^ Love Catherine Tate's 'Nan' character! She's great.
I may be in the minority here, but I actually really like Brendan's Magical Mystery Tour, and have been enjoying it throughout the week. If anything, I've enjoyed it more and more as the week's gone on.
I liked the mutual dislike between Lois and Matt, and how cheesed off Cherie (sp?) seemed to be during the week. Her face when she realised she had to stay in the tent with Ninette after losing the downgrade challenge was a picture. She could barely speak!
I can fully understand why people feel this doesn't quite have the same punch as CT with the lack of the voting-off at the end and all the tension this can create on CT. But I still (really) like it! Maybe that's just me.
Even my series record seemed to take agin it - two failed recordings! I wasn't keen on Monday's as I needed to know more about the contestants to care about what happened to them. The voiceover was too fast - she gabbled. Poor Brendan did his best, but I found it dull.

Going off topic a little, I got two failed recordings on it as well! Wednesday and Thursday. I just thought my box was dying..
Sadly Coach Trip has now been cancelled by ch4, this latest effort of a show by ch4 is its replacement, in my opinion its another good tv show/format ruined by ch4. Think 4 Rooms, as another example, Tamara anyone? Brendan's Love Boat will also air later this year or next, channel unspecified.
Only just noticed this was on, bet they were peed off that "Pointless" had grabbed the title they wanted.:yawn:
LOL my thoughts exactly. It's as if they've taken CT and tried to pinch the task part of Big Brother to reward or punish the contestants...on a budget:mad:
Sorry Brenden, I love you!, but you have been set up by the new head of C4 daytime. I've tried to watch a few episodes but it does not work. A combination of poor production values and putting you against Winbeldon.
Why in earth the head of C4 daytime thinks we need to cook against Jamie or Gordon, or need another quiz with Davina???? What is needed is a trip on the coach....
Sadly Coach Trip has now been cancelled by ch4.. .
Loved CT and never missed an episode.
Was really looking forward to this as I wrongly assumed it was CT format but visiting Mexico, Jamaica etc.
Have been away with work and came home to two weeks episodes, sad to say, its crap.
Whatever was Brendan thinking.
Seems most CT fans I know are similarly disappointed.
Hello campers,old and new.I've been on holiday so only seen the first week of this,not too impressed. I didn't expect it to be like Coach Trip,but...it's just underwhelming,it's all about the tasks,there's no spark.I'll watch last week's and then decide whether or not to cancel my series link!
I'll give you a clue Pakamack. Every night 2 contestants stayed in budget accomodation & 2 stayed in a Luxury hotel with the crew that thought up the show.
I've stopped watching. What annoys me is that channel 4 will probably see the low ratings and think the public don't want this or Coach Trip back... Can't win.

Thanks,jacobyte, I had grasped that,even in my most senior moment,lol, I just find the whole thing boring. I would like to see more of the other contestants, and the places they were staying. Just my opinion,though.
Hello again,I've caught up now,took a while,but I stuck with it! I thought the Cancun week was the best up to now,but I'm still struggling with it,to be honest. I don't like to compare it to Coach Trip,as it is a completely different programme,but I notice we still have the catch ups at the start, I would prefer to see more of the contestants as a whole group,more interaction. Hopefully,the powers that be at C4 will be aware of this,and the FB thread,and realise that CT was a better showcase of Brendan's talents,and bring it back out of hibernation. Funnily enough, I don't mind the presenter...but anyone is better than Dave Vitty!

Will try and catch up over the weekend - although, reading the reviews on here and on FB, I may not bother!
How was Amsterdam?
I haven't watched any of this so far, ANOTHER death in the family, so have been a bit busy!
Amsterdam was fab!
Sorry to hear your sad news

Am watching Coach Trip, thank god for 4OD keeping old series
Should be sleeping though
I agree, they should have kept CT, but tweaked the rules as the old lot always voting off newbies was getting monotonous.
