A Place in the Sun viewers have blasted a couple for “wasting time” on the show.
Angry fans also accused them of using the Channel 4 show for a free holiday. Andy, a firefighter, and Elina, who works in the water industry, had always dreamed of moving to Spain permanently. However, they changed their mind after their grandchild was born.
The couple decided to buy a holiday home instead for the whole family to make happy memories together. Armed with a budget of £85,000, the couple were shown around different properties in Costa Almeria, Spain by expert Jean Johansson.

Sadly, none of the first four homes seemed to be just right for Andy and Elina. However, there was some hope that the couple had a contender when they were shown the final apartment, near the beach.
Andy really liked it, but Elina wasn’t so sure. But when they sat down with Jean at the end of the episode to talk about the homes they’d seen fans were left disappointed.
Jean said: “It’s such a big move, and it’s been a challenging search, but I think we got there in the end with that last property.”
“I mean, you just looked smitten with the view,” she said to Andy. He replied excitedly, “I love the view, it was stunning.”
Elina agreed, saying: “I agree the view is lovely, the position is what we asked for, and the solariums better than I thought, bearing in mind I wanted ground floor, with a garden.”
The presented then asked the couple for their decision. To which, Andy said: “On this occasion, I don’t think we are going to make an offer.”
His response left viewers fuming as they took to X (Twitter) accusing the couple of “wasting time”. One viewer wrote: “Now upping budget … wasted my time watching .. I want a time refund! #aplaceinthesun.”
Another added: “Up your budget. Nice crafty holiday, though, and you got on the telly.” A third added: “Bet Jean is glad that one’s over. What a nightmare couple, her especially #aplaceinthesun.”
Meanwhile, a fourth commented: “Knew it f****** time wasters wanted a freebie #aplaceinthesun.” A fifth said: “Not making an offer? I’m shocked. Nice free holiday, though. Timewasters. #aplaceinthesun.”
