Jamie Kane and the Fake Sheikh

Who is this mysterious sheikhly figure in the lift of the Royal Accord hotel with popstar Jamie Kane?!



A nice try from the BBC, but so many mistakes:

1. Five star hotels in Dubai are infinitely more palatial than that one (it looks like a budget motel)

2. No guest would be left to make their way to their own room, they would always be escorted

3. There would be way more staff than that standing around to help

4. Sheikhs don't wander around in their ceremonial robes all the time, and when travelling usually carry them

Emirati bloggers can doubtless spot a dozen or more other things wrong with the "sheikh" and his costume.

Um...aren't you being just a little picky? I mean, the game is for 14 to 18 year old girls. Who cares if the Sheikh's costume isn't 100% acurate? Give it up.

Humour bypass, anyone?
