Yay! Eclipse!

Huh??? How is that possible? My sky+ box will really be knackered on Christmas day! I'll be recording so much stuff!

Not necessarily. And even if it is, they'll just censor them even if shown later because more people are watching. Xmas is a shit time for films on TV in that respect.


ITV never have their big films on Xmas day. No major advertising.

Doesn't stop them putting their most watched drama series Downton Abbey on.

Anyway, according to Digiguide that is when and where it will be shown. Not confirmed yet of course.

Death To Smoochy is a premiere for Film 4, heck, E4 even list a film as a premiere for the channel even though it has already been on Channel 4 or Film 4 before it.

I wouldn't class Death to Smoochy, Age of Consent or Mr St. Nick as "premieres" in that sense. I'm pretty sure all 3 have been on one of the 5 main terrestrial channels before, well, maybe not Mr St Nick, but that's a made for TV movie anyway. Death To Smoochy has been on Channel 4 before, I remember recording it and then getting it on DVD because I thought it was good.

Xmas update! These times will likely change. Anyone know why ITV have suddenly got Disney movies, anyone?

Saturday 22nd December
10.00am-11.45am - Space Chimps (2008), Channel 4
8.10pm-10.00pm - A Christmas Carol (2009), Channel 5

6.45pm-8.15pm - A Christmas Carol (2009), BBC1 - This is the same listing as the version on Channel 5 on Saturday, I don't know which one is correct

Christmas Day
3.10pm-4.40pm - Shrek Forever After (2010), BBC1
3.20pm-5.15pm - Tangled, ITV1 - In the listings is a 1996 movie of the same name, i've read recently that Tangled is going to be appearing on ITV1 for some reason as opposed to BBC, don't know the reason for this, anyway, listing this as the Disney film, not the 1996 film.

Boxing Day
4.30pm-6.00pm - How to Train Your Dragon (2010), BBC1
7.20pm-9.00pm - Alice in Wonderland (2010), BBC1

1.25pm-3.25pm - City of Ember (2008), Channel 4
3.00pm-4.55pm - Secretariat (2010), BBC2 - I don't know this to be a premiere, but I don't remember it being on at all, and the year perhaps indicate it is, it's not listed as a TV movie either, so I guess it's a premiere.
3.55pm-5.40pm - The Sorcerer's Apprentice (2010), BBC1
11.00pm-2.40am - The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009), Channel 4 - Swedish original

New Year's Eve
8.30pm-10.15pm - Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (2010), BBC1

10.55am-12.30pm - Race to Witch Mountain (2009), BBC1 - Not sure if premiere
4.00pm-5.30pm - The Princess and the Frog (2009), BBC1
6.30pm-8.00pm - Up (2009), BBC1

Phew.

The original Girl With The Dragon Tattoo has been on Film4 before, so isn't really a première, it's sequels however have not
...
Monsters vs. Aliens was a big première on BBC1 last Christmas day
...
I know that the BBC play Race to Witch Mountain out every christmas, but I think it's normally the original rather than the remake so it's probably a première

Is this the one with the Rock? Pretty sure that premiered last Xmas/New Year

Why are Disney films on ITV? What is the new rule? I thought it was new: BBC and old: C5 but obviously something has changed, so can someone explain the new rules?

Maybe ITV have recently struck a deal with Disney, just nothing has been announced yet?

RtWM is a premier for BBC1, as i taped i when skymovies were doing a free weekend

a LOT of movies over the xmas period that i haven't got, so my poor video will be working overtime ..... first in a LONG time

Here then is another revised update. Special thanks to Corabal and others for corrections and contributions!

Note - Premieres listed mean they have never before been shown on terrestrial tv. I list made for tv movies. The biggest issue is some guides/listings show a film as a premiere when in fact it has been shown on another channel - worst culprits are Film 4/Channel 4!! Apologies for any errors - as Corabal says feel free to correct and we'll update accordingly!

awesome ..... ROBIN HOOD too

get's better and better

Just to let you guys know that the "A Christmas Carol" on C5 on December 22nd is not a premiere and is the ever popular Patrick Stewart version. And Race to Witch Mountain is not a premiere. It was first shown on New Year Holiday Monday (2nd January) on BBC1 this year.

Race To Witch Mountain was on last Christmas,I watched it on the I-player and if that's the Bug with Ashley Judd in,then that's been on Film4 a couple of times

I've got REC 2 down as 16th of December, would this be a premiere?

a day after the first one?
pretty much

Have channel 4 struck some kind of deal to show the cheap-o animated films like Space Chimps and Planet 51, I had the latter down as more likely to be a big christmas day BBC premier.
