I didn't bother looking after hearing most of the programmes on the BBC this year are repeats...but...the Queens speech won't be a repeat and then there's always Freeview and Sky for those spending Christmas and New Year here in the UK I'm going to Tenerife on 28th for 11 days so don't plan to watch much TV.
And Happymarion has just watched "Loving Miss Hatto" and thoroughly enjoyed it after a hard day's baking. If all the Xmas programmes are up to that standard I will be very pleased indeed. As Miss Hatto kept saying "It is all in the music"
I agree Marion - what a lovely & different programme Loving Miss Hatto was, and as Lazy Gardener mentioned there are some very good radio programmes on offer also. Martin Jarvis reading a "Just William" story on Radio 4 yesterday evening was brilliant and absolutely cracked me up and there's another one next Sunday evening to look forward to.
I enjoyed Miss Hatto too. Watched Downton, Shrek and the witch on the broomstick. A big kid at heart! Stayed up late and watched Cold Mountain, which I really like. Now that we download films or watch DVDs, the big film on Christmas Day just isn't the same now.
