As the group come to the end of their stay at The Real Marigold Hotel in Kochi, have they discovered if it's the perfect place to retire?

As the group come to the end of their stay in Kochi, have they discovered if it's the perfect place to retire? They seem to have found it a positive experience, and Sheila Ferguson has even looked into buying property in the area.

But has their enjoyment been down to the location and mild climate or the fact that they've done so much and embraced communal living? As Amanda Barrie says: 'Look how happy we've been living together'.

And while they've raised serious issues about older people, it's also clear how important laughter is to them. 'Young people take note,' says Bill Oddie. 'Older people can be witty'.
