On half way mark of Chris' project inspectors decide that his half-built house doesn't match the criteria he set on his consent - and that means he doesn't have planning permission for what he's built. Following much wrangling and a wait of 18 months after the original meeting, Chris’s house finally gets planning permission granted. But as ever, circumstances seem to work against Chris. With the UK economy slumping he has to return to London to take care of his retail businesses, leaving his Oxfordshire mill to sit empty. Chris couldn't complete the work in the estimated time and his budget also exceeded towards the end.
