Who lives in a house like this?

Somebody at the People really should read the Daily Express more often, if only to keep up with house prices. The paper gets a bit excited at the news Sarah Harding has bought a house:

Girls Aloud star SARAH HARDING and boyfriend TOM CRANE have splashed out more than £1million on a country mansion.

Except, it's in Princes Risborough, which - being in south Buckinghamshire - suggests that if you're only spending a million, you're going to be buying a large-ish town house rather than a country mansion. In fact, a million will get you just four bedrooms - a nice house, but hardly a mansion.

Mind you, the People just seems to be typing in stuff it's read on Wikipedia, blithely repeating that:
Princes Risborough, Bucks - the setting for TV's Midsomer Murders and Inspector Morse.

Morse might have filmed there, but we're pretty certain it might have been set somewhere else, you know...
