Love this series. Back next Sunday

tho the rich families who own their own business etc - I hope they don’t do the usual ‘free training’ to the poorer families and then get them to start their own companies

And new teeth as well

And a laptop

They got some really nice things for them

purpleme12 · 18/04/2026 21:10

And yes of course the 'poor family' go on for a holiday and money to spend

And I don't blame them really

If I was the type who didn't mind being on Tele (I'm not) I might too!

Blondeshavemorefun · 18/04/2026 21:34

Guess I could spend £2k quite easily

Oh you definitely can!

E9 tonight

millionaire boutique hotel owners who live in luxury at their beautiful business swap with cash strapped family struggling to make ends mate but want to run a MUSIC

So I’m guessing they’ll be given many thousand to start the music café

The poor family - mum seems really ungrateful to pay for an air b and b

OnTheBoardwalk · 19/04/2026 21:40

Not sure how the hotel fits into all this

i'll be back tomorrow

Greyblankie · 19/04/2026 22:09

Funny isn’t it, in every episode as soon as the poor family get their hands on money … it becomes apparent why they are “poor”.

Ok so I wouldn’t have wanted to stay in that hotel either but the huge airb&b they chose … excessive and pointless

10 lobster tails for 3 people?

As always the poor people are poor due to poor choices.

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 22:28

So do the rich family actually live in the hotel then?

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 22:41

Do the rich family really live in the hotel and have individual rooms each so nowhere to hang out together as a family or their own kitchen? Surely not?

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 22:44

They only open the hotel at functions and weekends

Weird

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 23:13

Why can't the children be in their pyjamas?
It said earlier the hotel only opens on weekends so on most of their stay they would have been able to.
Why can't they go get a drink or make a sandwich
There's no way that if the rich family live at this hotel they wouldn't be able to get a drink or a sandwich and if they can then the poor family can too

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 23:14

The rooms in the hotel where the rich family live don't seem very luxurious though

purpleme12 · 19/04/2026 23:18

Also why do the rich family say they're so crazy busy if they only open on weekends?

Blondeshavemorefun · 19/04/2026 23:21

im Just starting this. For once it seems the rich /hotel aren’t promoting their business as such

not sure why poor family so poor if both I. Fulltime work

will watch rest at next feed

Really strange one tonight

And Milo was the only one out of the children who got anything

I think that perhaps the 'poor' family expected to have a luxurious holiday (which I don't blame them for because that's why people go on here I'm sure) but tonight's accommodation wasn't the norm compared to usual.

RosesAndHellebores · 20/04/2026 07:45

I quite liked the fact that the "rich" family didn't give quite so much on a plate. I can see that only one child got a leg up but I was also unclear on what the other dc's aspirations were.

The "poor" family seemed to live pipe dreams and to have over protected their DC which cannot be good for their resilience. Bullied at school, move, unhappy at school - home school. If you don't have money for tutors/home schooling, you go to school, it's free. Also if there is so much debt, as a bus driver, why wasn't the dad throwing an extra shift? Why wasn't the mum doing a bit of catering on the side?

Musical dd annoyed me a bit. DD is musical, trained voice musical, (admittedly that took extra curricular lessons) so has more than a nice/good voice. She does a few paid wedding solos, and has a full-time, professional job - she's bloody good but for most people, even with talent and trained voices, earning a living from it is fantasy land.

They were both nice families but if you are skint, you can't be precious and what good comes from renting an expensive house because your children want to loll in their jimjams. Diddums. Those dc weren't being prepared for life's harsh realities despite having little money at home. The "rich" dd will graft because she's always seen graft. What will the poor house kids do when someone at work tells them to raise their game?

Greyblankie · 20/04/2026 08:05

The musical DD was clearly the favourite - the other girl got fuck all. Her face when the golden child opened her new laptop 😱

purpleme12 · 20/04/2026 08:17

Yes I noticed they didn't give anything which will come to anything long term. Which I thought was fair enough cos yes I think they probably wouldn't use it

OnTheBoardwalk · 20/04/2026 09:43

Hmmm still not sure about this one

what do the rich family do when the hotel isn’t open at weekends and for functions? Do they not see each other then? Apart from the holiday and paying for the singing is that all they did for the other family?

And rather than spending £1,400 on the Airbnb they could have treated all the children

purpleme12 · 20/04/2026 12:29

They gave the poor family a day out at the zoo and a VIP concert during the programme.
At the end yes they gave them a holiday in London all together and paid the girl for the singing gig and said the family could use their hotel sometimes for the 'theatre/singing cafe' (so presumably just a room or something like that did in the programme.

purpleme12 · 20/04/2026 12:29

But yes last night's felt odd to me too

I also thought a lot of the things you thought

Blondeshavemorefun · 20/04/2026 12:49

OMFG. Just seen the rest

they couldn’t cope with a few days in the Hotel. Surely they can all be downstairs together in pjs in the 4/5 week days they hotel isn’t open

so wasted £1.2k on a large air b&b

stupid silly family. You can under stand why so much in debt as mad silly choices

I really liked the rich dad/family. They went into it with their all and dad even busking to earn some money

Why’s aren’t beards made to cover up with a hair net

an why when doing their music cafe neither had hair nets on making the food
