Christmas TV 2007

These first draft schedules are never correct.

How very boring.. *yawns* I hope BBC One is better than that.

I'll expect to see a Strictly champions spesh instead of Maria V Joseph in this slot (also extended to 60 mins) when the real listings come out.

And when some people will be cooking (or starting to cook) Christmas Day lunch - what a rather odd time to schedule a cookery programme. I think we'll see Bing or Fred here at that time...

I don't see the point in these early listings, usually they are about 5% correct. lots of TBAs, and even the programmes that are named usually end up on different days, different times or not shown at all

You'd think even with these unconfirmed listings they'd at least make them look appealing. The BBC's is the worst for years - absolutely nothing special at all.


Re: Strictly - I notice the provisional listings suggest the final will like every other round be split over the Saturday and Sunday - but surely for the final at least they'll do the results show live.

Embarrassing schedules to be honest. A lot of that is made up rubbish. I'll await the official listings from the RT.

What does the Sunday Mirror guide say for Five on Christmas Day?

I'm surprised to see how ''ordinary'' BBC2's xmas schedules look this year. Looking at them schedules you'd have thought it was just an ordinary fortnight.
The schedules overall look very weak and poor quality to me.

Why do the soaps always clash in these preliminary schedules? And where is Strictly Come Dancing?

My prediction (rough, ignore the 30 minute News stuff, it's hard on a spreadsheet to do less than 30 mins)

Can someone post the Christmas Eve schedules please? I forgot to get a Mirror today...

Listings for Channel 4 up to 4/1 have appeared on DigiGuide today.

Is it me or is it all happening very slow this year?
