Films

A Close Shave (1995)
[3rd or so watch]

More Wallace & Gromit, of course. Gotta wait til Saturday for Curse of the Were-Rabbit to be on TV (I could watch my DVD, but why when an HD version is imminent?), so I'll probably go out of order and watch A Matter of Loaf and Death before then. I don't think it really matters.

Fiction

Sherlock Holmes: Crimes for Christmas by Derrick Belanger
December 17th: The Cudgeled Constable
Dr. Watson Takes the Case

This book also includes the latter as a bonus story, after the end of the 'advent calendar' part (I skipped ahead). I assumed it would be something seasonally appropriate, but aside from a one-sentence mention of winter at the start, the tale has nothing to do with Christmas or even winter. Ho hum.
