No they don't they just show people splashing paint about and
hacking at
bits of MDF they don't go into *any* detail about How to... do it.
Notice
how you rarely get any closeups and when you do the paint is going
all
over the place.

Agreed, I was trying to be a tad sarcastic - obviously not well
enough though...


Ordinary TV hides a whole host and a couple of multitudes of sins
from
the viewer. It may look OK on screen but in real life I expect they
all
look a right mess particulary if you do more than just glance
around.
Anybody who has visited an studio and looked at the average set
will
vouch for that, dirty finger marks, simple taped and painted joins
between flats, chips knocks and dents, none of which show on
screen.


Are you implying that those poor people who allow Miss Smiley and Co.
to take over their homes have to redecorate the re decorated rooms,
if so I'm very surprised the cat has not been let out before!
