Series 26: 30. Shropshire
In Shropshire, Alistair Appleton helps newlyweds from suburban Essex hunt for a historic, traditional hideaway with heaps of character, which they find in a gem of a home that dates back to the 14th century. Away from the property shopping, Alistair swaps house keys for a paintbrush as he joins a local artist for a spot of poultry painting... proof, if proof were needed, that rural life really can ruffle your feathers.
