Page 10 of Christmas TV - anything you`re looking forward to?

Big Fat Quiz of the Year was as good as you'd expect, nice to see a different line up again.

Christmas Would I Lie to You, wasn't very Christmassy, but was as funny as normal.

Mark Gatiss' ghost story this year was quite good: Count Magnus

Also over Christmas BBC4 showed his theatre adaptation of A Christmas Carol which we intend to watch sooner or later:

literally the only new thing I watched over Christmas and New Year, was Julia Donaldson's, The Smed's and the Smoo's, and The King's Speech (not the film) the traditional 3pm Christmas Day viewing.

Sign of the times.
Watched no Christmas TV at all.
Just streamed a few things when time allowed.
Almost more old fashionedy this year just family yakking as you no longer have to finish the scoff and shut up as James Bond's about to start.

Kings speech?
Sorry no. Never used to watch his mum either you always got the salient points on the news anyway.

Yes, both were great.  Shame we couldn't have Bob Mortimer on WILTY again, I love how David just can't read him.  It was great having him and his wife, Victoria, on the same team.

Not when it's live but will definitely be catching up with Dr Who.

Does anybody watch live Christmas telly these days?

my parents, the old boy next door, probably not many between the ages of 10-70.

what I normally find is over Christmas holidays, I'll be sat on sofa in dining room, while they are on their laptops, tv will be on, on one of the kids channels, then if i see a film is on, i'll switch to that, I think last year I watched both Paddington films, Big Hero 6, and some others, only time I watch "live" films!

after the Inside No9 programme the was an advert for Mark Gatis' Christmas ghost story on tomorrow night, so set the cable box to record that.

apart from Wallace and Gromit (so anticipated it's got 2 threads) I'm not sure what else is on I'm bothered about. Hopefuly a Big Fat Quiz of the Year, we like that.

Never watched Gavin and Stacey (not sure if I ever tried it) so not fussed about that.
