Benidorm
...the programme not the place.
Does anyone else watch this or is UKTV putting on the 3rd series purely for my benefit?
When it was first shown I did not watch as I thought it was a fly on the wall about Benidorm, then realised it was hilarious. It is very witty and has me in stitches. Only other person I know watches it is my sister in UK...

Re: Benidorm
It cracks me up too..... not sure what it is.... maybe it is flashbacks to family holidays in Tenerife during my early teens in the mid 80's!!!!

My wife and I absolutely love the show to the point where my wife was given a series set for Christmas.
Too many people overanalyze television etc for my liking, some mindless entertainment can keep you sane at times.

Re: Benidorm
I got the boxed set for xmas and it has done the rounds with everyone we know, lent it to some aussie friends (who have spent time in the uk) and they think it's hilarious, even they said - we have no comedy like that here - I knew if they liked Gavin and Stacy they would love it!!
