I'm not a huge Pratchett fan (ducks brickbats) but I admire what he is doing as part of his dealing process. I have been very close to 'Old Timers' in the past as a carer and it is a very difficult condition to manage or just live through.
Netchick sent me - once I had worked out the typo in your url address on the M&G.
I'll try and record next weeks as I missed the first one. Damn - but thanks for telling me. I wonder if Q saw it .... most probably, but he STILL doesn't realise that I enjoy documentaries, however sad.
Kim: bad luck the recording didn't work. Welcome to my world.
CQ: I read your experience - you know only too well all about its effects. Thanks for spotting the typo
Zed: Men - I find prefer James Bond to documentaries - they don't enjoy feeling sad - not ;that we do, but sometimes they can be very sensitive little souls. Lovely with it.
Zed, CQ and Kim: I know I have already answered these comments but it has disappeared.
Finally got to watch it last night, courtesy of BBC iPlayer, which we've not tried before. Had to drag the laptop downstairs and put it on the coffee table in front of the sofa, but it worked fine.
Maggie says the 4 blokes were representatives of the Greek Chorus, which in Greek plays often narrated the story, or gave vital plot points/background info.
If you've ever watched Woody Allen's "Mighty Aphrodite" he uses this idea
Grand mother but still a girl at heart. Married to MTL(my true love)after a separation of 30 years. Had three careers: trained paediatric nurse, National photographic model and business woman. Now settled in SW and enjoying our five children and ten grandchildren and making the most of what time we have left.
In January 2013 I lost MTL.
