In south London, Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer search for a flat for first-time buyers Adam and Nicole, and a townhouse for world-record-holding rower Kat. Adam and Nicole live with their respective parents and need help to get them living together under the same roof but their home patch has become a pricey part of town, so they've saved for their entire adult lives to get a large enough deposit. They're nervous about spending all that hard-saved cash, but Kirstie manages to find them some hard-to-resist homes. In 2019 Kat was diagnosed with cancer. After going through chemotherapy and being told she was in remission she wanted a new focus, so she joined an all-female trio for an Atlantic rowing challenge. They beat the previous world record by more than seven days, and Kat's next challenge is to put down roots with a townhouse in her beloved south London. Even with a budget of over a million pounds, Phil finds it tough to hit everything on her wishlist in the top spots where she wants to live but once they manage to focus her search on Greenwich, things start to fall into place. A house with potential tugs at Kat's heart.

Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer catch up with couples who they had to get onto the same page. In 2013, Carolyn and Paul wanted to quit renting and buy their own home in London. Carolyn had never bought before, but Paul had previously owned in Sheffield so was wary of London prices and more cautious than Carolyn. With £330k, they wanted a two-bed flat in or near Twickenham. Paul wanted kerb appeal - and Carolyn was adamant that she'd have outside space to dry her knickers in the sun! After seeing three properties with Kirstie, Carolyn and Paul decided they wanted to offer on a two-bed split-level flat in St Margaret's. After some tense negotiating, Kirstie managed to secure it eight grand under budget and the asking price. Now, Phil's back to visit Carolyn and Paul but at a house that's 130 miles north of their St Margaret's flat! And in 2014, Anna and Graeme had viewed over 50 properties in southwest Yorkshire but were being held back by Graeme's cautious approach. He'd previously lost money on a property and Anna was finding it difficult to help give him the confidence to take the leap once more. For their £250k budget, they wanted character and quirkiness in the countryside, with space to indulge their crafting hobbies and room for Lucky the dog to roam. Their search with Kirstie mirrored the search they'd already had; Anna felt passionate about a five-bedroom house which was a real renovation project, but Graeme couldn't quite find the confidence to commit.
