairs the stair risers which is
04:17brilliant I'll be so happy when they're done it will set the whole thing off but as you can hear it's
04:22super noisy here there is no escape from this racket
04:34I've chosen quite a traditional tile for the stair risers because I think it's in keeping with the
04:41traditional style of this house I think those stairs would be so boring if you had the same tile on every
04:50single part but the fact we've got quite a modern tile on the top which extends down to the patio but then a really
04:56beautiful traditional style tile on the risers it just makes them much more of a feature
05:02however one feature they have had little control of is the neighbor's wall it remains unfinished as their builder has become ill
05:11what are we going to do about the wall in the garden but we can't really got any control over that have we
05:16no shall I phone my neighbor and see I just phone her and just sound it out and see what's happening now
05:24with the wall stalling the garden progress for now the attention is on getting the exterior of the house up to scratch
05:34there are lots of areas of the house that haven't been painted yet Carlos and Martin did the front of the house
05:44and so there's still the side and the back of the house to do
05:51Dominic's team are painting inside too Jasmine wants to paint the alcove shelves green and a sample of the color that she wants is already up
06:05so I think it's going to be quite a dark color I think that's the idea I think I need to see the paint in the flesh rather than looking at it on a screen to see if it's going to work
06:18because that's probably a bit too green I can already see yeah it's too dark in it it's not too dark it's not pastel enough is it sort of
06:26it needs to be more of a grey green it is hard to have the confidence to paint a wall green
06:31I think revamping them by painting this beautiful really deep green color will really make them look
06:40much more attractive once you've got beautiful things on the shelves and you know it'll make the
06:46fireplace really stand out so it's just a question of finding the right shade of green
06:53the next day Dominic has painted the alcoves in the new green that Jasmine wants to test how the color
07:09looks on a big surface so we've had a color match uh for this green and uh it hasn't matched that well
07:19Jasmine's come up it it should have a hint of grey in it and it doesn't it's really green we're not
07:27happy with it but Jasmine hasn't seen it yet so we're waiting
07:30ah it looks yes doesn't look exactly like the one I chose I don't think no a bit more greeny like
07:44grass green isn't it it is we haven't got that grey tinge to it so is that the one I chose and
07:53that's the one that they've given you when they tried to match it so on the left is the paint color
07:58we want the one you chose yeah I mean it's a nice color but I don't I think it's not quite that's
08:03leprechaun green it's not quite leprechaun is it but it is I mean it's a beautiful color I love the
08:08color so I share but but yeah it's not it's too bright knowing that Jasmine might not like it
08:14Dominic has created a new shade of green by mixing in some off-white paint like I want it not the same
08:23color as the kitchen but a similar muted sort of gray green but darker than the kitchen yeah now
08:31now number two mix is this one so it's very close to that right very very close that looks much better
08:42yeah it's very good unfortunately our timber the one for the wood is coming out drastically that's the
08:53same as that no or that I don't think any of them are exactly the same I'll give that another coat see
09:01how it looks when it's dry just to make sure because some paints they just a bit more depth
09:05and they changed I don't think you'll ever paint a piece of wood and paint the wall and it be identical
09:11colors with the same color pattern it just doesn't happen the decision is made to paint over the area and
09:19the wooden doors of the cupboards with the new blend that Dominic has created and then they will assess
09:25the overall effect well let me know how you get on I'll come and have a look once that once we've got
09:31that woodwork paint sorted all right thank you after making that big decision another one Jasmine made
09:42a while ago is being delivered I've been putting off getting the big furniture for the living room
09:50like the sofa because we didn't have space anywhere to store it and I didn't want it to get ruined
09:56before we'd even had a chance to use it but when the sofa arrived still a bit too early really we're
10:03not ready for it it's really exciting along with the other jobs on the to-do list the deadline is
10:10focusing minds the party's coming up incredibly soon and so we need to start getting the furniture in
10:19otherwise we risk not having it there on the day in Estepona it's a hive of activity at the house
10:40even joy and Albion are getting involved you know old dining room table what about painting the legs
10:49green to match the new green cupboards that mommy's done okay I mean painting is not my forte I think
10:59we've learned not a lot is my forte when it comes to DIY but Albion did all those months back painting his
11:05bedside table and that came out looking pretty good so yeah I mean I think the problem with the
11:10kids is their attention span I imagine we'll start the legs and I'll be the one finishing the legs you
11:16ready that's it look well done this is so satisfying it's satisfying right that's how satisfying it'll be
11:25when you're eating your dinner off your fancy new table that you two have done yourselves
