Advantages: Ok if you are alone, Can be company, Informative

Disadvantages: Annoying, No conversation, To many channels to choose from

Well we all know that as Christmas is nearing the good old BBC and HTV/ITV will in their wisdom put on the repeats again.

But hey! I still love to watch the Wizard of Oz, how many of you guys can truthfully say you have never watched it more than once, and why? Because it is a classic. Unfortunately they don't make films like that anymore so we do tend to suffer some terrible repeats.

But on the up side there has been a few good dramas been shown over the past few years too. Did anyone see Ebenezer Scrooge last year played by none other than the old Grant Mitchell himself, now I really enjoyed that it was yet another classic tale but with a totally modern theme to it. Very good I thought, now this year we have a drama with David Jason and I must say it, on preview it tells me it is like the tale of Oliver Twist, we shall have to see, a typical Dickens edge to it I think.

Don't get me wrong the new films, well I say new. The likes of Toy Story, which is being shown on Christmas day, now I enjoyed that too but for different reasons I guess, it made my children laugh and when something does that then it is worth its weight in gold.

The home alone movies classic films for Christmas day, I bought a video from Wollies the other day just for the children to watch and it was fab, all about Santa who lost his memory because he was going to fast in his sleigh and fell out and landed in New York. I could watch it again if you want a film to get you into the mood then go and get Santa Who, a very funny yet touching film.

Don't knock the old classics and repeats they are not always bad you know, just remember that the memories of your Christmas are in your heart and in the people who you share Christmas with, too much TV does kill the art of conversation I know, BUT DON'T LET IT. Enjoy the season because the next one will be here in 12 months and you will be left wondering where has this year gone to? Happy Christmas everyone. <

You may want to check your spelling in this op - it has the potential to be useful! and no, I don't ever want to watch the flipping WOO ever again. Ever!
