"Mad Dogs" on Sky TV Feb 10th

[Belladonna]

Perhaps we will see him waving next time!

Pretty sure they were in Magaluf for the nightclub scene. Recognised the Crystal Bar sign as they drove along. No idea of the actual club they were in, may not have even been a real one ofcourse!

If you thought that was scary , wait til Gordon Brown turns up next week !!!!

Sex scene was pathetic IMO , looked like she was bouncing on one of those kiddies big rubber balls , the ones they grip the ears !!!!

Actually Bella, it looked quite near that pad you rented last Sept .

Where were the night scenes shot ? Certainly wasn't Bonys looking at the eye candy on view !!!!

Posts crossed BL re Magaluf for the night shots suggestion!

Did wonder about the La Font area for the villa, there are some stunning properties hidden around there. Will have to study the mountain!

Just out of interest in case I get lost when we are out in may which is Robbies house

 

[liz d]

OMG Robbie Williams has a house near PP and i didn't know about it??? How could this have happened? Is it the amazing house that the ferry to Formentor goes past, hanging over the cliff tops?

I always said that was MY house, i suppose i'll share it with Robbie if i HAVE to.

Watching mad dogs tonight and can't wait!!

More info on Robbie please.......

 

[liz d]

Sorry sorry sorry, just got so excited about Robbie i didn't read the other thread.

Robbie, Ava Gardner, old blue eyes and erol Flynn..........no wonder i feel so at home in PP!!

this is my first entry although i have watched this board for many years and have been going to puerto pollensa for 28 years and this is why i was very dissapointed with the programme as i was hoping to see a lot more of north majorca especially puerto pollensa.i thought it potrayed the area as a gangster area which we know it is not and the action for my family was very dissapointing. it could have been anywhere in spain. i dont think it will do anything for the port.

We've just watched it and although I'd agree (we only watched to see something of the area we'll be visiting) you have to take it as it comes; it's not a travelogue. I think setting it in Mallorca just shows how successful and wonderful Alvo's life is (or seems to be). It could indeed be anywhere glamorous and sunny but then it's not labouring the point that it's Mallorca. In a way it's like The Lord of the Rings, which used New Zealand as a backdrop but had nothing to say about New Zealand.

As a drama I thought it dragged a bit but the ending perked it up and I think we'll watch the next episode.

We started watching it.....but it seemed a bit 'lacking' so we turned it off. However after all the comments we will give it another try.....if only to look out for CD's gorgeous puppy, I'm sure he will have a starring role in one of the episodes

Also, so glad to read of Robbie Williams excellent taste in choosing my favourite beach for his holiday home ..... he probably reads the forum and all the lovely info on here maybe he was influenced by my posting

 

[copper]

Yes its not a travelogue !!

I am sure the action is only just beginning and it appears to have been very well received by the critics I have read I did read the BBC wanted to do it but couldnt afford it and it certainly has some of the biggest "stars" of the small screen on it
Hoping to see more shots of the area in the next few weeks Wish I was there now but the sun is even shining here today !!

 

[BonysLad]

Bear with it Susy,

Quite obvious to me that the " late" Alvo was harbouring " Weapons of Mass Destruction " in the Pollensa area and good old Tone Blair has blown him to kingdom come. Serves the b****r right IMO.

Hopefully it will turn into more of a travelogue as we come to discover where they have been planted . I noticed a suspicious barrel in Bonys last Oct so who knows ???
