It’s on Acorn TV. If anyone has not mentioned, this is a great source for mostly Brit and Aussie shows and the occasional Scandi noire mysteries |

Agree! Acorn is a $5 add on to Amazon Prime video (and has Ladies of Letters). But not As time Goes By. |

| My 85 yr old grandma is always asking me for recs — but she’s really prudish. She loved Dowton Abbey and Midwives. Can anyone suggest a few that would be suitable? Thanks! |

She would like Last Tango in Halifax. It's very light. About a couple in their 70's that reunite after 50+ years. they're from two totally different types of families - one more upper-middle class, the other more "working class". |

She would like “As Tme Goes By”. My grandmother and I would watch it together when I’d go spend the weekend with her.” |

| British comedy fans--I just discovered a program on YouTube called "Comedy Connections." It's a series of short documentaries about a lot of the classic British shows from older ones ("To the Manor Born") right up to the British "The Office." Looks to have been made around 2000, so they got interviews with some brilliant actors, writers and directors who have since died. If you're interested in the behind-the-scenes stuff it's terrific. Full episodes available. |

I forgot about “To the Manor Born”
Another good one is “Waiting for God” about a feisty couple at a retirement community. |
