"is everyone demented where I go?"😂
I think the same but I say do I send everybody stupid where I go 😂
that sums up the whole show!
You either trust the one who takes over your business or you don't. You do not 'semi-retire' and micromanage everything they do.
it’s called reality tv meaning it’s fake it’s staged it’s scripted for drama & tv ratings
it’s fake it’s scripted for drama & tv ratings 🤦🏻♀️ reality tv isn’t real it’s mostly scripted otherwise it would be boring
That bath scene was such a weird inclusion 😂
rather risque...oh well better the daughter than the old bitty...but that would have been funny!
Simply orrrgasmic!
Odd for sure but it was nice to see Tara who started the episode with seemingly low confidence act so confidently in thr tub! You can tell she was really feeling herself and feeling beautiful. I think the confidence boost came from the pride she had in the work she had accomplished and good for her!
I'm shocked more people weren't talking about that l😂
Right! All seem narcissistic, no wonder they bicker so much
That much staff is just insane! The rooms look like a young teen's version of romantic. And avocado!
Ugly rooms, Google the Langtry and see how gorgeous the rooms look now.
@@getin3949 They are gorgeous now!!!
….and cut to the Mitchel and Webb sketch with Olivia Colman
na, they look more like an old lady's version of authentic Victorian. So dated ...
@@lisawentworth6831At an EDWARDIAN house. Ridiculous. Either be authentic or modernize entirely.
I think it might be time for Mum, Pamela, to retire and leave her daughter, Tara, to impose her style on the hotel! I'm Pamela's generation, but I support Tara. She's young, energetic and modern. I sense Tara's frustration.
I truly hate that mother. 😬
Oh dear: mummy issues.
Remember, 'reality tv' anything but. Editing sells a portrayal more entertaining .
While I understand her reticence, what the mother is doing is not on. She's driving her daughter to distraction. You don't "semi-retire" and constantly meddle and pick and bicker. You step out the way. The phrase "interfering old bag" has never been more apt for a person before, I swear.
@@melanytodd2929 Hate is a very strong word, maybe despise or find her annoying AF would be a little less ascerbic?
Yes, but Pamela is an old meddling busy body, so that's not going to happen. I see that all the time; parents that won't give up control so they ruin their mature children's careers....
Kinda funny that they call themselves a Board of Directors when its just Mummy and her children... of which two are little boys who don't seem at all comfortable with telling Mummy anything.
yup, it's a joke
Only one son.
where did she have sons involved? I missed that
Mummy is a narcissist, it has to be her wat
The uniforms are atrocious.
Someone just needed to tell Pam she has no taste, mixing very dated furnishings with a 80's tub. Tara should have gotten rid of that green carpet in room 39.
In March 2015, the hotel changed hands and was taken over from the Howard family by the Meyrick Estate, which owned the freehold on the site. According to a statement, Pamela Howard had decided to retire.
Shame ... would make a great place for a bridgerton type stay place where guests could dress up
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION AFTER EVERY TIME I WATCH A SHOW LIKE THIS! You are great!!!❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@FirstTurnYGO welcome!
Howard family; an explanation! 😵💫
It's weird how Pam lives in an up to date modern (for the times) apartment but then wants the hotel to live in the 70s? Not quite sure why she handed over the hotel to her daughter to then make her life complete hell? Like Ruth said, if she hates what she's doing so much she should sack her. I know this video is about 20+years old and Pam is probably no longer with us but this family makes me think for a long time they lived with more money than sense and was arguing constantly about f' all....
It was Tara' apartment
@dramagramatales3145 33:38 it's Pams apartment it even says so.
Love Ruth my favourite hotel inspector she is hilariously witty, snappy and knowledgeable
right!!! the other lady isnt the same!! i have to watch ruth!
same here
And a skawky voice and a foul mouth
YOu're a bag. lol. SOrry couldn't resist.
But I don't think it was okay for her to call the older woman an "old bag"
The mother needs to let go!
It's a glorious tudor style building on the outside!
No dear, Herbert Baker 1900s!!!!!
Ruth is so sharp and on the ball here.
The rooms are so dated. Tara is right that an update is needed.
