"It's not fair, It's not right... " These Thai cleaning maids are a lot happier and healthier than your average British woman. Thailand isn't about making big money, it's about living free and have as much fun as possible, without government intervening in every aspect of your life!!!

btw, the trashy parts of Thailand are still prettier than the North of England :)

Is there a dark side to tourism in thailand? Is this woman married from another planet or why would she ask a question with an obvious answer???

@thatwilldonicely I have seen flights for £350 but it always says 'starts from' infront of the price, and then the cheapest one you can find is usually a couple of hundred quid more. You obviously got an amazing deal, I went December 2010 and it cost me £950. But the cheapest ticket I got was in 2005, that was £550, for a 3 month open ticket. Where did you get yours from then mate?

I am thinking that before Britain want to comments to other country they should look as their own country first it is good enough ? 70 % of people in England can't even by their own houses. They are lucky that the government was helping them otherwise most they are going to be homeless. And how many are people's got no job. England is also have got the problem with a million of children to become overweight and more people to become an alcohol drinking problem as well.

@drfriendlyfire i got a flight £350 for my holiday December 2011, but i booked it 6 months previously, i was lucky to get that price,

Condescending, patronising, foreigner offering her own wise opinions on how the Thais should run Thailand? This young girl should really be looking a little bit closer to home, and first adress the issues that we're having here in rip-off Britain, before condemning and criticizing other countries. I think what this programme should've really be highlighting is that all across the world, in every country, there are people that exploit the poor by enslaving them in the 'minimum wage trap'.

this documentry reallys is terrible i have lived in Thailand for a long time, BBC is saying tourism is bad but thats completely untrue, tourism is brings in huge money to Thailand, look at that hotel she was in hundreds of workers at least they have jobs, 200 baht is not enough for a days work and tipping is definatly a great help but no tourism no job.
