Hello! I am emailing from a TV company in London called RDF MEDIA.

We are currently in the initial stages of researching for a new property programme for the UKs Channel 5.

We are looking for 4 different couples to film over the period of 3 months who have just bought their dream holiday home in Spain and France and are hoping to start renovations on it very soon.Obviously the more ambitious the project, the better the show!

We would want to make roughly three visits to see you over these 3 months to film you and the progress you are making on your property.
The show will be an hour long and will show the challenges and difficulites encountered along the way as well as the rewards and achievements for those embarking on buying a property abroad.

If this is something you would be interested in I would love to hear from you!

The renovations do not necessarily have to be a 'huge project' but can be something as simple as a transformation of a house that the owners have already bought - ie. building a new conservatory, balcony or adding some new addition to their property.
Filming will take place over the summer but we will be making an initial 'recce' trip soon to view properties and hopefully meet potential contributors for the programme.Initially, I would love to chat to people who are interested in taking part and who are embarking on the move abroad.

RDF Media - the British television production company behind Faking it and Scrapheap Challenge - are looking for contributors for a new property programme for Channel 5.

We are looking for couples or families who are renovating their house in Spain between May and July this summer. Obviously the more ambitious the project, the better the show!

We would want to make roughly three visits over these 3 months, to film you and the progress you are making on your property.

The show will be an hour long and will show the challenges and difficulties encountered along the way, as well as the rewards and achievements for those living abroad.

If this is something you would be interested in, we would love to hear from you as soon as possible!
