  1. Sliding down a wall when in emotional distress
  2. Swiping everything off the desk when angry
  3. Starting to talk about your day when entering the house, before you've even checked if anyone is home e.g "Hi I'm home. You'll never guess what happened to me in the office today...."

Feel free to add.

I've never seen this, but if she worked normal hours and lived in Sheen she could be home by 7pm at the latest. There's a direct train from Waterloo that runs reasonably frequently. Mind you, I'm struggling to think of anywhere in Sheen that matches the description of a "long inaccessible dirt track", it's the epitome of suburbia.

It was filmed in Shere.

Man (sometimes woman) comes home and immediately opens a beer from the fridge.

Am I missing something with this one? Is having a beer when you get home outlandish in some way?

Before you do anything else? Wash your hands? Say hello to the pets? Go for a pee? Take your shoes off?

Maybe this a niche peeve of mine!

I think it is!

No. I feel the same! There was a thread recently and the vast majority wash their hands first when they get home!

In ‘where the Crawdads sing’ she was clean/groomed/clothes ironed…

The long dark haired fugitive achieving a perfect blond bob in the ladies loo with a ropey old scissors and one box of hair dye.

Women asking men "what are we going to do now?" in a crisis - thank you Reece Witherspoon.

Yep the hero always has to be the man.

This particularly bothered me watching 'United 93'.

I know we will never know exactly what happened and the accounts we do have are from passengers' phone calls.

The experts on the flight, apart from the pilots who were incapacitated or possibly dead, would be the flight attendants.

They would know the route, what was available in terms of emergency equipment eg fire extinguishers, location of the axe(s) what was in the crew area.

Children, particularly playing Victorian street urchins, with shiny shoes, clean faces and gloriously glossy hair.

Wizards turning up to your relative’s birthday party before enlisting you to go on an adventure which ends up with you having to destroy a ring in Mount Doom.

Pottery sessions with your dead boyfriend.

Having to hide from the mob disguised as a nun in a convent.

We've all been there.

Turning all the lamps on with a wall light switch. I know it's possible but not in my budget. I hate the Big Light. I would love this!!!

swiping everything off the desk in a fit of passion!

I did include that in my list, but I'm glad you're on board 😆

No they meant sex passion not anger passion.

You are speeding somewhere in a car - either running away from something or towards something as a matter or urgency. You try to call your friend/loved one to warn them about something of huge importance, and find you have no signal.

So you say "shit" and throw the phone out of the window as you carry on driving.

WHY? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, WHY?
