Poor Tony – what has he done to be blessed with a mother like Peggy, a wife like Pat (who oddly does not converse in Welsh with her daughter-in-law – why not? – there could be subtitles for the rest of us like when watching Icelandic Noir), a daughter like Helen and ye gods a son like Tom? To be honest you can understand why Tony has followed in the footsteps of Pete Waterman and Rod Stewart and built himself a model railway so that he at least one world where he is control. (You wonder where Rod found the time).
Tony has to act as the “eldest” child – because he is male and that distorts the normal pattern of behaviour. And to be fair the scriptwriters tried to make Tony interesting for a while and found it just did not work. Who remembers Libby the milk recorder for example?
Podcasts are rarely interactive given their pre-recorded nature but Shoreham got a real time mention when Queen Bee responded on the Flick app to a query concerning her location, although it is not a patch on Brighton as Keri quickly observed.
Alice of course cannot look her father in the face when he ponies up for some goodies and they have to use it to pay off debts!
