Young At Heart (1981) - with John Mills & David Neilson (Roy Cropper from Coronation Street).

Community spirit is rare these days. So unfortunate that future generations may never experience the beauty and freedom of living in a world where trust abides. Such a precious thing to loose.

I'm so glad that KZbin recommended this delightful gem....warm, funny, uplifting to the soul. 😊💐

You rather had to have “ community spirit” if your front door was a foot away from the neighbors.

[@niamhosullivan1291]

@kibbylol we lived in a high trust society then, so we're condfident of safety. Now that communities have been destroyed the political classes and replaced by izl@ms and gimme gr@nts , we are so much better better off , we are told

Can't we have a comments thread on any programmes without someone shoe-horning their soap box about migrants into it? Whatever the subject someone will sound off and blame it all on migrants 🥱

[@LuciThomasHardylover-qx6ts]

And it was the height of bad manners to bang on about politics and religion in mixed company. People were taught to be polite and considerate,consider other people's feelings. Instead of making irrelevant proclamations either assuming that everyone thinks you're right or that you sound so belligerent that no-one wants a confrontation. Conversation was once considered an art, showing an interest in the other person, encouraging others, taking the trouble to remember what they liked. A different way to live indeed.
