Overview: Phil and Kirstie head off on a sunny sail over to the Isle of Wight to revisit Dean and Sam Brand, the young couple they helped to find a new home and business for, back in 2003. At the time this young couple were fed up with the hamster's wheel of the daily grind and wanted Kirstie and Phil to help them flee the Midlands and head to what they described as a "magical isle". But this couple didn't just want a house, oh no, the Brands wanted a new business and a place to live, all for £320,000. It was one of Kirstie and Phil's toughest ever missions. Dean loved to potter in the kitchen and quite fancied a place with a foodie theme, maybe a restaurant, or a pub with a decent menu. Plus, this couple wanted to spend more time with their 18-month-old son William. So with their business brains in gear, Kirstie and Phil lined up some serious money-making options and Dean and Sam plumped for the Old Comical, a lovely pub, where they really made a go of the place. Four years on Kirstie and Phil are back to see whether life in their favourite holiday destination is living up to expectations and they're in for one hell of a surprise. Dean and Sam called time on the pub plan and have got a new business. Have they made the right decision? |
