Default Just got my Christmas edition of the Radio Times...
£4.90.
That's an increase of 40P since last year. Shocking for a magazine - but I do enjoy flicking through and planning my t.v schedule...

A lot of repeats, as usual like "The Wizard of Oz" (1939) but there's some good stuff on. The big Christmas day film on the BBC is the most recent version of "The Jungle Book". If anyone's not watch it, you should. I really enjoyed it. Bugger all on ITV except for repeats.

I don't know about you guys but I always find the lead up to Christmas is far better than the day itself...then again, does anybody really watch T.V on Christmas day except for the Queen?

I always watch the Christmas Top of the pops on BBC1 as well as the Queen's speech . By the time it gets to the evening it's usually flicking through channels .

Last year watched Home Alone , that's always a Christmas movie they put on TV .

No, I'm far too tight fisted to buy both. I nearly fell through the floor when I saw the price of Radio Times. Do you buy both, Kaz?

Bought it on Friday if I’d noticed the price I would have left it after me

Me too! I didn't notice the price till I got to the till with a couple of other bits. I thought it was more than I expected at the till... Still, it's a tradition.

It's pretty much the only time I ever buy it, I like to flick through and highlight a load of stuff (inc. endless repeats of Family Guy/American Dad I like the synopsis of, and then don't end up watching)

I swear that's like the third year in a row they've used that front cover though

Got my what's on TV christmas guide today. Always a tradition to highlight what I'm going to watch and at 1 pound 20p you can't complain. However I will probably not get round to watching most of it

Don't bother anymore, I get my TV guide on me sky.

Used to love it when I was younger though, getting excited by the films that was on.Nowadays we have great films whenever we want, but in them days it was exciting to get a classic film on the telly.

I will rely on my Radio Times online listings like I do every other day.
You can plan ahead as well, you don’t get the same feel as the magazine I suppose, but it does me.
