Christmas TV isn’t what it used to be. Most channels don’t change their scheduling. And an Xmas episode of the same damn game show doesnt cut it.

Give us annimated and adventure films until 8pm you can watch with the kids, and then give us comedy/action/thriller block busters.

With the plethora of things to watch and the drift from mainstream TV in the UK, I think they've stopped throwing money at programmes and films over Christmas. ITV gave up years ago. I notice that the soaps are becoming less popular on Chritmas Day and many episodes didn't make it to the top ten (overnight figures). The BBC still manages to come out on top (specifically BBC1), but the numbers 2-3m are 20m shy of the Christmas Morcambe and Wise Shows of the 70s. Since there were only 3 channels to choose from, that is not surprising.

I watched nothing apart from a couple of news bulletins which told me the surprising story about the King going to church and Andrew not attending. 🙄
