[QUOTE="Angela Channing, post: 332811, member: 33"] Having read your review of 28 Up I think this was the first episode I watched. I went into it with no prior knowledge of the characters although I had heard of the show and its premise. What first fascinated me about it was how interesting it was to see ordinary people living what was in most cases just ordinary lives.

He also is brutally honest and open and quite happy to discuss any aspect of his life which makes him so captivating to watch.
