I've not enjoyed much "light entertainment" on the box lately


Miranda was double-awful, as was pretty much everything else


However, Cuckoo on BBC3 was IMHO bloomin excellent


(staring that guy who looks like a giant Rik Myall)


You can still see it on i-player

Anything else worth watching ?

Have to admit, although I adore Miranda, her Xmas offering was a bit insipid.


I enjoyed "Restless" which is a William Boyd novel helped by the delicious Charlotte Rampling and sexy Rufus Sewell (when are they bringing back "Zen" with those impossibly thin and beautiful 'Italian' women?).


Yesterday I died on the sofa with a box of tissues, lemsip max and a duvet and nodded off and on to a whole afternoon of NCIS which I love but can't begin to explain why.

Christmas is the worst time for TV..


Just repeats of 30-40 year old programms (Morcombe & Wise)

Christmas Top of the Pops.


When you have seen every Carry on film so many times you know the script.


Xfactor...Xfactor Xtra... Xfactor best & worst ...


and then the Pubs close...


Fox.

After a couple of weeks in NZ I'm celebrating the choice we have in the UK. Every night here is a rip-roaring combo of Border Patrol, Police Rescue, High Country Rescue, Animal Rescue, Zoo Babies...


Having searched the (limited) Sky Channels I was pleased to find UKTV, only to despair at the 10 year old episodes of Changing Rooms.

    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
