I watch Netflix these days nothing on tv unless you pay to watch a decent film.

BethDuttonsTwin · 31/12/2022 21:34

Download The English. It's the best western/love story ever (apart from Last Of The Mohicans) set over six episodes, with the perfect Emily Blunt. Just finished it and cried my eyes out.

I'm watching Bridget Jones the edge of reason (itv be)

itsnotmeitsu · 31/12/2022 21:35

I'm watching 'The Last Leg' on C4 but once that finishes I'll be off to bed. Can't remember the last time I bothered to stay up for midnight to strike on New Year's Eve.

DahliaMacNamara · 31/12/2022 21:38

sigh
Match of the fucking Day upcoming. On New Year's Eve FFS. Should be illegal. I usually send DH to bed early, so that I can do NYE as a solo project. Got the DC here this year, which is fine, but DH is the Anti-Hogmanay.

User176489 · 31/12/2022 21:38

I never stay up, I usually go to bed about 10 and hope fireworks don't wake me, another year nearer death, nothing to get excited about

BorisJohnsonsHair · 31/12/2022 21:38

I really enjoyed Yesterday. Currently watching The Last Leg from my sickbed ☹️

AnImaginaryCat · 31/12/2022 21:40

I want the old style NYE programme like Clive Anderson or Angus Deyton (?) did in in 90s:

  • Run though the year - current affairs, gossipy stuff and those who died.
  • Count in midnight.
  • Yeah!
  • Done.
  • Go to bed.

Oooh - that's genius.

Thanks for that suggestion. I'm off to start now Grin

I’m going to copy cat 🐈‍⬛ brilliant idea!

I have blippi on for my night owl 14 month old daughter. Totally phoning it in.
I started re watching Girls on Nowtv - but it’s showing it’s age

Honeyroar · 31/12/2022 21:45

I was just thinking that it was better than Xmas for films. We’ve just watched Yesterday and are now onto the Full Monty.

I've put the full Monty on I've a bit of a thing for Robert Carlysle😳

WetLettuce2 · 31/12/2022 21:47

YABVVVU -Kelly Jones is on BBC2 WOOHOO !!

LIZS · 31/12/2022 21:47

We've saved up some Christmas recordings

midsomermurderess · 31/12/2022 21:48

The Full Monty is so bitter sweet and it’s interesting seeing people like Mark Addy and Lesley Sharp and Hugo Speer early in their careers. Just waiting for the job centre scene.

Fluffluff · 31/12/2022 21:49

We are watching some poirot film on iPlayer .
Made in the 80s it's so awful we can't stop watching

Saving my excitement for tomorrow and Happy Valley! Yay!

FlamingJingleBells · 31/12/2022 21:51

I just watched an Italian murder mystery on Netflix, 7 women and a murder. Which was much better than anything on the beeb.I watched it in Italian with English subtitles rather than the dubbed version.

Jules912 · 31/12/2022 21:52

We're at MIL's and she put the Prince Andrew musical on. It was... not as awful as I was expecting.

Oh @User176489 🥲

We watched Yesterday, and now it is a vintage Morecambe and Wise.

oakleaffy · 31/12/2022 21:56

Really thinking about cancelling my TV License- so rarely watch it, You tube ( With Adblocker) is much better.
