Things toned down a little when Robin joined the Caped Crusader, but were still kept in that pulp tone.

By: Philip Spires | - Mention Benidorm and with it, by implication, the concepts of package tourism, hotel buffets, British bars with one euro a pint lager, northern English Working Men's Club turns imitating something neither themselves nor their audience have ever been, lobster-impersonating spit-burnt sunbathers and fried English breakfasts with the bacon already coated in tomato sauce, and I would bet that very few punters would auto-associate the phrase cultural experience. More likely, perhaps, migh ...
