That was a really good series. I watched some of them from then end of WW1 to the middle of WW2....really good and interesting stuff.

I like Andrew Marr anyway, very intelligent man.

And he often wears them on Sunday Mornings...

I'd never noticed that Teresa.

Sunday mornings OH watches the TV in bed and while I might be listening I don't have my glasses on and I'm still a bit dozy so don't always clock what he wears.

LOL
