Escape to the Chateau

Such a great, sweet programme. Easy watching and full of surprises.

Absolutely amazing!! Love every single episode and watching the chateau become even more beautiful.

I absolutely love this programme, not just for the inspiration it gives me while suffering with severe depression which drains the life out of me, but also for the banter, love, frivolity, passion and laughs that the family has. I think its just wonderful to see as they carry on fulfilling their dream in France. I would recommend this programme to everyone who loves some lighthearted relief :)

One of the best series I've seen this year. I quite enjoyed every episode of the too short seasons. Harmless enough entertainment. Wish the production company wouldn't have those 'coming up' spoilers shown throughout the show. A common trait now on most modern reality shows that takes away the surprise element.

Good to see some people enjoying their lives through the effort of hard work, creativity and that 'get up and go' that some viewers wish they had more of. My get up and go has got up and gone ages ago. Wish it would come back. Thing is when you've not got the most enjoyable life in the world it can pick you up to see others enjoying theirs. That's what you can get from this show.

Edit: Update. Just seen Series 5, more episodes per season, great. I enjoyed this one a bit more with the better format of no 'coming ups' during the show other than the acceptable first minute recap and the last minute what's on next week. More suspense and surprise, it made the show flow a whole lot better, worth another 1/2 a star, so now its 9.5 stars. You just can't get enough of the Strawbridge family can you.

The most stunning couple ever . Angel is so talented , Dick a smart hard working man . Love this series .
