Location, Location, Location - Series 42 (2024)

Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer meet two couples taking advantage of a First-Time Buyer scheme to help them onto the property ladder but their £450,000 budgets won't take them very far in Essex. Kirstie's with locals Sarah and Charlie who need a home to bring them together after five years of living with their respective parents. They've started to lose their nerve after eight months of unsuccessful house-hunting and it quickly becomes clear that their best chance of success is to take on a project. Phil's couple Toby and Simone have high expectations of what their home should be after renting in London, but their budget doesn't match up to the house, or postcode, they're accustomed to.

In Belfast, Jennifer's hit a wall trying to balance her budget and wish list. In County Down, can Tony and Val end their Goldilocks search and find somewhere that's just right?

In Cambridgeshire, Kirstie helps Ali and Nick sniff out their first home together in Stilton. And Phil hopes to get Hannah and Hugo over the threshold of their first marital home.

Phil Spencer meets new parents Dom and Arta who are looking to get back into the housing market after selling their first flat and moving into a rental but Liverpool-native Dom is shocked by how little their budget of £1million will buy them. First-time buyers Beth and Rory are facing a no-fault eviction and turn to Kirstie Allsopp for help finding their first home but a nasty fall puts their search on hold.

We catch up with Zoe and Jason in Edinburgh, whose £1m couldn't even get them their own front door! And we're back with Ahmad and Lois at their unrecognisable abode in Sheffield.

We catch up with Georgie and Louis in London. Are they still in the flat Kirstie secured for them? And have Lauren and Noel injected character into their Northumberland new build?
