Next Friday 2nd September at 9pm - I didn't catch the channel, but I think it might be Channel 5.

I wonder if it will be worth a watch......

    P.S. It's not a Carry on film - it's a sort of 'documentary', I believe.

    We may be in it as one part of it was filmed in stratford on avon at riverside and we had the caravan next to the one being filmed 

    They were fireman in the caravan but one of the guys did say it was very staged and were on occaisions told what to say 

    2 full days of filming for about 20 mins of airtime

    I know I shouldn't say it but the humane way to kill a rabbit might be for the larger of those two ladies to sit on it...Surprised

    At least this lot of protagonists aren't quite as wacky as the previous bunch.

    Think the guy with the video camera needs it shoving where the sun don't shine.

    I am so glad we watched it on 5+1 as it meant we did not miss the sitcoms on bbc 1 and got to bed earlier,do not think we will watch any more, a bit of great viewing for the Knockers,

    The group featured are not representative of main stream caravanners that we have come across. T.V. programmes only seem to be interested in cranks. Had to mute the section on would be bunny butchering, glad they didn`t get one.

    We both really enjoyed it but from only an entertainment point of view. We have been caravaning for about 3 years now and been on a heck of a lot of sites in that time, must admit that I am yet to meet one of the caravaning types depicted on these type of
    shows..... Where do they find them? are they just actors or do they openly advertise for 'strange' caravan type people Amusement value 10 out of 10 though

    I enjoyed it, bit ott but a laugh in parts as said before all made for a programme. Are these people real.? The 2 guys in the pub were funny, how many pints did they drink or was it staged. The video guy had a lot of views over toilet paper. How many numties
    are out there. Look forward to seeing next week.

    We had never considered caravanning but after watching the first series of this show my and my husband have been inspired to join the caravanning world and are about to buy one. Although the show is quite tongue and cheek, it definitely gives a positive
    and helpful insight to people who have never even stepped foot inside a caravan.

    Exactly, draw whatever conclusions you want from the programme and its occupants. But at least it gives an insight into the interiors, what it has and what fun can be got out of owning one. For people who never considered owning one it may change their mind
    on seeing what they have to offer, all good advertising.
