I suspect we'll learn a little bit more tomorrow. There's been a bit of tension behind the scenes I think and it was interesting that they picked up on Karen being straight to people's faces rather than commenting differently behind their backs...does that mean other people have been found out?”
Its all set up, cut and fixed back together to make people look bad. I mentioned i met someone from last weeks camping its 4 days filming, and she said most of the good stuff wasnt even shown.
I like Karen, she is up front, and they were all laughing at the dinner table and enjoying themselves I didnt see any tension there at all.
As to the room she was in the Bridal Suite. JEEZ it was rubbish. I agree with her over it. Plastic tray? No way.
When i was head housekeeper of a medium sized hotel, our bridal suite was kept lovely. I even made some silk and lace bits and pieces. We had 4 poster bed, lots of little things that made it a wow when you went into the room.
When the said it was the bridal suite I thought OH what was different about it to the other rooms lol, just a bucket with some booze in it.
I have gone of 4inabed to be honest it just seems set up and contrived, and I still cant see how you can pitch a new small 3 bedroom B&B with the likes of the castle 5 star regardless if people like the people who run it or not. It makes no sense.
It should be like for like surely. Every hotel is more or less B&B isnt it.
I always thought the idea of the programme was to show small B&B in different locations and get people to check each other out and give constructive critisim, but some of it is ludicrous.
I mean why would anyone want a kipper and sausage on same plate bleurgh.......but still the customer is always right. Natasha should have said something like "oh I am sorry its just we have never had that combination before, and I totally forgot to add the sausage on the plate, just a minute i will go and get it for you....." or words to that effect.
She made such a deal about it.
As to the boat trip i think people are being a bit harsh about that poor lady feeling sick, as there are a lot of people who cant stand the sea, and at least she went and didnt spoil it for everyone else.
I agree with you i expect today we will see a few truths. The Bath Lodge Castle has a facebook page and they have taken off a few comments already....I think to be honest I would not want to piss off that Mike as I can imagine he is going to go nuts over the programme that finally came out, as he was very excited about it being shown on his page, and I think they had no idea how they would be perseved, so perhaps there is going to be on going fire works with this format yet lol.... I mean if he gets ticked off with customers reviews can you imagine how he is going to take this showing of his place and his reactions etc. Its going to be like a nuclear explosion me thinks lol...WATCH THIS SPACE.
P.S. Solairsail if you want to watch VILE please watch Come Dine with Me this week there are the two vilest people i have ever seen on a reality programme on there. OMG they make Mike look like a saint lol. xx
