Hello and welcome to To Buy Or Not To Buy, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
where we work really, really, really, really, really hard. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
-That's right. We put in a lot of overtime, don't we? -We do. | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
Going that extra mile, to ensure we get only the very best properties for our buyers. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:14 | |
-In fact, my middle name is Property. -But I thought it was Cedric. | 0:00:14 | 0:00:18 | |
It's extraordinary, Ed. Very rarely do we get to spend time | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
in something that represents the place we're in. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:34 | |
We're in the Swiss town of Jacuzzi, are we? Is that where we are? | 0:00:34 | 0:00:38 | |
No. We're in Bath, obviously. | 0:00:38 | 0:00:40 | |
Surrounded by thermal spas, water, all that jazz. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
Eventually, we'll have to leave this bath to go to the actual Bath that is Bath. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
-And then begin the search? -Yeah. | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
Finding three properties and giving our buyers the opportunity to try before they buy. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:53 | |
-Sounds a brilliant idea. -Yep. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:54 | |
Oh, it is, Edward. Now here is today's buyer, Maria. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
A pretty chilled senora, too. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
Currently renting in Litchfield, she wants to return to the Bath area, | 0:00:59 | 0:01:03 | |
to be closer to her family and in memory of her husband, Christopher. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:08 | |
Maria's got a very cosmopolitan background. Her mother's Columbian, her father's Spanish. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:13 | |
-She lived and got married in Africa and she teaches Spanish and Italian at the local college. -Tres bien! | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
Maria will be joined on her property voyage by Sue, | 0:01:18 | 0:01:21 | |
a retired school teacher and friend for over 20 years. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:24 | |
Tres bien? Voyage? | 0:01:24 | 0:01:26 | |
That's French, Jonny. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:28 | |
Now, viewers at home, you are probably not aware | 0:01:28 | 0:01:31 | |
that To Buy Or Not To Buy is a massive global brand. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
And today, we are reaching our arms across Europe, | 0:01:34 | 0:01:36 | |
-because, Maria, I believe you have many language skills. -I do, indeed. | 0:01:36 | 0:01:43 | |
Now, how many ways can you say "I would like to buy a house in Bath today," how many languages? | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
-Right. Vorrei comprare una casa qui in... a Bath. -That's one. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:55 | |
-Quiero comprar una casa aqui en Bath. -Two. I like it. | 0:01:55 | 0:02:02 | |
Jai vouloir, um, acheter, um, une maison, um, in Bath. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:09 | |
I like it. Three different languages. Here we go. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
If you are from any of those countries, you'll know exactly what Maria is looking for. | 0:02:12 | 0:02:17 | |
Why Bath? Why do you want this house in Bath? | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
Well, my husband died a few years, erm, from cancer. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
And he was from the area. And when I came to the UK, | 0:02:24 | 0:02:28 | |
I lived for a few months here in the area. | 0:02:28 | 0:02:30 | |
And one of my boys, the middle one, was born in Bath. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:33 | |
I think I like to say that I am honouring my husband's memory | 0:02:33 | 0:02:40 | |
and come back to where his roots were. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
And I always thought it's a beautiful city, | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
full of British traditions, | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
and yet so cosmopolitan. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
And of course, you'll be assisted by your friend Sue, here. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:54 | |
Sue, are you in tune with Maria and what she's looking for? | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
Yes, I hope so. I've been round quite a few properties with Maria. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
And I've known her for about 20 years. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:05 | |
We've been very close friends. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
She's gone through an awful lot in life. | 0:03:07 | 0:03:09 | |
And I want to see her really happily settled | 0:03:09 | 0:03:11 | |
in a wonderful house in Bath. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
-So, you've looked at quite a few houses? -I have. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:15 | |
Is Maria difficult? Be honest. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:17 | |
-Oh, absolutely, yes. -She's fussy? | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
She just wants the perfect house, which we all do. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:21 | |
Maria, you are temporarily living where you are. | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
Does this mean that you have sold your property? | 0:03:24 | 0:03:27 | |
-I have. -This is fantastic news. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:29 | |
Currently you're sitting as pretty as it gets in the property market, aren't you? | 0:03:29 | 0:03:33 | |
-They say so, yes. -It's true. -I would like to think it is. | 0:03:33 | 0:03:36 | |
You'll be able to negotiate some good deals, as well. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:39 | |
Because Bath is a quintessentially English city and you're very much a Latin lady, | 0:03:39 | 0:03:44 | |
give us an idea of the sort of property we're going to be looking for down here? | 0:03:44 | 0:03:48 | |
I'd like to find a property with a degree of character. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
It could be a new property, as well. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:54 | |
I'm not against new properties, | 0:03:54 | 0:03:56 | |
providing that's it's not in a very large new development. | 0:03:56 | 0:03:59 | |
Is it a house, an apartment? | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
I think I would prefer a house, yes. | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
How many bedrooms do we need? | 0:04:04 | 0:04:06 | |
-Three minimum. -Three minimum. -What else are you looking for? | 0:04:06 | 0:04:09 | |
-Gardens, driveways, any specifics? -Yes, a little bit of garden. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
I like to keep my traditions. Having breakfast in the garden. | 0:04:12 | 0:04:17 | |
-Al fresco? -In the summer, | 0:04:17 | 0:04:19 | |
-when this beautiful British summer... -Yeah. I bet, I bet. -What? | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
-Um, so, OK. -And she doesn't want too much work. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:26 | |
Because she's taken on houses in the past with so much renovation, | 0:04:26 | 0:04:30 | |
-haven't you? -For me the location is important, as well as the house. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:35 | |
-OK. -Yeah. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:36 | |
If I have to travel a little bit out of Bath, it's not a problem, really, | 0:04:36 | 0:04:40 | |
providing that it's the right house and the right location. | 0:04:40 | 0:04:43 | |
A mini flat over there is about half a million quid. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
How much money have you got to spend, Maria? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
Can we get a mini flat over there? | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
Oh, I would like to say that, if you could get me a mini flat | 0:04:50 | 0:04:54 | |
in the Royal Crescent for 350... | 0:04:54 | 0:04:57 | |
Ah, that's the budget. Sadly we can't, then, can we? | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Erm, I think that is going to be my limit. | 0:04:59 | 0:05:03 | |
Wish us luck. Can you wish us luck in a different language? | 0:05:03 | 0:05:06 | |
-Buena suerte, buona sorte. -I like it. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:10 | |
-Sue, can you do it in a different language? -Er, just find us a house. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
