Phil Spencer is in Greater Manchester with Ruth and Craig, who are ready to buy after renting for 13 years. However, they quickly realise their £375,000 won't go far in their beloved town of Sale. Kirstie Allsopp is across the border in West Yorkshire with Ollie and Emma, who have a £500,000 budget for the rural good life for them and their two dogs. Plans to move into their dream home fallen through twice. Can Kirstie make it third time lucky?

The house-hunting show finds Phil Spencer with Savannah and Izzy as they navigate the often bewildering property market of south-east London. Meanwhile, Kirstie Allsopp helps John, who has moved out of the capital and is hoping to put down roots once again in his native Surrey. He has a plentiful budget of £1.2 million and a wish list to match, taking Kirstie from homes with stunning extensions and epic-sized gardens to even the occasional swimming pool.

A catch-up with two sets of house-hunters who needed room to grow. In 2019, first-time buyers Becky and Adam were looking for their first family home in Essex. They were keen to take on a project, and Phil Spencer found them a stunning house with real renovation potential in Tollesbury. In 2021, Kinga and Dave were moving from their London rental to Leeds to be closer to family. How are the couples getting on since their first appearance?

We revisit picky postcoder Rupreet and Sundeep at their ever-growing Harrow home, and Laura and Euan, who got their Glasgow gaff for £432,100 to mark the countdown to moving in.