11:28are you looking forward to the renovating ending yes we can finally be in a house that's not dusty
11:37it will finally be in a house that doesn't have lots of tradesmen and also for the rest of the
11:46summer holidays you can have lions without being woken up by hammering and drilling and cutting and
11:51grinding yeah throughout the renovation with the environment and budget in mind Jasmine and John
11:59have tried to recycle what they can it's good out good work this table was one of the first things we
12:07bought to put in this house it was 80 euros with four chairs and now we're going to use it again and
12:15we're giving it a new lease of life maybe we could paint your nose green and give you a new lease of
12:20life sounds fun I volunteer you wanted to have your nose painted no to the paint his nose we just
12:30rolled over any bits where it's like thick over that corner how is doing under there like a mechanic
12:36this is underneath a car fixing it whoa two more legs to go and the backs yeah I do worry that in the
12:46last few weeks of focusing on renovation we've kind of neglected the kids of it so even spending half
12:53an hour painting a table leg is nice with the legs requiring a few coats of paint it'll be a few days
13:01before the table is ready another job Jasmine and John want to strike off their to-do list is getting
13:08their driveway gates installed we've had to build a new column just to take the weight of the gate we've
13:15liaised with the gate guy who hasn't got the gate yet it's quite a mechanism hopefully it will turn up
13:21we had a three week lead time and we're very close to six weeks now so as you can imagine it's not the
13:29greatest from one problem outside that's out of their control to one inside that John can shed some
13:37light on well the one thing we've slightly realized that is because these kitchen is from a showroom they're
13:45obviously giving you the two options of colors of lights a nice warm light and a much less nice daylight
13:55so currently that's my worst nightmare as a I mean that literally is my pet hate if you stay in a hotel
14:03that has mixed color temperatures lighting it does my head in so we'll have to solve that somehow this is white
14:09but we want this one it's like tungsten okay yeah it's better warm warm with the housewarming party
14:27around the corner Jasmine still needs to tackle an untouched room our bedroom has been the very last
14:36priority of everything because we're trying to get the children's areas done and then trying to get
14:43the all the communal areas done but what I would love to see in here is a really calming space where
14:52I can just come and relax that day will come one day I'm sure so this bed we bought together with Joy's
15:05bed and both beds were upholstered with like a grey linen but underneath was this nice velvet which I
15:11actually prefer so I just took off the linen and we've got a brand new bed I've had to move the bed
15:19out of the way because the electrician was fitting this light fitting it was a bit low actually but I
15:24think because it's over the bed it will be fine so I'm gonna try and move the bed back into its normal
15:30position and then I can get all the furniture in place and get rid of all the other junk not sure
15:35how heavy it is okay it's like driving a very big car when I bent down did that sound like I farted
15:49voila with orders for bedside tables and furnishings yet to arrive finishing the main bedroom will be down to the wire
16:11when Jasmine and John started their build they thought it would have been finished by now however
16:20with delays accumulating over the course of the renovation the house is still a building site
16:31so with Jasmine's family in town for a special occasion they are taking a much-needed break from the
16:38renovation we are having a nice family boat trip today to celebrate my sister's birthday and she's out
16:46here with the rest of the family we had a really nice afternoon out on our boats and that was a good
17:03break because I had no phone signal yes but reality returns as soon as they reach the shore with a few
17:19days until the housewarming party they have received news on the driveway gates we've had a couple of minor
17:28obstacles with getting the driveway finished the gates have been slightly delayed the manufacturer
17:38has said there's a small complication with the center post so they're working on it they're going to get
17:45it to us as soon as possible I don't know how soon that's going to be but as I'm coming to realize
17:51nothing is ever straightforward with an uncertainty as to whether the gates will arrive in time for the
17:59housewarming party there is however better news in the living area Quinn has been painting the wooden
18:05elements of the lounge unit with Dominic's new mix of the green paint
18:09uh how's the green I think it's a good match I mean it looks good here yeah especially those
18:19little handles yeah because that looks very different at the moment today that's got more
18:23natural light on it though it's a really good match oh it's good and it's and I was skeptical but now it's
18:28done it's good yeah I take it back jazz was right again well yeah I'll do a great everybody said that
18:34everybody's gone no and then looked at it and gone oh no it's fine actually that's good a few
18:39ornaments in there will get even better won't it at this stage of the process we just need everything
18:43yeah we can't change anything got to look nice
18:46with the work paused for the evening there's nothing more they can do
