Absolutely amazing. Loving following the progress. 😊

Fantastic progress. How neat to be working with Farrow and Ball. Those wallpapers are gorgeous. Can't wait to see them go up. Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow, that's a lot of ivy to pull off, but I'm sure it will be worth it!❤

I cannot and never will be able to, repeat cannot and never will be able to comprehend the universes of superhuman work, determination, discipline, guts, and mountains of money it took for this couple to do this🤯🤯🤯🤯❤️‍🔥

good luck on saving the castle <3

This channel is my Sunday morning gift. I love watching the progress with my Sunday morning coffee. Magnificent ! ❤

Love that you all had the busts re-made and kept the plasters too.

Those ‘guys’ have the greatest sunset view.

I also am impressed by your enthusiasm and dedication, for a country you seemingly adore! And your vids are always instructive and so voluptuous in it's musical score and camera work as well! 🌹🌹🌹

Are the busts permanently attached?

Ironically it wasn't the French king who's actions resulted in he revolution, but the "nobles" who refused to pay taxes.

This is such a community effort that will continue after the work is "complete". Just as it was in the time it was constructed. The Big House then provided work for the villagers, as it does now and their skills will be handed on to other young men and women. Everyone must be proud of the excellent standard of restoration.

La beauté de la toiture ,c est grandiose ,cette ardoise

Y’all need BABY POOLS. They are almost as tall as your 5 gallon buckets. They look shallow but the larger plastic ones are in a circle that I would 6-7 feet wide. It helps with splashing and everyone knows how annoying it is to to put a bucket under a drip and you come to check and the drip is now 3 in each from. KIDDY POORS

I just want to make one observation about the difference in social division. In 2024 we think servants living quarters are controversial and the dirty not so secret past. What frustrates me most is that you judge the people for having 4-50 servants on the grounds when in those periods people would have felt honored to work at these places. They had a safe place to live. They were given uniforms, a room, food, water, no taxes, medical care(when they had doctors)), taught to hunt/ride/art/cooking/farming/ whatever they needed. Some lived and raised families inside these chateau’s. I am not naive I get the they were treated badly but it was a job. It was stability. It was a high social class then people who lived 15 family members in a three room apartment without heat. Having trouble finding jobs and food. Clothes were made by hand with horrible materials that were cast aways. Their children were uneducated. Most couldn’t read or write. They knew nothing about art, history, music, dancing, and many other subjects that people who lived there learned. They weren’t highborn but they also were low class. We work jobs and have people above you getting rich while you do the work. We have homeless, gutter rats, second class, middle class, high class. Judging before realizing everyone worked together to make sure that they all had a place to live. The better the families business do the better quality of life for everyone.

I was distracted from the busts by the perfect and beautiful roof!

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So happy for you both! Very proud to be feeling like I'm a part of this as one of your Patreon members! Keep Calm and Carry On!

Bravo stay the course.

Wow and wow and OMG and a glass of bubbles, congratulations.🙂

Will it be saved?

i want too know how much

the thing is a hundred years from now they will talk about you guys not the original owners great job guys

I must be a joy for the countess to see the château restored. Thanks to you.

Love the red one and the black one.

Loooooooove the videos. You might want to consider toning down the saturation in the editing as the skin tones are a quite a bit orange (I understand it makes the scenery pop out better). As someone who films with drones regularly, ND filters are a great addon for sunny days so no additional saturation increases needed =) looking forward to future content, keep up the amazing work!

FÉLICITATION, à l'Artisan qui a recréé les bustes des Rois, Travail incroyable. FÉLICITATIONS aux artisans qui ont installé les bustes à leurs emplacements sur le toit. BRAVO, FÉLICITATIONS et MERCI pour votre amour et votre soin apporté à la restauration de cet incroyable château, 👍🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀️🇦🇺 IN ENGLISH From an Australian CONGRATULATION, to the Artisan who recreated the Kings busts, Incredible work. CONGRATULATIONS to the tradespeople who installed the busts to their locations on the roof. WELL DONE, CONGRATULATIONS and THANK YOU for your love and care of the restoration of this amazing Chateau, 👍🏻👏🏻🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀️

What an amazing achievement and important part of the restoration accomplished. Well done.

