Overseas Editions
The show has been franchised and variations of it appear in several other countries, sometimes with a different name - such as Trading Spaces in United States. The original Changing Rooms is also broadcast overseas, for example, on BBC America and featured in various US shows, Sex And The City episode Lights, Camera, Relationship being one example.
A New Zealand edition of the show was produced for several years, also called Changing Rooms. The show was identically formatted to the British series, with host Kerry Smith, "Handy" Andy Dye, and regular designers including Donald Grant Sunderland, Neil McLachlan, and Sally Ridge. A handful of international shows were produced, each featuring one couple in New Zealand and one in the United Kingdom.
Australia's Nine Network also produced a local version hosted by Suzie Wilks who was ably assisted by Peter Everett, James Lindsay, Catherine Morton and Tim Janenko-Panaeff. The show is now defunct.

Famous quotes containing the word editions:
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