18:56except continue the celebrations for the birthday girl and finally put the basement area through its paces
19:11it's just a bit tricky because obviously we don't have a proper kitchen and it's really dusty and the
19:18garden is full of mud and tiles and stuff like that but we're not letting that dampen our spirits
19:26we're still enjoying time together and we are still celebrating her birthday so it's so nice to have
19:42them here
19:44happy birthday to you
19:48aww that's nice
19:50make a wish
19:51make a wish big wish
19:52make a wish big wish
19:56come on hey hey
19:58yay
19:59we miss them a lot and wish we could see more of them
20:02I can't imagine how stressful this is because I've only been here for two days and it's hard work living in a house where the kitchen is
20:10not finished and you're and that kind of thing but it looks like it's going to be fantastic
20:17we still have quite a mountain to climb and it feels like we've still got quite a lot ahead of us
20:24and mountain is tall the time to get up there is very short
20:29this renovation has been all consuming for us over the last few months and the intensity at the moment so close to the end is ridiculous
20:45it's gone to the next level so it never stops you know we have of course taken some time off to be with the family but it's straight back into it
20:57on the costa del sol
21:11there's good news with the neighbours adjoining wall allowed builder matt and the team to crack on
21:18finally things are starting to happen with this wall my neighbours got a new builder who seems to be very good and they've been working on it so that we can get this side finished so the guys have already red gripped it ready to be plastered rendered
21:39the light fittings can be on because the electricity is there ready we've got so little time left before everyone's coming round to see our house and to appreciate everything it's cutting it really fine now
21:56to try and get this garden done in the time that we've got and that wall well we can just hope for a miracle
22:04though it's not finished having the basic wall constructed work can now begin on the garden
22:11we are so lucky with this house because we have the most lovely neighbours Maria and Manuel and their children live next door and Manuel is a gardener and when he saw the stay of the garden after the builders had terrorised it he said would you like me to do this
22:33would you like me to come and help you with the garden and I was like yes please because I'm so bad with gardens
22:40preparing the soil is the first step with the garden and we can do that straight away then we can put in the plants and we can put turf down because the grass is gone now the grass is completely wrecked and when we have the housewarming party it would be really nice if the garden was green and I think it would just finish it off
23:00to be honest turfing it is a more expensive solution but it is also a much quicker solution and at the moment time is of the essence
23:09with the builders and gardeners done for the day Jasmine John Joy and Albion take a step off site and a step back onto the court
23:22amazingly it's been almost five months to the week since I broke my leg playing paddle and yet it feels in the last few weeks I finally stopped limping which feels like a good achievement
23:34I mean I'm definitely going to take it easy being that it's the first game back but also today feels feels like a big moment at the end of a long journey
23:53yes Joy
23:57yes Joy
24:00mommy
24:02ah
24:03Joy got two great returns mommy
24:06I tell you I could never get the hand eye coordination
24:10like I think the racket is longer than it is
24:12Joy you can do it
24:13I am hopeless
24:16I I wouldn't quite say I'm a lost cause but close so I think if I was to do it more regularly I'd get better
24:25ah
24:26I think I have some sort of problem with spatial awareness
24:29I should have some lessons why don't you give me some lessons
24:32I'm not sure I can teach spatial awareness no don't
24:35ready
24:37yeah
24:38tonight feels like a really pivotal moment my leg break sort of surprised us all and has genuinely has dominated far too much of this year
24:51so it feels like from this point onwards we can sort of push any leg issues or worries behind us
24:58we can move forward with family life and the life that we intended the reason we moved out here
25:05it feels like it can begin again
25:07good game here's to many more happy paddle games
25:11yeah
25:12it almost feels like we are coming full circle and we're coming through a pretty dark tunnel where you know John broke his leg
25:24then he got thrombosis then he had a heart attack and all of that coinciding with all of the renovation of the house
25:33I can finally see light at the end of the tunnel
25:45with the neighbors wall now heading in the right direction Jasmine is hopeful that the garden will be turfed in time for the housewarming party
25:52so she heads off to get some plants
25:57I absolutely love garden centers I could just walk around all day spending money it's a nightmare
26:03I shouldn't be trusted in a garden center
26:06the main things that I'm looking for today are some nice plants for the garden
26:11that are colorful indigenous plants that we don't need loads of watering or don't need loads of maintenance
26:19I also need to look into how much it's going to cost me to buy topsoil
26:24I probably need a bit of advice on what to buy because I don't really know much about gardening at all
26:31Hello
26:33Hello
26:34Hello
26:35Hello
26:36Sorry, what are the best plants for the outside, which don't need much...
