I do like several Britcoms...my favourites are Keeping Up Appearances, Fawlty Towers and Mr. Bean! LOL! This sounds intriguing.
ReplyDeleteKeeping Up is such a delightful classic, we love Hyacinth!
DeleteI am really not a fan of mobile phones and social media feels like a waste of time...I am still fighting so hard to get a mobile phone. Have never owned one..I remember I almost got fired when I refused using one at work...but now it's getting difficult. So this series should be quite interesting for me.
ReplyDeleteAnd it will become even more difficult as in about ten years you will be paying everything only through phone. I use it rarely, don't like it, don't even have internet on it, but sometimes it is handy. I would not agree that social media are a waste of time, I am a content creator and also an influencer and you would not believe how many people have changed their health, for example, thanks to my recipes over at Facebook. You can significantly help people that way. There are people who were afraid to change their diet because they did not know how even though their doctors told them they have to and then they saw my simple recipes and it eased them massively into that new style of cooking.
DeleteUn raffinato thriller psicologico che esplora il confine tra arte e ossessione, dove un ritratto sembra perseguitare il suo autore con una tensione d'altri tempi.
ReplyDeleteUn caro saluto
Un caro saluto, Silvia
DeleteIf this series is based on a book, I'd rather read the book. I wonder why your blog is called "Hollywood Spy".
ReplyDeleteBecause I write about films and Hollywood is a synonym for movies, and I spy on movie and TV news daily and present them to the global audience.
DeleteDezmond, thank you for your answer.
ReplyDeleteBe welcome.
DeleteI do miss those times before mobile phones because life felt simpler. However, having a phone is so handy. I would be lost without getting directions handed to me (I was horrible with paper maps!), never worry about breaking down while driving because I can contact help immediately, checking prices in the stores to see if I'm getting a good deal or not, and texting is a godsend. I HATE talking on the phone, so appreciate a text and can deal with that person when I am able instead of "right now" and not get in a long, unwanted conversation just to be polite.
ReplyDeleteI also prefer text to talk, I mostly don't even hear what the person on the other line is saying as I am not used to listening to people over the phone, I just act like I understood everything they said LOL
