The sexed-up return of BBC1's Sherlock has got the Mail hot under the collar, and judging by responses to the Guardian's review, it had viewers divided too.
Some viewers were left shivering their timbers after Sky meddled with Robert Louis Stevenson's ending in Treasure Island – did the twist spoil the show for you?
Among other festive blockbusters, BBC1's Great Expectations got a warm critical reaction; Mark Lawson hailed ITV1's Downton Abbey Christmas special as a return to form. BBC1's Doctor Who was sentimental and full of plot holes but, as Dan Martin said, it hit the perfect note for Christmas.
For me, BBC1's Ab Fab Christmas special was a treat; others have said David Jason's The Royal Bodyguard on the same channel was an utter turkey.
But what were your festive TV highs and lows? Did you enjoy Great Expectations or the return of Sherlock and Downton Abbey? Or did you find solace in corners of the schedule like BBC4's Christmas Top of the Pops reruns or the World Darts Championships on Sky Sports? Give us your thoughts below.
