Living TV to screen Jade wedding special

LONDON - Living TV will air its exclusive footage of Jade Goody's wedding in two parts at 9pm-10pm on Wednesday March 11 and Thursday March 12.

The first part will show Jade preparing for the wedding while the big day itself will be the focus of the second instalment.

Last Thursday Living achieved its highest ratings to date when 709,000 viewers watched a documentary following her life shortly before she went onto India's version of 'Big Brother' last August. This made it the top rated non-terrestrial channel on Freeview in the 9pm-10pm slot.

The massive interest in the terminally reality TV star's wedding is likely to help Living repeat that feat.

Subject to scheduling changes, the first part of the wedding special is expected to go up against the last part of 'Minder' on Five, 'Grand Designs' on Channel 4, 'Taggart' on ITV1, 'Gossip Girl' on ITV2, 'Sex and the City' on Fiver and 'The Truman Show' film on Sky1.

The second part will compete with ITV1's Billy Connolly travelogue, a Channel 4 documentary, Five's Thursday night film, ITV2's 'Paris Hilton's British Best Friend', Fiver's 'Extraordinary People: Boys Joined at the Head' and Sky1's 'Bones'.
