🔥 A Place In The Sun Guest Reveals On-Set Moment That Nearly Made Them Walk Away for Good 👀

A woman who appeared on Channel 4‘s A Place In The Sun has revealed how she was left so furious at one moment during the show, she almost stormed out.

Karen Morrall joined her husband Mark on the series back in 2021, as they hunted for their perfect home in Spain with the help of show host Lee Juggurnauth.

The couple had a budget of £150,000 for their new home, and went to view prospective properties in Torrevieja, Costa Blanca.

However, they returned home without purchasing any of them, admitting that while they found the team on hand helping them to find a property ‘polite and pleasant’, that they wouldn’t do it again.

She hit out that some of the properties were a ‘waste of time’, hitting out that because it’s on TV, the agents ‘don’t really know a lot about the local area’.

Speaking of her time on the show, Karen admitted that the behind-the-scenes was not as glamorous as it might be made out to be, with ‘lots of takes’ and often, waiting around.

She told The Express: ‘The crew had a schedule of places that they took us to, and we didn’t really get any input into it.

‘There’s a lot going on behind the scenes. They have to get permission from the owners to film in the properties. So, if one property was perfect for you but they couldn’t get permission to film there, then they wouldn’t show it to you.

‘We just had one day when they left us waiting in the car for a few hours because they couldn’t gain entry to a property. I was furious and nearly walked.’

It comes after a couple on A Place In The Sun refused to sign the contract after getting a nasty shock once filming had wrapped up.

A recent instalment of A Place In The Sun: What Happened Next? saw property expert Ben Hillman return to Punta Prima, Menorca, to visit Whitney and Rose and their Spanish pad.

The couple appeared on APITS four years ago, and were on the look out for their dream home with a budget of £90,000.

They ended up buying a two-bedroom apartment in Punta Prima for £80,825, and were told at the time of buying that they could also be owners their garage for an extra £8,500.

After taking a look at what they have done with the pad, the trio got talking about how it was buying a property abroad.

Ben pointed out: ‘You bought this place for around £85,000, remind me.’

Whitney replied: ‘Yes it was £85,000, with all the fees and everything else, it came in at just over £100,000, including the garage.’

Ben then wanted to know how much they have spent since, and Whitney told him: ‘We’ve probably spent around €4,500. Not terrible.

‘We got brand new boilers installed. We had to have the place rewired because the wiring was so old. We had to go through that, get it certificated.’

Ben asked: ‘How did you deal with finding the correct electrician, knowing you needed a certificate for it?’

He told the presenter: ‘We were really lucky because our agent, who we bought it through, she has more or less become a friend.

‘She’s been really good to us. Anything we’ve needed, she’s encouraged us to give her a call. And then she’s arranged it.

‘She puts us in touch with an electrician, with anybody we needed. She’s been gold to us.’

Despite it going so well with help from their agent, the sale nearly didn’t go through, when the couple received a nasty shock.

He explained: ‘Even when we were buying the place, one of the conditions was to have it cleared out because there was so much stuff in the garage.

‘When we got there, there was still a hell of a lot of stuff in there.

‘So we said we’re not going to sign because we don’t know how to get rid of all this stuff or what the potential costs could be.

‘So she actually went and got a load of bags and cleared it all herself. I think she had about three car loads.’

Ben was very impressed with the agent and said that she went ‘over and above’.

It comes after Ben gasped ‘oh my!’ as a couple revealed their property’s incredible four-year transformation after a string of renovations earlier this week.

TV presenter Ben returned to our screens on Tuesday to catch up with Nicola and Paul, who appeared on the Channel 4 show back in November 2020 to try and find their dream home.

The pair were keen to find a one/two bedroom apartment with a communal pool and their own outdoor space, near Puerto del Carmen in Lanzarote and had a budget £180,000.

They fell in love with one of the apartments that Ben had shown them, and decided to put in an offer, which the owner accepted.

During the most recent episode of A Place In The Sun: What Happened Next?, Ben returned to the Canary Island to see how Nicola and Paul were doing in their new home.

Walking into the living space, Ben was lost for words and said: ‘Oh my goodness, seriously, guys, this is incredible. It’s a lot different.

‘I mean, I get it it’s the same, like the layout is the same, which is what you loved but apart from that, my goodness it is completely new property, isn’t it?’
