Some of the latest information about this years Christmas TV is available here: sites.google.com/site/ukchristmastv/latest-tv-news-christmas-2010

Need to copy/paste it into your browsers as I can't post links yet.

Apparently this years Royale Family special has been axed? Looking forward to Strictly Cinderella and Dr Who though!

    Thanks Tony.

    BTW, the link says 2010. (In which case, I can tell you that Dr Who is hugely enjoyable! :D) Did they mean 2011?

    yeah, it seems that they haven't updated the number for this year. The main page here is:

    sites.google.com/site/ukchristmastv/ and it says to click there for '11 so must just be the link :)

    Can't say I'm disapointed about the Royle Family Special as I've only enjoyed the New Sofa one at Dave and Denise's

    Love Big Fat Quiz Of The Year, 8 out of 10 Cats, Top Gear, Ab Fab, Outnumbered, Mock The Week etc though. Can't wait :D

    The Sunday Star will have Christmas TV listings in.

    Hopefully Saturday's papers will have some too, not sure.

    Next telly books for the 10th-16th are out on the 1st. Then I do believe there'll be one more and the double issue will start Christmas Eve and go through to the 7th. It's a bit of a weird placement really, if it starts on the 17th then it misses New Years Day - but if it starts Christmas Eve it's a bit late as it goes into the first week of Jan :) :xmastree:

    A few double issue telly books are out (in our newsagent anyway) - total tv (the best for freeview apparently) being one of them.


    ETA: It does miss out NYD so you'll need to get one later to cover that too. The one to cover NYD is out on the 23rd.

    Just for a bit of contrast, I am looking forward to the bug fat gypsy christmas, and the new adaptation of the borrowers!

    Well we got our RT Christmas Issue (I think) on Tuesday.

    ladymarmalade - I've already marked BFG Christmas to record the series.

    Another guilty pleasure is Kirstie's Handmade Christmas :o What about you?
