Its about an architect, (George Clarke), who follows the lives of people in Britain who are in the middle of restoring historically and architecturally significant buildings.

And your photos with the brilliant blue and yellow background. <br />Rapeseed is Canola by another name, I read somewhere the name was changed when it was GM modified to produce Canola Oil because people might not buy Rapeseed Oil with the rape as part of the name. I can't verify the truth of that I just vaguey remember reading it years ago. I do know that my digestive system dislikes Canola Oil.
