Series 5: 9. Norfolk
Jonnie Irwin makes his way to the Norfolk countryside for a reunion with past house-hunters who are now making the most of their new rural settings. Jonnie calls in on a dynamic young couple whose Escape property hunt he led in 2017 and finds that they’ve grown their family as well as a tasty new business. He then meets up with house-hunters from 2018 who have finally managed to take things down a gear and are enjoying the simple life surrounded by East Anglian scenery.
