She did a turn. She did quite well.

Shane Richie was good, playing a redcoat. Very out of character.

[Misky]

I keep on watching it and can't believe how bad it is. I even record it to watch on a Saturday morning rather than during the week. It's just been confirmed that the will be another series too!

[weecalf]

dont worry I hate most on tv am thinking of removing the guts of the telly and making it into a fish tank are there any real thin fish out the damn hi tect tellies

[mallyh]

i enjoyed last nights show shane Ritchie made me laugh with his over the top acting and joan Collins surprised me with her singing x

Thanks for saying it was Shane Ritchie, I was wondering who he reminded me of !! Joan Collins is fab for her age though isn't she ? I thought it was nice when Les's son came back at the end .....

[Zacs-Master]

Shane Richie acted them all off the set IMHO with his parody of a fading 70s / 80s comic / compère.

[andy-hughes]

We are on Series Nine, in my view that is just the six series too long.

[viv41]

Sorry andy. there's going to be another one next year !

[hc4361]

Madge has already signed up for the next series.

[viv41]

hc, what do you think of Joan Collins ?

[jackthehat]

I've watched a couple of episodes of Benidorm over the years and it has left me cold. Although, I respect that other people find it funny......strange as it is to me.

I doubt that Dame Joan actually needs the money but I imagine Casting Directors are troubling her less frequently these so why shouldn't she accept a job offered to her?

Shane Richie started off his 'career' as a Bluecoat at Pontins, so it shouldn't have been too much of a stretch for him.....which is just as well.

[viv41]

Are you not talking to me hc ??

[hc4361]

viv, I love Joanie - she's a game old bird not to proud to send herself up.

[viv41]

I totally agree and she looked great last night, in her 80's now.

[Bathsheba]

she's a Dame, JTH? I never knew that ;)

Really Baths....she was also married to Sir Sidney, too.


Seriously, Benidorm is well past its use but date.