See I'm the opposite. I love history, antiques, historical fashion ext. So, when I stay in a historical home/hotel I want to be surrounded by period items and feel like I'm stepping back in time. My problem with this hotel is it couldn't stick to one period plus it's an edwardian home decorated mostly Victorian which drives me bonkers
Same @@casie1124
If you want that style, go live with your granny. When I go to a hotel I want it looking modern and fresh.
@@Kat-mu8wq nah you're not the hotel owner you don't get to decide how someone else's hotel looks
The mom is just in the way… She needs to just retire and get out of the way. She’s the definition of ‘old bag.’
12:52 when she walked through the wall instead of the open door cracked me up 🤣 maybe my sense of humor is just wack
Were u high 😂😂😂
@ sadly no i just like the little things in life lol
@@alexthiele5032 hahahah good for U. I am the same 😁 just high on life lol 🤣 xx
I couldn’t sleep in that room,with all the flower patterns,borders,frills,swags,patterns and furniture.I’ve got a headache just typing it all…
she was really enjoying the new tub😏
Beautiful house like that and it looks tacky inside.
I'm glad Ruth said 1982 style because thats exactly what I was seeing -- a 1980's version of victoriana, which just reminds me of a barbara Cartland version of Victoriana. The odd part is are they going for Victorian or Edwardian?
Another strategy is to find one thing old Mom is solely responsible for, be it a garden feature , or outdoor sittingbarea, complete with budget
When Tara said her time was valuable, her mums look screamed that she didn't feel it was true, Pamela thinks she is the ultimate owner, and manager, she will not relinquish control and is crippling her daughter.
okay.. I'm not far in.. but WTF is up with those maids outfits? I felt like i'd accidentally switched to a 70s prono for a second there!
That's what the maid outfits look like in the Edwardian. Which that's when the building was built for King Edward's mistress
Wait til you get to the jacuzzi at 38:56 😂
@@zahrac7876 : I tried to, but then she spoke, which put me off my stroke.
@jerseyboondocks except edwardian maid uniforms were long
@@Iera_Thaumaturgy : Not in the videos i've been watching
The daughter picked the wallpaper that nearly matched the dining room.
Beautiful hotel run by people with no experience in interior decorating.
I need more Ruth! Please upload more Ruth! ❤❤❤
Yes Ruth and the Walpole hotel in Margate. It's still run by the same lady/family and great to visit. I can't find the original program on the listing here
thats why i never took over my fathers carpentry business, we would have come to blows, you can't have 2 people in charge
I can’t believe they put 38:58 on tv 😂🎉
Omg I was like that’s so random!!!
Didn’t you hear Ruth say a couple of F-bombs? And this episode was in 2006. That was on their local U.K. t.v. station, unless the f-bombs were bleeped out on t.v. then, but only heard on this video. There has been more explicit things on t.v. Lol
Poor bloody staff dressed up like its the 1800s
Now how is that? Poor staff that really go along with the aesthetic of the hotel. It makes the hotel look more fancy
@Jerseyboondocks sorry miss Marple
@@Jerseyboondocks It is in such incredibly bad taste to make staff of any kind dress like servants, regardless of the historical accuracy (barring actual historical reenactments, where actors are paid to portray characters). I would be completely put off by this and feel very uncomfortable. It comes across as tacky and demeaning, and definitely not "fancy."
I’m hating the ways the beds are made and styled
even 20 years ago
Pamela is one of the most irritating people ever! Her milky high pitched voice and her inability to see another point of view is so frustrating! She needed to let go.
I found the daughter immensely fake and irritating
Mum must be 80. A daughter who looks to be in her 30s... Such a gulf to bridge.,
Miracle birth?
She seems more like the grandmother
Oh ruth you got this fight for positive change ❤
The mum needs to let Tara get on with it.
I wonder what Pam would be like with a Manager who is not her daughter.
Exactly the same me, bloody old bag!
Pam would have been the same. And the managers would come and go one after the other.
What a beyond-awful, excruciating and toe-curling relationship to watch ….. and both their styles were bad … Pam’s was granny chic and Tara’s was beyond bland
I'm shocked this show was filmed in 2006. That's nuts. How do they survive?
'Withdrawing room' ???? Excuse me 😂😂😂😂😂😂
They need to hire a professional hotel designer.
