So what do you reckon about the first glimpse of this years specials? DESPERATE!!!! Comes to mind!


Confused Shall we cancel Christmas ?

It does seem a bit lacklustre. What is it that it is missing from previous years though ? I can't put my finger on it.

I'm not impressed by BBC1 at all this Christmas, I hope UK Gold will be showing repeats of 70's Christmas comedies. Oh wait BBC2 has done that every single year!! Rolling Eyes

Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em overload Rolling Eyes

I remember Christmas 2002 when BBC2 had late night comedy evenings during the run up to Christmas starting at 11.30pm with 'I Love...[1975 etc]' then The Office series 1 and 2 and Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

I swear to God if they show the Some Mothers and Porridge Christmas specials again I'll scream!! The only thing I'm looking forward to is The Goodies (I went to the recording) but how can you have a Goodies night at just two hours and then not show an episode!?! Evil or Very Mad
