television

Mum's friend P has been encouraging Mum to watch a period series set in Liverpool - I rang last night at 7pm (2 hours before the show) and she had already been watching TV for 2 hours so as not to miss it. She couldn't tell me the name of the show or anything about it, what time it was on, or what time it was now... she just knew to watch the television until it came on... I feel quite depressed by this for some reason, even though Mum was fairly oblivious to how wretched it sounded.
