I really don't see the point of these TV listings guides. Like we are all going to sit around the TV on Christmas Day with one of these.

'What's on next Dad', 'Well on ITV1 it's To be Announced and on BBC One the film that was actually on yesterday.'

Very useful

I really can't see Carlton not having a Xmas edition of Crossroads on, I really can't. I'm actually looking quite forward to seeing what'll happen...

Lets face it thats pretty likely, but as always ITV going with WWTBAM and the beeb going with aunties vague cock ups because we've used all the good one, oh please.

Crossroads isn't scheduled during Christmas Week, but apparently Patrick is due to be killed off before Christmas ! Not that I watch it. Oh, and Corrie fans, Dennis will be killed on New Years Eve.

I'm not a soap fan..... no not me...... no

Blah blah blah soaps blah blah film that's already been on 20 times blah blah more soaps blah blah totally uninspired charity game show blah blah more soaps blah

Is this *really* the best they could come up with?

I swear they put so much more effort into the Christmas schedules 10 years ago. But then I guess they put more effort in generally back then so this is no surprise.

Ah well, roll on the cheap crackers and the burnt turkey. Humbug...
