Grumpy Guide To Christmas BBC

[@TomTobin67]

"Sod off,Christmas!" You said it,mate.

[@reginalancaster5901]

I remember one Xmas shopping in the supermarket I was really stressed out. Then cliff came on singing that just put me over the edge I screamed turn him off everyone just stared at me

[@glenmorgan4597]

I'd thrown myself under a bus

[@hamsticklehq]

this is hilarious

[@elizabethbower2168]

This program made me laugh out loud… And I’m so grateful that I am alone and can spend Christmas doing my own thing… And not being forced to be polite or sociable or eat anything associated with Christmas

[@glenmorgan4597]

Good for you, i f*****g detest it

[@juliepeters3716]

The Christmas' I spent alone were the best Christmas' I never had.

[@Hypnobunny1]

I am a proper grinch at Christmas I hate it Love this specially when Ozzy says “ it’s bollox “ Love him 🥰

[@Fahrvergnugen]

I absolutely agree about the cruelty of forcing shop assistants to listen to Christmas music from October through January. It was so bad that when they accidentally played a Wurzels song, my heart nearly grew three sizes. The Wurzels, for god's sake. I Am A Cider Drinker. That's what we call rock bottom.

[@nicolepowell5470]

I loved this series. I work in a supermarket which is hard work can't enjoy it till i get home at 7.30pm on xmas eve.

[@leanneblake4248]

I'm a Grumpy & have always liked these series .So Thanks for sharing. . .

[@FACup-eu2dt]

3:50 "it comes and it comes and it comes," Oh, god, doesn't it just? Thank you Penny.

[@christianround2774]

This is the most British thing I've ever seen.

[@robertglenn5398]

Oh, man...thank God for this program. I was beginning to think I was the only one...However, my Christmases from now on won't be too bad, actually. You see, everyone is dead and now, it is just me and that is quite fine.

[@robertglenn5398]

hoopenhanger Merry Christmas!

[@eilidhmunro4470]

I watch this to make me feel Christmassy

[@somethingbright4268]

I blooming love Christmas pudding and buy more when it's reduced to have later

[@jackwatsonepic626]

I buy all my Christmas cards and Tinsel in January when it is reduced to pennies ready for next year to save money 🤑 ❤ from teesside 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 .

[@rah62]

I adore Geoffrey Palmer and his grumpy persona.

[@2100Rose]

The best Christmas program ever this . There was onece a time when I used to watch this anytime of the year .

[@deeptime5]

Yup. Christmas is fast approaching and it's time to give it another look.

[@RightWing1]

You gotta love Ozzy Osbourne, he's says what he means

[@alekadelacruz8592]

I love Christmas, although I agree with the tipping and the non-stop Christmas songs in the stores and shops 😂😁

[@purpleiceprincess]

i love these shows - literally laughing out loud lol

[@fernpeck]

The camel part. I just almost died choking on my coffee. Thank you for that.

[@BillCompo]

The best part of Christmas is when it's finally over 6 days later :)

[@victordevonshire807]

I've always liked Christmas even when I've had nothing. ❤

[@rbaxter286]

I am happier around the holidays, and can still be annoyed, but forgiving! A lot of the people here are like the US Northerners who complain that people are too familiar/fake in The South when they get 'accosted' by people who pass them on the sidewalk and smile, possibly even saying such heresy as "Good Morning", in addition. I got over it sooooo quickly when I just smiled and replied in such cases ..., and then realized how much nicer I felt afterwards!! Some people just refuse to give it a try and enjoy themselves.

[@tanyamaxwell-stewart7928]

love this, so funny and so true. I do Christmas on the 8th of Jan. Russian Orthodox.Great, calm , non commercial plus cheap and so much more fun, MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL.

[@MsFanmail]

just eat beans on toast for Christmas Day Lunch !

[@AmandaMatthews-sp5mo]

Brilliant. Made me laugh out loud! Hadnt seen it first time around.

[@Hypnobunny1]

Geoffrey Palmer love him. Legend!

