Why in the middle of summer do we have Christmas Movies non stop on basic TV package, surely there are more films to pick from

I remember Johnny Walker, around 1972-1973 catching me out on radio 1.

He kept saying there will be an exclusive interview at 1 o'clock with Gladys Knight.

At 1pm came the apology, "sorry, we couldn't get Gladys Knight but here are the pips" .. pip .. pip ...pip

Movies 24 done the same last year, copying the Hallmark Channel in the US.

As is usual what the Americans do, we usually follow a while later.
