Married... 78 years

This story Time After Time about the longest married couple in the UK incorporates some fascinating and tender moments spanning nearly eight decades in a marital journey beginning back in 1932. Having been married only a little over a paltry three decades I can attest to the fact it ain't that easy. These two have seen a lot together. The part of this I find the most humorous is the newly married interviewer's internal dialogue. I hope she takes this couple's story to heart because some of her underlying comments hint at her own marriage being a little fragile... but on the other hand... what marriage isn't? Good story.  :)
