At What Was He Raising A Sceptical Eyebrow?

If, like me, you set aside all worldly concerns, switch off your phone and dim the lights whenever Grand Designs is on, then perhaps this little quiz based on the wit and wisdom of Kevin McCloud will take your fancy.

As much as I pretend it’s the struggle of turning, say, an old war bunker into a subterranean palace, that has me tuning in week after week, I must confess it’s the lure of the McCloud himself that sets my frontal lobe alight.

The man may take brow-furrowing to new extremes, but his one-liners are smoother than George Clooney in a dinner jacket and capable of cutting deeper then Anne Robinson on a bad day.

So, being a writer with an acute sense of my own limited vocabulary, that’s why I watch… for the words and stuff.

Anyway, back to the quiz, which makes you match up quotes from our beloved Kev to the context in which he said them. No problemo, thought I, the maestro of McCloudisms. Needless to say, I was rubbish.
