Captain Phillips was fantastic. Really can't remember the last time I watched a poor film that starred Tom Hanks.

Robot Wars was disappointing, so much filler! Should've been half an hour long instead of an hour.

Jonathan Creek was quite good I thought. The mystery itself was weak and it's one of the few I was able to figure out before Creek, but despite that it was enjoyable enough. I think it helps that Renwick didn't direct and if the budget is still half that of the old ones then it didn't show.

I thought JC was pretty so-so but I enjoyed it nonetheless. I might appreciate it a bit more with a second viewing. The mystery was definitely too weak and relied too heavily on the killer's back story.

Hold on, there was a new Jonathan creek on this xmas?

Edit, just googled it and it was on tonight, I had no idea.

Mrs Browns Boys - 6.13 million
Coronation Street - 6.12 million
Call the midwife - 6.06 million
Eastenders - 5.9 million
Doctor Who - 5.7 million

Britain's biggest benefit scrounger The Queen received 8.1 million viewers, but that was split between BBC and ITV
