Must be a shedload of Carry On... films on. I think ITV3 showed them all day last year on Christmas Day. There's something for everyone!!

Neither do I, normally. I noticed it with the copy I received yesterday. I hope it isn't going to be a regular thing!

So um - just checking - but currently my Digiguide says "A Christmas Carol" (The Disney film) is being shown by:
BBC2 on the 17th
Ch5 on the 20th
ITV3 on the 23rd and 24th and 27th
BBC1 on the 24th
Is this really correct?
