    Great idea for a thread. I buy a tv guide once a year and its the xmas edition. I always buy the TV Times,think it's because my ma' always bought it.

    always wondered growing up why the rte guide dont invest in a few stronger staples......that cover never bloody lasted!

    ITV's xmas day looks shocking. Stick xfactor in and it would be like any saturday night!!

    Xmas night for me revolves around the Royle Family,can't wait to see a new episode. Stephens' night is Fr. Ted night on C4 so that'll keep me happy too.:)

    I too am a big Royle Family fan but the last two Christmas specials have been well below average, thankfully this special will have them remain in the house the entire time which should bring back some of the old magic! :)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,210 ✭✭✭dolphin city


    id say tubs will be telling us tonight when the RTE guide is out - they usually promote it on the late late show.

    god the soaps are on on Christmas Eve too - how am I going to watch them - Ill be in the pub - no time for repeat either cause they seem to be on on Christmas day as well. :p

    TV3 Player and RTé Player for the soaps repeat at some stage Christmas Day before the new episodes are on for Christmas Day! That's what I'll be doing as I also hope to be in the pub for Christmas Eve! :D

    What date is Enchanted on Tv on RTE ONE. You know the one with Amy Adams in it.
    It's on BBC One on the 26th December at 15:40 if that's any use to you? I'll keep checking for it on RTE as I assume you don't have BBC? All the listings aren't in yet.
