Show notes:

Is there to be no end to these excellent Christmas rom coms? Spoilers be damned, we loved this gay ass film.

We mention the film While You Were Sleeping (1995) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114924/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), which was the subject of our previous episode, the TV series Schitt’s Creek (2015-2020) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3526078/), which features Jennifer Robertson as Jocelyn Schitt, and the films Dumplin’ (2018) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4878482/), Hocus Pocus (1993) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107120/) and Sister Act (1992) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105417/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1), which all star Kathy Najimi.

Here is the definition of ‘plant gay’ in the Urban Dictionary: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=plant%20gay and their definition of ‘guncle’ is here: https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=guncle.

Next month we are planning to watch Sleepless In Seattle.

We record these episodes over the internet. Sometimes the audio is not perfect. We apologise for that.

Music in this episode is by Martin Zaltz Austwick (martinzaltzaustwick.com). Artwork is by Lisa Findley.
