Keep BBC Sports Personality of the Year on a Sunday evening
Since time immemorial, BBC Sports Personality of the Year has been a Great British institution on a Sunday evening leading up to Christmas. It is considered by some to be as vital a part of the Yuletide festivities as mulled wine or Jesus. This year, without consulting the License Fee payers, Auntie has inexplicably decided to broadcast this flagship show on a Thursday evening. The Government should force the BBC to move the broadcast to an appropriate Sunday evening. If not, the BBC will doubtless continue its quest to spoil Christmas.
