A Place in the Sun's Scarlette Douglas apologised for giving buyers a rare dilemma.
The presenter was helping Don and Margaret find their perfect holiday home in Portugal on today's edition of the popular Channel 4 programme. She showed the house-hunters around five stunning properties around the Western Algarve.
The married couple were searching for an uber modern home with a family feel and had a budget of £300,000. They wanted their home to have two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a swimming pool and a big outdoor space that was suitable for their large family.

The search got off to a smooth start as the buyers were bowled over by a two bed apartment in Lagos. The search went from strength to strength as Don and Margaret were impressed with each home Scarlette showed them around.
They whittled their decision down to a three-bed apartment in Jardim da Meia Praia and a three-bed apartment in Carvoeiro. However, Don and Margaret said they weren't going to make an offer as they needed more time to deliberate.
Don said: "This is the problem. They tied. We need to discuss it amongst ourselves and our family. It doesn't mean we won't make an offer. But, at this point in time, we've got to go and think about it."
Don confirmed he would return in a week's time and Scarlette apologised for showing them around two homes they couldn't pick a favourite from. She added: "I'm sorry that I gave you that dilemma and I hope that one of them will be your holiday home at some point."
Scarlette also confirmed at the end of the episode that she rarely encounters buyers who are unable to pick a clear favourite. She added: "There's only been a handful of times that I've managed to find two properties that my house-hunters cannot decide between."
A Place in the Sun airs weekdays at 3pm on Channel 4 and All 4
