More QUESTIONs...sorry guys...


So just wondering if anyone one knows if it will aire again anytime soon?

reply

Umm.. I don't know about where you live, but here in Califonia I think it'll air again Sunday, April 30th at 1:00pm.. Maybe its the same wherever you live... Just out of curiousity, how many people here are from the UK? I kind of get the feeling most of you are..

Also... What's Boxing Day? Is it like Superbowl Sunday here, where there is a big football game? And Boxing Day is just a big boxing teminate?

reply

I'm sure someone actually British can answer this better. To my American understanding, Boxing Day is the day after Christmas, Dec. 26, traditionally the day when gift "boxes" (often money) are given to the people who perform services for one -- nowadays, postmen, hairdressers, trash collectors, friendly tradesmen ...

I suspect that in Hardy's time it was more a custom expected of the landed gentry and much more according to social class, so that box recipients were servants and dependents. Who can help me out here?

No problem! I hope it shows then for you too! I taped it but when I did, the tv was reallly stacticy (is that a word?) so I wanted to retape it.. I think there might be a website you can go to, to check

I hope its the same where you live.. It might be, because the site didn't ask me to type in my zip code or anything...
