Looking for a documentary I once saw: Old ladies live together in a house for a while, sort of reality-style. Casual activities, them giving their thoughts on life. At least one of them English, maybe all. Possibly a lake there. Saw it on tv late 90s I think. Very tender. Know it? [more inside]

I haven't watched Survivor (US) since season three, except for the "All-Star" season. I'm watching bits and pieces this year, and it's making me wonder which players in the show's history stand out as being particularly savvy, shrewd, cunning, resourceful, and manipulative, to the extent of almost being unfair to everyone else they played with. Who demonstrated the most incisive understanding of the game's rules and his/her opponents, and how did they do it? And/or what's a glaring strategy that should be employed but has yet to be?
