Outnumbered is well past its best (and it was never particularly good) - don’t think there was anything bad for kids, apart from the fact that it just wasn’t particularly funny at all.

inside no 9, #pogdogs, that chernobyl documentary on bbc4, big fat quiz (was shite), saw half of the outnumbered special (jesus) and the first bake off ep.

taped the agatha christie and the gordon buchanan elephant thing

gonna watch david blane and the celeb robot wars

Cool. My eldest has recently discovered it and thinks if is brilliant. As an alternative to youtubers I am all for it but as it was on at ten I thought maybe it was adult, luckily just not good. They will love it anyway…

wish it was Terminator vs Love Actually

monster’s university is on bbc1 on sunday (is it any good?)

it’s decent as far as animations go, nowhere near the level of the better pixars though

as aggpass says, it’s decent and enjoyable but it’s not one of the top tier Pixars.

I think the Outnumbered special would be fine for kids, nothing particularly offensive that springs to mind!

I quite enjoyed it, probably more than the last special (whenever that was?)…

Doctor Who was a bit pants and the preview for the new series looked quite underwhelming.

Just watched the Raymond Briggs 'Ernest and Ethel and thought it was charming.

It’s been terrible since the first few Julia Sawalha episodes

I presume nobody’s insane enough to watch Charlie Brooker’s Newswipe (or whatever it’s called these days) whenever it’s on

Was on earlier apparently (8pm), I’m going to with it on iPlayer.

Think there was the odd swear word. Nothing harsh though.

The Bob Monkhouse comedians gig on Boxing Day (bbc4) was best thing I’ve seen over xmas.

Seen snippets in some documentaries in recent years but was first time they played it all. Funny and intestesting, can’t ask for much more

Enjoyed Witness for the Prosecution (although the first part does nothing on its own other than set up the killer second part).

Maigret was good.

Doctor Who OK

Saw The Lion King for the first time. Liked that.

Jonathan Creek was terrible. I always get excited, and it’s always terrible.

Christmas bake-off was enjoyable, yet I don’t understand why profiteroles were considered a festive desert.

No. 9 was good. Burnistoun delivered. Bake-off was bake-off. Dragons Den was hilarious/ridiculous. Uni C was all worth it to see Val school Steve Bellend. Enjoyed Revolting Rhymes. TOTP was weird. Looking forward to Brooker.

Robot Wars is INFURIATINGLY UNDERWHELMING.

Have mostly been watching The Out-Laws on Walter Presents, The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret, and Hitchcock (NxNW, Notorious and Family Plot).

Have Veep, Up All Night, The Night Manager and Inside Out to work through on DVD. Also, Narcos, Black Mirror, etc queued up tha 'flix.

Enjoyed Inside No 9 last night, excellent 70s feel.

Outnumbered was ok, made me mad that they were obviously in Autumn when it was supposed to be Boxing Day.

Doctor Who - Really enjoyed this actually, yeah its the light fun episode they often do or xmas but as its the one time loads of people who don’t normally watch it actually do (i.e. my parents) so fair enough.

Inside No. 9 - enjoyed this, suitably dark and apparently they used genuine 70’s cameras, costumes etc so they really nailed the period feel.

Don’t think I’ve watched anything else. Will watch Screenwipe when tv is free.
