Perusing the Christmas Radio Times your wish is going to be granted. Also a drama featuring them with Suranne Jones playing Angela Ripon and recreating that dance sequence.

I think they are THAT good that many of the younger generation do understand how big they are and they can continually repeat their shows.

Ah memories. We played Bring Me Sunshine at the end of my dad's funeral. Not a dry eye in the house.

Remember them doing a sketch when Eric quipped "I've been to Middlesbrough!".
Can't remember the whole spiel though.

They were once an essential part of Christmas.
Everyone seemed to love them.
Happy memories.

The pressure on them, Eddie Braben to produce a top notch Christmas show was enormous. It was said that in some quarters Christmas was judged to be successful if M&W produced a good show! Now that was pressure!!!

My kids love them when I stream their Christmas shows. They cut across all generations. Whilst many comedies age badly M& W are timeless. Genius is well described above.
