Black Narcissus – BBC One HD

https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2019/01/Black-Narcissus-09a7f99.jpg?webp=true&quality=90&resize=620%2C413

Airs: Sunday 27th December – Monday 29th December, 9pm

This year’s big prestige drama from the BBC comes in the shape of Black
Narcissus, an adaptation of Rumer Godden’s 1939 novel about growing
tensions within a small convent of Anglican nuns.

The creative team have their work cut out if they are to top the previous
screen version of this story – the 1947 Powell and Pressburger film of the
same name is widely considered one of the best films of all time. But this
new version can certainly rely on a talented cast – with the stars including
Gemma Arterton, Alessandro Nivola, Aisling Franciosi, Jim Broadbent, Rosie
Cavaliero and the late Diana Rigg.

Mortimer and Whitehouse: Gone Christmas Fishing – BBC Two HD

https://images.immediate.co.uk/production/volatile/sites/3/2020/09/20913044-high_res-mortimer-whitehouse-gone-fishing-s3-4aaaa93.jpg?webp=true&quality=90&resize=620%2C413

Airs: Wednesday 23rd December, 6:30pm

Over three series, this gently profound series has become one of the very
best shows on television, and Bob and Paul are back for a festive special as
they fish for Grayling in the River Esk and Tees in Bob’s hometown
Middlesborough.

At the same time Bob aims to bring some Christmas job to Paul – who has
grown cynical about the commercialisation of the festival – by hosting an
office party for two, cooking a memorable Christmas dinner and getting
together with local lad Chris Rea, who provided one of the most enduring
festive pop songs of all time.
