Listen now
Description
The main series may be over, but we’ve one more festive treat. Guy and Rob joined by actor Monica Sagar to discuss the divisive Christmas classic on its 20th birthday, Love Actually. We also get stuck into the Vicar of Dibley Christmas special, which is perhaps the most tonally similar to Love Actually of all of Richard Curtis’ TV work.A movie that’s been reappraised by both its cheerleaders and detractors over the course of the past two decades, Love Actually has also caused Richard Curtis himself to address things he would rather have changed with his time again. With a multitude of plots, some classic rom-com, some a bit more esoteric, and some just downright weird and difficult to defend, our panel try their best to revisit with an open mind to see where it will place in the final league rankings of series one of Britcom Goes to the Movies.We will also crown the series one winner of the Britcom Goes to the Movies quiz. After episode 10, Guy led for the first time in the series, but who would come out on top?Vicar of Dibley Christmas Trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTon56Kb3P0 Vicar of Dibley Christmas Special – Sprout-offhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ck4qRdfGCURed Nose Day Actually Trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z9vGoj449s4Love Actually Trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H9Z3_ifFheQLove Actually – Dancing Prime Ministerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcgxBHBsl-4Love Actually – To me you are perfecthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B7u6bMBlCXwLynden David Hall – Sexy Cinderellahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqmsWk2gO3oMartine McCutcheon – This is my Momenthttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jG16jv-itYw
