Series 6: 8. Suffolk and Shropshire
Jules Hudson reacquaints himself with a couple who, back in 2016, were seeking a new life in Shropshire. Whilst they now live in their perfect countryside property, Jules is surprised that it took them nearly five years to find it - in a different county. He also drops in on one of his former buyers from 2020 who found a dream country home, this time in Suffolk, where he discovers that fairytale (and waggy tail) endings really do come true.
