Christmas Links #20


"Hello and welcome to our round-up of the funniest things we’ve seen on Bluesky over the past year."


Editor's Note:  I'm experimenting with Sill (not not that one) which filters your BlueSky timeline down to just the links and it's turned this up, the modern equivalent of the old BBC tapes.

"Following such a lovely positive response to last year’s 1974 edition, I’ve created another special time travel listings magazine. Once again, you can travel back 50 years into Christmas TV’s past. The Christmas Radio TV Times gathers together numerous TV programmes from Christmas week 1975, across both the BBC channels and ITV."

"Celebrate winter - and NOTHING ELSE - with our list of recommendations."

"The 72-year-old dubbed Britain's most festive man has put up 25 Christmas trees – but admitted he had to "downsize" this year."

"After watching The Avengers’ Too Many Christmas Trees for Telefantasy Time Jump‘s Christmas Special (out…sometime this month!! I should really check these things), I felt compelled to return to a few Christmas telly favs to try and life my mood during this week of Eternal Rain and Wind and Grey Omg When Will It End."

"Gather round the fire, everyone, and let me tell you a story. It has everything you could want in a Christmas blockbuster: superheroes and villains, a car crash, children singing, a mystery to solve and even a cameo appearance by Bart Simpson."

"From a John Cusack 80s teen comedy to the other Frank Capra Christmas crowd-pleaser, here are some seasonal picks you might not have seen."

"The risk of having a heart attack or stroke rises during the holiday season, with a spike in cardiac deaths between Christmas and New Year's. "We definitely see it in the ER over the holidays," says Dr. Donald Lloyd-Jones, a cardiologist who leads the Framingham Heart Study at Boston University School of Medicine."