-Thank you very much. We'll see you later. -See you later. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
-Ed, you're going to like this. -Go on, then. -Mi casa es su casa. | 0:05:19 | 0:05:22 | |
What does that mean translated? | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
-My house is your house. -Is your house in Bath? -No. | 0:05:24 | 0:05:27 | |
Because I was going to say, if you could make your house Maria's house, | 0:05:27 | 0:05:31 | |
-show ended. Not a problem. -Done. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:33 | |
-But it isn't it, is it? -No. | 0:05:33 | 0:05:34 | |
Mi casa es...somewhere else. I tell you what. I feel this will be quite tough. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:39 | |
So, I am going to go and really, really, really, really put a lot of effort in now. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
I suggest you do the same. What are you thinking? | 0:05:43 | 0:05:46 | |
I'm thinking, she wants three bedrooms, a traditional character house in Bath, | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
she wants parking and we've only got £350,000 to spend. Yikes. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:54 | |
-I tell you where's a good place to go. Estate agents. -All right. -You do that and I'm going to go... | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
-I'm going to go and really work hard. -Au revoir. | 0:05:58 | 0:06:01 | |
Ah, Bath. Literary inspiration. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
World Heritage site. Film backdrop. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:07 | |
Hang on, is that a Bath bun you're eating? | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
No, it's a Bath Oliver, Jonny. If you were a true Bathonian you'd know that. | 0:06:10 | 0:06:14 | |
Or if you were of a certain age. | 0:06:14 | 0:06:15 | |
Like you'd also know that 5,000 of Bath's striking Georgian buildings are listed. | 0:06:15 | 0:06:20 | |
I may not be Bathonian. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:22 | |
But I did try some of the spa water earlier on. | 0:06:22 | 0:06:25 | |
Did you know it's full of minerals? | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
That's right. Over 42 of them, | 0:06:27 | 0:06:29 | |
as well as trace elements and iron. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
Now, you can tell from the general gorgeousness of Bath | 0:06:31 | 0:06:35 | |
that spending Maria's 350K here won't be remotely problematic. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
But how far would that stretch in other spa towns around the UK? | 0:06:39 | 0:06:44 | |
Let's start with Cheltenham. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:45 | |
There, it would get you this three-bedroom flat | 0:06:45 | 0:06:48 | |
simply screaming style and luxury. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:50 | |
Available for 350K on the nose. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:53 | |
Just up the road you can get this Georgian townhouse in Leamington. | 0:06:53 | 0:06:57 | |
Again three bedrooms and again, the last word in opulence. | 0:06:57 | 0:07:01 | |
But for less money. A mere £335,000. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:04 | |
But Matlock takes the biscuit, if not the Bath bun. | 0:07:04 | 0:07:07 | |
A charming three-bed cottage, with period features and fabulous views. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
And on the market for just shy of £350,000. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:15 | |
Right, time for a property-based rub down. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:18 | |
You're enjoying that, aren't you? | 0:07:18 | 0:07:20 | |
-Hi, Justin. -Hello. How you doing? Nice to see you. | 0:07:22 | 0:07:24 | |
Likewise. Thanks for speaking to me. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:26 | |
-No problem. -I'm hoping you can help me out. | 0:07:26 | 0:07:29 | |
Brad, by your accent, you're probably not going to | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
be able to help me on the property hunt of Bath. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:34 | |
No, probably not. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:35 | |
-Whereabouts are you from? -Canada. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:37 | |
OK. All right. The thing is, I've got a lady who's from... | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
from Spain, originally, but she wants to move back to Bath. | 0:07:40 | 0:07:43 | |
You've been here, you've got the, er, | 0:07:43 | 0:07:45 | |
you can view Bath as a true professional. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:47 | |
What do you like the best? | 0:07:47 | 0:07:49 | |
She's got a budget of £350,000 to spend. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
-Now, she is looking for three bedrooms. -Right. | 0:07:51 | 0:07:54 | |
Ideally, wants a, sort of, a period house, | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
traditional Bath-style property in the Bath stone. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:59 | |
-I know Bath comes at quite a premium. -It does, it does. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
So I appreciate that £350,000 may not get us far, | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
but does it sound realistic? | 0:08:05 | 0:08:06 | |
There are houses that would suit her. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
Area-wise, definitely, sort of, downtown. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:12 | |
-Um, sort of, high street-ish. -Uh-uh. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
Got a good culture in there. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:16 | |
And just this whole entire area. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:19 | |
Doing this job, you must be in a fancy penthouse, or something? | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
Yeah? Not quite. I do live in a three-bedroom flat, though. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
-Oh, really. -Yeah, yeah. Just Kingsmead Square. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
Are you prepared to sell it? | 0:08:29 | 0:08:31 | |
-No, no, no. I just got it. So, not a chance. -Ah. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:33 | |
It's a three-bed Edwardian. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Lots of features, pleasant garden. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
And this is all the Bath stone, is it? The original Bath stone? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
-Yeah. -Great. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:42 | |
Have you ever head massaged any estate agents, Brad? | 0:08:42 | 0:08:47 | |
Yes. I'm pretty sure I have. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:49 | |
-Are they a different breed? -They're a little more stressed, | 0:08:49 | 0:08:52 | |
especially at this time of year. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:54 | |
Very good point, Brad. Very well tied in. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:56 | |
How are you finding things down here, in the market? | 0:08:56 | 0:08:59 | |
Are your finding your vendors are quite open and acceptable to offers? | 0:08:59 | 0:09:03 | |
Get the price right, it will sell. | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
There are still buyers there. Less buyers, therefore, you must be more aggressive on pricing. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
Brad, if you're OK with this, can I call Steven, | 0:09:09 | 0:09:12 | |
-my estate agent contact, whilst this is going on? -Yeah, of course. Go ahead. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:17 | |
Hello, is that... Oh, hold on a second. Is that Steven? | 0:09:17 | 0:09:20 | |
-'It is, yeah.' -Steven, Steven. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:22 | |
-It's Ed here. How are you? -'Yeah, good thanks, Ed.' | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
Now, Steven, I'm receiving a head massage, as we speak, | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
but I figure I might as well multitask. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
Steven, what is the area of Bath like for a lady coming back, who used to lived here? | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
She wants the full experience of Bath in its glory. Where should she be? | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
When the market is difficult, you must have vendors | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
that have been on the market approaching a year? | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
We're now weeding them out, saying, "Got to be realistic. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:48 | |
