anything good to watch on tele between xmas run up and new year?

this could be films / xmas specials/ dramas/ period dramas/ pantos etc. they don't have to make an xmas theme but just good ways to spend a few cash free hours this xmas season

I haven't noticed much that appeals to me (again) but I shall be watching these;

Doctor Who on Christmas day -Kylie's in it and I think she gets to kiss the Doctor -lucky girl.

Ballet Shoes on Boxing day I think. One of my favourite books from childhood.

Documentry about a year in the life of JK Rowling -can't remember when that's on -new year I think.

I find there's very little on TV these days that's worth watching. Most of it is just trivial nonsense.

I hope you have all been watching Oliver Twist on the bEeb. I love it and Tom Hardy (Bill Sikes ) is gorgeous !
Fancy ballet shoes too and the beeb on chrissy day evening from Dr Who onwards looks not to miss.Think its Catherine Tate and french and saunders but I may be mistaken!

My Family on Boxing Day and The Bill, Holby City are my picks for the season :P

Extras is the only one I'll be making an effort to catch... you either love him or hate him - Gervais does it for me, I'm in fits of giggles whenever he's on with Stephen Merchant

The Great Escape is on (not seen that for a while:rolleyes: ) if your lucky you might find Jason & the Argonauts on somewhere:rotfl:

Got to be Dr who for me, its something the whole family love. & The Manor Born Special one off, use to love that it when it was on yrs ago, will be interesting to watch.

Always end up watching the christmas lectures (on 5 now rather than the Beeb), and I saw a trailer for the BBC version of Sense & Sensibility around new year that I wouldn't mind taking a look at, but otherwise there's not much that springs to mind over christmas this year.


Although I do intend to introduce the boys to the pleasure of splurge guns and pedal cars (we could have been anything that we wanted to be, dum dum dum dum...)
