The Donkey Woman is famously awful! But I'd forgotten how dreadful Mensa woman was with her attention-seeking funny turns.
Mensa woman is one of those socially inept people who have to have a crisis moment in order to escape a social situation that is beyond them...obviously happy banter around the table in an Indian restaurant was something her mensa-qualifying IQ could not cope with
Donkey Woman truly deserves her capitol letters. I could never tire of discussing her many on-screen moments but of course she was the victim of heavy editing ;-)
She received a real ding-dong of a bad review on TA recently... :cool:
From memory, they had 3 "terrible" reviews. Two of them have over 200 "likes". Not sure if there's anything in it, but it does seem rather strange....
If that reviewer had really misrepresented what happened you'd think Katy and Andy would have replied and defended themselves - after all, she didn't seem to mind what she said when on the programme.
Hmm, yes, all those likes for the minimal number of bad reviews. I'm not sure what's going on.

I think whenever 4 In a Bed comes on people remember Donkey Woman and go to her TA listing and 'like' the negatives....her episode was on just recently and when I read that review last month there were a lot less 'likes' on it than there is now. If her episode is shown again those likes will double I assume .
That latest review must be true and genuine because Donkey Woman had stated on the FB group page for the show quite a while back that she was taking legal action against anyone posting fake negative reviews about her property. She has not replied to this latest one and nor has it been removed.
I just wish Tony's full 'explosion' scene in the restaurant had been shown rather than the edited down version....I bet it was a real ding dong because what we did see was a very agitated man getting very wound up...:cool:
I've been out of the loop for a while and missed a lot of posts, but did we ever find out any more about what happened to that guy who got into a fight with one of the camera crew and then got arrested and had to leave the program?
I don't know if it is the way the producers chose the people, or it's just the way it is, but many of the B&B owners just come across as thoroughly unpleasant people. A lot of them appear to be as a rather sour nick-picking bunch. In too many episodes, the scoring by some appear to be unfair where they deliberately underpay greatly (and frankly they are cheats). Leaves a bad taste in the mouth when they win. I'd run a mile rather than stay in their B&B.
I much prefer Come Dine With Me where the great majority of those in the show at least make an effort to be fair, and the people in there are also more interesting and fun. And if there are unpleasant characters in the show, you can rely on the narrator of that show to make fun of them (and he is very funny) , which make it far more watchable.

That seems a very logical explanation for the number of 'likes'. Thank you!
I wonder if she actually would take legal action as threatened. I doubt it somehow because it's very expensive, and I'm not sure what her grounds would be. Libel? Fantastically costly. I suppose she feels the threat is enough. Really, she did an excellent job of undermining her own reputation on Four in a Bed.
Yes, I know what you mean about the restaurant scene. I watched again when it was shown recently and there is no climax to it - just the developing tension, then the aftermath.

I'm certainly surprised that so many of them don't seem to realise that winning by cheating and showing themselves as thoroughly nasty is probably not a good idea! It should be a week-long advertisement for their B&B, and really the winning plaque will mean nothing to those who don't watch the programme, and those who do will remember how they behaved, not that they won.
Can't comment on Come Dine with Me which I stopped watching some time back as many of the competitors had become awfully silly and annoying I thought.

I very rarely remember who actually won the show, more that I liked or disliked the couple and/or the B&B.
And I dont watch Come Dine With Me anymore. The contestants are way OTT and even the voice over man became annoying for me.

Ugh, that annoying game playing was evident in one of the more recent episodes that was broadcast....that annoying git Tom and his simpering wife Angela from the Highland Guest House in Scotland. They gave everyone top scores and then underpaid them - why would you give someone 10/10 down the chart and then underpay them by £20 at the end unless you were a total cheat? and of course, they won >:(
I knew she was trouble as soon as she was shown into the room and did not engage with Susan's welcome. They were not overly enthusiastic when asked about their breakfast either.
These two will come in for some serious stick this week

What a fuss she made over nothing!

Just read it.
The reviewer has only ever made 1 review (for Happy Donkey Hill), and yet has 205 "likes" on their post
And I've just read it too. It does ring true because of the detail, and because of what we saw DW was like. I noticed that there was no reply.
Funny though that there are so many really favourable, even glowing. reviews. This one stands out, yet has all those 'likes'. I can't work it out!

Glad it's back. :cool:

Steph and Dom from The Salutation.
Apparently is was put up for sale for £4.5m in 2013.
The brunette half needs to lose the slapped-arse face.
She's a beeeatch.
Yes...the slapped-arse face really needs to go >:(
And the terrible hair extensions.
These two will come in for some serious stick this week
Hopefully.:D
