TV

Crooked House
Part 3 The Knocker [final episode]
Short series of three horror tales set in the same house, by League of Gentlemen co-founder/member and Doctor Who & Lucifer Box writer Mark Gatiss, also showing as a portmanteau horror movie on December 27th.
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

Doctor Who [new]
4x14 The Next Doctor [Christmas special]
Possibly a bit low-key for the Christmas Day episode, with a disappointing underuse of the Cybermen. Not sure about that finale either. Planet of the Dead is a good title for the next ep though.
[Watch it (again) on iPlayer.]

Gilmore Girls
5x08 The Party's Over

Strictly Come Dancing
2008 Christmas Special

Wallace and Gromit in A Matter of Loaf and Death
[#88a in 100 Films in a Year 2008]
Hurrah! Absolutely brilliant, though it was so packed with things you can't help wishing it were longer. Another Oscar nomination? It would be deserved.
