A family from Yapton who took part in TV house swap '˜Rich House Poor House' have said they are happy with how it went.

The Channel 5 programme, which aired last night, showed Victoria Maude, her husband Paul Walker and their three children switch lives with a family in Fareham.

Victoria, whose family is listed as being in the top ten per cent for income, said she was grateful the show explained the majority of their £1,716 a week budget went on school fees and not shopping.

She said she had never met the Edney family, who traded in their £168 a-week life, but she hoped the families could meet up.

She said: “I’m really pleased we did it, that they could come here and they enjoyed it.

“I’m really glad it helped in some way.
