I was really looking forward to Mackenzie Crook's latest installment of Worzel Gummidge after last Christmas' delights. I was not disappointed...fantastic Christmas TV with wonderful acting and great music. If you didn't see last year's they are on the i-player. Hope it won't be too long till we see another outing of Wurzel on the Beeb.

Not sure what to watch when there's no football.......
Plan to re-view The Mandalorian, one episode a night, back from the start, might stick to that with the teatime soup.... long wait till S3 after all!
Been trying with Ridley Scott's Raised by Wolves but.... all a bit grim and monotonous isn't it?
Pixar's new one "Soul", attracting rave reviews and apparently more Adult-Oriented, is premiered today on Disney+....so that might be the tv/cinematic** treat tonight...anything to lift the gloom after dark, after the long walk...
(**Its all eliding now...)

Caught the end of An Taistealaiche/The Far Traveller on BBC Alba the other night and Mrs C and I decided we would look it out on the i-player. It's the story of Guðríður Þorbjarnardóttir who crossed the Atlantic 500 years before Columbus and whose stories are recalled in the Icelandic Sagas. Once we got through the early parts talking about her forefathers, who were slaves of the Vikings, the tale of Guðríður was fascinating. I had always thought that the tales of the Vikings crossing to North America were sort-of mythical. I had not realised that there had been a viking encampment found in Canada. According to this fine programme Guðríður Þorbjarnardóttir was the first European to give birth in North America. Towards the end of her life and after her return to Iceland, she journeyed to Rome on pilgrimage. Really enjoyed this programme.