-"We're not magicians. We're estate agents." -Yeah. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:50 | |
And people are realising there is a recession. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
It's here, whatever the banks or the government like to say. | 0:09:53 | 0:09:56 | |
Things are slow. You have to be realistic to sell. | 0:09:56 | 0:09:58 | |
OK, Steven, thank you. I've got to rush now, | 0:09:58 | 0:10:01 | |
because I've got to carry on house hunting. I'll see you later. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
-Cheers for that. -'Bye.' | 0:10:04 | 0:10:06 | |
-Let's give it another five minutes, eh, Brad, shall we? -Yeah, course. | 0:10:06 | 0:10:10 | |
-So, this is how it goes down, is it, Ed? -I beg your pardon? | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
I've actually been working. I've actually been working. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
I've called Steven up, who is an estate agent. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
And I've had the mystery property hunting team bike my details round. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
So, what I've done is I've... yes, had a massage on my head | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
with Brad, who's a lovely guy. And I've got this. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:30 | |
So, done everything lying down. What have you done? | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
Can I close my eyes through this and relax? | 0:10:33 | 0:10:35 | |
Yeah, make yourself comfortable. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
Property one. It's something special as far as apartments go. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
And I'm quietly confident that she'll be interested. | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
-That is good news. -I've also plumped for the joint choice. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:46 | |
-Really? And you're putting my name to it? -I am. -Is it a good one? | 0:10:46 | 0:10:49 | |
-I'll run through it and you let me know if you're happy with that. -OK. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:53 | |
-It's a period property. -Yep. -It's double bay fronted. | 0:10:53 | 0:10:56 | |
-Like it. -Made of Bath stone. -Nice. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:58 | |
It's got three bedrooms, a big kitchen, outside space | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
for the al fresco dining that she was interested in. | 0:11:01 | 0:11:04 | |
-And it's within budget. -I'll put my name to that. | 0:11:04 | 0:11:07 | |
Great. That's two properties. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:08 | |
I've gone for the wild card. Mine and the viewers' favourite part of the show. | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
I'm not going to show it you. Have a look at that? | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
-I like that. -It's a cracker. -Yeah. | 0:11:16 | 0:11:18 | |
It's a good end to the show. It's a 45 minute journey, um, | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
and that's a worthy, worthy end to it. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
I'm just going to pop it there, Do you want... | 0:11:23 | 0:11:25 | |
I'm just going to relax. Too relaxed. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
While Ed relaxes, let's start the journey. Property one. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
Picture the scene, Ed, you ready? | 0:11:33 | 0:11:35 | |
A bijou pied-a-terre in the centre of Bath. Full of character. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
Three bedrooms and the River Avon at the bottom of the garden. Ding, ding. Jackpot, baby! | 0:11:38 | 0:11:43 | |
But it's not actually a house, is it, Jonny? | 0:11:43 | 0:11:46 | |
Wasn't that quite far up Maria's list? As in, the top of it? | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
List, schmist. It's got two floors. And it's pretty special. | 0:11:50 | 0:11:54 | |
There are two major schools of thought | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
in the cliche-packed world of property. And they are as follows - | 0:11:56 | 0:11:59 | |
first impressions count and never judge a book by its cover. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:03 | |
Now, this property settles into the latter one. | 0:12:03 | 0:12:06 | |
Doesn't look like much. What do you think? | 0:12:06 | 0:12:08 | |
-Yeah. It's a bit on the plain side. -A bit disappointing. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:11 | |
-It's quite noisy, as well. -Yeah, the traffic. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:14 | |
Yes, it is. It is a fact, yes. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
Don't judge a book by its cover. Because inside it's delightful. | 0:12:16 | 0:12:19 | |
It won't blow your mind, but I think you'll be impressed. | 0:12:19 | 0:12:22 | |
-We'll take your word for it. -I hope so. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:24 | |
And, without saying too much, the garden is lovely. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:28 | |
It's really, really nice. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:29 | |
It is. So, what we can work with though - location. | 0:12:29 | 0:12:32 | |
We are obviously fairly central here, aren't we, Maria? What do you think? | 0:12:32 | 0:12:37 | |
Is this a good location for you? | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
Well, yes. I will say it is, yes. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
Because it's accessible to all the main places. Yes. | 0:12:41 | 0:12:44 | |
OK. Sue, is Maria being honest? | 0:12:44 | 0:12:45 | |
-Is this the right place? -Bit noisy for me. But, we'll see. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:50 | |
-OK. -It'll have to be good inside to warrant this. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:53 | |
Remember, this is Jonny's choice. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
-Please be kind to him. -Right. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:57 | |
-So, let's see. -OK. In three, two, one. Get in that house. -Right. | 0:12:57 | 0:13:00 | |
-Woo-hoo. -Straight in there. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:02 | |
All right, this is interesting. Hmm, bicycles. | 0:13:05 | 0:13:09 | |
I think it's back to student days, here. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
Right. Viva Maria, this place is going to rule. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
-Yeah? -Yeah. -Yeah. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:16 | |
I wonder who does the decoration of this entrance. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:19 | |
-Think it's communal living, isn't it? -Yep. | 0:13:19 | 0:13:22 | |
And, um... | 0:13:22 | 0:13:23 | |
..OK. | 0:13:26 | 0:13:28 | |
-Communal living? -Don't judge a book by its cover. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
-There's so much more. -They're inside the cover now and they're kind of seeing... | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
they've realised, oh, it's communal living. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:36 | |
Oh, look. There's a room in here. | 0:13:36 | 0:13:38 | |
But the question is, is it a bedroom or is it a living room? | 0:13:38 | 0:13:42 | |
-I don't know. It's not very big, is it? -No, no, it isn't. | 0:13:42 | 0:13:44 | |
It's not the lounge. It's one of the potential bedrooms. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:47 | |
-Good news. -It's a versatile room. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:49 | |
Nice and bright but, er... | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
Does it have double glazing? | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-I wouldn't think so, Maria. -No? | 0:13:54 | 0:13:55 | |
Can I have a little look through the window. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:58 | |
Oh, no, the windows need replacing, by the look of it. | 0:13:58 | 0:14:00 | |
That's it, yes. | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
I like the way they're picking up on all the positives so far. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:06 | |
Right, yes. Another room here. Yeah. | 0:14:06 | 0:14:08 | |
This is nice and bright. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:10 | |
-Well, it is. Yes. -Sunny room. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
-Natural light, people love it. -They certainly do. | 0:14:12 | 0:14:14 | |
I've been told in the area that a lot of houses in Bath | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
are quite dark when you get inside. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:19 | |
-Then this one is bucking the trend. -It really is. That's quite a rarity. | 0:14:19 | 0:14:23 | |
