    The British Invasion continues on Trading Spaces. Changing Rooms' designer Anna Ryder Richardson teams up with our own Laurie Smith in this suburban Philadelphia episode. Anna brings her special flair to Jen and Jonathon's master bedroom. In England ""special flair"" must mean cutting big holes in the wall and ""tights"" or what we in America call panty hose. Laurie is trying to bring a touch more elegance to Mike and Dina's living room, which of course makes you immediately think eggplant and placemats. Carpenter Carter Oosterhouse is clearly struggling to stay focused on building plans because in his words, Anna is ""cute and has that great accent"". And they say professionalism is dead! Can host Paige Davis avoid an international incident? The reveal reveals all

    This could be a Trading Spaces first. We always have two designers, one host, one carpenter and four homeowners. But in this episode we have three designers! John and Roz want their dining room updated from that ""trapped in the 70's"" look. Edward Walker was all set to do just that when he threw his back out. Kia Steave-Dickerson to the rescue as she comes in at the last second to execute Edward's design for the room. Tricky though, because Edward is flat on his back at home on the other end of the phone trying to give instructions. Meanwhile, Christi Proctor is down the street redecorating Neecy's living room but where to start? It's a large room that needs attention anywhere you look. To add to the tension Neecy has traded spaces with her brother so if she hates it John will have to hear about it for the next 20 family reunions. Can Paige Davis keep three designers under budget and on time? Talk about phoning it in! Check this one out.

    Trading Spaces brings the fine arts to Texas. Or at least that's what designer Doug Wilson is trying to convince his homeowners he's up to. Either way he wants to paint nude figures all over the walls and it requires the services of live nude models for this romantic master bedroom motif. Since the homeowners refused to model, he has to look elsewhere for help. Meanwhile native Texan Christi Proctor is radically transforming the neighbor's kitchen and no one likes her choice of color and it's possible that their neighbor's favorite rooster might not survive. No actual animals were harmed in the course of shooting this episode although it looked for a time that carpenter Carter Oosterhouse wanted to inflict a little pain on Doug. As usual, it's up to Paige Davis to bring it all in on time and under budget. Nude models and a porcelain rooster all in the same episode? That's my kind of redecoration show!

That's right; Doug designs not one but TWO rooms with the help of three of his brothers! To assist in the heavy workload are carpenters Ty Pennington and Carter Oosterhouse. Even though there are more carpentry projects than normal, Ty and Carter still have time for a dance-off. You'll have to see it to believe it. Watch, as host Paige Davis goes to new heights to help a designer and his family. Planes, farm equipment and sibling rivalry are all a part of this special episode. (And you get to see Doug's parents — what more could you ask for?)

    Trading Spaces kicks off a brand-new season in suburban Philadelphia, Pa. Preston and his wife, Rachelle, are trading with their neighbors B.J. and Sue. Preston will put in some extra-long days because he has to get up at 3 a.m. to go work on his morning radio show. And because he couldn't take time off, he's doing his show live from his neighbor's house. Speaking of 3 a.m., that's when neighbor B.J. starts work on her overnight job that her boss wouldn't let her out of, and so for part of the time, Sue has to carry the weight of redecorating without her teammate. In spite of being shorthanded, designer Hildi Santo Tomás manages to pull off a kitchen redo that is pretty radical. Imagine that from Hildi! Next door in Laurie Smith's family room, carpenter Carter Oosterhouse is faced with a daunting list of projects.

    The Trading Spaces caravan rolls into California bearing new twists and a whole new look to the show. Host Paige Davis knows that one of the rooms in each house is the ""money"" room — that means it has a bigger budget. But, of course, designers Edward Walker and Hildi Santo Tomás don't know which room it is. What fun would that be? So the designers and their homeowners have to pick which room to do right there on the spot. Do they pick the money room? How much will the budget be on this episode? How will the homeowners react when they don't even know which room has been chosen for redecoration in their house? And has carpenter Faber Dewar lost his Scottish mind? To tear out that whole wall? It's a wild ride in this episode from South Central L.A. And you won't want to miss these high-energy homeowners at their reveal!

    Trading Spaces goes Scottish! In this episode the crew takes over the Kilhenzie Castle and Law Castle in Ayr, Scotland. Adding another Trading Spaces twist, our castle-owners are meeting for the first time before they trade castles! Designer Frank Bielec pulls the centuries together in the drawing room of the Kilhenzie Castle owned by Allison and John. Over in the Law Castle, Davy and Kate need the help of designer Hildi Santo Tomas to transport their drab master bedroom into a royal suite. Carpenters Amy Wynn Pastor and Faber Dewar join these teams in their challenge to create two fresh Scotland-inspired rooms in only two days. The stakes have been raised and the budget has too, to 3,000 pounds (that's approximately $5,000!). Host Paige Davis must stay on top of these design trios now that the terms of the deal are more "foreign" than usual! Will Englishman John be able to save his new-found Scottish friend's vision for their room secure with Hildi on the loose? Will Frank be able to resist the temptation to go completely Scottish, kilt and all? Make sure to tune in to see the Lords and Ladies of Trading Spaces as they trade castles in a grand way!

    This special two-hour episode will have you at the edge of your seats from beginning to end. This is a Trading Spaces first; all ten designers and all three carpenters come together on one episode to completely re-decorate two homes ... and our homeowners have no idea what they are about to embark on! You will see controversy, drama, collaboration and a lot of fun and laughs right from the start. Our homeowners have to pick their own fate by putting together the two design teams — and they don't know if they are picking their teammates or the team that will transform their home. Our designers and carpenters don't know if they will be the chosen ones or the fearless assistants for the design teams. Thankfully, host Paige Davis has pulled out all the stops on this episode and enlists the help of Trading Spaces: Family host Joe Farrell to take on managing this chaotic design frenzy.

    In this special, we'll answer the age-old question: "I wonder how the other half lives." We'll take classic city dwellers — a white-collar, professional couple from the Lower East Side of Manhattan — and have them trade spaces with a couple who work on their own family-owned farm in Oklahoma. Our New York couple have never lived anywhere but the city, and as Jim the husband says, "I’ve never even mowed the grass. What am I gonna do on a farm?" Likewise, our Oklahoma couple went to school together and graduated in a class of 11! They've spent their entire life on the farm, which is 40 miles from the nearest store, and can't imagine what anyone would find appealing about living in New York City. Each of our teams has to spend some time "living the life" of the other. Our farmers must find their way around the city and do select errands set up by the New Yorkers. Meanwhile, the city folks have been given a list of farm chores to do. Imagine a man who's never even run a push mower trying to drive a John Deere tractor with tires bigger than he is! Oh, and then there's that little challenge of trying to completely redecorate a room with only two days and a limited budget. But designers Frank Bielec and carpenter Faber Dewar tackle the farm challenge and whip those city slickers into shape. It's a show filled with contrasts. Just look at Carpentry World. In Oklahoma, we're set up outside in a rolling field with cows and crops. In Manhattan, we're in an abandoned lot strewn with broken glass right next to the entrance to the Holland Tunnel! Will it be a warm reception when Frank and Faber attempt to bring some of the junk and abandoned farm buildings into the country folks' living room and call it "style"? Some 1,500 miles away, New York-based designer Laura Day and carpenter Carter Oosterhouse attempt to remake the Tribeca loft of our urban homeowners. But Brad, the farm husband, seems intent on bringing a deer theme into the master bedroom. It also happens to be the
