It has saved people from buying the TV magazine

Thread saved.

Who needs a TV guide.

Crikey I thought I was a miserable humbug until I read some of the comments in this thread ... have a little Chrimbo heat ... thanks for your effort

You're paying your license regardless of watching these films don't be a pedant.
Unless they are refunding you for not watching the film's your point is mute

This is useful , just copied and pasted to my phone. Sometimes reading the radio times just to find something to watch on a particular day can take too long. This is quick and easy.

I see you point you could say it costs £5.78 for the two week Christmas …I see you point you could say it costs £5.78 for the two week Christmas period, which still isn't free, but you don't get the option of a two week tv licence you only get the one year option.Read lessRead more

Well now hold on you’re not being quite petty enough. ITV, C4 & Five are on the list. So you need to take your hourly wage and divide that after tax to all the adverts you will be watching that pay for the programming on those channels

Also the BBC is bigger than its TV services so you also need to take the time you spend using the BBCs other services over the festive period and subtract that from the £5.78 you quoted as technically you’d be paying for those as well.

Brilliant idea - thanks OP

You voted cold because your own equipment has no HD, which is completely irrelevant to this actual deal? Idiot.

Oh dear, are you not getting the warm, fuzzy feeling you were after by 'helping' us all? By posting what can easily be found in a simple Google search with really very little effort?

These films are not free. You're either forced to pay for them by way of the TV licence or by being force fed inane advertisements every 20 minutes. That's a relevant issue. Many people, myself very mich inclused, resent this entirely.

Thanks for the effort. Hope you have a great Christmas. Ignore all the people on here who really need to get a life and can’t be grateful when someone does something nice.

This, exactly. Cold deal. Nothing here worth what we're forced to pay for it.

Basic instinct new years eve.Happy new year.

I really appreciate this neatly ordered list. Very much helps in planning for Xmas viewing. Cheers for the effort.
