Christmas TV 2007

EastEnders is definitely two episodes this year as confirmed by the executive producer earlier this year. More likely for BBC One:

3.00 The Queen
3.10 Top of the Pops Christmas Special
4.10 FILM: Finding Nemo
5.40 My Family
6.10 BBC News
6.20 EastEnders
6.55 The Green Green Grass
7.25 Doctor Who
8.25 Strictly Come Dancing
9.25 EastEnders
10.00 Not Going Out Christmas Special
10.30 BBC News, Weather

But I thought that there was to be no TOTP this year as mentioned earlier on this thread.

I heard there was... maybe not though. Perhaps I'm thinking of last year. Anyway, this year I don't think Emmerdale should go head to head with Doctor Who, no point in taking a complete battering, so maybe something else should go in its spot. It's also good for soap fans not to have two solid hours of Emmer/Corrie.

Something like that would be good.

Do we think Parkinson will get a Christmas night special to finish off his final series now he's finally retiring again?

(until he unretires a couple of years later of course)



This really is a pretty pointless thread though when you think about it - we pretty much know the key components of BBC1 and ITV1's Christmas Day schedules will be the same as the last couple of years.


So how about the other channels - what do you think BBC2, C4 and five should be offering as an alternative?

I thought soaps are on for an hour on xmas day - people making timetables for Channels like BBC1 and ITV are making them half an hour. Why?

What day do people reckon High School Musical 2 will be on BBC One? Last year High School Musical was on Dec 29 which was a Sunday.

BBC Two should be showing Da Kath and Kim code sometime over Christmas too.

When does the Christmas Radio Times come out? A must have every year.

Probably Tuesday 11th December

If High School Musical 2 is on any time near this Christmas, I will put a hammer through the TV and then discharge the CRT into Zac Efron's heart. The last one (and the few seconds I saw of this one) were abysmal.

I think Green Green Grass will be on at 3.10 in the afternoon like last year again (which I felt was a shame because I thought it was better than the one from the year before - which was on at about 8pm).


Oh and a minority thing but a christmas episode of Brainiac doesn't look likely this year does it.

I have some bad news...
