    I'm compiling a list of tv specials to watch in the run up to Christmas. So far my list is pretty short, so I'd welcome any additions.
    1. Blackadder
    2. Bottom (Holy)
    3. Extras
    4. Gavin and Stacey
    5. The Good Life (Silly But It's Fun)
    6. Knowing Me Knowing Yule
    7. Lead Balloon (Nuts)
    8. Morecambe and Wise (1977 seems to be the classic)
    9. The Office
    10. One Foot in the Grave (lots to choose from)
    11. Only Fools and Horses (a few to choose from, but probably the Time on Our Hands one, the proper end of the series)
    12. Outnumbered (again, couple to choose from)
    13. Rev
    14. Some Mothers Do Ave Em
    15. Steptoe and Son
    16. Two Ronnies (a few to choose from, but no idea which one yet)
    17. Victoria Wood with all the Trimmings
    18. Yes Minister (Party Games)

    No Vicar of Dibley, Catherine Tate or Royle Family for a reason, but feel free to add for your own list :)

    I'm sure there will be "instant classics" this year in the form of a Citizen Khan Christmas and Mrs Brown's Boys At Christmas :(

    The West Wing always had some nice christmas episodes but the series never seems to be on TV these days.

    Adding a few...
    • Fast Show Christmas Special
    • A Very Sunny Christmas (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, the only US show on this list, although Community did a few specials, so if I'm short, I might add one or two of them)
    • Yes Minister (Party Games)
