On the question of the Harry Potter film rumoured to be going out BBC One this Christmas. Sky Premier 1 has it in it's schedule for Christmas Day at 6pm.
Isn't this fairly unprecedented, a Sky subscription channel and the BBC showing the same film on the same day ? I presume that with Sky listing there showing at 6pm, the likelihood is the BBC will show it straight after the Queen to avoid a clash.
I think people have got a bit confused. The Harry Potter film is
not on BBC One
this year. I think it will be on 2005 actually, though I'm not sure about that one.

I'm almost certain you're wrong- the BBC paid extra for an earlier showing of the film than they normally would get.

Well maybe I am - Or maybe I'm not. The big film this year on BBC1 is Meet The Parents. Certain now?
Well, I've never seen them, and TV and Radio bits is the only site I've found with any old schedules on. I'd like to see more sites with old schedules on.

Don't the TV Room website have a few old schedules on their Plus section?

So on the two most watched terrestrial channels (BBC1 & ITV1) it doesn't look too bad... But in my opinion Five is probably worth a miss this Xmas Day... And of course there are more soaps than you can wash yourself with (can't they give these a rest at least one day a year for God's sake?)
Note that the programmes above aren't my particular favourites, I've just tried to pick out something for all the family, and I've included all the films that have been announced as being shown on Chistmas Day.
Of course, these listings are subject to change in the next couple of weeks.
