The RTE Guide has confirmed it has pulled its recent Christmas competition due to a publication error.
Readers of the TV listings magazine were asked to correctly identify what day of the week Christmas Day falls on this year: Monday, Wednesday or Saturday as part of a festive competition. The prize on offer was a two night hotel stay in Carton House in Co Kildare, as well as perks including an all-inclusive dinner and a spa treatment.
However, hopes of winning were dashed after readers pointed out that Christmas Day falls on Sunday this year, which did not feature as an answer option. The realisation quickly dawned on people after the festive guide was released on Monday.
