Anticipation:
What? Who? (about?)
Guess the meaning of: millennials,
technophobes and
heartwarming
Group 1
Scratching his (bald) head and furrowing his (lined) brow, 76-year-old Martin
Crossman peers over the top of his spectacles and declares with some
understatement: "This is driving me crackers."
Martin, a retired IT salesman from Northampton has been trying to log-on to his tablet
for the last 80 minutes, to no avail. "It keeps saying 'password not recognized'," he
declares in indignation.
Frustration mounting he flicks furiously through a battered notebook stuffed with
barely legible codes for the house wifi, his wife’s account and the various other
passwords created for him by family members who have tried before to help him get
online.
"Try the Google password," a calm young voice beside him suggests, after patiently
explaining that the ‘g’ in Martin’s gmail address stands for the mighty search engine.
A second later Martin is online, delighted. And it is all thanks to the owner of the calm
voice and judicious suggestion, a young man into whose orbit Martin would never
normally enter.
Twenty-five year-old youtube presenter James Hill has been teamed up with Martin
as part of a social experiment which matches generation Y technological whizz kids
with elderly technophobes and attempts to introduce them to the wonders of the
worldwide web in just six weeks.
Group 2:
The results of the cross-generational pairings form a six part series beginning this
month on Sky 1. In the tv show half a dozen OAPs – including a woman who thinks a
‘search engine’ is a type of train – will be put through their paces by a group of
youngsters to whom posting an online video is as much a part of their daily routine as
teeth-brushing.
And when you consider that a staggering five million of the nation’s over 65s have
never used the internet while at the other end of the spectrum 10 per cent of all
British teenagers are logged on for 10 hours every day, the stage is set for high
drama.
But it also yields some surprising, and heartwarming results.
With a floppy fringe, skinny jeans and a vocabulary bursting with glottal stops James
Hill is typical of his generation. He graduated from York University with a history
degree in 2011, only mixes with computer-literate people his own age and makes a
living presenting a series of youtube shows which boast 5million followers.
Martin, who despite once working as a computer parts salesman is baffled by the
internet and cannot mask his disbelief that James makes money from it. "And this is
your job? Your proper job?" he asks in amazement. Despite the incongruous start the pair quickly discover they have a shared love of
history and genealogy.
Group 3:
But the encounter has a serious note too. Martin was diagnosed with scoliosis of
the spine at age three and although he led a full life, playing county tennis, cricket
and golf: "At age 65 I just collapsed like a pack of cards. Now I am in a lot of pain so I
need to get to grips with the internet because I think I could benefit enormously from
pursuing new avenues on it."
His first challenge is a Golden Wedding Anniversary party for wife Carol and with
James’s help he finds he can download a template for invitations, get in touch with
friends and order most of the entertainment and catering. But his greatest
achievement is the online photo album he makes of the couple’s half century
together.
By the time the 6 weeks is up Martin has embarked on a second digital album, has
been browsing on the John Lewis website for a new bed and is so enamoured by
his new skill that he regularly needs to be told by long-suffering wife Carol to log-off in
the early hours of the morning!
Little James, as Martin calls him, should be proud of his tutoring – yet it is arguably
he who has learned the most from the unlikely encounter. "My Mum and Dad
divorced when I was very young so I really admire and envy the fact that Martin and
Carol have been together for so long. Theirs is a real partnership."
And he adds, somewhat wistfully: "That generation seemed to have a clarity of
direction that mine don’t. Get a job, work hard, save your money, buy a house, get
married, have kids. Sorted."
Group 4:Jimmy is not the only young person to emerge from the experiment enriched.
Roman Kemp a radio presenter and youtuber, comes from a solid family
background. The son of Spandau Ballet bassist Martin Kemp and backing singer
Shirlie Holliman, he has always known that the elderly can get to grips with
technology.
"My Dad’s Dad was one of the first people I knew to get a Skype account and when
he and my nan retired to Poole, he used to Skype me every week after the Arsenal
game to chat the match!"
Roman’s granddad also taught him about computer coding, but he has felt the loss in
his life of an elderly figure for the last six years after he lost all four grandparents
within a year.
"I really miss going round my nan’s house for a cup of tea and just having that
contact with someone from their generation. You can tell your grandparents things
you wouldn’t talk about to your parents about."
Roman is paired with Rose Bass, a 71-year old widow who sees the internet as a
chance to keep the channels of communication open with her seven grandchildren.
"Their world is different to mine, they are always on their ipads and computers," she
says amid the china figurines of her north London home.
Group 5:But Rose, who rolls the word ‘google’ around her tongue like a particularly sour boiled
sweet would also like to reconnect with her late husband’s family in Canada.
Widowed 30 years ago, she lost touch with her husband David’s brother "because it
was just too painful, especially seeing David’s brother Michael because he looks just
like David."
Under Roman’s tutelage she gets in touch with Michael and his wife via Facebook
and even books tickets online to visit them in Canada – a trip which proves cathartic
as the last time she saw them was when she travelled to their home in the immediate
aftermath of David’s death to grieve.
Roman is touched that she has found some closure for her grief and strengthened
the bonds of her family. "It took me four weeks to get out of Rose that her husband
had been incapacitated by a stroke and spent the last 10 years of his life bedridden,
being cared for by Rose.
"She is just like my Nan was in that way – doesn’t show her fears and insecurities –
and just gets on with things. My generation can learn a lot from people like Rose
about how to deal with what life throws at you and still remain positive."
And by the time the show ends, Roman, who says he owes his career to his early
internet posts about sport - has also been reminded of the importance of family and
face-to-face contact.
"The internet is great, but seeing how important relationships are in Rose’s life has
made me want to put down my phone more and have a conversation with Mum or
Dad."
Group 6:And perhaps most touching of all – is the pairing of retired French polisher George
Penfield, 85, and 22-year-old youtube presenting twins Niki and Sammy Albon.
The pair enter George’s life as his wife is in the late stages of cancer and dementia
and along with caring for her around the clock, George suddenly has to learn how to
run a home.
Despite never having switched on a computer before, George is soon adept at online
shopping and downloading recipes. And with the understatement characteristic of his
generation, adds: "Having the boys there was a pleasant interlude at a difficult time."
And in an equally poignant tribute to his contribution to their life, Niki sums up the
success of the project, saying: "George really moved me, especially when he said:
"Don’t waste a single moment of your life. It goes by all too quickly."
