Making CTM 90 minutes and pushing EE/MBB to 9:30-10:30 respectively is terrible schedling.. It doesn't even rate brilliantly on Christmas Day, so why they've opted to have it as the day's longest program is beyond me.

Maybe they're showing the News at 9.15pm and not havingan early evening news bulletin?

CTM was the 7th highest rated programme on Christmas Day last year and the 3rd highest in the consolidated ratings!

Seems likely as RT have now said Bake Off is on at 4.45pm, straight after Frozen, so clearly the BBC want to keep Frozen's momentum with a string of non-stop family hits.

4.45 The Great Christmas Bake Off
5.45 Doctor Who
6.45 Strictly Come Dancing
8.00 Call The Midwife

The Great Christmas Bake Off will air its first episode at 4:45pm on Christmas Day, straight after Frozen, on BBC1. Part one will then be repeated on Boxing Day morning at 11:30am before the channel airs the second part that evening at 7pm.
