Past Continuous - прошедшее длительное время

Время Past Continuous указывает на процесс, длившийся в определенный момент или период в прошлом. В отличие от времени Past Simple, этот момент в прошлом должен быть назван прямо (например, yesterday at 5 o’clock, when you called, when rain started) или быть очевидным из контекста.

When you called I was taking a shower.
Когда ты позвонил, я принимал душ.

Charlie and me were already driving home when the engine suddenly stopped.
Мы с Чарли уже ехали домой, как вдруг заглох мотор.