Are those wine racks right next to the fireplace?? Yikes!
"IT'S AVOCADO YOU ****!!!"
The “withdrawing” room?
It’s called the withdrawing room. Drawing room is derived from it.
It's no longer in their hands. The daughter left, mother then retired and sold it. Maybe it was for the better.
I love the Victorian and all the other historical styles tbh
2 min into watching this and im already catching myself saying yuckkkk every few seconds lol
Tara looks like an American actress I’ve seen before or she looks similar to a younger Holly Hunter. Tara made crack up calling Ruth a crafty cow! It must be a British way to say, you sneaky b-! Lol 😂
Alex Polizzi would have been SO fab....😢
Painting bricks is sacrilege!
No it's not, some bricks are just ugly
Bricks made during this period of early mechanical packing are not as dense as traditional hand packed bricks but don’t have the moisture control of modern bricks so water ingress issues are common. Painting is an easy way to resolve this. But I agree it really ruins the appearance.
Pamela is grandma not mum to Tara. There is no way she is young enough to be mother to a 20 / 30 something. She has got to be at least 70.
Pamela has the habit of saying 'we' eg 'we need to do so and so' 'we need to agree' etc. Actually for her, there is no 'we' it is all 'I am right and no-one is going to tell me different'. Annoying person.
Lol what was that rose petal strewn jacuzi scene 😂
Ruth calling that lady 'an old bag'!!!!
Love Ruth has had tables set correctly for a change. ❤❤❤❤
That place is so pretty
41:40 How was she given the same soup bowl again and nobody said anything?
Why was it fine the second time?
yeah... weird
It’s great to see flat screen t.v.’s (from 2006) in the renovated rooms. Every time I’ve seen an episode video of this show and with Alex Polizzi, all the television sets are over thirty years old and too small. Hmm 🤔
Those high-pitched voices are unbearable
Guess the two brothers threw in the towel!
Wonder what it’s like now there’s new owners.
I can’t stand the thought of having a bathtub in the bedroom! Give me a spacious walk-in shower and a proper sink, with a normal tap - not one for hot and another one for cold water?? Nobody else in the World does that.
English people like to have a bath and the historic nature of the hotel. The taps are typical post war taps. Saying all that, I pulled out my bath when I renovated recently.
One tap for cold and another hot, nobody else does that? That's news to this well traveled American who has one tap for cold and one for hot in 2 of the houses we own, including a bathroom we remodeled this year.
@ Why? I’ve lived in 18 countries and travelled in 54, and have never seen it! It means you can never wash your face or your hands in warm water, because the hot tap is too hot - you have to use cold only! If Russia, Turkey, Morocco, China, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Bulgaria, Romania and every other European country can manage a blender tap, why on Earth can’t you??
I thought everyone had separate hot and cold taps. We do in australia
@ Nowhere I have been, except the UK! Look up blender taps.
daughter speaks exactly like her mother. same voice!
What is with the mirror over the bed in the newly made over room
a great naughty detail 😜
oh so ruth doesn't like being called madam, then goes on to call a woman darlin'.?
madam is an old lady term, no one would like it
@@Ohhhwehere And darlin' can come across as condescending.
Ma am was what the Queen chose
She absolutely did ! I fell over that too .
Tara, what a beautiful lady. Greetings from Australia.
A gap in the market…. Social emotional awareness within change management specializing in family businesses
It's making my toes curl in embarrassment! So tacky, with this ludicrous idea it's some how 'posh'! The Edwardian Banquets take people back in time??? Quite possibly, but to about 1973 not 1900!
We have castles in Ireland 🇮🇪 that do them really well
her mom made me genuinely angry
Stackars personalen som måste jobba i dessa kläder.
And that kind of behaviour of this mom is so annoying that everyone starts to think that maybe it would be better without her in general and wish her to disappear.
38:55

-cameraman maybe probably
that old bat needs to retire and Tara needs a crash course in style & decore 😂😂
Wow. Ruth and Pamela are both really beautiful women.
