"Location, Location, Location" is a popular Channel 4 property programme, presented by Kirstie Allsopp and Phil Spencer and produced by IWC Media, part of the RDF Media Group. The reality show follows two experts as they try to find the perfect home for a different set of buyers each week. It first aired in May 2001.

The 2007 series had a major revamp. The opening titles logo was changed and the format of the show altered. Instead of only one couple per week looking for a house in a town, two couples with different tastes look for a house in the same city with the presenters going back and forth to the different househunters. Each episode was extended to 60 minutes from the original 30. The first episode featured Glasgow and the second Sheffield.

Location, Location, Location has been criticised for ramping property prices, most recently by BBC Panorama (June 2nd 2008) which identified it as one of the property programmes which has contributed to the current property bubble.

Title of the show

A traditional turn of phrase used by Property experts is that the three most important factors in determining the desirability of a property are "location, location, location". This phrase was famously adapted in a speech by Tony Blair when he referred to his priorities of 'Education, Education and Education'

The phrase was originally coined by Harold Samuel in 1944. Harold Samuel founded the property company Land Securities which has grown to become one of the biggest in the UK.

Relocation, Relocation is a Channel 4 property show based on the same format as its parent show. Each week a couple look to buy a house, usually outside large urban areas, and also invest in a house or shop in the city, with the help of Kirstie and Phil. The series usually airs in the winter months, so as not to coincide with Location, Location, Location.
