The team managed to conceal this from the TV documentary team.

−	*~~'''~~Wrong permission:~~'''~~ Not realising the difference between planning permission and building regulations – resulting in failure to get planning permission.	+	* Wrong order: Failure to appoint an acoustic consultant until the design was complete.

−	*~~'''~~Wrong brief:~~'''~~ Failure to make the brief match the budget, resulting in a brief for a world class building, but a budget for a shed.	+	* Wrong document: Signing the letter of intent, but never getting round to signing the contract.
−	*~~'''~~Wrong document:~~'''~~ Signing the letter of intent, but never getting round to signing the contract.	+	* Wrong equipment: Failure to freeze the brief, resulting in the redesign of all operating theatres in a major new hospital when the surgeons changed their minds about the equipment supplier.
−	*~~'''~~Wrong equipment:~~'''~~ Failure to freeze the brief, resulting in the redesign of all operating theatres in a major new hospital when the surgeons changed their minds about the equipment supplier.	+	* Wrong packaging. Analysis carried out on the Media Centre for London 2012 revealed that whilst only 469 tonnes of timber was officially delivered to site for use in the construction works, 907 tonnes of timber left the site in skips.

At the end of the pour the concrete trapped in the 6 inch pipes was cleared by sending through a rubber ball powered by compressed air from a pressure vessel. As the ball pushed the concrete through the pipe, resistance reduced and so the pressure needed to be dropped to ensure the ball gently hit a piece of ply at the end of the pipeline. New to this, the gang had no ply prepared and failed to reduce the pressure. The ball hurtled into the naval dockyard much like Nelson would have experienced on the nearby Victory. All hell was let loose and only the Irish gang saw the funny side, having retired to the infamous Hole in the Wall pub.
