They really must be going out of their way to get obnoxious characters now.I enjoyed the show better when folk had fun and made a good effort to cook.

I think 2 is generous Yogi.... she would have got 0 from me
That sounds quite fair.

We don't even see much of the food now.

Yes, and they should cut back on the 'entertainment', too, in my opinion
I hope I'm not a snob but it all looks a bit vulgar to me
OK I don't like Rowena already and her Edwardian persona 
Mr Delovely seems nice enough though

Yep more "out there" character types on this show too.

Too much red around. The owner seems rather jolly, though

Agreed. It looks awful from the outside and not very inviting
Oh Lord what a precious bunch we've got here - we didn't need the literature and oh no get that ratty out of here

Yes, that snake was rather fun (unlike the bloke who made that remark)
the bloke who sent his wife a birthday card for valentines day is bordering on homophobia with his comments

Aw I loved Blackpool when younger,my late mum and dad took me and me sister there for our summer holidays.The pleasure beach etc,fantastic! Long time since I've been and heard it's a bit run down now and caters more for stag and hen do's rather than family holidays.We always went self catering in flats.

Definitely homophobic.

Best to remember it how it was, Katty.
I was there for two weeks in the summer of '76,and got toasted alive. It was the seventies and early eighties we went.

I think I told you the last time there was a Blackpool B & B, my memories of Blackpool are when I was 16 and I went there and I wanted to go on the mad mouse ride and they had this cardboard cut out and if you were smaller than it, you couldn't go on the ride - I was too small 
I really dislike Rowena - in fact I dislike most of them apart from the hosts tonight but as can always happen, that can change

'76 was the hottest summer on record, I believe!
