See? Told ya there'd be Christmassy things to look forward to. x)

SO, yeah! Here we are, only 3 days left until Christmas so for those last 3 days, I'll be sharing this stuff from Christmas Eve/Day 2012 that I managed to archive before our old faithful TiVo got glitched out of working existence. I'm never quite sure when I'll stop doing Christmas uploads, so consider yourselves lucky this year. x)

CONTENTS!:
1) End of "The Rugrats Movie"
2) Promo for "The Snowman and the Snowdog" (This was the BIG EVENT of TV that Christmas, so expect to see...a *lot* involving this over these next few uploads. xD)
3) Channel 4 ident (For whatever reason, they only used Christmas idents every once in a while but hey.)
4) Start/End of "Famous Fred" (I grew up with this and would look forward to watching it early hours each Christmas Eve/Day...pity its so overlooked compared to anything adapted from Raymond Briggs but hey.)
5) Promo for "Gordan's Christmas Cookalong"
6) Channel 4 ident
7) Start/End of "Ivor the Invisible" (Is it just me who REALLY appreciates Channel 4's early morning rotations of animated one-off specials each Christmas? They really get me in the festive spirit.)
8) "Ivor the Invisible" on DVD sting (The URL redirects to All4 now so...guess ya can't do that now. o.o)
9) Promo for "The Snowman and the Snowdog"
10) Channel 4 ident (Special one made just for 2012 to promote...well, guess! You may recognise this from previous uploads archived from the same day, unforch I couldn't archive the breaks during "Muppet Christmas Carol" in HD-50p because I deleted that as soon as we had it on official Blu-ray so... @.@)
11) Channel 4 Coming Later bumper w/ "The Snowman and the Snowdog"
12) Promo for "8 Out of 10 Cats", "Peep Show" & "Friday Night Dinner" (BASICALLY, a night of Christmas comedy Channel 4 specials, as if you couldn't tell.)
13) Tesco ad
14) Next ad (Winter Sales!! Where we are, TV-wise, these ads've already started this year so...cool, NOW Christmas is definitely looming~)
15) B&Q ad
16) LG Smart Cinema 3D TV ad (Yep, once upon a time, this was the future of TV. The early 2010's were a very interesting time. x) )
17) NHS Dementia PIF
18) Channel 4 sting / More4 Christmas Promo (With the most "what the heck" use of a "Nightmare Before Christmas" song ever! You're welcome.)
19) Promo for "One Born Every Minute"
20) Channel 4 ident / "Christmas Carol: The Movie" Start (Decided to include a snippet of the beginning of this because it's been lost to the sands of time now, culturally. It's most known now for where "What If I" by Kate Winslet originated from. It's also mostly animated, this live-action beginning serving as a framing device. Kinda wanna check it out someday, though the "Muppet" adaptation will always be the closest to my heart.)
