Last night, there was an episode of Four in a Bed on (where B&B owners visit other B&Bs - and rate them). I’m sure other people might know of the show.
One couple complained to the B&B owner because they saw a spider in their room. The B&B was out in the countryside, by the way.
If people really think the appearance of ONE spider warrants a complaint, they should examine their life choices. I’d be the first to complain if a B&B room was covered in cobwebs, but come on, ONE spider?!
I clean my living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom thoroughly. Like a lot of people, I’m talking floor wipes, toilet cleaner, vacuuming, etc. And yet I *still* see a spider now and again. Spiders do what spiders do.
The B&B owners who complained said that if a B&B owner is doing their job properly, there shouldn’t be spiders in a room. What?! You can’t stop creatures doing what they want. Sure, if your B&B bedroom was filled with cockroaches and fleas, that might be on you, but a lone spider will go where it wants to go.

Last night, there was an episode of Four in a Bed on Sounds like a title for an Amish Polygamist Romance Novel

I went to a wonderful B&B in the late 90s, best vacation I ever had, and there was a small spider in the room. I left it alone, it wasn't bothering me.

LOL. This is the official description for the show, via Channel 4: That reminds me of this really boring show that I'd watch on a channel called Dabl, waiting for a rerun of the American iteration of Kitchen Nightmares to come on
Basically three or four women who didn't know each other would attend each other's wedding and then rate them. There was also another wedding show that came on where people would talk about what went into planning their weddings and how much they would spend on them
I'm not married, never have been, and I get that a wedding is a very special occasion, but it feels like these shows are sucking the magic out of it

Like most "reality television" it was likely scripted that way.

Oh, I know, Slam_Bradley. You’re right. It’s why I laugh at Undercover Boss. Come on, after at least a decade - or more - on the air, do you really mean to tell me that they can still get away with “this person is a graduate doing an entry-level job for a documentary”? COME ON. Surely, someone - by now - would say, “Get out of here! His wig and beard looks fake. I know he’s the CEO.” Unless, of course, NO employee in those companies has ever heard of or watched the show.

That would suck the fun out of it. Who on earth cares what other people think of your wedding?

I remember years ago, in the earlier days of reality tv, reading an article about a show of this kind that I forget the name of now, but the idea was something like a high school reunion where people who went to the same school get together and interact. One guy that had been cast for it but I think ended up quitting said that they had a complete storyline written for him that had no basis in reality: on the show, they wanted him to have a romance with a girl that he was supposed to have had an unrequited love for back in high school - but it was a girl from another year that he didn't even know.
