The programme experienced higher than average and expected ratings, peaking just below 1.90 million viewers on most episodes.

In 2021, the series was repeated by Channel 5 at 4pm weekdays with the title amended to Bargain Brits in the Sun[1] as to fit in with Channel 5's Bargain-Loving Brits holiday series from Benidorm and the Costa del Sol, which would be scheduled to run in the same slot once the Gibraltar series had ended.[2]
