LOL TBH I'd feel sleazy paying for a date with someone, even if it is for charity.

Yes, I watched it.

I believe he is Greek Cypriot.

The Son's been on before, he was at Uni in Aberdeen??, only place that would have him was joke among the family, it was surprise visit for Mum.
I hadn't notice the Daughters changing places, assumed it was always the same one, they could have been doing this for years, I don't look that closely at her/them.

You have an excellent memory, Prince, you been watching since the first series?

As another FM pointed out the Dad is Greek, they've mentioned it more than once.
This is probably the Anglicised version of his family name.
In any case on the Asian thing, never heard of the term Anglo Indian?

Ha... Caroline IS the show is she? Hmmm. The popularity of the programme has nothing to do with the participants then?
I didn't even know it was her until very recently. Can't say that I noticed she adds anything at all but I guess those that like her obviously feel she is a welcome addition.

That's how I feel anyway Amy, she's been there from the beginning and of course the show's not about her, but she's as much a part of it and her dry delivery adds to, or often sets things up for their "amusing" commentary. Put another way, it wouldn't be the same without her.

Like George Michael, he's Greek.

No it wouldn't. I love her commentry and Craigs
They are 50% of this show for me.
It's wonderful seeing George and Linda back - her line about getting Nana out of the cupboard when they were watching that Japanese science documentary still has me in stitches two days later.
I always look to see what food they have on their table. The family with all the large dogs and the one called Dave. They seem to have slimming world hi fi bars, bit of free advertising for them. Anyone who goes to SW will recognise them in the bowl along with muffins ! LOL.
I wonder why they did not show them watching the last episode of Happy Valley as they have been showing them watching it for the last five weeks or something Also i loved Scarlett and the Mums face when Tom Hiddlestons character was shagging that woman on the Night Manager Their faces were a picture

Shame I missed it, I might have been able to buy a date with her.
P.s. Anyone seen what the highest bid was?”

What if she was a smoker? Wouldn't that be a deal-breaker for you?

I happen to wear Ugg boot slippers around the house, and yes I put my feet up on the coffee table. It's called relaxing.
Do you allow breathing in your house? If someone sneezes are they exiled?

Yes they put food on the table and then when they're not looking the dogs eat them, they need to put stuff higher up.
I have just seen 'the vicar' presenting a programme for Good Friday on BBC2. Will this jeopardise her position on goggle box?

I doubt it...for a one-off. Are you hoping that this is the case then?
Hope it's better than last week; it's become lack-luster w/ too many dull families.
S & S are happy types but lend nothing to the show. At least Giles & Mary still make me giggle.
I missing Steph & Dom. Where were the hair stylists from Brighton? If they'd been featured, I'd missed it.
Wish the producers would mixed it up a little. This show could used a broader cross-section of the British public. Just my take.

I'm about to watch this, usually wouldn't get me to watch anything like this, snippets of Robert Beckford at most, pure curiosity.
