Location, Location, Location with Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer casting for 25th anniversary Channel 4 series - how to apply

‘Location, Location, Location’ is once again looking for house hunters in search of their dream pad. The primetime property programme, hosted by experts Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer, are now casting for the 25th anniversary series of the Channel 4 show.

The reality TV show which first aired on May 17, 2000 follows Allsopp and Spencer as they try to find the perfect home for a different set of buyers each week.

No matter where you are in the country, there's no better duo when it comes to finding and securing your perfect place. If you're a chain free buyer and want the chance to have them in your corner, this is your chance.

The programme is produced by IWC Media, formed in 2004, which makes a range of hit TV programmes out of its Glasgow and London offices. Driven by a passion for great ideas, vivid storytelling, along with Location, Location, Location, their shows also include Scotland’s Home of the Year, The Big Scottish Book Club, Britain’s Most Historic Towns.

The show has at times received criticism for a perceived focus on properties of significantly higher value than the UK average. One episode, that aired in 2019 featuring homes for sale in and around Swindon and Newbury, attracted particular ire from viewers who took to social media to air accusations the show was ‘out of touch’.

The episode showed expectant parents Alistair and Candice who had a budget of £500,000 after a three-bedroom house in Wiltshire and young couple James and Hayley who had £750,000 to splash out on a three/four bedroom home.

Another episode the same year focussed on vets Sam and Andy, house hunting in the West Midlands. With a budget of £800,000 for a five-bedroom house, viewers felt the couple were being overly picky, turning down one option as it didn't have enough room for a playpen.