Minor point I know, but you dont serve food with your thumbs in the plate.
if i run out of uploads, we're gonna have a problem hotel inspector youtube channel
Just my opinion and maybe im the odd man out and influenced by being a history nerd BUT if I'm going to stay in a historical house/building/hotel i dont want the furnishings, decor, ext to look modern. I want them to be period. That being said this being an edwardian home decorated victorian would drive me mad being a history buff lol
Agreed; but then again, I'm also a history nerd :)
i loved the hotel as it was before ruth arrived.
Sometimes you get thick skinned, stubborn or stupid staff who need Fuxxing swearing at. especially in the Hospitality business. There are no table manners back of house! If you have worked there you will know what I mean! lol It can make Ramsey look tame sometimes.
If you have to swear at your staff you’re either not a good manager or your staff should of been let go a long time ago
@holliedollie799 your not in the real world of hospitality.
@@adeaston6553 when you debase our language we debase ourselves ... gutter language is NEVER acceptable, real world or not 😔
It's my language to sweetie Iv'e been in hospitality for 25 years and can tell you that back of house language is very colourful and very different from front of house language. in particular the things that are said about difficult customers.
You have never worked in busy Hotel kitchen then.
Wow beautiful it’s NOT.... Another nursing home?? 😂😂😂
This episode needed Alex!
You get used to Ruth's style and start appreciating her!
@ coming back to say this is true! 😂
She would’ve ripped her hair out
Chicken liver pate is not a skill😂😂😂😂😂😂
As much as the building is beautiful, the rooms are just vile. It screams “we think we’re oh so posh because we have a lot of money “ , tacky and dated without being warm, homely or elegant. The mum does my head in 😂, always making faces with her high-pitched voice and posh accent, she comes across as awful especially with her daughter, which she constantly belittles and makes us feel like she clearly thinks she’s not good enough. She seems to think it’s her daughter’s fault that the hotel is sinking, failing to see it’s her micromanagement that creates confusion and eventually people run away. Pam is stuck in the 70s and thinks she’s quite something, it seems. Her daughter deserves some acknowledgement, and keeping on referring to “the board” as if it’s not just her children who haven’t managed to talk some sense into this lady seems arrogant, giving themselves important titles, feels ridiculous to me. I can see why Pam is extremely involved, though and why it’s difficult to delegate, especially with family, but sometimes you really need to take a step back. I hope they have improved their relationship. It seems like everyone is frustrated and nobody manages to walk in the other’s shoes, properly.
What's with the 'stuffed animal Dog' at the end of each bed ? Tacky !!!! : (
I love ruth!!! Lol
Old bag sums it all up! What a nightmare for the daughter! The rooms are so out of date. Making the servers wear those awful frocks is atrocious!
Pamela is a completely overbearing tyrant. She either needs to sack her daughter and take full control, or totally take a backseat- the way she shouts at Tara is unprofessional at best. Glad it's changed hands and hopefully they have made-up.
"The lantry manor hotell, steeped in romance and history. King Edward 7th buildt it for his mistress" .... so he buildt it for the one he had an AFFAIR with. He was beeing unfaithfull. Yeah, that romantic for sure. But then again, fit monarchs...
When you say" profits of ninety thousand" are these net profits? Or gross? Did you remark, in the dining -room;, Lily Langtry's motto? Translated from the Greek it says "They say? What do they say? Let them say what they want", thereby thumbing her nose at those who criticised her as the KIng's mistress.
Okay the 3rd wave feminism of not wanting to be called madam… like actually my pronouns are sweet / heart
Pamela confusing Victorian with Edwardian. Hmmmmm!!!😮
I can't watch the rest I have a headache
Mum butt out.
As with all these kitchens, every show, little hygiene. Head covering essential. No-one allowed in said place without! UK has rules and regs. 😂😂😂
I like Ruthie..no one better disrespect her!
Whut is that bathroom
I didn't buy it to resell, I bought it kislux to own and wear. And to be honest, they look so similar, I'd rather buy a fake kislux .
Whats England's thing with teddy bears????
I feel like Ruth Watson owes us all money for therapy with this one. This family are all nuts.
That's what a narcissistic mothers does for you. Both sons the scapegoats, daughter the golden child.
THE CHINTZY LOOK IS BEAUTIFUL. MODERN IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT JUST COZ ITS MODERN 😢
Obv still in the 60's Laura Ashley warp😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fu*K must mean a different bloody thing in England.
