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.

    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
    • Hi, My two years old nephew is a complete bookworm and we are looking for more books for him. Is anyone selling or giving away any books please?    Thank you.
