Like many have said, he just doesn't cut it when it comes to luxury travel. He was alright at reviewing bog-standard, cheap as chips holiday fare - when you review a £1 burger, saying it is 'tasty' and 'alright for the price' is enough. 'Mmm that's really nice' is not enough to describe lobster and caviar.
He just lacks the knowledge and - honestly - class to review these luxury places. It isn't that they're better or more enjoyable (I used to love taking my daughter to Butlins!) but he's so clearly a fish out of water in them, and I find myself cringing and second-hand embarrassed when I see him in them. He glosses over the Diptyque toiletries because he doesn't recognise the brand, just points out you get a loofah. Orders the eggs Benedict and goes 'aren't there normally two eggs on it' with no other comments. It's clear he's absolutely lost in places like this and it just makes watching painful.
