I went to Benidorm back in 1976. There was nothing Spanish about it whatsoever - more like little Britain with fish and chips and tea like mum makes everywhere you went. The food at the hotel was dreadful. We had green beans in oil as a starter for 4 days running - ugh. I ended up walking into the old town of Benidorm for a couple of days in order to get some decent food which I did. I have never been back since.
The term "Whinging Pom" comes from a the First and Second World Wars when Australian and New Zealand soldiers noticed that British soldiers complained incessantly about their predicament. Rather than facing this hardship in a pragmatic comradery, the "poms" would constantly complain. Hence the saying.
In Australia, during both world wars there was no compulsory conscription for overseas service whereas there very much was so for Brits, so maybe the fact that some were forced to do it made some of them complain more about their predicament than men who had volunteered.
+Alex5000 I have been to Cuba several times and stayed at different resorts. Never had a problem whatsoever. In fact can't wait to go again. Was in Florida for 3 months, I rented this condo, altho it was beautiful where I stayed, I had booked from Dec-March, oh it was cold and rainy. I think we ate at every restaurant in Destin. Never met so many friendly people in my life and sooo clean.
I honestly feel for that family who got stuck in the airport for 20 hours. I can relate to it, my mom, myself and my two cousins were stuck in Newcastle Airport back in 2008 for six hours when we were on our way to start our holiday in Portaventura.
If i go to Havana, i will buy art, go to museums, tour the exciting restoration of old buildings, meet artists, craftspeople, and musicians. That is the true experience, to me. And a way to help the local economy.
Taping windows 0:04 does nothing to prevent hurricane damage. What happens is that the sun comes out bakes the tape on. The tape can not be removed and the tape stain lasts forever. Do NOT tape your windows.
"We felt like prisoners, we sat there and couldn't do anything about it." Sure you can, you can tell the air line to fuck off and you get in your car and go home. I wouldn't want to be on a plane that was found to have engine issues any way!
+SpiritBear12 Half of the planes up there should not be flying. Sitting on the tarmac finally, the pilot told us they were delayed due to major mechanical difficulties. If going to the Caribbean, West Jet and Trans At are the best. British airlines have gone down hill big time.
There are other British airlines that are at least 10 times better than this one: British Airways, Easyjet, Monarch, Flybe and Jet2.com. The only issues I've had with them is the cramped conditions with budget airlines and their turnarounds which are so short they always end up with their last few flights everyday being late but the biggest delay was because of Spanish air traffic control going on their 365 day long strike again.
Even travel agents should know Hurricane season begins September from west Africa going west. No one should vacation in the carribean sept to Nov ever!
My favorite parts are the frogs in the pools in Bulgaria and all of Britannia Airways’ meals being only chicken curry and rice! If I hadn’t found the woman’s account of the curry as her and her family’s only meal at the airport and her flight, I wouldn’t have sworn to this day as a Filipinx-American that I would NEVER EVER complain about having packaged pancit (ramen in Filipinx style) and sandwiches made from the bread and cold cuts served in the continental and complementary breakfasts as most of the meals in my subsequent vacations ever again!!! 😂😂😂
Im going to benidorm in a few hours to the Mediterraneo, lovely hotel nice food beds hotel staff beach everything :) its not all inclusive but its 4 stars!!!
My thoughts exactly. Who goes on holiday to a destination blighted at time when it is blighted by hurricanes? Shame on the travel agency for not having the knowledge or failing to let travellers know.
So, let’s see, the production team even took the old girl in her wheelchair to an airport to get these background shots for this program. 🤷🏻♂️ ? Nevertheless, nice job on the narration to Manuël.
Next time go to a real tour operator, it's more expensive but it might be better... It's the difference of shopping at Harrods and at Primark... God stuff is not cheap...
Wow that would of been awful we had a day delay coming back from Florida to Manchester which I didnt mind and they put us in a hotel that we could never afford in our dreams with a gorgeous meal! guess we were just lucky
by law the airline is supposed to put u up in a good hotel and pay for a meal and not chicken curry,i was delayed for 20 hrs in denmark going to thailand and the danish really took care of us,so i wont be flying brittania air
Moral of this story : Avoid Bulgaria completely, and don't go to Cuba, the Caribbean, Florida etc between May 1st and October 31st, because that's hurricane season. The weather is very hot and it rains almost every day. Hard. It's all also highly likely that you'd experience thunderstorms.
Is it just me (and I can't really explain it myself), but do the people being interviewed sound whilst not exactly 'posher' more articulated in their speech than of today, I mean it is only 20 years ago, yet it could be 50!
The internet and modern TV has removed regional accents. 20 years ago people only really hung around and stuck to their own area, which in England a few miles down the road there's a different accent. Alot of that has died, especially in London as all the small town and regions get merged and congealed together. We've lost alot of individual articulation and mashed together many to make the one we hear now
I think that if you go to Havanna to get to know how the people live there and learn something about the language and history of the place you will have more chance of a worthwhile holiday than those who just go there for the sun and the beach and yes preferably all inclusive where they can shove as much food down their gullets as possible without vomiting and get pissed with the booze "because it is all included in the price we paid".
Watched a stupid television series called Benadorm. I live in South Africa but my sons live in the UK but I remember my Brit friends saying that I must watch it. Gave it a good 3 attempts but didn't get to the end of any. No humour, useless acting but a great sedative Zzzzz
@Carol Morris The programme 'Benidorm' was brilliant because it was funny and entertaining to watch. I absolutely disagree with your comment because I don't think any characters in 'Benidorm' are useless and they were great. Maybe you're probably jealous of characters in 'Benidorm' because you probably can't act. 😂
i dont understand why the are complaining, at least they got out of England for a while. but unless they get gold plated toilet paper for free, they will complain.
I hate faking holiday mazagine from any holiday. Because is holiday mazagine is REAL picture like Barbedro. Then went to visiting holiday... different like a dirty old apartment of hotel??? Is grandmother's died from 2002 because of food poison from holiday. But I don't do that anymore, I done nothing my life. Must be real holiday from date of mazagine each monthly, than weak holiday of the country. Is totally sick of that TV show of dirty holiday to show on something going on down there!
"yeah,thought I'd go somewhere exotic sounding.bloody nightmare, nobody is fluent in English,the food was different,the weather was different too.and the money.so I packed up my rubber gloves ,HP sauce , Tetley tags racing post.and decided to leave the resort.only to find the paddy's palms Irish bar, next door.,bingo on Monday,." try buttlins it's nearer to the end of the runway.dont forget your darts.
The 1st flight they couldn't get the engines going the 2nd flight was aborted & there was a loud bang to be honest I don't think I would want to get on a 3rd flight I wouldn't feel very confident about their aircraft
The best thing that ever came out of Cuba are the old Chevys that Americans left there in 1958 Everything else is a piece of shit Fidel did an awesome job didn’t he
In the first one you go to Bulgaria in the second one you go to a Cuba. ---- is there something wrong with you British ? When 90 miles north you have Miami
I'd rather stay in my own country, drive to a nice resort/hotel a few hours away. Travel, especially overseas travel, is horrendous these days, not relaxing like it used to be, just one uncomfortable and nerve rattling happening after the other. I actually think the airlines and most countries have contempt now for tourists and seem to go out of their way to just get as much money from you as they can and then turnaround and make your life just as miserable as they can.
I started travelling overseas 5 years ago and its the best!! Was treated amazingly in all countries!! Maybe its becauseim Australian? Ironically England was my least favourite country to visit. Too cold and the food was awful!
You see and hear this over and over again. Have you holiday in your own town. Get a good hotel room and eat in the best restaurants. You will not spend as much money as you would leaving the country. And you will have a wonderful time. Everyone will think toy are
I feel so sorry for these people who had undoubtedly worked hard to save for that perfect holiday just to have it completely messed up due to the incompetence of the tour operators. I just hope that these poor soul were completely reimbursed.
I think i am abnormal, as i have really no desire to travel overseas. I sure would love to do a U.S. car road trip or two. Go to roadside attractions and folk art environments, like whirligig gardens and houses made of bottles, etc.
If you will choose CUBA you are looking at a poor country.They can't help the weather.Read about the flying problems.You can read about problems daily.Its so funny they always complain.
I have never been as unfortunate or in as much bad luck at these. Only in 02' a hurricane was blowing in amsterdam so i was stuck in detroit. But NWA and KLM kept their word and we got home after. Had to lose a transfer with Sas once, they acknowledged their fault but would not cover extras so i went to a specialist and got more than what my ticket cost.

