  • We use it alone to talk about a past action which was in progress at a past time.

  • For example, what were you doing at eight last night at eight?

  • I was watching TV.

  • It's often used in combination with the past, simple in something that I like to call the interrupted past.

  • This is when two actions happen together.

  • Ah, longer action, which is usually the past continuous on a shorter action, which is usually the past simple.

  • Most commonly, the shorter action interrupts the longer action.

  • For example, I was sleeping peacefully when suddenly the phone rang.

  • Hello to join these two tenses.

  • We use words like when and while, for example, while I was showering, the phone rang.

  • However, it's also continuous, so that action was in progress.
