Programmes that make you feel warm

[LeaveTheClocksAlone]

Only Fools and Horses (the cluttered but very cozy looking flat), all the lovely friendships and Grandad's dinners ♥️

Downton Abbey (something about it makes me want to get into bed on a dark night with the lamp on)

The Crown. The music just mesmerizes me

Gavin and Stacey. So much love and affection in both families

Derek with Ricky G. Again, so much love in that care home

(Side note - I absolutely love Friends but wouldn't say it relaxes me or that I'd want to be in their shoes. Too much dating / job struggling! More of a Saturday afternoon thing than Sunday night viewing... oh never mind I know what I mean)

The Repair Shop ❤

Miranda and Outnumbered.

It used to be the Antiques Roadshow, but it's really slipped recently, it seems that it's gone from 100s of people with their treasures to only a handful, and it's got very samey.

Escape to the chateau

All creatures great and small

Motherland.

The Durrells. OK, Book Spiro was not so comely and there was certainly no relationship with Louisa, but it really manages to encompass that without losing the spirit of the books.

The Krypton factor. 1980s

Dinnerladies

Jam & Jerusalem

Stanley Tucci eating food in Italy. Jamie Oliver doing same - NOT.

Gone Fishing with Paul Whitehouse & Bob Mortimer.

I have no interest in fishing, but the show is really wholesome and funny, when it finishes you just feel better than you did before it started.

Twin Peaks

@Piemam yy to watching stuff on repeat - the ones I’ve listed I must have watched a hundred times. Definitely a comfort thing.

Oh yes
