DVD : Benidorm - Series 1
1 2 3
Rating: 
- Brits abroad?
Very well written,excellent casting,its great that we have the ability
to laugh at ourselves,we have all met these people on holiday at some
point...EXCELLENT.
Rating: - So very funny and observant
Frighteningly accurate portrayal of Brits on holiday in the hell that is Benidorm. Sharp and funny, well acted - a gem that should have received greater credit. Will be getting Series Two as soon as.
Rating: - Brilliant
With the exception of the surrealistic and brilliant observational comedy (such as The Office and anything by Eddy Izzard) we get from time to time, most modern British comedy is formulaic, crude and not funny. This is crude and formulaic and very very funny.
Having seen this on TV, it took ages to get my wife and kids to watch episode one after I had explained the basic premise to them (badly). Once I did, they watched the whole series right through in one sitting and we regularly repeat episodes.
I suspect it appeals most to the sort of people who wouldn't be caught dead in a place like the Solara, but the casting is as the writing.
If it hadn't been for the Office, I'd say this was the best British sitcom since Dad's Army.
Rating: - I've struck Gold
Quite simply, thank the lord for this superbly hilarious series. Ages since I've laughed out loud and been left with such a feel good factor. The best (and they're not that good), sit com's now are American. We had lost the true british comedy farce.
Hope lots more comedy writers take note, this is what we want!
Rating:
- Poor begining to second series
I started watching the second series and found it far superior to this first series which i bought on dvd and watched for the first time. some scenes were very crude and not at all funny, unlike the secoond series which we could watch as a family without ambarassment.
the characters are better developed and rounded and I am waiting for the second series, as it beats theis first series hands down for me.
