Thread Title: Requesting BBC Two Schedule for January 5th

User1: CuriousCat123

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. 😊 As things are getting back to normal, I was wondering if anyone has the schedule for BBC Two on January 5th? I heard it’s supposed to go back to the pre-Christmas lineup. Any info would be appreciated!

Hey, @CuriousCat123! Yes, I believe BBC Two is reverting to its schedule from just before Christmas. Expect the usual morning documentaries and lifestyle shows, along with the afternoon educational programs. If I’m not mistaken, Spider-Man 2 is the movie scheduled for that night. Should be fun!

User3: FilmBuff91

@TVGuideFan Oh, great! I loved Spider-Man 2. Any idea what time it starts? Also, hoping to catch The Comedy Club right after. It’s always a great way to end the night with some laughs.

User4: NatureLover88

If I recall correctly, Spider-Man 2 should start around 8:30 PM-ish, similar to the slot they had for the original Spider-Man last month. And yes, @FilmBuff91, The Comedy Club typically follows the movie at around 10:30 PM. It’s a solid lineup!

User5: EarlyBird123

@CuriousCat123 and everyone else, if you’re interested in the morning shows, the day usually kicks off with an adventure documentary followed by Wildlife Wonders. The Chef’s Table is around breakfast time, so lots of good stuff if you’re up early!

User1: CuriousCat123

Thanks so much, everyone! This really helps. I can’t wait to catch Spider-Man 2 and The Comedy Club. Looks like a cozy night in for me. 😊 If anyone spots any changes, keep us updated!

User6: HistoryBuff44

@CuriousCat123 The History Hour should be in its usual slot around 7:30 PM too, right before the film. It’s a nice build-up to the evening’s movie. Enjoy the evening lineup!
