Press clippings
It is the sort of programme where, as self-evidently nothing is happening up front, you start noticing what they have on the mantelpiece. The cable-swathed, cuckoo-ridden Cole seems to live inside a sort of china teapot, all rosebuds and alcoves, niches and, I shouldn't wonder, ingle nooks. A set designer's bitter impression of just the sort of house an estate agent would choose.
