bird of paradise - not looking too good

London, United Kingdom

I have a bird of paradise, indoors, in a room with average light - I know, not great. But I am trying to keep on top of watering it correctly. However I can't tell if I'm overwatering it, or underwatering it... I've taken some pictures of what is happening to some of the leaves.

any ideas?

The older leaves of any plant will eventually start turning yellow/brown as it ages. I think your leaves are fine and can be cut off when you decide you want to quit looking at them. If these were the newest leaves then you may have a problem with watering issues.

I usually trim off my older leaves and any bent stems as they become unsightly.
