I love the Coach Trip too,,,,,,,,,,,

The Coach Trip is a travel-meets-reality show where a coach load of Brits set off on a six- week trip around Europe.

Stopping off at a wealth of destinations on their way, but confined to a coach, tensions run high when people are forced to spend too much time together. But this is a Coach Trip with a difference, because couples that become just too annoying will be voted off by their fellow coach trippers – dropped off at the nearest station and sent home

Yes, if I am around I will watch it, but there is a run of them on Sky on a Saturday afternoon.....2 1/2 hours worth, which OH likes to watch........

This weeks one with Bernard the bully made me cringe.......he went into a hissy fit if he was not the centre of attention......and whatever was the matter with the one who couldn't keep her eyes open, and left others to cook her meal......I didn't see the last one today so don't know who won.......I suppose it was the first guy with the outside gazebo thingy, who did a lovely meal, spoilt only by Bernard the baby.....

......and that lady was like a little terrier wasn't she.......

He tends to say what we would all like to say to the 'cheaters', and his ad-libs for those who try to be posh are really witty! lol

When I looked at Val I realised I should be happy to keep my bit fat ;O) she ate like a little bird didn't she?

Val the yorkshire terrier!! LOL
I was intrigued at the way she formed her vowels in an attempt to sound 'posh'.
eg the Northern Baath, instead of becoming Barth, somehow became Borth.

Bernard the carpet salesman , who's pineapple dessert looked dire lol
Dawn who disappears and falls asleep at the drop of a hat
and Val (who reminded us of a little Yorkshire terrier lol )

With commentary from Dave Lamb,who is soo funny, it's addictive isn't it?

How on earth could she be upset that she came last???

She slept through most meals lol, especially hers and left them cooking!

Oh yes Maggie, I have always watched it, and thoroughly enjoy it. I have made many of the meals. If you Google the programme title, you will get to the website for the recipes. It used to be on at about 8.00 on a Wednesday night I think, but am usually too busy to watch it at tea-time.

I'd never watched it until this series - it's on when I get home from work. Now I find it addictive - but probably for all the wrong reasons!!

It's been like watching a car crash this week!! LOL
