I couldn't find it either. Looking in the paper it was Matthew and Louise Hardy in Northumberland (Wednesday's repeat programme I think). Will see if I can find it again over the weekend on TV.

Render would put me off personally. It'll need painting and repairing/replacing at some point, might cause damp, causes problems with new windows and of course, there's the "what's it hiding?" thing.

I am not sure that it would put me off. Especially if the alternative is to have to look at poor brickwork. Some houses built after WW11 had absolutely horrible bricks, they make me shudder every time that I see them. Even if the bricks are in good order, to my eye they are horrible. A house just around the back of us has recently been nicely rendered. It is a vast improvement over the horrible common Fletton bricks used in its construction just after the war. It is, however in a road of individual houses houses in individual plots, so they are all different anyway.

Can anyone tell me the advantages or disadvantages of having it done?

After some years it will fall off.
