Yeah, I'm incredibly disappointed in this, and I think I'll email to tell them. I've been a subscriber for years, and getting the Dec 1 issue 5 days late and the Xmas issue 7 days late is an insult.

edited to add: the post above is a reassuring sign though

Maybe they are trying to fend off complaints and deliver quicker, as said the Robbie Wliiams one arrived today.

Thanks for the offer but the issues will turn up when they turn up, as long as I get them before the programmes actually start I'm not that bothered.

Changes to your Radio Times subscription mailing over Christmas and New Year

Dear Radio Times subscriber,



During the run-up to Christmas, the Radio Times team will be working hard to produce the Christmas double issue. To finish it on-time, some earlier issues of the magazine will be ready sooner than normal and will be mailed to you earlier than usual.

We thought it would be useful for you to know the new delivery dates for your copies of Radio Times over the festive period. The table below shows when your subscriber copy will be delivered.



TV and radio listings start dates

Issue on-sale date

Delivery due on or around

How this differs from the normal delivery date

Saturday 3rd December
26th November
29th November
Normal delivery date

Saturday 10th December
1st December
6th December
Normal delivery date

Christmas Double issue: Saturday 17th December
From 3rd December*

10th December
3 days earlier than usual

Saturday 31st December
23rd December
23rd December

Saturday 7th January

Normal delivery date

*The Christmas double issue will be on-sale nationwide from Wednesday 7th December but some copies will be on-sale from Saturday 3rd December in certain parts of the country. Your subscriber copy will arrive on or around Saturday 10th December – do not be concerned if you see the double issue in shops; your copy will be on its way.



If you have any questions regarding your Radio Times delivery, you can reach us in one of the following ways:

It's a pity they can't cut D.L.T. Bits out of it add voiceovers or subtitles ?
