The Real Marigold on Tour

Miriam Margolyes, Bobby George, Sheila Ferguson and new recruit Stanley Johnson explore retirement in the largest country in the world, Russia. First stop on their journey is the cultural capital of St Petersburg, where they visit a lavish retirement home for retired actors, before leaving their comfortable surroundings of the city for a night in a Russian Sanatorium.

Paul Nicholas, Sheila Ferguson, Wayne Sleep and Jan Leeming embark on an adventure in the capital of Argentina, Buenos Aires, first paying a visit to a late night Tango event where they spend the night dancing with the locals. The following day, the group explore what the cultural capital of Argentina has on offer. Having duetted together in the past, Sheila and Paul book a Tango singing lesson, while Wayne and Jan enrol in a life drawing class. For their final night in Buenos Aires, Sheila and Paul find a venue where they can perform the Tango song they learned earlier in the week.

Wayne Sleep, Rosemary Shrager, Syd Little and Stephanie Beacham embark on a journey to the heart of the Far East, Vietnam, beginning in the capital city of Hanoi. Here, Rosemary and Stephanie explore their local neighbourhood, while Syd and Wayne decide to cool off with an afternoon dip. The following day the group join hundreds of local pensioners exercising around the Hoàn Kiem Lake. For the second half of their stay, the group swap the heat of the city for a cooler climate in the mountainous region of Lao Cai, before ending their time in Vietnam by scaling the summit of its highest mountain.

For their final adventure, Paul Nicholas and Rosemary Shrager are joined by comedy duo Ian and Janette Tough as they embark on a journey to Mexico. Beginning in the colourful city of Guadalajara, the group are keen to get to know their local surroundings, and enjoy a meal in a lively Mexican restaurant. The next day begins with a visit to a government funded institute for the elderly, before Rosemary and Paul decide to go and see one of Mexico's most popular spectator sports, wrestling. Finally, the group swap the streets of Guadalajara for the lakeside retirement mecca of Ajijic, and waste no time in throwing themselves into the local way of life, before reflecting on the two contrasting sides of Mexican retirement. Last in the series.
