Ruddington is destined to be back on the national homebuyers’ radar soon after another visit from the popular Channel 4 property programme – presented by Phil Spencer and Kirstie Allsopp (pictured).
Villagers were alerted to the filming of an episode of “Location, Location, Location” here when cameras and crew appeared on The Green this morning. The reality show, now in its 17th year, follows Phil and Kirstie trying to find the perfect home for a different set of buyers each week.
The house being viewed today is on Clifton Road and being marketed by Thomas James. The local estate agent posted on Facebook “Channel 4’s Phil & Kirstie have confirmed that Ruddington really is the ‘Location, Location, Location’ to be! (But we already know that!)”. They included two photographs of the filming (shown).
Owner Matthew Dix revealed “They loved the house. Not sure when it will be aired!”
Julie Smith of The Black Cat Café told RUDDINGTON.info that the TV team had been in there for coffee earlier. Kirstie was particularly impressed by the “Comic Relief Sweetie Cake” on sale – donating 50p to Red Nose Day for every slice sold.
After the house viewing the final stop was due to be The Ruddington Arms to chat to the prospective buyers about what they thought. However problems with the crew’s technical equipment meant they had to postpone until another day.
Ruddington Parish Council has confirmed that the crew will be back here this Friday (24th March) to do some drone filming above Elms Park.
UPDATE:
The broadcast time for this Ruddington filmed episode on Channel 4 (Series 23 Episode 5) has been listed as Wednesday 20th September 2017 at 8pm. 📺
Don’t miss it! 😊
