Geo V Posted 12 December 2007 Posted 12 December 2007 Ive been away for a bit and have hardly seen UK TV in 10 weeks plus so have missed any promos for the TV Xmas programs. I`ll no doubt get some 50 page TV supplement fall on my lap from a newspaper soon but does anyone know of any Xmas specials lined-up? The Office, Royale Family, Only Fools, anything?! Whats must see TV this Xmas? Eastenders?

Geo V Posted 12 December 2007 Author Posted 12 December 2007 i hope they put the great escape and white Christmas on no doubt there will be an unexpected , death/ birth/ plane crash/ nuclear explosion , in one of the soaps thats about right. I`ll do the same thing I do every Christmas and search the paper to find National Lampoons Xmas Vacation and fail to find it so put the DVD of it I own in the DVD player anyway. I`ll then spend 20 minutes trying to work out why I didnt just put the DVD in the player in the first place.
