Cool, more gits for KIRSTIE (thank you, naily!) and Phil to rip apart!

Did Art graduate from the Jeffrey Archer Charm School?

i believe so.

Its a massive house.... for just the two of them. Jeez.

Like I said, never count your chickens before they hatch!

I love this programme - total fantasy!

Phil and Kirsty are fab. Sooooo camp and lovely

Nearly all the house-hunters are annoying twats with too much money. And yes I watch the daytime repeats when I can!

Its been on the market over a year.... wonder why

i like hte climber couple. but then again, i like climbers .

she's pretty.

I know the expensive house the doctors bought, just round the corner from my mother's. It's lovely; Queen Anne with bags of land. However, the previous owners were clearly a few slices short of the full loaf as it was originally on at £1m...

Downside is it's in Dronfield and the most expensive house for miles around.

Nooooooo! Missed it! Does anyone know if it's repeated?

It was more like a hotel than a house though. I never thought I'd say it but it's probably a bit too big.
where I live £750,000 would buy you a very ordinary sized three-bed Victorian house. I need to move up north.

I didn't like the house the doctors bought, either.

Too big.

And not enough bathrooms.

It's a gorgeous house. Every time I go past it, I dream... but then I wake up and realise I do not want to live in Dronfield.

When I dream my dream house, it's nothing like that.

Horses for courses.

But even if I had a million to spend, it wouldn't be that.

Edam - the house the doctors currently lived in was Nether Edge too. NE had changed loads!

I could have found them both much better hourses for their cash, I am sure. Neither in the best areas. In rush hour it would take longer than 20 minutes to get from Dronfield (big house) to the hospitals. And why they bothered with Matlock I have no idea - miles and miles away!!!

expatinscotland - you are right. If it was a hot area it would have been snapped up and not left unlived in for 10 years. Norton is not really a hot area IMO. It's okay, but not hot IYSWIM.

The climber lady was beautiful. Indeed, very lovely skin.

Much more laid back, too.

Matlock to Sheffield would not be 45 mins in rush hour either.

I do over an hour now, the opposite direction to Matlock, and manage it fine. Not great but as PT managable. But I would never consider moving as far away as Matlock from Sheffield, not for that commute. Wrong side of Sheffield to have to come in on in rush hour definitely.

I agree, it's fine for PT, but I did it day in/day out and it sucked.

It must have done, Hula, when I were a lass, NE was v. working class, with a high proportion of newly-arrived very poor Pakistani families and also a lot of drug addicts. Made for an uneasy mix. Lovely houses, though, had obviously been a desirable place once.

at idea that Dronfield is 20 minutes from Sheffield, is that really what K&P claimed?

Which hospitals do they work for?

Whichever ones they are, they either pay absolute sheds full of money, or those two were born to it.

He was a GP half way between sheffield and where they are now. I think she was a consultant psychiatrist at the main sheffield hospital.

New GP contract explains how they had the budget they had

Didn't say. She was a consultant and he was a GP wasn't he? Even if most central Dronfield still further away than 20 minutes like they claimed!

NE has a lot of newer and updated properties now edam. The old hospital is now a new housing complex, like a gated estate really with own gym and pool. Has retained a lot of old buildings for the town houses and apartments, and then added other larger houses in same style.

Still a mixed bag of residents but a more clear divide TBH. Worst part is the schools round there. Not a good catchment for most of NE, esp secondary IIRR. If DD was in state school I wouldn't consider it, but we did look at the old hospital site. The show town house was fantastic!

It'll reshow on More4.

@ drs' house. Would cost 1.25m minimum down here and all that land ...

Lizs - in Sheffield itself it would be much dearer.
