Interesting - Heather & Chloe was one I particularly wanted to see, because they left it on a bit of a cliffhanger last year. They'd come up with an idea for an internet-based business that they didn't want to talk about on screen because they hadn't had a chance to develop it, but Rene seemed really, really excited about it.

Im looking forward to seeing the last few as well - was a bit disapointed with the last 2 couples, they just didnt seem to want to put the effort into paying off their mortgage, unlike the first programmes.

Do you know as usual I decide to join in very late in the day. Is it possible that you don't remember my name Anne Marie, and that is why you keep refering to me as Cliff Richard? Well anyway that's ok. I am looking forward to your episode this thursday. I think we should have a revisited in a couple of years don't you. Sorry I didn't get over to you and Sean when we were in London. Hope we meet in the future, Andy Lloyd. x

tbh disagree with some of the comments made, primarily with some of the criticisms of the 'two years is unrealistic'

To a great many people two years is most certainly unrealistic, otherwise the tv programme makers could have walked into any shopping centre and the first 7 people who said they had a mortgage they could have used them. The participants were chosen because they all had something that could be utilisied into making extra money to reduce their mortgage. Most money tv programmes are the same, Martins MMR came in for a lot of criticism too that mainly the participants had a larger than average income.

I think it has made a lot of people think though, about paying off their mortgage in a shorter term than 25 years though not ness as short as 2;) , and look forward to seeing next weeks :beer:

Hi Andy - no I didn't forget your name, however I'm not sure many viewers remember you by your real name, you are after all now infamous for your 'Cliff Richard' routine, so I thought it would be easier for the readers:D

I am sure our paths will cross, I can definitely see another programme due playing catch up on us all! Had a great time meeting other contributors, like you say it is a shame we didn't get round to everyone (I blame the London traffic!) Take care.

I thought tonights programme was much better than the last series, they didn't dwell on the first year too much like alot of revisited type programmes, just enough to get you up to date. The presenter seemed alot more comforable with it, no more of those "you own this much of house" graphics.

Really pleased that they did it, they seem like a great family with a lovely lifestyle.

Anyone know if the chocolate shop guy will be in this series? I didn't notice him in the intro.

hi its the chocolate guy thanks for asking about me im on tv on the 15th hope you enjoy watching this one:j
