I knoow that some of our TV progs reach t'other side o't pond from
time to time, so as the opportunity arises, check out the comedy
drama, "The Last of the Summer Wine." It's been running for years and
focuses on life in a small town in the Yorkshire Dales where dominant
women are very much in control of their menfolk. Actress Dame Thora
Hird often features as the owner of a red 1200 convertible in which
she transports two or three other very amply proportioned friends.
Perhaps UK listers can confirm whether Norah Batty usually takes the
back seat? If so, I can't work out how they get another actress in
beside her - even if the top is always down!
