Shoppers who are worried about viewing clashes over the days after Christmas are being handed an affordable lifeline from Boxing Day. Instead of having to watch programmes on an old portable 4:3 format TV in the spare room, people who draw the short straw will be able to buy an HD-ready widescreen TV for £50.
Asda is stocking a Venturer 15.6 LED TV from Boxing Day. The TV will be available in-store and online.
Michael Arnott, HDTV Buyer, said: This is an astonishing deal and were delighted to be able to bring HD-ready TV to our customers at such an amazing price. Were also glad to be doing our bit to support domestic harmony this Christmas.
A straw poll of shoppers found that the top Christmas holiday clashes are:
1. Great Expectations (BBC1) 9:00pm -10:00pm vs Big Fat Quiz of the Year (Channel 4) 9:00pm - 11:05pm Tuesday 27th December
2. Eastenders (BBC1) 7:00pm - 8:10pm vs Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (ITV1) 7:00pm - 9:45pm New Years Day
3. King Kong (ITV1) 10:30pm - 11:30pm vs Tropic Thunder (BBC1) 10:45pm - 12:25pm Tuesday 27th December
4. Bear's Wild Weekend with Jonathan Ross (Channel 4) 9:00pm - 10:00pm vs Absolutely Fabulous (BBC1) 9:40 pm - 10:10pm New Year's Day
5. Frozen Planet Christmas Special (BBC1) 7:00pm - 8:00pm vs Come Dine with Me: Celebrity Christmas Special 7:30pm - 8:00pm Wednesday 28th December
6. Great Expectations (BBC1) 9:00pm - 10:00pm vs Paddy's 2011 Show and Telly (ITV1) 9:00pm - 10:00pm Thursday 29th December
Frozen Planet Vs Come Dine with Me? Now that's not a fair fight!
