Rather than return to Italy, Amanda and Alan will instead turn their attention to Spain.
The pair will be travelling to the province of Andalusia where they will highlight forgotten areas in the Costa Del Sol in a bid to boost tourism.
In keeping with the show’s format, they will once again take on a run-down property and tackle its renovation.
The proceeds of its eventual sale will go to Children In Need and Comic Relief.
