Gaby Roslin helps Mica Paris find a sea‑view home in Sardinia with a budget of £850,000. S1, Ep7. The concept of a celebrity moving to a remote island is an appealing escape for viewers looking for a change of scenery.

Help! My House Is Haunted – 22:00‑23:00 BST

Clare investigates seven haunted homes, uncovering possible teenage dabbling as the cause. S7, Ep2. The paranormal angle provides a mild thrill for viewers.

The episode feels measured, not overly dramatic, which may appeal to those who prefer subtle suspense.
