Russell Grants Christmas Stars

Great to see Russell Grant still plugging away but the missed opportunities will always plague him

A uk version of the Minority report with Russ teaming up with Roger Cook to proactively identify criminality would have been box office, I’m just sad their respective ego’s didn’t allow this meeting of minds to happen.

 

[Skaville]

Mrs Brown's Boys x 2 (Confirmed for Christmas Day & New Year's Day Time TBC)


I mean, does ANYONE find it funny?

I know someone who was directly involved in the commissioning of it. I gently had the same conversation with them.

They explained that commissioning at the BBC is not about personal taste, it’s about finding something for everyone.

It’s a show on the decline. It was the most watched programme on Christmas Day in 2017 but didn’t hit top ten last year. However, it’s clear that some people really do find it funny.

 

[Muzzman]

Where's 'The Bill: Jingle Bills'?

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Paddy McGuinness spreading himself across our screens on BBC and ITV over Christmas, Crodo you must be delighted to see this this British comedy great getting the exposure he deserves?

Mrs Crodo and I are big McGuinness fans, the louder and more Lancastrian he speaks the funnier he gets.

 

[Mr Bridger]

Piss off.

 

[Guinness Boy]

You'd have thought he'd have seen them coming......

 

[POSKETT AT THE VALLEY]

Morecambe and Wise, Fools and horses specials?

 

[Greg Bobkin]

This next schedule could be Yuletide-defining

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

I am assuming that the inclusion of Mrs Brown's Boys is why this thread has been tagged as [Politics] rather than [TV]?

 

[kevo]

No decent ghost story?

 

[southstandandy]

The worst time of the year for TV. 2 weeks of no TV just plenty of food and drink (other than a bit of footy).

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I hate to break it to you @crodonilson , it's Freddie Flintoff taking on Bullseye. McGuinness would obviously be far better.

But what a lineup as you say. Death in Paradise Xmas Special being the pinnacle.

 

[BN9 BHA]

Some crackers on there Crodo, definitely looking forward to Loose Yuletide Women

 

[sparkie]

That looks total shite.

I reckon I'll binge watch The Expanse instead.
