New for 2020 - Hand Typed & Timed Subtitles. I worked hard to improve the audio, it's the best it can be & sounds fine if you can watch on a good TV. Turn the new subtitles on in any event, so that you won't miss a word ;-).

Wonderfully shot around the UK in 1989 and shown on BBC2 as part of their long running & respected '40 Minutes' series. My favourite section is the grand old man with the dragon motif in his ceiling, the music & story are very touching, it's often brought a tear to my eye - Here is the exact piece of music as used in that part of the documentary, it starts at around 38 minutes -    • Brahms: "Ein deutsches Requiem", op. 45  .

Most believable story is the man talking about his aunts who were sisters. Watch out for the hilarious little boy talking about his sister, cute doesn't cover it; as to the story of his grandma, I'm not sure about this one, the daughter could have over heard what her grandma was wearing, and the rest is her imagination. I'm not mad about the last part at the airfield, but overall this is an entertaining & well made programme, in vintage BBC style.

Enjoy!
