Escape to the Chateau’s Dick Strawbridge ‘hurt and surprised’ by grim discovery in Channel 4 home
DICK Strawbridge revealed grim details about Château de la Motte-Husson after the Channel 4 show returned to our screens on Sunday night.
The final series of Escape to the Chateau follows husband and wife duo Dick and Angel Strawbridge who have spent years transforming their Chateau in France.
But the couple had more work on their hands as they prepared to get ready for wedding season.
They faced many challenging hurdles including a storm building their wedding workshop Atelier de Mariage.
A designer proposed Dick and Angel to have a "date night" in one of the four new guest rooms.
But Dick couldn't hide his disappointment about a noticeable feature in one of the rooms - the shower.
Dick said: "We tried everything when we were staying in the rooms.

"One thing that surprised me completely is this. The shower hurt me. It's like little needles.
"Maybe that is what people like, I'm going to fix it as I don't like it."
The issues didn't stop there as he added: "You can hear that pump upstairs."
"That is not kicking in. I can see straight away, this isn't isolated from the floor at all.
"That means when the pumps turn around it's vibrating straight into that piece of plywood, straight into the board.

"There's a joist which has been vibrating the ceiling below, and I'm going to fix that by isolating this."
Angel was left stunned after Dick showed her the work that needed to be done.
She asked her husband: "Has it always been this bad? We have a month to go and it feels a bit tight for me."
But Dick thinks: "Theoretically there is enough time."
Escape to the Chateau airs on Sunday at 8pm on Channel 4.
