Series 1123, episode 0

He's thinking mini breaks, she's thinking La Dolce Vita! Today's house hunters dilemma is between West Yorkshire and Umbria in Italy. Speech therapist Val Searle from Peterborough is looking for an investment second home with her fiancé Colin. She wants to spend £150K buying something that will appeal to her three boys as a holiday destination, and she is also after a spot where she can get away during her annual three months holiday from the school where she works. Colin's mind is in Yorkshire, but Val's heart lies in Italy. On the financial front, get ready to be surprised. If you think there's nowhere to buy in the UK because of the soaring property prices, think again. There is a completely refurbished old post office with magnificent river views going for less than £140K in store for the couple, and it's ready to move into. But is this enough to entice Val away from a two-bedroom house with a medieval feel in the idyllic Italian countryside?
