A great way to learn everyday, casual English is to watch these sort of shows, as the language used is that in real life, slangs, idioms, and informal expressions. If you find it difficult to recognise words, lower the speed of the video to 0.75x or 0.5x.
==========================================
Tony and Bren arrive early to the canteen in much better moods than usual. Unfortunately, everyone else is in a bad temper. Stan's had trouble with his father, Dolly and Jean bicker continuously, Anita is convinced her new haircut makes her look like Fatima Whitbread and Twinkle thinks she's pregnant. Philippa suggests having a "Bring Your Mother To Work" day to cheer everyone up, though sarcastic Enid (Dolly's mother) and nymphomaniac Connie (Jean's mother) do little to raise the workers' spirits. Stan brings his father, Jim and Petula arrive with an old lady who she says is her own mother.
