Kirstie and Phil meet dance-mad newlyweds Keon and Zoe in West London, where not only is property expensive, but often sells in record time

Phil goes house hunting in the desirable suburbs of south Manchester with Craig and Becki, while Kirstie ploughs the rolling Cheshire countryside with Chris and Amy. Craig and Becki who have had buyers for their current home for eight months, but are completely at loggerheads over their priorities for their next property. Becki wants a ready-to-move-into family home, while accountant Craig is looking for a bargain and a project in the popular suburbs of south Manchester, where property stock is low and demand is high. Chris and Amy are looking to buy their first home together and want something semi-rural but close to motorways in pricey patches such as Knutsford, Lymm and Frodsham.

Kirstie and Phil help two sets of first-time buyers who have chosen to put down roots in south London. Phil is helping Niki and Rob, who have worked hard and saved hard for a deposit for their first home and, as a result, are searching with a generous budget of £450,000. They are looking for a home to suit them at the moment as young thirty-somethings, but that will also give them the space to have a family. Can Phil find a property which gives them the right balance? And Georgie and Louis love London - they work there, they go out there... the only thing is they don't live there. They've been together for five years and, during that time, they've been living with their respective parents in Surrey. Cue Kirstie to help this couple ditch the long commutes and find a place they can call their own. With their budget of £220,000, Georgie and Louis have missed out to faster buyers so, with speed the name of the game, Kirstie is in for a surprise as these first-time buyers strike in record-breaking time.

Phil helps James and Mairead find a family home on a £600k budget, while Kirstie takes first time buyers Laura and Andy under her wing. James and Mairead are new to the area and want the perfect family home in the perfect location. Laura and Andy have never viewed a single property before. And it soon becomes apparent that they want quite different things from their first home.

Kirstie helps neurosurgeon Naomi escape from a crowded house, while Phil faces a challenge with couple Mo and Jon, who want completely different things from a home. While Jon is looking for a one-bed flat in Birmingham's stylish Jewellery Quarter that will suit their young lifestyle, Mo dreams of a quieter life in Moseley with a spare room for friends and family and a little outdoor space for their two cats. Thirty-year-old neurosurgeon Naomi makes life decisions every day, but when it comes to finding a home, she's a little clueless. Kirstie guides her through the housing market of Moseley.

Kirstie helps sisters Gemma and Lucy find a home in costly Berkshire while Phil helps newlyweds Hannah and Hassan find a four bedder in Buckinghamshire. The average house prices in the Home Counties are around £800,000. Having viewed almost 40 properties without success, Hannah and Hassan are still chasing a four bedroom house in the pricey towns around High Wycombe. And the fact that Hassan wants space for a full size snooker table isn't helping. In Reading, Kirstie teams up with sisters Gemma and Lucy, who insist on two of everything: two bedrooms, two bathrooms and two parking spaces.

Kirstie catches up with vicar Ian and his wife Peta from east London. And Phil revisits Ben and Lucy in south London.

Kirstie and Phil look back at their property finding mission in the Granite City: Aberdeen. Both sets of house hunters relocated here for work, both were looking for family homes and both wanted to find them quickly. Helen and Brian were living in Essex awaiting the arrival of their first child. A year on, where do this family find themselves now? Kirsten and Scott lived in the coastal town of Kirkcaldy with their two children until a new job forced a relocation 100 miles north to Aberdeen. A year on, has Aberdeenshire become home?
