It does get a little trying for Mr M though, but he watches it with Miss Em and suffers in relative quiet - most of the time. Sometimes he just can't help himself and will make a comment like "...and he'll open the cupboard and find the thing in there" or perhaps "When she opens the box she'll see it's exactly what she wanted".
When such things come to pass there are questions from Miss Em. "How did you know, Grandpa? How did you know it would be in the box?"
"I wrote the script." he said and she asked no more.
Fast forward to the following week when Miss Em is at her own home and is watching Christmas 24 with her Mummy. "This is my favourite Christmas film EVER!" She said."Oh really?" said Mummy "Why do you like it so much?"
"Grandpa wrote the script" she replied, rendering her mother speechless for a moment.

OMGosh! That is hysterical! My husband says almost the same thing. His exact words are "I could have written this script." Sometimes it drives me crazy because I didn't see it coming (whatever it was he was commenting on).
You have got to scrapbook this story before it gets away! Perfect journaling for a photo with Miss Em and Mr. M together.
Grandpas know everything :)
