I think that's a strange thing to assess (Mr Flique) I reckon he was only joking though
I think they just know how to have a good time, are acquitting themselves very well and not taking it too seriously. Besides I doubt very much they'd be thrilled with the plaque and secondly I imagine that quality is probably more a priority for their guests than 'value for money' ... which is not to say that it couldn't or isn't going to be judged great value, just that their guests are normally less likely to have that as top criteria.
Guernsey, I well remember the converted prison and the debacle with claustrophobia - have to say that did seem a complete set up...much like all the cooing and lovey dovery remarks this week, which are getting on my nerves - I reckon someone's going to be cringing seeing the edited footage.
It's awful and doesn't 'go' with anything (except perhaps Wizard's Thatch who are eclectic in the extreme).
All that I-like-to-gaze-into-his-eyes- over-breakfast.
I think the posh lady was the spitting image of Kim Woodburn with her hair scraped back (She'll love me for that ) I absolutely adore her and her husband though and would happily pay £210 just to spend an evening seeing how the other half live :P lol I don't like the fact that the bald guy got very defensive, surely he knows that sort of accommodation is naturally divisive, even if it is good value, it looks like The Situation will overpay massively looking at how much they put in that envelope-Although the picky blond woman is getting right on my wick as well (Really sorry but I'm terrible with the names)
I recall seeing on the Hotel Inspector series a hotel called 'Sparkles' in Blackpool (?) run by a very creepy looking lady., it was full of toys and aimed at kids. Has gone out of business now it appears but it would have been interesting seeing her establishment on 4 in a Bed.

Yes! She could have been on with Mrs Tee and Eileen and the woman from The Hotel Inspector who thought she was running a museum! :eek::D
Alternatively, the could get Alex to inspect Mrs Tee's and Eileen's B&Bs. :eek:
In my vivid imagination Mrs Tee has a secret room in a basement with a stove on which several saucepans bubble away with human heads in them....."vill you com downstairs vith me for just a liddle moment und see my mushrooms...?":cool:
Eileen is definitely a cat person though her martial arts skills were rubbish and I suspect those men in that show were going along with the gag to make her look dangerous...;)

Mrs Tee has two dead husbands if I remember rightly.
I think the first one died after eating some mushrooms.
I think the second on died after falling down a flight of stairs (because he refused to eat the mushrooms....).
Oh, dear. Hastings. Has a bit of a reputation for being a sh**hole.
In defense of poor old Hastings - it has really improved over the past decade or so. And the Old Town is really nice. I've got friends who have a B&B in Hastings Old Town (though they've thus far declined my suggestions to take part in the programme), and it's a charming place.
Agreed though - bits of Hastings are still rough as a***holes (and its burnt-out pier doesn't help its image!).

Hastings is between 30 and 40 minutes from us, but we've only been about three times in 12 years.
The old fishing huts are quaint to see and a couple of atmospheric streets in the old part of the town, but I keep seeing regeneration mentioned and it seems a very long time in coming.

Not been there myself, but I know it had a huge problem with antisocial behaviour, problem families, etc. From what I can tell, it very much got used as a dumping ground for problem families from other parts of the country.
So emotional! :eek: Would put me off from staying there, no matter how clean it is - and I disagree with the boys there - you can't be 'too clean'. But as we say on a regular basis - it's the owners who ultimately 'sell' the place.

Jam, I agree. Why is it that the token 'prize' or trophy for shows like this is always so naff?
BIB LOL!
I think she's a bit like Clare Balding.

Is this one going to be the corking ep of the week?
Am intrigued to know why you'd name your rooms after detectives?

After what she has said and how she game played about others.
Hypocrite.
Totally on the edge of insanity lol
Indeed.
No wonder he does not want to marry her !!!
They do not have a bad b&b but, quite frankly, I would rather stay in the first and second over theirs.
She was really harsh, too harsh, against last nights b&b and got some back. Serves her right for game playing.
