Four In A Bed is a British reality show that premiered on Channel 4 in 2010. The show revolves around a group of bed and breakfast owners who take turns hosting and rating each other's establishments. The competition takes place over a five-day period, during which the participants stay at each other's properties, sample each other's breakfasts, and assess the level of comfort and cleanliness of their rooms.

Each episode features four B&B owners, who are visited by their competitors and assessed on various criteria such as cleanliness, comfort, and quality of breakfast. At the end of their stay, each participant pays what they consider to be a fair rate for their accommodation, based on their overall experience. The following day, the host reveals the amount they actually charged, and the difference between the two amounts is added to or subtracted from their overall score.

Throughout the week, the participants engage in various activities, such as cooking challenges, outings, and exploring the local area. At the end of the week, the host of the establishment with the highest score is declared the winner, and is awarded a trophy.

The show has a diverse range of participants, from seasoned B&B owners to those who are new to the industry. The format of the show allows for interesting interactions between the participants, as they share their experiences and expertise, and discuss the pros and cons of each other's establishments. In each episode, viewers get a glimpse into the lives and businesses of these entrepreneurs, who are passionate about providing their guests with a unique and memorable experience.

Four In A Bed is known for its light-hearted tone, as the participants engage in playful banter and good-natured competition. The show also features a lively voiceover, provided by British actor Duncan Wisbey, who injects humor into the proceedings with his witty commentary.

One of the signature elements of Four In A Bed is the feedback letters that are given to the host at the end of their stint. The letters are written by the participants, in which they provide their honest opinions about their stay. These letters can be both complimentary and critical, and often spark lively debates between the participants.

The show has also spawned several spin-offs, including Four In A Bed: The Aftermath, which delves deeper into the reactions of the participants after the competition has ended. Another spin-off, Four In A Bed: Couples Come Dine With Me, sees two B&B owners team up to host each other and compete in a dinner party competition.

Overall, Four In A Bed is a heartwarming and entertaining show that celebrates the quirks and personalities of the British B&B industry. With its warm atmosphere and charming participants, it is no wonder that the show has become a long-running hit for Channel 4.

Four In A Bed is a series that is currently running and has 12 seasons (630 episodes). The series first aired on June 27, 2011.
