Really looking forward to this. Hope it's good. DSes and I loved the book. Anyone else going to watch it?

Yep. DS is delighted, Mr Stink was a great hit last year too.

He's read Gangsta Granny several times, loves it!

scaevola · 26/12/2013 18:09

Yup. Snuggled on sofa, board games abandoned.

It was ok-ish.

We liked it Xmas Smile

(Turned out none of us had read this one - though we have read his other stuff).

It was lovely.

Robbie Williams sending himself up was fab, such a great guy

Hulababy · 26/12/2013 19:43

Watching it at moment. Dd loving it.
A lot less serious/moralistic than Mr Stink. Dd's Grandparents here and watching too - all liking it.

DuchessFanny · 26/12/2013 19:44

Robbie Williams had us in stitches !

Retropear · 26/12/2013 19:44

We loved it,my dc's grandma is in ICU so a little close to home but we still all really enjoyed it.

ouryve · 26/12/2013 19:45

DS1 pulled a face at the trailer, so we recorded it.

ThePortlyPinUp · 26/12/2013 19:48

We all loved it, best thing we have seen all Christmas tbh.

ChoudeBruxelles · 26/12/2013 19:48

Ds loved it. Was laughing out loud. He's now started reading boy in a dress because it's the same author

MrsCampbellBlack · 26/12/2013 19:48

We thought it was fab. DD who is 4 thought 'randa looked sooo pretty'.

wintera · 26/12/2013 20:58

We cried in our house as it was a bit too close to home but enjoyed it immensely.

VesuviusPoovius · 26/12/2013 21:28

Miranda looked better than she does in Miranda Shock

DC here were hooked.

furlinedsheepskinjacket · 26/12/2013 22:07

i think so too about Miranda vesuvius - she is quite glam irl I believe her haircut in Miranda is a comedy style.i also think sarah millican is same.if you took away her glasses and changed her wardrobe she could look a different person.

thenightsky · 26/12/2013 22:27

We thought it was very good. Watched it with granny who also loved it.

Moln · 26/12/2013 22:33

Enjoyed it, despite the presence of Robbie Williams.

ellenjames · 26/12/2013 22:39

is it on again as I missed it Sad

smugmumofboys · 26/12/2013 22:42

DS has read the book and was really looking forward to this. We all enjoyed it and FIL was chuckling loudly throughout. Xmas Smile

Lighthousekeeping · 26/12/2013 22:44

I cried my eyes out. Loved it.

flipchart · 27/12/2013 00:15

I don't get why everyone is raving about.
I watched it with my kids and they got bored, I thought it was ok but didn't feel bad about getting up for a brew during it. If I was really enjoying it it wouldn't occur to me to do so.
Nothing special for family viewing.
