Ive looked through the line up quickly and im not impressed at whats on over the holidays but I may have missed something good .


I miss the fools and horses specials (not the repeats) Blackadder ect its good to have something highlighted to see .

What are you guys looking forward to seeing and when you see it was it all you thought it would be ?

So far all im looking forward to is Extras

The only thing that has caught my eye is the Dr Who christmas special

[Starburst]

Same here.
Dr Who is one of the shows I watch during any of the other 51 weeks so looking forward to the Kylie fest, lets hope it's better than last years effort.


I think in my case is that I hardly watch UK productions during the year so a christmas special is of no interest either and the US imports I do like take breaks over xmas anyway and any seasonal stories have already been done or won't turn up on UK telly till Spring

Casino Royale in HD is the christmas highlight and I'll watch the first really good HD broadcast of Hogfather as well (last time SKY1HD was sub-standard), it really doesn't matter anymore that it's christmas not like it did when we only had 3 or 4 channels

its not looking good lol

Ill watch Casino Royale in HD as well really liked the film be nice to see it in its glory.

Whats Hogfather like ? I sky + them last year but reports seemed luke warm and as they were HD they took up a lot of hard drive so i deleted them .

Worth giving it a go ?

Not one of Pratchet's best novels but it's pretty much standalone and christmas themed hence the decision to use it. A fan of the Discworld won't be impressed but for £6 Million SKY got a well made mini-series which pulled in an impressive audience for SKY1.
Certainly give it a go as it warms up a bit after a bit of a slow start and it may be better if you haven't read the novel but that's not unusual is it
