I hope, l worded it all ok as l don’t want to offend anyone as not all elderly people are the same.
It was all about a woman suffering from Alzheimers.
The flashbacks were to show her life growing up with her sister Suky who had gone missing and the later in life ones with her neighbour Elizabeth .
I would class myself now as elderly but I don't walk like Glenda Jackson , it was kind of funny wasn't it . neither do I have as ravaged a face as her nor her severe haircut. As you so rightly say maybe she acted out the walk and the others were created for the programme.