It is a nicer room than the front room. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:25 | |
And you can't hear the traffic as much. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:27 | |
No, no. The big difference is the noise that you get from the outside. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:31 | |
-Yes. -This has, er, nothing else. | 0:14:31 | 0:14:32 | |
Doesn't seem to have many power points, I've noticed. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:35 | |
-No. -One there. That's very poor. And in the other room only one. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:39 | |
Right, Jonny. It would seem it is time to play that age old game, | 0:14:39 | 0:14:43 | |
how do you solve a problem for Maria? | 0:14:43 | 0:14:45 | |
The power points, yeah? | 0:14:45 | 0:14:47 | |
-Love that. -How do you solve that? | 0:14:47 | 0:14:48 | |
I would call a local electrician. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
-OK. -And ask him to come and fit some new points. -Brilliant. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:54 | |
Right. So, well, this is a bit different. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
-Some stairs going down. -Like a landing with stairs. -Very mysterious. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:01 | |
When Maria says, "Different," it's like being damned by faint praise. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
Yeah, it is. And I don't even think there's any praise there. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:09 | |
-It's kind of like a massive negative point. -Yeah. | 0:15:09 | 0:15:12 | |
-Oh, I never thought we were stepping in the bathroom. -Bathroom. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:16 | |
So, that room at the front must be a bedroom, mustn't it? | 0:15:16 | 0:15:19 | |
-You think so? -I think so. There's a bathroom here. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:22 | |
You wouldn't have a living room, a bathroom, a bedroom and a bathroom. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
What about a kitchen? I was expecting to see it somewhere here. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:28 | |
-Sue. -There you go. Sue's just got it. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
Sue has put the old property Sherlock Holmes hat on. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
She's now worked out the rooms. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
But it is a good size. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:37 | |
-Nice tile floor. -Yes. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:40 | |
-Slate on the floor. -Yes. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
Nothing very special, is it though? | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
-No, no, no. -But it's a nice space. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
-You could do a lot with it, couldn't you? -Yes, I think so. Yes. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:51 | |
Lots of potential in that bathroom. If it didn't have anything in it. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |
-Which, I guess, is praise in a way. -Hmm. | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
Oh, so this is the living room. | 0:15:57 | 0:15:59 | |
Well, this is full of surprises. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
Yes it is, isn't it? | 0:16:01 | 0:16:03 | |
Quite a nice size. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
This must be a living room | 0:16:05 | 0:16:06 | |
because the fireplace is there. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:08 | |
Looks on to the garden. | 0:16:08 | 0:16:10 | |
Oh, yes. This area's a nice patio | 0:16:10 | 0:16:11 | |
-to put my terracotta pots. -Yes, lovely. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:15 | |
-Good, good, good, so far. -Not a bad size as well. | 0:16:15 | 0:16:19 | |
Yeah, I actually like this. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:20 | |
It has sort of character. | 0:16:20 | 0:16:22 | |
Dare I say Mediterranean, Jonny? | 0:16:22 | 0:16:25 | |
-It's full of surprises this house, isn't it? -Definitely. | 0:16:25 | 0:16:28 | |
Storage cupboards. | 0:16:28 | 0:16:30 | |
Oh, plenty of storage. Well, that's good because there's always... | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
A work bench there for you to do your woodwork on, Maria. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:37 | |
SHE LAUGHS | 0:16:37 | 0:16:39 | |
Woodwork? Woodwork? | 0:16:39 | 0:16:40 | |
Not only are they electricians. They're carpenters to boot. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
What do you think here, with this entrance? | 0:16:43 | 0:16:46 | |
Let's see what we've got. | 0:16:46 | 0:16:47 | |
-Oh, my God. -Oh, my goodness me! | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
Look at it? It's a coal cellar, is it? | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
Well, that is... I can apply the Spanish Inquisition here. | 0:16:54 | 0:16:59 | |
-Who lives within the... -A-a-a-ah! | 0:16:59 | 0:17:01 | |
I think you'd think there was a ghost lurking in here. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:03 | |
-Quite a frightening looking room. -The whole vault-y thing? -Yeah. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:07 | |
I wouldn't go in there if you paid me. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
Let's have a look in here. Come on, Maria. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:11 | |
All right, so which room? | 0:17:11 | 0:17:13 | |
Oh, this is a dining room. | 0:17:13 | 0:17:14 | |
I like the little fireplace. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
Yes. That's pretty, isn't it? | 0:17:16 | 0:17:18 | |
So, what period it is, this house? | 0:17:18 | 0:17:20 | |
-It is the... -I would think it's Georgian, wouldn't you? -Yes. | 0:17:20 | 0:17:25 | |
I don't think it's Victorian. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
What period? It's a Georgian house this, in fact. | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
-Made from traditional stone. -Was it? -Yeah, it's lovely. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:32 | |
-Oh, well, it's a pink kitchen. -Wow. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:35 | |
-Ideal for a girl. -That's different. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
I think the bathroom is bigger, isn't it? | 0:17:38 | 0:17:40 | |
-I'd say it's very similar size to the bathroom. -Right. | 0:17:40 | 0:17:43 | |
-You know what, Ed? I'm not going to pretend any more. -What? | 0:17:43 | 0:17:46 | |
They really don't like it. They just don't seem to really like it at all. | 0:17:46 | 0:17:50 | |
No. That is the problem with this. | 0:17:50 | 0:17:52 | |
What do you think? I think it's great. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
I like it. I mean, the people at home, um... | 0:17:54 | 0:17:56 | |
if you can force the cameraman through power of thought, right, to vote with yourselves. | 0:17:56 | 0:18:01 | |
Do you think they like the house? | 0:18:01 | 0:18:03 | |
No, they don't. That's impressive, they managed to do that. | 0:18:03 | 0:18:06 | |
Right. So, shall we ask the boys to see, find out. | 0:18:06 | 0:18:09 | |
Yes. We've got a lot of questions here, haven't we? | 0:18:09 | 0:18:11 | |
Definitely, yes. Absolutely, yes. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
We must remember all the questions that we have. Yes. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:19 | |
But it is an interesting property. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:20 | |
-Very. -So, let's find out. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:22 | |
Come this way, girls. How was that for you? | 0:18:25 | 0:18:28 | |
-Well, we're surprised. -Yeah? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
-Full of surprises. -Follow me down the garden path. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:33 | |
When you say surprise, were you talking good or bad surprises? | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
Well, mixed I will say, yes. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
-Because I notice that it is only two bedrooms. -Right. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:42 | |
-Although there's a possibility that maybe the dining room to be used as a bedroom. -Exactly, it's versatile. | 0:18:42 | 0:18:47 | |
But listen, out here, this is one of the major selling points of this property. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:51 | |
-Lovely garden. -The fact you've got this superb garden. -It is, yes. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
It is a lovely atmosphere with all this trees and all that. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:58 | |
And yet it's in the centre of Bath. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:01 | |
