Dtr bought me the latest Vera book for Christmas and I enjoyed it.

Yes, he was Florence.

I had never watched Peak Practice until lockdown when I decided to watch it from scratch.

I did the same with other unseen series during lockdown, sitting on an afternoon with my coffee. It reminded me of Mum who used to watch ‘her programmes’ in the afternoons, <3

I actually thought it was a good one. Loved hearing the songs from Pirates of Penzance.

Somehow I managed to miss this last night.

Remember him in Auf Wiedersehen Pet?

I kept thinking that too. Just shows how typecast he is.

Oh one of my fav programmes Ann but I agree, he will always be the "Lewis" guy whatever he appears in!

A new one on tonight and I am enjoying it except……….Kevin Whatly has a main part and no matter how I try to ignore it, I can’t help seeing him as Lewis. Albeit a bit older Lewis.
