So where is Victoria Wood special

Just what I was about to ask. I thought it was airing at 9pm on Christmas Day.

Much good it did them as well. TV Burp is very cheap to make and was dumped as filler opposite EastEnders, emphasised by the fact it was repeated in prime time three days later. Dancing On Ice didn't do very well either, Strictly beat Corrie but that did next to nothing opposite 'stEnders.

Victoria Wood's going to be on Christmas Eve, I think. You don't want to overload Christmas Night with stuff and it's probably better it goes out in primetime on another night than at half ten or something on Christmas Day. That'd just be a waste.

What about the "Best of the Hour 2009"!!??

BBC1 showed their first Christmas trailer tonight showing their films.

What time was that? My recordings for 17:15 and 19:30 failed
