Escape to the Country Audience Reviews

Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Acensbart Excellent but underrated film
Marsha Richards As at November 28, 2010. Channel 7 (2) airs Escape To The Country twice per week.8.30pm Friday night, and 8.30pm Sunday night.Enjoy the breathtaking countryside twice as often now! One of the all time great English lifestyle shows, Escape To The Country allows to viewer to relax and unwind whilst being transported to tiny villages, to remote Welsh landscapes, to dramatic coastal retreats....all at the end of your remote control.Potential tree changers (PTC), and sea changers (PSC)enlist the help of the host to seek their ideal property.In general, however, potential is more akin to tyre kicking.No matter! It is not really the PTC's and PSC's that we are interested in....it is the quintessential English garden, or the 500 year old cottage, or the thought of finding the mythical "Dibley" or "Studley Constable" that draws the viewer.
john-575 Out here in Oz, Escape to the Country is our favourite end of week show, screening @ 8.30pm. My favourite host is Catherine Gee. Once you adjust to a very small percentage of the people on the show actually buying anything it's fine. Generally I watch and tape this as for some strange reason it doesn't look like DVDs are available. Generally have a British atlas next to the TV so pinpoint where they are looking.Some episodes are better than others. It all comes down mainly to the type of houses and areas the people are looking to move to. That's about 80% of the appeal, 20% the contestants themselves. Whether or not it's because most of the people are yet to sell, the buy rate feels like about 5%.I can't believe some of the properties these people pass over.After Escape there's another guilty pleasure, another English show "60 minute makeover" Hosted by Claire Sweeney whose very easy on the eye, warm and charming the challenge is to redecorate a number of rooms in a house in 60 minutes. Generally a team of about 30 contractors descend onto a house under the guidance of a weekly designer, many of whom reappear throughout the series.Quite like some of the designers and some of the outcomes (done in two thirty minute bursts with a tea break in between) are stunning.
