did anyone watch it ? there was this lady in blackpool running a childrens bed and breakfast it was hilarious!

How did she get permission from the council for the exterior of the builing,in a village I once lived in the local nursery weren't allowed to attach a 3ft.pooh bear to their door,and as for the interior of the 'hotel'
Imagine living next door to that,Mrs Sparkles more like Mrs Barking

Didn't see it but wish I had, when I saw your title I was thinking of the Fawlty Towers episode!

Fawlty Towers was 'The Hilton' compared to this

georgiegirl.....you've obviously never been to Blackpool.....it seems anything goes there, a hideous place, to be avoided at all costs, especially at the prices Mrs Sparkles was asking.

No wonder no one was staying there, she did say that she was asking in excess of £200 a NIGHT didn't she?...then an extra £10 for a crappy brekky....I don't know how many those 'suites' slept, but nearly £1500 for a family of 4 for a week in Blackpool.....you have got to be kidding.

BTW Mrs Sparkles I'm thinking of sending Gillian McKeith round!

Thankyou trace,have just googled and thought I'd entered a nightmare.Look forward to the inevitable repeat though

Ginger I was at Blackpool many years ago before foreign holidays became popular and if Mrs Sparkles represents Blackpool I won't be back,besides the rooms being utterly hideous,claustrophobia comes to mind..

Id just go for a laugh haha
Ive just entered her competition for a free weekend lol

It's a toss up between that or the Fat Beauty Contest C4!

Fat beauty contest for me,seen the trailer and they're all bigger than me so I'll pretend I'm quite slim.... for an hour..

i have seen this programme & find it very interesting.it did seem very bizzar that childrens hotel in blackpool.very unlikely i'll be staying there with my child.not my kind of overnight stay