[@karanaman68]

I love this series and good to see im not alone in loathing xnas

[@ASHEKEH]

I adore Christmas. I love buying presents, wrapping them whilst drinking heavily, of course. My mum also makes an amazing Christmas dinner, so I always enjoy that. No turkey though, we have pork and lamb. I don't know why people eat turkey if they don't enjoy it. I do love these Grumpy Christmas programmes though, because I can see the humour in it all and can understand why a lot of people don't enjoy it.

[@MsFanmail]

luv this programme

[@timmellor2599]

Geoffrey Palmer is the perfect narrator for this series. He already sounds gloomy reading his script. Jack Dee is another gloomy soul, but he would add a different gloominess

[@Fahrvergnugen]

Oh god, this is brilliant. I wish I'd known this was online about three months ago!

[@markie1990123]

Ozzy is just always gold 😂

[@robertsammons1]

Thank you for this. Really wish the new year one was available somewhere too.

[@tommyatkins2527]

I'm sure it is I prefer new years episode Plus it's true about nye

[@dartacus.spartacus1988]

Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄

[@rbaxter286]

Be prepared for a bunch of "Strong whines to follow!"

[@Dominator78]

Love it! Love it! Love it! Sums up the bullshit Christmas has become perfectly!!!!

[@vincentperratore4395]

Unscrupulous merchants and greedy middlemen have made the Season of Christmas what it is today in the minds of most people. This is not to mention the horrible and incessant cacophony that passes for Christmas Carols being blasted in every shop you go into, and which have nothing at all to do with the true meaning of the holyday! It's not for nothing then that according to statistics, more suicides occur during this time of year, by far, than any other!

[@summerreyes4531]

You should try having a Christmas birthday like I've got... Everyone's pissed off with the stress of it all and I just age without any celebration...

[@victoriamclaughlin6020]

I will wish you happy birthday when it comes. Though, it will be my timezone though so it maybe late or early. Depebding on where you live. :-)

[@adamgregory3536]

Happy Birthday to you :)

[@victoriamclaughlin6020]

Happy birthday :-) ♡

[@davidframpton8215]

I love Penny Smith. Straight talking, pretty, balls out, tells it how it is. Brilliant!

[@LizM894]

Thanks for cheering me up.

[@CARLIN4737]

I thought of you! Well stop thinking about me! Classic 😉

[@jackwatsonepic626]

I knocked on my neighbour's door. I said I was visited by three ghosts last night so that £10 you owe me forget about it (a Christmas carol) it's Christmas 😂 ❤ from teesside 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@leanneblake4248]

I live in Sydney Australia . All I can say is I have never or has anyone I know ever spent Christmas at the Beach. Yes it is True Bondi Is full of Pommie Backpackers & Backpackers in General. .

[@rnw2739]

Yeah? Well London is full of Aussie backpackers strutting about in flip-flops and them dopey Cork hats.

[@josephforest7605]

I live in Canada , no thanks to a beach Christmas . Give me the snow filled Canadian Rocky Mountains , the horse drawn sleigh rides , chestnuts roasting over an open fire .It defines Christmas celebrations .

[@NubianPrince85]

Tis The Season to be jolly....

[@tonymeademusic]

Ronni Ancona is gorgeous.

[@suzannesadiiqa]

Spend it in an isolated cottage with or without your husband and dog, plenty of gin and a few books a Fortnum's hamper, hot water bottle, roaring fire and it will all be over soon.............Bah Humbug!

[@halfpenguinhalflego]

+Sue Harvey Haha! Good comment, Sue!!

[@sophiegreen9463]

just luv this so funny great programme

[@snowmandanselzer7738]

In my family because Christmas is such a blur, we find that the season has passed before we've done half of the things we wanted to do. Some of my family don't really get into it, but me I just celebrate it when I get a chance to relax and be around people I want to be around. We don't often buy surprises that others have to pretend to appreciate. Most gifts become clutter. I figure that Jesus was already the most thoughtful gift, and he may have been born in the spring. We also realize on New Years Day that we forgot to send Christmas Cards. I am from the USA in case anyone wonders. I never had a truly British Christmas.

[@user-hb7ps1gv9x]

I used to see my window cleaner once a year two weeks before Christmas and that's the truth!

[@MsFanmail]

this series cracks me up can't stop laughing at this !

