is there anything good on TV tonight??

[mixedmama]

.... may be so bored otherwise.

scum is on itv4 is you fancy a laff

whats that all about then??

grim film with ray winstone about borstals

Saw Scum at cinema when I was much younger - very shocking and violent and upsetting. I'd watch Waterloo Road instead !

I think the channel 4 'Mummy diaries' programme is on tonight, though that may be too sad for you.

Yes, Californication on Channel 5 at 10pm. I started watching it because I luuurve David Duchovny.. .but it's a million times better than I hoped! Fox Mulder he aint!!! It's hilarous, and you get to see his bare arse quite often too.. which is a bonus!

well "Thursdays are dull as dishwater funny" on the BBC.

Ahh yes forgot about Waterloo road.... can someone tell me why the boy who was essentially responsible for Izzys death is working in the canteen?

What is the mummy diaries and why is it sad?? I am actually 32 weeks preg so i find a ridiculous amount of stuff sad.

studio 60 (more4 at 10)- best thing everrrrrrrrr.......

I will so be asleep by ten

Mummy diaries is a documentary I think about 5 familes where the mothers are terminally ill and they are writing diaries in the time they have left for their children.

Told you it might be too sad. I'm going to watch though.

Muumy Diaries is the story of five (I think) Mums with terminal cancer and them preparing their children for what is to come.

That sounds like something I'd watch and dh would sit quietly putting up with it - but it'd make me sad as my brother died of cancer when he was 10 which is same age as ds is now and I start to think gloomy thoughts,which is obviously not good.

I just read about it.... that will have me bawling. I dont think I could watch. How brave.

ugh, I've misunderstood - the mother's are dying, not the children, which is just as sad making...

maryann

thank you southeastastra

i wish i could say something more maryann, but i'm not that great with words. today has been quite sad on mumsnet.

no, don't worry southeast - my brother died many years ago when I was 13, but I do think of him more as ds is at the same age as he was and they look a little alike. I can't think how my parents got through it - I think I buried my feelings at the time and it's come out in later life. Bu this is hijacking the tv thread !

Thursdays used to be the best night for TV, now it is the worse. I miss A&E. Probably watch another episode of 24.

some threads are just affecting me today, must be hormones. am sad for you though mary.

thursdays did used to be good totp, kenny everett, young ones.

history of photography on bbc4 at 9 it's fab, if you are interested in this sort of thing
