These newlyweds have been living in Hertfordshire for the last three years. But the frenetic life of London suburban commuters isn’t really for them. Andy is a planning manager and Rosie a local government officer and they’re fed up with their hectic routine of all work and no play. So fed up in fact, they’ve already lined up new jobs in Devon which will enable them to spend more time together.

Johnny and Lynsay Davies have been living it up in the capital for the last 10 years and they’ve had a ball. But two small boys later, the bright lights of London Town have lost their sparkle. So they're trading the home of high fashion for the home of high teas and heading 200-miles north to Harrogate, well known for its excellent schools and café culture high street.

Matthew and Louise met in the skies, Matthew as a long-haul commercial pilot and Louise as a flight attendant - truly the stuff of bed time novels.

Richard and Laurie Thompson have a young son and another baby on the way, so the clock is ticking as they try to fulfil their double property dream. They want a home in Felixstowe and a holiday getaway in southern France. The only unusual thing is that the couple have never actually visited either of the areas they're looking at!

John Stevenson and his fiancée Ingrid Weber have enjoyed living in rural Hertfordshire for the last four years. Ingrid worked as a translator and John as an executive for an airline at Luton airport. Life was good until John was head-hunted by the opposition. More bucks and more perks came with one proviso - relocating closer to the company HQ, not just outside Luton but a whole thousand miles away in Hungary.

Two years ago Sandy and Natasha came to Phil and Kirstie for help. The daily grind of running a business in Swindon was getting to them, and they wanted some space to breathe. They decided that the Devon coast was the place to get it - especially as it would allow them to spend time on their favourite activity: boogie boarding!

Jenny and Morgan Williams were fed up with their lives. Brighton was great and really appealed to this arty couple, but they didn't love their commutes to work in London. Jenny, in particular, wasn't able to spend enough time with their son. Over a bottle of Bordeaux, they came up with a bold plan: to spend weekends and holidays in France.

So they're selling their house, cashing in on the capital's property prices and shipping out of the hustle and bustle for a quieter life. Well, kind of! They want a family home on the Hertfordshire-Essex border and, in order to keep their foot (and hearts!) in both camps, they also want an investment pad in the East End of London. But they've got a long list of wants and don't-wants for the family home in prime commuterville on a budget of £600,000. This then leaves them with £220,000 for an investment property in the Olympic heartland of East London. The couple dream of perfection (don't they all?), but when perfection means a different thing to each of them can they ever settle on any property? If anyone can help them do it, Kirstie and Phil can.

Phil and Kirstie head off on a sunny sail over to the Isle of Wight to revisit Dean and Sam Brand, the young couple they helped to find a new home and business for, back in 2003.

Kirstie's desperate to get Howard and Joanne into this fab house, but they're not completely sold. Will her pitch persuade them it's the house they want?

A year ago Phil and Kirstie were on a double mission to help eco obsessives Sue and Neil start a new double life in Devon and Brighton. But has the green dream become a technicolour reality?

Paul and Andrew Foster-Williams are hunting for two properties, a home in Paris and a crash pad in London...
