No
Sound of Music ( not on BBC). No Mary Poppins ( not on BBC). Assume it's down to who has the rights to show films. |

No Zulu or Fiddler On The Roof. Both staples of past Christmases.

Pretty certain that with IMDb help I could name thousands of Christmas films that aren't on this year. Not sure I see the point though.

It was on something not so long back. Might have been Sky.

The question is, will ITV2 show Miss Congeniality 1 or 2 ?
Is the Pope a muslim ? F*** me, I swear they have actually shown it twice in one day. |

Even though I have it on dvd and have the Sky Movie channels....I traditionally watch it every year on terrestrial television at Christmas and have done since I was a little kid. |

Tomorrow Never Dies, Thursday 22nd, 9.00pm ITV4 Casino Royale, Friday 23rd, 9.00pm and Wednesday 28th, 9.00pm, both ITV2 Quantum Of Solace, Christmas Eve, 9.00pm and Thursday 28th, 8.00pm, both ITV2 Skyfall, Tuesday 27th, 9.00pm and New Years Day, 8.00pm, both ITV2 Spectre, Christmas Eve, Sky Action, 8.35am and 8.00pm, Boxing Day at 1.10pm and 9.00pm on Sky Hits, and Tuesday 27th 11.00am and 8.00pm on Sky Greats. As to ITV showing films twice in one day, Love Actually is on ITV at 11.00pm Christmas Eve, so spills over into Boxing Day when it's on ITV2 at 9.00pm, or you can catch it again on ITV2 on Friday 30th at 9.00pm. |
