Really? I thought it was crsp two yrs ago when they repeated 'The Gruffalo' despite it having been on the previous year.

We liked the snowman and snowdog and room on a broom. I watched tangled (dd was scared by it when it was released looks like she has grown up Sad) and am looking forward to Call the Midwife after kids arre asleep.

Unless you're a soap fan, the only thing worth watching that's still to go is The Royle Family.

Really dislike Downton Abbey so that's off my list!

Well, there's my gurning juddering hero Brucie on Christmas Strictly.

He's already told Fabrice he's 'got rythym'.

The Royle Family is on, if you like that.
Presuming not an Eastenders fan, otherwise recommend that.

Struggling to find something too.
I gave up on the soaps a long time ago as they're so utterly depressing, and they up the ante at Christmas. Why would people on Christmas Eve and Night want to see death and divorce and downright misery?
I'll never get it.
I'm watching Lord of the Rings again for the umteenth time.
Isn't there a new Royle Family tonight?
