This is a funny and truly touching short drama about an elderly pair who befriend each other at a care home. It's clear that neither have their medical problems to seek, but that - equally - neither are quite ready to give up the ghost. It also seems that their residence has a swimming pool with a d ... ifference. A sort of fountain of youth! Real or metaphorical - well that doesn't really matter as it has quite a profound effect on the mindset of this increasingly mischievous and lively couple. Flo Wilson is super as the increasingly outspoken "Grace" whom, as a mother, sends her son a photograph any child would dread! Sayed Badreya is also on great form as her pal "Mido" as they share their lives, and aspirations for what's left of them, together in an hugely charismatic fashion. The scenes at the tail end of this must raise a smile and it really is worth twenty minutes of your time.
