Viewers following the show on Twitter were taken aback by the far flung location of today's property search and impressive budget.

@onlyher08591011 tweeted, alongside a "plot twist" gif: "Afternoon placers, The Caribbean and a budget of £350k it is then."

The buyers were wowed by the fourth property on the hunt. The three-bed apartment in St James was priced at £365,672 and boasted a double garage and palm tree filled garden.
Ken and Lesley decided to put in a bid of £330,000, but the owner needed time to mull it over as they had received multiple bids for the property.
