No the double is the next one

Total Tv Guide has Mr and Mrs Claus skating - but a big increase in price since last years issue - £2.50

Hey that's good but expensive.

TV Times tend to do a soapy one don't they

No Tv Choice and Whats on Tv do - TV Times seems to go for Santa every year

This years Tv Choice has a Corrie couple Shane Wards character and some other female (sorry dont know who they are as I dont watch Corrie

That's what was said, David Attenborough, penultimate one...

The first person to find and reveal - take a bow son

Yes I like it too - best cover for many a year this one.

And, if you want to see it, here it is. Much like last year, it's available in Peterborough before its official release date.

Re the price - seeing as a weekly issue is £1.25, it just makes sense that it's £2.50 for a double issue.

This post doesn't need a spoiler tag - it needs a health warning
I remember when I was a kid - and the TV Times double issue was still under £3

Great Idea..............Love it

well better cover than I thought it was going to be
but in my humble judgment still not fated to be a classic

So now my reign as guess the cover champion has come to an end
who has won the cover competition for 2016 ?

@UKChristmasTV World of Sport Wresting special down for New Years Eve on ITV 4:00-6:00pm

The winner will be announced when Radio Times officially reveal the cover

You may wish to look up the word penultimate!

Yes, thank you.

I see the Xmas Issue Radio Times is due out on saturday! My little newsagent (actually the local Co-Op) still hasn't got the one due out yesterday. Perhaps they have some ulterior motive for hanging on to it 'out the back'.

Yes just been shopping and the David Attenborough one was Not out in Sainsbury's or Tescos, but was out with the Robbie Wliiams one in W H Smith.

Often it's lack of knowledge, the person allocated to Newspapers has one space for RT and keeps them out back.

Good slot and something so much better than ITV have had in the last few years is rpts and cheap filler. So the schedule reads I believe:

4pm World Of Sport Wrestling
6pm ITV News
6.30pm Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Prt2

Yes, as tonight they are secretly re printing all of them as Frozen so I can win!

Do you know what Whats On TV is this year? Its usually Kat and Aflie ad infinitum, and if its not them, its another EE picture.

My Dad loved Wrestling, he knew it was scripted and rigged, the " nasty" one, maybe dressed up, in a mask, would get ahead, maybe by a few moves, then the " Good guy" one who was exhausted and nearly out, would win in a sudden move.

It was enjoyable if you accepted it was all scripted like X Factor / Pantomime.

I see another HP film in peak time, the repeats are staying around longer than the Christmas Day Turkey.

Didn't 4pm on a Saturday used to be the original slot for Wrestling back in the old World of Sport days.

Slightly surprised it isn't being shown on New Years Day actually, after there Racing coverage

you beat me to it - thought they may keep it until then and follow the old World of Sport routine but then they never did it for 2 hours!

I don't think there is enough interest for it to rate well enough on NYD. I don't expect it'll be anything over 3m in that slot, but might post some good demos.
