Had a look for a post but seems I'm the only one with a VoD guilt secret!

So was quite looking forward to the new Christmas Specials this year. Watched one, it was utterly utterly dire!

Did anyone else watch more, and did it get any better?

Didn't enjoy it at all and I am a big fan of the original series. Actually tarnished things for me, a bit like the Matrix sequels....

I saw a couple of them I think, but they weren't anything special.

Didn't tarnish it for me because it just was so very disconnected from the original as to appear unrelated.

Did find it utterly bizarre though. Quite surprised Dawn French agreed to it. Must have paid well...

Tried watching them as the wife enjoyed it in the past........ What a load of cack! Even Mrs Mcphisto said on the BLM and remembering cast members episode, "switch this off it's ste" Think we only managed to sit through the first one.

We’re these the ones where it was just Dawn French to camera or wa that some kind of trailer?
Either way I turned it over after about two minutes.

Shame as we both really liked the original Vicar of Dibley

I guess it all ticked a lot of boxes for the BBC...
