chickencam Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Who else watched this? I loved it, so interesting. My OH was born in the same ex workhouse hospital and his dad grew up a few streets away. He is 10 - 15 years older. I am very much still working class as is my hubby despite him being a professional and university educated. I agree that it is about core values. The worst thing to happen to the image of the working classes is Jeremy Kyle, him and the sort of people that are on his shows have always been a small part of our society but they weren't publicised. The vast majority of people in this country are decent and hard working and we don't see them celebrated anything like enough in the media. I liked his idea of bringing back the temperance movement too for our drunken tones and cities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcountrygirl Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I enjoyed this - except for Cilla Black saying she is still working class. I have read allsorts of stories about her and her demands - she is not working class. I think Paul is though - I love him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yvonne Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I loved it too, as well as a program Grayson Perry did last year on a similar theme. Paul O Grady for PM that's what I say ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 Glad I'm not the only one who loves him. loved the bit where he met the guy from A Taste Of Honey, he was starstruck. He is a lovely guy who loves animals, what more could we want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
