Accidental enjoyment

Tele on in background tonight, BBC1 programme called The Kennedys came on, not paying much attention but suddenly Austin/Morris/BL classics appeared.

Morris Marina BNB297T, Wolseley version of 1100/1300 JTK223G and at various times in the background mini's and a Red Hornet/Elf no close ups, so no positive ID.

Seems like at the period this programme is set in, people only drove Cowley/Longbridge cars.

(Isn't pause/rewind/replay a wonderful feature of modern TV).

Forgot to mention the humour and of course the lovely receptionist from Doc Martin. Think it's a show that will grow on me.
