Yay! It's here, the Screen Babble Christmas TV and streaming preview. Kelly, Benji and Steven will take you through the best of film and TV that will be coming to the small and big screens in the coming weeks.
First up Steven talks films including, The Heist Before Christmas (Sky Max, date tbc), It's a Wonderful Knife (Amazon Prime) and one of the most hotly anticipated films of the year, Wonka (cinemas from 8 December).

Both BBC productions have not yet had their broadcast dates announced but will air in and around Christmas. The team will update you on Weekend Watch once dates are confirmed.
Another great family watch this year is Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget which is coming to Netflix on December 15.

Benji tells us all about these two very different programmes as well as the Dr Who Christmas Special which is also hotly anticipated when we may or may not see the Dr transform into his new guise.
Finally, Kelly takes us through a Chrismtas institution - the soaps and the big story lines they run over the Christmas period and in particular on Christmas day.
