\nWhile many will balk at the shoddy derivativeness of this Marmite series, it\u2019s easy to marvel at the total garishness of its home \u2018improvements\u2019 Interior Design Masters with Alan Carr (BBC Two) is a Marmite programme, presented by a Marmite presenter. Some will loathe the dismal, shoddy, derivativeness of it all \u2013 it is Changing Rooms meets The Great British Bake Off, but so much worse than either show \u2013 and find themselves permanently incensed by the sidelining of expertise in favour of amateur cock-ups, as 10 aspiring interior designers compete to be the last one standing over a poorly conceived and badly executed project.

The opening episode of the second series saw the wannabe masters paired up and required to decorate a bedroom and a living room fit for a new-build show house in Oxford. As usual, the action shots as they set to work sketching, paint-mixing and pointing are interspersed with emetic individual interviews, during which the participants say things such as: \u201cI will always base my decisions on my heart,\u201d and, \u201cI\u2019m a good designer because I know what I like and have an eye for things other people don\u2019t normally notice,\u201d and, \u201cI\u2019m going to put this chair in the sink because I\u2019m very into chairs in sinks.\u201d OK, not quite the last one, but give it time.
