Catherine’s professionalism and approach reflect the standards we value, and she’ll be a great asset to our West London network.”

The homes of two 1980s TV icons are both up for sale at the same time

Like the proverbial London bus, you wait ages for the home of a 1980s TV icon to come up for sale, and then two come along at once. The people in question — Terry Wogan and Bob Monkhouse — lived within 30 miles of each other, the former in Taplow, in Buckinghamshire, and the latter in Eggington, a little to the north in Bedfordshire.

Monkhouse had an enviably long career, starting out writing for The Beano while still at school, hopping straight from National Service to a contract with the BBC, and going to to become a comedian, actor (he starred in the first few Carry On films), writer and — perhaps most famously — a presenter of quiz shows and other TV programmes for many decades.

A House Next Door To Windsor Castle Has Just Hit The Market For £28M

There might be plenty of super prime properties on the UK market, but not many happen to be in the King‘s back garden. Take a look inside Harford Manor, an award-winning home next to Windsor Castle that’s currently on sale for £28 million (and available to rent for a jaw-dropping £150,000 per month).

Wondering what £28 million will get you in the leafy town of Holyport, just a stone’s throw from Windsor Castle? The answer, unsurprisingly, is quite a lot: nine bedrooms, a twelve-metre swimming pool and a sauna, to be exact, not to mention 40 acres of land, a tennis court and even a helipad.