And I've just spotted at the bottom of the garden... Is that water? | 0:19:01 | 0:19:05 | |
Absolutely correct, Sue. That is a river. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
It's the River Avon. If you wanted to buy a boat, | 0:19:07 | 0:19:10 | |
you could keep it right down there. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
If you didn't want a boat, you could rent it out. Which would be nice. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
You've got mooring rights down there. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-I can see myself there sitting there doing my fishing. -Yeah, like that? -Yeah. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |
-I don't think you'll catch anything, But you have fun. -You never know. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
-Ed, come in here. -That's all the questions answered, bar one. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:29 | |
Which is how much does it cost? | 0:19:29 | 0:19:30 | |
Sue, you've not really spent any time in Bath, have you? | 0:19:30 | 0:19:33 | |
No, I haven't. I'd guess, a wild guess, 325? | 0:19:33 | 0:19:37 | |
Maria's the one who's going to be buying it. What do you think? | 0:19:37 | 0:19:40 | |
I will say 300. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:42 | |
Maria...you're bang on. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:44 | |
This is £300,000. You got it absolutely perfect. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
-Ah, amazing. Yeah. Wow, the winner. -Exactly. One-nil to you. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:50 | |
Ladies, as much as you've been bullied by Jonny into liking this property. | 0:19:50 | 0:19:54 | |
I think property two, the joint choice that Jonny and I have thrown together today, | 0:19:54 | 0:19:59 | |
might just tickle your fancy. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:00 | |
It's a short swim and a walk this way. You coming? | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
-Ah, well, are we swimming? -Yes? | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
That's how you fish. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:07 | |
Oh, sorry. I'm so used to driving. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
Let's swim this way. It'll take us a while. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:11 | |
Yeah, let's have a fish. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |
We're going all modern for the joint choice. | 0:20:15 | 0:20:18 | |
Well, for Bath anyway. Which isn't very modern at all. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
And neither is this Edwardian place. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
No, but I think we've done really well. Three double bedrooms, | 0:20:23 | 0:20:26 | |
gorgeous garden, nicely decorated. What more could Maria want? | 0:20:26 | 0:20:30 | |
And it's a proper house too. None of this two-floor apartment business. | 0:20:30 | 0:20:34 | |
She'll love it. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:35 | |
Now, Maria and Sue, after the first property we visited, | 0:20:35 | 0:20:39 | |
I have got an inkling, a feeling, | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
a sensation that the joint choice today | 0:20:41 | 0:20:44 | |
is going to be a little bit more up your street. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
Have a look at that. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:48 | |
Maria, what do you think? Is this kind of more what you're after? | 0:20:48 | 0:20:51 | |
Um... Sort of. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |
I'd be interested in seeing what it is like inside. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:59 | |
OK. What's holding you back? There's a hesitation. | 0:20:59 | 0:21:02 | |
I think it's mainly having a school at the end of the road. | 0:21:02 | 0:21:08 | |
-Well. -Yes. -Here's a question. What time are you at work from and till? | 0:21:08 | 0:21:14 | |
Difficult to tell. Sometimes I am at home and sometimes I am at work. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:18 | |
I hoped you'd say you get back at five so I could say you'll never see the schoolchildren. | 0:21:18 | 0:21:23 | |
You could turn that round. From a resale view, | 0:21:23 | 0:21:26 | |
having a school in the neighbourhood is going to be really beneficial. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
Yeah, it could be. Thinking about it in long term, yeah maybe, yes. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
It's a nice house. It's Edwardian. | 0:21:33 | 0:21:35 | |
-It's made of Bath stone. -It looks nice. | 0:21:35 | 0:21:36 | |
Believe it or not, despite my earlier efforts, | 0:21:36 | 0:21:39 | |
this has got everything you want. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:41 | |
Bath stone. What famous building is made out of Bath stone? | 0:21:41 | 0:21:44 | |
Hmm, this is a question. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:47 | |
Buckingham Palace! | 0:21:47 | 0:21:48 | |
If it's good enough for the Queen, is it good enough for you, Maria? | 0:21:48 | 0:21:52 | |
-Sue, what do you think? -Stylish. -Good. -Clean. | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
Thank you. In three, two, one. Be that house. Go on. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:58 | |
Get yourselves in there, girls. | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
Buckingham Palace, remember? | 0:21:59 | 0:22:01 | |
An interesting fact about Buckingham Palace, | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
obviously this house being built of the same material, it's built back to front. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:13 | |
-Oh. -Built back to front. -Right. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:15 | |
-I had no idea... -Let the tour commence. | 0:22:15 | 0:22:17 | |
It's quite narrow here, isn't it? | 0:22:17 | 0:22:19 | |
-It is, yes. It is. -Narrow staircase. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
Of course it's cramped. It's a corridor. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:24 | |
Oh, well. So, this goes through... | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
-It's a lounge-cum-dining room. -That's it, yes. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:30 | |
-Nice bay window. -Um-hmm. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
-Plenty of light. -That's it. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:34 | |
With the joint choice we have stuck with the - hard to find in Bath - | 0:22:34 | 0:22:38 | |
light and airy house. We've found another one. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:40 | |
But I like the character of the room. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:42 | |
-They kept it... -Nice features. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:44 | |
..I imagine it's the original colouring in here. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
So, quite strange to have two different periods of fireplaces. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:54 | |
Well, they don't match, do they? | 0:22:54 | 0:22:56 | |
Yes, the fireplaces don't match, Sue. But you could replace them. | 0:22:56 | 0:23:00 | |
The fireplace that you think doesn't match the one that you think is original, is actually Victorian. | 0:23:00 | 0:23:05 | |
-When this is from where? -Edwardian. -Yes. | 0:23:05 | 0:23:07 | |
So, you could just go and get two Edwardian fireplaces and they'd be... Sue! | 0:23:07 | 0:23:11 | |
Argh! She's got me annoyed. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
Well, we'll see the rest of the house. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:16 | |
So far, so good. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
-Got a nice stone floor here. -Yeah, like the flooring. It's good, yes. | 0:23:20 | 0:23:25 | |
And a nice size kitchen. | 0:23:25 | 0:23:27 | |
Yes, with the breakfast area. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:29 | |
It's handy, isn't it? Yes. | 0:23:29 | 0:23:32 | |
What I'm hoping they're going to like is the lounge diners, the great living area, | 0:23:32 | 0:23:36 | |
the kitchen diner means you've got an informal dining choice | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
as well as a formal one in the main room. | 0:23:39 | 0:23:41 | |
Units look new though, Maria, don't they? | 0:23:41 | 0:23:44 | |
Yes, yes, yeah. It is a nice kitchen. | 0:23:44 | 0:23:46 | |
It is. And it overlooks the garden, which is another asset, isn't it? | 0:23:46 | 0:23:51 | |
Oh, yes. And it has an apple tree. I always have liked apple trees. | 0:23:51 | 0:23:57 | |
Lovely kitchen. Shaker style units. Fully integrated as well. | 0:23:57 | 0:24:00 | |
We've got washer-dryer, dishwasher, refrigerator, freezer. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
