What are the best episodes of The World's Most Extraordinary Homes?

There are strong offerings from every episode, but if we had to pick our top three episodes it would be Norway from Season 2 (what could beat that stunning cliff edge summer house?) followed by Underground from Season 1 because of the unexpectedly beautiful architecture built below the surface, and finally India because of the sheer luxury.
