Make my space on account of time
Looking forward feeling fine
You're thinking about me now I'm sure
Hey I believe that's love
Get the feeling from when our fingers touch
Hey I believe that's love
Get the feeling from when our fingers touch
Flowers in your sun tanned hat
You're proud of yourself when you talk like that
Let me try and promise you
Sunrise hits the light comes through
Hey I believe that's love
Get the feeling from when our fingers touch
Hey I believe that's love
Get the feeling from when our fingers touch
Hey my way across the desert sky
Stay along with me and hold me tight

Amazing just how much work goes into each 22 minute programme
Writing, rewriting, editing, set building, continuity, set dressing, Foley, positioning, acting, sound, and so much more besides ...........
Such precision and attention to detail
Shame the SUBTITLES are so APPALLING!!!
Talk about distracting
I understood so much less of the dialogue WITH the subtitles
Can they be removed...... Please?
I'd love to watch it again with clarity!
Congratulations to all involved
Friends is STILL extremely funny all these years later
Teamwork!!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻

I had to get up 4am (SA show)to get to studio before 7am to write camera cues from scripts that was only fine tuned a few hrs earlier also Continuity and shot caller also cue on cutter. I loved it but totally totally true on how much work goes in. Home time- only 8pm resulting- A takeaway burger and i just plonk on bed (sometimes with that days clothes on)when i got home. I slept so hard I sometimes woke up with drool marks on pillow. I didn't even notice one night when I plonked on my bed that I was robbed earlier that day while at work.😂 I don't know how the writers do it, they never sleep especially on live shows with a studio audience. Crew is totally under celebrated in the 'real' world.