-Wow. -And a lovely big stainless steel six-ring type range cooker thing. | 0:24:03 | 0:24:07 | |
-I like them. I do like them. -Yeah. It's a chef's kitchen. | 0:24:07 | 0:24:09 | |
Right. So, now upstairs. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:12 | |
A bit narrow, don't you think? | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
-Yes, rather narrow. -Definitely. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:17 | |
But it's a narrow house, it's a terraced house. | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
And I think also the colours being dark, it makes it narrow. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
-Yes, they do. If they were lighter... -Where shall we go? Forward? | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
Then, let's go this way, shall we? | 0:24:25 | 0:24:28 | |
Ah, a blue room. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
-Very blue. -Ah. | 0:24:30 | 0:24:31 | |
Quite a nice size room, anyways. | 0:24:32 | 0:24:34 | |
-Yes, yes, because it does fits a double. -It's a boy's room, isn't it? | 0:24:34 | 0:24:38 | |
-Yes, it is. -Overlooking the garden. | 0:24:38 | 0:24:40 | |
-This is nice. -They've kept the original fireplaces. | 0:24:40 | 0:24:42 | |
Which is nice, isn't it? | 0:24:42 | 0:24:44 | |
Let's see if it's got power points. | 0:24:44 | 0:24:45 | |
Oh, she's done it! | 0:24:45 | 0:24:47 | |
Sue's done it again. She's done it again. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:50 | |
Can't find any. | 0:24:50 | 0:24:51 | |
Power points... Argh! Sue! | 0:24:51 | 0:24:54 | |
Right, into the bathroom, Maria. An avocado suite. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:57 | |
Oh right. Yes, an electric shower. | 0:24:57 | 0:24:59 | |
That's cream, not avocado. | 0:24:59 | 0:25:01 | |
-OK. -That's cleared that up. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
And cream was only out of fashion ten years. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:05 | |
Avocado was 20. So... | 0:25:05 | 0:25:07 | |
Like, very plain. | 0:25:07 | 0:25:10 | |
I think it's probably old-fashioned, don't you think? | 0:25:10 | 0:25:12 | |
Because the sink doesn't match the bath. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:14 | |
It's probably quite an old suite, isn't it? | 0:25:14 | 0:25:17 | |
Because this avocado was fashionable about 20 years ago, wasn't it? | 0:25:17 | 0:25:21 | |
Oh, right. Oh, interesting. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:23 | |
What is fashion? | 0:25:23 | 0:25:25 | |
(Not that. It's not that. | 0:25:25 | 0:25:27 | |
(It's that. It is that.) | 0:25:27 | 0:25:29 | |
MOUTHS | 0:25:29 | 0:25:31 | |
It is that. | 0:25:31 | 0:25:32 | |
Another nice big bedroom or study. | 0:25:32 | 0:25:36 | |
Good size. Yeah. If I use it as a study, | 0:25:36 | 0:25:39 | |
-probably will be a problem... -You'd have to have a sofa bed. | 0:25:39 | 0:25:44 | |
Who wouldn't want a sofa in the study? | 0:25:44 | 0:25:46 | |
Do a bit of study then have a little snooze. Study, snooze. | 0:25:46 | 0:25:49 | |
So, a futon or something like that. | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
-Definitely. -But it is quite a big room to do that. | 0:25:51 | 0:25:54 | |
It is a good size and I like the fireplace. | 0:25:54 | 0:25:56 | |
-Yes. It's cosy, isn't it? -It's nice. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:58 | |
You could even have a little fire in there, you know? | 0:25:58 | 0:26:01 | |
A little stove or something. Electric one or gas. | 0:26:01 | 0:26:04 | |
I love where Sue's coming from. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:06 | |
The optimism's flowing back in. | 0:26:06 | 0:26:08 | |
Let's go and have a look at the third bedroom, Maria. | 0:26:08 | 0:26:11 | |
-All right. Yes, yes. -Oh, a nice light room. Quite large. | 0:26:11 | 0:26:15 | |
Yeah, I like this. Yes, because this... | 0:26:15 | 0:26:17 | |
-I have always liked rooms with plenty of light. -Absolutely. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:21 | |
-Yes. And also it can fit a king bed size bed. -Yes. | 0:26:21 | 0:26:27 | |
Yes, I like this room. Definitely. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:29 | |
-It's a pleasant room. -It's nice in white. | 0:26:29 | 0:26:31 | |
In fact, I've been told that painting a house white | 0:26:31 | 0:26:34 | |
gives you this sense of tranquillity. | 0:26:34 | 0:26:36 | |
Difficult in my case because I never feel that relaxed. | 0:26:36 | 0:26:41 | |
-You might do in Bath. -Right. | 0:26:41 | 0:26:42 | |
OK. So, the kitchen's great. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
The living space is fine. The bedrooms are spot-on. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:47 | |
Apart from the hall, which is pointless as no-one even lives in a hall. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
OK, Maria and Sue, follow us through. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |
Now, is it fair to say that this viewing went a little bit better than the first one? | 0:26:56 | 0:27:01 | |
Well, this house is... It's in a better condition. Yes, definitely. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:06 | |
It doesn't need as much work done on it as the previous one. | 0:27:06 | 0:27:09 | |
-That was a real concern, wasn't it? -Yes, that's it. Yes. It has three bedrooms and I like the garden. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:15 | |
-Seems to have an apple tree, which are my favourite ones. -Which is good. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:19 | |
Sue, what is your obsession with power points, right? | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
It seems to go so well and then it's like, where are the power points? | 0:27:22 | 0:27:25 | |
-Where's this come from? -Isn't that important? -Well, it is. | 0:27:25 | 0:27:28 | |
It's so annoying when you go into a house | 0:27:28 | 0:27:30 | |
and you need extensions because there's not enough power points. | 0:27:30 | 0:27:34 | |
We discussed a solution for this. | 0:27:34 | 0:27:36 | |
-Get an electrician round. -Well, exactly. | 0:27:36 | 0:27:38 | |
I must admit, when I, when I see Sue say it, it makes sense. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:41 | |
Now, do you remember what I was saying about the Bath stone... | 0:27:41 | 0:27:44 | |
this being built from that. And also Buckingham Palace? | 0:27:44 | 0:27:48 | |
Do you want a Bath stone fact to impress your friends? | 0:27:48 | 0:27:50 | |
Did you know that it's an oolitic limestone? | 0:27:50 | 0:27:53 | |
Very soft and crumbly in the ground. | 0:27:53 | 0:27:55 | |
But when you expose it to air, it becomes rock solid. | 0:27:55 | 0:27:57 | |
-I didn't know that. -Didn't, did you? | 0:27:57 | 0:27:59 | |
-No, we didn't. -Interesting. -Get out there and tell your friends. -Great asset. | 0:27:59 | 0:28:03 | |
Listen, it's guess the price time. Maria, you are one-nil up. | 0:28:03 | 0:28:06 | |
Very well done. Your top budget is £350,000. | 0:28:06 | 0:28:10 | |
You can go first. How much do you think? | 0:28:10 | 0:28:12 | |
Erm... 320? | 0:28:12 | 0:28:15 | |
-OK. -OK. Not bad guess. Sue, what do you think? | 0:28:15 | 0:28:18 | |
300? | 0:28:18 | 0:28:20 | |
It's £310,000. So, that makes guess the price officially a tie. | 0:28:20 | 0:28:26 | |
I don't think we've tickled your taste buds enough so far. | 0:28:26 | 0:28:29 | |
-No. -You know, number one didn't float your boat. | 0:28:29 | 0:28:31 | |
This one, we've had to extract the joy. There is one more property. | 0:28:31 | 0:28:35 | |
It is my pleasure today, to do the wild card. I don't often get this, | 0:28:35 | 0:28:39 | |
so please be kind to it. | 0:28:39 | 0:28:41 | |
-Try to be. -And I think it's this way. | 0:28:41 | 0:28:43 | |
Sue, you better be kind to it, otherwise you'll be in trouble. | 0:28:43 | 0:28:46 | |
-I'll try. -All right? | 0:28:46 | 0:28:47 | |
OK. I know today's wild card is very wild, | 0:28:54 | 0:28:57 | |
but I reckon it'll appeal to Maria's wild Mediterranean side. | 0:28:57 | 0:29:00 | |
She'll be wild when she sees that there's no access by car down to the house. | 0:29:00 | 0:29:05 | |
Don't let mere access problems | 0:29:05 | 0:29:07 | |
quench the spark of imagination in this place. | 0:29:07 | 0:29:10 | |
It's a moment captured in time. | 0:29:10 | 0:29:13 | |
The wild card, the wild card. Everyone's favourite part of the show is the wild card. | 0:29:13 | 0:29:18 | |
And what a cracker we have for you in this beautiful part of Bath. | 0:29:18 | 0:29:22 | |
Are you ready? Is everyone ready? | 0:29:22 | 0:29:24 | |
Are we all steady, and so? Let's get to this position. | 0:29:24 | 0:29:26 | |
So as we can see it perfectly. | 0:29:26 | 0:29:28 | |
Viewers at home you can now... | 0:29:28 | 0:29:29 | |
-Can we look? -..open your eyes with Maria and Sue and Jonny, and look. | 0:29:29 | 0:29:34 | |
Oh. Oh, wow! | 0:29:34 | 0:29:36 | |
