Relocation, Relocation - Season 5 Episode 7 Crawley & Limousin
Jenny and Morgan Williams were fed up with their lives. Brighton was great and really appealed to this arty couple, but they didn't love their commutes to work in London. Jenny, in particular, wasn't able to spend enough time with their son. Over a bottle of Bordeaux, they came up with a bold plan: to spend weekends and holidays in France. They also wanted a crash pad in Crawley so they could not only commute to work, but be near their night-school, where they were retraining - Jenny as a plumber and Morgan as an electrician - to take their love of house renovation to the next level. Their long-term plan was to quit work for good and start their own businesses in France… although they don't speak French! With a budget of £180,000 in the UK and just £50,000 in the Limousin region of France, Kirstie and Phil had a huge challenge. The story had more ups and downs than the stock market, but two years on, Morgan and Jenny have eventually found a home of their dreams. But how has it all panned out? Have they learned any of the lingo? And did Phil really get that tan naturally?
