What is Demolition about?
Demolition is a 2005 television series from Channel 4, which can be seen as being the reverse of the BBC's 2003 series Restoration. The public were encouraged to vote for buildings which they want demolished and replaced, with 12 buildings making The Dirty Dozen. The show was shown on four days, 17th to 20th December 2005, with the "Dirty Dozen" covered along with other buildings which did not make the final 12, two of which were actually demolished either during or for filming. The show on the 20th dealt almost entirely with Cumbernauld town centre. The show was presented and narrated by Kevin McCloud, with a Demolition Troubleshooter of Janet Street-Porter, and a team of architectural and heritage exports. The show is based around a proposed concept of X-listing buildings, the opposite of making a listed building. One of the dirty dozen is Grade II* listed. Many of these buildings are either famous within the UK, or the world. The series reflects a distinct GB style and perspective.
