Escape to the Country will return to screens across the UK at 3pm on April 14, with houses around the Norfolk and Suffolk countryside featuring.

The BBC One episode synopsis explains that presenter Alistair Appleton "helps a couple who have never lived in an older home, but who are now ready to fall for a bit of period charm in either Norfolk or Suffolk.

"With a £270,000 budget and three lively whippets to please, they are after a dog-friendly garden and a slice of East Anglian architectural history to call home.

"Alistair also meets a willow farmer and discovers how this wonderfully sustainable crop is being woven into the future."

The last episode featuring the eastern counties aired in October, when presenter Steve Brown helped south London couple Natasha and Lindsay find a new home.

The pair viewed homes in Diss and Long Stratton, and enjoyed a pint at The Locks Inn in Geldeston.
