Christmas Vacation, bit of a tradition in our household.
So many phrases are now integrated into our conversation. The dogs got a bit of Mississipi Leg Hound in him,if he gets your leg ,best to let him finish Clarke.

Yep. This film goes on when our christmas tree goes up, and will then be watched numerous times.

I bring gave news. After a cursory glance at the Radio Times two-week special (only £5.95), it would appear the The Great Escape is not on this year.

However, for those needing their shot of nail-biting p.o.w. drama, Escape to Victory, the story of plucky British prisoners, (like Pele, Ossie Ardilles and Sylvester Stallone), satisfaction is assured with a showing on C5 at 4.50 on the 27th.

Spoiler Alert. In the final scene, a pitch invasion is highlighted by some of fans seemingly wearing Adidas gear.

I think Buzzer and John Wark count as possibly British.

It was Allies, not just British soldiers

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

The Poseidon Adventure, Where Eagles Dare, Magnificent Seven, Spartacus or The Fall of the Roman Empire, and hopefully the odd Hitchcock and some Sherlock Holmes and something spooky.

Depends what’s on/which dvd I can find/stream.

Topped off with the Wizard of Oz and El Cid…

[staffsblue]

All the stuff I've meant to watch on catch up all year as the mainstream TV schedule looks absolute bobbins.

 

[Idesofmarch69]

The Great Escape is on tonight ides.

Albert Finney in Scrooge. If you don’t love that, you’re dead to me.

Oliver, same deal.

A pale imitation of the real version with Alistair Sim.

 

[Stephen Ireland's pants]

Snatch hopefully. Not the version with brad pitt .

The wizard of oz followed by Jason and the Argonauts. As a kid back in the 80s these were films that were shown on Christmas Eve and were both brilliant. Might even have to throw Sinbad film in there too.

Whether it be a tv show , a particular episode or a film, whats the one thing you watch every christmas without fail. For me its die hard, an episode of ofah and a really obscure chris addison sitcom called labrats which has absolutely sod all to do with christmas i just watch it cos i always have.

For me; we watch films all year round and there is nothing I particularly want to watch at Xmas.......except for Life of Brian.

However, TV Wise:

Only Fools and Horses - The trio of episodes that were released "Cops and Robbers", "Time on our hands", and the other episode which I cannot remember the name of which was ultimately the climax of it all.

Any Vicar of Dibley is always up there.

Blackadder goes forth - Everything about blackadder just got progressively better as the series went on. The first one is pretty awful, the 2nd one is quite good, the 3rd one is taking it up a notch and by the time it gets to goes forth it takes it to a new level.

Going to throw Mr Bean in there also and Fawlty Towers is a nobrainer.

Edit: I have a soft spot for Casablanca. Not sure why, I just think everything about the film is brilliant.
