It looks like Marilyn and I will have an extended Christmas this year. We’ve come across a collection of TV Christmas Specials on Acorn TV, there are 19 in all so, if we dole them out carefully, we might retain the Christmas spirit for up to a month.
We watched Hercule Poirot last night and a Brokenwood Mystery this afternoon so we’re off to a great start. Others we look forward to include Miss Phryne Fisher, Detective Murdoch, and The Detectorists. We’ll have covered the UK, New Zealand, Australia and Canada before we’re finished. I wondered why there are no US productions in the collection until I realised Acorn TV is about the UK and its one-time colonies.
No doubt, if I look harder on the internet I’ll find some cheery US offerings as well.
Happy New Year, whoever you are!