[@gagfails4985]

I love Christmas ❤ its the best tine of the year, ❤you need to live in the present moment. Its magical. I feel sorry for all these people. ❤😊😊😊

[@Decibel-S]

I SO love this one, :P

[@Decibel-S]

+Decibel Sandstedt In some wierd way... it makes me love christmas even more. Lol

[@MrMeadfoot]

The elf centre, i'm still laughing.

[@alwayswondering4051]

Whether you believe it or not, there are folk's who are truly and sincerely enthusiastic about the Christmas holidays, the psychiatric community. No joke. Way-back-when, we received Christmas cards that covered the livingroom walls. "Everyone Loves Us". Last Christmas we recieved Zero, null, 0, empty set. I'm crushed. 🙂

[@22BAANA22]

[@kirsty6005]

[@WaveWatcher10]

Love this! I can so relate!

[@Diggles1]

Fab - love this! thanks for uploading

[@woodyspooner]

I agree with everything that has been said in the video. Grumps should have a Christmas refuge, a Christmas free zone.🎅 🎄🥱

[@CoreyHopkins-vp1lv]

Thank you so much for this

[@daisytaylorjones3387]

great programme

[@MsFanmail]

luv this

[@MuckingAroundManila]

Ya'll have nothing to complain about. In the Philippines the Christmas season starts in SEPTEMBER and ends in fucking FEBRUARY. I don't know why people bother to take the Christmas lights down anymore.

[@WerewolfGuyyy]

i hate this day and i love watching this to remind me of why i hate it and everyone around me who pretends to like it when their just as cynical as me

[@ahtaimo]

BOXING DAY at 5:00am... says it all really

[@mrwhippy101]

This is awesome thanks man

[@brendankane1879]

T'was all in grumpy fun!

[@jojobrown2504]

Watch this every year lmaoo worked in retail and the weeks before are horrendous and having to listen to all i want for Christmas for 8 hours and spending Boxing Day and NYE working was crap lol

[@patrickadams7120]

I f**king hate Christmas and people already have decorations up and it's not even December.Time off work is the only good thing about it

[@Professor6871]

My favourite programme this. Required watching for every Xmas phobics out there including myself. Christmas starts so early now September in fact, that it has become ridiculous.The entire thing has become so commercialised now that any meaning it did have once has been lost. In fact its enormous conspiracy by the supermarkets and the capitalists out there, too get as much money out of us as possible by the 25th of December.Its supposed to about the birth of Christ not an excuse to see who can spend as much money as they can or show off their wealth, which in fact is what they are doing. I can't waite for dambed thing to end.

[@rafiqadarr6217]

I like Christmas pudding and mince pies. I am usually full up after the Christmas Day meal (who isn’t) but I will always have Christmas Pudding with custard, and several mince pies over the Christmas period. I always loved them, but somebody said years ago when I was at my works’ Christmas dinner, that it is unlucky to refuse them, so I never do. They are too nice to refuse anyway, I find Christmas pudd and mince pies comforting. 🥳

[@krix9100]

I actually like Christmas Pudding.

[@barbaravick5634]

Richard Trout I was so horribly disappointed when my mother's boss, a very wealthy Anglophile had a Christmas "pudding" with hard sauce sent to us for Christmas along with quite a few other goodies. It was horrible, taste, texture simply everything about it. Now, a British friend claimed it to be exquisite. He was either mad or utterly without a sense of taste. The ten pounds of pistachios and the twenty pound wheel of baby Swiss and other goodies were splendid. But God that 'cake' was awful. We told him we loved it though, just far less emphasis on it than all his other wonderful gifts. What a great fellow he was.

[@richardsanchez5444]

43:08 yes. Yes it is.

[@BeckyTheButterfly]

I did not understand a word Ozzy Osbourne said :( but laughed out loud on the rest of the comments :) I don't know why I discovered this series only now. so good

[@royk.8481]

+BeccaAgainstBoredom I have seen grumpy"" New year" years ago its still not on You Tube .One of the Questions was :Happy New Year?The problems you have this year are there again in the new year!!!(##%%$%!!fk!)No ffing Happy New Year!

[@BeckyTheButterfly]

Roy K. haha would love to see that!!

[@MsFanmail]

Ozzy is a legend

[@andrewpowell9304]

That'sSoBeki I’m from the midlands and understand him perfectly 😉

[@juttamaier2111]

When I was a practisng alkoholic, Christmas was great!

