Benidorm S4 Ep1 REACTION!

Kung Fu Fighting at the pool.

Benidorm S4 Ep1 REACTION!

Comments

Something to note about this series is that the actor that played Mel died unexpectedly not long before production of this and the special so lots of the scripts had to be rewritten very quickly after they were finished, meaning that this entire series feels rushed

Alfie Hunter

Everyone gets some

Rebecca Bailey

I normally skip most of season 4 and 5 when rewatching.

L P

Agree with most comments, embarrassingly awful after Vegas left really, cringe.

MarkC

I found the show went downhill when they introduced Kenny and Liam. They are just too over the top and poorly written

Dave Jones

I think you can tell there all over the shop in these episodes, the actor of Mel passing away really disrupted it and they had to re write a lot of the stories and almost re boot it

Ben

I agree, these last couple of episodes were terrible. There are some more poor ones around this time, but there are also some absolute belters later on. Would understand if you binned it, it's one thing to watch a boring 30 min episode, but it can be painful for nearly an hour.

Adi Hughes

It gets soooo much better

Sean Grundy

It does get better

Cameron Allan

Also - Cilla Black was an awful individual who hoodwinked an entire nation with her supposed Scouse charm - I'll never know how she ever got popular. Horrendous voice as a so called pop singer in the 60s, to incredibly calculated "down to earth" presenter of mawkish shit like "Surprise Surprise" and the terrible manufactured shit of "Blind Date". Utterly baffling woman - no one behind the scenes had anything good to say about her. Her turn here is the most accurate portrayal of herself - screeching for her "help" (slaves in her eyes) in her villa.

KB - It's difficult I know - but this opening to S4 was never meant to happen - the re-writes that had to happen due to you know what were difficult, so here we have somewhat a bit of a reboot - it has to start again with some new characters - it does improve. A few new additions here, such as Kenneth and Liam, do genuinely grow and be great - but this first episode of S4 is almost verging on straight soap opera, rather than the outright comedy as before, and being disappointing. Almost as if some ITV executives were getting too "involved". We should probably ask series creator and writer Derren Litten what he thought at this point - but I don't think we'll get a decent, candid answer from him about that for some time. Stick with it for now, if you don't like it mid season 4, I'd say at that point make a decision. Your time is important, especially now, and no one wants to watch you with a stony face not really enjoying something. You'll know deep down.

After I saw Natalie I immediately thought of two pints of lager and a packet of crisps and whether or not you have seen the series because I think it would be perfect for you it's hilarious

Daryl Hudson

S4 of Benidorm is my personal favourite so I hope King Boomer carries on. Kenneth for one is a great addition and is hilarious. I think the quality may have taken a hit to some people since the story had to be rewritten after Mel's actor passed away as said in DVD behind the scenes. However this epsiode has me laughing every time.

Sheridan smith played cilla black in a drama just before cilla died

John smith

That guy was also in the phoenix club with Peter kay. Also in waterloo road as a teacher

John smith

JEFF?!

Dextrous (Lewis)

Happy bonfire night

John smith

Kenneth is the best character in Benidorm imo. He gets much funnier in later seasons

Squanchy

Just stick with it. As with any holiday place, the visitors turn over and change. New characters develop and it’s brilliant! Kenneth becomes a hilarious main character as does Joyce Temple Savage (not seen yet) and lots of major celebrities queueing up to be in the show!

Lord Charfield

Re the noises - You obviously haven’t ever seen a Bruce Lee movie!

Lord Charfield

Kenneth becomes a fantastic character- please bear with!

Lord Charfield

Please stick with it. Grin and bear with it. Kenneth becomes top teir character, Liam is rewritten to be less of a twat and becomes endearing. And hold out if only to see mateo riding a horse away from a kidnapper to the music of meatloaf.

TomPalmer

Unfortunately Benidorm never quite recovers and is never as good as it once was from this point onwards. It can still be fun to watch but relies quite heavily on UK pop culture references for jokes etc

Michael May

Cilla black a British 80-90s TV legend should check her out on YouTube

Amanda

The show gets a lot funnier when Joyce temple savage arrives next season I think

BRADLEY Smith

Cilla’s music was playing on the drive up to the mansion!

Lord Charfield

kenneth becomes one of the legends of the show! give him a chance!!

Ian Staines

Cilla Black was a singer in the 60's who went on to have a successful TV career in the UK. She was managed by Brian Epstein after John Lennon introduced them. She worked at the Cavern Club in Liverpool where the Beatles played. Also some of her hits were produced by George Martin the Beatles producer. And she died at her Spanish villa where I think they filmed this episode.

Jason Bonner

Also I agree with a lot of what people are saying, for a while this does turn not that great, but returns for a bit and near the end gets bad again

Matt

Madg wasn't a trailer park girl, she became an official member of "The Caravan Club" and you know the first rule of Caravan Club

Matt

Honestly Brian you need to download stremio if you install the right add ons you will get anything and everything you want to watch in great quality

charlie wright

To me it gets really good once they focus a bit more on the staff, I think this happens a lot more from season 5. I would be really sad if you stop the reactions of this how, but understand its not for everyone.

Skye Blandford

When people said it was a bad show they were referring to how bad it gets after season 3. Interesting to see if yo stick to it from this point but i will admit i did enjoy the first 3 seasons and im going to keep watching the benidorm reactions to give it a fair chance.

Tom Sinclair

If you only give it another couple of episodes then you'll definitely stop watching. Series 5 gets much better though.

Tom

unlike OFAH - it doesnt get better with longer shows

Craig McCulloch

It does pick up a bit. Kenneth turns out to be one of the best characters in the show

Joe Regan

The episodes do get better Kenneth the new character gets really funny please keep reacting.

Michael Williams

Don't think so, it's called 'Benidorm Christmas Special (2010) REACTION' and was uploaded on 20thh of October. Hopefully that helps :)

Steve G

I think the "spunk" thing might have gone over your head. The US and UK have very different definitions for the word. In the Uk is basically means jizz. In the US it means ambition or courage. This episode wasn't up to the usual standards. I cringed a lot, and not in a good way. I wouldn't blame you if you dropped the show. I think many viewers stopped watching around this time. In fact, I think I did too.

ThetaSigmaTheOriginal

Is it in a different Tier? I don’t see it

Josh B

This was a weak episode in my opinion. The next few seasons, it doesn’t get any better. Johnny Vegas comes back in Season 7

Graham Goldberg

we had that a couple of weeks ago

trickster

Noooo! You missed the Christmas Special!

Josh B

This is where Benidorm gets pretty ridiculous, don’t know if the writers changed or what. Picks up a bit again in season 6 I’d say.
