Anyone remember this little gem? Compulsory Xmas tv in my house, can't wait till tomorrow to dust the VHS player out!!! I bet I get 5 or less replies!!
I love it too. I taped it (tut, tut!) when it was shown on the telly, more years ago than I care to remember, then last year finally transferred it to DVD. I hadn't watched it for a long time and it was quite nostalgic. Alan Cumming looks like a wee boy in it
I remember this, well I didn't, I remember Lenny Henry in it, and him washing his hair in the toilet bowl. For years, I didn't know what the programme/film was called, then someone was talking about Bernard and the Genie and it clicked that that was what the programme with Lenny Henry was.

I also remember this fondly, and have a tv recording on VHS buried somewhere
I bought a DVD version off Ebay a few years back as my VHS copy had worn out.
It's not an official BBC version and looks like its a straight transfer of an average VHS recording. But it does the job every Christmas
There's usually one or two copies knocking about...
