Bolton was featured on the latest episode of Channel 4's popular programme Location, Location, Location last night.
The show revisited Thomas and Angelina, who had employed the house hunting talents of Kirstie and Phil in May 2018.
The couple, who had been married for 38 years, had put their Bolton house up for sale to downsize to their forever home.

Angelina and Thomas, both support workers and avid Manchester United fans, were looking for two bedrooms, a south-facing garden and a downstairs toilet all for a strict budget of £200,000.
Which houses did they look at in Bolton?
First, they looked at a 3 bedroom house in Horwich which looked over a cricket ground and was on the market for £179,950, but this was too small for Angelina and Thomas.
They were next taken to a two-bed property in Sharples for £175,000 which was more to their taste.
Finally, they were shown property in their dream location of Smithills for £190,000.
Thomas was very hard to please, with Phil commenting: "They're not thinking about the big picture."
Which house did they go for?
In the end, the couple decided to choose the Smithills property and put in an offer of £182,000.
Two years down the line and the couple have completely renovated the property inside and out.
"Even though it felt like the right place for us and we originally didn't think we'd be doing much, we've just done everything," said Thomas.
"Yeah we got a bit carried away a bit I'm afraid, but such is life!" said Angelina.
They have opened up the downstairs kitchen to make it more open plan and painted it grey.
"She does like grey, you could say it's 50 shades of grey," said Thomas.
The couple seemed very happy with their choice and hope this will now be their forever home, a place they can have the grandchildren over and soak up the sun in the garden.
Location, Location, Location is aired on Channel 4 on Wednesdays at 8pm.