26:41How do you say?
26:42Maintainment
26:43Yes
26:44But with flowers very beautiful, greener every year
26:48Okay, if you want to see the outside area, I'll show you a more outside
26:51Yes, thank you
26:53Look, here it is the Pelagorri mosquito
26:56Oh, it has a Florida
26:59And it has a smell in the smell
27:02Yes
27:04Yes
27:05Yes
27:06Yes
27:07That's a smell in the mosquito
27:08But it has not much
27:09Yes
27:10Now, no, yes
27:11Because it has everything
27:12No
27:13It has many樣s
27:14It's a natural system, it's ecológico and it works.
27:19Look, here we have the bougainvillea.
27:23The bougainvillea.
27:24Of all the colors.
27:26Ah, yes.
27:27I love the bougainvillea.
27:29It's very typical of that area.
27:31Yes, and many people tell me that the bougainvillea should not have.
27:39Why?
27:40Because...
27:41Ah, it's a bit dirty.
27:43It's dirty.
27:44In the pool and in the garden.
27:46Is it true?
27:47Yes, yes.
27:48The tree falls a bit, it's dirty.
27:51But then the color is...
27:53Is it worth it?
27:54I think it's true.
27:55I think it's true.
27:56Yes, it's a unique color that is only made with the bougainvillea.
28:00I really think that plants and greenery just finish off a space.
28:04For me, it doesn't look finished if you haven't got plants there.
28:08Maybe this little one to get started.
28:13This tree is only 33 euros.
28:18Look how nice it is.
28:21Oh, that was close.
28:23Wow.
28:24These are amazing.
28:25This is mimosa and they have a beautiful yellow flower.
28:33When you touch them, the leaves all close up.
28:36It's really amazing.
28:37It's so weird.
28:38I'm going to take this one.
28:39It withers before your eyes.
28:44I feel like I've just come out with a random selection of plants that I like, but I'm not
29:02quite sure where each one's going to go.
29:04I'm sure each one will find its place in my home.
29:07It looks like a lot in the trolley, but I don't think it's going to even touch the sides once
29:11I get this lot home.
29:12I'll be back.
29:13For sure.
29:14Back at the house, builder Dominic has completed the balustrade for the stairs leading to the garden.
29:32Where we've installed the stairs from the ground floor balcony down to the garden level, we
29:40obviously had to take out a little bit of the balustrades.
29:42And so in order to make that safe and stable, we've had to put in a newel post, which is
29:48like the corner post, which keeps everything stable, solid.
29:53No one's going to lean on the balcony and it will all tumble down.
29:57John is lending a hand with a job that is within his skill set.
30:01Grouting on the outside of the basement window.
30:04Basically, we're running out of time.
30:06There's loads of tiles that aren't grouted.
30:09I'm trying to grout them before we have our party and everything else.
30:16I'm not sure grouting is my forte, but if you know by now, DIY is not my forte.
30:26I think that's really too much water.
30:27Tiny, tiny bit more.
