DVD Description
Fresh from its win for Best Comedy at the National TV Awards, Benidorm is back! Expect the unexpected with more outrageous fun in the sun for the Solana regulars and some new faces too!
Gavin has returned to the Solana but this year without Troy. Instead he’s brought with him his deliciously camp employee from back home, Kenneth. But will his appetite for the all- you –can- eat buffet and his taste in colourful hot pants prove too much for Gavin?
There’s cross-dressing confusion at the poolside bar with Les, whose son Liam has arrived in Spain, determined to find a holiday romance. Donald and Jacqueline, Benidorm’s King and Queen of the swingers, are back and always looking to make new friends by the pool.
So, kick off your flip flops, and enjoy a slice of life on the Costa Del Comedy!

I didn't start watching Benidorm until the christmas special was on tv,but ever since then i have watched and bought all the series,the reason i love this show is everytime i watch it i laugh and on ocassions have cried,very sad when mel died,there isn't many programmes that make me laugh everytime i watch them and believe me i watch this alot and never get bored with it,Derren Litten the writer is brilliant and i hope he continues with this series,i loved Johnny Vegas in it,the only character i didn't like was Liam,when series 4 started i couldnt get into it mainly because it had changed with new characters,i cant wait for this to come out on dvd and series 5 and 6 and 7........

The long awaited series four of Benidorm finally arrived back on our screens early in 2011 hot on the heels of a Christmas special that had ended on a bit of a cliffhanger.
This series comprising six 50 minute episodes brings the series back into it's usuall fold. The transission between the third and four series saw some significant cast changes. This series sees the introduction of several new characters who really do prove their worth by the end of the series.
The cross dressing Les/Lesley Marshall is given a bar job at the Solana and we are introduced to his dimwitted son Liam (Adam Gillen) who spends most of the series trying to impress newcomers Natalie Jones (Kathryn Drysdale) and Sam Wood (Shelley Longworth) - two 20 something girls who are enjoying a bit of carefree fun in the sun at the Solana. Gavin Ramsbottom returns to the Solana after his absence in the Christmas special - this time round accompanied by his overweight equally camp hairdressing employee Kenneth (played by the excellent Tony Maudsley). Troy is absent most of the series but returns in the final episode to be reunited with Gavin after the death of his father. Probably the best of the new characters is Noreen Maltby's new holiday companion - her divorcee daughter Pauline (Geoff's sister) who comes across as a no-nonsense humourless woman. However it is not long before Pauline's weakness is revealed - she is an alcoholic, the fact that their stay is in an all inclusive hotel leads to some ammusing scenes.
As always - the Garveys, the Stewarts, Janey York & Mateo all return again.
This series also sees a few famous faces pop up including Cilla Black, Melvin Hayes and Denise Welsh (as the excellent Scary Mary).
Another excellent series of Benidorm. Can't wait to the fifth series in 2012!

At first it is difficult to get used to several new characters as you keep comparing to the high standards of the first 3, however I have increased my star rating from 3 to 4 after watching the complete DVD. It really is quite clever. Michael has grown into his part and is now a good little actor. The addition of Les' one time butler as the cross dressing, roller skating barman adds to the poolside mayhem as does 2 new spunky girls chased by the nerdy son of the cross dressing barman. The series has probably run it's course but if your a Benidorm fan then this is not as disappointing as some reviews make out.
