Speaking for the first time since those controversial headlines about them being dropped from Channel 4 were released, Escape to the Chateau's Dick and Angel are joining Christine in the studio to set the record straight. As well as that, they’ll be telling us all about their third and final book ‘The Chateau - Forever Home’ which documents the highs and lows of the past three years at their chateau.

Sadly, Billy Petherick and Gwendoline Mouchel plead guilty and were sentenced on Feb 5 2024 for stealing 76 religious artifacts from 40 beautiful old French churches. Even tho Billy was 27 yrs old when he committed the crimes, he claims “youthful immaturity.” They sold the items thru an antiques dealer who was also sentenced and on eBay. Reported in The Times, The Sun The Daily Mail and French news. You can easily research it.

First family, the eco farm Cornwall - what you saw a happy family was too good to be true - locals knew that. First wife still is an eco enthusiast. 2nd wife's enthusiasm being followed. When you have a problem with anyone, don't stoop to swearing etc otherwise the 'gripe/problem' gets lost. (Instagram photo of husband wife deemed as 'dark') History repeating its self. Paul Petherick doesn't get any credit.

These two people started a "chateau restoring movement"! Some statistics would help as to what number of chateaus, run down houses, mills, barns and farms have been restored, filmed and shown on youtube? They have started something big, dont know which or whom to follow on youtube anymore! Im glad that Covid didn't ruin all of their efforts, hard work and money. They've pulled through it, they've become successful and I hope that in the future they buy another run down building and go through the whole process once again!

Creative? In one episode we got a glimpse of a room with a bamboo pattern on the wall, just like Del Boy’s living room. Did she copy that as well as Michael Petherick’s designs. By the way Channel 4 pulled the plug on the series because of concerns about their behaviour. Easily checked out.

@chocolatechipkookie3439 5 ай бұрын

If it was that bad why did it take 9 series. Channel 4 was not all it’s cracked up to be. Issues with their staff as well. Yes she is creative, all that she had done over the 9 years is all on show. So what if she takes ideas from other people. They all do it.

@johncrosley1 2 ай бұрын

@@SuziSellsSound Perhaps steal is too strong a word but if you listen to Michael she certainly conned him. His most recognisable design Potagerie is being sold as wallpaper and linen on her business site. Which ever way you look at it it’s his design. Have a look. She has no talent as a designer other than for simple childish shapes. If you ever saw the episode featuring the room with the bamboo design on the wall it was a straightforward rip-off from the Trotters living room.

If a company hires a graphic designer or artist to draw something for them, pays the agreed price, then the company owns the design. The company can use the design as a logo, advertising, or product. The Pethericks are not trustworthy. Michael's fundraising for renovations then he used the money for a vacation. Billy and Gwen plead guilty Feb 5, 2024 to stealing 76 religious artifacts from 40 beautiful old French churches and selling the items. Google it.

"Reportedly" not paid? "Seems to"? This is the language of rumors and guesses. Pethericks are not trustworthy. FACT: Billy Petherick and Gwendoline Mouchel plead guilty and were sentenced on Feb 5 2024 for stealing 76 religious artifacts from 40 old French churches over a 10 month period? Even tho Billy was 27 yrs old when he committed the crimes, he claims “youthful immaturity.” Billy used a crowbar to pry open locked cabinets. They sold the items thru an antiques dealer who was also sentenced and on eBay. Reported in The Times, The Sun The Daily Mail and French news. You can easily research it.

Do you remember the necklace for weaning calves ? It's worse today. 200 years ago, people didn't lock the animals in a box where they can't turn around, for an entire lifetime, and very few cows and calves were knee deep in feces. Today ( primarily in the west ) because of Gov. subsidies, many farmers keep the animals alive in whatever state of health in order to rake in subsidies and couldn't care less about the product because most of the money comes from the Gov. So much for "animal welfare". Meanwhile, everybody is obsessed with CO2 while the Holocene Extinction is accelerating. Good game. We've come far.
