Is it just me or does the fact that standing orders set to trigger on 26 December don't because the bank is not open.

So automatic payments are not really automatic. Does someone sit at a computer approving them?

No one sits approving them, but transactions are processed in huge batches and that often requires human oversight.
 
I had a S/O due to go out on the 25th of December, it did not process until today.

I expect the next one on the 1st of January not to go till the 2nd.
 
The computer has a bank holiday off when it comes to transferring my wages
