Selling Houses Abroad 20/03/2007 8:00pm - 9:00pm Channel 4
The three couples featured in this film seem reasonably intelligent, sane people. Yet they each managed to buy a property in France or Spain that has been such a disaster that they could lose tens of thousands of pounds. Stuart and Penny bought a "cave house" that's now falling down the cliff, while Pauline and Steve (an estate agent back in Britain) didn't check on their off-plan villa and now own a tatty home sited next to a major road in what looks like a war zone. But it's Tony and Rose's Pyrenean property that takes up most of the film. He bought it after a boozy lunch. She hates it - and no wonder. Its lurid 1970s-style interior is like a set on Life on Mars. What on earth was he drinking?
