I'd just send him to the Sentinel Islands and be done with him.

Christmas Day on BBC One

From 3:10 to 4:45 that's quite strong

The worst part of the whole festive period is when my mum and wife force me to watch Call The Midwife with them.

Had a run of having to watch Downton Abbey every year. I'm glad that seems to be over. Absolute bilge.

I would double like this if I could. The secret of eternal life lies in Call the Midwife, because the episode I watched could not possibly have been less than 10 hours long, yet only 2 had passed when the closing credits rolled.

Ridiculous! Should be The King's Panda

My Dad used to have to sit through Call The Midwife. I once asked him how he coped and he said “I just stare at the cars when the shot is outside and think of the cars when it’s inside”, which is a bit like looking for the helpers when they’re showing traumatic events on the news I guess

I’m one of the lucky ones that has never seen an episode. It must be tough, you don’t even get the relief of a few adverts to break it up like Downton 

[Surf Digby]

I don't dislike Call The Midwife per se, it's just that every episode seems to be exactly the same story, just with a different disease, or a different family of impoverished kids.

Could also be a Jesus fucking Christ contender. This is just twenty minutes of what is apparently a four hour conversation. Forget Frost/Nixon. We have Barton/Icke.

Putting their heads together and sounding like a bowling alley.
