The TV couple announced the news on Instagram
It's safe to say fans are thrilled with the news on the upcoming series and many took to the comments on their Instagram post to express their excitement. One person wrote: "Brilliant news… looking forward to watching." A second said: "Fantastic news! Can't wait to watch."
The couple, who moved to Château de la Motte-Husson in 2015, have been firm favourites on TV ever since beginning their French journey many years ago and clearly reap the benefits of their countryside-living - but it seems it wasn't all smooth-sailing for them in the early days.
Writing in The Times last year, Dick, 61, reflected on the difficulties they faced early on in their Escape journey: "The hardest part was that I had to go away so often for work to fund the renovations," he explained. "But Angela is a doer, one with Duracell batteries. Even now she'll be up at 4am before the kids wake up to send emails."
