Thanks for posting those square_eyes
Hopefully EastEnders will be moved to an earlier slot, 9:25pm is a bit late I think. Pleased to see Michael Mcintyre on Christmas Eve as opposed to Christmas Day, I always enjoy his shows but it changes it up a bit so is good to see.

I've already tried it. Do you know if there is any classic comedy scheduled for Christmas week on BBC Two?.

Yep, I also expect specials of To The Manor Born, Porridge, Hi-De-Hi!, Some Mothers Do Ave Em, Dads Army and Are You Being Served will be on. I still watch these even though I have the DVD's lol.

Yes it was and no it isn't.

We HAVE said Disney films are all over the channels. How often have we said this?

Same for me on BBC1, though I can see there is something for everyone there. For the first time in many years, I will have more to watch on ITV than BBC1 on Christmas Day, with Maigret and (perhaps for just a once only look) the revived Blankety Blank.

Bake Off on Christmas Day - wasn't expecting that! Surely that schedule won't stick though? Frozen isn't the right length, no BBC News, Bake Off looks far too early and EE looks a bit too late. Also CTM is probably too long as well?

ITV looks a bit stronger than usual actually. A strong Disney classic for the afternoon and a couple of new additions to primetime. Should do decently for them, so I think there schedule will stick and they'll let the BBC move theirs around. Looks like they can split EE as well if they want to with 6:30-7:30 freed up. I think the following amendments would be best:

15:10 BBC News
15:20 FILM: Frozen
17:00 Doctor Who
18:00 The Great British Bake Off
19:00 EastEnders
19:30 Strictly Come Dancing
20:45 Call The Midwife
22:00 EastEnders
22:30 Mrs Brown's Boys
23:10 Tracey Ullman's Sketch Show

The problem is the programme lengths make it hard to meet the ITV junction at 8:30pm but I guess that's their problem. I don't know if 10pm is too late for the 2nd EE as well? Either way either the BBC or ITV will have some problems with programmes getting slightly jumps on others.

Frozen is massive, you could put BGT against it and BGT wouldn't do well.


Frozen will "own" the slot.

Are two Disney films really going to go out against each other though. In this case Channel 4 to show finding Nemo and channel 5 to have lady and the tramp at the same time is well

I think any channel putting another Disney film against Frozen will be plain stupid, they will be burning it off,

Lion King or Nemo would do well at other times.

I got the same thing so I gave up, I think 7 days means you get the schedules until next week.
