Film crew spotted in Benidorm and it leaves sitcom fans with same theory

Rumours are circulating in Benidorm that something exciting is happening – and it's all about the TVshow of the same name. The last series of Benidorm aired in the UK in 2018. For those not in the know, Benidorm is a sitcom that focuses on the adventures of a group of British holidaymakers staying at the Solana holidayresort in Spain.

Back in April, fans started speculating that the show would be making a comeback, despite the fact that the creator, Derren Litten, confirmed in 2019 that the tenth series would be the last. But when a TikToker spotted a film crew in Benidorm, he jumped to the conclusion that they must be filming the elusive 11th series.

Harry, a Brit in Benidorm who posts on TikTok as @harrytokky, wrote over the top of a video of a film crew on the strip: "Breaking news. Film crews are filming right now in Benidorm outside the Red Lion".

At the bottom of the video, he penned: "Wait... are they filming Benidorm series 11 right now?! What do you think?"

He showed the camera crew filming, as he gushed: "Holy moly, this is unbelievable". In the short clip, someone in the background could be heard saying they thought it was Benidorm series 11.

However, in the comments, people were sceptical, and one woman even put the rumour to bed with the information she'd managed to get from film crews.

"I doubt they'd film in peak season," a sceptic wrote, but someone shared: "Another 4 weeks until peak season. They film in the 'Solana' with people on holiday there. They just close off one end of the pool".

"They use the tourists as extras in Benidorm, it's well known," another man alleged.

Others shared that it couldn't be Benidorm, because none of the beloved actors could be seen in the video. One fumed: "Not hard to tell if it's Benidorm or not."

And another penned: "Not to be a Debbie Downer, but Benidorm hasn't officially been commissioned, so unless this is for an announcement ad (which I highly doubt), it's not Benidorm unfortunately".

But someone argued, saying: "Makes sense it would be Benidorm though, cause Darren and all the main cast have been cryptic as f*** lately online trying to hint to the fans about a season 11 coming, wouldn’t talk about it if there was no chance and now this. I’d say it’s likely I can't lie".

However, others said they'd seen the crew themselves and stopped to ask more questions. One tourist claimed: "We were walking down before and my dad asked the light crew. They said they can’t say what it is but it’s a Spanish program!!!!!"

Meanwhile, someone else alleged: "They're making a film, not Benidorm. I asked them last night."

Do you think season 11 of Benidorm will ever happen? Let us know in the comments...
