Takie and Amy are adorable. They were very Level headed and a pleasure to see the great home they ended up with. I hope now that we are 13 years out from the update that they are doing well and still so happy. Great buyers.
Not quite, but we did get an update in 2012. They were living in the same flat and they had a child! :)
@@Kevin-sm8pn Thank you!!! So happy to hear that.
Amy Beeson and Taki have two daughters now.. their eldest (Ava) is 12 years old! How time flies.. lovely couple ❤
@@pimpozza Oh thank you so happy to read that but it doesn't surprise me. Yes such a lovely sweet couple. Have a lovely day.
Amy and Tacky are such a joyful couple. It's a delight to know they did so well for themselves with that lovely property. Fun episode :)
Takie and Amy are so full of joy. I am so happy for them, and it was really uplifting to watch them.
It’s all about expectations and being excited about what you have, not about want.
How time flies!! Amy Beeson and Taki have two daughters now.. their eldest (Ava) is 12 years old! ❤
I am very happy for both couples, but as an American, I am embarrassed.
She is on the adventure of a lifetime.
She has an adorable young man [with a job] that clearly loves her. And, the U.K. is a beautiful country. I watch, and love "Escape to the Country." Very fortunate!
Priorities girl!
I have owned about 9 homes in America. We buy in a trac then fix it up the move to the next trac development etc etc. they were big with big yards n the homes were boring. I would have loved being someplace with character. It was like holding the sticks up on the street blow n you had another trac home. I would love to move to the UK. 😮
Wow. Alissa definitely had champagne taste with a beer budget.
So very interesting when you go back to revisit the couple Phil!
As an American, I find it so cringey when the American of the couple wants to replicate their USA real estate expectations rather than embrace the way of life in the country they are in. Not ALL of us are like that!!!!!
You mean not all of us are entitled, consumer driven, unrealistic, self possessed snobs?
Agreed. As a fellow American this was sooooo embarrassing to watch. That’s like me rolling up to a 3 story brownstone in Manhattan and throwing a fit because it’s $5 million… because I could afford to buy an entire town in America’s Deep South for the same price😂
I want the washing machine in its own room. Or the bathroom. But not in the kitchen.
I mean, did you watch the whole thing? She did adjust her expectations in the end.
@@mattmacdougall6005 sorry Matt, we still hate her
Fabulous. I needed Phil and Kirstys humour and the laugh. Long may LLL continue.
I was so glad they didn't get the shared ownership flat. They are a rip off and you never really get to own it, unless you want to be mortgaged for 50 years.Such a great couple and they ended up wit a home of real class and with a garden to. Amazing!
Amy is such an incredible lady. If everyone had her attitude, the world would be a better place.
Congratulations to Takie and Amy! Beautiful place in an excellent location.
The two couples were so different in personalities. Amy and Taki are all smiles, and joy just radiates from them. The other couple, much more subdued, and even at the end the American didn't look that happy. I wish them all the best. Thanks for the upload.
The American Lady wants the living and garden space of Balmoral Castle at a fish and chips price...
What. A princess that American is!
Love the revisits ❤
Delighted for both couples with second couple proving the more savvy. Difficult time to buy, so always nice to know noone made a loss.
New Jersey 2022.. for 250,000you could buy a beautiful card board box that you can move.😄
It depends on which part of New Jersey. You get more bang for your buck if you're closer to Pennsylvania than NYC.
NJ is not a sweet smelling rose.
I'm happy that everyone is happy!
A lesson in perseverance. Despite disappointments, these couples kept looking - and eventually, got something they are pleased to call "home".
I love a happy ending.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE when you do a follow up likE this....more pleASE?
2:00 My favourite freckly couple buyers!
I can only imagine what the flat in Kensington is worth today in 2023.
This American girl should find her house in the US, not in the UK. I think you need to tell your boyfriend to raise your budget to a million, so you can find your dream house. I'm really tired of seeing this kind of attitude, poor Phil you are always dealing with this kind of people.
I see from the comments that I'm not the only one who found Alissa fingernails-on-the-blackboard annoying. I'm Canadian, which is close enough to the US to know exactly what it was that she considered suitable, because we have some of these houses too: a huge modern suburban cookie-cutter house without a scintilla of character.
Except the UK is not the US. Houses are smaller there. What she had in mind would cost way, way more than the budget she and her husband could spend. She came across as such a spoiled princess.
I'm glad she seems to have realized she won't die from residing in a house smaller than 400 square metres.
I think they did well with what they had. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💞💚🥰🤗
Is it wishful thinking to want to see the updated version of both the couples in year 2022 and our favourites : -
Kirstie & Phil ( names in alphabetical order)? 😬
Yes, because it seems like everyone wants a 2022 update on every single couple who has ever appeared on Location, Location, Location, and that's simply not possible. Although, they did do a 2012 update on Takie and Amy.
