Xmas 2014: More than half of TV, repeats

[Still Waters]

So those hoping to find familiar favourite on their television sets this year will be in for a treat, as around 60 per cent of programming across the four main channels are repeats.

To be honest i don't watch much TV these days and even less over the Christmas. with the likes of BBCiplayer and streaming services over the internet im sure most people can keep themselves entertained.

What surprises me is that they are not just screening 8 hour specials of "Eastenders" - their usual Lazy programming choice!!
