Any good UK folk programmes this Xmas?

I wanted to type "Christmas" but ran out of letters?

My question is whether there are any good programmes on British radio or TV this Christmas on folksong or customs.

On Christmas day at 7.45-ish on Radio 3, during an interval of an opera, there is a programme called 'An American Christmas'. R3 did a programme of exactly the same name about 10 years ago, and it was excellent. I have hopes that this one will as good.
