Bargain-Loving Brits in the Sun serves up another slice of expat life on Thursday at 4 PM on Channel 5. This week, the series follows a mix of familiar faces as they hustle, celebrate, and tackle the everyday curveballs of making a life in Spain.
In Benidorm, makeup saleswoman Val and new beau Richard take their fledgling romance on the road, hosting a coach trip to the Lemon Tree market, complete with musical entertainment – assuming Richard doesn’t oversleep.
Down south, Drifters tribute performer Mark is whipping up a Caribbean chicken feast, joined by sister Viv, who he hasn’t seen in four years. The reunion aims to rekindle family bonds, though sharing kitchen space could add a dose of sibling rivalry to the recipe.
Meanwhile, back in Benidorm, property agent Lorna faces a dual challenge. She’s determined to offload 305 modular home plots, but finding buyers for the minimalist dwellings is only half the battle. She needs to find a new home herself in order to move on site and give her project the attention it needs. The pressure mounts as Lorna must balance work and personal logistics—a familiar dilemma for expats trying to make their mark.
Bargain-Loving Brits in the Sun airs Thursday, June 5th at 4:00 PM on Channel 5.
