Have you missed watching Dick and Angel Strawbridge restore their 19th-century French chateau? The wait is over as Escape to the Chateau returns to our screens on Sunday 24 October at 8pm on Channel 4 for an action-packed season eight.
With weddings and events on hold for the second year, Dick and Angel have decided to tackle the exterior of the Chateau.
Dick and Angel said, “It’s hard to believe we started our journey over six years ago. The Chateau has changed and evolved, and we have loved every moment, every challenge! We feel very humble to have the opportunity to continue sharing our adventures.
“2021 has been an interesting and unusual year. With weddings and events still on hold, we’ve been busy tackling that long ‘to do’ list and spending quality time together as a family. There’s been plenty of surprises along the way and we can’t wait to share the next part of our journey with you.”
If you can't wait until Sunday or want to start your Christmas shopping early, you're in luck as we've found the best Escape to the Chateau gifts.
