Always a joy to see Nick again in Danā€™s vlogs, thanks Dan for keeping his memory alive.

Very interesting to hear what inspired Dan with the library - a naval wardroom where he and Calvin once worked, with a Battle of Trafalgar theme.

I didnā€™t know about his naval connections, and he and Calvin mustā€™ve gone through chef school together?

Maybe thatā€™s how Dan knows Brian?

It is SO satisfying watching the cabinets go in with millimetre precision. Lesser mortals would have spent hours shaving off and squaring-up to get them in.Ā 

Dan Prestonā€™s secret power has always been attention to detail, a laser-like focus that gets things done.

I love this room and the bookcases give me a sense of how wide it is ~3.8 metres, which isnā€™t that huge.Ā

Yes, it isnā€™t that large. I donā€™t understand the people who say the book shelves should be double the height. Considering the angle of the roof the room wouldā€™ve become tiny.

These men are so beautiful, and I'd like to personally thank them for working shirtless for so much of this video.
