- | + | It's the week before Christmas, and celebrity specials rule the house. [[Eggheads]] and [[Pointless]] are joined by '''[[University Challenge]]''' (BBC2, all week), '''[[Take Me Out]]''' (ITV, 7.45 Sat), '''[[Sion a Sian]]''' (S4C, 8.25 Thu), and '''[[Come Dine with Me]]''' (C4, 5pm weekdays). It's the grand final of '''[[Only Connect (2)|Only Connect]]''' (BBC4, 8.30 Mon) and '''[[Countdown]]''' (C4, 2.40 Friday), and - if the hype is to be believed - the final of the world as we know it. ITV is hedging its bets with '''''Text Santa''''' (Friday from 8), an entertainment gala (so if the world does end, it's with a smile) and charity appeal (so if it doesn't, some good will be done). Genius! | |

Revision as of 18:35, 20 December 2012
It's the week before Christmas, and celebrity specials rule the house. Eggheads and Pointless are joined by University Challenge (BBC2, all week), Take Me Out (ITV, 7.45 Sat), Sion a Sian (S4C, 8.25 Thu), and Come Dine with Me (C4, 5pm weekdays). It's the grand final of Only Connect (BBC4, 8.30 Mon) and Countdown (C4, 2.40 Friday), and - if the hype is to be believed - the final of the world as we know it. ITV is hedging its bets with Text Santa (Friday from 8), an entertainment gala (so if the world does end, it's with a smile) and charity appeal (so if it doesn't, some good will be done). Genius!
