This is back for one show on May 8th, and the back properly in the summer. The link below takes you to the 21 buildings on the list! I'm shocked to see Newstead Abbey on the list, is it in trouble. Visited that a few summers ago and seemed fine to me. Might have to vote for that!http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/tv_and_radio/3673131.stm Did anyone watch the last series, as an archaeologist and someone who loves going round ruins and delapidated buildings, I enjoyed it. Didn't like the winner though as it was only opening up the spa rooms to charge people, not the main baths. Sure that people voted for it as, as they thought the baths would be for public use again! It was a nice building and stuff, but I like my castles and big Stately homes!!! Shame Starbeck Baths are not on there:( They need helpe else the council might close em as well.  |

i watched it and i will watch again
i wanted the eventual runner-up to win although i've forgotten the name now. Victoria Baths was a pointless winner cause the money wasn't anywhere near enough. hopefully something will actually be restored after this series

I do like castles and country houses, but some industrial buildings I like as well, wind mills, water mills, tin mines I could go for as well. I dont like modern stuff, or theaters too much...

And hope the castle wins...We went to look at Poltimore House in Exeter when we were down that way last, sadly couldn't get right in, but I love looking round old ruins and houses. Nice to see a few of them have got the money they needed from the last series. Heritage Lottery Fund coughing up at last thankfully. |

Not sure about this... *wonders why Newstead Abby needs restoring* - spent a lot of my childhood there and I really like the fact that it's half derelict and half entact.
Am watching the program though, shall judge properly after I've seen their argument.
