Broadcasters in the UK have decided to ditch the lifestyle and property shows in favour of thrifty money saving shows, so much so that the BBC have announced it’s making three new property shows that discuss the collapse in the property market and axing of agents in favour of self selling property without an estate agent. I believe the three shows will be screened sometime commencing in October. Shows like Location, location, location on Channel 4 will be revamped to reflect the current difficulty of getting a mortgage.
