channel 4 have confirmed that there will be another 2 series of the show..
Quote:
Channel 4 has commissioned two more series of daytime reality show Coach Trip.
Series five and six revert to the original 30-episode format - the current run is an extended 50-day tour - and will be filmed over the summer.
International tour guide Brendan Sheerin will front both six-week tours around Europe, the first of which is scheduled to air in the autumn. The second is expected to transmit at the beginning of next year.
Speaking of the new series, Brendan told Digital Spy: "I am over the moon with excitement and in training for the next two series as I await welcoming onboard a new bunch of tourists for Coach Trip five and six!"
He continued: "The routes and activities are top secret at the moment but I promise it will be the ride of your life on Coach Trip. This time it will be filmed over the summer months so I shall try to include the odd beach too!
"Those of you who want to apply, don't forget your bathing costumes - I shall supply the sun cream!"
Executive producer Matt Walton said: "We're absolutely delighted that the latest series has been so well received and that Channel 4 have committed to another two series."
He added: "Both series will shoot this summer and without giving too much away before the tourists hit the road, you can expect all-new, sundrenched destinations as the coach will roll into virgin Coach Trip territory."
C4's head of daytime Helen Warner commented: "I'm very proud of the success of Coach Trip because it's one of my all-time favourite shows. It has become a huge hit for us, with series four attracting an average of two million viewers – the highest ever. "
She went on: "I'm thrilled that the Coach will be on tour for another two series, this time heading off on new routes. I can't wait to see who makes it on board with Brendan!"
