Question for you, if you don't mind. Now I've seen the set "in the flesh", I see it's largely a dull light-grey and is cleverly lit to give it the colours we see on TV.
Do you decide on the colour scheme, or is it decided by the production team? How hard is it to visualise it fully-lit when you're working in monochrome?
Thanks Dave, It's Jonathan btw. It's a joint effort deciding the colours between myself, the Lighting Director and the Producer and Director. By making the set grey, you can effectively turn it any colour you like with light.

Thanks for the comment. I start off with an initial thought, which then gets discussed with the Lighting Director, Director and Producer. It's not too hard to visualise the fully lit version, because that's what you have in mind when you're designing it. With a monochrome set, you have the ability to make small adjustments on the day, or can change the colour completely.

Hi Paul,

Either way, the end result looks brilliant!

Cheers for that answer. Sorry for getting your name wrong, I'm off to hang my head in shame for a few hours.