Louis the xvth could be loved as far as being called he had annexed Napoleon's Corsica to France. Not because he left it in financial trouble, presided over several pointless wars and his successor was the ultimate cause of the French Revolution. Henry de IV in contrast was far more interesting. Born Catholic and raised by his Protestant Huguenot mother. He had great influence on the resurrection and creation of Protestant republics such as that of the Netherlands, Holland. Financed and supported. He kept the balance between Catholic and Protestant faith as Henry the good.

This is a visually stunning episode. The story of the discovery and recovery of these two busts are a story all to themselves. Simply a feast for the eyes. And the mystery of why these two kings is probably in all the old paperwork of the chateau. What a project for a biographer! I’m as thrilled as everyone commenting about this here. They have said all the things I am thinking! ❤

Call me sentimental but man oh man those Kings crowning the roof made me all teary. Heartly thanks. 🤴🏻🤍🤴🏻

Congratulations on your commitment to restore the chateau to its former beauty….. such an amazing achievement to see the busts returned! 👍

Congratulations, an historic moment.

Fantastic guys but I get confused when the chateau is called 'her'. I thought chateau in the French language is masculine?

This chateau is so lucky to have you!

Bonjour Felicity and Tim, " MAGNIFIQUE" oh my God this was such a tremendous sight to see. The kings are home. I know I mention this a lot, but you have the best of the best artisans their work is truly SECOND to none. I was such a delight to see Comtesse Nicole de Rochequairie there to see it. Well done to everyone involved. Love from N.Y.

How wonderful to unlock yet another piece of the chateau's story. The respect you and the artisans show for Chateau de Purnon is quite inspirational and humbling. We loved seeing all the artisan's shaking hands with each other as they achieved yet another milestone. bw M&R... (oh snake bites! )

Congratulations on reinstating the busts ! The journey of Purnon is remarkable and I am enthralled by all that Purnon reveals to us about her past.

Wow, amazing to watch the crane place those historical reproductions of past French Kings back where they belong. I’ve only been following for a few months, but it’s been a bit of learning experience with all that has gone and continues to bring this beautiful chateau back to life. Best wishes from Texas

Thar roof is art in itself - incredible restoration.

I am Canadian with French Heritage, and to see this the moment unfold, I was so touched! I absolutely love how much passion and love has gone into this project. You should feel so proud of all the hard work and dedication that has brought the restoration to this point! Congrats! ❤

Ok now you two head out on a well earned vacation to a nice sunny beach somewhere. We have to keep you charged up for more great videos in the future!

I just discovered your channel today and I am so excited to live vicariously through you on this adventure. Having the help of this amazing gentleman and all the treasures he found with as you said a trained eye. Your video is so well done, I really enjoyed myself watching it. Love&friendship from Edmonton Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 😊

Simply supreme!

The smile on the faces of the workers says it all!

Desde Venezuela les felicito por esta heroica empresa que recupera para Francia y el mundo está magnífica, maravillosa, espectacular e impresionante obra llena de romanticismo, historia e inigualable belleza arquitectónica.

I love, love, love your apartment!! It’s very beautifully decorated. I really love the Pierre Fray (?) chairs, so classic and timeless. 👍🏻🥰🍷🙏

Magnificent I’m so happy for the France and for you all for making all this possible 🙏🫴🏼🕊️🤍

Thank you for sharing moments like this with us. I stopped watching a vlog this week, as the new owners rush to do modernization work. Your attention to detail and such a phenomenal detail of returning the two busts to their original position on the roof. Every tiny detail is not overlooked. Nothing thrown away. Saskatchewan, Canada
