Default Re: How do you form the PASSIVE of this??

Hi,
I thought the Perfect Continuous Passive did not exist, only Active.
OK, I was wrong, it does, but it’s so cumbersome that in practice it’s hardly ever necessary to use it - there are other, simpler ways to convey all the implications it can have.
Regards
