I only caught the last 10-15 minutes as I was getting my dinner ready, but loved the comment from the old bloke who went to live in Australia..."If you are going to tell a lie, tell it to some bastard you don't care about!"...genius!
...though I was moved by the comment from his grand-daughter, who must have been in her mid to late 50's, that when his wife was dying just a few years earlier...when he was already over 100...he slept on the floor on a piece of canvas so he could be close to her!
