               episodes stripped across a week.

               Michael McIntyre’s Christmas Wheel features Danny Dyer, Zoe Ball and David
               Walliams competing with the help of seven celebrity experts to win money for their
               chosen charity. Blankety Blank, hosted by Bradley Walsh, has fast become a firm
               favourite with viewers and this special will feature more famous faces as contestants
               vie to not win the iconic cheque book and pen. Paddy McGuinness hosts a celebrity
               edition of I Can See Your Voice, featuring guest Leona Lewis alongside the Celebrity
               Investigators Jimmy Carr, Alison Hammond and Amanda Holden.

               For fans of Mrs Brown’s Boys there are two visits to Finglas this season. At
               Christmas, Agnes (Brendan O’Carroll) has become a non-singing member of the
               choir, and Dermot (Paddy Houlihan) and Buster (Danny O’Carroll) have organised a
               benefit night for a rather unusual cause; whilst New Year brings about fresh starts in
               the Brown house, and an unexpected visitor has a unique investment opportunity.


               Lee Mack’s Not Going Out sees Lee and Lucy (Sally Bretton) take a visit to the
               Panto, the star of which is Lucy’s teenage crush, Jason Donovan; and The Ghosts of
               Button House think Santa has stopped off early when Mike and Alison (Kiell Smith-
               Bynoe and Charlotte Ritchie) find a man sleeping in a tent in the grounds.


               Strictly Come Dancing, will see couples compete in some fab-yule-ous routines for
               the Christmas glitterball, alongside dazzling group numbers and performances from
               Jamie Cullum, Sheridan Smith and Gary Barlow.


               Three teams of famous faces – Tamzin Outhwaite and Jake Wood; Gareth Malone
               and Yolanda Brown; and Alex Brooker and Ellie Taylor, who each hope to win
               £10,000 for their chosen charity, join Marvin and Rochelle Humes in The Hit List; and
               Danny Dyer returns to host two seasonal episodes of The Wall vs Celebrities, with
               questions once again posed by Angela Rippon.

               Even though it’s Christmas, the tall tales don’t stop in Would I Lie For You? where
               Rob Brydon is joined by team captains David Mitchell and Lee Mack alongside Jim
               Broadbent, Rose Mattafeo, Angela Rippon and Ardal O’Hanlon.

               It’s Secret Santa time for the presenters of Top Gear – Driving Home For Christmas,
               as Paddy, Freddie and Chris each buy surprise cars for each other, before setting off
               a Christmas themed road trip from Bethlehem (in Wales…)

               As is traditional, a lone chorister of King’s College Cambridge sings the opening
               verse of Once in Royal David’s City, heralding the service of music, readings and
               prayer in Carols From Kings; and this year’s Midnight Mass will come from St.
               Chad’s Cathedral in Birmingham, presided over by the Archbishop of Birmingham,
               the Most Rev. Bernard Longley. The Christmas Day Eucharist will come live from the
               beautiful Coventry Cathedral, and there will be offerings from Songs of Praise,
               including Rev. Kate Bottley at a Christmas market held in the shadow of Lincoln
               Cathedral, and Katherine Jenkins will host a celebration of Christmas from
