Dick and Angel Strawbridge's beach photo baffles Escape to the Chateau viewers

Escape to the Chateau fans were all in agreement as the Strawbridge family shared a picture from their annual summer holiday away.

Dick, Angel, Dorothy and Arthur have swapped their home, Château de la Motte-Husson in Martigné-sur-Mayenne for a beach break in the sunshine.

Posting a photo of themselves on Instagram, the family looked extremely relaxed. Dick and Arthur posed in matching shirts, while Dorothy and Angel opted for bold dresses.

Sharing details of their trip, Dick and Angel said: "It’s most certainly been a busy year and like many we hope you have some time over the summer to spend it with family. Although we have never achieved the rumoured ‘Two Hour Lunch Break’ or ‘Month of August Holiday’ yet, we continue to believe it will happen! But one tradition remains, every year we try and do something new, a first for Arthur & Dorothy.

This year, we are teaching the children to snorkel and like many things, fearless Arthur has taken to it like a fish to water and Dorothy is cheering from the sides after having her feet nibbled on our first venture into the sea!! Little does she know that people actually pay for this service!"

However, fans in the comments were baffled as to how tall Arthur is compared to when he was last on TV. Deanna said: "Arthur has gotten so tall."

Maria said: "What a lovely photo. How tall is Arthur???"

Jan said: "Gosh how the children are growing."

Alison added: "Oh my goodness Arthur is nearly as tall as mummy."

And Betty said: "Great to see you having fun. My word Arthur has got so tall!!"
