I saw the original series. It was OK but didn't want to watch it again.

Me neither. I'm sick of celebs poncing round the world and pretending to fit in with "normal" people.

I love anything to do with India and have been watching. Despite the poverty and squalor, there is something really magical about the place.

I was looking at pictures of Britt when she was young and can't believe it is the same person. I'm sure if she had aged naturally, she would look better. I think Bannatyne looks very well for 71. I only half recognised Susie Blake.

Re: The Real Marigold Hotel On BBC1 Now

I have watched all the series so far, I really enjoyed each one .

I wouldn't want to go myself too much dirt and squalor and the possibility of germs. I should add the same applies to any big town or city in the UK, animal dirt no problem human dirt yuk

Re: The Real Marigold Hotel On BBC1 Now

I have never really watched any of the series before but l do like Britt Eckland, she’s interesting and speaks a lot of sense!

I was amazed at the actress that always seems to play shy nervy characters. I couldn’t believe it when she said she was a Buddhist and started chanting!

Dashing Duncan, nearly missed the bus when he couldn’t find a toilet. He must have a weak bladder like many older men seem to get.

Zandra Rhodes is as whacky as ever and has a colourful selection of clothes, not to mention her hair!

The 1st series was interesting, the second was like take it or leave it. Now, to me, it's trying to flog a dead horse. Besides, I can't stand that Rhodes woman.

******Just to say, l was confusing the actress (Susie Blake) who l said usually played shy, nervy characters with actress, Thelma Barlow who normally plays shy, nervy characters.
To me, they look very similar.

Re: The Real Marigold Hotel On BBC1 Now

I think I watched the first season. I have just started watching this one. It has a good mix of personalities.

Just on the subject of Britt. It's interesting because if you are that attractive when young you simply can't win. I'm thinking Britt vs Bardot, one trying to preserve youth, the other ageing naturally. Both are bashed for their individual approaches.
