Quick heads-up for bobo. The multi-talented Gina Yashere is on Come Dine With Me later this evening. Should be compulsive viewing especially as mirth-master Paul Tonkinson is on too.

Seeing as bobo had a marathon session watching Nigella last night, I imagine his right arm is probably still too weak to be able to even change channels to catch this.

New version of Ben Hur on next Wednesday. I'll be watching that, though I doubt it'll touch the original.

cutting edge drama...

watched the Muppet Christmas tonight...

(it's been recorded on the Humax for the last 2 years - but the menu only allows a certain number of letters for titles - so it always appears in the list as "The Muppet Christ" - which is what we now call it...)

Since it's Christmas Eve, Mrs Tango has got the Baileys and chocolates out we'll be watching The Spiderwick Chronicles. Well, you do things like that at Christmas, don't you? :D

I'd be happy to try it, Tango - if only I could ever find the end of this fecking Sellotape first! :hang:

Oh my giddy aunt - Channel 5, how low-budget can you get? Eddie Stobart's Christmas Delivery - hardly Ice Road Truckers, is it? Flick it on now to believe what's passing as television this Christmas eve. Eddie Stobart's drivers deliver Christmas trees in standard conditions! :lol:

It's on now, see it to believe it!

Dam. Forgot about that. Saw it advertised after Morecambe and Wise, watched the kiddie-film then it slipped my mind. A comedy genius was old Les. Loved his piano "recitals" that could only have been done by someone who actually could play the piano very well.

Anyway...watched the bits of Pride and Prejudice that dealt with actually making the film. The way they transformed places like Chatsworth House etc, to suit the film, was quite amazing. They built rooms within rooms so that nothing of the original was changed or damaged. Some very talented people in the British film industry. Intruiging stuff.

You missed a treat there, Tango. I only caught it by accident myself. There was one joke about blowing a candle out that had tears rolling down my face. Brilliant stuff. We'll never see his like again.

No it wasn't.
