I watched it on catch up after reading this thread.

Typical British slappers abroad if you ask me.

It's the kids I feel sorry for, being fobbed off whilst Mommy goes and gets a seeing to from some random turkish waiter. Then openly talking about it the next day around the kids. Then have the audacity to moan about the lad sulking up in the room - and you wonder why the lad had a sewer mouth at the age of 11, there's no hope for the poor lad being bought up with her/them as a role model/s.

Made me laugh the old blonde trying to tell her Daughter off for doing the exact same thing as she'd done.

Can't really blame the Turkish men, if the women are that thick to offer themselves up on a plate to them and honestly believe that they're the ONLY girl, they're hardly going to refuse free jiggy jiggy are they ??

Well Victoria b , i quite agree with you, icmeler has its fair share of womanising turkish men.Of which i personally know one or two of them.haveing said that i also know a lot of really genuine turks,some of which i have lent over a £1000,00 to and i have been given every penny back on my next visit and more!
I blame the so called naieve women myself im sorry thats my opinon,why do they think that at 60-70 they are joan collins and the turkish lads at 20-30 love them! lets get real ladies think about it ok!

I have just watched this programme and agree with a lot of comments on this thread.
I felt sorry for the boy who couldn't have enjoyed his holiday watching his mum and sister acting so cheap , disregarding how young or old they are, what kind of message is this behaviour sending out to him?
If they wanted to do that sort of thing they should have gone alone.

When I say I go to Turkey every year people always make comments because of what they read in magazines etc, this show does not help Turkey one bit .

I go with my husband every year and have always been treated with respect.

The programme also focussed on the same thing in the Dominican Republic. I don't know but I bet this kind of thing goes on in most holiday destinations but it seems Turkey is the place that gets the bad press.

I was able to watch it a few hours before the link expired, phew!

Wow, what a way to portray single, female holiday makers. It's a shame because there are so many people who visit each year without the intentions of those women.

It has to be said, the reputations of Turkish men do not come from nothing though. Many of the men in the documentary were exactly how a number of them are in Icmeler towards single women, though we must remember that a proportion of the women are also like the women in the documentary!

It was interesting to watch.
