Arley Hall, Location for Peaky Blinders

Research by Bed Guru has found the most expensive and cheapest TV show location you can stay in overnight, as well as drawing upon experts to find out how TV has been important during the pandemic.

Bed Guru found that the house in the Netflix show Sex Education comes in at £766 for one night, and is one of the most expensive TV show location to stay at, whereas Peaky Blinders style accommodation is the cheapest place to stay overnight for fans, coming in at £70 for one night. However, to stay in a Love Island lookalike villa, it will cost you over £10k for just one week!

The modern Love Island-like house is set on the hillside between Deia and Soller on Mallorca’s spectacular west coast with sea and mountain views might just hit the spot if you are a love island fan.

With the prospect of holidays in the UK and abroad becoming more promising, we think this research provides interesting information for people who have spent their lockdown watching these TV shows!

Data from Ofcom reveals that screen time during lockdown saw people in the UK spend 40% of their day watching TV. And with people becoming more and more invested in their favourite TV shows, why wouldn’t you want to stay overnight at the place you love to watch most on TV?

For those that have become emotionally attached to TV shows over the pandemic period, this could be the perfect way to get even closer to your obsession with your favourite shows.

Comment from a psychologist, Dr. Balu Pitchiah a Chelsea Pharmacy Medical Clinic, on why we become so emotionally attached to our favorite TV shows:

‘ Watching good programs on TV can contribute to positive emotions that are comforting and activate the brain’s reward pathways. When we feel good, our minds open and our awareness broadens, allowing us to think creatively. As a consequence, a series of psychological processes help to incrementally build positive resources such as resilience that can be drawn upon in times of need such as the lockdown and Pandemic ‘-

And from Neuro-linguistic programming and hypnotherapy coach, Rebecca Lockwood:

“Watching TV can be an escape from the real world. When we are really into a program we can get immersed into it, lowering what’s called the critical faculty (or critical factor) in our brain which allows suggestions into the subconscious mind and creates a perception that things are true and we immerse ourselves into them. This is why when we are not into something we are watching we will question if it’s even possible for it to happen and the critical factor will discard and discredit it. It is possible that lockdown has changed our relationship with TV, with people spending most time at home watching TV and binging on different series people will have spent more time watching and immersing themselves into TV shows. I think TV has been a comfort for many people, which for some may continue. As lockdown begins to ease and we get busier in our lives I think we will get back to our usual routines. For some that is binging on TV shows and for others who may now be spending their time commuting to and from work for example the time may be taken up with other activities or even the travel to and from work.”
