Just heard denise of loose women say

Her husband is in benidorm filming the programme benidorm , so it must be coming back then , love it

My mother said they are doing a new series. I loved Benidorm. I`ve got all the DVDs. Anyone who`s ever worked in the travel industry just loves it. However, I don`t see how they can really do it unless they have a whole lot of new characters. They kind of terminated it last time. I hope it`s not a case of overkill. They did a christmas special and that wasn`t so good

Great news Ladybird49. I love the programme. I watched the first 2 episodes again on ITV4 (I think!) on Monday night at 9pm. 2 episodes back to back.
Great comedy :-)

Same here, Charlie - I never watched Benidorm from the start, so watched it the other night. Very funny. My favourite characters are the middle aged swingers.

I love it ladybird. Didn't see the first series as never appealed. Then watch it by default one night and I was laughing out loud....I love the swingers too DEN, all the characters just bounce off each other (not in that way, you mucky lot!)

[ladybird49]

I hope johnny vegas is in it still , hes brilliant

[ladybird49]

Last episode didnt madge and her husband buy a business ? was it a hotel ? lol

[Charlie911]

Can't remember ladybird. But didn't Jonny Vegas lose weight from the first episode to the last!!! Like to know what he didn't eat ;-)

yes they did ladybird49, cant remember if it was a bar or not but I think it got burnt down.

[DEN53]

trt - I think it was his Mobility Scooter shop that got burnt down.

Oh I forget, it was Sue Pollard that said she was going to Spain this week to film with Denise's husband, so its got to be funny if she is in it as well.

[trt]

knew it was something that got burnt down DEN53 :-)

I'm sure I read recently that the guy that played the husband of the old dear in the wheelchair has died, so I don't know how they are going to get around that one!

[supersuezy24]

Ah brilliant :)
Kinda funny that you posted this as just Sunday night my mam was asking me if I knew whether a new series would be on :)

[mrs_overall]

I think madge & Mel bought THE hotel at the end of the last series.
Brilliant programme.

[craft1948]

Yes the guy who played mel has died..............I understand that tonyted has stepped into the breach....

[237SJ]

Madge and Mel bought the las vegas style theatre at the end of the last series.

[oscarkim1]

I've just read that Johnny Vegas has also been axed from the new series
