Benidorm - Series 8 [DVD] [2016]

Product Information

Jaqueline - pointless without Donald. Has given us some great laughs over the years but you cannot take away the funnier side of a double act and expect the person remaining to survive alone. The point is you could not replace a character such as Donald with 'like for like'. It would not have worked. Some of us would probably be on here resenting someone trying to fill the gap - and I don't mean Jaquelines! What it needed was potentially a new couple completely. The part last night with Jaqueline trying to remember the lines from a film wasn't just bad; it was an excruciating 60 seconds of television carnage. With the programme's success uprising, a fourth series was commissioned; it was later decided that the fourth series would air in 2011, with a Christmas special airing in December 2010. [8] After cast member Geoffrey Hutchings' sudden death in July 2010 from a suspected viral infection, the Christmas special was forced to be heavily rewritten, though did broadcast on 26 December 2010. [9] Hutchings' character was then killed off-screen at the conclusion of this episode, which was viewed by 7.41 million. [10] Despite speculation of a possible cancellation, Benidorm did return for its planned fourth series, which began 25 February 2011, in which has been considered as the best series of the show. [11] Litten then planned to conclude the show at the end of the fourth series, though high demands from viewers resulted in him rapidly reversing his decision. [12] [13] Last year, Sherrie appeared on a celebrity special of ITV game show Tipping Point and the British crime drama film The Krays: New Blood in the role of Joan. Guide, British Comedy.

Joyce confronts Kenneth, who is forced to offer her free botox sessions to avoid his secret being reported to head office. Still annoyed at his dad, Tiger hides the news that Auntie Terri is on her way to the Solana resort. The Garveys take a trip to the Benidorm Palace, whilst Gavin has suspicions that Troy is cheating on him. Meanwhile, Martin's mum (Diana) and ex-wife (Kate) make a surprise visit to Benidorm, to bail him out.

However, if they were subjected to this utter charade of unfunny, poorly structured incompetence, otherwise known as 'Series 8' then I truly believe they'd be crying down upon us from their clouds in heaven.Absent: Johnny Vegas as Geoff Maltby, Elsie Kelly as Noreen Maltby and Selina Griffiths as Pauline Maltby.