[@ecomoore]

I absolutely love Christmas. Father Christmas's Birthday :)

[@jackwatsonepic626]

Bah, " humbug 😂 ❤ from teesside 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@sockington1]

as a contractor, I used to look forward to christmas cos it was double time and I could dodge all the bullshit including my new year birthday

[@papapabs175]

It’s Saturday the 5th October 2024. We are hosting daughter & her Beau this year & already the Mrs is panicking. I’ve already being instructed to think of Christmas Eve entertainment, it’s bloody October 😩.

[@johnking5174]

"Christmas Eve entertainment" - well as much alcohol as they can drink, and Netflix, iPlayer, ITVX, KZbin to watch. That's it.

[@R_Jackson]

Only 21 days to go, have you thought of what you're going to do yet? 🙂🎄

[@maralisil]

The fresh tree is about the only enjoyable part of the holiday!

[@asedition8847]

Can’t wait for Christmas 2024…🤯🤯🤯

[@ravenstrobe]

@asedition8847 - You couldn't wait for it to arrive, and most of us here couldn't wait for it to disappear in the rear view mirror!😡

[@paulrichards6826]

People complaining about how irritating christmas is have santas and christmas trees, snowmen and elves and flashing lights in their homes. Just treat the whole load of bollocks with the utter contempt it deserves and ignore it.

[@josephforest7605]

No , I love everything that you have mentioned .Long live the festivities .

[@gina5432112345]

Thanks so much for uploading this. I`ve been trying to find this for ages. You don't have the grumpy guide to the eighties do you? If you uploaded that, it would make my week :)

[@FurryAminal]

I absolutely love Christmas, but I detest the forced jolity-on-steroids.

[@DreamBelief]

YES! I completely agree. I don't HAVE to like Christmas. It's my choice. Trying to force me to take part and to like it just makes it even worse and makes me dislike it even more. I have said so many things said in this to other people in my life about Christmas haha

[@daisytaylorjones3387]

Only 343 days to Christmas day 2017

[@royk.8481]

Give peas a chance!

[@Emtbtoday]

I'm so glad I'm not the only one like this haha! Fuck i just try sleep for 3 days till it's over and mid January yoj start to feel abit normal again its mind washing

[@MsFanmail]

20 Days left folks to Xmas day 2014

[@w-james9277]

Cliff Richard songs should not be allowed at all, especially during christmas.

[@danielwoodhouse8720]

I hate him aswell - something about him that's not right when your age 34 or younger

[@tommyatkins2527]

I can completely Agree

[@kellyvaters1689]

Will James I would sooner hear "Feliz Navidad" by Jose Feliciano on a continuous loop for 72 hours straight then endure more than one play of either "Merry Christmas Everyone" or _anything_ by Cliff Richard. In fact, I'd treat it as a game: if I walk into a shop that's playing either Noddy's screaming or Cliff's crooning, the poor sod who has to endure that for a shift gets a free Vince Guaraldi CD. Christmas calls for Charlie Brown music.

[@dmhq-administration]

I'm...NOT the Christmas type, except the food and pagan aspect of it, but not "grumpy" about it either! More like a sad time for Me for many reasons! "Christmas, SOD OFF!" 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 LOVE THAT BLOKE!

[@hamsticklehq]

this tv programme is perfect for a single lonely skint man like me :D

[@bran756]

I live on my own in the country with my dogs,I have always thought of putting a large notice on my front door stating...........hi all,I have got the most virulant,most toxic form of flue known to man,I am in quarantine,but please feel free come in.

[@tanyamaxwell-stewart837]

I love these progs so funny. The christmas thing has got beyond a joke. I am a russian orthodox, not that I pratice! one thing I do is celebrate their christmas 8th of jan. no stress, hassle, a great time to have friends to dinner, they are all knackered and enjoy the relaxed time they have with me. Take the nearest weekend if it fits better.

[@jackwatsonepic626]

Christmas is for kids when you get older you realise Christmas is not great time it's an expensive time it does give people the excuse to ask you for money which there wouldn't ask you in January I think as you get older you despise Christmas when you are a school child and everything is free you love Christmas ❤ from teesside 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
