Benidorm star Crissy Rock has confessed she now lives like a ‘nomad’ and could find herself in a ‘cardboard box’ seven years after the ITV show ended.

The comedian, 66, who played H๏τel manageress Janey York in the series, explained that her career and upcoming UK tour has resulted in sleeping ‘couch to couch’ while keeping her possessions in the boot of her car. 

As well as starring in Benidorm, Crissy won numerous awards for her role in 1994 movie Ladybird, Ladybird before going on to appear on I’m A Celeb and Celebrity Come Dine With Me and Celebrity Masterchef.

She told The Express: ‘Me, I’m like a nomad. I live from place to place to place. My wardrobe is just the boot of my car. If it wasn’t for my friend, I would be living in a hostel or a cardboard box’. 

‘When I’m in Liverpool, I go and see her and I have family and that so I just sort of move around from couch to couch.’

Crissy appeared as Solana H๏τel boss Janey for the show’s first four seasons, before retuning sporadically until her final exit during season seven. The comedy continued for another three years before being axed in May 2018.

Asked if she would be keen to see the comedy make a return, Crissy said: ‘I’ve heard that the show could come back and I think that it would be brilliant if they did bring it back. But I can’t say much, but I would love it to happen’.

Just two months after its cancellation was confirmed, the show won Best cCmedy at TV Choice Awards – with its creator Derren Litten calling out the decision in his acceptance speech at the time.

Now its been reported it could be making a comeback, with The Sun claiming earlier this year that TV bosses are in talks to reboot the show.

A TV insider told the publication: ‘Benidorm was adored by millions when it was suddenly cancelled. Fans will be thrilled to hear ITV wants to bring it back.

‘An 11th series hasn’t been commissioned yet, but there’s major excitement building as early talks begin.

‘Producers have started to reach out to the show’s stars and are hopeful a decision can be made later this year.’

Fans were ecstatic as the news circulated online, writing: ‘Sincerely hope this is true!! Dearly missed show!’;

The ITV Brits abroad sitcom – which followed a group of holidaymakers in the Spanish resort and their hilarious escapades – came to an end in May 2018 after 11 years, and fans have been begging for more ever since.

In 2023, show creator Derren teased a return of the beloved series as he announced that he was returning back to writing for ‘both television and theatre’.

He said: ‘I have had clear, recent indications that certain TV channels are interested in my decision and I hope you will be watching the fruits of my labour in time to come.’

Then, in March 2025 he sparked hope of its comeback once again when a fan asked on X: ‘@DerrenLitten @ITV Another series of Benidorm on the cards?’ and he cryptically replied: ‘Who knows…’

Announcing the news on social media that it had been axed in 2018, Derren said: ‘Crazy to think Wednesday will be the last episode of Benidorm!

‘I created the series over 11 years ago, wrote it, guest starred in it and ended up directing it. It’s difficult to think what else there is to do! Thank you for watching!’