The older woman description of the chicken curry is hilarious, I feel so bad for them but I can't help but laugh

1:17 If a guy in a South Park shirt tells you how bad things are, you're doing something EXTREMELY wrong.
Please bring these programmes back, they help keep all travel agents on the ball. It should not just be left to 'Watchdog' now.
Surely spending 23 hours in a British airport is preferable to 23 hours in Benidorm!
I went to Benidorm back in 1976. There was nothing Spanish about it whatsoever - more like little Britain with fish and chips and tea like mum makes everywhere you went. The food at the hotel was dreadful. We had green beans in oil as a starter for 4 days running - ugh. I ended up walking into the old town of Benidorm for a couple of days in order to get some decent food which I did. I have never been back since.
The chicken curry looks like them microwavable meals you can get from Iceland. LOL
It probably was. Lots of businesses claim they made something, as if from scratch, but in reality they bought it from the local supermarket.
NOT STICKY PUDDING IN MY TEXT CONTEXT
Watching the chicken curry people makes me nostalgic for the 90s. Flying on Britannia, smoking indoors, nobody staring at mobile phones.
The term "Whinging Pom" comes from a the First and Second World Wars when Australian and New Zealand soldiers noticed that British soldiers complained incessantly about their predicament.
Rather than facing this hardship in a pragmatic comradery, the "poms" would constantly complain.