30:28I think I've just used half their grow up.
30:29After mixing a fresh, thicker batch, John can proceed.
30:31I'm not sure if this is the right colour for this tile.
30:34I think it should be more of a pure white.
30:35I think it should be more of a pure white.
30:39Last time I actually grouted, it was the first flat jaz and I bought together.
30:40I think it should be more of a pure white.
30:41Last time I actually grouted, it was the first flat jaz I bought together.
30:42That was the last time I did any grouting.
30:43And that grouting is really hard.
30:47But it's a lot of things that are used after their grow up.
30:49And it's not much water now.
30:52After mixing a fresh, thicker batch, John can proceed.
30:57I'm not sure if this is the right colour for this tile.
31:01Or if it should be more of a pure white.
31:03Last time I actually grouted, it was the first flat jaz I bought together.
31:05That was the last time I did any grouting.
31:10did any grouting and that grouting looked terrible too. I think Jaz is going to come
31:16back and tell me this should be white because now I see it against the blue it's not quite
31:23right though. As he finishes off Jasmine is back from the garden centre to assess his
31:36work. I haven't had grout since that flat I haven't I forgot that you need so little water
31:43in your mixes that I basically trashed like half the bag of grout and had to throw it down
31:48the drain. This looks okay right? That looks really good. It's amazing how white that look
31:52compared to the stuff when it's not on a blue tile. Is it the same? Same grout. Same grout.
31:58It looks really good. Well done. With friends and family coming in a matter of days for their
32:04party there's still lots to finish. Everything is coming to a head. Everything is coming to
32:13the final decisions. The last big push to get everything across the line. To be honest I'm
32:19finding it quite stressful. And there is an added complication. I've got to go to work in Portugal.
32:29It couldn't have come at a worse time really. But I have been postponing this particular shoot
32:41until after the renovation was finished. But because we're so delayed now I couldn't postpone
32:49it any longer. And I'm literally bailing going away to work in the last few days before our
33:01housewarming party. So I'm just having to leave it all in John's hands. It just couldn't be
33:11worse timing really. I don't really know. I don't really know what's going to happen. Whether
33:19everything's going to fall apart when I go away. Or whether I'm not as indispensable as
33:26I thought I was and I'll come back and it'll all be done.
33:28On the Costa del Sol. Jasmine and John's dream family home is nearing completion. But they have
33:49to finish the living area, driveway gates, the garden wall, lay the new turf and add all the
33:57finishing touches. But they have to do all of it without Jasmine as she's about to leave
34:02for a work trip to Portugal. It feels a bit like the shoe is on the other foot. I'm normally
34:11abandoning Jas for work and she's got everything on her plate. So not only is there quite a
34:16lot to do for the party, try and sort out some sort of surprise entertainment, some cakes,
34:22but we also need to finish the house. Before she leaves, there's just time to do the final
34:30handover with the builders to sort out their plan for whilst Jasmine is away. The neighbour's
34:35wall is now built, but needs to be evened up with extra concrete, then rendered and finished. This
34:42all needs to happen before the garden turf can be laid, which Jasmine has already scheduled.
34:48It needs to be done by Wednesday. Remember? Remember we spoke about this. It needs to be
34:54done by Wednesday. It can't be done by Wednesday. I've got the gardener coming to put the turf
34:58down on Thursday. What's happened then? Has this changed? Because I thought it was going to be
35:04done by Wednesday. I've got like... Oh, God. You've got to bring it out and pack it out. If
35:09it was a normal brick wall, it would now be all capopinied, wouldn't it? But when you're
35:14trying to correct something else as well... I'll only push so much on at the time. Yeah, exactly.
35:18Bring it out, bring it out. It's literally about that much at the bottom, so you literally
35:21can't put that much cement on it, it'll just fall off. Well, if he doesn't do it on Thursday,
35:25it won't be done in time. No. Because he's only got Thursday and Friday, it's pushing it
35:30already. Yeah. That is exactly how it's going to go. Yeah. It's definitely down to the
35:36wide. I mean, obviously, we want to do it right in the first place. If we do it, even if
35:41it's finished, not that well. I think if he's finished, then I think he'll get the turf in.
