Surely I am not the only person who watches the ABC's Escape from the City partly for the perverse enjoyment of finding out at the end that, yet again, the couple that seemed so enthusiastic about moving to the area they were shown, and wildly impressed by at least one of the homes they inspected, nonetheless found a reason to not go live in there?
It's like the makers of the show may as well send back that box of champagne that's gathering dust in the back of the production office for when a couple actually buys one of the shows' houses (or even moves into the area.) I'm not sure it has ever happened in the history of the show.
(That said, in reference to last night's episode - boy, houses at Mission Beach in Far North Queensland seem good value. But what about the 1980's place you had to reach by boat on what looked like a crocodile infested river? It was pretty hilariously inconvenient.)