Breen Whitman Not this pom though. Hahahaha
In Australia, during both world wars there was no compulsory conscription for overseas service whereas there very much was so for Brits, so maybe the fact that some were forced to do it made some of them complain more about their predicament than men who had volunteered.
Sunny Delight, Kappa Jackets and microwavable Iceland chicken curry 🍛... This is so 1999 it hurts!!!!
You can't yell at somone for a hurricane lol

Who's watching this during the pandemic in 2021? I am :)
I feel like a curry now
me too
what businesses say when they f--- up :: 'sorry for the inconvenience'.. but they have your money and they're not giving it back
Kate Quinn Under the EU regulations that would be a very different story. Massive compensation and hotel accommodation.
I love the narrator humor
I really want a chicken curry 😄
Omg you need to put the subtitles on for this video when the lady talks about chicken curry 😂😂
So funny, so funny, so funny, I so i enjoyed the laughs...maybe they could get another week free to make up for the hurricane???
I love a bit of Checkin Coohray.
If i go to Havana, i will buy art, go to museums, tour the exciting restoration of old buildings, meet artists, craftspeople, and musicians. That is the true experience, to me. And a way to help the local economy.
chicken curry for breakfast and dinner lucky cow
Brittania Airlines: If your flight is having problems, we've got it sorted out. With chicken curry.
I could eat chicken curry any time...mild of course.
I love Chicken curry ..............
@@kris0369 it's crap it's a way of disguising chicken that is bad or Rancid + rice that's old and stale
Haha at least I feel better about not being able to go away this year
Off season holidays.
Ahh when holidays were cheap for a reason lol you get what you play for.
Oh god Benidorm you couldn’t pay me to go there.
Taping windows 0:04 does nothing to prevent hurricane damage. What happens is that the sun comes out bakes the tape on. The tape can not be removed and the tape stain lasts forever. Do NOT tape your windows.
An excellent piece of advice. In fact it makes the glass more dangerous.
love the brits and those gorgeous teeth !!!!
How was Cuba or even here in Cayman supposed to help with a major hurricaine coming in?
"We felt like prisoners, we sat there and couldn't do anything about it."
Sure you can, you can tell the air line to fuck off and you get in your car and go home.
I wouldn't want to be on a plane that was found to have engine issues any way!

Put it down to experience and don't book another holiday until Tripadvisor is invented would be my advice.
*WEYHAY CHICKEN CURRY! FOR BREAKFAST, DINNER & IN FLIGHT*
I adore curry but that was really a bit too much.

Im going to benidorm in a few hours to the Mediterraneo, lovely hotel
nice food
beds
hotel
staff
beach
everything :) its not all inclusive but its 4 stars!!!
Maybe these Europeans should invest in a weather radio and who plans a vacation without checking the weather especially the hurricane forcast
My thoughts exactly. Who goes on holiday to a destination blighted at time when it is blighted by hurricanes?
Shame on the travel agency for not having the knowledge or failing to let travellers know.
23 fucking hours in an airport...
Ok who asked 💀
So, let’s see, the production team even took the old girl in her wheelchair to an airport to get these background shots for this program. 🤷🏻♂️ ? Nevertheless, nice job on the narration to Manuël.
They needed hotels and decent food.
Easy jet gave me a £3 card for refreshments for a 5 hour delay.. £3 in an airport.. got a bag of Haribo. a quid anywhere else
I was actually eating a chicken curry when I clicked on this.....
Next time go to a real tour operator, it's more expensive but it might be better... It's the difference of shopping at Harrods and at Primark... God stuff is not cheap...
A 'tour operated' holiday is always a cheap holiday.
You have obviously never shopped in harrods ......
I had the very same 'Cartoons Kick Ass' South Park T shirt
Wow that would of been awful we had a day delay coming back from Florida to Manchester which I didnt mind and they put us in a hotel that we could never afford in our dreams with a gorgeous meal! guess we were just lucky
Did u have a curry for your meal?
Complaining about a hurricane lmao
roger naughton 🌬
lol chicken curry
AGAIN
QUOTE: Benidorm is the place, you just enjoy it, there's something there for everybody"......Er, no there is not!!!!!
But bless Granny in the wheelchair!!!!
A grown man in his late 30s wearing a south part t-shirt 😅
Why not? Im in my 40's and im wearing a glitter pink unicorn jumper 😂😂
by law the airline is supposed to put u up in a good hotel and pay for a meal and not chicken curry,i was delayed for 20 hrs in denmark going to thailand and the danish really took care of us,so i wont be flying brittania air
That would be nice if some church group helped them fix the place up.the problem with chlorine is it keeps on killing germs after you dispose of it

