For my coursework I am going to look at genderlect in Grand Designs. I am going to explore the way in which the males in the programme perhaps tend to talk more to the builders about figures and the women tend to talk more about the interior design etc. I have found three clips, two of which are from the same episode showing and backing up this idea that women care more about the aesthetics than the price and the second clip is from a different episode that is going against this ideology as the woman here is actually discouraging the aesthetics and in a role reversal telling her husband that they don't need certain things to keep in with the budget.
