JUST a few hours to go now before the big Christmas Day TV highlights.
Doctor Who kicks off this evening’s viewing for me.
Followed by the hour long Christmas night special of Coronation Street.
It should be a cracker after last night’s classic episode featuring the attack on Jed Stone.
With echoes back to the 1960s for long-time Weatherfield fans.
Regular readers will already know not to miss Wallace and Gromit’s A Matter Of Loaf And Death on BBC1 at 8.30pm.
And along with millions of others, I have high hopes for the return of The Royle Family.

I’m here all over the Christmas and New Year holiday.
So why not let me know your personal festive TV highlights and lowlights by leaving a comment below?
In the meantime…Happy Christmas.
