I think this is it in its 3rd season now, obviously a hit programme. Interestingly if you look on tripadvisor its scores 4 out of 5. I seem to remember someone telling me that the "owner" sold the hotel recently but he was kept on as the manager as he himself was a huge asset, certainly a huge character.
Easy watching and very funny at times.

Looks over staffed by people who just do not care . Shame
Yep, they brought in someone to look at what they are doing wrong and don't care what he says. I'd get shut of Christian straight away as he is a st stirrer.His "it's too little too late" spoke volumes. What..."too late"? So it's all over? So there's nothing that can be done?!
No no, quite the opposite.

I started watching it and then thought - this can't be real (the camera angles etc seemed too perfect). Looked it up as a comedy doc.
Everything just seemed too setup. Cringeworthy in bits.
Are you telling me it was for real ?
Sadly, yes. They have several rooms set up with static cameras . you'll notice they never move.Everything just seemed too setup. Cringeworthy in bits.
Are you telling me it was for real ?

Big spoiler for what happens AFTER the series this year...
That's not my understanding of it. After buying the Grosvenor he went on to buy another 2 local hotels and it was those 2 that he placed is a separate LLP, and it was this that went into administrationIncidentally The Grosvenor is ranked on TA as 64th out of 103 hotels in Torquay.... I think that tells you everything you need to know about the 38 that sit below it....
