But the most important thing, of course, is how you choose to entertain yourself.

Maybe you think ofGilmore Girls, set in the snuggest fictional town in television, Stars Hollow.

Maybe it transports you to happy times or hits just the right notes to leave you feeling chilled.

Jay Blades in ‘The Repair Shop’

Whatever it is, it offers comfort thats bone deep.

And they did not disappoint.

Below are some of the sweetest (and most surprising) answers we got.

Andrew Scott in ‘Handsome Devil’

Rowena Henley

Listen here

Handsome Devil

What do I love more than Andrew Scott?

Andrew Scott as a guitar-playing English teacher is what.

I stumbled acrossHandsome Devil, a queer indie Irish film, one day while mindlessly flicking through Netflix.

‘Circe’ by Madeline Miller

Its a delightfully cheesy coming-of-age story set in an all-boys boarding school.

I think it may be loosely based onLord Of The Flies but dont let that put you off.

Be prepared to fall in love with pretty much every character.

‘The Receipts Podcast’

I think I went through the full spectrum of emotions while watching this cosy classic.

So naturallyCirceby Madeline Miller is my go-to cosy read.

Plus it was also shortlisted for the Womens Prize, which speaks for itself.

The Doctor (JODIE WHITTAKER), Yaz (MANDIP GILL), Dan (JOHN BISHOP)

I cant get enough.

Soon she falls in love with the handsome yet quietly tortured veteran in town.

With hundreds of episodes to indulge in, I can always turn toThe Receipts Podcastfor some unfiltered honesty.

Ellen Pompeo as Meredith Grey & Sandra Oh as Cristina Yang in ‘Grey’s Anatomy’

Everything you could dream of for a peaceful autumn soundtrack.

Orla Pentelow

Doctor Who

Doctor Whois my favourite show ever.

Of course, herHercule Poirotseries defines crime-solving and mystery, with its amazing plots and easy-to-digest stories.

‘Collapsed In Sunbeams’ LP by Arlo Parks

Its a great way to fill a few hours and get back into some cosy reading.

is like a reassuring hug from an old friend.

And dont even get me started on the clothes…

Brandy & Whitney Houston in ‘Cinderella’

I am in LOVE.

Cola subdued, Sangria put a smile on my face, and Eugene brought back bittersweet memories.

WhenCollapsed In Sunbeamsdropped, its 12 tracks joined the playlist that traced my days and nights.

Both universal and hyper-specific, as she sings in Caroline, the music is intimate and peak cosy.

Sam Rogers

Girls From Impenema

Theres nothing I love more than a soapy period drama.

And thanks to Netflixs algorithm my horizons have been broadened beyondDownton.

One of my faves for both style and substance isGirls From Ipanema.

FromTotally SpiesandKim Possibleon Nickelodeon to absolute bangers on MTV Bass safe to say our minds were blown.

Forget the boring cartoon version, this was a tour de force of fantasy casting.

It had Brandy(!!)

in the titular role harmonising with Whitney(!!

), her fairy godmother, and it had Whoopi Goldberg(!!)

at her comedic best as the queen.

And for a little mixed race girl from a small Hertfordshire village, it really was magical.
