Did we actually visit the USSR, pre-season? It would have been an interesting time over there, just a few weeks before the country ceased to exist.

But your example and many others demonstrate that Y often performs the function of a vowel - hymn, tryst, myth, rhythm, why, dry, spy etc, and most adverb endings -ly.

Casting is excellent, ditto script. 'Phil' is the brother of the main character, David, played brilliantly by Lee Ingleby, born 28.1.1976 in Burnley.
