I'm sure they would be well aware but not sitting in an editing room with the director and editors ( I work in film and tv ). There would have been concept meetings and production meetings of how the format of the show would go . In ETTCDIY, the script for Dicks narration made almost all the chateau owners sound stupid or always completing a task " just. in time " for guests to show up, also they would come to film their few minute segments when the work was already done by the chateau owners.

Yes, it's exactly that; they are off to an antiques fair and there will be another vlog where they'll be loading up with all their purchases. SJ thinks Le Mans is the nicest town in France and she would like to live there!
Thank your lucky starsA
Ahhhh! The Horror!I may have been specifically blocked by Ma Petherick on Facebook. I don't see that "Escape to...." page that she posted that, nor can I find any posts she has made. I laughed at 1, just 1, comment in a post last week and I have been eradicated.
Whatever will I do?
She is worse than Brenda for having a trigger finger. If it's any compensation I didn't want to go on fb to look.
Bloody brilliant and scarily accurate, I am sure.
How did you get that report? Curious!
I agree with that, I didn't enjoy listening to the script at times, as felt some of the owners really worked hard. The ' last minute bit' always made me laugh. They would have filmed in blocks before moving on.
I was thinking of Manuel in Fawlty Towers! So many similarities between several chateaux and Fawlty Towers!
Oh God, they’re both horrendous! But I’m going to give major points to anyone who willing wore a terry cloth jumpsuit in the 70’s, hopefully the material was good at wicking up sweat.Now, I have seen it all!
But the real question is, who wore it better?

Philip just looks like he’s getting ready to snake someone’s drain, that or he already did and glued the removed drain hair to his head.
You mean, she is no longer Doing It Herself, but Letting Everyone Else Do It.....
thanks he’s doing amazing -he’s youngI hope your partner has now recovered. That's a heavy operation
I'm wondering if I could pull off that look?Now, I have seen it all!
But the real question is, who wore it better?

yeah that stuff seemed awfully canned-sad but it’s all just BS isn’t it
It’s on Social Blade, a site accessible to the public. Just type in the channel name and look at the stats, gains/losses, projected subs and earnings.
They were actually very clever. They never suggested they did all the work themselves. They openly admitted they used volunteers. They just made sure that they did not share the limelight. Volunteers and employees kept very much in the background and their Success Stories never delved into. No chat or speculation or distraction. D&A and family were front and centre at all times. They are multi millionaires but careful not to flash the cash. Their holidays will be discreet, much of their wealth concealed. They have to remain likeable and relatable to the viewers - who would lose interest if they did not believe they could emulate them, even in their dreams.
I actually know that one-strangely because I watched on PBS (I think) after being a huge Monty Python Flying Circus fan in my high school days-every blue moon I‘ll watch an episode
MOAR PJ/MP slash.
PJ shows up at Begmania in his blue ladies' jumpsuit. MP sticks his fingers down the back of the neck to inspect the label. If it's Louis Vuitton, Le Col or even Lulu Lemon he will let PJ play with the Aga and the Spode tea cannisters.
If it's Top Shop or Monoprix, MP strips PJ to his thong and makes him clean the bathrooms in big pink rubber gloves, with floral cuffs, with totally inefficient natural/organic cleaning fluids in time to old Sylvester tracks. Wearing a vintage Hermes kerchief Rosie the riveter style.
You make me feel.
Mighty real.
When I started watching ETTCDIY, this is when the tables turned for me liking Dick and Angela and started to look into more about them and figured out about the Pethericks being dropped because of the artwork issue. It's all a big mess and I don't think that they are innocent but also don't think that Michael or his family handled it all well at all either.
Wait she really asked for 5,000 for her BOYFRIENDS car?! These people really know no bounds!
I usually agree with all you say. But I cannot agree with this. D&A are in a class of their own. They are television presenters. They are seasoned professionals and I believe they work very hard and are paid accordingly. Sure, people can donate if they want to these self made millionaires, but they do not beg. They have made a career for themselves and actually, I do not grudge them a penny. And no, I am not, before anyone suggests it, Angel.
