In CT's case, someone tapping on the window would be even more alarming!

Very true. Not a small consideration in my dislike of ground floor properties.

There was a house for sale just up the road with a lovely drive, that would have solved my parking spaceless car management problems, but I passed up on it because the bathroom was downstairs, and the thought of going down there at night for a w*e really put me off.

When I was at school, I knew someone whose bathroom was downstairs and their living room was upstairs. It was madness.

When I was doing my A-levels I too knew such a person. All the bedrooms were downstairs as well. It was like a Neighbours house.

Now to see what's on the telly tonight.

The Repair Shop is on BBC1.

They are repairing a suspended chair from the 1960s.

After that, Blue Planet II is looking at coral.

The Taming of the Shrew is about to start on Sony Movies, starring Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton.

I got over-excited for a moment because I got it mixed up with A Turn of the Screw.

The Reptile is on The Horror Channel at 6:45.

Dr Who Meets Nikola Tesla is on BBC1 at 7:10.

I have become a semi-regular viewer of Call The Midwife. I had thought it was typical Sunday night trash for people too tired to see if there was anything on the other side. I caught the end credits and thought to myself 'that sounds like Vanessa Redgrave, surely not'...

I tuned in the following week and surprised myself by enjoying it. And it is her - who'd have thought!

Now to see what's on the telly right now.

Carry On Cleo is on Film4.

That's my favourite ever Carry On.

"Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!"

I've ruined that joke, now, for anyone who's never seen it.

Wuthering Heights is on Sony Movies.

Starring Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon.

That's followed by The Admirable Crichton.
