Nah - it was just a frameless "canvas" print that obscured the
plasma
which was recessed into the wall behind it.

007 or not...I thought it was pretty slick - though I don't really buy
this whole "plasma over the fireplace" thing.

As I was talking on #ukha last night - it's kinda annoying how GD just
tends to fleet over the HA-porn aspects of these new builds. Last
night's build clearly had a few good things to talk about ("5km of
cable", "coloured lighting", "12,000 CDs",
"centrally controlled by a
computer", "that duct is full") - it even had the obligatory
whinging
SWMBO ("I though we were just having a small cupboard here",
"what's all
these wires hanging out for?") - and yet the entire HA content made up
about 1.5% of the runtime of the show.

Hey ho...I guess we're not really representative of the mass of viewers.
