    I always buy it but don't pay much attention to it as I seem to know when the things I really want to watch are on.
    Sky+ will make it easier this year :)

    Yep another xmas tv guide geek here. We're away for a few days over the silly season so I need to make some space and load up the V+ box for when we get back. So we can watch all the good bits at our leisure

    Every Christmas I buy the radio times and highlight all the telly I'm going to watch - sad I know but I love it!!!!!!! Anyone know when the guides come out? I thought they'd be around by now!:D :D

    I've done the highlighting thing before too!

    I bought 2 TV Times today , one for next week (week commencing 8/12) and one for week 15/12 to 21/12. They usually do a double edition at Christmas so i'm surprised that they haven't this year :confused:
    Same old same old since 2008

    Oh I love the Christmas Tv guide and scour it for ages before the big day just to make sure I dont miss anything!I am a terminally sad person when it comes to Christmas viewing because I want to watch Jason and the Argonauts,White Christmas and The Great Escape because to me Christmas viewing just wouldnt be the same without them

  • Yep, out in London tomorrow, nationwide on the 12th, I can't wait - I too read every single line (and even make a list from it...sad but part of Christmas!). The double edition will cover Dec 22nd - Jan 4th so I might well buy the one before it too as I like a good bit of the Christmas run up. Finding Nemo will be the Christmas Day BBc1 'big film' which is kind of a shame as my 3 year old watches it as often as I let him so it's not going to feel that Christmassy - looking forward to the Doctor Who though! (and series 2 of Torchwood starts late January & I can't wait for that either!)

    Yay! Merry Christmas everyone!

    Why is it out in london tomorow and not the rest of the country? seems a bit odd. i love getting the guide and marking what to watch too, have done it since i was a kid although its never as good as it was then. i am even sadder because when i pull out my decorations at the bottom of one of the boxes there are the last 6 years radiotimes lol :o

    That really made me laugh and I am going to copy your idea and make this a new tradition in our house especially as it's our first year at home! (previously gone to rellies and have to watch what they want and don't normally get a tv guide!)

    Thank you Charlotte!
