Just seen this thread so too late to watch today but it seems to be repeated on Sundays at 10.00 pm

We saw it last night, it was quite good, lots of nice views of the Badia de Pollensa and the Badia D'Alcudia, we managed to spot favourite places and views. Showed the two sides of the island very well, Magaluf and its associated problems with alcohol and violence and the more sedate north of the island, as nice way to spend an hour in the bleak midwinter

Didn't you just feel for the poor young lad with the broken jaw!

My son went to Magaluff last year with a hoard of other school leavers.

I'm glad I hadn't seen this programme before he went!

Yes I did, it was a terrible thing to do to someone, but unfortunately that’s life over there as well as here.

I would like to watch this series but unfortunately I cannot find any reference to it on my 'Sky' search. I would be very grateful if somebody could advise what Sky channel I would find it on and what dates & times.

I have tried sws's link but it doesn't give me the info.

Many thanks

not having seen the prog, so dont know if it was + or - for med care in mallorca but from personal exp, my Mum fell over a wall (nae drink involved, honest ! ) and broken her leg on day 3 of a month long holiday and the the hospital in Alcudia was absoltely great ! She was 68 at the time, (it was a wall, then a 10 foot drop onto grass and rocks) and she was a bit traumatised but the hospital staff had her laughing every visit !
(hope this is relevent but if not , sorry ppl ! )
