Strangely enough that was why I started rewatching

Netflix
The Great British Baking Show Holidays
Series 8, episode 1 - The Great Christmas Baking Show

I imagine that the the British Wrong Planet aliens may enjoy the opening more than I could appreciate it.
I may have the dialogue wrong because sometime my hearing/word processing ability, cover your eye children, Crap. I put (???) after questionable words.

A guy and a woman is walking down a lawn. "Perfect day for a Christmas stroll, aye Nat?" "Init (???) Dane (???) as long as we don't run into any of that riff-raff from Rivendale (???)."

The another woman and guys walk up and the two groups start fussing and feuding.

Then Noel Fielding and Allison Hammond walk and Allison points out "Christmas is not for violence, guys."
Then the person I think is named Dane says "Is where we come from."

So Noel and Allison mention something about Soaps so the bakers might be actors from competing soap operas, or maybe the same soap opera, but are adversaries. I don't know exactly. I just suspect that if I were British, I might know who the people were. That information is not in IMDB yet, so I'm at a loss.

Now I say "braggedly" (I made that word up) IMDB is not going to hold me back. I found this article ‘The Great British Baking Show: Holidays’ is Back! (Now With British Soap Stars).
The article says this -

I think my ears/brain mis-processed a few words. I suspect "Rivendale" is actually Emmerdale.

I plan on watching some more Red Dwarf later today. Currently, I'm watching (it is paused) The Great British Baking Show: Holidays.

It really bugs me when I type something and forget a word. Example.
It neither of any good to get distracted by this.
should have been, and I was thinking it at the time, but just did not type the word...
It does neither of us any good to get distracted by this. (this=the video I attached)

HBO Max
Fallen Angel (1995)

Film made in Hong Kong.
I'm not sure if I'll enjoy this film or not. I suspect I will enjoy it on some level, but it will not leave me feeling warm and fuzzy. It think it is categorised as a comedy.
Note: no sooner had I typed "comedy" when pistols came out and guns started blazing.

HBO Max
Chungking Express
The previous movie ended (about 30 minutes ago) without me noticing, and this one, by the same director Wong Kar-Wai, started.
Except for the French fries being eaten, I am not finding anything of interest.

I think Red Dwarf is calling me....