-Wow. Oh, yes! -There you go. | 0:29:36 | 0:29:38 | |
That's all right, isn't it? | 0:29:38 | 0:29:39 | |
Let's have the first thoughts, Sue. | 0:29:39 | 0:29:41 | |
-Cos you have been the harshest one so far. -Have I? | 0:29:41 | 0:29:44 | |
You have, Sue. Don't pretend. | 0:29:44 | 0:29:45 | |
-What do you think? -I think it's fantastic. -Brilliant. | 0:29:45 | 0:29:48 | |
Maria, you're the one buying the house. Hopefully this one. | 0:29:48 | 0:29:51 | |
Exactly. I like the balcony. | 0:29:51 | 0:29:53 | |
-Looks very continental. -Yes. | 0:29:53 | 0:29:55 | |
-Which is what we were going for. -Absolutely. Yes. Mmm. | 0:29:55 | 0:29:58 | |
Ladies, we're in the very desirable area of Bath Eastern. | 0:29:58 | 0:30:01 | |
Have you heard of Bath Eastern? This is quite hot. | 0:30:01 | 0:30:05 | |
This house is nothing short of beautiful. | 0:30:05 | 0:30:07 | |
-And we're really tucked away down here. -Yes. | 0:30:07 | 0:30:10 | |
-Look at that. -It sounds very much like me. | 0:30:10 | 0:30:12 | |
-Short and beautiful. -Oh, Maria! | 0:30:12 | 0:30:15 | |
What's it like on the inside? Find out in a second. | 0:30:15 | 0:30:18 | |
-The entrance is this way. -Can we go? -Be on your best behaviour, Sue. | 0:30:18 | 0:30:21 | |
-I'll try. -They seem to really like it. | 0:30:21 | 0:30:24 | |
-I think they love it. -Yeah. Croquet? | 0:30:24 | 0:30:25 | |
-I love the idea. With headphones? -I love where you're at. | 0:30:25 | 0:30:29 | |
1,001, 1,002, 1,003... Ah! 1,003. | 0:30:33 | 0:30:36 | |
-I got to 12. -It's not bad though, is it? | 0:30:36 | 0:30:38 | |
We're going in this room first. | 0:30:38 | 0:30:40 | |
This looks like a study. | 0:30:40 | 0:30:41 | |
Yeah. Very sunny with, um... with, um, the patio there. | 0:30:41 | 0:30:46 | |
-The view is absolutely fantastic. -Wow! | 0:30:46 | 0:30:49 | |
-Yes, definitely. -Yeah, very nice. | 0:30:49 | 0:30:52 | |
We have three bedrooms. They're currently in the one that overlooks this beautiful view. | 0:30:52 | 0:30:57 | |
You're not overlooked in any way. | 0:30:57 | 0:30:59 | |
There's a room there. Let's look. | 0:30:59 | 0:31:01 | |
I think it's more of a wardrobe. | 0:31:01 | 0:31:03 | |
Oh, right. Let's see whether there's any light in there. | 0:31:03 | 0:31:06 | |
Is this the one? Oh, yeah. | 0:31:06 | 0:31:08 | |
Oh, yes, this a very deep wardrobe. | 0:31:08 | 0:31:10 | |
It's a walk in wardrobe, isn't it? | 0:31:10 | 0:31:12 | |
Plenty of space inside, yes. | 0:31:12 | 0:31:15 | |
Maria's loving it, isn't she? | 0:31:15 | 0:31:16 | |
Rightly so. It's genuinely awesome. | 0:31:16 | 0:31:18 | |
-You've done fantastic. -I really have. | 0:31:18 | 0:31:20 | |
Oh, wow. Look at this room. | 0:31:20 | 0:31:23 | |
-Lovely big space, isn't it? Living space. -Oh, excellent. | 0:31:23 | 0:31:26 | |
Now, Jonny, this house has probably not got the same amount of character as property two, | 0:31:26 | 0:31:31 | |
but it has the stove. Hopefully they won't miss that. | 0:31:31 | 0:31:34 | |
It has, um... | 0:31:34 | 0:31:36 | |
-wooden burner. -A wood-burning stove, yes. | 0:31:36 | 0:31:39 | |
-Oh, fantastic. I like that. -Very nice. -Yes. | 0:31:39 | 0:31:41 | |
-This is a very cosy sitting area. -Yeah. And I like the open space. | 0:31:41 | 0:31:45 | |
Yes, it gives a feeling of room and space, doesn't it? | 0:31:45 | 0:31:49 | |
-Definitely, yes. -No, I like that. | 0:31:49 | 0:31:51 | |
-Really nice. -Yeah. I do. | 0:31:51 | 0:31:53 | |
Ah, this is great. | 0:31:53 | 0:31:54 | |
They're working as a team now. Sue is mopping up the housing terminology - | 0:31:54 | 0:31:58 | |
spacious. And Maria's doing the fine details there. | 0:31:58 | 0:32:00 | |
Oh, what is this? | 0:32:00 | 0:32:03 | |
-Very nice. -Wow, a Jacuzzi. | 0:32:03 | 0:32:05 | |
What a lovely, lovely bathroom. | 0:32:05 | 0:32:07 | |
This is possibly one of the... | 0:32:07 | 0:32:09 | |
sexiest bathrooms we have come across. | 0:32:09 | 0:32:11 | |
It is absolutely awesome in there. | 0:32:11 | 0:32:13 | |
Wonderful. Bit of imagination, isn't it? | 0:32:13 | 0:32:16 | |
That's it, yes. | 0:32:16 | 0:32:17 | |
Is this slate, do you think? | 0:32:17 | 0:32:19 | |
I think so, yes. Definitely, yes. | 0:32:19 | 0:32:22 | |
And I like the towel rail because that's really good for...yeah. | 0:32:22 | 0:32:26 | |
1,003, 4, 1,005, oh! | 0:32:26 | 0:32:29 | |
1,005. I'm getting very close. | 0:32:29 | 0:32:31 | |
-How many have you got? -Erm... | 0:32:31 | 0:32:33 | |
One, two, three, four. | 0:32:34 | 0:32:36 | |
Only four? I got 1,005. | 0:32:36 | 0:32:39 | |
Let's go in here, Marie. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
-Lovely, small bedroom here. -Oh, yes. | 0:32:41 | 0:32:44 | |
-Isn't it? -Luckily I'm not very tall because look at the ceiling. | 0:32:44 | 0:32:48 | |
Yeah, the ceilings are very low. | 0:32:48 | 0:32:50 | |
First time I can touch a ceiling. | 0:32:50 | 0:32:52 | |
She says luckily, it's not luck. | 0:32:52 | 0:32:54 | |
It's myself and the property hunting team and Brad the masseur that have organised this. | 0:32:54 | 0:32:58 | |
Did you remember me in the buyer's chat sneaking behind Maria measuring her? | 0:32:58 | 0:33:02 | |
-Do you not remember? -Is that what you were doing? -Yeah. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:05 | |
-I thought it was weird. -Worked it all out for that. It's all tailor made. | 0:33:05 | 0:33:09 | |
These are the bedrooms. | 0:33:09 | 0:33:11 | |
Oh, right. Another bedroom. And I thought this was the kitchen. | 0:33:11 | 0:33:14 | |
Oh, that's a nice room. | 0:33:14 | 0:33:16 | |
-Very nice. -Like it. -Oh, gosh. Look at the view over the garden. | 0:33:16 | 0:33:19 | |
-Oh, God. This is the... beautiful view. Yes. -Very nice. | 0:33:19 | 0:33:23 | |
They're in the biggest bedroom now. The master bedroom. | 0:33:23 | 0:33:26 | |
Lovely wooden floors, bright decor with those French doors opening out onto the terrace/veranda. | 0:33:26 | 0:33:31 | |
It's lovely. | 0:33:31 | 0:33:32 | |
Do you think these are 1930s' doors? | 0:33:32 | 0:33:34 | |
I wonder what the age of this house is. | 0:33:34 | 0:33:36 | |
I would say sort of '60s. | 0:33:36 | 0:33:38 | |
Wasn't it '60s, '70s when they, sort of, used to... | 0:33:38 | 0:33:41 | |
board up everything and it was flat. | 0:33:41 | 0:33:43 | |
They look quite, quite solid. | 0:33:43 | 0:33:46 | |
-Do you know the age of the property? -I'm going to throw out '50s? | 0:33:46 | 0:33:49 | |
Yeah, it is. About mid-'50s. | 0:33:49 | 0:33:51 | |
I think 1956. | 0:33:51 | 0:33:53 | |
Oh, wow! How lovely. | 0:33:53 | 0:33:56 | |
Isn't it a fantastic kitchen? | 0:33:56 | 0:33:58 | |
-It is. Superb. -Yes. Oh, I love it. Yes. It is really nice. | 0:33:58 | 0:34:02 | |
And look at the view, Maria. | 0:34:02 | 0:34:04 | |
What I love is all the glass around. | 0:34:04 | 0:34:07 | |
-You can see. -And the wood. The wood is just superb. | 0:34:07 | 0:34:10 | |
It is nice. | 0:34:10 | 0:34:11 | |
The best room in the house. | 0:34:11 | 0:34:12 | |
This room. | 0:34:12 | 0:34:14 | |
It is very, very, very deceiving | 0:34:14 | 0:34:18 | |
because from outside you don't imagine that it's so modern inside. | 0:34:18 | 0:34:21 | |
Somebody's had a lot of imagination, haven't they? | 0:34:21 | 0:34:24 | |
That's it, yes. Yeah, definite. | 0:34:24 | 0:34:26 | |
-Very nice. -I like the cooker there and the oven. Everything is nice. | 0:34:26 | 0:34:30 | |
This is a good worktop, isn't it? | 0:34:30 | 0:34:33 | |
-Good work surface here. -That's it, yes. | 0:34:33 | 0:34:35 | |
Yeah. I like the split level idea. That's good. | 0:34:35 | 0:34:38 | |
Yes, yes. I like wooden floors. | 0:34:38 | 0:34:41 | |
Well thought out. | 0:34:41 | 0:34:43 | |
This is just fantastic. It's like being on holiday! | 0:34:43 | 0:34:46 | |
Absolutely stunning view. | 0:34:46 | 0:34:48 | |
Come on, Maria. Let's sit down and enjoy the sunshine and the view. | 0:34:48 | 0:34:53 | |
Yes, yes. | 0:34:53 | 0:34:55 | |
-Oh, this is glorious. -Oh, lovely. Hello, boys. | 0:34:55 | 0:34:58 | |
-Hello. You having a lovely time? -Oh, yes. | 0:34:58 | 0:35:00 | |
Yes, it is absolutely stunning to be here, yes. | 0:35:00 | 0:35:03 | |
-I love this decking. -I think this is an extension. -Do you think so? | 0:35:03 | 0:35:07 | |
It's had an extension. It is an extension. | 0:35:07 | 0:35:09 | |
I'm no, I'm no property Poirot, but look at that. | 0:35:09 | 0:35:12 | |
Of course it's an extension. | 0:35:12 | 0:35:14 | |
And it looks all newly done, doesn't it? | 0:35:14 | 0:35:16 | |
I don't think it's been done very long. | 0:35:16 | 0:35:18 | |
Yeah, but definitely the garden is absolutely beautiful. | 0:35:18 | 0:35:21 | |
I think he's still in the middle of doing it. | 0:35:21 | 0:35:23 | |
He's facing it with this wood. | 0:35:23 | 0:35:25 | |
Want to play guess the price? | 0:35:25 | 0:35:27 | |
-Oh, yeah. -Yeah, let's play that. Let's play guess the price. | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
