Buying London

Daniel Daggers does not need to do a reality show. He is already successful and his reputation is undeniable. Was this a good business decision? Not sure it's good publicity either. It's too much Hollywood style. Nothing like the Parisian Agency family which seems more real to me. The listings are gorgeous though and it makes you dream about living in London and around. That's probably the only thing worth watching. The drama on the other hand is totally unnecessary. It often looks very fake how these agents deal with each other. They are probably looking for an acting job in a soap opera next.

This show is trying too damn hard to copy the drama of Selling Sunset, but it just comes across as completely unnatural and ridiculous. Americans really are better at acting convincingly like total idiots, although Selling Sunset takes things too far sometimes as well. Obviously in the British version they found it very hard to find stuff to disagree on because the clearly fake squabbles are enormously childish and petty. Still I like to watch it for the amazing properties and beautiful clothes and Buying London doesn't disappoint in that respect. That's why I think 4 stars is more than reasonable.

A bunch of wannabe celebrities who are thrown into the world of f-list showbiz.

There is no arguing that the houses are absolutely stunning & The owner of the company Daniel is a success, but there is absolutely no reason for him to start a show like this.

If I was a prospective high net worth customer I'd now avoid the company like a plague.

First of all; who else has seen Rasa on Selling Super Houses? She was absolutely hopeless on that and there is no mention that she got her break on that programme first.

The cast are no where near as good looking as the Selling Sunset crowd. Netflix have had a shocker with this one and I hope it doesn't go on for another season.

I turned off after the second episode and want to block it from my memory.

What a waste of time.

You can clearly tell the cast were asked to create fake drama to make it compete with Selling Sunset. No one in real life would get upset over these "issues" and act like this professionally here. It got so bad that I found myself fast forwarding to the viewings, which unfortunately were not even that great! The caliber of property in comparison to the channel 4 shows, such as most expensive houses, were simply just not there, extremely dated interiors and nothing "wow" about them.

Some of the "viewings" were also clearly staged properties not on the market, for example the "open house" apartment... it was empty, with the cast positioned in the background in one scene but no one else! Open houses are not even a concept here in the uk... honestly this show makes a mockery of UK agents. This should be burned from anyone's memory.

The women are gorgeous and placed in catty scenarios to dramatize London real estate. I thought I'd watch the variety of high-end real estate and their prices. The music added to each scene as in between the scenes was extremely annoying. The constant quick blinking and noise added of the camera to get closer to the next scene was also extremely irritating. Don't waste your time.

Although the real estate staff had to concede to the show's requirement to add drama and the degradation of their own character. It's too bad they had to add the unnecessary music and the camera clicking. I think the show would have been tolerable to just watch a show about London's high-end real estate.
