Watched this program on TV last night, and was as usual really annoyed by the little postscript at the end.

In case you haven't seen it, the presenters are tasked every week with finding a home for someone. Sometimes the requirements are a bit bizarre and arbitrary. So we spend 30 minutes seeing three properties, and even going through the bidding process with a vendor for one. Then just as the credits are about to roll, a voice-over tells us that the couple looking for a house decided not to bother in the end.

Can anyone tell me what is the point of this program? I don't think that I've ever seen anyone actually buy a house that has been found for them. It's a complete waste of time for everyone involved, and especially for the vendors and estate agents.

Please stop me someone from ever watching it again!

The most annoying part, though, was where the buyers made such a cheeky bid, and then for the sake of 3K - just over 1% of the asking price - were prepared to lose the house, after all the work that the property finders did.

This is the only 'reality' program I watch, mostly because it allows me to nosey into other people's homes, I guess.
