"We had a couple who had the biggest barney ever," Danni shared with Metro. "When we finished filming one day, one of them disappeared and we were like, 'Oh my God, we're not going to be able to finish the show, where are they?'". Fortunately, the missing person was eventually found, but this isn't the only time things have gone awry under the Spanish sun or Greek skies. Here's a look at some of the most memorable meltdowns and dramatic moments in the show's history, reports the Mirror. A 'claustrophobic' home leads to a walkout Danni Menzies once experienced a walkout when couple Shane and Sharon took one glance at a two-bed Costa del Sol apartment and fled. Despite its prime location near the beach and golf courses, Shane labelled it "claustrophobic" and refused to even view the rest of the property. The couple set their sights on a property with a budget of £135,000, but were underwhelmed when they saw the two-bedroom flat in Riviera del Sol priced at £137,888. Host takes a cheeky jab at guest A Place in the Sun presenter Ben Hillman was at his wits' end with house hunters Ali and Sue after they rejected several properties, including those that fit their criteria perfectly. After Sue complained about a house slightly under budget, Ben couldn't help but remark: "Oh goodness, you're hard work" – a comment to which Sue readily concurred. With only £70,000 to spare, the couple was determined to find a villa spacious enough for their beloved German Shepherd. They visited four different homes, yet none captivated them. "It's our first property under budget, just under £69,000," Ben announced, only to be greeted by silence, prompting him to jest: "Don't jump up and down all at once." Sue's swift retort – "Well it's not a lot under budget, is it?" – led Ben to exclaim: "Oh goodness you're hard work," to which Sue admitted: "We are hard work." Trying to stay optimistic, Ben added, "You've still got these beautiful views, you've still got this peaceful tranquil environment." Deciding another approach might be better, he suggested, "I'm going to let you look at this one on your own. I'm trying my best but if it's not one thing, it's another." Expectations galore A moment of pure TV gold occurred when participants Jacqueline and Chris left host Scarlette Douglas astounded by their extensive and ever-increasing list of demands for their dream home. Desiring everything from sea views to a personal swimming pool, to storage space for bikes, no feature – however extravagant – seemed satisfactory to them. Jacqueline, clearly overwhelmed, told her husband: "Flipping heck! How many?" as the long list of requirements grew. Despite a bit of friction and a lengthy wishlist, Scarlette dove in with five top-notch properties that ticked the boxes. Host takes on picky pair Jean Johansson didn't hide her frustration when Kamlesh and Sukhwinder criticized her selected properties as "tight" and "closed in." Standing by her choices, Jean emphasized: "I worked hard to find this one," while highlighting its prime location and transport connections. Nonetheless, the duo were left unconvinced and departed Spain without a purchase. Reflecting on their decision, Jean admitted to the cameras: "I've managed to deliver on most of the criteria but I just don't think they're feeling it." Buddy boundaries breached In Valencia, Donagh's house hunting was overshadowed by his best friend Amy overstepping the mark. Amy began to share her ideal apartment features, prompting Donagh to cut in sharply with: "It's my apartment, not yours, alright?". Sharp retort to striking kitchen Jasmine Harman encountered an unexpected reaction during an entertaining segment of A Place in the Sun. The episode showcased Jasmine escorting British couple Ronnie and Jill across France's picturesque spots, searching for their perfect home. The couple in question, parents to grown-up children, were all set for a new beginning in an idyllic French property. However, their house hunt took a comical turn when Ronnie and Jill had an instant aversion to an excessively bright red kitchen. Jill was quick to express her disapproval, candidly stating: "We can't possibly have a red kitchen." Caught in spousal crossfire, host Danni Menzies found herself in an uncomfortable position on A Place in the Sun. Tasked with aiding the hopeful homebuyers in their search for the perfect overseas abode, the Scottish presenter witnessed them clash over their choices. Mike praised his top pick saying: "The property itself is the best we've seen so far." while Lynn wasn't sold on it, commenting on the small size of the master bedroom. During the visit to the final property, Danni queried Mike if he still considered his favorite as an option, to which he responded: "It's still in my mind... It's not discounted." She then turned to Lynn asking, "Is this your frontrunner?".

Mike, foreseeing conflict, lamented: "Oh the argument starts.."
