Looks like ITV1 won't have a movie premiere of Love Actually on Christmas Day, as it premieres on Wednesday 6 December at 9pm.

Well as usual the Sun claimed to be the first with a Christmas TV Guide today - but it wasn't listings, it was just highlights of what was going to be on - so I didn't buy it... The Mirror didn't seem to have the early listings in it today, so maybe it'll be next week?

I got the Sun for the Christmas TV Preview - have to say apart from a couple of things there is nothing special on this year.

Yeah only major cities like London have them on the Saturday. Other places get them on the Tuesday, including South Wales.

Laugh at how the Sun claim they had the "First, Best and MOST ACCURATE" guide in today - yet no specifics at all!

Anyhow from the early tasters there seems very little of interest - it's been a few years now since we've had a good Christmas TV line up I think!

Well they are the only paper who had it so thats why they said that. Maybe the other papers arent bothering, afterall the early tv guides are pointless. Might as well wait for the official tv guides.

What sort of shows were there then?

Isn't there a new Vicar of Dibley this year?

Don't forget to have a look at this Sunday's papers just in case they have early schedules in them...

Interesting schedules. Look pretty accurate and how id expect them really. Peak time from Boxing Day onwards hardly looks different to how it is nornally which sounds about right.

Interesting there is no CITV in the afternoons from 2nd January onwards and we get a 2 hour Inspector Morse from 4pm instead.

Well that's the Christmas Radio Times ruined then

Nobody can wait for anything anymore can they

Plus I'm sure leaking an entire schedule like this is a sacking offence
