So you're equating cross-dressing with rape. Who are you, Vladimir Putin ?
No and no.
The story would have been just as "heartwarming" if they'd worn dresses in the second half and been beaten 12-0, but he didn't write that, did he?
They won, so everyone that mocked him was suddenly tolerant. Just like in real life :-)

I understand. In your little world, a drama can't be enjoyed unless you think it could happen in real life.
I quite enjoyed that although it did seem to me just a rewrite of Billy Elliot
I came to this thought too. I had initially thought this would be a story about a boy knowing from an early age that he wanted to follow a career that may be deemed by others for being more for women (i.e fashion), but being written by David Walliams, I should I have known better!
Not ashamed to admit I really enjoyed this, nice feelgood family show with the right balance of humour and sensitivity. Just the sort of show I think is good to have on at Christmas, certainly makes a change from old films and soaps filled with depressing storylines about rapes and murders!
And so PC.. all we need now is a Chinese transsexual in a wheelchair and they`ve just about covered the lot.
I saw five minutes of it before turning off. The very worst example of the BBC prancing about on its liberal soapbox. Almost enough to make me want to abolish the licence fee.
A harmless bit of Boxing Day fluff....... not sure why so many on here are getting their knickers in a twist over it.
Oh, and it's Ched Evans, by the way. ;-)
Actually Id probably agree. It pretty much wasn't doing much more than protesting against school uniform imo with a pantomime football game at the end.
Seems a lot of people are scared of males in frocks.
Scared has nothing to do with it. More bemusement at how something so utterly irrelevant to the everyday experience of most people could be made into a box-ticking exercise by the BBC and shoved on its main channel on Boxing Day evening.

I would imagine that a lot of people enjoyed the bit of fun on offer, it certainly went down here as we chomped on nibbles and chatted, I don't see what was so wrong about it... unlike the Who offering last night, which we had to turn off.

Pathetic. How can you say that based on 5 minutes. You probably watched it all.
Bloody hell, there's some miserable gits on DS, don't know why I continue to come here. For what it's worth, myself and my family loved this. It was a hour's worth of light-hearted fun.

I've said it before... it's trendy to hate everything.

No, it was five minutes. I'd just finished watching the lovely 'Puss in Boots' I'd recorded from Christmas Day and when I turned the recording off the channel was set to BBC1.
I knew what it was as I'd read about it, and saw Walliams as a referee at a football match with a load of male children in dresses (which sort of gave it away).
I saw from the end of the game until someone came over and told the kid that he couldn't keep the trophy as he was no longer a pupil at the school, then I turned it off. I did wonder who on earth was going to be watching it though. It'll be interesting to see what the ratings are.

Still pushing for that Critic of the Year award?
Only in David Walliams befuddled mind maybe, the Leftie Gay Elite at the BBC have excelled themselves commissioning this turgid hogwash.
PC obviously, but so is a large part of TV output.
There seem to be a lot of people not enjoying stuff on these threads.

Hasn't he previously admitted to playing for both teams?

BIB. Admittedly it seemed more suited to one of the children's channels but it was an okay time-passer if anything.
there had to be at least one 'Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells'-type goaded into action by this harmless fluff.

Yes. She was accepting because... Well, why not?
I liked the uncomfy questions posed by the film. Quite clever. Let down by poor acting.
