I was going to ask the same question about how long it takes, and how many houses are actually viewed by participants in Escape to the Country; I always imagine that there are more houses viewed but only the best 'film opportunities' are actually shown? I wonder why there are never follow ups to any of the programmes as in, for instance, Location Location Location? I am very nosy inquisitive by nature and would really like to know the end story. I always enjoy the programmes introduced by you - you are soooo enthusiastic 
Perhaps you could instigate a new programme on rescuing old furniture - that would be good 
Jules is perhaps best known as the leading face on the BBC’s hit property series, Escape to the Country, as well as the BBC’s flagship rural affairs show Countryfile. Jules’s interest in historic buildings and design underpins the BBC’s renovation series Britain’s Empty Homes, whilst his lifelong passion for military history came to the fore in BBC1's hit Dig 1940.
In addition to presenting and broadcasting, Jules is also an engaging writer, with regular contributions to lifestyle magazines.
Jules began his career as an archeologist and his expertise across history, rural affairs and property, combined with his warm and engaging style have established him as a versatile and popular presenter.
Having spent most of his life in the heart of the Cambrian Mountains in Mid-Wales, renovating his own ‘Escape to the Country’, he now lives in Herefordshire, once again passionately restoring a period gem. He loves to travel, garden and rescue old furniture.
Jules's talk at the Country Living Spring Fair is titled The Accidental Gardner. Find out more here.
