Presenter's constant laughter Apart from showing inappropriate properties, usually over the top of the available budget, the presenter never stops laughing and it sounds so false Breen2:59pm Mon 13 May

Want that Photo I adore the little house in the photo that flashes by as the program stats. It is also mounted on back (top) of the laptop.
Is there a way to download a copy.?It would look nice in a picture frame. Y-1810:46am Fri 28 Dec
Need help with finding an episode! Hello, I'm wondering if any of you avid and knowledgable viewers could help me? I just caught the end of an episode the other week and since then I've been searching for it online! As I only got the last part, I don't know much of the story and can't even remember the presenter! :/ I do remember the family, they were a lovely, young married Asian couple and the last house they viewed was an amazing huge Georgian property, my favourite ever! If anyone remembers any more about this episode, or even the series number etc, it would be very, very much appreciated! I want to see that house again!
Many thanks :) Westie1:02pm Thu 29 Nov
What Happens After It would be good to go back to some of the people who buy a house after Escape to the Country, to see if they are still happy with their purchase etc. Neecy1:46pm Mon 29 Oct
Gorgeous Eye Popping Properties As a Canadian viewer I'm amazed at the beautiful renos and amazing properties, makes me want to live there. But oh,the prices, even if currency was at par !!
How do people afford them ? Canuckian5:40pm Fri 19 Oct

What's the point No one ever buys anything. Plus why try to buy a house and think that it's no good if you can't fit your original furniture in it for heavens sake? Surely they can change some of their furniture.
Alistair is the best with his "New Age" bracelets and gorgeous face. Wish he was straight, I enjoy watching him even more. Bez1:04pm Fri 19 Oct
repeats Why keep showing repeats when there are newly filmed episodes that haven't been screened. Old episodes are not relevent to todays prices. Nic8:25pm Thu 18 Oct
What a complete farce The wealthy cash buyers wanted to buy something in the country, as you do. They then made stupid excuses not to buy anything then the footnote was they were now looking for something in the city. Now there's a surprise! Programme makers do not take us viewers for fools. doubletake1:27pm Wed 5 Sep
a must-see for masochists...... ....who want to dwell on how skint they are and marvel at the egotistical twerps who want to "upgrade" what is already a lovely room and "stamp their personality on it".....hmmmm. g11:54am Wed 5 Sep
Quit complaining This show is what it is, a fun romp in the country. I enjoy Jules and the rest. I would actually like to see someone with a higher budget once of about six million pounds. That would be a kick. Wifnoe12:36am Thu 30 Aug
Wrong Title This programme should be called "Pointless" not the other. watched only by the people in it & their families!
An absolute waste of tax-payers money as no-one I know could afford such places. Anyway, there must be dozens of progs. like this on EVERY channel.... BigK5:42pm Thu 16 Aug
When can we expect a print time show? Why are we back to repeats!! And EVEN then ETTC is taken off to make room for every other topic under the sun. Stop messing with this show. Toosie7:56pm Fri 3 Aug
Denise makes us cringe We love this show but Denise really makes us cringe. With legs akimbo, awful boots and dress sense, forever touching poor potential buyers - please take her off and find someone new two of a kind10:21pm Sun 29 Jul
Money Why are we still paying for people to look for a new house. At the end of most of the shows I have watched I think the % who bought was less than 1%. Also why do we not have people who are looking for AFFORABLE Houses whatever that is. brockle1:03pm Wed 25 Jul
ALISSTAIR Mmmm yes please. i agree with you Lindy sarah9:37am Sun 8 Jul

Music I know Matt Coldrick wrote the music to the TV show, but is it available to buy anywhere, please? keithobro4:46pm Sun 24 Jun
on the telly I don't believe for one moment these people are up to buy they just want to be on the telly. There is always "kitchen too small", "not enough room for the horses" - get real! doubletake4:56pm Wed 20 Jun
where's Melissa Porter I 'm sorry but I'm pretty sure I have watch episodes of this programme with Melissa Porter as one of my faourites is a couple moving from Clapham to Kent and I love the house they bought with Melissa presenting the programme. So where are he episodes rarely seen on tv? cheLsea29:56am Thu 31 May

alisterappleton still the best looking guy on tv . Certainly the best presenter on ETTC. yorkie1:14pm Thu 10 May
Music Played I would really like to know of one specific piece of music played in ETTC. I only know that it's a piano piece of four notes before they go to the next shot. MaiaWolf10:39am Mon 30 Apr

Where's it gone ? Back to BBC2, of course ! It vanishes from BBC1 as Episode 50 (of 75) from the current series 12 - a week ago - and re-appears today with edited down repeats of series 9 on BBC 2.... I rest my case - it's being used as a filler!
Shame on you Beeb. Fan 10:13am Mon 5 Mar
Where's it gone? ... and so it vanishes (yet again) from the BBC schedules part way through the series!
Why does the Beeb treat Escape like some sort of filler?

Programme for Rich People! You programme seem to feature people who have plenty of money to spend. How aboutcoming back into the real world and featuring some properties which are under £200,000! Colliedor2:37pm Wed 8 Feb
denise and jules Denise and Jules are the best hosts of this programme. They are both truly professional presenters and Jules is gorgeous too. Lovely personalities nicky1:26pm Thu 15 Dec
Denise is fab! I love Denise: she's so cheerful, bubbly, pretty - and those gorgeous dumples!!! Pat4:27pm Sat 12 Nov
Only for the Rich It would be nice to see them tackle a few low budgets i.e. under 200,000.
Denise is atrocious. Lafrowda3:46pm Tue 8 Nov
Finally a new series! At long last fresh episodes!Yippeeee. Was totally unprepared for them...they were not listed as a "new". Toosie7:28pm Tue 13 Sep
property obsession With programmes such as this little wonderb that there are no houses for the people who actually work and need to live in the countryside. Many continue to commute back and forth and generally contribute little to village life. An absolutely awful programme. Haggis10:37am Fri 26 Aug
Lighting Why do they say how light each room is when all lights are illumanated yo yo2:54pm Thu 25 Aug
alistair & jules Alistair & jules are the best & both are lovely love the programme. titch3:23pm Fri 19 Aug
alistair no 1! Alistair Appleton alliteratively: ace,angelic attractive, affable, adorable,...I could go on!
I agree it would be great to find out more about those taking part in ETTC who bought properties. Perhaps a one off at the end of each series instead of the ones already shown "Best barn conversions" etc. anya6:26pm Tue 16 Aug
Denise Denise is my favourite presenter and so so beautiful! She presents well and has real charisma! The boots do it for me... And I love her dresses! I'd clean those boots for her any day and escape to the country with her! Xcxccvc12:19pm Sun 7 Aug
