Advantages: Helps inform you in your own purchasing decisions

Disadvantages: I get jealous/resentful when you see the rich, picky people messing about!

Location Location Location has been on TV for a fair few years now, and it's never lost its appeal with me. I find it so interesting seeing what you money buys you all over the country, and basically getting the opportunity to snoop inside wealthy people's homes (and a lot of them are rather rich, let's face it!). The presenters, Phil Spencer ad Kirstey Allsopp have a great repartee between them, and the banter really helps to give the show personality and direction. in recent series', they've also become more candid in their opinions of their clients, who are sometimes - let's face it - incredibly picky, elitist and downright spoiled! 'Location' is as much an interesting insight into other couples, their relationships and how they make their decisions and interact with each other. It's rather a comfort to know that me and my other half aren't like some of them! This show gets repeated on More4 quite a bit - often in a Sunday afternoon 'marathon' - perfect for lazy/hungover days when you can't be bothered to peel yourself off the sofa! It's aspirational too - we can all dream that one day, we too will somehow be able to afford an £800,000 house in the Cotswolds...I certainly do! Seeing other making decisions and weighing up the relative benefits of location, price, condition, etc against each other have also really helped us to better inform ourselves in our own house-buying decisions. It's also a good education in what to look for and how to negotiate when speaking to Estate Agents. Especially interesting now that we're in turbulent times in the property market.

Summary: Kirstey and Phil are legends! I hope they make many more series'!
