56 Up Itv ..

[Elina]

now. Off to watch that, I find it fascinating, followed them all. Fancy having your life/ thoughts documented! Night .

[bibblebub]

Judging by the ubiquity of photos and videos taken on phones and posted on the internet, having one's life fully documented is the norm for a lot of people these days.

[Elina]

True bibble, when this series started though it was 1964 which was unique for it's time!

[Prudie]

It's a fascinating series I've grown with.

It is Prudie. Did you watch the episode just gone? The lady that looked after children with learning difficulties died, can't remember her name but what a lovely lady.

[Prudie]

Yes I did, she was called Lynn, I was saddened to hear she suddenly died and felt for her family who were obviously close. I think I first watched it at 14 up, I'd have been amazed to know then that it would go on for so long.

[boxtops]

I haven't watched it yet, it wasn't on catch-up last time I looked - may try again later.

[Elina]

Yes Lynn! I felt for her family too. Amazing social documentary Prudie .

[Elina]

There's some great characters boxtops. Some sad stories & some happy endings too.

Just looked at your link Elina, there is a picture of them reaching the age of 21 in 1977 ( so was I ) Is it on catch up ?.

[Elina]

Probably will be Tony!
