Not sure about ITV though. Some years they make the effort, some years they don't.”

I would like to see these as they are the best and most successful financially. The other two are not very well known.

Are you sure. I remember seeing Caraline and Aliens in the attic but not Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

There's also a mobile phone version which I'd like your feedback on as I have no idea what people expect from mobile versions of websites! There's also an RSS feed if you want to be automatically alerted when there's a new update on the site.

This is just the first version of the website - next up are comments and ratings systems, together with photo albums. There's a message form on the website to send me feedback on, and I'd love to know what you think of it all!”

Good site, I'll visit it now and again over the next few months.

It's alright, you don't need to apologise. Gosh, if it's on Channel 5, it will take forever to get on TV!

This is like the official opening of this forum!

Anyone care to speculate yet what the Christmas Radio Times' cover will be? Wallace and Gromit? A Dalek?

The Christmas QI was recorded today, presented as usual by Stephen Fry and with regular panelist Alan Davies.

The guests were Sarah Millican, Danny Baker and Phil Jupitus

I wouldn't be surprised if Doctor Who and his new companion are on this year's cover.

What date will the Christmas Radio Times come out. Wasn't it about the 13th December last year

It was available in all regions (or should have been) by Wednesday 7th December and covered 17th to 30th December.

As this year's issue will cover 22nd December to 4th January I would assume it would be available in all regions by Wednesday 12th December. (London on Saturday 8th)

Hopefully a traditional cover like last years for me.

I like those dates better. Didn't like how last years came to an shuddering halt on new years eve. Far better when it covers Pre Xmas to Post New Year

I didn't realise they filmed it so early!!

Hopefully a traditional cover, perhaps an update of some of the earlier ones!
