Of all the printed TV guides/listings/magazines, which is the most comprehensive? I ask because - having bought a variety of them - each seems to miss some of the channels we occasionally watch.

I but the cheapest one-42p (TV Choice I think). I wish they still had radio listings in
I should think it's impossible to get one with all the listings, there are hundreds of channels! I like Tv choice and the weekend mag in the saturday
daily mail is pretty good.

Factor, the one in front of me right now is called Total TV Guide. It cost £1.00 but DOES have radio listings for about a dozen channels.

I didn't expect to get a guide with them ALL, Cupid, just the guide with the MOST!
I don't have Sky, I have Freeview and I use the Saturday Daily Mail TV Guide which is very clear.
I use this on line listing which seems to be pretty comprehensive. If you scroll down to the bottom of the listings you can add any extra channel you wish and there seems to be an awful lot if them.

I like onthebox.com I like the layout of it. You can replace listed channels as well.
What's wrong with the EPG - with so many channels to choose you must have one.
Still like Radio Times

Thanks for your answers, folks, but several of you seem to have overlooked my request for (quote) "printed" guides. I can't be bothered with the faffing around, cursor flashing to and fro and up and down, involved with online guides. Yes, I know I have to go from page to page and top to bottom with a magazine, but that's what I want to do.
What I had hoped was that someone who gets the Radio Times would tell me it covers, say, 34 channels whilst someone else would tell me TV Choice covers 37 channels and Total TV Guide covers 41 channels. The "winner" might then be the one that covers, say, 48 channels.

Again, thanks for your efforts on my behalf.
TV & Satellite Week says on the front that it has "more channels than any other TV mag!"
It is quite expensive (£1.40) but I get it on subscription so it works out a lot cheaper.
I'm with Buttons, TV & Satellite Week is by far the best and most comprehensive.

"More channels than any other TV mag."
Right, TV & Satellite Week it is this time and until something with even more turns up. Thanks for that suggestion, which seems to fit the bill exactly.
I used to buy TV Choice, but have recently switched to Whats On TV, as this has radio programmes and Challenge TV listings.
Have a look at Radio Times while you're there. I've just counted 70 channels per day - and not just the bare bones, but details the others miss. And lots of radio coverage as well.
