THURSDAY 29
WEDNESDAY 28 Live At The Apollo BBC2, 10pm It’s a Christmas Special at the landmark comedy venue, with Crawley’s own son Romesh Ranganathan hosting the celebrations. Joining him is Brighton’s Seann Walsh – nice haircut, dude! – as well as Kerry Godliman and the surreal comedian Spencer Jones. Plenty more ho, ho ho’s here.
Jonathan Creek BBC1, 9pm Sometimes a place is just plain spooky. It doesn’t need to have stories of a 19th century sorcerer playing with the powers of Hell and telekinesis, the very idea of a 1970s schlock horror filmmaker taking up residence there is the cherry on the cake of scariness. But it all adds up to a fine JC case.
