House Hunters International packs its bags for London this Tuesday, following a Seattle family as they trade Pacific Northwest drizzle for the bustling energy of the UK capital. Airing at 10:01 PM ET on HGTV, Big Ben and Big Decisions in London finds a family of five facing a cross-continental move—and the inevitable real estate squabbles that come with uprooting a household.
The move is career-driven, which gives Mom—the family’s sole breadwinner—a slight edge in the house-hunting debate. Her priorities are clear: a manageable commute and a kid-friendly neighborhood. Dad, on the other hand, is angling for a place closer to the “action,” ideally with room to entertain.
As anyone who’s spent time with the series knows, half the fun of House Hunters International is watching couples spar over their wildly different visions for their perfect home. Throw in a major city like London, where charm often comes at a premium, and the stage is set for some classic real estate tension.
Expect plenty of shots of charming London streets as the family tours potential homes, and the usual dose of sticker shock as they face the realities of the city’s real estate market. Whether they manage to find common ground—and a place that ticks all the boxes—is the million-dollar (or, more accurately, multi-pound) question.
House Hunters International airs Tuesday, June 10, at 10:01 PM ET on HGTV.
