I have never seen It's a Wonderful Life.
Anyone know if it is on over Christmas?

I've never seen The Great Escape. Nobody ever believes me

SnowballsintheSky · 16/12/2008 14:45

Neither have I. I borrowed the dvd from my mother last Crimbo (tee hee ) but it hasn't left the box yet! I should think it'll be on though

elliott · 16/12/2008 14:46

I've never seen the Sound of Music.

SnowballsintheSky · 16/12/2008 14:46

I've never seen Chitty Chitty Bang Bang either...

CliffRichardSucksEggsInHell · 16/12/2008 14:46

I saw Bad Santa! That was funny as hell!

ChestnutsRoastingonanOpenFlier · 16/12/2008 14:47

I've seen it just once and it is lovely. don't know if its on though. Surely it must be?

SnowySunshine · 16/12/2008 14:48

Oh, I love The Sound of Music & have seen it countless times - in fact, I can mark my transition into womanhood by the point at which Captain von Trapp stopped being the father figure & started being sexy.

SnowySunshine · 16/12/2008 14:49

Also, I'm not sure that It's A Wonderful Life is on. Just like they're not showing The Snowman this year, I don't think. Thank God for DVDs.

AdventCandleQueen · 16/12/2008 14:49

I've never seen White Christmas, Chitty or The Sound of Music.
I have seen The Great Escape though, because my Grandad was in the REAL great escape!

AdventCandleQueen · 16/12/2008 14:49

My Grandad is not Steve McQueen BTW

ChirpyGrinch · 16/12/2008 14:49

I've also never seen -
Titanic
Love, Actually
Pearl Harbour

Although I accidentally watched a bit of Titanic last year before someone pointed out to me what I was watching and I ran for the hills!

just checked TV choice mag - its not on may be worth checking your local cinema though, ours is showing it next MOnday and Tuesday.

branflake81 · 16/12/2008 14:53

I've never seen Dirty Dancing.

NewHollyOtherIvy · 16/12/2008 14:53

SnowySunshine - me neither

I love It's A Wonderful Life. Now. My sister always raved about it and I thought I hadn't seen it so I bought the DVD then realised it was one of my childhood favourites too

AdventCandleQueen · 16/12/2008 14:57

Branflake? Dirty Dancing? NEVER?

AndaPartridgeOnADustyTv · 16/12/2008 15:01

Up until DH made me watch them I had never watched Star Wars!!

southeastastra · 16/12/2008 15:03

i've never seen dirty dancing either or pretty woman

The Snowman is showing on Christmas Eve. 3pm, channel 4.

SnowySunshine · 16/12/2008 15:07

Ooh, my friend said that it wasn't showing. That's good. Christmas Eve isn't Christmas Eve without The Snowman.

SnowOfHands · 16/12/2008 15:12

I wholeheartedly agree Snowy.

I ran to my Radio Times in a panic when I saw your post.

Great Escape and Chitty are on this year too for those who haven't seen them. I haven't seen either of them. No It's a Wonderful Life though (never seen it).

Polar Express is on Christmas Eve which is a must.

SnowballsintheSky · 16/12/2008 15:21

I've never seen the Great Escape either, even though we used it a lot at work a couple of years back. But I have seen Chicken Run which is the same thing!

missmama · 16/12/2008 15:24

WE watched its a wonderful life the oher night in bed.
DH had never seen it before and his mate at work lent it to him.
(He cried )

girlywhirly · 16/12/2008 16:44

I've never seen Casablanca. DH nearly fell off his chair when I admitted it, and was convinced I was joking.
