I think there are 600 hours of repeats on the BBC channels over the festive period.

So we pay our licence fee for this? Sometimes I seriously question whether it is worth it at all. I watch very little TV at all now - mostly the odd bit of Dave and the news. Radio 4 though saves it for me!

The extended version actually replaced the repeat of the regular show in its regular Monday evening slot.

Dave have also recently been re-running Angus Deaton era HIGNFY shows - which is stretching the viability even more. At least 2008 was only last year.
