feeling a bit blue and so I reach for Gavin and Stacey. It always fulfils a need. I also comfort watch Downton and Outlander.
What are your comfort watches? 😀

Miranda. Always, always Miranda. I laugh out loud at her even when I am alone. She has such a feel good factor, which I need.

@IAmRubbishAtDIY ditto ! I’m laughing now just thinking of her. DH doesn’t get the humour but I can’t stop laughing at her. Definitely my go to.

Used to be Friends but I’ve seen them so many time now, the humour has gone for me (and Ross’ character annoys me now)

Another one for Miranda. Also This Country, Alan Partridge, The Office.

Ditto the Colin/Jennifer P&P

I’ve also delved back into Will & Grace on amazon prime this week and it’s great.

I’m waiting v patiently for The OC to appear on one of my streaming services please.

Hart of Dixie is my guilty pleasure, I love it. It makes me want to live in Alabama, except an imaginary Alabama with no racism, mosquitoes or Trump supporters.
