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.

    • 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.
    • The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again! 
    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet.
