It won't be long until C4 weekends are as random and uninteresting as ITV's - the worst thing they ever did was commission Sunday Brunch. Considering OFCOM have been on C4's case this year about increasing the 16-34 audience on the main channel ditching the brand aimed at the 16-34 audience seems rather foolish, even if T4 needed a bit of TLC rather than just being left as an outlet for US and E4 repeats. It wouldn't have taken much for it to attempt to recapture past glories - T4 has kind of always been based around one or two flagship shows airing alongside the Hollyoaks omnibus.
Christmas highlight for me, was the Channel 4 menu struggling to render this morning. This was just after Gordon Ramsey's programme, which was also quite good itself. Nice to see a channel doing something live on Christmas day.

Yes, I didn't notice it in the schedule till this morning. I enjoyed it last year too. It's not one you need to be into cooking shows to enjoy either.
Indeed, it really was quite good. They had a good mix of guests and it was generally entertaining. And they didn't do that thing where the main topic, the cooking, becomes side-lined to the celebrities new book.
