A Place in the Sun’s Scarlette Douglas left gritting her teeth as couple walk out halfway through viewing
A PLACE in the Sun's Scarlette Douglas was left gritting her teeth after a couple walked out halfway through a viewing.
Tuesday's episode of the Channel 4 show saw Scarlette meet Laura and Matt in the Tuscany region of Italy.

The couple hoped to find a property with two or three bedrooms so their adult children could visit.
They were also keen for somewhere with a view and a decent amount of outdoor space within their budget of £180,000.
While the first property Scarlette showed them was over budget and not to their liking, the couple were more impressed by the second one.
Hoping to be on a roll, Scarlette then took them to the third property, a large house on the market for £187,500.
After looking at a couple of the rooms, Scarlette realised the couple weren't as enthusiastic about it as they had been about property two.
She said: “I am sensing that you’re not as elated as you were with the previous one.”

The couple said the location was an issue as it was "really remote", and Laura added: "I think it’s more that if it was a permanent move then it would be more suitable."
Matta continued: "The location is a little bit of an issue. We don’t mind driving to sort of amenities, shops, that’s fine.
“But, it feels like you come off some very remote roads, down a remote track into the woods. It just feels disconnected."
Scarlette asked: "Do you want to keep looking around this one?”
But Matt replied: "I think we’ve probably drawn a line on this one."
Laura added: "It’s location. The house is lovely, but it’s location. So, I think it will be a no."
They then ended the viewing without seeing the rest of the house.
