Benidorm

[Samuraisan]

I can't believe there is a new series. I remember the first was quite funny, but this one is dire. Does anyone enjoy it?

[Dee-M-See]

You are quite right it was absolute crap
not a bit funny or watchable

[Smowball]

I absolutely love this programme and have watched every single episode but was very disappointed tonight. And they've brought back that dreadful girl who can't sing and that bloke who acts thick all the time!

I enjoyed it a few years ago, but I saw an episode about a year ago, shuddered and gave up. Haven't wasted my time watching new ones.
Re-showing old ones would be quite fun!

I love Benidorm, but was so disappointed tonight. I suppose they had to find new people after the Garveys left. Why did they leave? It was a totally different programme tonight.

[Smowball]

Why were the Garveys written out?

[hc4361]

The Garveys were written out because the actors wanted to leave the show to do other things.

[gollob]

I could write something funnier than this. It was terrible What ever jokes there were came from various Carry on films. The idea is great but the script is simply not funny

[hc4361]

Do it, gollob - write a smash sit com.

I managed to catch the bit with Nigel Havers.
It's not a patch on the original series.

I like it, pure escapism ...
