As Escape To The County made its comeback after a brief hiatus for the Olympics, presenter Nicki Chapman was moved to tears by 'the best garden room she'd ever seen'. In the episode, an emotional Nicki confessed her 'jealousy' over the 'best room she's ever seen' on the programme, which has been on air for more than two decades. The episode featured couple Andra and Dan, who were residing in Manchester at the time but were looking to relocate to the Cheshire countryside with their young daughter.
The duo were seeking a four-bedroom, detached family home with a large, private garden. Nicki showed them a variety of enticing properties, including one that brought them to tears. “Oh my god!” Andra could be heard saying with weepy eyes, as Nicki showed the couple an enormous private garden, tucked away at the rear of the mystery house property, which featured an outdoor kitchen and a private patch of woodland.
Nicki then exclaimed Andra was also making her emotional as she held back her own tears. “You’re making me go, hang on a minute, this isn’t in the script!” Nicki laughed while wiping away her tears. The star then took to Instagram to share the clip from the episode as she admitted she was ‘well jel’ of ‘the best garden room she’s ever seen’.
“After a few weeks off @escape_country is back. Brand new episode with me today, Nicki began in the caption. We have a wonderful selection of properties for a young couple, currently living in Manchester, who are hoping to move to the Cheshire countryside with their young daughter.
In this episode we discovered the best garden room I’ve ever seen. Well Jel." The episode, which aired earlier this week was a hit with fans, as they took to the comments to praise the show.
“This was a really good episode; fab properties and a lovely couple. Just wish we knew whether they bought the mystery house,” penned one. Another wrote: “Wonderful show full emotion and course our superb presenter as calm as always Nicki Chapman,” while a third said: “I enjoyed the Olympics but I couldn’t wait for Escape to the country to return.
Beautiful houses on today’s episode, I’d like all of them please.” A fourth, who could relate to the tears wrote: “Ooooo can't wait to see this one. May be tears in our house too as we want countryside views when we make the leap of faith!”.
