Using the past perfect tense
Uses
The past perfect tense is not usually used alone. It is mainly used with the simple past tense and then it refers to an action that has already happened by the time another action had commenced.

The patient had died before the doctor arrived. (NOT The patient died before the doctor had arrived.)
We use the past perfect tense for the earlier of the two past actions.

The train had left before we reached the station. (NOT The train left before we had reached the station.)
I had cooked the meals before the kids came home from school.
I had finished one project before I started the next.

Slide 4 - Tekstslide

The past perfect continuous tense
It had been raining.  
Uses
The past perfect continuous tense is used to talk about longer actions or situations which had continued up to the past moment that we are thinking about.
At that time I had been studying in London for three years.
When I found Susie, I could see that she had been crying.
Difference between past perfect continuous and past continuous tenses

Both past continuous and past perfect continuous tenses can be used to talk about actions or situations that were in progress at a certain point of time in the past. While the past continuous merely shows continuity, the past perfect continuous tense also puts an emphasis on the idea of duration. It is mainly used to indicate the duration of a past activity or state.

 While you watch the film clip: 
Combine two sentences into one to accurately describe the events that occur. You must include a linking word (e.g. so, because, while, etc.). You must also change the verb form when necessary (e.g. 'He went...' to 'He was going...' "He had stolen"). There are more detailed instructions on the worksheet.
Focus is on the past continuous and the past perfect
