Scene: An old lady is being interviewed by a clinical researcher to find out her drinking habits – not of the alcoholic variety, just how she keeps herself properly hydrated during the day. Being a member of that special British generation that lived through World War II, tea plays a very great part in her daily drinking routines. She’s clearly enjoying being asked to talk, and gets quite animated.
Researcher (female, 50): So you take your tea in a mug – is it a special one?
Care Home resident (96): Oh yes, I love me tea.
Researcher: Is it a china mug?
Care Home resident: Definitely, it says underneath “Made in China”.
