Ghost Stories for Christmas: Lost Hearts. A young orphan goes to live with a wealthy and eccentric distant relative, only to begin seeing spectres of previous "wards" with a terrible warning. Creepy adaptation of the MR James story.

One Foot in the Grave: The Wisdom of the Witch. The 1995 Xmas special and probably the best (along with Starbound). A cracking good laugh.

Just watched the latest episode of Discovering Film on Sky Arts, this one about Harvey Keitel. This is a strange programme. I always feel they gloss over or completely omit really important films. In this one they found time to discuss his very minor roles in Wes Anderson's films but didn't even show a frame of Bad Lieutenant, one of his best performances. And to not even mention Monkey Trouble is unforgivable.

Wicked Science: Jack Makes His Move. Increasingly disconsolate over Toby and Nikki and the growing realisation that Toby might never want to be with her, Elizabeth is easy prey for a manipulative Jack. Initially agreeing to "hang out" solely as a last-ditch effort to try and make Toby jealous, Elizabeth is soon sucked in by Jack's seemingly sincere attention and affection, much to Verity's horrified disbelief, and even lets him into her secret lab...where Jack finds exactly what he's looking for: The secret to how she and Toby became geniuses. The first part of the 2-part finale is great stuff. It's telling how much Elizabeth is in desperate need of some positive attention and affection, and rather cruelly ironic that it's her softening this season that makes it so easy for Jack. Anger-driven Season 1 Elizabeth wanted fame and fortune and power, but all she's wanted this season is someone - preferably Toby - to share things with. Poor Elizabeth.

It’s a good series, slow and not a lot happens it’s more to do with the storytelling, if you’ve got letterboxd read the reviews most are reasonable decent.
