Benidorm's last ever episode review

An abrupt end for this old-fashioned comedy.

Benidorm's future questioned

Questions have been raised today about the future of sitcom Benidorm after creator Derren Litten implied on Twitter that this week's episode would be its last.

British Comedy Guide, 30th April 2018

It is tempting to see it purely as a sort of TV equivalent of sheltered accommodation for light entertainment performers, but Benidorm, which is now 10 series old, clearly continues to find an appreciative audience. Tonight, Monty hunts for a job and Kenneth bricks himself when builders inadvertently brick him in.

Jonathan Wright, The Guardian, 25th April 2018

Joyce is positively fuming after the appalling performance by Sammy (a returning Shane Richie) at Neptunes, made all the worse once she discovers that Monty has given him a contract at Solana. Elsewhere, Doreen makes a dreadful blunder by sending off Pauline's novel to be published prematurely.

Ben Arnold, The Guardian, 18th April 2018

Like a funny uncle who is still threatening to don his mankini and embarrass the family, long-running comedy Benidorm brings the larks. Yes, the holidaymakers are still trapped in the Spanish laugh pit, and this week Sammy and Monty are enjoying showbiz shenanigans while Noreen senses her twin sister Doreen is about to arrive. Guffaw.

Joyce appoints Monty as the new entertainments manager at the Solana and, to make a splash, he plans a "magical" night at Neptune's. With the Dawson family still wary of Cyd, Rob decides to propose anyway. It's perhaps worth prepping any potential audience for an appearance from the Chuckle Brothers.

Ben Arnold, The Guardian, 14th March 2018

Get ready to shout "To me, to you" at the screen as the Chuckle Brothers become the latest stars to check into the Solana. But will the guests be as happy to see them as the viewers? Joyce appoints Monty as the new Entertainments Manager and sets about planning a magical evening, courtesy of the very familiar looking Costini & Co. Meanwhile, Rob pops the question, despite the Dawsons having doubts about Cyd's motives, Kenneth and Callum deal with their romantic entanglements, and Liam returns to Benidorm.

I talk to: Paul & Barry Chuckle

As the tenth series of Benidorm continues on ITV, the latest episode will see a cameo from two rather familiar television faces who happen to be two of my childhood heroes.
