PF I was also disappointed with The Village

[CLKD]

Victoria Wood's journey to find out our daily cuppa?  Really interesting.  But we haven't been told exactly what the camillea leaf contains ....... to make it 'addictive' .......

[Elena]

I caught the second part of that, when she was in India onwards.  I am recording tonight.

The camillea leaf?  Is that what ordinary tea is made of?

[CLKD]

Yep.  Found in China and the trade of it caused the opium wars.

I think most of the tea we drink is graded and mixed.  I will be looking up this every interesting bush to see it's properties - look out the single plant in our garden  which failed to flower last year 

[Greyhoundgal]

I thought it was fascinating and looking forward to watching part 2

[CLKD]

Enjoyed it!  Would like to see it again ......... to see the bits I probably missed 1st time around 

[Elena]

I'll see if it's on iPlayer as I missed half of part one.

[CLKD]

Oh probably is too 

[CLKD]

Gosh tea-making is so involved!  How we get those camillea leaves into our pot or bag is along journey!

[honeybun]

BGT is back.

Simon is looking stranger than ever.

Enjoyed it though.....some quite touching moments .....or is it just me.

My favourate where the shadow dancers.....and yes Simon is looking strange  , such a shame, why can't he just grow old gracefully.

[CLKD]

Don't have *that* on our TV  .........

[Scampi]

Our TV won't get BGT either CKLD!!!

watched 'Endeavour' last night - loved it!  Great fun spotting allusions to 'Morse' episodes.

Maureen Lipman last night?  I was torn between continuing with the pet awards and turning over the Channel.  I could really feel for the guy who had arrived at a scene of devasataion only to have another man waving a traumatically amputated limb at him  - personally I would have wanted to ram it in his face, what *was* the man thinking of ......... now the guy is severely traumatised and keeps replaying the event over and over 

WE are not supposed to see awful things, we expect to see Life as 'within normal limits', hence the need to look at anyone disabled, wearing strange clothing/hair/make up .......... so traumatic events stick 

[Taz2]

As I didn't see the programme I can only speculate that maybe the man waving the limb around was in a state of shock himself?
