April 4, 2008 at 2:11 pm #1159647I think also it has a lot to do with retirement,
alot of older people have had responsible jobs / roles and when they retire some can loose their identity left ‘sitting at home’ depressed with no formal routeen – as they’ve been brought up with strong work ethic that has left some with little else in their lives….
maybe children moved away / spouse deceased / divorced
and they then take on roles of (for example) parking monitor like the one in the program and go OTTsimilar thing happened to a guy I know who ended up really really depressed shortly after he retired, and he had ECT, which did him so much good he returned to work there as the lead nurse part time (he was a nurse before he retired)

OAPs can be quite dangerous if they get angry and bitter (especially those who are terminally ill but still active/mobile and with physical strength) they have nothing really to lose if they go HMP (they are gonna die soon anyway) and plenty of grudges/scores to settle.
see this is what happens if you spend your whole life in norwich :laugh_at:
