  • Comment: Per Tavantius, this is a subject that needs citations illustrating notability. So far the bulk of what's been cited are WP:PRIMARY sources. Please try and include critic reviews to help show notability. This has potential, but needs to be expanded. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 15:43, 30 October 2024 (UTC)
  • Comment: It should be notable if you can make it so that the BBC sources will be replaced with secondary sources. Additionally, are there any critic reviews on the show. After including those, I'lll accept it. Tavantius (talk) 15:32, 30 September 2024 (UTC)

Home Away from Home is a British television programme produced by the BBC.[1][2] The programme ran for two series in 2014 and 2015 and follows couples who swap homes for a holiday.[3] The show saw people experience different ways of life and local cuisine over three days.[4]

Gyles Brandreth narrated the second series[5] and Gloria Hunniford narrated the first series.[6]

Concept

[edit]

The series follows the concept of strangers experiencing home-swap holidays, where homes are swapped for vacation purposes.[7] The series showed places in England but did have some episodes in Wales.[8] The holiday destinations are a surprise for the participants.[9] Narrator Gloria Hunniford called the format "brilliant", saying the home-swapping offers affordable holidays for families in tough economic times.[10]
