Escape to the Country
Why do folks go on Escape to the Country with no intention of buying anything, then at the end, the presenter always says, "well I hope we have been a help, and let us know how you get on", the bloody programme don't need to know how they got on WE DO!.Also on "Tipping Point", does anyone else think it's comical when over about eight counters fall, it's replayed in slow motion.

Re: Escape to the Country
You cynical lotI love ETTC especially when it is the ever so slightly sarcastic Alastair Appleton or the really sweet Jonnie Irwin and I don't give a dam if the people buy the property or not. I have had 45 mins of escapism looking at some lovely houses I can dream of but could never afford unless I win the premium bond then I might be be on there myself
