Escape to the Chateau fans were left reaching for the tissues after the Strawbridge family shared a poignant goodbye. Monday evening's episode marked the final ever instalment of the Channel 4 favourite - and viewers were soon left fighting back tears, as reported by Birmingham Live.
Ahead of the episode, Dick Strawbridge and wife Angel Adoree signed off with kids Arthur and Dorothy. The family wrote: "Only a few hours to go until our Christmas Extravaganza! Today is a special day here for us, apart from being the coldest, it's the first day in as long as we can't quite remember, that we are relaxing and winding down for Christmas.
"Arthur and Dorothy broke up from school on Friday and yesterday was dedicated to getting the house stocked for Christmas and being taxis for the children's social lives, but today we go with the flow, and smell the roses. We can't quite believe tonight is the finale of Escape to the Chateau! What an incredible journey we have been on these last eight years."
