Lexie Carducci — property finder, developer, presenter, and influencer — shares her journey of buying one property a year for ten years. From the thrill of the hunt to unexpected hurdles like finding an unexploded bomb and a planning committee showdown with 57 objectors, Lexie’s story is full of surprises.

She opens up about the emotional rollercoaster of property heartbreak and hard-won victories, choosing two standout homes that have left their mark on her. While her mission is bringing the fun back to property, Lexie is no stranger to the emotions and real-life challenges it brings.

It’s a revealing, inspiring ride through the highs, lows, and lessons of a decade in property.

Get ready for laughs, stories from afar, and some seriously strong friendship chemistry in this episode of Memory Lanes.

We're joined by Clive Lewzey and Nick Street from We Are Fred, long-time business partners (and borderline mind-readers) who’ve spent the last nine years building something special—while keeping humour at the centre of it all.

In this fun episode, they unpack what each of them brings to the table, and just how few secrets they still have between them. But it’s not all business—both Clive and Nick share their experiences of living abroad, from Clive’s teenage leap from Surrey to small-town Texas on a sports exchange (cowboy boots, close bonds, and culture shock included) to Nick’s unexpected seven-year adventure in Dubai, a journey that profoundly shaped both his career and personal growth.

She’s usually the one asking the questions but in this episode of Memory Lanes, Lynda Clark finds herself on the other end of the interview. After writing hundreds of features about other people’s homes, it’s time for her to open the front door to her own story. From the joy and parties she enjoyed in her first home to the moment a burglary unexpectedly led to love, she shares moments that shaped the places she’s called home.

Homes can hold both the most cherished memories and the most heart-wrenching moments and this episode presents a different perspective on ‘home’. Marco Previero and Anna Barker share their journey of trust and support as they built their award-winning relocation business, R3Location, while navigating personal challenges.

Marco reflects on the profound impact of his young daughter’s brain cancer diagnosis and her journey to recovery, and how it reshaped his view of ‘home’. Meanwhile, Anna talks about the home in Streatham where she raised her children in an incredible urban, family-orientated community where gates connected all the gardens and the saying ‘it takes a village’ became a reality.