35:44Has he got a moment to spend, though, that I think he'll do it? Because we'll give anybody
35:48something that needs to hand out. Yeah. So... But I think it will get there, it's just
35:52going to be last minute. Yeah, lad, yeah. Like everything for the last three weeks.
35:57Yeah. Thanks, chat. See you tomorrow. Right, guys, see you.
36:00Sorry for the added drama. Right. See you.
36:05We can't start the garden until the wall is plastered. And we've had so many delays already
36:13with that wall, which have been no fault of anyone. But it's taken a lot longer to get
36:19to this point than we expected. My mind was going at about a million miles an hour, trying
36:26to think of alternative ways to be able to get this all done in time.
36:35She'll just have to leave it up to John and the builders, as it's time for Jasmine to leave too.
36:41Sorry to leave you with all this. You've got even more on your plate now.
36:47That wall not going to be finished by the time we thought.
36:51Your time of being away is perfect. No, it's fine.
36:58You go away. You'll do it. It'll be fine.
37:02Don't get upset.
37:05Think how lucky we are.
37:07First world problem.
37:14Oh no, I'm sorry.
37:18Hormonal.
37:22Build a moan away.
37:23I'm basically stressed up to my eyeballs.
37:30Guilt up to my eyeballs as well.
37:33And, you know, just worried about leaving, worried about things not happening when they were supposed to.
37:42Worrying about leaving John, worrying about the kids.
37:45Okay.
37:47Well, phone me if you need anything.
37:51Will do.
37:53If not, I'll see you on the eve of our party.
37:56I know.
38:00Good luck.
38:01I'll get my bag.
38:02Drive safely.
38:11I think it's pretty touch and go as to whether everything will be finished on time for the housewarming party.
38:18It's too close to call.
38:31The next day, despite her departure, the work has to continue regardless.
38:36With one of the missing pieces of the jigsaw finally arriving.
38:41Hola.
38:43Is that the worktop?
38:46The worktop's arrived.
38:47The kitchen is very ready for a worktop.
38:50The worktop company have pulled out all the stops to get it here in time.
38:54Let's get it in.
38:56Not kind of fine at all.
38:59Three days before some sort of summer party or gathering.
39:04And we've got loads of deliveries still to come.
39:07The worktop's arriving.
39:09The tiles for the kitchen are arriving.
39:12I mean, I've sort of lost track.
39:14It's all slotting in perfectly.
39:16Bring on next week when it's all over.
39:17All over.
39:27This is where we hope it fits.
39:33Wow.
39:35And my big beef with the old workshop was you couldn't see when it was dirty.
39:39You're definitely going to see when this is dirty.
39:45It looks good.
39:46I mean, I did entirely leave the worktop decision to Jazz.
39:50I've seen a tiny sample.
39:52It's good.
39:53It looks like a worktop that I'll enjoy wiping obsessively every five minutes.
40:07It's getting there now, though.
40:08It's really getting there.
40:11Yeah, that's good, right?
40:12That's lovely.
40:13Those guys are really good.
40:14You can barely see the seam, can't you?
40:16That is a good worktop, eh?
40:17I mean, this one is...
40:18Where even is it?
40:19No, there isn't one.
40:20Well, there is one there.
40:21It goes through there, yeah?
40:22Yeah, yeah, yeah.
40:23I mean, it's so well done.
40:24Another sinks in.
40:26It's good.
40:27It's getting there.
40:28This level's nearly done.
40:29Final touches now and then we'll be there.
40:31Yeah.
40:32Fingers crossed.
40:33In theory, the tiling is not...
40:34It shouldn't take too long, because it's not that high, really.
40:37Is it two rows high you're going for?
40:38I was about to ask you the same question.
40:40Oh, sorry.
40:41I think we were going to go two rows.
40:42Yeah.
40:43I mean, really, it's just the finishes now.
40:45We need to finish that little bit of painting, because obviously that plaster was...
40:49Wet.
40:50A pain to dry.
40:51It seems to put the final tiles on, the fixtures and the lights, really.
40:56And I think that's it.
40:57In here.
40:58Well, and the tap, but...
40:59Yeah.
