Same here. I'm loving it all, but that "Jazz" spoof was a killer!David wrote:I always thought I didn't get The Mighty Boosh. I got that.

I usually have an aversion to cute animal videos but what the hell? If you can't post one at Christmas when can you post one.

(Mind you - Teddy (!?) is probably saying - you're not getting any of this, so you can jog on, lady!)
I'll see your porcupine, John and raise you some pandas!

I love Stan and Ollie's hats, and the whole family gathered around to enjoy the cute animals. (Cute animals. Honestly. What's become of us?)

Here's a seasonal black comedy horror film from Finland that's on the telly tonight, Rare Exports: A Christmas Tale.
An archaeological dig in the world's largest burial mound uncovers the still living Santa. He's kidnapped by some locals and they attempt to sell him back to the corporation sponsoring the dig.....and then the elves come to free their master.

Oooh, is The Spiral Staircase on too? Not a bad film, that. I see they've got a short season of early Hammer films on too over the next few days.
And, of course, a seasonal M.R. James adaptation, by Mark Gatiss this time round.
