I have a daughter and a 25-year-old grandson. I am 77 years old. I am interested in British shows. I enjoy watching Downton Abbey with my grandson. I prefer any good British period piece.  I like Pride and Prejudice. I get to see my daughter often. My daughter enjoys British shows and British accents. My daughter lives on the same street as me and she enjoy watching shows with me.  My daughter help me with housework. My daughter just started a job as a teacher in a Kindergarten.  She's always loved young children.  She can't wait to have children of her own one day. She is not married yet, but she does have a boyfriend for about 2 years. I was married, had two kids, and was pregnant with my third by the time I was 25.
I had seen the Great British bake off. My 2 kids are at a young age. I don't have any pets. I have a part time job. I am invested in my children's lives. I have a busy life. My husband works as a mechanic. I like BBC shows and actors. I love Kate Winglet. I have not watched Downton Abbey. My parents live 3 hours away from me. I do not get to see my parents as often as I would like. This weekend was the first time I saw my parents in 2 years. I also got married and had kids when I was younger.  I can hardly wait for grandchildren.
You won't believe it, but my daughter's boyfriend finally proposed! I'm so excited! What shows do you like besides Downtown Abbey? I find the British version of The Office to be quite delightful.  Who is your favorite character? It's been a few years since I've seen it. Definitely David. Ricky Gervais is hilarious overall but in that role he rivals his American counterpart. I guess it didn't go on for as long as the American version because of the lack of interesting support characters.  Yes, there was definitely a smaller cast on the original.  It's actually quite common in British television for series to be shorter and run for fewer seasons. Ah, really? Interesting. I guess that's why I tend to struggle to find a British show that had some longevity then.  Shows like Downtown Abbey are the exception to the rule.  Maybe it's because the BBC doesn't collect enough from television license or something, they gotta spread the wealth. Fair enough. How was your visit with your parents? I actually see that downtown abbey only had 52 episode, which wouldn't be enough for syndication here in the US last I checked like 10 years ago. It didn't go great, I haven't seen them in two years because I got into a pedantic argument with them. That's unfortunate. At least you tried to reach out despite all that; I guess that's all that can be done in those situations.  Yes, although technically I could probably have tried harder to not pick fights with my parents. I adore my family, though, anyway.
