I was enthralled by Twitter and then revolted by it. I then deleted my account. And I haven’t missed that rubbish platform one little bit. At all

Love love love this podcast. I’m almost upset that I’m all caught up because I can’t binge it anymore!

I haven't watched this episode yet but just read the comments and look forward to the Hallmark Xmas movie discussion. I live on the West Coast of Canada where some of these films have been shot...it is always fun to walk by a lawn in July covered in cotton batting "snow".

I love how the crew laugh in the background 😊

Marina's pause after Piers Morgan's name was mentioned was absolutely fascinating. He's an ex boyfriend I believe? I suppose if I'd gone out with him I wouldn't want to talk about it either.

It's mid-April 2024, and I am catching up on who the monsters of UK life & Pointless have been. Streaming is only something I've done via iPlayer & Sounds just to get some benefit from my tv licence.

Richard Osman, "I got in to television because of family." Now I want to see Richard heading up the next Fast & Furious movie.

Hey Richard, Hey Marina, Just discovered you and I’m thoroughly enjoying your company! Currently chomping my way through your back catalogue…. Loving it! 🤓👍👌

One thing to add to the Hallmark Christmas film.. They find a contrived way for the city slicker to lose their Blackberry. Maybe it falls in a lake? Or maybe a child picks it up thinking it's a toy while a super duper important phone call comes through. Resulting in the high flying lady boss to lose her rag, snapping at the poor child, making them cry and resulting in a regret filled apology. Now the high achieving spinster must decide what makes her happy? Will she learn the most important lesson. To live in the moment, to switch off your phone... While eating a pain au chocolat the size of a large toddler. While living with the humble fourth generation delicatessen owner, Johnny Croissant.

Sold! You're a genius! I can't write enough big cheques for you!

For those of you who like the show Friends. You should be watching a show called Living Single. It’s the show the creators of Friends ripped off.

Nice swerve by Marina about Piers Morgan.

Just had to google Winter Wonderland, is it full of fake snow and ice. I live in Norway 🇳🇴 these days where you can find real snow and ice.

Okay, you guys inspired me to watch "A Castle for Christmas" , Brooke Shields, and look who has a speaking role in the first minute: Desiree Burch! Yay! This is going to be great. And we all know what a great succes the Drew Barrymore show is. I'm writing this the 31 december. New years eve is tonight. Some would say christmas is over, but then others would argue that the christmas season runs through to 6 january, the epiphany, also called three kings' day.

Woohoo. Loving the pod. Only watched the first episode yesterday and already fully caught up. Keep it up ❤

Marina is Piers Morgan's best friend according to the acknowledgements in one of his books.

Tinker. Tailor. Soldier. Christmas. It writes itself!

Robbie is late-40s here - he turned 50 this year. The grey hair ages him a lot and he has some chronic health issues (a bad knee, arthritis in his back, low testosterone) that affect his energy levels.

Love this podcast informative funny, addictive. Everything you said about the Dodgy Christmas movies is so true. I love them too

I think I saw one of these Christmas movies you are discussing, it was called Doc Hollywood. But on a more serious note I did once have an accidental kiss, where I went to take a sip from from my soda at the same time that my blind date also went to take a sip from her soda. I don't think the rest of the theater would have had such a strong reaction if it hadn't been right at the one unfunny part of Life Is Beautiful.

The hallmark channel and the sony channel equivalent start broadcasting their Christmas movies in August. Awesome info, about 9 acts and the18 minute "almost kiss" Ive worked from home while my wife watches these in the living room and i can confirm everything said here is true

xmas movies writers must be pissing themselves about chatgpt - unthreateningly familiar passability is AI's featured product

Well done chaps

They have a great user interface. Hulu, Max, and Apple have a horrible interface for users.

As someone who goes through retail hell every Christmas, I look forward to Marina's Christmas comedy movie. Escaping Christmas is my experience every year!

Grrrrrrreat!

Cary Elwes' Scottish accent isn't too bad really. It's just not an accent that a single person would have.

Scottish Dukes go to private schools, basically he'd sound like Alexander Armstrong

So these hallmark Christmas movies sound like they put a Richard Curtis film into the Trainspotting pigeonhole

Will Smith & Marina collab? Please! i've been saying "more will smith" since "the Tao Of Bergerac"

I absolutely hate American Hallmark films, just grab the bucket and the remote every time I find one. Die Hard is my favourite Christmas movie.

Its not a Christmas movie. Even bruce willis says so. But only social media could bring this up as an issue.

Girls are watching Friends instead of reading books like girls used to read Jane Austen instead of classics in ancient Latin.

Females statistically read more than males...

OK, as a member of the Sussex Squad, those of us who love Prince Harry and Princess Meghan and their work, will let out the not so secret secret 🤫! In response to the horrific treatment by the British media and unroyal leftover family, Sqaddies across the world, turned their back on the English kings coronation and began rewatching SUITS! The more than 3 million of us told 2 friends who then told 4 friends, etc…..🤗

No offence but Meghan is a narcissist. Harry has been manipulated.

They didn’t have any horrific treatment. The truth is Megan had some American Disney image of being a princess and when she realised that every aspect of her life was going to be controlled by a very certain etiquette she kicked back like a spoilt child. The problem is Harry was just too weak to lay down the law to her. He will come back because he has lived his life knowing what is expected and unchangeable about being a royal and Megan will get kicked back into obscurity to live as an ex royal.

​@@teddyr7391You deprive Harry of agency. I reckon he also wanted out and got out.
