To think tomorrow's TV line up is shit

How much total shit can they fit into one day?
Big is a good enough film but it's nearly 20 years old
Morecabe and wise and Miranda - one old comedy, one shit comedy
Chas and Dave, Dad's army - more old crap.
Even blackadder - as good as it is, has been shown every Christmas for years.

Isn't there anything new or original? At this rate I'll have to speak to my family

Each to their own, vienna, but he brought my inner grievous bodily harmer bubbling dangerously near to the surface. Merry Christmas anyway!

Sparklingbrook · 24/12/2014 20:03

Skyfall is on now-why didn't they save it for tomorrow?

Tanith · 24/12/2014 20:04

I cannot believe they have the nerve to wheel out Morecambe and Wise again! I know the bloody thing backwards by now.

Mind you, I do have my step FIL coming tomorrow. He has Alzheimers and it will seem like new to him Smile

Looking forward to Skyfall tonight and Dr. Who tomorrow.
I'm also getting out my copy of the League of Gentlemen's Christmas Special: one repeat I never get tired of, even if it does still scare me Smile

Cbeebies, frozen and soaps for us! I don't see a problem with it to be honest! kids are happy, same sort of TV as any other day.

YABU. Turn the bloody thing off!

Sparklingbrook · 24/12/2014 20:25

This is funny-I may watch it instead of anything on the TV.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 24/12/2014 20:32

I'm not sure I can do that at PILs without appearing rude

You must NoArmani, and play some humorous parlour games like Charades, or matchbox on the nose. Grin

Why the fuck is Jurassic Park on tomorrow at 3.35pm??? Hmm

NoArmaniNoPunani · 24/12/2014 21:07

Sparkling: that makes me think of this

. . . or at all?

Sparklingbrook · 24/12/2014 21:09

I love that card NoArmani. Grin Grin

JeffVaderRunsTheDeathStar · 24/12/2014 21:10

Big is actually over 25 years old. :o

Andrewofgg · 24/12/2014 21:10

It makes me wince, but then, as a recently departed lady would have said: It would, wouldn't it?

Andrewofgg · 24/12/2014 21:11

That's the card, not Big.

Sparklingbrook · 24/12/2014 21:11

My friend had a big family and they used to hire a church hall on Christmas afternoon so the whole family could get together in one place.

They used to play games. One of them was get into teams and take their clothes off and see who could make the longest line out of them Do you think your PILs would go for that NoArmani?

NoArmaniNoPunani · 24/12/2014 21:13

Shit, it is as well. I've done that thing of missing out the 2000s when I was counting

Family life, Sparklling, putting the FUN into dysFUNctional!

Sparklingbrook · 24/12/2014 21:14

Absolutely Andrew. She was a lovely girl. I would love to have been a fly on the wall.

Shudders

That reminds me, I must remember this year FIL doesn't lock the door when he showers. That's a mistake I don't intend to make twice

How long are you there for?

DiseasesOfTheSheep · 24/12/2014 21:17

Miranda, CTM and the Doctor here. Definitely no familial stripping off and making phallic lines of clothes Xmas Shock

LadySybilLikesSloeGin · 24/12/2014 21:18

I have virgin so have 100 channels of shit to look through.

I've bought Ds some DVD's for Christmas because I saw the line up in November and knew it was going to be shit. We're going to spend the day watching movies and eating popcorn.

NoArmaniNoPunani · 24/12/2014 21:22

Until Saturday. Reading MN has made me realise how lucky I am, some poor buggers get a week or more with their families
