Zapsmart: Music on TV and Radio today

9.25am ITV - Christmas Cooks Challenge
Alex James is doing the judging. It just makes grabbing your breakfast from a dumpster look dignified

11.15am Channel 4 - Shooting Cheryl Cole
I think this is a fluffy promo programme, but given this is the channel that brought us the Execution of Gary Glitter, you can't be sure

11.50am BBC2 - South Pacific
Bali Hi, Bali Hi...

8.00 Sky Arts 1 - Songbook
Ray Davies. Did he mention he's got a Christmas single out?

10.30 BBC4 - Christmas Session: Fire And Ice
Including The Unthanks and Thea Gilmore, recorded at Shoreditch Town Hall

11.05 Five - Simon Cowell: Where Did It All Go Right?
Pinching the title of Andrew Collins' book is probably the first crime of this programme. It features Piers Morgan. What a miserable way to welcome Christmas.

11.15 Radio 3 - Late Junction
This is a better way to spend Christmas Eve, including a Christmas soundscape pulled together by Debs Newbold, Mary Hampton and Dave Price
