Anyone watching that Kevin McCloud programme?

[SwedishEdith]

Missed the beginning - are they living on that island alone? What are the kids going to do when they're teenagers?

I want the practicalities as well. And I don't believe these were that isolated - where were they getting all that wine from and the kids were all wearing Boden? You cannot get all your stimulation just from building a house.

I wondered if they had internet, but since they have a website and a business they clearly do. So plenty of scope for a bit of Boden acquisition (if they ship to Tonga).

Belize tonight. I think the father is going to annoy me. Hope so - no point in watching if they're not annoying.

Just started watching so a few mins behind.

Kevin's travelled half way around the world they could have met him at the last town/road! Expecting to find your way in the dark and the jungle is to much! Unless he was using his satnav on his phone and they kept hat hidden!

The patents are to busy to talk to
Him..... Bizzare

The dad's a poser. It said she was a thesp but Richard is giving off more actor vibes.

The bloke is definitely bizarre.

Their dogs were eaten by jaguars?!? Fuck that shit!

I'd never survive, I couldn't kill a chicken.

Missed a bit - what was that thing they'd built? Was Kevin taking the piss a bit?

I don't buy the we are ordinary people with nothing, no money.

Bollocks

You know they have £££ in the bank. All the people are posh and self involved.

Totally.

Yep the father is definitely a bit odd in a slightly scary way.

Found a website about them

So they go and ferret about in a rubbish dump and Kevin says he's never seen kids like this who go because they want to, get a grip Kevin , they are privileged kids who are here to find pretty bracelets, not trying to earn a pitiful wage for hours of unpleasant work! I don't really believe what us being presented on these programmes cos I think it's all skewed for a good story. I've only seen a short amount but the tone is annoying me.

Bloody hell, all this talk of bloodbath and the kids live in a separate hut.

So sad re the v levels of violence in central America. I backpacked really happily there about 6 yrs ago, and now it is so different, so lawless.

Swedish that's the workaway website it has families all over the world where you get free bed n board for working on the farm/land etc. I wonder if they will mention that in this show?

V strange talk about giving the children a childhood yet it's one of the most dangerous places on earth! Plus he didn't like UK as All about money money money. Yet he has no money and needs to work v hard there so adds up to the same thing? You need money to live on or have resources to provide for yourself surely the stress of filling need is just as bad. Think being one failed crop from destitution would be more stressful!

I wonder what in London they're running away from.

Nah if the crops fail they buy in or go home with the hidden cash.

Ive never really liked Kevin McCloud. He arse licks and, ummm whats the phrase i need? Emm he.... Bullshits. Yes that'll do, he bullshits about the people and how "impressive" or "wow" they are. The dad in tonight's show is full of himself.

Yes, he does give the impression of running away from something. He doesn't give much away really.
