Yeah, the bed & breakfast thing is immaterial. The punchline is when Dorothy mistakenly said "Wode Island" instead of "Rhode Island," which is probably how Dorothy pronounced it as a kid when she had the speech impediment.As for Barbara Walters, she's often made fun of for pronouncing her Rs like Ws. For example, Saturday Night Live once had a recurring character called Baba Wawa, which was a spoof on her.

This show and Empty Nest were the bomb when I was little. Although I did only have 2 channels for the first 14 years of my life so my selection was limited.

I think it also has a little bit to do with the fact that Barbara Walters said her 'R's like that too...at least thats how I understood it :)

I think you have that backwards. I think you intended to say Bea is actually older than Estelle. And that's true. In the series though, as you said, they use make up to make Estelle older.

The Rhode Island thing refers to Dorothy's speaking problem was younger. She couldn't say her Rs properly. She said "Wode Island" first then corrected herself and said Rhode Island.

I don't get that Rhode Island thing... what's funny about a Bed and Breakfast there? Is this again one of these jokes that only Americans can understand? :)
