Kirstie and Phil are in Warwickshire, the birthplace of Shakespeare, where hopefully no property tragedies lie ahead! Kirstie's helping Isla and Luke, who need more space for themselves and their 18-month-old child. After selling up in Scotland to move closer to family, they've ended up rather closer than they planned: living with Luke's parents, his sister and a pack of family dogs while they continue the hunt for their dream home. With new jobs and a revised budget of more than £500k, they're relying on Kirstie to show them what's possible. She shows them some promising options, although one of them leaves Luke wondering whether a home can really be one for him if it overlooks a cemetery. Ultimately, Isla and Luke must decide whether increasing their budget has finally solved their property search. Meanwhile, Phil is with Jan and Jon, a couple who are mature in years but very young at heart. They hope that their budget of more than £800k can secure them a forever home in an area they've fallen for. But a big budget often comes with a long wish list, and Phil has plenty of ground to cover as he searches for houses that measure up. From rural idylls with party-ready gardens to modern homes with snugs and games rooms, and period cottages with beamed ceilings and bags of charm, each property offers something they want. But will any of them feel like the full package?

Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer catch up with two sets of house-hunters whose searches were all about flying the nest. In 2017, Chloe was looking to move out of her parental home and find her very own slice of Reading. Her dad Clive was helping with funds, but as Kirstie quickly found out, his idea of what Chloe should buy and what she actually wanted weren't aligned. Clive wanted an investment, whereas Chloe wanted to be near the cafes and buzz of trendy Caversham. Three years later, Phil returns to see if Chloe managed to get her wish - a starter home in the pricey suburb she loves. And in 2019, Ella and Grant were trying to find a place that would tempt Grant out of his mum's house. They'd been searching for a long time, but it seemed like Grant was nervous about cutting the apron strings. Ella was relying on Phil to find something spectacular, so that they could move on with their lives and start their own family. A year after Phil searched with them, we're back to see if they've finally managed to move on... and move out.

You want this billing? You want this billing? You can't handle this billing. Sorry, had to be done. Director Rob Reiner's high-stakes military courtroom drama is written by Aaron Sorkin (The West Wing) - adapted from Sorkin's 1989 Broadway play, which was based on a true story - and stars Jack Nicholson, Tom Cruise and Demi Moore, to name but a few good actors. When a US Marine (Michael DeLorenzo) is killed in an apparent hazing incident, two of his comrades-in-arms (Jason Marshall and Wolfgang Bodison) are charged. The Navy doesn't want too much attention drawn to this, so they assign serial-settling Navy lawyer Lieutenant Daniel Kaffee (Cruise) to the case. His old man was a real good lawyer, but Kaffee just phones it in so he can spend more time playing ball... literally. But working the case with him is Lieutenant Commander JoAnne Galloway (Moore) and she suspects there's more to the story. This 'hazing' incident could in fact have been a 'Code Red' - a tactic to pull a lazy soldier back into line. And it could have been sanctioned or even ordered from the very top. Enter cigar-chomping, dead-eyed, battle-hardened commander Colonel Nathan R Jessep (Nicholson) to point out that along the borders of civilisation there is no place for civility, namby-pamby laws or human resources interventions. Handle that truth, baby. But who can out-act who in the courtroom? Seconds out for Cruise v Nicholson. There's also a sharp-buzzcut, no-nonsense turn from the inimitable Kevin Bacon as the prosecutor. And if that wasn't enough, it also features Kiefer Sutherland, Kevin Pollak, Cuba Gooding Jr, and Spinal Tap's very own Christopher Guest. Edited for language and violence.