41:00Yeah, but the kitchen company are coming to do all that.
41:03Oh, perfect.
41:05With the worktop installed, the fitting company can now connect the water supply...
41:12And Dominic's team can start fitting the splashback tiles.
41:16John is also on hand to get the all-important lesson on how to operate his new gadget.
41:23Caliente?
41:24Caliente, siegrado.
41:25Y si ahora le haces un...
41:27Se apaga un prolongado, sale blue, azul.
41:31Este es filmcada.
41:32Ya podéis beber.
41:33Este agua filmcada.
41:36Ah, se filta?
41:37Sí, este.
41:40Ah, OK.
41:41Ah, perfecto.
41:43So, para caliente...
41:44Dos.
41:45Dos.
41:46Dos.
41:47Dos push.
41:48Y...
41:49Dos.
41:50Ah, no, ah.
41:51Dos.
41:52And right.
41:53Este caliente.
41:54Pero atención, eh.
41:55Sí, sí, sí.
41:56Cin grado.
41:57Y ahora.
41:58Fría.
41:59Cuando es...
42:00Ahora.
42:01Fría, prolongado, long.
42:02Blue, right.
42:03Y gira.
42:04Blue, right.
42:05Ah, and now it's the white.
42:06Ah, OK.
42:07My Spanish plumbing chat is very sketchy.
42:10There's a few leaks in my vocabulary, let's just say.
42:15And so, yeah, it's...
42:17Again, it's one of those awkward moments where I'm just like, yeah.
42:20Muy bien, muy bien.
42:21Wow.
42:22Not just caliente, but boiling.
42:24I understood snippets of him explaining how the fancy tap worked.
42:29Um, but yeah, I think I understood about 40% of what he said.
42:34Jazz and I love a kitchen gadget.
42:37I think the kitchen is some of the places in the house for the best gadgets, right?
42:42A boiling water tap.
42:43I mean, I know it's a first world problem.
42:46But if you can stretch your budget into a boiling water tap, it is the best.
42:52But not everything is going as swimmingly.
42:55The seaming lights being installed have hit a snag.
42:58It's not...
42:59It won't go, innit?
43:00It's all right.
43:01It's long, innit?
43:03It's long, innit?
43:04They're so long, yeah.
43:05Yeah, I'll keep your feet warm upstairs in the bedroom, that will.
43:08Well, I hope they have LED on, mate.
43:10Oh, no, they're not.
43:11Are they LED?
43:12No.
43:13Yeah, it's OK.
43:14I think you're about three mil.
43:15I think you will.
43:16If you're all right.
43:18Hang on.
43:19I'm going to hide in the basement for five minutes.
43:27With Jazz going away, and an ever-increasing list of things to complete,
43:31the pressure feels like it's really on.
43:34It feels really satisfying that the finish line is in sight,
43:37but it does feel a little bit like someone keeps popping up hurdles
43:41on your way to said finish line,
43:43and the said finish line keeps slightly moving back,
43:46like some sort of mirage in the desert.
43:48At this point in the proceedings, I am quite concerned that we've got a list
43:54that is bigger than the amount of time we have to do it in for our housewarming party.
43:58The house is sort of under control.
44:08Nothing to panic about.
44:10That wall is giving us a lot of grey hair.
44:12We're going to have this lovely party.
44:14Just behind us is going to be this grey, ugly beast.
44:18Don't mind me out.
44:20In hindsight, maybe I shouldn't have called her.
44:23Guitarist, una guitarista.
44:26I can't even say the bloody basics.
44:27How am I going to get a band?
44:28So I've got that one, I've got that one,
44:30but then the little ones haven't arrived.
44:33Oh, no.
44:36We're exhausted, but we're ready to party.
44:39It's actually making me emotional.
45:09Ypres game is we're ready for the video.
45:11Fire in thepic.
45:13Time is payoffs.
45:14Follow us on their hook.
45:17Okay, see that there are endless differences.
45:23Stop it.
45:24When it's done,
45:26we don't change and point.
45:28Link Jesters.
45:29While it's done,
45:31you see there'll be thousands of ways
45:34where love was built.
45:36We're out.
