Episode 5
The new series continues, as we catch up with house-hunters who bought their perfect place abroad. Jasmine Harman revisits Janice and Steven who made the permanent move to Estepona on the Costa del Sol back in 2017. With its traditional Andalucian charm, cosmopolitan Estepona boasts a lovely promenade, 13 miles of beaches and oodles of amenities. Janice and Steven's search got off to a great start with a firm first option, then toppled by a townhouse and a third property that had Janice reaching for her chequebook as they got their dream place within their £150k budget. Now, Jasmine returns to see what changes they've made and how retirement in Spain is treating them, and to enjoy a spot of bowling at their local club. Meanwhile, Sara Damergi catches up with Suzi and Andrew at their barn in Charente that they snapped up in 2021. Named after the river that runs through it, the Charente region offers peace, quiet and beautiful countryside in abundance, alongside quintessentially French towns and villages with quaint shops. After stumbling at the first hurdle, Suzi and Andrew took to a house with a veg patch. But that wasn't a patch on what was to come... a beautifully converted barn that won them over. After their cheeky offer was rejected, and a couple of days of negotiating a new offer, they eventually sealed the deal, within their £310k budget. Now, Sara's back to see how Suzi and Andrew are getting on and what changes they've made, before lending a hand around the grounds and taking a bike ride on an abandoned railway line.

Garvin, Troy Johnson, Catherine McCord, Aarti Sequeira, among others. The last chef standing goes on a shopping spree of a lifetime worth up to $20,000!
Wild Cards
Wild Cards follows the unlikely duo of a gruff, sardonic cop and a spirited, clever con woman. Ellis, a demoted detective, has unfortunately spent the last year on the maritime unit, while Max has been living a transient life elaborately scamming everyone she meets. But when Max gets arrested and ends up helping Ellis solve a local crime, the two are offered the opportunity to redeem themselves, with Ellis going back to detective and Max staying out of jail. The catch? They have to work together, with each using their unique skills to solve crimes. For Ellis, that means hard-boiled shoe leather police work; for Max, it means accents, schemes and generally befriending everyone in sight, while driving Ellis absolutely nuts. Against the backdrop of beautiful Vancouver — with all its unique, charming, and even contradictory neighbourhoods and subcultures — the two will have to learn what it means to trust another person and maybe actually become partners.
