- The TV show that I watch to bring me joy... - This is a bit of a guilty pleasure. - I always re-watch
Sex In The City. - Would have to be Frasier. - Would probably be South Park.
- It just feels very comforting and nostalgic and yeah, I just love 1990s Carrie Bradshaw.
- There is nothing quite like the sheer glee of finding a Frasier that you haven't seen before.
It is just like the best thing. It's like finding chocolate that doesn't put weight on or booze that
you can drink without getting completely drunk. And yeah an episode of Frasier that you haven't
seen before is magic. - I know it's really crass sometimes, I know it can be really un-PC but
I think sometimes you just need a really good laugh and you need to be able to laugh without
the boundaries of propriety sometimes. - I always re-watch Brooklyn Nine-Nine.
I've watched every episode and I continue to watch every episode. I never get bored and I'm never not
in the mood for it. And it has brought me hours and hours of joy. - Probably Friends in the main, because
I mean, it always makes me feel great, even though I've heard the, you know, the sequence of
gags over and over and over again. - I think TV is really special in that way, that it can bring you
joy when you've had a bad day or it feels like
a hug. - My Italian other half is obsessed with it and at the moment, because our daughter is seven,
she doesn't understand any of the sexual things or swearing or whatever. So
yeah it's the kind of thing we have on in the background, we're all just noodling around.
And I just don't think it'll ever get old. I think they're all just absolutely brilliant. - I always
re-watch a lot of British comedies so Brass Eye, The Day Today, The Armando Iannucci Show,
on like 120 pixels on YouTube because those are the only places I can find them. - If I were to pick
one the TV show that I always go back to is Black Adder which was a show I grew up with. - It's
the old comedies of your childhood that you don't keep watching over and again but when
you do they do lift you up. - There's something about the chemistry they all had just makes me laugh
and now reminds me of my childhood which was a very long time ago.
- And it's everything from Terry and June to Yes Minister that just kind of brings back
laughing with your dad and mum. - RuPaul's Drag Race. So I hadn't seen it which is crazy because
all my friends are well upon RuPaul's Drag Race. So while I was filming Gentleman Jack
I would get home after filming, get in the bath put my iPad up and I watched 13 seasons
of RuPaul's Drag Race. Made me laugh, made me cry, uplifted me. Just brilliant. - The TV show that I
always rewatch is The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills because I like to just get transported into
this ridiculous world that they live. And it's just outrageous and campy and silly and fun and
it's light-hearted. But also it's a lot of drama so it makes you feel a bit better about yourself
sometimes. - My family have very different tastes. Trying to pick a film to watch on Christmas Day
is like pulling teeth. But we always just resort to going and finding whatever channel
Keeping Up Appearances is on as it tends to just be on at some point in the day any time. And
there's nothing that makes us all die laughing like that. It's a very communal laugh that show.
- I think now the TV show that we would all watch you know, myself, my husband,
my mum, my dad, my daughter would probably be Curb Your Enthusiasm. It's so funny,
so cringy, so clever. And I honestly don't know how he gets away with it Larry David but he does,
thank the Lord, because it is in a class of its own. - A TV show that unites my household probably
from childhood it would be The Simpsons. So whenever The Simpsons came on it was always
after school and my parents would come home from work and we'd all just watch it together. So now
whenever I see The Simpsons I feel extreme sense of nostalgia. - Growing up I was always watching
EastEnders and Coronation Street. I remember like Mondays when it was like 7:30 till 9 o'clock,
you'd just watch them back to back. So we'd always come and watch that. So whenever I go home, back
to visit my family, my mum's always got like all the soaps on. Straight away EastEnders comes to
my head. I think that was one that as a family we would always sit down and watch. But I think over
the years, I think it's Strictly, to be honest. When my mum will watch it, I'll be watching it, it's
like getting on the phone straight afterwards and having that conversation, who I thought was best
that week, who she did. So I think it unites people in a special way. - TV show that unites my household
without question is Strictly Come Dancing. We changed our plans to be there. So yeah, we get in.
It's very important to be watching it live as it goes out. - So when I was a kid I'd
say a show that unites our household would be Wildlife on One. I just think
whenever I hear David Attenborough's voice, there is something so hopeful and nostalgic about it.
He represents now and our future but he also you know, I was born in the 80s so he's kind of
soundtracked my entire youth. - One of my fondest memories of sitting down to watch television
as a house was watching Idris Elba's In The Long Run on Sky. Because when it all came out on Sky at
the same time, we just sat there for hours and we just watched it from the beginning to the end as
a family. I think it was before the lockdown happened that we did that. But it was
just, it's just a beautiful memory you know, of my dad, my sister, my mum all sat there on the sofa
being engaged, laughing along, feeling like a connection, seeing our family or a version of
our family or people that we know on screen, you know, felt very comfortable very at home. So In The
Long Run i's definitely... when I think of watching TV as a family, that's one of the first memories that come to mind.
