Oliver Hudson of Hudsons Estate Agents is to take a starring role in a new television series on Sky TV.

Real Estate TV, the UK’s only dedicated property television channel, approached Hudsons in October to take part in The Great British Property Review, due to be shown on our screens early next year.

The series consists of 20 half hour programmes, each show being based on a different city or area that has great opportunities for buying or investing in properties – and yes, you’ve guessed it, one of the cities is Hull!

 Two days of filming took place earlier in the month. Oliver, who was one of two estate agents chosen, had to “show” the camera around a property and was then interviewed back at his office on The Weir in Hessle.

 Oliver said: “I had a great time! After Phil and Kirsty hammered Hull a few years ago on Channel 4, placing it as the worst place to live in the country, it was fantastic to have the opportunity to show the great properties and opportunities that this area has to offer.”Â

 The Great British Property Review is being billed as a short, upbeat and optimistic show and is designed to show off each city to its best potential.Â

Hudsons and the city of Hull will be seen by over 21 million viewers in the UK and Ireland and to millions more across Europe.

The Hull programme is expected to be shown in February 2009.Â
