Episode 4

Celebrities test whether retirement in India is better than in the UK. Half of the group visit the dramatic Nilgiri mountains, while the others attend a Hindu ancestor ceremony.

Half of the group visit the dramatic hill stations of the Nilgiri mountains, but the drive involves a treacherous climb that has them on the edge of their seats. Dennis and Paul complete the journey by steam train, arriving in Ooty, the town where snooker was invented.

Bill takes Rustie and Miriam on a wildlife walk in the tea plantations. They are all glad of the cooler climate after the humidity of Old Kochi.

Sheila, Amanda and Lionel attend a Hindu ancestor ceremony, held to remember departed loved ones. Sheila then goes on a flat hunt with her daughter, who is visiting from Dubai, while the others look at a new phenomenon in India - retirement villages.

With the end of their trip approaching, the group hold a final party to thank everyone they have met during their stay.
