Well, they wouldn't be wrong.
How many of these "new" shows just happen to air at Christmas? Call The Midwife, Blankety Blank etc - all programmes where regular series have only just finished up or are starting again soon. Christmas Special? They don't feel special. More like leftovers. Mrs Brown's Boys is seen as a comedic situation the BBC can't get out of.
