Sooty – well spotted on the not Eggleston Hall, as I completely missed they were at a different place I will watch out next week.

Fair call on the post-menopausal comment from me. I take note. I suppose I used it to describe their age and attitudes. I know it is a TV show, but the way they abdicate any responsibility of male behaviour. It is the woman’s responsibility to set the limits, the tone etc. Hopefully we have gone beyond that. I think Nicole in last series said it well when it was thought to be ok for an older man to make a lewd comment to the girls. I suspect most of these boys are not aristocrats but from some sort of casting agency.

Anon- it does have Big Brother aspects to this show, when it gets boring send in the booze.

Miss Ladette – I think this will be the last series of the Australian version if it does not fire up

Very upset to see they are no longer at Eggleston Hall. The narrator mentioned the new gaff several times but I’ve forgotten it – Beresford? The decor and paint colour at Eggleston was one of my favourite aspects of watching the show. I still Love Mrs Schrager and her friend the head lady-tamer, Mrs Harbord. They give old bats something to aspire to.

Calling these women ‘post-menopausal’ is a bit much, RR. But then breeders think in those terms, I guess! I would never think of a woman as ovulating or consider it a descriptor.

Not so sure if I like this show anymore as it looks like half of these girls are behaving badly for the benefit of the Show and CRY on cue at their assessment (!!)
They are supposedly the toughest and worst behaved girls in Australia and are completely uncontrollable at home, yet have a flood of tears and remorse when told they behave appallingly by an insipid and matronly woman in England.

Also don’t tell me the young Viscounts, Earls and Lords don’t want to be around these girls ??

Come on now guys are guys, since when don’t they like to be accosted, groped, licked and whatever !

Oh yeah and when you have a group of uncontrollable men crazy girls with drinking problems, you leave them alone with booze and guys (!!)

This show is getting boring !!

Hi Reality Raver-Glad you are covering Ladette to Lady (aka Bogans Abroad).
Felt that this episode was a bit too blatantly contrived. Would love to know how far the girls were encouraged by the producers to misbehave on the bus as it was a bit over the top.

Can’t help but suspect the portrayal of the girls has more to do with the potential UK audience need to feel culturally smug to their antipodean counterparts.

Agree-some would be better off in a twelve step program rather than learning how to make cocktails from the aristocratic bartender. Yep”¦GFC really hurt those trust funds.

Hopefully, one of the girls will tell where Mrs Brewer to go this season”¦

In a parallel universe Mrs Schrager (can’t spell”¦sorry) on Celebrity Masterchef could be fun”¦serving quail eggs to George”¦