A western country airline serving curry..??...strange..n at a glance the food don't look appetising. I pity all those people..must be exhausted.😥😩😔
so happy im from canada
I'm happy I'm from America.
sid green have you ever been to America before?
MichaelD8393 have you ever been to Canada before?
I'm going to hell for laughing my tushy off
I just find it hilarious...

Please stop playin this song. Please stop playin this song.
Please stop playin this song. Please stop playin this song.
wow
Check out the World War 2 plane (@0:53 sec) makin a break for it
AHHHHHHHHHHH To exaggerated version of events. Over the top.
They should have gotten a better hotel in Havana. Not all the hotels can be that shit right ? Damn :/.
I think if you book a holiday in the Caribbean at that time of the year you know there is going to be the risk of hurricanes!
Exactly! But they did/do it anyway as it is much cheaper then! I have been to Cuba several times and never had any issue and had beautiful holidays!!
People moan now about Ryanair, their average delay statistics are nowhere close to as bad as Britannia’s used to be 😂
6 days in havana, i love havana, these package whining tourists.
I think that if you go to Havanna to get to know how the people live there and learn something about the language and history of the place you will have more chance of a worthwhile holiday than those who just go there for the sun and the beach and yes preferably all inclusive where they can shove as much food down their gullets as possible without vomiting and get pissed with the booze "because it is all included in the price we paid".
The original Karen’s ? 😉
IDE rather have the curry instead of going Benidorm
I'm surprised they had flights to Bulgaria in 1998, Benidorm is still awful.
This is terrible but pommies looove to complain
You haven't met me then, I never complain. 😎
Chicken curry at 5 in the morning, na cant have that, give me something light like bacon eggs and sausages with a side of mash n beans.
Watched a stupid television series called Benadorm. I live in South Africa but my sons live in the UK but I remember my Brit friends saying that I must watch it. Gave it a good 3 attempts but didn't get to the end of any. No humour, useless acting but a great sedative Zzzzz

Knowing that a hurricane was approaching, the airline should have diverted the plane to a location other than another island in the storm's path.
Airport all over are closed! For safety! Would you rather they got into difficulties in the air?!
Personaly i would have gone home ....sod the holiday.
Applied for refund… then head back home me 😂🤭 one lady I know that waited 6+ hours got £700 quid back.
I’m not sure why people complain about the weather. Who do they expect to fix that?
I only saw people complaining about their situation, the way they were treated
You see and hear this over and over again. Have you holiday in your own town. Get a good hotel room and eat in the best restaurants. You will not spend as much money as you would leaving the country. And you will have a wonderful time. Everyone will think toy are
I know it's been a year but.. what the jesus fuck were you trying to say here?? My head hurts trying to read it
Really no electric, just had hurricane....and they want to visit a hurricane damaged location.
I feel so sorry for these people who had undoubtedly worked hard to save for that perfect holiday just to have it completely messed up due to the incompetence of the tour operators. I just hope that these poor soul were completely reimbursed.

Reminds me of Little Britain for some reason!
If Cuba and Bulgaria are on your “bucket list “, you have the worst bucket list ever!
You can’t really be mad about the hurricane but the disgusting hotel is out of order
I hate chicken curry!
HI MORNING
As much as I miss this time period, I've got to admit this is not World in Action!
I have never been as unfortunate or in as much bad luck at these.
Only in 02' a hurricane was blowing in amsterdam so i was stuck in detroit.
But NWA and KLM kept their word and we got home after.
Had to lose a transfer with Sas once, they acknowledged their fault but would not cover extras so i went to a specialist and got more than what my ticket cost.
Being crafty and thinking fast is a goode trade today
Straight outta Amsterdam...
Give me a holiday in UK any time. I've never flown anywhere and I never want to now.
i feel like am an indian
come to cebu in the philippines its great ive lived here for 16 years now
Easy to see where Catherine Tate got her inspiration for Janice and Ray lol (as in ''the dirty bastards!'').
