    IT is a real hotel, the whole place is like a over glamorised Blackpool.

    better off going to the grand canneries.

    I really can't see this working without the Garveys, they are the central family

    If the Garvey's are going we should see the set up of another family through this series.

    Yep same here. With Donald gone too, I think they should end it after this series.

    It's just not the same without Donald, he had a much bigger impact than I realised.

    So far so good. Had more laughs already than the entire 4th series of Trollied!! (that's not saying much however).

    Crap so far.
    This is supposed to be a comedy.

    Brought in to replace Donald (the actor unfortunately died so I guess script rewrites were necessary)

    The hotel we see in the series is an amalgam of about four different places, the reception area is in another place, the bedrooms are elsewhere, some views from the balconey are from the Solana, and so on
    The Garveys have run their course in the series, how many times can Madgr kick off at someone or something. The Donald and Jacqueline stories were just silly and unbelievable. Pity about Olly who played Michael Garvey, he has grown up in the series. Steve Pemberton has repeatedly said that they are all out of Benidorm and will be doing other things

    Yes it is, it's called the Sol Pelicanos.... Only the Solana part is the fictional bit.

    I know it's sad :( I guess I can't judge him after 35 minutes though.

    "We've been going through a rough patch."
    "For how long?"
    "23 years."
    "You've only been married twenty two years!"
    "You can't say I wasn't warned..."

    :D

    Yes exactly. The pool is the only real bit. Maybe the roons too. The reception bit isnt apart of the hotel. Its usually a empty shell. There was a poster who posted links etc on another thread.

    Have to admit I just laughed a lot there.

    "I've lost count how many have I had now?"
    "Two."

    :D

    I've loved watching Olly grow up on Benidorm and he's a cracking little actor. If he's doing his A Levels, good luck to him. Hope we see him again before soon. Maybe in a Northern Soap

    According to the Radio Times:
    a fax from the US signposts the imminent exit of core family, the Garveys.

    So they are going. Imminent?

    I think they are only in two or three episodes.
