House Prices
Allsopp has been accused (along with fellow property TV presenters) of fuelling irresponsible house purchases that led to the housing crash.

Famous quotes containing the words house and/or prices:
“A nation grown free in a single day is a child born with the limbs and the vigour of a man, who would take a drawn sword for his rattle, and set the house in a blaze that he might chuckle over the splendour.”
—Sydney Smith (1771–1845)
“On the breasts of a barmaid in Sale
Were tattooed the prices of ale;
And on her behind
For the sake of the blind
Was the same information in Braille.”
