Anyone got a preview of the RadioTimes front cover yet or is it too early? Last year's RT was pretty bland to be honest.

Yes, it wawsn't the nicest Christmas Cover they've had. All their covers are not a patch on the classic ones of 1981, 1982, 1983, 1987 and 1988. 2003 was their best recent cover.

Prefer the 1977 cover, myself.

They were going through a bit of a blue and white phrase in the 2000s until last year's which was far too much based on a single programme

The one used in the year 2000 wasn't exactly Christmassy

There are xmas specials of My Family,Doctor Who, The Vicar Of Dibly and Green Green Grass this year!

Doctor who will for sure be on xmas day at 7pm (my guess) one of the 3 sitcoms will get shifted to christmas eve/boxing day I think...

If people want (to save them buying The Mirror if it's not really their cup of tea) I will do my traditional posting of the TBA schedules for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day on here as a spoiler... It might not be until teatime though as I'm off to work at 7:30 these days and collect my paper on the way in to work (can't post the schedules while I'm at work as TVF is blocked by the Websense filters!)

I would hardly call any of that a spoiler, considering most of non-obvious choices are "TBA" Rolling Eyes

EDIT: The original posting has now been updated, but all the listings were hidden in spoiler mode...
