I went on a cruise of the Greek Island in April this year and thoroughly enjoyed it. She obviously made it before all the financial troubles erupted. Also Greece is now very expensive with many empty shops. I did sort of enjoy the programme, not sure about Joanna though. I found the part with Nana singing very embarrassing.

Just finished watching this, I love Greece, and quite like Joanna Lumley doing these sort of things. What fantastically beautiful places she`s been to, mostly the real Greece, rather than the tourist trail. I was disappointed that they didn`t linger a little longer at Olympia, it`s 24 years since we were there, I`d have liked to have seen a bit more of it after all these years. Will look forward to the next episode.
