Oh! Sounds like it might be good. So LiA on video and unknown person with interesting past live. But there's also a programme about Nye Bevan and the history of the South Bank Show on all at the same time... ::)

Like buses, you wait for ages, then 4 turn up at the same time!

Tonight's WDYTYA should  be repeated on BBC2 tomorrow at 7pm I think (normally comes on as I'm putting my little girl to bed, anyway!).

I wonder if the real Lawrence Llewelyn-Bowen will be allowed to come through ?  My sister used to live about 100 yards down the road from him, and his house doesn't reveal any stunning decor - it's a very ordinary Victorian detached house with conventional decor.  I wonder if his programme will reveal rather more down-to-earth roots ?  I suspect that he's a very ordinary chap underneath all the public glitz.

P.S.  This must be one of the longest WDYTYA threads for a programme that hasn't been shown yet !  :)
RIP 1949-10th January 2013

Best Wishes,  Nick.

He recently bought a wonderful old manor house in Gloucestershire, he did at least save the house...but the decor leaves a lot to be desired :-X, I guess you either like his style (I use that word in the loosest sense) or you don't.

Does anyone know anything about the programme?  I caught a snippet of him on BBC news prog this morning and I'm sure I heard him say he'd tried wearing a smock.  Dare we hope for a few ag labs :D

Probably because in this one we are allowed to talk about him rather than the programme  ;D

Haha, I saw the same clip on BBC breakfast - the smock reference is to a pic of him as a baby wearing a traditional baby smock thing!

No ag labs were mentioned (I mean, this is Laurence...can you imagine?!)  ;D
