There was a very strong reaction to last night’s episode of Room To Improve

Were you watching?

If you don’t watch Room To Improve on a Sunday night with a mug full of tea and a mouth full of opinions, what are you even doing with your Sunday nights? Well, there was no shortage of opinions last night as Twitter blew up with a rolling commentary of the show. Last night we met dairy farmer Padraig and his wife, Katie, who own a 100-year-old farmhouse in Tipperary.

With a very clear idea about what they wanted (and what they didn't!) the pair enlisted the help of Dermot to ‘finish off’ the inside of their home. Well, straight out the gate we knew there was going to be trouble as Katie shut down Dermot’s initial design and revealed open-plan living was most definitely not for her. Oh and Padraig shared that he wasn’t a huge fan of a lot of glass either. * Cue thousands of people scratching their heads *

Yes, for anyone who tunes in to the show regularly, you’ll know that when it comes to Dermot Bannon, there will be two things clients will most certainly be getting – an open-plan living space and a rake of glass. From the debate on “the wall” to that issue of the window colour, it was a battle start to finish and we were all totally wrecked after watching it.

What we are seeing here is a "can I speak to the manager" in its natural habitat #roomtoimprove

Why in the name of all things architect would you get Dermot in if you hate open plan; Dermot LOVES an open plan. He’d marry an open plan. #RoomToImprove

The nation has'nt been this engrossed in the goings on of a farm since Miley and Fidelma were rolling around in a hayshed #roomtoimprove

She’s reaching Donald Trump levels of obsession with China and building a wall. #roomtoimprove

Lol Dermot’s face was all of us when he was able to prove the sample was a match for the windows. #RoomToImprove pic.twitter.com/X11IoLVhQ0

When it came down to it though, you can’t deny that Katie and Padraig were left with an absolute whopper of a house – who you’d give the credit to, however, is up to yourself.

Differences aside, in the end the finished product really speaks for itself! #RoomtoImprove pic.twitter.com/nQZhZcJMnU
