Meet the Scouse grandma who loves nothing more than riding a rodeo bull and flashing her bra on the strip of Benidorm.
A new two-part TV series, Benidorm: Brits on the Pull, follows the lives of British pensioners who are more likely to be found sinking shots than cups of tea and on the pull rather than watching daytime TV.
From an 85-year-old Liverpudlian nan Grace , to a bar owner performing stunts on his mobility scooter, these pensioners in Benidorm have no intention of growing old gracefully.
After her husband’s death, Grace moved to Benidorm full-time, living there for 20 years and only moving back to Britain two years ago.
The 85-year-old is described as 'the mischief-maker', who thinks nothing of flashing her bra on the streets.
She has been coming to Benidorm for over thirty years.
Grace says: “I love Benidorm. There’s a lot of people that know me because I’ve been living here a long time”
“My husband and I used to come out for about three or four months.”
She adds: “I went home from Benidorm because of my age. I thought it would be a lot of bother for my family to get my body home if I dropped dead!”
The octogenarian, who insists she never gets a hangover, is keeping a diary of her adventures and still visits Benidorm every year for an extended holiday.
“It draws me back all the time. I have to come for five or six weeks every summer and I just love it. I can’t help it.”
Also on the show is self-proclaimed ' Mr Benidorm’, Lee, from Tottenham who moved to the Spanish resort town less than a year ago.
He worked as a goldsmith for 30 years in London before embarking on a string of unsuccessful businesses in the UK.
He says: “I was a goldsmith for 30 years and then I decided to open a fish and chip restaurant. It sank quicker than the Titanic.
“Then I had a hot dog place on Southend high street - that burnt down. And then I had an opportunity to put some cash into a business.”
Hoping his Benidorm sports bar, the Union Jack 2, will last longer, Lee admits business is slow.
Lee says: “It’s been two and a half months and people are coming in - but it needs to be a lot busier.
“I’m out here to make a bit of money, have a good time and make my two daughters proud.”
Benidorm: Brits on the Pull will air on Channel 5 on July 25 at 10.15pm.
