Last year was the first year since I don't know when that an evening film didn't air on Christmas Eve, and the schedule looked a lot weaker for it.

As Christmas Eve falls on a Saturday, you have to add the National Lottery Draw Live, somewhere
But going by the schedule on the top of the page, as there is never a late Local News on a Saturday, it could slip in there |

The Christmas night schedule is very 'samey' but if it works why change it and of course as yet we have no idea what ITV have replacing Downton
Ive gone for a 90 minute CTM as its been filmed abroad for first time |

Can I ask why everything is timed different to the normal showings?. What I mean is Pointless is 30 minutes long when it's normally 45-50 minutes, Eastenders is 40 minutes, Bake Off is 1 hour and 15 minutes. Just wondering that's all.
![]() I think you have the programming right though just the times might be off. As for Eastenders and Bake Off, well the former is often extended for Christmas eve (It was 35 minutes last year) so I've put it as 40 minutes, and the latter is extended because It's the last ever episode on BBC1, and It's a Christmas Special so I think it may well be extended from the usual 1 hour

I'm sure I read somewhere that the BBC1 schedule for Christmas evening was going to change this year. I'm sure I did. Perhaps it is wishful thinking on my part. I would be pretty disappointed if the BBC had the same line up as they have had for the past 5 or so years.

I didn't bother with the potatoes as the bag was very small for £3.95.
"Made by Lir Chocolates exclusively for Tesco Ireland, the New Potatoes are delicious milk chocolate ganache smothered in white chocolate… The festive sprouts are decorated milk chocolate ganache truffles." http://www.dailyedge.ie/tesco-chocol...76496-Sep2016/ The chocolate sprouts are truffles too. I live in Jersey, and they've done the novelty bags of 'Chocolate Jersey Royal Potatoes' for quite a while now, but I have to admit - even I, for a moment, thought "Hold on! Surely not..." and checked. Would be interesting to hear what percentage of those buying them empty them into a pan or a steamer only to watch them liquify in seconds
