Episode 5
The new series continues, as we catch up with house-hunters who bought their perfect place abroad. Jasmine Harman revisits Janice and Steven who made the permanent move to Estepona on the Costa del Sol back in 2017. With its traditional Andalucian charm, cosmopolitan Estepona boasts a lovely promenade, 13 miles of beaches and oodles of amenities. Janice and Steven's search got off to a great start with a firm first option, then toppled by a townhouse and a third property that had Janice reaching for her chequebook as they got their dream place within their £150k budget. Now, Jasmine returns to see what changes they've made and how retirement in Spain is treating them, and to enjoy a spot of bowling at their local club. Meanwhile, Sara Damergi catches up with Suzi and Andrew at their barn in Charente that they snapped up in 2021. Named after the river that runs through it, the Charente region offers peace, quiet and beautiful countryside in abundance, alongside quintessentially French towns and villages with quaint shops. After stumbling at the first hurdle, Suzi and Andrew took to a house with a veg patch. But that wasn't a patch on what was to come... a beautifully converted barn that won them over. After their cheeky offer was rejected, and a couple of days of negotiating a new offer, they eventually sealed the deal, within their £310k budget. Now, Sara's back to see how Suzi and Andrew are getting on and what changes they've made, before lending a hand around the grounds and taking a bike ride on an abandoned railway line.

Mysteries of the Abandoned
Some of the world's most incredible engineering projects now lie in ruins. These deserted places are home to extraordinary mysteries and untold secrets, and we revisit them to understand how they were built, and why they were abandoned.
They were once some of the most advanced structures and facilities on the planet, standing at the cutting-edge of design and construction. Today they are abandoned, dangerous, some of them even deadly. From uninhabited cities to empty factories, these long-forgotten engineering marvels are scattered around the globe. Science Channel uncovers why some of the world's most advanced architectural achievements were eventually left behind in the all-new series Mysteries of the Abandoned.
Each of the six, hour-long episodes of Mysteries of the Abandoned features stories behind engineering wonders, why they were built, and the reasons they were eventually left to crumble. Each story recalls the people who originally designed the structure, their historical significance, and why they were ultimately no longer of use. The premiere episode explores California's Goat Canyon Trestle railway, known as the 'Impossible Railroad,' that required the biggest wooden trestle bridge in the world; Ukraine's Duga, the notorious anti-ballistic missile radar, known as the 'Russian Woodpecker,' that still stands in within the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone; and the Grand Goulets Road in the French Alps, an astonishingly narrow and perilous mountain passageway.
