This Weekend on Really TV: From Antique Hunts to Haunted Homes – Pick Your Fix
If you’re hunting for something that makes you think, “Why didn’t I know about this?” – Really TV’s line‑up this weekend delivers a mix of treasure hunts, ghost hunting, and a splash of real‑estate glamour that will keep you glued to the screen.
Salvage Hunters – The “Deal‑Making” Show That Keeps the Bells Ringing
Salvage Hunters takes you to historic sites and bustling markets, where the hosts Drew and Viki haggle for vintage finds. The latest episodes feature a Victorian folly in Devon and a 19th‑century country mansion on Scotland’s south coast. The show’s charm lies in the blend of historical insight and the thrill of the bargain bite.
I’m still entertained by the way the hosts turn a dusty attic into a treasure trove, and the occasional “whoa” moment when a seemingly ordinary object turns out to be priceless.
Fantasy Homes By The Sea – For the Dreamer With a Budget
Moving to the coast has never been more tempting. In the new episode, a couple with a £550,000 budget hunts for a spacious coastal property. The series showcases the ups and downs of buying a holiday home, from zoning headaches to the ultimate “is that the right view?” moment.
It’s a reliable window into the property market, though the drama is a bit predictable if you’ve seen a dozen similar shows.
The Repair Shop – The Gentle Fixer‑Upper
The Repair Shop brings expert artisans back to life, repairing everything from a WWI dominoes box to a broken banjo. The latest episode focuses on a rusty bicycle and a Chinese porcelain figurine.
The show holds up well because the craftsmanship is genuine and the stories behind each item feel personal.
Help! My House Is Haunted – A Ghostly Escapade for the Curious
In a late‑night slot, the team tackles a variety of haunting claims. One episode finds a couple tormented by a poltergeist in a countryside farmhouse, while another follows a mother’s nightmare in her childhood home.
The series is still entertaining for those who enjoy a good scare, though it can feel repetitive for seasoned ghost‑hunters.
The Hotel Inspector – Reality Meets Hospitality
Alex Rutter visits a manor in Caer Beris and a quirky inn on the Devon coast to see how they can turn a struggling hotel into a profitable venture. The show mixes expert advice with on‑the‑spot challenges.
It’s one of the better options for viewers who want a mix of business insight and personal drama.
My Lottery Dream Home – The Lottery‑Won House Hunt
Three episodes of this series showcase families using their winnings to find a dream home. From Miami to Pennsylvania, the show offers a feel‑good narrative about turning luck into a lifestyle change.
It’s reliable entertainment, but the plot can feel formulaic if you expect hard‑earned grit.
A Place In The Sun – The Sun‑seeking Property Swap
British couples trade grey skies for sun across the globe. The latest episode features couples moving from the UK to sunny destinations, with experts helping them navigate visas, property taxes, and local culture.
For those who dream of a vacation home, it’s a one‑of‑the‑better options.
Long Lost Family – Human Stories That Stick
Davina McCall and Nicky Campbell revisit families reunited by the show, checking in on how lives have evolved. It’s a touching reminder of the power of family ties.
The emotional depth remains strong, though the format repeats similar themes each episode.
Who Do You Think You Are? – A Journey Through Heritage
Reggie Yates explores his ancestor’s roots in Ghana, uncovering a complex family history. The episode mixes travel with genealogical intrigue.
A one‑of‑the‑better options for those who love a blend of documentary and personal quest.
Bottom Line: This weekend’s lineup offers a little something for every taste – whether you’re after antique bargains, ghostly thrills, or a feel‑good property story. Pick the show that fits your mood and enjoy a curated mix of reality, history, and a dash of the supernatural.
