Social distancing: resources/ideas for interaction

Anyone interested in putting together some resources for things to do / talk about with friends/relatives who are in isolation or distancing?
I'm thinking especially of older people because that's the group most affected at the moment. We call our parents everyday but we need to avoid the conversation revolving around how awful the situation is. Some basic ideas to start off:
Play scrabble online
Play cards online
Arrange to watch the same film/TV ptogramme so we can talk about it after

for those looking for things the elderly can facetime on, the KOMP is specifically designed for them and since you are the one who initiates the calls via an app on your phone, there aren't any buttons to press either.

scrabble is a great idea, perhaps bingo might work too?
