I know from my research, that ITV always want to be seen to be caring about Christmas Day, when in reality they don't. And so, their schedule reflects that.
ITV this year did reasonably well but I do feel with no big soap plot lines for Emmerdale and Corrie, that was the achilles heel for their schedule. If Emmerdale and Corrie had a big event on Christmas Day, that would prove decent competition to BBC One, however Emmerdale and Corrie this Christmas night people have said just felt like a regular episode.