@@Kevin-sm8pn Thank you Kevin
Please Educate yourself on another Country's Properties before Setting Out. No Need to Go In Ignorant, and Kirsty is Right on!
Isn't it great to see how things turned out! XXX
I just wonder what that flat would bring in the wild UK market today - imagine it’d be staggering.
It all depends on where one is buying. Texas and rural America would give her what she requires for her her money. LA, NY, DC would be out of her budget. NJ can also be expensive and she would not get 2 acres of land for that money.
Kirstie: "You could always commit harikari"
Knowing how picky the American is, she'd tell him, he's doing it wrong. Poor Phil!
Brilliant!!!!
The closest she's going to get to an American house is to go to a renovation of a large building like a barn or a warehouse, modern minimalist, and out in a semi-rural location.
(Since Windsor Castle is already taken)
Why would you buy a house that is five years of your combined income with payments that are 50% of your monthly income?
They are going to be house rich and cash poor for the foreseeable future and what happens if one of them becomes unable to work?
The American girl was annoying BUT she did have a point about that new build. Why in 2007 would a developer in the UK build a brand spanking new house in that old 1800s, closed off, tiny rooms style?? It makes no sense. I can understand her anger. The UK architects and developers were basically wasting supplies. Imagine building extra walls when the style everyone is asking for is OPEN floor plans. It's a waste of timber, buyers are just gonna knock the walls down to build equity. Upstairs laundry rooms were standard for new builds in 2004, so why is england still putting washers in the kitchen?? Who keeps tide pods next to their sugar bowl? Who tosses dirty panties in front of the pots and pans cabinet? Ew
I ended up cringing every time Takie and Amy said, 'definitely'.
As an American I would just like to say I’m sorry, and we aren’t all like that.
She should have stayed in America. I’m from Canada and I know America as well, and the houses are not all huge. She has to get her mindset together.
She really is borderline offensive. And when she says theUS she means Florida or Alabama ! Put her in Manhattan, San Francisco or LA , and see what 330,000 $ buy you ! Whereas they are looking in one of the most expensive places in England
the American should have stayed in NJ, she could've gotten a post-war piece of crap for $475000 and paid massive property taxes. I'm from NJ and would move to the UK in a heartbeat!
Americans have townhouses, Kirstie. That was really rude. And, I’m sorry, but Phil was really rude as well. I recognize the sarcastic way the British talk to and about Americans. I’ve been married to a Brit for 33 yrs and have spent a lot of time in England , especially London where he’s from. Ik she was difficult, but not more than a lot of British people on the show. She had her moments, but they shouldn’t have been so rude.
And Kristie...
Kirstie
I enjoy the show, but way to too many commercials. I'm planning to unsubscribe. I may check back in a month or two to see if you restricted a commercial every 4 or 5 minutes. Totally takes away from the relaxation of enjoying the show. Continuity is scrambled and it makes it where I'm going to choose any other channel instead of this one in the future.
Premium YT, you won't regret it.
I remember watching this at the time, and being so annoyed with Alyssa..... ofc you can get a billion sq foot house in America the country is MASSIVE the whole of England fits into florida ffs
She wouldn't get a huge house for that price in all places in her country. New york?
Why is she trying to speak with an English accent?
Probably because she's been living there for a while and it starts to creep in. Doesn't sound like it's intentional.
@@TheM750 disagree
@@lynnbateson Ok. lol.
@@TheM750 I agree with you. I would probably do the same without it being my intention.
There was that one woman in Hastings who sounded like she had an American accent but with a British twang. I feel like compared to that accent, Alyssa's accent was a lot more subtle and not intentional. But I don't know what nationality the other woman was because it was never mentioned in the episode but she did not sound 100% British to me.
Happy ever after, taki needs a medal for living with that Amy
You have a problem with Amy? She was lovely. Much better than that Alyssa.
We Brits had a great saying - Go Home Yank!
That American is so fussy. She should try the US instead of being such a pain.
She's a first-time buyer and she adapted. Three days is not much time to change. :)
"We weren't able to add your reply. Please try again." I've run into this twice now on youtube when trying to leave a comment.
Gah. I just love these two.
75 % of the remake video is the first location video very disappointed... should have spent more time on the after the purchase of their home... more video of the premises. Though that the u of all would be more insight full... clearly content is not that important.$$$
Keep in mind that not everyone has seen the original episodes and these episodes were back when watching TV online wasn't nearly as accessible as it is now. This update episode originally aired in 2009. They already edit out parts of the episodes as is, and you're asking to cut them even further and just have them go around the house and talk? No, lol.
Can't make out the meaning of your last sentence.
