TV For Grown-Ups

Turgid. Xmas Eve has a repeat of the Legends profile of Ella Fitzgerald on BBC4 @ 8.30pm. The only other music related prog is after that and is:

Mon BBC4 22.10 ~ 23.10
* Last Man In Hammersmith Palias
A celebration of the dance hall now sadly closed. Vera Lynn and Mick Jones reminisce (was Dame Vera at the Clash gig, then?) and other talking heads include Elvis Costello, who these days seems to be auditioning for the next series of Grumpy Old Men.

I hope you got plenty of DVDs for Xmas, for apart from a little opera (which I have to confess not knowing enough about to recommend) there's truly nothing on (Extras on Boxing Day being the only other thing I'd recommend) ~ and that includes movies, comedy etc etc. I mean, To The Manor Born?