I do really, really want to know the price, yes. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:32 | |
-Hello. -Hello. | 0:35:35 | 0:35:37 | |
-Hello, hello, hello, hello. OK, if you could. -Can we sit down? | 0:35:37 | 0:35:41 | |
Yes, come on. Let's make it like the '60s. | 0:35:41 | 0:35:43 | |
Right, now, Sue, you were on your best behaviour in there. | 0:35:43 | 0:35:47 | |
-Was I? -Well... or did you genuinely love it? -No. It is a super house inside. | 0:35:47 | 0:35:51 | |
-It is, isn't it? -Really good, yeah. | 0:35:51 | 0:35:53 | |
-Maria, what did you think? -I think it's fantastic. | 0:35:53 | 0:35:56 | |
Yes, I love... Particularly I like the sunny kitchen and the balcony. | 0:35:56 | 0:36:02 | |
The focal point of the property, isn't it? | 0:36:02 | 0:36:04 | |
-Exactly. -It's interesting because at the beginning of the show, | 0:36:04 | 0:36:08 | |
you were saying that you wanted a traditional Bath stone property, | 0:36:08 | 0:36:11 | |
but this is completely different. | 0:36:11 | 0:36:13 | |
It's as far removed from that as you could possibly get. | 0:36:13 | 0:36:16 | |
It is, yes. It is. The bathroom is absolutely fantastic. | 0:36:16 | 0:36:19 | |
-Stunning. -Absolutely, yes. | 0:36:19 | 0:36:21 | |
So, you can see yourself having parties? | 0:36:21 | 0:36:23 | |
Oh, absolutely. Look at this, all this grounds. | 0:36:23 | 0:36:26 | |
Was that you dancing for a second? | 0:36:26 | 0:36:29 | |
Ideal for a, for, um, parties. | 0:36:29 | 0:36:31 | |
-Yeah. Even a barbecue's down in the garden there. -Exactly. | 0:36:31 | 0:36:34 | |
What are you thinking? Ed's brought you to this fantastic property, | 0:36:34 | 0:36:38 | |
but has he got you a bargain? | 0:36:38 | 0:36:40 | |
Is it within budget or has he sailed beyond it? | 0:36:40 | 0:36:42 | |
-Well, that is a big question. -So, it's guess the price time. | 0:36:42 | 0:36:45 | |
-It is, it is. -Who wants to go first? -You go first. | 0:36:45 | 0:36:49 | |
-Yeah, me? Um... -Let's just remind ourselves of your budget. | 0:36:49 | 0:36:53 | |
-It's £350,000. -Right. -What do you think this place is on for? | 0:36:53 | 0:36:57 | |
Because of the grounds and because I would need to buy | 0:36:57 | 0:37:01 | |
a couple of donkeys to carry my shopping. | 0:37:01 | 0:37:04 | |
Um, I will say that is 325? | 0:37:04 | 0:37:10 | |
OK. | 0:37:10 | 0:37:12 | |
310. | 0:37:12 | 0:37:13 | |
HE EXHALES | 0:37:13 | 0:37:14 | |
Maria, it's £340,000. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:17 | |
-Oh, right. -So, it's right near the top of your budget. | 0:37:17 | 0:37:20 | |
Now, there is room for negotiation, considering your position | 0:37:20 | 0:37:23 | |
that you are a cash buyer. | 0:37:23 | 0:37:25 | |
You're ready to go. You're as good as it gets. | 0:37:25 | 0:37:27 | |
Right. Well, that's good to know that. | 0:37:27 | 0:37:29 | |
Ladies, you now have to go away | 0:37:29 | 0:37:33 | |
and make the biggest decision of your adult lives. | 0:37:33 | 0:37:36 | |
About which one you wish to test drive. | 0:37:36 | 0:37:38 | |
Jonny and I cannot help you. | 0:37:38 | 0:37:40 | |
-Are you up for this? -Absolutely. -Good stuff. Wander down there. | 0:37:40 | 0:37:43 | |
Maybe take a cappuccino in Bath and just think about it for a while. | 0:37:43 | 0:37:47 | |
-And we'll see you later. -That's a good idea. | 0:37:47 | 0:37:49 | |
Yes, we know where to go, don't we? | 0:37:49 | 0:37:51 | |
All right. Well, head off that way and we'll see you later. | 0:37:51 | 0:37:54 | |
-Fantastic. -Thank you. -Good luck. -See you, boys. -See you. | 0:37:54 | 0:37:57 | |
-Oh, dear. Right. There we are. -See you later. | 0:37:57 | 0:37:59 | |
While they're off doing that, here's a recap. | 0:37:59 | 0:38:01 | |
Right then, will my bijou duplex apartment | 0:38:02 | 0:38:05 | |
with the Mediterranean garden and mooring rights float Maria's boat? Bang in Bath proper | 0:38:05 | 0:38:09 | |
and affordable at £300,000. | 0:38:09 | 0:38:12 | |
I reckon our joint choice. | 0:38:12 | 0:38:13 | |
The Bath stone beauty with three bedrooms and an apple tree, | 0:38:13 | 0:38:17 | |
but not quite enough power points might do it. | 0:38:17 | 0:38:19 | |
A tad dearer at £310,000. | 0:38:19 | 0:38:22 | |
You know, Ed, maybe the charms of the croquet lawn, | 0:38:22 | 0:38:25 | |
al fresco lifestyle and balcony at your wild card will swing it. | 0:38:25 | 0:38:28 | |
That bathroom could tip the balance all by itself. | 0:38:28 | 0:38:31 | |
Still under the budget at 340K. | 0:38:31 | 0:38:33 | |
Things are looking good in the kitchen. But which kitchen? | 0:38:36 | 0:38:39 | |
Ah, no wonder Sue's going all wild. She's in the wild card kitchen. | 0:38:39 | 0:38:44 | |
Sue's obviously a lady of taste. | 0:38:47 | 0:38:50 | |
I can't wait to eat all that. Sue's invited us along later, you know. | 0:38:50 | 0:38:54 | |
Hang on! Who's arrived to eat our tea? | 0:38:54 | 0:38:56 | |
I tell you what, though, Maria's really going for the al fresco dining experience. | 0:38:57 | 0:39:02 | |
No, don't bring all the food out. Just bring the wine. | 0:39:02 | 0:39:05 | |
It's not looking hopeful for us. | 0:39:05 | 0:39:07 | |
Maybe there'll be an olive left. Or some scraps of patatas bravas. | 0:39:07 | 0:39:10 | |
Hello. | 0:39:22 | 0:39:24 | |
-Hello there, boys. -Did no-one say that we'd be turning up for the food? | 0:39:24 | 0:39:27 | |
Well, you've come a bit late. | 0:39:27 | 0:39:29 | |
-Where have you been? -I don't know! | 0:39:29 | 0:39:31 | |
We were so hungry we had to start. | 0:39:31 | 0:39:33 | |
-We heard that you invited us for this time. -You're late. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:35 | |
No, we didn't, we said half an hour ago. | 0:39:35 | 0:39:38 | |
-Anyway, have a drink. -All right. This is awful. | 0:39:38 | 0:39:40 | |
It's still far too early. | 0:39:40 | 0:39:42 | |
Now, what I want to know. | 0:39:42 | 0:39:44 | |
-Yeah. -What I want to know, you've had the friends round. | 0:39:44 | 0:39:47 | |
What do they think about this property? | 0:39:47 | 0:39:50 | |
Well, they thought it is... that it is a fantastic place, yes. | 0:39:50 | 0:39:55 | |
Lovely, especially for these type of occasions. | 0:39:55 | 0:39:58 | |
Entertaining friends, the decking, fantastic. | 0:39:58 | 0:40:01 | |
And the property has a cosy feeling as well. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:05 | |
Umm... So, in and out we are pleasantly happy. Yeah, yeah. | 0:40:05 | 0:40:11 | |
Good stuff. Sue, how's it gone for you? | 0:40:11 | 0:40:13 | |
-Yes. Well, this property is a little jewel. -I like it. I like it. | 0:40:13 | 0:40:17 | |
Especially on a day like today. | 0:40:17 | 0:40:19 | |
Entertaining, cooking, wonderful. | 0:40:19 | 0:40:21 | |
Gorgeous kitchen. | 0:40:21 | 0:40:23 | |
No, it is superb. But... | 0:40:23 | 0:40:25 | |
there's always got to be a but, hasn't it? | 0:40:25 | 0:40:27 | |
There's always a but with you, Sue. | 0:40:27 | 0:40:29 | |
The access is very difficult. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:32 | |
Can't get a car down to the property. | 0:40:32 | 0:40:35 | |
So, is your glass half full or half empty at the moment? | 0:40:35 | 0:40:37 | |
-Well, I'm a half full person. -Yeah? -All the way. | 0:40:37 | 0:40:41 | |
From a property point of view, you can see yourself here | 0:40:41 | 0:40:44 | |
enjoying the space you've got around you. | 0:40:44 | 0:40:46 | |
Yes. Yeah, from that point of view, yes. | 0:40:46 | 0:40:49 | |
But I definitely have to get a better job. | 0:40:49 | 0:40:52 | |
So that I can get a helicopter that lands right on there. Yeah. | 0:40:52 | 0:40:56 | |
We can't end the show without the important question. | 0:40:56 | 0:40:59 | |
I think we've kind of danced round it already. | 0:40:59 | 0:41:02 | |
And I think I know what the answer's going to be. But, but here we go. | 0:41:02 | 0:41:05 | |
To buy or not to buy, Maria? That is the question. | 0:41:05 | 0:41:08 | |
Big question. | 0:41:08 | 0:41:11 | |
I will say, at this moment in time, I will say I love the property. | 0:41:11 | 0:41:16 | |
I love the garden. | 0:41:16 | 0:41:18 | |
But I have to give a good thought to that question before I commit myself to say to buy. | 0:41:18 | 0:41:23 | |
It's all about the access, isn't it? | 0:41:23 | 0:41:25 | |
That's it, yes. That's the main worry for me. | 0:41:25 | 0:41:27 | |
Maybe if we at night time just chop | 0:41:27 | 0:41:29 | |
some of the hedges down and build a road. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:32 | |
That might sway you towards a positive. Do you think? | 0:41:32 | 0:41:35 | |
-Yes. -Good. -A big possibility. | 0:41:35 | 0:41:37 | |
Good. I like it. Sue, let's get the hedge trimmers later. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:40 | |
-Yeah. -We've had a lovely time. | 0:41:40 | 0:41:42 | |
-All the very best. -Thank you, boys. | 0:41:42 | 0:41:43 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:41:43 | 0:41:45 | |
