Tonight, I am finally going to watch it all together. THE FUNNY SIDE OF CHRISTMAS has short episodes of such series as ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES, BUTTERFLIES, OPEN ALL HOURS, and more. This seems like a pretty good way to spend a Sunday evening! #RadioTimes listings. #BBC #FunnySideofChristmas

Tonight's Christmas episode of PARDON THE EXPRESSION saw some very familar foes take over the store. It really must have been something to have been a part of Dalekmania in the 1960s. #PardontheExpression #Granada #ITV #ArthurLowe #Daleks

Today is the start of my Doctor Who Marathon: Day One. For me, Thanksgiving weekend is always linked to Doctor Who because of the wonderful Chicago convention Visions in the 90s. I decided to take a weekend of doing nothing and having good food while watching my favourite show!
