Channel 4's Grand Designs marked its 25th anniversary this year, with a special episode airing to look back at some of its most iconic and challenging builds. In last week's return, couple Zahid and Ferzana hoped to transform an obsolete coastguard station into their dream home. However, like most Grand Designs builds, things were not easy for the couple, as the East Yorkshire project came with endless tasks.

After ripping the original tower down, the pair discovered they only had permission to renovate and not tear it down, leaving the project on pause. TOMORROW NIGHT: High-flyers Zara and Giuliano set out to build a 400-square-metre malthouse-inspired home in Lincolnshire. With problems from the get-go, can they get the project off the ground? #GrandDesigns | @Kevin_McCloud pic.

In the latest Grand Designs, professional make-up artist Zara and her partner Giuliano originally from Reading want to create a 400-square-metre malthouse-inspired home of their dreams in the Lincolnshire Wolds. The pair have no project manager and Giuliano, who works in tech, hopes to manage the build despite having no building experience. (function (d, s, n) { var js, fjs = d.
