Christmas time TV must watch list

I’ve been watching the best of luck on Sunday a good show I particularly found the chief of amo not going to attempt to spell his name a very interesting character.also thought John inverdale spoke well about horse racing.

Checked the listings,Christmas day desperate apart from the 1% club.

Just watched Morecambe and Wise banana boat song on you tube
didn't tell jokes but i found it very funny

The Great Escape

Albert Finney's musical version of Scrooge tomorrow night in our house is a christmas tradition, tomorrow afternoon Wizard Of Oz is on so will watch that, found an interesting video on the disastrous production of the film which I'm going to watch too.

Home Alone tomorrow too

Home Alone and Die Hard for me.

Brassed Off Ch4 00.35
Great film if you haven't seen it with wonderful Pete Postlewhaite.

Slumdog Millionaire BBC2 10.30 another very good film.

anyone seen the "home alone with Jimmy saville" Xmas jumpers...gutted I only saw them today,defo woulda got one

I watched "Stuffed" last night, a supposedly one-off comedy on the BBC for the festive season.

Right away we were introduced to the main character, played by Guz Khan, who was wearing a jumper with the words "Property of A llah" on it.

I must admit, I can't remember laughing once during the hour it was on, but one line that did catch my attention was when the main character was surveying the scenery at Lapland and commented that it was: whiter than the front row at a Taylor Swift concert.

I don't know, but I would imagine if a white actor had made a 'gag' about people of colour at a black singer's concert, then that would be instant cancellation, or even a couple of years in the slammer for "hate" speech?

Welcome to Christmas on the BBC.

It sounds like it entertained you enough to see it through to the end!

Not one bit, s.kenbo, and if it turns out to be have been a pilot, suffice to say not something I'll ever be watching again. An hour of my life that I'll never get back!

Speaking about commissioning the film BBC Director of Comedy Jon Petrie said: “We jumped at the chance to bring Stuffed to the BBC: from the moment Andy shared this Christmas caper, we knew it was something special
     
Its getting some right stick on social media George, lucky I missed it for (outlaw of josey wells)

If Putin wants to trial one of his biggies id suggest 10 Downing Street SW1,  Portland Place W1 or Wood Lane W12.

The world will be instantly improved

GC, that Taylor Swift 'gag' isn't even an original line as apparently it's been used in memes before.

Dont dare say White xmas   BBC  F I L T H

For the umpteenth time watched 'Spartacus' with Kirk Douglas yesterday.

I watched it with my wife.

was she or you Spartacus 

I will switch back on when the first race is due on Friday. Perhaps the cricket if I wake up before stumps. Can't be bothered with the other tripe these days.

"57 Channels (And Nothin' On)"

The Two Ronnies

Wanted the Ashes live to had to take out a 12 month subscription to TNT - only consolation is there was a couple of cracking documentaries available to watch, one on the unreal Barry Sheene, a character made for the 70’s if ever this was one, and the other, an eight part series on Bernie Ecclestone, which I watched from start to finish yesterday - would have been fascinating to see him turning his wheeling and dealing and problem solving to UK racing administration.

Celebrity "Mastermind"

Q) Singers Presley and Costello share what first name?

A) "Michael"

was Lammy on again

Two Doors Down Christmas Special coming on BBC1 At 10 o'clock.

Just watched  love actually  what a softy I am.
Ronnie.

Gavin and Stacey (I await the abuse )

Gone Fishing.....Quite simply the best.

Just noticed they are racing at Cagnes Sur Mer! Think I will pass on that today.

Oppenheimer - it was a long one (2hrs 50) but managed to get through it without falling asleep.

I wouldn't be rushing to watch it again tbh.

I know it is standard fayre for us Brits to bemoan the lack of quality on the box over the Christmas period but good grief.....it's like they do it on purpose now.

Linear tv is in the past. Just like the local bank in the village.

I was a bit hesitant about watching Elvis (2022). I mean, haven't we seen it all before...How many more times can they retell his life story?

But I have to say, they did a good job and it was very watchable.

It was absolutely dire

imo!

Females having org@sms in the audience as he started singing. Obviously deliberated hammed up twaddle, but unwatchable. Perhaps it got better.

The Darts!!!

Zulu, C5, 2.00

Not only one of the best films of all time with a fine cast, but also accompanied by one of the great musical scores.
