I belatedly hope you all had a happy x'mas and wish you a merry new year, in the company of beloved ones AND good comedy!

This is the time of the year when we have the longest holidays and the worst weather, in the (relative) west at least, which means we'll spend lots of time indoors, eating, drinking and generally being merry in good company, but we can't do that ALL the time, if only for dietary reasons , so what are we watching these days, after the kids have gone to bed and uncle Albert has passed out, utterly plastered?

Last year I had an Ealing Comedies "theme" for my winter holidays, this year I expanded into more old British comedy movies, taking the usual advantage of Amazon's x'mas bargains, here's what I'm watching:
