A Place in the Sun had a very bizarre twist when a property-hunting couple realised they didn’t actually like Spain enough to move there.
In Friday’s episode of the Channel 4 show (May 21) Donna and Terry were being shown around Manilva on the Costa del Sol by Laura Hamilton.
They told her they had never actually visited the area – a favourite among British ex-pats – but were keen to look at what they could buy with £135,000.
Laura found five properties to try and wow them but none of the options managed to tempt both Donna and her partner Terry, who was adamant he wanted a house rather than an apartment.
The presenter noted Terry seemed like he would be “hard to impress”, and she was right.
Commenting on the first property, a two-bedroom apartment in La Duquesa on the market for £140,625, Terry said the “whole place would need redecorating”.
He added: “I didn’t particularly like the balcony there, it just needs more outside space basically.”
Terry did like property number four, a two-bed townhouse in Hacienda Guadalupe valued at £133,923, but Donna said she didn’t get the right “feeling” from it.
At the end of the show, they confessed to Laura they couldn’t simply agree on what they liked and planned to leave without making an offer.
“Don’t wait too long, because everything is going to be unaffordable before you know it,” she warned them.
Laura then gave an update in the voiceover and revealed the couple had realised they didn’t actually like Spain that much.

She said: “After spending a bit more time in the area, they later decided that Spain wasn’t the place for them and have decided to continue house-hunting in Turkey.”
A Place in the Sun viewers were staggered at the revelation and many blasted the couple on Twitter.
One commented: “‘Decided Spain wasn’t for them,’ Give me strength FFS.”
A second said: “Hahaha they’re looking in Turkey instead. Absolute messers.”
“FFS!! Let Turkey put up with them!” tweeted another irate viewer.
A fourth grumbled: “Don’t know what country they want never mind house.”
