Favourite film, A Month in the Country, based on JL Carrs exquisite small books about the summer that followed the Great War. Superb cast, Kenneth Branagh and Colin Firth before he was a star, practising his Kings Speech stammer, and Natasha Richardson. Just a small perfect thing.
Willy Wonka (the Gene Wilder one)
Bridget Jones
Brokeback Mountain

fave TV series
Sherlock, Brideshead Revisited, Pride and Prejudice, Flambards

Comedy:
anything with Sue Perkins in it, Eddie Izzard, Billy Connollys world tour of Scotland, Peter Kay.

Not in any order of preference;
Films
Fried Green Tomatoes
Boys on the side (always makes me cry

)
Postcards from the Edge
Philadelphia (another weepie for me)
Lord of the Rings
Harry Potter - all of them (probably Order of the Phoenix & Deathly Hallows 2 are the best)
Series
Merlin
Call the Midwife (though the trilogy book is better)
Miranda (hysterical

)
