History Series / FourInABed

A Realty TV Game Show produced by Creator/Channel4 , in 2010, originally it ran with a smaller verision called Three in A Bed, but Four ended running on it's own.

** This happened in one of the last episodes, the host had a rather brutal feedback form, she had by this point correctly identified the writer, but accidentally reveals that she first believed it to be one of the other contestants, There was a minor disagreement as she attempted to clarify her reasons for her belief which did nothing but make the scene awkward.

* TurnOffTheCamera: Happens rarely, but in one episode, after one of the guests deduced everyone way too much and resulted in one of the hosts leaving in tears for rating low for incredibly minor things, the results was done in separate rooms in order to calm everyone down. Of course the said "cheating" hosts won, still denying it to the last seconds.
* SleepDeprivation: Many a time on this show you have the guests losing sleep, the reason can be heat related, noise or the bed itself being the problem.
* SmallNameBigEgo: Whenever someone has a claim to fame they ram it down the other competitors throats, or if they are a businessman they will annoy people about having a business-plan; which is impossible in a unpredictable market.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The original two series following Three In A Bed had several differences:

*** This changed in the Third Series of Four when the Feedback form was introduced and in the final Three series it appeared.

* YouJustHadToSayIt: Some people say the wrong thing to impress the other guests only to ruin it on their day.
** Also in one host an older man working with his wife, clearly had a dated sense of humour when entertaining, he came off as Sexist, resulting in the one guest writing about it in the comments, not helped by him calling the smaller breakfast, the women's breakfast.

A Realty TV Game Show produced by Creator/Channel4 , in 2010.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: The original series

* AintNoRule: The show sometimes presents Glamping Sites and Venues that don't even serve breakfast, kinda misses the point. Or else places compete which are built on a larger scale with many rooms and which employ full-time chefs, waiters, housekeepers, porters, receptionists... in other words, not B&B's, but, errr, ''hotels''. That this does not create a level playing field, and like is not being matched against like, is HandWaved by the producers.
* AllThereInTheStinger: Every intro you are given the outline of the show with a little mashup of clips of the episode.
* AudienceReaction: Viewer get angry on Social Media, when they feel that someone has cheated to the point that they overfill the B&B's Trip Advisor with negative reviews.
* BetterOnDVD: The best time to watch Four In A Bed is on the More 4 Afternoon slot where you can watch a week's worth of old episodes it's a guilty pleasure for the UK Viewers.
* BerserkButton: Normally if the ratings are low and/or the hosts fall out due to reviews, the final episode when the comments are read and payments are checked has gone down like a lead balloon.
** Notable examples includes a young man confronting a older couple who wrote in their comments that he treated his B&B as child with a toy which was unnecessary cruel.
** Now in the most recent series, they had accusations of cheating on Social Media by the audiences due to their unfairly low marks.
* CrazyCatLady: There has been pet lovers on the show, most times they have hair everywhere especially on the plates, one old lady decided to make the entertainment about grooming her ill behaved cats and to take the guests to the pet cemetery.
* CordonBleughChef: Averted most breakfasts are decent, but boy it's difficult to get eggs just right.
* DoubleStandard: It seems ironic that for people that take deduce places for lack of a finish or felt the place wasn't up to their standards are the ones that are lacking in their own place.
* FishOutOfWater: Whoever is putting the groups together chooses the B&B's has done it to put the people out of their comfort zones. The best example of this was a basic B&B on a industrial estate, who's target audience was lorry drivers, unsurprisingly nobody wanted to go back for the reasonable reason they didn't see themselves being in the area.

* HeelFaceTurn: Sometimes the polite first host is out to win most times they have a higher score.
* HypocriticalHumor: It's sometimes laughable what people write in their comments or they claim their place is a palace only to turn out they shot themselves in the foot when their place gets worst points.
* ItsAllAboutMe: There is attention seekers on the show from time to time, mainly they are businessmen who chose to do a activity from their other business and eat at their owned restaurants, it's quite sicking when the one of said businessmen, lived in London and could have gone anywhere else.

* MenCantKeepHouse: Many times a male hosted place can slack on the cleaning with disastrous effects on the scores.
* ManipulativeEditing: Well of course there is because sometimes the hosts provide it.
* MyGodYouAreSerious: Some of the strangest things that were a reason to deduce points on this show like the lack of metal beds in a country inn, missing tea and coffee making supplies and of course no Vegetarian Sausages.
* NeverMyFault: There was a episode where the host annoyed the hell out of a female couple which resulted in him calling her a dog which she took offence to. However he refused to see his behaviour as anything more than a joke, but the joke was on him, he ended up in last.
* NeatFreak: Every guest checks their room with a fine tooth comb, finding the odd hair or dust results in a low score, sometimes however they fail to provide a clean place.
* OhCrap: During the one breakfast at this place that promised the best eggs all the state of the art gadgets misbehaved resulting in a row in the kitchen.
** In another episode, one of the breakfast request was for porridge plain with water, however seconds after the guest took a mouthful he spat in horror, he had a Nut Allergy and the porridge was made with it and so he had to go to hospital, the host did apologise but it affected the rest of the judging.
* TurnOffTheCamera: This happened so recent that to not talk about it wrong. After the one place deduced everyone way too much and resulted in one of the hosts leaving in tears for low rating for minor things, the results was done in separate rooms in order to calm everyone down Of course the said "cheating" hosts won still denying it to the last.
